A RESOLUTION related to the City Light Department ("City Light"); adopting revised procedures for the disposition of surplus properties under the jurisdiction of City Light.

WHEREAS, in January of 2013, the City Council adopted policies and procedures in Resolution 31424 to provide for an orderly, transparent, and inclusive process for determining the appropriate disposition of properties owned by Seattle City Light ("City Light") deemed surplus to the department's needs; and
