Just got this back from the city. I have asked for a copy of the notification to the PD.
It's almost identical to what was sent out earlier last year. I've also asked for an ETA since it is taking so long....
I am working on a reorganization of Title 11 of the Kirkland Municipal Code. As part of the reorganization, I am addressing the issue you have identified. Due to the size of the reorganization project, it will be some time before my work is complete, reviewed by affected departments (such as the Police and the Prosecutor) and presented to the City Council. In the meantime, I have advised the Police Department of the pre-emption issues and that KMC Section 11.41.060 should not be enforced to the extent it is inconsistent with state law.
Sincerely,
Oskar Rey
Assistant City Attorney
