9.02.710 Public facility – Illegal activity – Exclusion. Revised 3/24 Amended Ord. 4500

A. The city council finds that, from time to time, the right of the general public to enjoy public facilities provided by the city is infringed upon by persons who engage in disruptive, unsafe, or otherwise prohibited activity at the public facilities. This behavior is often engaged in by a comparatively small number of repeat offenders. The city council further finds that the right of persons who engage in such activities to remain at or frequent public facilities is outweighed by the right of law-abiding citizens to use such facilities without the interference or fear of the illegal activity of others.

B. Whenever a police officer has probable cause to believe that a person has committed any act set forth in subsection (F) of this section on or at any public facility as described in subsection (G) of this section, the officer may, by written order, exclude that person from entering the public facility where the act was committed; provided, further, that if the public facility where the act was committed is part of a public facility assemblage as described in subsection (H) of this section, the officer may, by written order, exclude that person from entering all public facilities within that assemblage.

C. If the offender:

1. Has not been issued an exclusion notice within one year prior to the violation or the current violation is not a felony violation, a weapon violation, or a violation involving an act of violence or threat of violence, then the officer may exclude the offender from the public facility or public facility assemblage in which the current violation occurred for a period of 45 days from the date of the exclusion notice.

2. Has been issued an exclusion notice within the one year prior to the current violation or the current violation is a felony violation, a weapon violation, or a violation involving an act of violence or threat of violence, then the officer may exclude the offender from the public facility or public facility assemblage in which the current violation occurred for a period of 90 days from the date of the exclusion notice.

3. Has been issued two or more exclusion notices from the same public facility or public facility assemblage in which the current violation has occurred within the one year prior to the current violation, then the officer may exclude the offender from the public facility or public facility assemblage in which the current violation occurred for a period of 364 days from the date of the exclusion notice.

4. Has been issued two or more exclusion notices within the one year prior to the current violation and, in combination, the current violation and those prior violations did not occur at the same public facility or within the same public facility assemblage, or if the offender has been issued one exclusion notice based on a felony violation, a weapon violation, or a violation involving an act of violence or threat of violence within the one year prior to the current violation, then the officer may exclude the offender from all public facilities for a period of 364 days from the date of the exclusion notice.

D. The exclusion notice shall be in writing and shall contain the date of issuance, shall specify the duration and location of exclusion, and shall be signed by the issuing officer. A warning of the consequences for failure to comply with the exclusion notice, as well as procedures for seeking review of the exclusion, shall be contained within the exclusion notice.

E. The person subject to the exclusion notice shall have the right to a hearing to seek the modification or rescission of the exclusion. For the purposes of exclusion modification or rescission hearings, the city’s hearing officer shall be the city of Kent’s director of parks, recreation, and community services or his/her designee, or the person acting in the position of the director or designee in his/her absence.

1. A request for hearing shall be in writing and shall be accompanied by a copy of the exclusion notice for which the hearing is sought. The request shall contain the address of the offender, and it shall be the responsibility of the offender to notify the hearing officer of any change of address. The hearing shall occur and a decision be rendered within 10 business days after the city’s hearing officer receives the request for hearing. Notice of the hearing shall be effective upon the third business day after placement of the notice in the mail to the address provided by the offender.

2. The parties to the hearing shall be the city and the offender. At the hearing, the violation that forms the basis for the exclusion notice must be proved by a preponderance of the evidence in order to uphold the exclusion. The offender need not be charged with a crime or civil infraction in a court of law, and need not be convicted or found to have committed the alleged violation in a court of law for the exclusion to be upheld. The city’s hearing officer shall consider the exclusion notice and a sworn report or a declaration made under penalty of perjury as authorized by RCW 9A.72.010, written by the police officer who issued the exclusion notice, without further evidentiary foundation. Both the city and the offender may submit physical or written evidence, or call witnesses to testify. The city’s hearing officer may consider information and evidence that would not be admissible in a court of law under the evidence rules but which the hearing officer considers relevant and trustworthy. Each party shall be responsible for securing the attendance of any witnesses it intends to call to testify.

3. If the violation is proved, the exclusion notice shall be upheld; however, upon good cause shown, the city’s hearing officer may shorten the duration of the exclusion. If the violation is not proved by a preponderance of the evidence the city’s hearing officer shall rescind the exclusion. If an exclusion is rescinded, it shall not be considered a prior exclusion for the purposes of subsection (C) of this section.

4. The decision of the city’s hearing officer is final. An offender seeking judicial review of a decision of the city’s hearing officer shall file an appeal or an application for a writ of review in the King County superior court within 14 days of the date of the decision.

5. The exclusion shall remain effective during the pendency of any administrative or judicial proceeding.

6. The determination of the city’s hearing officer shall not have any collateral estoppel effect on a subsequent criminal prosecution or civil proceeding and shall not preclude litigation of those same facts in a subsequent criminal prosecution or civil proceeding.

F. An act which may result in the issuance of a written order excluding a person from a public facility or public facility assemblage may consist of any of the following when committed on or at a public facility:

1. Any act that qualifies as a felony crime;

2. Any act that qualifies as a gross misdemeanor or misdemeanor crime, excluding all traffic offenses except for violations of RCW 46.61.500, 46.61.502, 46.61.503, 46.61.504, and 46.61.525;

These high risk prostitution areas attract prostitutes, persons who patronize prostitutes, and those who promote prostitution. Many of these areas extend beyond the jurisdiction of the city of Kent, and the problem is present in the surrounding cities of Federal Way, Des Moines, SeaTac, Tukwila, and Renton. These surrounding cities have enacted similar ordinances as a tool to combat the prostitution problem. Due to the volume of persons involved in the prostitution trade, adjacent private property owners suffer economic loss due to trash, human waste, and lost business. Community members suffer from traffic congestion and an increased risk to public health and safety. The high risk prostitution areas set forth in subsection (E) of this section suffer a much higher incidence of prostitution-related crimes than other areas of the city.

B. Stay out of areas of prostitution orders, hereinafter known as “SOAP” orders, may be issued by the Kent municipal court to anyone charged with prostitution, permitting prostitution, prostitution loitering, or patronizing a prostitute under this chapter or Chapter 9A.88 RCW as a condition of pretrial release.

C. SOAP orders may be issued by the Kent municipal court to anyone convicted of prostitution, permitting prostitution, prostitution loitering, or patronizing a prostitute under this chapter or Chapter 9A.88 RCW as a condition of probation.

D. Whenever a police officer shall have probable cause to believe that a person has received a SOAP order as a condition of pretrial release or of probation and in the officer’s presence is seen violating or failing to comply with any requirement or restriction imposed by the court as a condition of such pretrial release or probation, such officer may arrest the violator without warrant or other process for violation of the SOAP order and bring such person before the court issuing the order.

E. The SOAP order shall warn the person named in the order to stay out of the following “high risk prostitution areas”:

1. Pacific Highway South from the south side of South 272nd Street to State Route 516 (also known as Kent-Des Moines Road), including all adjacent businesses.

2. 30th Avenue South from South 240th Street to State Route 516 (also known as Kent-Des Moines Road), including all adjacent businesses.

3. South 240th Street from the 2700 block through the 3200 block, including all adjacent businesses.

4. Central Avenue North/84th Avenue South from Novak Lane to South 222nd Street, including all adjacent businesses.

5. 83rd Avenue South from South 228th Street to South 224th Street, including all adjacent businesses.

F. A person is deemed to have notice of the SOAP order when:

1. The signature of the person named in the order, or the signature of his or her attorney, is affixed to the bottom of the order, signifying that he or she has read the order and has knowledge of the contents of the order; or

2. The order recites that the person named in the order or the person’s attorney appeared in person before the court.

G. The written SOAP order shall contain the court’s directives and shall bear the legend: “Violation of this order is a criminal offense under Ch. 9.02 KCC and will subject the violator to arrest.”

H. Whenever a SOAP order is issued under this section, and the person named in the order knows of the order, a violation of the provisions of the order is a misdemeanor and shall be punishable by a fine of not more than $1,000 or imprisonment for not more than 90 days, or both such fine and imprisonment.

I. Pursuant to Section 1(1)(b) of Engrossed Substitute House Bill 1362 (Laws of 2009, ch. 387 § 1), the high risk prostitution areas identified in subsection (E) of this section are the areas where vehicles are subject to impoundment for a suspected violation of patronizing a prostitute, promoting prostitution in the first degree, promoting prostitution in the second degree, promoting travel for prostitution, commercial sexual abuse of a minor, promoting commercial sexual abuse of a minor, or promoting travel for commercial sexual abuse of a minor.
