Old Business:
Statewide Conference in Lynnwood, October 24-25, 2005:
The Board discussed and agreed that the conference, being the first one, would be a great
opportunity to network with other PFDs. Mr. Tippett stated that he though Mr. Merk was
planning on attending the conference.
Joint Planning for Regional Centers:
Mr. Crutchfield reported that in May he met with two councilmembers from each of the
three cities (Pasco, Kennewick and Richland) and their respective city managers to
discuss the concept of joint planning for regional centers. The result of that discussion
196�
was relatively positive, given the willingness of all six elected officials to consider
recommending to their respective councils that the three cities enter into such an effort.
`r He stated that he has drafted an interlocal agreement designed to establish the joint
planning effort, including the financial commitment from each of the three cities and
establishing an oversight committee. He sent the draft agreement to the other two city
managers the first week of August and has received no comment or suggestion for
changes to date. Rather than continue to wait for action in the other two cities, he intends
to present it to the Pasco council at its October 24 workshop; his hope is that the public
discussion will generate similar action in the other two cities, hopefully toward a
commitment.
Mr. Crutchfield informed the Board that the Attorney General issued a formal opinion,
that the statue does not permit the creation of a "regional' public facilities district
overlying the existing individual municipal PFDs.
