Old Business: 2005 Budget: Mr. Crutchfield stated that the Board did not formally act on a budget prior to the beginning of the current calendar year. He presented a proposed budget for the current year and stated that it was very similar to last year, with the notable exceptions of rr ..r, higher sales tax revenue (which is a pass through to the Kennewick PFD) and inclusion of the $30,000.00 planning consultant agreement entered into with the City of Pasco late last year. Following discussion it was motioned by Mr. Dietrich, seconded by Mr. Merk, and carried to approve the 2005 Pasco PFD budget in the amount of$31.1,000.00. Planning Funds: Mr. Crutchfield reminded the Board that they have a separate agreement between the city and the PFD which provides the city will reimburse up to $30,000.00 for planning consultation. Execution of the agreement with the city has been held in abeyance pending a conclusion of discussions with the other PFDs concerning a "regional" planning effort. Following much discussion, the suggestion was made that maybe a consultant should be hired to look at what kinds of facilities would be appropriate for Pasco. New Business: "Regional"PFD: the aquatics center task force (currently led by Randy Willis and Vic Epperly) has decided to push for the three city councils to reallocate the funds originally suggested for a regional planning effort to consultant and legal expenses necessary to pursue the notion of a"regional PFD." Mr. Crutchfield submitted a Director's Report to the Board, along with copies of the aquatics center task force's "Conceptual Proposal for a Regional Public Facilities District" (both attached). Following much discussion of this item, it was decided that Mr. Crutchfield would talk with the two other city managers and PFDs to see if the PFDs want to get back on their own track and look at local priorities, but still willing to get involved in a regional planning effort. Other Business: None Adjournment: There being no other business, President Tippett adjourned the meeting at 5:05 p.m. h IJ,&7L- Bob Tippett, Preside t Webster Jackson, FD Secretary PFD Minutes 2/9/05 Page 2of2
