2. Write-offs referred to collection have been in arrears for a given number
of days and exceed minimum values that move them out of the direct write off
category.

Presentation
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No. 4451, awarding Bid No.19043 for
the Court Street & Road 68 Intersection Improvements Project to Ellison
Earthworks, LLC.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
Proposed Bid Award: $2,606,987.97
Funded through:
Surface Transportation Block Group Program (Federal Grant): $2,034,552.00
Transportation Improvement Board (State Grant): $1,600,000.00
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
Road 68 serves as a vital north-south arterial route, facilitating significant traffic
flow within the City and Franklin County. Similarly, Court Street acts as an
east-west arterial corridor, linking residential sectors with the City's major
commercial districts. According to the 2020 Local Road Safety Plan, this
intersection is identified as a critical area for safety improvements due to its
high collision frequency and nature.
The proposed project encompasses improvements on W. Court Street from N.
66th Place to Hilbert Lane and on Road 68, extending approximately 350 feet
north and south of the intersection. This area has become increasingly
Page 22 of 139
hazardous and necessitates enhancements, partly due to rising Average Daily
Traffic (ADT) resulting from local development, which has introduced more
vehicles into the intersection. Plans include transforming this junction into a
roundabout and installing bike lanes.
Additionally, the project will incorporate infrastructure upgrades such as sewer
line extensions to the east and north, stormwater management improvements,
and the installation of curb and gutter systems, curb ramps, a water main
extension, and additional street lighting.
These initiatives are in alignment with the Council's commitment to the
Complete Streets ordinance, aiming to enhance safety across all transportation
modes and minimize the occurrence of collisions.
V. DISCUSSION:
The Project was advertised for bids on April 10 and April 17, 2024. On May 2,
2024, bids were publicly opened at 2:00 p.m. As part of the competitive formal
bid processes, a total of three (3) bids were received. The lowest responsive
bid was submitted by Ellison Earthwork, LLC of Richland, WA in the amount of
$2,606,987.97. The Engineer's Estimate is $2,723,183.00.

Meeting: 5/20/24
FROM: Darcy Buckley, Finance Director
Finance
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 4452 - Approving Collection Services with Washington
Collectors Tri-Cities, Inc. Collection Agency Contract
I. REFERENCE(S):
Resolution
Contract
Presentation
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: City the authorizing 4452, No. to approve move I Resolution
Manager to execute a collection agency contract with Washington Collectors
Tri-Cities Inc., for collection services.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
The contract stipulates that the City is entitled to the full principal amount, as
well as a portion of the interest earned from payments. The collection agency's
fees are set at 40% of the account value assigned to them and are payable to
the agency. Any accrued interest income is to be split equally between the
collection agency and the City.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
For many years, the City has contracted Washington Collectors Tri-Cities Inc.,
a local Pasco company, to manage the collection of delinquent accounts and
other outstanding bills. These delinquencies are most commonly associated
with ambulance transport billings, code enforcement related penalties and
abatement charges, and various enforcement fees by the Municipal Court.
Most recently, the City entered into a five-year agreement with Washington
Collectors Tri-Cities Inc., spanning from 2018 to 2022, to handle collections for
both the Municipal Court and the Finance Department.
Page 34 of 139
City staff has collaborated with Washington Collectors Tri-Cities Inc. to revise
and clarify the language and procedures of the contract. State law mandates
that collection agencies adhere to specific procedures. This contract has been
amended maintain to changes legislative Pasco with comply to recent
Municipal Court jurisdiction over compromise settlements.
V. DISCUSSION:
Finance Director Buckley delivered a concise presentation on various billing
types and processes to the Council during the May 13th Workshop. The
discussion on May 13th also included several questions related to billing,
delinquencies, and collection practices. The responses to these questions,
along with additional relevant information, are detailed below:
1. What value constitutes a “small balance”?
Combined service utility bill - $20.00
Cemetery - $10.00
Ambulance Transport - $10.00
Other Miscellaneous - $10.00
Code Enforcement – no limit established.
Municipal Court – Determined case by case at judge discretion
2. Important notes about accounts and delinquency.
Combined Utilities typically remits only those accounts for collection that
are final and closed if they are delinquent. An exception may occur for
accounts without water service. Usually, if there is an issue with bill
collection, water service is disconnected, which often leads to payment
for accounts with active services.
For cemetery services, 50% of the outstanding bill is required to be paid
before the provision of burial services. The remaining 50% is subject to
potential delinquency.
The average cost for an ambulance transport, according to the most
recent Ground Emergency Medical Transport Cost Report, is $4,372. In
2024, Pasco residents are charged $1,170, while non-residents pay
$1,980. Following the last rate increase in 2022, the transport fees are
set to rise again in 2025. To meet federal regulations, adjustments to
charges must align with Medicare and Medicaid requirements, which
include discounts. For instance, the discount given to patients for March
2024 was about 45% of the billed revenues. Consequently, from a cost
of $4,372, the actual revenue collected was $643.50. Future steps to
increase the transport rate, as advised by the Council, may reduce the
discrepancy between the cost of transport and the revenue collected.
Page 35 of 139
Nonetheless, the discounts for Medicare and Medicaid are fixed and
cannot be altered.
Code Enforcement – Upon delinquency, a lien is filed at Franklin County
against the property.
Municipal Court – All fines and assessments rendered by the Court are
subject to Court jurisdiction and management.
3. When is an account deemed delinquent?
An account is considered delinquent until it is paid in full. The time it takes to
become delinquent varies slightly among billing categories. Typically, a bill is
due within 30 days of the initial billing or assessment. If unpaid, a delinquency
notice is then sent, providing an additional 30 days. Occasionally, a third bill is
issued. Should a bill remain unpaid, a pre-collection notice is created, giving
another 30 days before the account is forwarded to a collection agency. Pre-
collection notification is a legal requirement. An account is never sent to
collections less than 60 days after the initial billing. Occasionally, this schedule
may need to be adjusted. Examples include the cessation of collections due to
a pandemic and changes in software during system conversion. Should there
be delays, the amounts sent to collections may fluctuate.
4. Can the City settle bills after remittance to collections?
The Washington State Constitution prohibits the gifting of goods, services, or
the credit of public funds. As a result, the City cannot resolve outstanding debts
if they are correctly invoiced. In the Municipal Court's case, new legislation
mandates that the Court maintain jurisdiction over compromise settlements.
For other bill types, a collection agency is tasked with cost recovery by
charging a fee proportional to the original overdue amount. City interference in
the collection process post-assignment to an agency could hinder the agency's
efforts to recover costs. Routine interference by the City with collections could
deter potential partners from engaging in the collection process.
5. What are the outstanding balances with collection agency as end of 2023?
The statute of limitations permits ongoing collection activities on delinquent
accounts transferred to the agency from 2019 to 2023. The total balances for
these years are as follows:
Combined services utility - None
Ambulance Transport - $595,263
Code Enforcement - $418,080
Page 36 of 139
Miscellaneous, which includes any cemetery and any bills not accounted
for in other categories - $60,111
Municipal Court - To be provided by collection agency
The services offered by the collection agency are advantageous. Frequently,
when a customer falls behind on payments to the City, they may also have
outstanding debts with other businesses and agencies. Consequently, the
collection agency can utilize information from multiple sources to reach out and
communicate with clients effectively. Moreover, transferring these accounts to
the collection agency enables City staff to concentrate on addressing the
needs and inquiries of current customers.
Staff recommends approval of the contract with Washington Collectors Tri-
Cities Inc.

AGENDA REPORT
FOR: City Council May 15, 2024
TO: Adam Lincoln, City Manager City Council Regular
Meeting: 5/20/24
FROM: Jesse Rice, Director
Parks & Recreation
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 4453 - RAVE Foundation - Futsal Court Partnership
I. REFERENCE(S):
Resolution
MOA
PowerPoint Presentation
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: City the authorizing 4453, No. to approve move I Resolution
Manager to sign a Memorandum of Agreement between the RAVE Foundation
and the City of Pasco for the installation of two Futsal Courts in City parks.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact to City. Refinishing of the courts was already paid for through
a State Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO), Local Park Maintenance
Grant. The goals and the fencing and the court logos will be paid for by the
RAVE Foundation.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
The RAVE Foundation, the charitable arm of the Seattle Sounders created a
"26 fields by 2026" initiative in lead up to the 2026 World Cup that the USA is
hosting. These fields are developed collaboratively with selected communities
and are designed to foster wellness, inspire learning and create joy thru
soccer.
Last year, after City, Port of Pasco, and Pasco School District staff presented
potential east Pasco locations, the RAVE Foundation identified Pasco as
probable location to place one or more of their futsal courts. City staff worked
to understand their needs and requirements and identified both Highland and
Page 53 of 139
Kurtzman Parks as locations that met the program requirements. As the City is
already resurfacing these courts, RAVE is ready partner to fund the installation
of needed fencing and goals at each site to create the futsal courts.
Each of the identified parks currently have two underutilized basketball courts.
This partnership with RAVE would convert one of the two courts in each park to
a futsal/soccer court. Staff believes that, beyond providing a greater diversity of
recreational opportunities at each of these parks, the installation of the futsal
courts will also increase use of the one remaining basketball court at each
location.
V. DISCUSSION:
Staff presented the proposed Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the
RAVE Foundation to Council during the Council Workshop held on May 13th.
Staff is seeking Council approval for the MOA.

Planning, building, managing and operating public infrastructure is at the heart

The "Advancing Quality of Life for All" theme shines a spotlight on the way
public works professionals advance our quality of life, whether as a first
Page 71 of 139
responder to a snow event, responding to a main break, producing drinking
water through treatment or a myriad of other ways they silently serve their
communities.
Public works professionals advance the quality of life by providing
infrastructure in transportation, water treatment and distribution, wastewater
treatment and collection, as well as as stormwater management, emergency
management and first response, and right-of-way management. They are what
make our communities dynamic places to live and work.
Let's take this opportunity to express appreciation to the City's Public Works
employees for their contributions and care for the safety and health of
residents, businesses and visitors of Pasco.

III. FISCAL IMPACT:
None
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
On February 21, 2006, Council adopted the performance standards and
objectives as outlined in the Performance Standards, Resolution No. 2938, and
as required by RCW 35.103.010. The Resolution and Statute require annual
reporting by the Pasco Fire Department to the City Council.
V. DISCUSSION:
In 2023, the Pasco Fire Department saw a slight increase in call volume for
both EMS and fire related incidents. EMS calls continue to make up over 70%
of our workload and is on pace for the growth we are seeing. The Fire
Department completed a Standard of Cover (SOC) project and collaborated
with the City of Kennewick and the City of Richland to gather comprehensive
data region wide. As this information is finalized, staff will use it to evaluate and
analyze growth trends that impact both call volumes and needed service
delivery to the City of Pasco. This information will also be valuable as staff look
at ways to refine and streamline processes while continuing to provide a high
Page 90 of 139
level of service.
As part of the adjustment to the growth and changes, a new fire station went
under construction to address longer response times in the southwest portion
of the City. This project was completed and went into operation on February
14, 2024. Included in this planning process was the hiring of 18 new firefighters
and the purchase of a new structure engine, wildland truck and medic unit.
Even though call volumes and training demands increased, the Pasco Fire
Department kept community engage as a top priority. Staff were able to install
over 300 smoke alarms and trained over 600 community members in hands
only CPR.

II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: I move to adopt Ordnance No. 4714, amending the Pasco Municipal
Code Section 3.35.060 "Cemetery" Fees and, further, authorize publication by
summary only.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
N/A
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
The City of Pasco has operated the City View Cemetery since 1923. The
cemetery is a serene and dignified final resting place encompassing 22
beautifully maintained acres which offers a peaceful sanctuary for
remembrance and reflection of passed loved ones. On-site staff provide
compassionate and professional assistance to families, including burials,
memorial markers, niches, remembrance wall, and perpetual care.
In addition to traditional cemetery services, the facility also hosts several
annual remembrance events including Memorial Day, Veteran's Day, and
Wreaths Across America.
The cemetery has two service fee structures;
Base Rate service fees, set by City Ordinance which include: Burial
plots, inurnment, internment, and endowment care.
Page 104 of 139
Market Rate service fees, set by the City Manager's Office which
include liners, vases, urns, niches, memorial placement, and inscription
services.
These two fee structures combine to create the Cemetery Inclusive Services
Price Sheet posted at the Cemetery.
The previous cemetery services fee increase was in 2009. Due to increasing
costs of maintenance, services, and materials staff performed a market
analysis of similar offered services at local cemeteries and found our rates
were lower for some of the services and higher for others.
Based on the study and current operating costs, staff recommends setting
Base service rates as listed in the following table.
Page 105 of 139
Staff will also request City Manager to set new rates for Market items as listed
in the following table to align with current operating and supply costs. These
rates will come into effect 10 days after posting the new price list at the
Cemetery.
Page 106 of 139
As an example, the combined rate changes would impact a standard adult
Page 107 of 139
burial as listed:
V. DISCUSSION:
Staff presented this item to Council at the May 13th Workshop.
Staff recommends approval of the Ordinance amending the PMC Section
3.35.060 Cemetery, for its fees/charges to implement new rates identified in
this report.

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 4450 - Bid Award for Broadmoor Area Tax Increment

I. REFERENCE(S):
Resolution
PowerPoint Presentation
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No. 4450, awarding Bid No. 24595 for
the - Financing Increment Improvements Area Broadmoor Tax
Broadmoor/Burns Intersection Improvements Project to Apollo, Inc. of
Kennewick, WA; and further, authorize the City Manager to execute the
contract documents.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
Construction Contract: $2,695,994.19
Funding is provided by Utility Rates, Tax Increment Financing, and Developer
Contributions in the form of Proportionate Share Mitigation defined by SEPA.
The Adopted 2023-2024 Biennial Budget and the Proportionate Share
Contributions received provide the funding to cover the $2,791,000 necessary
to cover construction and construction management/administration costs.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
The Broadmoor area has the opportunity, if developed properly, to serve as a
significant economic engine for the Pasco community providing for increased
tax revenues to support City services and provide significant employment
opportunities for the residents of Pasco. In addition to the economic stimulus,
the development of the Broadmoor area will provide the necessary residential
Page 125 of 139
units to meet the demands of the population growth projected for the area by
the State of Washington.
The Washington State Legislature, during its 2021 legislative session, enacted
“AN ACT Relating to tax increment financing” and codified as RCW 39.114 (the
“TIF” Act), which authorizes local governments, including cities, to carry out tax
increment financing of the public improvements needed to support vital private
economic development projects.
Tax Increment Financing (TIF) is a program that allocates revenues generated
from the increased assessed valuation of properties improved by private
development that are within a designated Tax Increment Area (TIA) to pay for
public improvements that are needed to support development.
Council adopted Ordinance No. 4618, on October 31, 2022, designating a
specific TIF area of approximately 671 acres in the Broadmoor area.
The Broadmoor Area TIF Improvements – Broadmoor/Burns Intersection
Improvements project is the third phase of a multi-phased project planned to
make key infrastructure improvements necessary to promote development in
this area.
These improvements fall within the scope of allowable work as defined by
Section 4 of Ordinance No. 4618.
V. DISCUSSION:
The Phase 1A project provided for rough grading for the alignments of Road
108, Sandifur Parkway and a utility corridor, in anticipation of the construction
of utilities and roadways, in subsequent phases.
The Phase 1B Utililty Package Phase project is still currently under
construction. The goal of this project is to install critical utility infrastructure
backbone that will serve the entire Broadmoor Area. The alignments of these
utilities were selected to allow one of the future planned phases to construct
arterials and collectors that will make up the heart of the transportation grid in
this area. This phase is anticipated to be complete late summer/early fall of
2024.
This third phase of the Broadmoor TIF improvements will address deficiencies
at the intersection of Broadmoor and Burns, which is a key access point to the
Broadmoor area. There are two new public schools to the east that use this
intersection as an access point as well. This project will provide a signalized
intersection, dedicated turn lanes, and multi-modal considerations intended to
both raise the vehicular level of service and provide a safe environment for
Page 126 of 139
pedestrians and bicyclists.
The property owner has dedicated the adequate rights-of-way for this phase.
Broadmoor/Burns Intersection Improvements project was advertised for bids on
March 6, 2024, and March 13, 2024, respectively. On March 28, 2024 a public
bid opening was held at 2:00 PM.
A total of two (2) bids were received. The lowest responsible, responsive
bidder is Apollo, Inc. Kennewick, WA in the amount of $2,695,994.19. The
Engineer's Estimate is $3,666,377.82. The second bid was submitted by
Culbert Construction in the amount of $2,980,468.09.
The Engineer of Record, PBS Engineering & Environmental Incorporated, and
City staff completed the review of the bid submittal, and no exemptions or
irregularities were found.
This item was discussed at the May 13, 2024, Council Workshop. Staff
recommends award of the contract for Broadmoor Area TIF Improvements –
Broadmoor/Burns Intersection Improvements project to Apollo, Inc. Kennewick,
WA in the amount of $2,695,994.19.
