HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: Background As part of the City’s ongoing process improvement efforts, staff reviewed the recruitment and appointment process for City boards and commissions. These citizen advisory groups assist in delivering municipal services and provide Page 25 of 321 recommendations that support the City Council’s policy decision-making. The Pasco Municipal Code requires the Mayor to appoint qualified individuals to boards and commissions, subject to Council confirmation. The last process amendment occurred on October 24, 2022, through Resolution No. 4262. Following a comprehensive review, staff identified opportunities to streamline the timelines, predictable reduced process, recruitment emphasizing administrative burden, and improved onboarding for new members. V. DISCUSSION: Staff identified the following opportunities for consideration: 1. Transition to semi-annual recruitment cycle, spring and fall, to reduce the frequency of recruitments while developing concentrated efforts for larger reach. 2. Prior to advertising for upcoming terms, have Subcommittee determine if eligible incumbents require an interview. If not, and the incumbent wishes to continue, incumbent would proceed directly to appointment. This would eliminate interested candidates from applying for a position that will be filled of reviewing subcommittee time by and incumbent the reduce application materials. 3. Modify start dates of certain City boards and commissions to align terms to begin either January 1 or July 1 to match the proposed semi-annual cycle. This provides the opportunity to develop an onboarding program. The first two items for consideration provided the greatest impact to the process and can be achieved through resolution while the second will provide consistency to support efforts and concentrated efforts for marketing recruitment opportunities and needs to be completed by ordinance.

Council could approve ordinance modifying start dates of certain City Boards and Commissions and leave existing recruitment process. 3. Council could retain existing start dates and recruitment process (status quo). Next Steps Staff is ready to: 1. with the Mayor for his selection of subcommittee for the fall Work recruitment. 2. Identify with subcommittee 1) selection of interview dates for vacancies and 2) provide a list of eligible incumbents with expiring terms to identify those in which should be approached for their interest in continuing to serve. 3.

ATTACHMENT(S): Proposed Resolution Planning Commission Minutes Dated 08/21/2025 II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No. 4654, approving the 2026 HOME Investment Program Allocation and Work Plan III. FISCAL IMPACT: Pasco's share of Federal HOME funds is $263,000 (including program income) IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: The City of Pasco entered into a HOME Consortium Agreement with the Cities of Kennewick and Richland in 1996 making the city eligible for federal HOME funds through Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Every three (3) years, during the renewal cycle, member cities are given the opportunity to withdraw from the consortium, make changes to the cooperative agreement, or select a new lead agency. In August 2025, Council approved a new HOME Consortium Agreement. Each member city is allocated an equal share of the entitlement after 10% is set aside for the lead agency to administer the program (Richland) and 15% set aside for the Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO). When funds are allocated, it's important that they are used in compliance with the regulations set forth by the HOME Investment Partnership Program, as well as in alignment with Pasco's own municipal codes and strategic plans. The HOME funds target low-moderate income census tracts (201, 202, 203, and Page 71 of 321 204) which helps ensure that the allocation is both strategic and equitable, directing them to areas where they can facilitate significant improvements in living conditions for low and moderate income residents. If HOME funds cannot be applied to priority areas, then they are used as needed within the city limits for the benefit of eligible residents, which allows for flexibility in addressing housing needs while still targeting the overall goals of the City of Pasco and the HOME Program. Previously, the funds were allocated to provide assistance with down payments and tenant based rental subsidies. V. DISCUSSION: Pasco’s HOME entitlement funding is estimated at $263,000 (including program income) and will be allocated across three key programs: Community Housing Improvement Program (CHIP) – First-Time Homebuyer Assistance: A down payment assistance loan program that helps eligible low-to-moderate income households with down payment and closing costs to purchase a home. Tenant-Based Rental Assistance (TBRA): A rental subsidy program that helps individual households afford housing costs such as rent and utilities. Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation: A loan program designed to protect household health and safety by preserving and restoring the integrity of homes, ensuring they meet current code standards. Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the 2026 HOME Investment Program Allocation and Annual Work Plan as recommended by the Planning Commission. Alternatives: 1. Approval of the resolution. 2. Reject the resolution. This would result in City losing critical funding for affordable housing. Additionally, as mentioned before, Council passed a Consortium Agreement for Pasco to be part of with City of Kennewick and Richland in August, 2025. This item was discussed during the September 22, 2025 Workshop. Staff recommends approval of the 2026 HOME Investment Program Allocation and Work Plan.

ATTACHMENT(S): Resolution Draft - Updated Interlocal Agreement - Legal Services Current 2023 Interlocal Agreement II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: MOTION: I move to approved Resolution No. 4656, authorizing the City Manager to Execute an amended Interlocal Agreement between the Pasco Public Facilities District and the City of Pasco for administrative, financial, and legal services. III. FISCAL IMPACT: None IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: The Pasco Public Facilities District (PPFD) was initially formed on July 15, 2002, by City Council through Ordinance No. 3558 and was granted all powers provided by the Washington State law pursuant to RCW 35.57.010. In April 2022, the PPFD Board successfully placed a ballot measure on the special election asking the voters whether there should be an additional 2/10ths of 1% sales and use tax imposed to fund an aquatics facility, a long- term vote. the of majority a City passed which goal, Council The with successful outcome of the election has enabled the PPFD Board to begin planning efforts to design, build, and operate an aquatics facility. In 2023, to assist and support the construction of the aquatic center the City Page 81 of 321 and PPFD Board entered into an updated interlocal agreement (ILA), where the City would provide additional services including City Clerk, City Attorney, Finance, Senior Support Staff, and other City officials, employees or agents as necessary in exchange for payment of services by PPFD as outlined in the attached interlocal agreement. V. DISCUSSION: Due to notice of termination for City Legal services by Kerr Law Group, the PPFD board is requesting to update the current ILA, which expires December 31, 2025, to include the option of either continuing to use the City Attorney for legal services or contract for their own legal services. This would ensure PPFD continued legal representation regardless of future City Attorney availability. Additionally the ILA would be extended until either: September 30, 2026 The Certificate of Occupancy is received for the facility Updated ILA replaces current ILA Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the updated interlocal agreement and resolution as presented to ensure continued legal representation for the PPFD Board. Alternatives: Ask staff or PPFD Board for additional information. Reject request for updated ILA and have PPFD continue to use City Legal Service provider. Impacts: Delay may cause the PPFD Board to not have legal service during high demand construction phase. Continued use of same Legal Service for both agencies could result in conflict of interest if City performs future aquatic center management and operations and legal dispute arises. This item was discussed during the September 22, 2025, Workshop. Staff recommends approval amended ILA with the PPFD.

ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No. 4658, interfund loans form the Equipment Replacement Governmental to Community Development Block Grant. III. FISCAL IMPACT: N/A IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: The City received a variable rate loan from U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) for $3,781,000 on May 26, 2021 for the Peanuts Park Rehabilitation Project. In conjunction with the loan, the City receives annual Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) allocation of $245,000 to support annual debt service. Allocation for 2026 will be $250,000. However, fluctuating and rising interest rates over the past few years have resulted in higher debt service costs, significantly exceeding the CDBG allocation. The amount exceeding the CDBG allocations have been covered by General Fund. The total covered by General Fund since 2023 through year-to-date 2025 is $299,846. HUD and the City worked through process to establish a fixed rate on the loan beginning in summer of 2024 with expected completion of year-end 2024. This was postponed by HUD ultimately effort was paused mid-January 2025, Page 105 of 321 however they expected to resume effort later in 2025. Due to uncertainty on if and when this will resume and high rates, the option of refinancing this loan internally is a consideration. V. DISCUSSION: The City has the option to restructure this loan by paying off HUD and replacing it with an internal loan from a City fund at a fixed rate. This approach would establish the City as the lender, with the loan issued at a market rate that Equipment The fund. the lending income interest generates for Replacement Governmental Fund currently has sufficient capacity to support this option. Restructuring the while Fund General to costs reduce would loan the simultaneously creating new revenue for the Equipment Replacement Fund through interest earnings. In addition, establishing a fixed rate would provide greater budget stability for the General Fund.

A budget adjustment for this action will be incorporated in the mid-biennium budget adjustment process. Staff is recommending internal fund loan at 4% fixed interest for a 14 year repayment term. 14 years is the remaining term from the current HUD loan. Staff further recommends Council approve this funding option to provide long- term stability and financial benefit to the City. Alternative: Leave loan as is and continue with significant variable interest expense for Page 106 of 321 remaining 14 years of loan term. The financial impact of this alternative is unknown due to the length of time (14 yrs) and volatility of rates. This item was discussed during the September 22, 2025 Workshop.

ATTACHMENT(S): Presentation Draft Ordinance II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: CONDUCT PUBLIC HEARING III. FISCAL IMPACT: Fatbeam has paid the fee required by PMC 15.80.020 and 3.35.115. IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: Background: Pasco Municipal Code (PMC) provides for fiber optic franchises within Title 15 Telecommunications. By following the guidelines found therein, the City can allow use of the public right-of-way that benefits the people of Pasco. A fiber optic franchise falls under the general provisions of PMC Chapter 15.40 and does not qualify as either a cable system franchise, which would be covered by PMC Chapter 15.96 or a small cell system, covered under PMC Section 15.40.050 and others. Fatbeam, LLC has fiber optic cable facilities within the City's right-of-way and had a franchise agreement from March 2015 to March 2025. The renewal of this franchise agreement requires a public hearing per PMC Subsection 15.20.080(2). Impact (other than fiscal): Page 136 of 321 Allowing telecommunications franchises within public right-of-way benefits those living and working with Pasco. This franchise requires that Fatbeam obtain permits for construction, installation, maintenance, repair or removal of specific facilities. All infrastructure is installed underground for this utility. V. DISCUSSION: Recommendation: Following the public hearing, staff recommends approval of the fiber optic cable franchise agreement renewal for a ten-year term with Fatbeam, LLC. Constraints (Time or other considerations): Fatbeam, LLC's application was considered complete as of September 29, 2025. PMC 15.40.100 states that franchise applications shall be acted upon by the City within 90 days. This schedule is within those guidelines. Next Steps: a hold must Council franchise considering Before public renewal, hearing. At September 15, 2025, Meeting, Council approved Resolution No. 4649 setting the public hearing for October 6, 2025. Based on Council's actions tonight, staff is prepared to bring the franchise agreement renewal Ordinance to the October 20, 2025, Meeting for Council's adoption. Alternatively, Council may: - Continue the Public Hearing to a future date for further consideration. - Deny the franchise based on criteria that serve community interest.

No member of the public testi?ed at the hearing. The following exhibits were admitted into the record: 8.1.Ex.A Staff Report; 8.2.Ex.B Remainder of Planning Staff File. ANALYSIS 9.1.Request: 9.1.1.Applicant Leticia Marin Arroyo wishes to rezone a property located at 613 W Clark Street (Parcel 112054385)in Pasco,WA 99301 from C-l (Retail Business)to R—l(Low-Density Residential).The site comprises approximately .16 acres (7,000.02 square feet). 9.1.2.The underlying Land Use Code has recently been amended to “Low-Density Residential,” which speci?es 3 to 6 dwelling units (DU)per acre. 9.2.History: 9.2.1.The site was platted into lots 25 and 26 back in 1906,as part of the Gerry ’8 Addition to Pasco. In the time since it was platted,both of those lots have since been aggregated into one parcel. The property was originally zoned R—2Residential through Ordinance No.435 back in 1938. The zoning changed to the current zoning of C-1 through Ordinance No.529 in 1941. 9.2.2.There originally was a residential home located that was demolished back in 1989 and was vacant until the current mixed-use structure was constructed back in 2020 (B18-2887).The mixed—usestructure itself was approved by a special permit in 2018 (SP2018-004).The applicant is requesting the zone change to R—l to expand the residential component to the lower level.This can only be accomplished through a zone change to residential. 9.2.3.The business that was located on the ground level has since closed. 9.3.Public health,safety and general welfare: 9.3.1.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. 22025-007 Arroyo Rezone Page 2 of 4 Page 174 of 321 9.4.Effect on the value and character of the adjacent property and the Comprehensive Plan: 9.4.1.A change in zoning would be consistent with the comprehensive plan Land Use Map Low- Density Residential designation for the site.Accordingto the table in Pasco Municipal Code (PMC)25 .215.015,the Low-Density Residential classi?cation is intended to accommodate “[a]Variety of residential housing at a density of 3 to 6 dwelling units per acre,”and allows for R—S-ZO,R—S-12,R—S-l,R—l,R—l-A,and R—1-A2zoning designations.A move away from nonconforming uses and toward conforming uses is anticipated to stabilize property values in and enhance the character of the neighborhood. 9.5.Effect on the property owner or owners if the request is not granted: 9.5.1.1f the property remains with the current C-1 zoning designation,the applicant stated in their application that it would be dif?cult to maintain the current con?guration of having a business located on the ground ?oor with residential located above. 9.5.2.1f no business is operated from the ground ?oor of the structure,the space would apparently remain unused and the property underutilized. 9.6.The Comprehensive Plan land use designation for the property: 9.6.1.The City of Pasco Comprehensive Plan designates this site as “Low—DensityResidential.” The Low-Density Residential designation accommodates a variety of residential housing at a density of 3 to 6 dwelling units per acre,and may be assigned R-S-20,R—S—12,R—S-l,R—l, R-l—A,or R—l-A2zoning. 9.6.2.Per PMC 25.215.015 the 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. 10.Public notice of this hearing was posted in the Tri-City Herald on July 30,2025. 11.ULTIMATE FINDINGS 11.1.The proposal is in accordance with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. 11.1.1.The Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the lot “Low—Density Residential District.”A change in zoning would be consistent with the comprehensive plan Land Use Map designation for the site.According to the table in Pasco Municipal Code (PMC)25.215.015,the Low-Density Residential classi?cation is intended to accommodate “[a]Variety of residential housing at a density of 3 to 6 dwelling units per acre,”and allows for R—S-ZO,R—S—12,R—S-l,R—l,R—l—A,and R—l—A2zoning designations. 11.1.2.In changing the zoning to R—l,the property will serve as a buiTer between the increasing commercial uses to the south and the residential areas to the north.It will further the use of W Clark St as a buffer between residential and commercial uses as shown in the Comprehensive Plan Land Use map.These facts support Land Use Goal 2,Policy D: Encourage the use of buffers or transition zones between the increasing commercial uses to the south and residential areas to the north. 11.1.3.Changing the zoning to R—1will allow for an increase in the amount of land zoned for residential use,supporting Land Use Goal 5,Policy A:Allow a variety of residential densities throughout the UGA. 22025—007 Arroyo Rezone Page 3 of 4 Page 175 of 321 12. 13. 11.1.4.Changing the zoning to R-l will increase the number of single-family homes within the local area,supporting Housing Goal 1,Policy 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. 11.2.The effect of the proposal on the immediate vicinity will

the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map. 11.4.No conditions should be imposed in order to mitigate any signi?cant adverse impacts from the proposal. 11.4.1.The rezone application and anticipated project

ATTACHMENT(S): Ordinance Exhibit A Hearing Examiner Recommendation Exhibit B II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: MOTION: I move to adopt Ordinance No. 4793, assigning R-3 Medium Density Residential zoning to SG Land Management LLC portion of the annexation area, and, Examiner Hearing as by recommended further, the authorize publication by summary only. III. FISCAL IMPACT: None IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: On August 13, 2025, the Hearing Examiner held a public hearing to review the application for R-3 (Medium Density Residential) zoning for the SG Land Management LLC portion of the annexation area, as shown on the proposed zoning map (Exhibit B). Pursuant to PMC 25.210.060(2), the Hearing Examiner issued a recommendation to approve the zoning determination, consistent with the Broadmoor Master Plan, which was forwarded to the City Council for final action. Ordinance adopted Council City 2, 2025, No. September On the 4786, annexing approximately 50.09 acres, including a portion of Burns Road. This zoning determination pertains to 22 acres within the annexed area, generally Page 225 of 321 located south of Burns Road, east of Shoreline Road, west of Road 122, and north of the future Sandifur Parkway. In accordance with PMC 25.220.020(1)(d), the Hearing Examiner’s recommendation follows the City Council’s review of the annexation petition. The Council will subsequently adopt a separate ordinance to establish the zoning designation. The subject site is currently zoned RS-20 under Franklin County jurisdiction and is proposed to be zoned R-3 upon annexation into the City. The Pasco Broadmoor Master Plan designates the area as Medium Density Residential. The adoption of R-3 zoning following the annexation ordinance will facilitate development of a cohesive residential neighborhood aligned with the City’s long-term planning goals. Surrounding Annexation and Zoning History: North: Adjacent properties to the north remain unannexed but are within the Urban Growth Area (UGA) and designated as Low Density Residential in the City’s Comprehensive Plan. These parcels are primarily developed with single-family homes on half-acre lots. East: The neighboring property to the east is included in the proposed annexation area and shares the same Medium Density Residential land use designation. Further east, properties were annexed in 1998 via Ordinance No. 3305 and have since been developed with single-family residential housing. These properties are designated as Low Density Residential in the City’s Broadmoor Master Plan. West: Properties west remain unannexed and are designated Mixed Residential/Commercial in the Broadmoor Master Plan. These properties support a mix of agricultural and single-family residential uses. Additionally, a parcel southwest of the proposed annexation area is designated for Open Space/Parks. South: Parcel 126160174, located directly south, remains unannexed and is currently in agricultural use. Further south, however, are annexed properties developed with a concrete batch plant. The Broadmoor Master Plan designates these southern properties as Mixed Residential/Commercial and Medium Density Residential. V. DISCUSSION: Pursuant to PMC 25.210.060 (1) (a) through (e) the Hearing Examiner shall make and enter findings from the records and conclusions thereof which support its recommendation and find whether or not: Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan The proposed R-3 zoning is consistent with the Medium Density Residential Page 226 of 321 designation in the Broadmoor Master Plan, which provides more detailed and coordinated guidance than the Comprehensive Plan. The Plan was adopted, along with the Broadmoor Overlay District, on April 17, 2023. Land Use Policy LU-2-B of the Comprehensive Plan calls for facilitating planned growth within the UGA. The Broadmoor Master Plan envisions a mixed-use, diverse community designed for efficient bicycle, pedestrian, and vehicle circulation, supporting a substantial share of the City’s future growth through a more compact development pattern. The Medium-Density Residential designation is intended to accommodate a variety of housing types, including small-lot single-family homes (attached and detached), duplexes, and multiplexes. Compatibility with Immediate Vicinity The proposed zoning determination is not anticipated to have a materially detrimental impact on the surrounding area. Annexation and zoning of the property will be compatible with neighboring residential uses, whether located within city limits or in unincorporated areas of the county. The request aligns with the Broadmoor Master Plan’s Medium Density Residential designation, and City applicable meet to required future will development any be development standards-including setbacks, buffering, and traffic mitigation-to minimize impacts on adjacent properties. Community Benefit Assigning R-3 zoning supports the Broadmoor Master Plan and accommodates planned residential growth. The proposal will enable efficient infrastructure extension developers, County the neighboring coordination through with property and the City, promote orderly development within the UGA, and contribute to a more diverse housing supply, enhancing both community livability and long-term planning objectives. Conditions of Approval No special conditions are recommended. Future development will be regulated through infrastructure, traffic, address that City standard requirements environmental concerns, and neighborhood compatibility. Concomitant Agreement A concomitant agreement is not necessary for this request. The proposal meets negotiated additional requiring applicable standards all without conditions. Conclusion & Recommendation Staff finds that the requested R-3 zoning is consistent with the Broadmoor Master criteria. Plan, surrounding development, and applicable zoning It supports orderly growth within the UGA and aligns with the City's long-term Page 227 of 321 residential development goals. Staff and the Hearing Examiner recommend the City Council approve the proposed R-3 zoning designation and adopt the associated Ordinance.

ATTACHMENT(S): Resolution II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No. 4660, interfund loan from the Economic Development Fund to Medical/Dental Insurance Fund. III. FISCAL IMPACT: Medical/Dental Insurance Fund - In 2025, receive loan of $6.5M. In 2026, approximately $4.4M increase in revenues funded by increased premiums, both employer and employee portions. Loan repayment expense of $789K starting in 2026 thru 2035. Economic Development Fund - In 2025, lend $6.5M and begin receiving repayment revenue in 2026. Total interest revenue by end of loan term will be approximately $1.4M. Interest revenue can be less if loan is repaid early. IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: The City of Pasco operates a self-funded medical insurance program that has historically been financially sustainable and cost-efficient compared to private insurance options. However, several factors have significantly impacted the financial condition of the program: Flat Revenues: No premium increases have been imposed since fall of 2014, creating a stagnant per-employee revenue stream. Composite Premium Structure: The City currently uses composite premium rates, where the same rate applies regardless of whether coverage family. is for an employee only or for an entire While Page 248 of 321 administratively simple, this approach is less aligned with industry standards, which typically use tiered rates to balance contributions. The composite structure has contributed to higher cost burdens on the fund as family enrollments have grown. Increased Claims: Post-COVID "catch-up" medical treatments, along with growth in the workforce and covered dependents, have driven claim activity upward. Industry and Administrative Pressures: External disruptions in claims processing and general health care inflation have added to costs. the within spending to deficit have pressures combined These led Medical/Dental Insurance Fund. Additionally, State law (WAC 200-110-040) requires that the City maintain a reserve equal to 16 weeks of program expenses, a threshold currently at risk without intervention. V. DISCUSSION: To address these challenges, staff has initiated a comprehensive review of benefits and premium rate structures. As part of this corrective action, medical premiums (both the employer portion and the employee portion) will be increased during the upcoming open enrollment period. These increases are intended to strengthen the long-term solvency of the plan, help ensure repayment of the loan, and prevent a similar financial shortfall in the future. However, immediate action is necessary to stabilize the fund and maintain required reserves. City Council is asked to consider authorizing an interfund loan from the Economic Development Fund to the Medical/Dental Insurance Fund to stabilize the City’s self-funded medical plan, address deficit spending, and ensure compliance with State reserve requirements. Interfund loans are regularly used as a financing tool between City's funds. The fund in need can receive loans with reasonable interest rates and no loan origination costs, whereas the fund loaning the funds will receive usually market or higher rates than what City's investment options generate. approximately with $6.5M for be proposed loan interfund The $4M would attributed to required reserves. The term would be for 10 years at 4%. If the Medical/Dental Insurance Fund generates surpluses in future years through plan adjustments, low claims or rate changes, additional payments may be applied to repay the loan faster, reducing long-term interest costs. Proposed repayment schedule is as follows: Page 249 of 321 Year Interest Principal Ending Balance Annual Amt 2026 $250,179.89 $539,532.18 $5,960,467.82 $789,712.07 2027 $228,198.52 $561,513.56 $5,398,954.26 $789,712.08 2028 $205,321.59 $584,390.49 $4,814,563.77 $789,712.08 2029 $181,512.62 $608,199.46 $4,206,364.32 $789,712.08 2030 $156,733.64 $632,978.44 $3,573,385.88 $789,712.08 2031 $130,945.12 $658,766.96 $2,914,618.92 $789,712.08 2032 $104,105.94 $685,606.14 $2,229,012.78 $789,712.08 2033 $76,173.28 $713,538.79 $1,515,473.98 $789,712.07 2034 $47,102.61 $742,609.46 $772,864.52 $789,712.07 2035 $16,847.56 $772,864.52 $0.00 $789,712.08 The interfund loan will stabilize the Medical/Dental Insurance Fund, ensuring adequate reserves and compliance with State requirements. The Economic Development Fund will earn interest on the loan at a competitive fixed rate, creating a revenue stream for the lending fund while preserving City resources internally. A budget adjustment for this action will be incorporated in the mid-biennium budget adjustment process. ALTERNATIVES 1. Approve the resolution as presented to authorize interfund loan. 2. Modify loan terms or amount. 3. Take no action—this would risk further deficit spending and noncompliance with State reserve requirements. In addition, failure to maintain adequate reserves may result in the State issuing a cease and desist order for the self-funded medical program, which could jeopardize employee health coverage and require costly transition to an outside insurance provider. Page 250 of 321 Resolution – Interfund Loan - 1 RESOLUTION NO. _____ A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF PASCO, WASHINGTON, AUTHORIZING INTERFUND LOANS FROM THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FUND TO MEDICAL/DENTAL INSURANCE FUND. WHEREAS, pursuant to RCW 35.33.121, the City Council of the City of Pasco finds it to be in the City’s best interest to provide an interfund loan from the Economic Development Fund to the Medical/Dental Insurance Fund for the purpose of stabilizing medical plan and meeting State reserve requirements; and WHEREAS, the City of Pasco maintains a self-funded medical plan that has historically provided a financially sustainable program with the added benefit of cost avoidance associated with service fees from private insurance provider; and WHEREAS, no premium increases have been imposed since 2014 resulting in a flat per employee revenue stream; and WHEREAS, expenses have increased due to deferral of medical treatment resulting from catchup claims related to the COVID pandemic, as well as increases in claimants in the fund related to workforce, and associated dependent growth over recent years; and WHEREAS, expenses have increased due to external factors that disrupted the claims submittal and payment cycle as well as the impact of general health care industry inflation; and WHEREAS, the impact of both internal and external expense increases is having a material impact on expenditures to the point of deficit spending; and WHEREAS, State law, WAC 200-110-040, requires reserve amount equal to 16 weeks of program expenses; and WHEREAS, an initiative is underway to research, evaluate and plan appropriate amendment to benefits and insurance premium rates.

ATTACHMENT(S): Presentation Reduced Connection Fee Option II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Brooke Tacia, Project Manager with Bowman Consulting Group and Maria Serra, City of Pasco Public Works Director will present the Utility Rates and Connection Fee Study. III. FISCAL IMPACT: All scenarios presented will increase utility rates and connection fees for City's water and sanitary sewer utility users. IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: As an enterprise fund, a utility is treated as an independent business, separate from the general government services, both in accounting practices and legal requirements. It is standard for utility systems to conduct rate studies on a periodic basis to ensure they provide adequate revenue for the utilities and that the system conforms with laws, obligations, and conditions that impact its operation. A rate study evaluates annual revenue necessary to fund all financial obligations like operating expenses, debt service payments, and capital investments. Furthermore, the system is required to meet and maintain certain financial targets like debt service coverage ratios and reserve balances to satisfy the system's debt holders as well as fund emergency operations. Rate studies are particularly critical to evaluate revenue sufficiency over a multi-year Page 253 of 321 period. Utility systems are infrastructure investment heavy and long-term financial analysis of the systems is critical to avoid deferred maintenance, degraded service levels and/or safety, and avoid significant and unplanned increases more avoiding for up make to short a within rates in period reasonable increases along the way. City staff has conducted a study of the City's water and sewer utility rates. To assist of consulting financial a services in engaged staff effort, this the organization, Bowman Consulting Group. The review entailed an in-depth evaluation of the finances of the two utilities, necessary capital expenditures, current and projected operational costs, sufficiency of current rates, and rate adjustments necessary meet the requirements of the two utilities and bond coverage. V. DISCUSSION: The City’s water and sewer utilities are facing significant capital investment needs to both replace aging infrastructure and support future growth. A major driver is the replacement of the Butterfield Water Treatment Plant, originally constructed in 1937 and operational since 1943. This project alone is estimated to cost between $220 million and $260 million. Between 2025 and 2034, total capital needs are projected at $292 million for water service and $131 million for sanitary sewer services. Staff has deferred some projects to help minimize rate impacts on customers, with plan to bring those projects forward if those infrastructures fail during the intervening years. Without growth in the customer base, the full burden of these costs would fall on existing ratepayers. To reduce financing costs, staff is pursuing over $80 million in low-interest loans, which could save ratepayers more than $50 million over the life of the debt compared to traditional revenue bonds. These savings are factored into the rate scenarios presented to Council. If successful, these loans could allow for future rate reductions. This presentation results in projected monthly rate increases (Water & Sewer Combined) at following levels: 2026: $9–$11 2027: $11–$13 2028: $9–$13 2029: $9 irrigation to increase an March, also Council In water approved rates, averaging $3/month. Irrigation service currently covers about one-third of City residents. Additionally, Council will soon receive a report on the Ambulance Page 254 of 321 Utility and potential fee adjustments. This rate study also addresses connection fees, which have historically been low and unpredictable. The revised methodology aligns with industry standards by basing fees on meter size rather than lot size or frontage. This change will result in significant increases, reflecting the true cost of existing and future system capacity and ensuring future customers contribute fairly. While comparisons to other cities are useful, they often overlook key differences in infrastructure life cycles. For example, Pasco is currently replacing a major treatment plant, while another city may have completed such a project decades ago or may face it in the near future. These timing differences significantly affect rate structures. Balancing the need to maintain reliable service, plan for growth under the Growth Management Act, and remain competitive in rates and fees is a complex challenge. Brooke Tacia, Project Manager from Bowman Consulting Group and Maria Serra, City's Public Works Director will present the full rate study and options to Council at the October 6th Regular Meeting.

ATTACHMENT(S): Section 8 (excerpt) Pasco Design and Construction Standards and Specifications for Public Works Improvements (current policy location) Proposed City of Pasco Traffic Study Requirements for Development Projects (new policy) II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Discussion and presentation only. No action requested at this time. III. FISCAL IMPACT: N/A IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: Traffic study requirements for development projects have historically been addressed in the City of Pasco Design and Construction Standards and Specifications for Public Works Improvements. These standards establish thresholds for when a Trip Generation Letter (TGL) or Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) is required. While the previous framework functioned, it created uncertainty for developers because the scoping provisions were not clearly defined. Members of the development community also expressed concern that the City of Pasco’s thresholds for requiring traffic studies were lower than those in surrounding municipalities. As a result, the extent of required work—and the associated costs—varied significantly between projects, making it difficult for developers to plan with predictable costs and timelines. Page 298 of 321 To address these concerns, staff reviewed policies from neighboring jurisdictions, including Richland and Kennewick, as well as other agencies across the state. The new policy aligns Pasco’s thresholds with regional standards, improves predictability, and more clearly defines the scope of required studies. A related change already approved by Council through Ordinance 4767 (June 2025) updated the City’s Transportation Impact Fee (TIF) program. That ordinance limited a to than rather TIF apply to the expanded citywide geographic area and ensured that the fee charged would mitigate most project impacts that fall below the thresholds for requiring a traffic study. V. DISCUSSION: The updated policy establishes the following thresholds: Trip Generation Letter (TGL): Required for projects generating 25 or more net new PM peak-hour trips. Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA): Required for projects generating 100 or more net new PM peak-hour trips or 1,000 daily trips. The TGL threshold remains unchanged at 25 trips. This ensures the City can continue to accurately evaluate concurrency under the Growth Management Act by understanding the quantity and distribution of trips from even smaller projects. The threshold for a full TIA has been increased from 50 peak-hour trips to 100 peak-hour trips. This change reduces unnecessary study requirements while maintaining alignment with regional practices. For context, both Richland and Kennewick apply similar thresholds. Additional clarifications include: A TIA is also required when a project impacts a high-crash location, proposes modifications to traffic control infrastructure, or is part of a phased or mixed-use development with cumulative trip generation exceeding the thresholds. The scope of required studies is now more clearly defined to focus on relevant facilities and intersections. This is not an expansion of scope, but rather a clarification that allows developers’ traffic engineers to be more efficient and provides predictability in study costs and timelines. the and thresholds study traffic clearer of combination the Overall, strengthened TIF program ensures that Pasco’s system of development review is fair, regionally consistent, and effective at mitigating growth-related transportation impacts. Page 299 of 321 Page 300 of 321 Adopted October 7, 2019 Ordinance Number 4457 Revised March 1, 2022 CITY OF PASCO DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR PUBLIC WORKS IMPROVEMENTS City of Pasco 525 North Third Avenue Pasco, WA 99301 (509) 545-3444 FAX (509) 543-5728 March 2022 Adopted October 7, 2019 Ordinance Number 4457 Revised March 1, 2022 Page 301 of 321 Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 8 - Street Improvements TRAFFIC STUDIES Definition Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) - A traffic study shall, at a minimum, be a thorough review of the intermediate and long-range effects of the proposed development on the City’s transportation system and may result in mitigation of those resulting impacts. A TIA is independent from a Traffic Impact Fee, and all mitigation identified in the TIA is in addition to a Traffic Impact Fee. Procedure The Developer shall provide a TIA prepared by a licensed Traffic Engineer for the City’s review (including City’s traffic engineering consultant), all at the Developer’s sole expense. Any and all clarifications or modifications to the TIA resulting from the City’s review, including work resulting from deeming the TIA incomplete or insufficient, shall be the Developer’s sole financial responsibility. Prior to initiating the TIA, the Developer may provide the scope and fee from the Developer’s traffic consultant, for the City’s review, and approval consideration. The City’s and/or agent’s review and approval of the scope will be at the Developer’s expense. Characteristics If 25 or more peak hour trips are generated by the development, a traffic impact analysis is mandatory. If less than 25 peak hour trips are generated by the development, the City Engineer may require a TIA to be completed on a project basis, at the Developer’s expense. This decision may be based upon the size of the proposed development, existing traffic/roadway conditions, existing and anticipated traffic volumes, trip distribution, accident history, property zoning, truck traffic percentage, event-based traffic, expressed community concern, and other factors relating to complexity, and location of proposed development. Transportation Impact Analysis Tiers TIER 1 - Tier 1 TIAs shall be performed for smaller developments where major impacts to the transportation system are not expected. Developments that generate fewer than 50 peak hour net new trips may be considered for Tier 1 TIAs depending on the context of the development location. At a minimum, the Tier 1 TIAs should include the following items: • Description of development (location, current and proposed land use and zoning) AM, PM, and Daily trip generation. If the highest number of trips generated by the development in a 1-hour period occurs outside the typical AM or PM peak periods (7-9 AM and 4-6 PM), then the peak hour of the generator trips shall be presented, in addition to the typical peak period trips. o Including calculations for removed trips, pass-by trips, internal trip capture, and diverted trips, if applicable. Trip adjustments must follow ITE guidelines and shall only be applied when current ITE data is available for the project's specific land use and time period. • Site plan review o Access locations o Bike/ped/vehicle circulation o Parking evaluation Adopted October 7, 2019 Ordinance Number 4457 Revised March 1, 2022 Page 8-4 Page 302 of 321 TIER 2 - Tier 2 TIAs shall be performed when the peak hour trip generation has 50 or more net new trips. Tier 2 TIAs should include everything for a Tier 1 TIA, plus the following items at a minimum: • Inventory of existing transportation network o Pedestrian, bicyclist, transit, and vehicular • Trip distribution • Surrounding area land uses and zoning • Existing Conditions (counts collected within previous 12 months) o Peak hours analyzed should be determined on a project-to-project basis, and may not necessarily coincide with the typical AM or PM peak hours (7-9 AM and 4-6 PM), at the City Engineer’s discretion. • No Build Conditions (future year of opening) o Using background growth and background project trips • Build Conditions (future year of opening) • Mitigation Conditions (if necessary) o Off-site, such as proportionate share of infrastructure improvements o On-site, such as traffic management plan (TMP) or parking management plan (PMP) • Safety analysis o Crash data for all study intersections from last 5 years o Discussion on crash trends, if any o Recommendations for safety improvements, if any Mitigation When a TIA indicates mitigation is needed, it shall include a timeline and specify the improvement(s) quantitative trigger(s). For example, if the TIA for a multi-phased plat indicates mitigation such as stop control is required at an intersection once 100 building permits are issued, and each phase includes 90 building permits, then the TIA shall state that the mitigation must be accomplished before the second phase is final platted. With approval by the City Engineer, the Developer may participate in a larger mitigation project, as determined by the City, at a level commensurate to the Developer’s required mitigated efforts. Such an allowance is solely based upon City acceptance and requires the Developer to produce a detailed, itemized Engineers Estimate which will be reviewed for acceptance consideration by the City. The itemized estimate must include item descriptions and units, consistent with the WSDOT Standard Specifications for Road, Bridge, and Municipal Construction. The Developer- elected participation in a larger mitigation will be documented in the plan approval conditions. Mitigation for plats, commercial properties, and/or individual parcels shall be as required in the plan approval conditions issued by the City and must be completed before City acceptance of the improvements, final plat approval (plats), and/or a Certificate of Occupancy (commercial properties and individual parcels) is provided. The Developer is responsible for all work including but not limited to design and construction meeting all applicable City standards.

The determination is based on anticipated trip generation, project scale, location, and site-specific considerations. At minimum, regardless of whether a Trip Generation Letter or Traffic Impact Analysis is required, all projects must provide the anticipated PM Peak Hour Trips generated. Trip generation shall be based on the most current version of the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual and must be certified by a Licensed Engineer. Trip Generation Letter (TGL) – When Required • When a project is expected to generate 25 net new peak-hour vehicle trips or greater. • When a change of use is proposed that results in 25 or more net new peak-hour trips compared to the existing or previous use, a Traffic Generation Letter shall be required. If the combined total of existing and proposed peak-hour trips exceeds 100, and the original use did not require a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA), then a TIA will be required as part of the project application. • When a project is in a sensitive area such as near schools, hospitals, or along high-volume roadways (20,000 ADT or higher). • When a project is part of a larger, phased development previously studied, each phase must be evaluated incrementally to ensure that the findings of original study remain valid. The TGL must include: • Project description and land use classification • Size of the development (square feet, units, etc.) • Estimated daily and peak-hour trips (using the latest ITE Trip Generation Manual) • Comparison with previous use (if applicable) • Basic information on access, circulation, and site context. Trip distribution. Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) – When Required • When a project will generate 100 or more new peak-hour vehicle trips, or 1,000 or more daily trips. • If a change of use project’s combined total of existing and proposed new peak-hour trips exceeds 100, and the original use did not require a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA), then a TIA will be required as part of the project application. • When a project adds trips to an intersection that is identified as high-crash location. A high- crash location is defined as a location where the 5-year average exceeds the City-wide 5-year average. • When a project proposes changes to public traffic control infrastructure such as traffic signals, roundabouts, stop-control configuration, or intersection geometry. Page 304 of 321 Community Development Department PO Box 293, 525 N 3rd Ave, Pasco, WA 99301 P: 509.545.3441 / F: 509.545.3499 • When a project is part of a larger phased or mixed-use development and the cumulative peak hour trips of the overall project warrant a TIA. • When a project may result in cumulative impacts when considered with other approved or pending developments. • When a project is determined by the Public Works Director, Community and Economic Developer Director, or Development Services Manager to have potentially significant transportation impacts not listed above. TIA Scoping Policy The City of Pasco requires that the scope of each Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) includes an evaluation of the following transportation facilities, unless otherwise directed by Development Services: • All access points serving the proposed development. • All public roadways used to access the development site from the surrounding network. • All roadways classified as collector or higher within a 1/4-mile radius of the development. • All intersections where both intersecting roadways are classified as collector or higher and where the project is expected to add 20 or more peak-hour trips, within 3 miles of the development site. • The closest intersection to the site where a collector (or higher classification) intersects with a principal arterial, regardless of distance. (This intersection may already be required to be analyzed based on other criteria.) • Roadways and intersections included on the project list for the Transportation Impact Fee (TIF) Project List (available in PMC 3.40.160) and projects on the City's current six-year Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) can be omitted from the study. The scope of the TIA must be reviewed and approved by the City in advance and must include: • Existing and projected traffic volumes • Intersection Level of Service (LOS) analysis • Safety and crash history review • Turn lane and queuing analysis (if applicable) • Signal warrant evaluation (if applicable) • Recommended mitigation measures (e.g., turn lanes, traffic control devices, frontage improvements, or impact fees) **The City reserves the right to modify the required scope based on project context, cumulative impacts, or documented operational or safety concerns in the area. Relationship to Concurrency Traffic studies — including Trip Generation Letters (TGLs) and Traffic Impact Analyses (TIAs) are used in part to evaluate transportation concurrency as required by the City of Pasco’s adopted level-of-service (LOS) standards. Page 305 of 321 Community Development Department PO Box 293, 525 N 3rd Ave, Pasco, WA 99301 P: 509.545.3441 / F: 509.545.3499 Approval of a development proposal is contingent upon a determination that the project will not cause the LOS on affected roadways or intersections to fall below the adopted standard, or that mitigation will be provided to maintain concurrency. Where a project exceeds concurrency thresholds, mitigation measures may include: • Reduction of project scope to reduce traffic impacts to a level that maintains an acceptable LOS. • Construction of off-site improvements to improve the level of service at affected intersections to an acceptable level. Improvements must be in place prior to or at the time of the completion of the development. • Provisions for transportation improvements are financially guaranteed in a Developer’s Agreement between the City and the Developer. This agreement must ensure that the necessary transportation facilities are in place within six years from the time that the first development activities are permitted. Such agreements are at the discretion of City Manager. For more information related to concurrency, refer to Pasco Municipal Code 12.36. Pre-Application Review and Contact Information Applicants are encouraged to consult with Development Services early in the process or during the pre-application meeting to determine if a TGL or TIA will be required. Final determination will be made by Development Services in consultation with the Public Works Director and the Community and Economic Developer Director. For questions, please contact Development Services at developmentreview@pasco-wa.gov or calling (509)545-3441.

Consideration of annexation into Conservation District-On October 20th Council Agenda 21. Water Conservation Program- Since the August 25 presentation, staff have advanced key water conservation initiatives, including public outreach, irrigation retrofits, and updated development and boulevard standards. Work is also underway on a City facility water audit, landscape conversion projects, and potential residential incentives to promote xeriscaping. 22. Fireworks- Over the past month, staff from Communications, Fire, and Police have been engaged in ongoing discussions with our regional partners regarding fireworks. These conversations have centered on how best to balance community safety, public education, and enforcement. Regional Highlights: Safety Over Enforcement Regional partners agree that banning currently legal fireworks would not necessarily deter the use of those that are already illegal. Instead, the emphasis should be placed on public safety- preventing injuries, fires, and property damage- rather than focusing primarily on enforcement. Tri -Cities Joint Messaging Campaign All jurisdictions are aligned on the creation of a joint education and outreach campaign. This campaign will roll out ahead of New Year’s Eve and will emphasize the message: “Buy where you plan to celebrate.” The goal is to increase community awareness, promote legal use, and encourage responsible celebration. Partnership with Fireworks Retailers Regional staff are exploring opportunities to collaborate with TNT Fireworks and other retailers on a shared marketing strategy. This would help amplify safety messaging and ensure that consumers hear consistent, responsible reminders at the point of sale. Education First, Enforcement as a Backstop The number one focus is education-ensuring residents understand the rules and the risks. Messaging will make clear that while enforcement is not the primary tool, violators can be fined if violations occur. This approach seeks to shift behavior through awareness, rather than relying solely on penalties. Meetings attended since the last report: Tri-Cities Ironman event; Statewide TIF Stakeholder meeting; meeting with Commissioner Bauman; meeting with Conservation District Regional Manager; meeting with Port of Pasco Executive Director; BCES Executive Board meeting; BIPIN Executive Board meeting; new employee orientation; meeting with Pasco School District Superintendent; meeting regarding Hispanic Heritage Month community event; HAPO Center Advisory Board meeting; Regional City and County Administrator meeting; meeting with Benton City Mayor; meeting with GM/CEO of Franklin PUD; Shoreline Reconveyance Working meeting; and many other internal communication and project meetings.
