This bill establishes a new section in chapter 71A.12 RCW that mandates the use of the King County classification system to determine provider rates for community residential service businesses in Snohomish County. The bill defines "provider rate" as the rate for each tier specific to county categories, ensuring that the rates reflect the classification system used in King County.
Additionally, the bill includes a provision stating that if specific funding for its implementation is not allocated by June 30, 2025, in the omnibus appropriations act, the act will become null and void. This ensures that the bill's provisions are contingent upon the availability of funding, thereby linking its effectiveness to the state budget process.
