Police Department
SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 4717 - Creating New Pasco Municipal Code Section
9.80.035 Sitting, Lying on Sidewalk in Designated Zone
I. REFERENCE(S):
Propose Ordinance
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: I move to adopt Ordinance No. 4717, amending Pasco Municipal

authorize publication by summary only.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
None
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
The development of the Pasco Municipal Code (PMC) Section 9.80.035 Sitting,
Lying on Sidewalk in Designated Zone was driven by the need to improve
accessibility, safety, and public health on city sidewalks. As pedestrian traffic
and become walkways increased, have development downtown have
congested and obstructed. To address this issue, cities across the state have
enacted similar measures to ensure that sidewalks can accommodate safe
pedestrian to passage and public activities. This ordinance aims keep
sidewalks functional while supporting various public uses.
The specific provisions of PMC Section 9.80.035 include a general prohibition
against sitting or lying on sidewalks in designated high-traffic zones between
the hours of 6 AM. and midnight. This rule extends to sitting on any objects
placed on the sidewalks, such as chairs or blankets, and includes all sidewalk
fixtures at all times, regardless of the hour. Notably, the ordinance outlines
exceptions for individuals due to medical emergencies, disabilities, participation
Page 22 of 112
in or operation of permitted events, and other scenarios where sitting might be
necessary or permissible. Enforcement is designed to be reasonable, requiring
that individuals are first informed by law enforcement and given an opportunity
to comply before any legal action is taken.
The ordinance considers the needs and rights of all City residents, including
those with disabilities and other conditions that might require exceptions to the
rule. By clearly defining exceptions and enforcement protocols, the ordinance
aims to balance regulation and respect for individual circumstances, thus
fostering a safe environment for residents and visitors.
V. DISCUSSION:
This item was discussed at the June 10th Council Workshop, where staff
recommended adoption of the Ordinance.

AGENDA REPORT
FOR: City Council June 12, 2024
TO: Adam Lincoln, City Manager City Council Regular
Meeting: 6/17/24
FROM: Ken Roske, Police Chief
Police Department
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 4460 - First Amendment to Exclusive Agreement with
Redflex Traffic Systems, Inc. for Photo Enforcement Program
I. REFERENCE(S):
Resolution
First Amendment to Photo Enforcement Program Agreement
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: City the authorizing 4460, No. I approve to move Resolution
Manager to execute a First Amendment to the Exclusive Agreement with
Redflex Traffic Systems, Inc. for Photo Enforcement Program.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
None. Revenues received from traffic infractions are used to pay for program
expenses like RedFlex contract and Police Department and Municipal Court
staff hours. Any excess funds can exclusively used for traffic safety projects.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
On August 8, 2018, Pasco City Council approved the use of electronic traffic
control on two intersections in the City of Pasco; 20th Avenue & Court Street,
and Road 68 & Burden Boulevard. Following that decision, staff conducted a
comparative analysis of vendors providing electronic traffic enforcement
services, selected a preferred vendor and negotiated a contract for services.
Redflex traffic electronic provided has Traffic Inc Systems, (Redflex)
enforcement services since that time.
V. DISCUSSION:
Staff evaluated several vendors for this project, eventually deciding to pursue
Redflex. Redflex provided a presentation to Council on how their system
Page 28 of 112
works.
This system records only the rear part of the vehicle, taking several photos and
video from the time the vehicle enters the intersection for about 12 seconds. If
a vehicle is already in the intersection when the light turns red, the camera will
not pick up on that vehicle. For right turns, the City can determine when a
violation occurs; for example the system can be set so that a vehicle does not
have to come to a full stop before proceeding through a red light for a right
turn. It can be set up to any speed threshold the City determines (i.e. 5 MPH).
Once the pre-determined threshold is met, a photo is taken it is sent to the
vendor’s system and the Police Department is notified that there is a possible
violation. A trained Pasco Police Officer then reviews the photo to determine if
a violation has occurred. Just like any traffic stop the Officer will have full
discretion to determine if the possible violation is valid and authorize a citation
or invalid and disregard the possible violation. Like in the field, the Officer will
take several factors into account including time of day, weather, number of
vehicles observed in the area, pedestrians and any other factor that the officer
feels is pertinent in making the decision. If the Officer determines there is no
violation, the information is purged. If the Officer determines a violation has
occurred the vendor is notified and an infraction notice is issued on City of
Pasco letterhead to the owner of the vehicle. The offender receives the
violation in the mail and can either pay it or contest it through Pasco Municipal
Court. If the potential violator has any questions he or she can also come to the
Police Department and discuss it with a Police Officer. The potential violator
can also view the photo and video of the potential infraction online. The vehicle
owner can also sign a waiver with the court indicating that they either do not
own the vehicle, or someone else was driving and the court can waive the
citation.
In essence, this process is no different than if the Officer stops a violator on the
road and issues a citation at that time. The only thing the vendor is doing is
providing a photo with time stamp of the potential violation but the
determination on whether it is a violation is up to the officer viewing the photo.
This process is designed to improve the safety of the traveling public and the
Officers who enforce traffic laws. It is not designed to be strictly a way to
generate revenue, but rather is a cost effective and safe way to try to improve
safety at a busy and dangerous intersection. With all other options reviewed
and the traffic at these intersection continuing to increase the need to do
something at these intersections is important.
This first amendment to the original contract is for a month-to-month period.
This will allow staff time to have a study conducted for the red light camera
program and the effects it has had on traffic safety. Once completed, this
study’s findings will be presented to Council, as well as a recommendation
concerning the red light photo enforcement program.

Meeting: 6/17/24
FROM: Ken Roske, Police Chief

SUBJECT: *Resolution No. 4461 - Interagency Agreement with the Washington

Proposed Resolution
Interagency Agreement Between Washington State Criminal Justice Training
Commission and Pasco Police Department
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION:City the authorizing No. 4461, approve to move I Resolution
Manager to execute an Interagency Agreement between the Washington State
Criminal Justice Training Commission and the City of Pasco Police
Department.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
None
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
Prior to the successful implementation of the Basic Law Enforcement Academy
(BLEA) Pasco Campus. The Washington State Criminal Justice Training
Commission operated one police academy located in Burien. This single
location is not able to accommodate the growing number of new police recruits
and addressing the need for additional police academies involves more than
resolving capacity issues.
Pasco, along with other law enforcement agencies, has identified a more
effective approach to police recruit training. The introduction of regional police
academies offers training that is regionally centered and culturally relevant,
aligning better with the specific needs of the areas they serve.
Page 34 of 112
The regional concept enhances recruitment opportunities, particularly for
individuals facing relocation challenges, such as single parents or those with
family obligations that prevent a 19-week relocation. This approach allows
police departments to attract talented candidates from within the communities
they will serve.
Over the past year, Pasco has experienced significant benefits from its regional
academy, successfully training twelve recruit officers. This regional academy
model has a substantial impact on our ability to prepare and deploy well-trained
officers within our community.
V. DISCUSSION:
The attached Interagency Agreement will allow the Pasco Police Department to
continue to provide a regional police academy at our current location in Pasco.

HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
As part of the City’s effort to provide for the proper and necessary development of a
functional transportation network, the City shall, as required by State law (RCW
35.77.010), develop and adopt annually a Six-Year Transportation Improvement
Plan (Six-Year TIP) with such program acting as a guide for the coordinated
development of the City's transportation system. The Six-Year TIP of the City
specifically sets forth those projects and programs of both City and regional
significance that benefit the transportation system and promote public safety and
efficient multi-modal movement.
Projects in the TIP are selected from master plans such as the Transportation
System Master Plan, Broadmoor Master Plan, Downtown Pasco Master Plan, and

Routes needs maintenance and operational improvements), School to and
identified by City Departments.
This 2025-2030 annual update will be referred to as the Transportation
Improvement Plan and is being coordinated by the Community and Economic
Development and Public Works Departments.
Update of the Six-Year TIP and subsequent submission to the State are statutory
requirements, and while the program is not required to be fiscally constrained, the
program should be practical and feasible. The Council will see many of these
projects again, incorporated with the annual Six-Year Capital Improvement Plan
and the biennial budgeting process in the coming months.
Staff provided an introductory presentation to the City Council, outlining the process
and next steps in preparing the 2025-2030 project list at the May 28th and June 3rd
City Council Meetings.

What Worked Well
•Multifaceted Media Approach: The campaign strategically used Facebook,
YouTube, LinkedIn, Nextdoor, radio, and television to engage a diverse
audience. The traditional media components, including a KONA Radio interview
with an average listenership of 141,200 and a KNDU TV spot reaching an
average of 16,000 viewers, significantly extended the campaign's reach beyond
digital platforms.
•Strong Social Media Engagement: Facebook events and reminder posts
effectively engaged users, with 100 total reactions and 94 interactions,
demonstrating active viewer involvement across digital platforms.
•Growth in Social Media Following: Targeted social media strategies led to an
increase in followers, adding 73 on Instagram and 182 on Facebook, enhancing
the City’s future communication reach.
Areas for Improvement
•Underperforming Digital Content: Despite extensive reach, the YouTube video
and LinkedIn post showed relatively low engagement compared to potential
impressions. Enhanced content strategies are needed to improve engagement
on these platforms.
•Low Interaction and Conversion Rates: The overall comments and shares
across platforms were minimal, highlighting a need for content that encourages
deeper interaction and participation from the audience.
Recommendations
1.Enhance Content Engagement: Introduce more engaging and interactive
content, especially on platforms like YouTube and LinkedIn, where engagement
has been lower than expected.
2.Interactive Features Increase: Utilize interactive elements such as polls, live
Q&A sessions, and contests to boost interactions and engagement on Facebook
and Nextdoor.
3.Content Optimization for Conversion: Craft messages that compel the
audience to actively participate, using direct calls to action for commenting,
sharing, or attending events.
4.Strategic Advertising: Employ targeted advertising, if given a budget, to
increase the visibility of key posts, especially those on platforms with lower
organic reach, ensuring they reach a broader and more diverse audience.
Conclusion
The Transportation Improvement Plan's outreach campaign effectively expanded the
City of Pasco’s digital and traditional media footprint, increasing public awareness about
Page 86 of 112
crucial transportation planning initiatives. The campaign successfully engaged a large
audience through a well-rounded media mix. Building on the insights gained, future
campaigns can achieve higher interaction rates and foster more meaningful
engagement with the community, supporting the Council's goal of enhancing active
participation in local governance.

III. FISCAL IMPACT:
None
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
Development-related fees are charges imposed by local governments on
developers/developments and services public of cover the help to costs
infrastructure required due to new development. These fees aim to ensure that
the financial burden of growth is balanced between developers and existing
residents.
The City of Pasco had adopted a fee structure that address the various
permitting, development, and construction activity facilitated and administer by
the City. There are several different fees, identified below:
Permit Fees
o Charged for processing and reviewing applications, including
building permits and land use, zoning, environmental review,
traffic analysis, and general planning and development.
Utility Connection Fees
Page 95 of 112
o Fees for connecting new developments to public utilities like
water, sewer, irrigation.
Impact Fees
o local a by assessed charges are fees Impact one-time
government against a new development project to help pay for
new or expanded public capital facilities that will directly address
the increased demand for services created by that development.
Impact fees are not applicable for each development application.
o Impact fee revenues cannot be used to help pay for a specific
capital project if that project is not listed or referenced within a
comprehensive per RCW element, capital plan’s facilities
82.02.050(5).
Impact fees also cannot exceed a proportionate share of the cost of the
system improvements: Municipalities must have additional funding
sources and may not rely solely on impact fees to fund the system
improvements (RCW 82.02.050).
Mitigation Fees
o Mitigation fees are assessed only after a nexus has been
identified in conjunction with a review of a development
or further fees, studies can Mitigations application. include
evaluations associated with an application. The intent of the
mitigation is to offset the impacts of new development projects,
and if fees are determined, are used to mitigate or reduce
adverse effects on the environmental, infrastructure, or
community resource.
(Fee Chapter in fees specifies 3.35 Code Municipal Pasco The (PMC)
Summary) and includes the fees mentioned above. While not explicitly listed,
many and commercial or subdivisions significant as such projects, large
industrial developments, require reviews by engineering staff to assess impacts
and ensure compliance. This may involve the review of traffic studies or
multiple rounds of comments. Staff aims to provide comprehensive information
to each applicant throughout the development process, particularly early on, to
minimize disruptions to project progress.
City of Pasco Impact Fees
The City currently has impact fees for parks, traffic, and also facilitates the
collection of school impact fees in coordination with the Pasco School District.
Park Impact Fee
o adopted September 2013, Ordinance No. 4119
o Fee: $1,300 per dwelling
o Annual increase of 3.25% per PMC 3.35.250
School Impact Fee
o adopted March 2012, Ordinance No. 4046
o Fee: $4,700 per SF dwelling; $4,525 per MF dwelling
Page 96 of 112
o Collected fees are transferred to Pasco School District
I-182 Corridor Traffic Impact Fee
o adopted March 2005, Ordinance No. 3719
o Fee: $709 per SF dwelling; $435 per MF dwelling; $43 per daily
vehicle trip for commercial and industrial trips
o This fee is only applicable to projects west of 20th Avenue.
On June 9, 2024, the City Council passed Ordinance No. 4716 amending the
Pasco Municipal Code related to the assignment of Water Rights. This is not
considered an impact fee, as the PMC clearly establishes that the assignment
is based on the Amount of Water Rights to be transferred, or Payment in Lieu.
V. DISCUSSION:
Development-related fees, including impact fees, development review fees,
and others, play a vital role in managing growth by ensuring that the costs of
new infrastructure and public services are shared between developers and
existing residents. These fees help maintain the quality of life in growing
communities by funding essential public services and infrastructure
improvements. It is also important to evaluate the impacts of development
related fees, as they can become a barrier for both new development, re-
development and investments in existing neighborhoods.
Staff is currently conducting an analysis of permitting applications and fees for
the period between January 1, 2020, and May 31, 2024. This detailed permit
data will enhance our understanding of development-related fees and provide
relevant data for evaluating the city's development strategies. The analysis is
expected to be available by the end of July 2024. The results of this evaluation
will further support the ongoing collaboration with local developers, builders,
and realtors in relation to our Development Review Process Update.
Attached to this report are two reports, comparing fees for neighboring cities,
including Pasco, Kennewick, Richland, and West Richland. This comparison
was completed in January 2023 and October 2023, and shared with community
members and stakeholders in the local development industry. Total cost of
development varies with each project type, size, location, and infrastructure
needed. When considering major impact fees, development in the City of
Pasco is greater than neighboring cities. This disparity is largely due to School
Impact Fees which are collected by the City and distributed to Pasco School
District. As mentioned before, staff are also looking to streamline development
efforts which will result in faster processing and reduced development costs for
larger projects. It is also important to note that many of the development fees
have not been updated in the last decade, update of the fees will also provide
greater clarity, certainty and removal of other development fees collected to
mitigate the insufficient fees.

Staff welcomes Council discussion and direction on this topic.

Narrative:
The City of Pasco conducted a comparative analysis of fee structures from 4 jurisdictions including: Pasco, Richland, West Richland, and
Kennewick. The attached formula and comparison are based on a 2500 square foot dwelling unit, with a 450 square foot garage, and a 140
square foot porch. Also included in this analysis is a 1,400 square foot dwelling with a 450 square foot garage and 140 square foot porch. We
have also provided a permit estimation for commercial development. There are dozens of variables when performing this type of
comparison that makes a straight-line comparison nearly impossible. Traffic impact fees and water/sewer connection fees are considered on
a locational or case by case basis. The City of Pasco, like hundreds of other jurisdictions base their fees from the current International Code
Councils Building Evaluation Guide and is annually updated.
KEY COMPONENTS
• Construction valuations among the cities surveyed are similar.
• State fees and permit fees are identical Single Family Dwelling Units (SFDU)
• Plan review fees are considerably different ranging from $0 to $1600 (SFDU)
• Pasco’s park impact fees are slightly higher than West Richland and Richland
• Pasco’s traffic impact fees are greatly less than most of the other cities
• Pasco is the only city with a required school impact fee
SUMMARY: Pasco’s overall fees are comparable if not lower than the other cities, with the exception of the additional school impact fee.
