ATTACHMENT(S): 2025 State Legislative Priorities II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Discussion led by Adam Lincoln, City Manager and Briahna Murray, Partner, Gordon Thomas Honeywell Governmental Affairs with participation of City Council and the 8th, 14th and 16th Legislative Delegations III. FISCAL IMPACT: N/A IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: have Honeywell Thomas Gordon of Holly and Murray Briahna Sanabria coordinated in-person and virtual participation of the 8th, 14th and 16th District legislators to discuss the City of Pasco's (City’s) legislative priorities for the 2025 Legislative Session, which begins on January 13th. In the past, the City’s legislators have shared their appreciation for the opportunity to meet with Pasco local elected officials in advance of the legislative session. This meeting provides a unique opportunity for all the City’s legislators to connect with the Pasco City Council and share their priorities and plans for the legislative session, and for Councilmembers to do the same. V. DISCUSSION: The purpose of this event is for the City Council to brief the City’s legislators on the Legislative funding requests identified on the City's Agenda. Councilmembers will speak to each of the funding requests outlined on the Page 6 of 200 Legislative Agenda, with City Staff and Lobbyist providing additional background information. Lobbyist, Briahna Murray at GTH-GOV, and City Staff have developed assignments and talking points. Ms. Murray and Mr. Lincoln will facilitate the discussion so Council can hear from all the legislators and provide Councilmembers time for comment and interaction. Page 7 of 200 The City of Pasco requests the state’s continued partnership to renovate the MLK Community Center in East Pasco. Phase 1 of the renovation focused on the Northwest building and is nearing completion. To advance Phase 2, the City requests $900,000 to renovate the Southwest building of the MLK Community Center. Phase 2 will turn the Southwest building into a library and community room, and upgrade restrooms and building access to meet ADA requirements. The renovation of the Southwest building will bring the City closer to completing the entire campus, which serves as an essential space for a diverse neighborhood. 2025 State Funding Requests MLK COMMUNITY CENTER PHASE 2 To improve recreational access for the community, Pasco has sought out opportunities to acquire properties for parks, particularly in those areas of the community underserved by parks. Only 3% of the city’s land is used for parks. The City of Pasco requests $500,000 to develop the Road 80 Neighborhood Park. The 3-acre neighborhood park is in a park desert. Developing the park will bring playgrounds, shelter, walking paths, and trees to what is currently a grass field. The additions will transform the space into a park that offers a variety of passive and active recreational opportunities for Pasco residents of all ages. ROAD 80 NEIGHBORHOOD PARK Pasco owns and operates an innovative Process Water Reuse Facility (PWRF) that utilizes wastewater from food processors to irrigate nearby farm circles. As more food processors choose to locate in Pasco, the City needs additional farm circles to irrigate. The City asks for the state’s partnership in acquiring or leasing nearby circles owned by the Department of Natural Resources and/or the private parties. PASCO PROCESS WATER REUSE FACILITY Pasco requests state funding to advance the Road 76 Overpass Project to create a multimodal connection across I-182, which currently divides neighborhoods from commercial areas and complicates local travel patterns. The overpass project will reduce travel distances and decrease daily vehicle miles by 6,300 by 2045. The City requests $5 million for the design and right-of-way acquisition, and $30 million for construction. This project is ranked as one of the region’s top transportation projects by the Benton Franklin Council of Governments (BFCOG) and Benton Franklin and Walla Walla Good Roads Transportation Association (BFWWGRTA). ROAD 76 OVERPASS Pasco requests state funding to perform a comprehensive analysis of State Route 12 from the intersections of A Street to Tank Farm/Sacajawea Park Road to develop practical solutions that will improve safety and economic vitality for the region. Given the recent increase in crashes and the expected rise in traffic volumes, including significant freight traffic, the analysis will aim to identify safety concerns, develop alternatives, perform stakeholder engagement, develop conceptual design and planning estimates. The City requests $3 million to complete the analysis. This project is ranked as one of the region’s top transportation projects by BFWWGRTA and as a project of significance for BFCOG. Project is also known as “SR 12 A Street Crossing Improvements” in some publications. US 12/A STREET TRAFFIC STUDY Pasco requests state funding for the Lewis Street Underpass Demolition. The state invested in the development of the Lewis Street Overpass, which was completed in 2024. Due to cost overruns associated with the overpass, the City needs $3.3 million to complete demolition of the underpass and to honor its agreement with BNSF. LEWIS STREET UNDERPASS DEMOLITION Pasco requests state funding to construct a multimodal crossing over I-182 to create a critical connection for active transportation along the corridor which is surrounded by residences, schools and essential commercial businesses. The City requests $8 million for construction. BROADMOOR BLVD/BIKE/PED PATH Page 8 of 200 QUALITY OF LIFE Local Community Decision-Making Pasco opposes any proposals that restrict, mandate, or otherwise interfere with the city’s ability to make local decisions that are informed by public processes and community engagement. Housing Affordability Pasco supports efforts to bring more affordable housing to the Pasco community including reduced barriers to constructing housing and grant funding through programs like the Housing Trust Fund. Homelessness Pasco supports additional tools to assist cities in addressing homelessness, including resources for the city’s resource navigator program. Additionally, the City asks that the Legislature continue to empower cities to address homeless encampments in a compassionate but effective manner. The City of Pasco Policy Issues COMMUNITY SAFETY Crime Reduction and Prevention Pasco supports policies to reduce and prevent crime in the community, including efforts to reduce and prevent gang violence. Law Enforcement Recruitment and Retention Pasco supports increased funding for public safety efforts, including funding and policies to recruit, hire, train, and retain law enforcement officers, including but not limited to ongoing support for regional training academies. Juvenile Interrogations Pasco supports legislation clarifying that officers can interrogate juveniles. Traffic Safety Pasco supports legislation and grant funding to improve traffic safety through the implementation of traffic calming measures. Fentanyl & Opioid Epidemic Pasco supports prioritizing solutions to the fentanyl and opioid epidemic, including funding to first responders for Narcan. Behavioral Health (Mental Health & Substance Use) Pasco supports investments in the state’s behavioral health system, including crisis response, detox facilities, outpatient case management services, and more. Public Defense The City of Pasco is responsible for providing public defense services to indigent defendants of misdemeanor charges. The City supports state policies to assist in recruiting public defenders and allocating the necessary funding needed to meet public defense caseload standards under consideration by the Washington State Supreme Court. COMMUNITY TRANSPORTATION NETWORK Tri-Cities Mobility Pasco supports efforts to explore a third crossing over the Columbia River to improve regional mobility throughout the Tri-Cities. Foster Wells Interchange Pasco supports Franklin County’s request for the Foster Wells Interchange project, which aims to improve traffic flow and access to the growing area around the Foster Wells Road corridor. Page 9 of 200 FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY Grant Proposals Pasco supports ongoing and increased funding to grant programs that benefit city projects, including but not limited to the Public Works Assistance Account, the Washington Wildlife and Recreation Program, Complete Streets, Safe Routes to Schools, and more. State-Shared Revenues Pasco supports preserving and enhancing state-shared revenue streams. Unfunded Mandates Pasco opposes any unfunded mandates that increase costs to cities without additional state funding provided. Public Records Act Pasco supports any proposals that reduce the impact of abusive public records requests and litigation. Election of Judges Pasco opposes legislation mandating that part-time municipal court judges be elected rather than appointed. Insurance Costs Recent legislation and subsequent court decisions have increased the legal liability of public entities, resulting in higher rates for liability coverage. The City’s liability rates increased by 27% from 2022 to 2023 and by another 17% from 2023 to 2024. The City supports efforts to protect against liability expansion and opposes new policies that would drive additional claims and increase litigation costs. PFML/FMLA Coordination Pasco supports efforts to align the administration of the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and state Paid Family Medical Leave (PFML) programs to run concurrently. Harmonizing these programs will help maintain their benefits without imposing excessive costs. The City of Pasco Policy Issues City Manager's Office City of Pasco 509-545-3404 ECONOMIC VITALITY Water Rights Pasco is a growing community with a finite water supply. The City supports legislative efforts to allow the city to increase water rights to meet the needs of the growing community. Additionally, Pasco recognizes that water conservation must be part of the solution in making the most with available water rights. Economic Development Tools Pasco supports economic development tools to spur development downtown and in key commercial corridors, including funding for an industrial symbiosis project at the Port of Pasco and retaining and enhancing tax increment financing. DNR Property within the UGA Pasco is opposed to DNR buying land within the City’s UGA and asks that DNR divest itself of the undeveloped agricultural land it currently owns within the UGA and keeping the associated water rights with said land, not moving them outside city limits. Annexation Pasco supports incentives that encourage annexation, including utilizing utility extensions, and mechanisms that facilitate the annexation of unincorporated islands. Growth Management Pasco opposes any proposals that create new planning obligations within the Growth Management Act that are not coupled with adequate funding. Briahna Murray, Lobbyist Gordon Thomas Honeywell, GR 253-310-5477 bmurray@gth-gov.com The City supports AWC legislative agenda items that serve the best interests of Pasco. Page 10 of 200 P R O J E C T S C O P E The City of Pasco is requesting $900,000 to fund Phase 2 of the Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center Renovation & Expansion project. This initiative focuses on the comprehensive renovation and expansion of the Community Center located in East Pasco, a neighborhood vital to both Latino and African American communities. The Center has been a key facility since 1976 and encompasses services from the East Pasco YMCA and the Benton-Franklin Head Start (BFHS). Key Highlights: Community Role: Serves as a cultural hub, hosting the East Pasco YMCA and BFHS, and is the focal point for the annual Juneteenth celebration. Economic Need: Located in an area with a lower median income and higher poverty index compared to the Pasco average, highlighting the need for continued investment. Comprehensive Phasing: The project's three-phase design allows for continuous community use with minimal disruption during renovations. Project Goals: The renovation is planned in three distinct phases to accommodate ongoing community activities and ensure facility improvements are executed effectively: Phase 1: Currently under construction, this phase includes bringing the Northwest campus building up to code with ADA-compliant restrooms, new classrooms, a community room, offices, and infrastructure improvements such as new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and fire suppression systems, along with an external play area and landscaping. Phase 2: This phase will transform the Southwest building and the corridor between the Southwest building and gym from a game room/computer lab into a library, connect it with a renovated and expanded hallway to the gym and BFHS area, and include the construction of new ADA-compliant restrooms. Additionally, the existing center atrium will be enclosed to create a new public space, and the front entry will be remodeled to establish a welcoming reception area.

The mechanical room will be upgraded to current standards. The project's total budget is estimated at $12.0 million, with the city having secured $6.48 million in grants and local funds. The enhancements will ensure the Center can continue to provide technological access, foster community growth, and support essential educational and recreational programs. Page 11 of 200 The City of Pasco is requesting $500,000 to develop a new neighborhood park at the northwest corner of Massey Drive and Road 80, adjacent to Three Rivers Elementary School. This initiative aims to address the recreational needs of a growing residential area currently underserved by local park facilities. Key Highlights: Strategic Location: Situated next to an elementary school and designed to serve a residential area lacking in park facilities. Community Benefit: Meets the Parks, Recreation and Open Space (PROS) Master Plan's requirements for local recreational spaces, enhancing the quality of life for residents. Planned Features: The park will include a walking path, picnic shelters, playgrounds, playing courts, benches, trash cans, a drinking fountain, and a portable restroom enclosure. Project Goals: The Road 80 Neighborhood Park project involves transforming an existing irrigated grass field into a fully- equipped public park. Key development phases include: Infrastructure Setup: Incorporating existing sidewalk, curb, and gutter systems on the north, east, and south sides, with the west side bounded by the schoolyard fence. Recreational Facilities: Installing multiple amenities such as a walking path that encourages active lifestyles, picnic shelters for community gatherings, playgrounds for children's activities, and playing courts for sports and fitness.

Additionally, provisions for a portable restroom will be made to ensure convenience for park-goers. This development not only fulfills a critical need highlighted in the City's PROS Master Plan but also significantly enhances the neighborhood's accessibility to recreational spaces, promoting a healthier, more vibrant community environment.

Mayor Serrano recommended keeping the overnight truck zoning along the highway and C-3 zoning districts. Mr. Perales suggested more flexibility regarding pavement, to possibly allow gravel, reduce trash receptacles to at least one, and relaxing the landscaping requirements. Also, concentrate in the C-3 zoning districts, rather than north of the freeway, and no need for buffer areas in areas such as King City, as it's already a truck stop area. Otherwise he was in support of the ordinance. Mr. Harpster concurred with Mr. Perales' recommendations, adding that a 500- foot buffer is the way to go, include the C-3 zoning districts knowing that the Broadmoor Overlay District is not going to be included, and remove the requirement to pave to allow gravel. Mr. Grimm concurred with Mr. Perales and Mr. Harpster, adding that he didn't feel there should be a garbage can requirement based per spaces. He also felt that gravel would be fine and that the 500-foot buffer is sufficient. Lastly, he approved of the 72-hour timeframe or the 48 hour stay limit with exceptions to extend the stay for holidays or inclement weather. Mr. Gonzalez provided clarification that 72-hour stay limit was recommended by the Planning Commission. However, there had also been discussion of 96-hour stay limit and a discussion to reduce to the limit to 48 hours with the flexibility for Page 6 of 9Page 24 of 200 holiday weekends and inclement weather. Ms. Barajas recommended following the recommendations from the Planning Commission to keep it as simple as possible so that the habitants know the rules. Councilmembers were in agreement to move forward with the ordinance. There was discussion on changing the paving requirement to allow for gravel, the number of allowable hours, with the majority agreeing to 72-96 hours maximum, a relaxing the trash receptacle requirement.

Ms. Barajas expressed support for the program and wants to ensure renters are living in conditions that are safe and livable. Mayor Serrano stated that he could see the benefits in the program, as well as a reason to eliminate.

ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No. 4548, accepting work performed by Total Site Services, LLC under contract for the Transmission Main – West Pasco Water Treatment Plant (WPWTP) to Zone 3 Project. III. FISCAL IMPACT: Engineer's Estimate $ 3,789,800.00 Bid Award $ 2,611,438.23 Change Orders $ (4,587.61) Final Construction Cost $ 2,606,850.64 Funding for the project is provided as follows: This project came in under the adopted 2023 – 2024 budget. American Rescue Plan Act: $3,000,000.00 Water Utility Funds: $1,529,246.00 IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: This Transmission Main project installed approximately 3,000 feet of 30-inch and 24-inch water main from the West Pasco Water Treatment (WPWTP) Plant to Pressure Zone 3 to create a more robust potable water system to existing Page 42 of 200 and future customers. The scope of work includes the installation of 30-inch pipe from the WPWTP booster pump station to a point where the line splits into two 24-inch lines. The first branch connects to existing water lines near the intersection of Broadmoor Blvd. and St. Thomas Drive. The second branch crosses under I-182 through a steel casing (installed by a previous project for this purpose) and connects to the Harris Road extension through the Broadmoor Development area. The two water main alignments allow the potable water system to be more robust than a single delivery point into Pressure Zone 3 and for system redundancy. This transmission main is critical to providing adequate service to future Zone 3 customers. It will provide for sufficient quantities of water to the existing and proposed water storage reservoirs. This is a companion project to the West Pasco Water 3 the and Zone (several project Expansion WTP phases) Reservoir project and was first identified in the Water System Plan. On November 7, 2022, Council awarded the Transmission Main – West Pasco Water Treatment Plant (WPWTP) to Zone 3 contract (Resolution 4269) to Total Site Services of Richland, WA in the amount of $2,611,438.23. Since Construction began, the project required 3 Change Orders for a total of $(4,587.61). The Change Orders addressed:  State sales tax increase from 8.7% to 8.9%.  Additional fittings and pipe to navigate Franklin PUD electrical vault, and deduction of a casing that was not needed once area was excavated.  Removal of additional thrust block, locating a previously unknown utility, repair of streetlight that was removed due to waterline shift, removal of additional thrust block located in Broadmoor Blvd, Restocking fee for remainder of pipe, Reconciliation of bid items. Formal acceptance of public works projects is required by State law and starts the 45-day period within which an outside vendor, supplier or laborer would have an opportunity to file a claim against this project pursuant to RCW 60.28.011 (2). Upon completion of the 45-day lien filing period, retainage being held by the City may be released upon receipts of the following:  An affidavit of no liens  A release from the Department of Revenue that all taxes have been paid  A release from any claims from the Department of Labor and Industries, pursuant to RCW 60.28.051 V.

ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: MOTION:zoning the amending 4752, No. adopt to move I Ordinance classification of certain real property located east of Road 76, west of Road 68, south of Sandifur Parkway, and north Wrigley Drive, in Pasco, Franklin County, Washington, from C-1, Retail Business to R-4, High Density Residential and, further, authorize publication by summary only. III. FISCAL IMPACT: None. IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: On October 9, 2024, the Hearing Examiner held a public hearing to consider a request to rezone Lot 3 of Binding Site Plan 2019-03 (Parcel No. 116140050), located east of Road 76, west of Road 68, south of Sandifur Parkway, and north Wrigley Drive, Pasco, Franklin County, Washington from C-1, Retail Business District, to R-4, High Density Residential District. Following the conclusion of the public hearing, the Hearing Examiner recommended approval of the Applicant's request for a rezone. Page 54 of 200 No appeals of this recommendation have been received. V. DISCUSSION: Applicant Dennis Gisi submitted application Z 2023-008 to rezone Lot 3 of Binding Site Plan 2019-03 (Parcel No. 116140050), located east of Road 76, west of Road 68, south of Sandifur Parkway, and north Wrigley Drive, Pasco, Franklin County, Washington from C-1, Retail Business District, to R-4, High Density Residential District. The site comprises approximately 2.52 acres. The underlying Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use designation is Mixed Residential/Commercial. The initial review criteria for considering a rezone application are explained in the Pasco Municipal Code (PMC) Section 25.210.030. The criteria are listed below as follows: 1. The date the existing zone became effective: The Property was assigned RT zoning in 1981 via Ordinance No. 2388, and subsequently rezoned from R-T, Residential Transition District, to C-1 in 2003 via Ordinance No. 3615. 2. The changed conditions, which are alleged to warrant other or additional zoning: Per the applicant, due to economic conditions, the best use of the property is residential, not commercial. 3. Facts to justify the change on the basis of advancing the public health, safety and general welfare: The Mixed Residential/Commercial Comprehensive Plan Land Use designation allows for R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4; C-1 and O zoning districts. High-Density Residential development will add residential density to the City of Pasco, potentially reducing urban sprawl and increasing housing stock. The rezone application and proposal are consistent with the Council-approved amendments to the Pasco Comprehensive Plan, which has been determined to be in the best interest of advancing public health, safety and general welfare of the community. 4. The effect it will have on the value and character of the adjacent property and the Comprehensive Plan: Per Applicant, If the property retains it's C-1 zoning designation the property would be sold as the applicant does not construct or operate commercial properties. Page 55 of 200 5. The effect on the property owner or owners if the request is not granted: The proposed development would not be permitted under the existing zoning designation, creating inconsistencies between the adopted Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map and development opportunities. 6. The Comprehensive Plan land use designation for the property: The this Map Use Land designates Comprehensive Pasco of City Plan Property as Mixed Residential/Commercial. The Mixed Residential/Commercial Land housing, Use designation accommodates a diverse range of nonresidential uses, commercial uses, neighborhood retail and office uses, parks and recreation areas, and civic uses at a density of 5 to 29 dwelling units per acre, and may be assigned R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4; C-1 and O zoning. Per the PMC Section 25.215.015 maximum gross density of any proposed development within any zoning district, expressed as dwelling units per acre, shall be no less than the corresponding minimum density expressed in the Comprehensive Plan land use density table, and no greater than the corresponding maximum density expressed in the Comprehensive Plan land use density table, except as provided in Chapter 25.161 PMC. 7. Such other information as the Hearing Examiner requires: The rezone application is consistent with and meets the intent of the Comprehensive Plan, and City Council Goals. Full descriptions and details can be found in the attached 'Staff Report and Information Packet to Hearing Examiner for Hearing on October 9, 2024.' Recommendation--Hearing Examiner: As noted in the attached 'Hearing Examiner Recommendation,' the Hearing Examiner has found that the proposed rezone meets the criteria found in PMC Section 25.210.060, and recommended, based on the Recommended Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, that the City Council approve the rezone of Parcel No. 116140050 from C-1 to R-4.

The site comprises approximately 2.52 acres (approximately 109,800 square feet). The underlying Land Use Code has recently been amended to “Mixed Residential & Commercial,” which specifies 5 to 29 dwelling units (DU) per acre. History The site was platted in 2019, as part of Binding Site Plan 2019-03. The site was assigned RT zoning in 1981 via Ordinance 2388 and subsequently rezoned from RT (Residential Transition) to C-1 in 2003 via Ordinance 3615. The site has never been developed and is currently vacant. Rezone Criteria The initial review criteria for considering a rezone application are explained in PMC 25.210.030. The criteria are listed below as follows: 1. The date the existing zone became effective: The site was assigned RT zoning in 1981 via Ordinance 2388 and subsequently rezoned to C-1 in 2003 via Ordinance 3615. 2. The changed conditions, which are alleged to warrant other or additional zoning: Per the applicant, due to economic conditions, the best use of the property is residential, not commercial. 3. Facts to justify the change on the basis of advancing the public health, safety and general welfare: Page 66 of 200 3 The Mixed Residential & Commercial designation allows for R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4; C-1 and O zoning; development with High-Density Residential will add and increase density which will help reduce urban sprawl and increase home ownership. The rezone application and proposal are consistent with the Council-approved amendments to the Pasco Comprehensive Plan, which has been determined to be in the best interest of advancing public health, safety and general welfare of the community. 4. The effect it will have on the value and character of the adjacent property and the Comprehensive Plan: A change in zoning would be consistent with the comprehensive plan Land Use Map Mixed Residential & Commercial designation for the site. The site has been subject to at least two Code Enforcement cases related to maintenance, development of the site would improve the value and character of the adjacent properties. 5. The effect on the property owner or owners if the request is not granted: Per Applicant, If the property remains with the current C-1 zoning designation the property would be sold as the applicant does not construct or operate commercial properties. 6. The Comprehensive Plan land use designation for the property: The City of Pasco Comprehensive Plan designates this site as “Mixed Residential & Commercial.” The Mixed Residential and Commercial designation accommodates a diverse range of housing, nonresidential uses, commercial uses, neighborhood retail and office uses, parks and recreation areas, and civic uses at a density of 5 to 29 dwelling units per acre, and may be assigned R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4; C-1 and O zoning. Per PMC 25.215.015 maximum gross density of any proposed development within any zoning district, expressed as dwelling units per acre, shall be no less than the corresponding minimum density expressed in the Comprehensive Plan land use density table, and no greater than the corresponding maximum density expressed in the Comprehensive Plan land use density table, except as provided in Chapter 25.161 PMC. 7.

The site was assigned C-1 zoning in 2003 via Ordinances 3615. 7. The City’s 2018-2038 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the site as “Mixed Residential & Commercial”. Page 67 of 200 4 8. The “Mixed Residential and Commercial” designation may be developed with a combination of single-family dwellings, patio homes, townhouses, and condominiums. TENTATIVE CONCLUSIONS BASED ON INITIAL STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT Before recommending approval or denial of a rezone, the Hearing Examiner must develop findings of fact from which to draw its conclusions based upon the criteria listed in PMC 25.210.060. The criteria are as follows: 1. The proposal is in accordance with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. The Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the lot “Mixed Residential and Commercial.” A change in zoning would be consistent with the comprehensive plan Land Use Map designation for the site and could further the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan such as: • Housing Policy H-1-A: Allow for a full range of housing including single family homes, townhouses, condominiums, apartments, and manufactured housing, accessory dwelling units, zero lot line, planned unit developments etc. The current zoning only allows for a specific type of development, C-1 uses on a main floor with residential units above and must be approved through a special permit. A rezone to R-3 would allow for a variety of housing types including all those listed in this policy. • Housing Policy H-1-B: Higher intensity housing should be located near arterials and neighborhood or community shopping facilities and employment areas. The proposed rezone could make it easier to develop the land to the required density of the Comprehensive Plan and the property is approximately 0.1 miles from Sandifur Parkway to the north and 0.1 miles from Road 68 to the east. Significant portions of land to the south, north and east are zoned and designated for strictly commercial uses, the proposal could allow for higher density development adjacent to these uses. • Land Use Policy LU-4-B: Encourage infill and higher density uses within proximity to major travel corridors and public transportation service areas. The proposal is located in close proximity to both Sandifur Parkway and Road 68 which are classified as arterial roads. The proposed rezone may provide avenues for development at a higher density than under the current zoning designation. 2. The effect of the proposal on the immediate vicinity will not be materially detrimental. This application for rezone is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element and meets the intent of the Goals and Policies for the property. A development action affecting the site would be subject to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) and impacts to the natural and built environment, including neighboring properties, would be considered and mitigated through the SEPA process. 3. There is merit and value in the proposal for the community as a whole. The proposed zoning designation is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map and the Goals and Policies as adopted by the Pasco City Council. The proposal includes infill development and promotes the goals of the Mixed Residential & Commercial Land Use Map Designation. 4. Conditions should be imposed in order to mitigate any significant adverse impacts from the proposal. The rezone application and anticipated project are subject to the regulations and requirements of the Pasco Municipal Code and the City of Pasco Design and Construction Standards. As such, no conditions Page 68 of 200 5 should be imposed; any future development will be evaluated for significant adverse impacts at the time of a development application, which will also be subject to review under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA). 5. A Concomitant Agreement should be entered into between the City and the petitioner, and if so, the terms and conditions of such an agreement. No Concomitant Agreement is considered necessary for this application. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends based on the Findings of Fact and Conclusions herein, that Lot 2 of Binding Site Plan 2019-03; (Parcel 116-140-050), in Pasco WA., be rezoned from C-1 (Retail Business District) to R-4 (High- Density Residential).

III. FISCAL IMPACT: 2021-2022 Adopted Biennial Budget allocated to this project: $5M (Amount is for the whole LID) 2023-2024 Adopted Biennial Budget allocated to this project: $17.364M (Amount is for the whole LID) Total Adopted Budget $22.364M (Amount is for the whole LID) IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: The East Urban Growth Area (UGA) Expansion Sewer Local Improvement District (LID) No. 152 project has been developed to provide the opportunity to serve all parcels within the expanded UGA east of Road 68. This area encompasses several large parcels (10 acres or more, with short- and long- term development plans). City staff held a series of preliminary meetings with landowners and representatives of the parcels included in the originally proposed LID boundary. On May 2, 2022, Council approved Resolution No. 4174, declaring its intent to Page 98 of 200 order the improvements of the East Urban Growth Area Expansion (sewer mains and lift station) and to form an LID. On May 23, 2022, Council Approved Ordinance No. 4592, which formed LID No. 152 ordering the sanitary sewer and lift station improvements within the UGA Expansion east of Road 68. The City then proceeded forward with assessment of the cost and expense of carrying out those improvements against the properties specially benefited by the proposed improvements. To allow the project to move forward expeditiously into construction, the unified scope of work was broken into four phases, each of them packaged into a set of bid documents and treated as an individual construction contract.  Phase 1 installed six bore trench crossings with casings. Three crossings were installed underneath the BNSF railroad, two were installed underneath N. Glade Road, and one was installed underneath N. Railroad Avenue. This construction project totaled $3,178,063.39 and was accepted by Council via Resolution No. 4458.  Phase 2 installed gravity sewer main from the north end of the UGA east to N. Glade Road and south along N. Glade Road to the location of the future lift station. This construction project totaled $1,496,859.67 and was accepted by Council via Resolution No. 4434.  Phase 3 built a sewer lift station at the corner of N. Glade Road and Burns Road (extended). This project also installed a set of force mains to connect the new system to the existing gravity collection systems located along Foster Wells Road and Capital Avenue, and at Foster Wells Road and Industrial Way. This construction project totaled $3,755,604.36 and was accepted by Council via Resolution No. 4524.  Phase 4 installed the remainder of the gravity sewer trunk mains serving the properties to the west of the lift station and N. Glade Road. This construction project totaled $6,344,953.40 and was accepted by Council via Resolution No. 4525. City staff held two subsequent meetings with the owners of the properties involved in the LID No. 152 to share the updated costs as the project progressed. One meeting was conducted as a Pre-Construction meeting, held on August 28, 2023, and the most recent meeting was held towards the end of construction on June 26, 2024. A public hearing is required to present the Final Assessment Roll to allow the City to confirm and levy the assessments. City staff is currently finalizing the formal assessment costs for the LID. When complete, written notification of the public hearing for the Final Assessment Roll for the East UGA Expansion Sewer LID No. 152 will be mailed to all property owners and will be published in the newspaper, once the date and time is approved through Resolution. This item is for scheduling purposes only, and is not finalizing any costs, assessed values, or closing the LID No.152. Page 99 of 200 V. DISCUSSION: Staff recommends approval of the proposed Resolution, which sets a Public Hearing date of March 3, 2025, at 7:00 PM, for Council consideration of the Final Assessment Roll for Local Improvement District No. 152.

ATTACHMENT(S): Proposed Resolution Interlocal Agreement between the City of Pasco and Port of Pasco for Airport Police Services Proposed Ordinance II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: MOTION: I move to approved Resolution No. 4549, authorizing the City Manager to execute an interlocal agreement with the Port of Pasco to provide airport police services. If the ILA is approved, then MOTION: I move to adopt Ordinance No. 4753, amending the 2025-2026 Biennial Operating Budget (Ordinance No. 4749) by providing supplement thereto; Fund, General the in City's additional provide to appropriation allocating funding for the addition of four full-time employees to the Police Department staffing to ensure effective collaboration with airport and federal authorities and improve public safety services and, further, authorize publication by summary only. III. FISCAL IMPACT: The addition of four (4) police officer positions requires an increase in appropriations in the addition of General Fund of approximately $1,509,787. This expense is primarily composed of labor costs. A lesser portion of the expense is tied to the provision of training, uniforms and equipment, and overhead associated with interfund services supplied by other General Fund Page 114 of 200 departments, including finance, human resources, and information technology support. The interlocal agreement outlines a methodology for reimbursement of costs associated with the supply of airport police services. In the first year of service, reimbursement is not fully met. This revenue shortfall is related to the City absorbing half of the cost associated with completion of Basic Law Enforcement Academy. Also, the cost of labor associated with field officer training is not reimbursed by the Port of Pasco. Both training elements occur prior to staff availability for assignment to the airport. For this biennium, expenses are expected to be in excess of revenues by approximately $105K. The second year of agreement is expected to result in full reimbursement. The cost, and associated revenue, will be monitored and reviewed annually. IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: For over two decades, the Pasco Police Department (Pasco PD) has supported the Tri-Cities Regional Airport to provide police services, including the processing of police records, evidence management, and law enforcement response when needed. These efforts have supported compliance with federal security regulations and ensured public safety at the airport. Recently, the Port of Pasco Police Department, previously responsible for dedicated security and enforcement at the airport, was disbanded. This shift necessitates the formalization of Pasco PD's role through a proposed Interlocal Agreement with the Port of Pasco. The plan outlines the assignment of four full-time Pasco PD officers to provide security, routine enforcement, and emergency response. Oversight of these operations will be coordinated by the Pasco Chief of Police and managed on-site by the Field Operations Division Captain and District 1 Lieutenant. Officers assigned to the airport will receive specialized training to meet TSA and FAA requirements, and PPD will assume full responsibility for maintaining related records and operational support. V. DISCUSSION: The proposed Police Services Operating Plan and Interlocal Agreement aim to address the increased responsibilities stemming from the disbandment of the Port of Pasco Police Department. Under the new agreement, Pasco PD will formally provide comprehensive policing services, ensuring that public safety, federal compliance, and operational efficiency are maintained. The proposal includes the allocation of four full-time officers, specialized training for federal compliance, and resources to support additional Page 115 of 200 responsibilities. This will require the addition of four police officers, the expansion of departmental resources. The formalized agreement will enhance safety and ensure effective collaboration with airport and federal authorities. The Tri-Cities Regional Airport serves as a critical infrastructure for the region, and approving this plan is essential to uphold its security and operational integrity. This item was discussed at the December 9, 2024, Council Workshop.
