II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCHJSTAFF RECOMMENDATION:
11/14/05 DISCUSSION:
11/21/05 MOTION: I move to adopt Ordinance No. an ordinance
relating to the Waterworks Utility of the City, including the Sanitary
Sewerage System and the system of Storm or Surface Water Sewers as a part
thereof; adopting a system or plan of additions to and betterments and
extensions of the Waterworks Utility, providing for the issuance and sale of
$4,400,000 par value of Water and Sewer Utility Revenue Bonds, 2005, for
the purpose of carrying out the System or Plan adopted by this ordinance and
to pay the cost of issuing and selling those Bonds; Fixing the Date, Form,
Denomination, Maturities, Interest Rates, Terms and Covenants of the
Bonds authorized herein; providing for Bond Insurance; and providing for
the Sale and Delivery of the Bonds to Banc of America Securities LLC of
Seattle, Washington.
M. FISCAL IMPACT:
Anticipated debt service requirements will be scheduled with other debt service requirements of
the utilities. These payments will vary in amount from year to year and be approximately
$320,000 to $330,000 per year. Annual debt service based on an estimated interest rates ranging
from approximately 2.75%to 5%depending on maturity.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
These bonds will pay for the construction costs to build the new Composite Water Tower on
Road 68 and related projects included in the 2005-2010 the Capital Improvements Plan. These
projects include the new tower, improvements around and the painting of the old water tower.
The water utility will be spending over$9.5 million during 2005, 2006&2007,and the projected
cash balance for the water utility will decline to a balance of around $1 million without the sale
of bonds for the above projects.
The debt service on the new bonds will be spread to all water customers as all types of customers
(residential and commercial)will benefit from the new water tower.
VI. DISCUSSION:
Staff recommends adoption of the proposed ordinance.
VII. OTHER FACTS:
The City is awaiting a bond rating from Moody's. The City received an A3 rating on the last
several bond issues. Staff will review if purchasing bond insurance is cost effective once the
new rating is received. Purchasing bond insurance guarantees a AAA bond rating and the best
interest rates.
The bond sales will occur on November 21st. The completed bond ordinance will be available
by the start of the council meeting.

(E) Copy of Ordinance Preserving Property Tax Levy Capacity—Option 1 &2
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL/STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
11/7/05 Public Hearing
11/21/05 Motion: I move to adopt Ordinance No ,providing for the 2006
Ad Valorem Tax Levy, a levy for the 1999 Unlimited Tax General
Obligation Bonds and the 2002 Unlimited Tax General Obligation
Refunding Bonds.
Motion: I move to adopt Ordinance No. ,preserving property tax
levy capacity for fiscal years after 2006 in accordance with state law.
III[. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
The maximum allowed levy rate, per state statute, that a City can levy per $1,000 of
assessed value is $3.60. The last time the City of Paso's levy rate was at that level was in
1992.
From 1992 to 1999 the City reduced the levy rate by not taking any of the allowable
percentage increase, which before 2002 was 6%, and preserved the unused levy capacity
in case it were needed in the future.
In November 1999, the voters approved Initiative 695, which eventually was ruled
unconstitutional. The legislature, however, reduced the Motor Vehicle Excise Tax
(MVET) to $30 per vehicle, which they determined to be the voter's intent of the
initiative. To make up for the loss of future MVET revenues, Council elected to use
$450,000 of the unused, preserved, levy capacity. The levy rate for 2000 taxes was set at
$3.071 per$1,000 of assessed value, still well below the $3.60 maximum.
In 2001 the voters approved Initiative 747, which limits the amount a taxing district can
raise property taxes over the previous year by the lesser of 1% or the Implicit Price
Deflator (IPD), without a vote of the people. IPD for the 2006 calculation is 2.541 %
(July 2005) so the allowable levy increase calculation will use 1%. IPD is a national
inflation index. Pasco's bargaining unions typically include wage increases tied to the
West Coast (Seattle/Tacoma Area) Consumer Price Index (CPI). CPI for the year ending
July 2005 is 2.9%.
Despite the above challenges the Council has been a good steward of taxpayer dollars, as
the 2005 property tax levy rate is down to $2.4157, or 67 % of the maximum rate
allowable and 21.34% less than the$3. 071 rate set in 2000.
8(b)
Pasco has certainly enjoyed the effects of growth within the city limits. Sales tax from
new construction and the population growth contributing to higher utility taxes and higher
building permit fees have certainly helped to maintain a balanced budget and keep our
property taxes low.
The property tax levy for 2006 will be comprised of the following three elements:
1. General Property Tax Levy.
2. 1999 Unlimited Tax General Obligation Fire Station/Library Bonds Debt Service.
3. 2002 Unlimited Tax General Obligation Refunding(1993)Bonds Debt Service.
The City is directed to set property tax levies with the county in November of each year.
IV. DISCUSSION:
The Franklin County Assessor has advised that the City will have an assessed valuation
(preliminary figure) of $1,989,593,313 which is used to calculate 2006 taxes. This
amount includes new construction of $187,695,900. There were no annexations of
property before the cutoff date of March 319t. The County did not re-assess any properties
within City limits in the past year.
GENERAL PROPERTY TAX LEVY
Option 1:
The amount of the property tax estimated and used in the preparation of the Preliminary
2006 Budget is $4,800,000. The following figures are from numbers provided by the
Franklin County Assessor, adding the 1% increase and adding the value of new
construction and annexations at last year's rate and adding those numbers to last year's
total levy.
2005 Total General Property Tax Levy $4,299,469
1%increase in the levy rate based on the allowable
maximum levy 53,899
New Construction Values of$187,695,900
at the 2005 rate of$2.4157/$1,000 Assessed Value 453,417
Annexation Values of$0
at the 2005 rate of$2.41571$1,000 Assessed Value 0
Increase in the State Assessed Utilities
at the 2005 rate of$2.4157/$1,000 Assessed Value 0
$4,806,785
A 2006 General Levy of $4,806,785 using the estimated assessed value of
$1,989,593,313 calculates to a levy rate of$2.4160 per $1,000 of assessed value. This is
virtually the same levy rate as 2005's rate of$2.4157.
Option 2:
By not including any of the I% as shown in Option 1, but including the tax resulting from
new construction, the actual levy rate will decline slightly from 2005 to $2.3889 per
$1,000 of assessed value. The 2006 General Property Tax Levy would beat $4,752.886.
Option 3:
If the City were to levy all of the tax available in Option 1 and choose to levy all the
banked levy capacity, the general Levy would increase to $5,897,210. The levy rate
would calculate to $2.9640, still well below the maximum allowed levy rate, per state
statute rate of$3.60. Any or all of the Banked Capacity could be levied.
It was previously mentioned the City had used some of the previously preserved, or
"banked", levy capacity. The money is not is a bank account. It is merely left in the
pockets of the taxpayers. The purpose of RCW 84.55.092 allowing a governmental entity
to preserve future levy capacity is to "remove the incentive for a taxing district to
maintain its tax levy at the maximum level permitted under this chapter, and to protect
the future levy capacity of a taxing district that reduces its tax levy below the level that it
otherwise could impose under this chapter, by removing the adverse consequences to
future levy capacities resulting from such levy reductions." In plain English this means if
the tax is not needed a City does not have to set the levy at the maximum amount. It can
reserve that resource for future use — when the Council determines (by a super-majority
vote) that it is needed.
Whatever the amount the levy is set for 2006, the council can preserve the right to levy
the unused amount.
A separate ordinance has been prepared to preserve the unused portion of the current levy
and any remaining past unused levy capacity.
Ordinances for each option have been prepared.
1999 UNLMTED TAX GENERAL OBLIGATION BOND DEBT SERVICE
The 2006 debt service requirement for the 1999 UTGO Bonds issued for the purpose of
the Library Remodel and Fire Station Relocation is $77,382 and $99,018, respectively.
Staff recommends the 1999 Unlimited Tax General Obligation Bond tax levy be set at
those amounts. The two numbers are not combined because they appeared on the official
ballot separately when voted upon. The county assessor's office requires we set these
levies separately. The estimated assessed value for properties subject to the tax is
$1,750,689,715; this will result in levy rates of$0.0442 and $0.0560, respectively, or a
combined levy rate of $0.1002. 2005's levy rates were $0.0504 and $0.0638,
respectively, or $0.1142 combined. The schedule of payments calls for principal
payments of $100,000 each year for the remaining 13 years. This should reflect in
decreased levy rates for the remaining payment schedule as the interest portion declines.
2002 UNLIMITED TAX GENERAL OBLIGATION REFUNDING BONDS
The 2002 Unlimited Tax General Obligation Refunding Bonds were issued to refund the
1993 General Obligation Bonds to take advantage of lower interest rates available and
save the taxpayer's money. The debt service requirements in 2006 for the 2002 UTGO
Refunding Bonds is $384,263 and staff recommends the 2002 Unlimited General
Obligation Refunding Bonds tax levy rate be set at that dollar amount. This equates to a
levy rate of approximately$0.2500 per$1,000 of assessed value. This is down from the
2005 levy rate of$0.2748. Unlike the 1999 Bonds,the principal payment amounts will
increase over the remaining life of these bonds but the interest portion will decrease
keeping the annual payments at approximately$380,000.
V. OTHER:
The Franklin County Assessor uses a four year rotation to assess all the property in the
County. No portion of the City was re-assessed this year to calculate next year's property
taxes. In 2006 the Assessor will re-assess the portion of the City west of 20`h Avenue for
the calculation of taxes for 2007.

AN ORDINANCE PRESERVING PROPERTY TAX LEVY CAPACITY IN
THE CITY OF PASCO, WASHINGTON FOR FISCAL YEARS AFTER
2006 IN ACCORDANCE WITH STATE LAW.
WHEREAS, to provide the property tax revenues required by the general
operating budget of the City for fiscal year 2006, City Council of the City of Pasco levied
property taxes on all taxable property in the City for collection in fiscal year 2006 in the total
amount of$4,806,785, which dollar amount is the sum of(a) $4,299,469, which is the amount of
property taxes levied by the City in fiscal year 2005, plus (b) $53,899, the lesser of 1% or the
Implicit Price Deflator, which for this calculation, is 2.541%, (c) $453,417, which is the amount
of additional taxes at the 2005 levy rate of 2.4157 cents per $1,000 of assessed value resulting
from the addition of new construction and improvements to property in the City, property
annexed into the City during fiscal year 2005, and any increase in value of state-assessed
property in the City; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City desires to preserve in accordance with state law
(including but not limited to Chapter 84.55 RCW) the capacity of the City to levy property taxes
in future fiscal years after 2006 calculated as if the City in fiscal year 2006 had levied the full
amount allowed by state law upon a finding of substantial need therefore; and
WHEREAS, upon a finding of substantial need and based upon limit factors of the lesser
of 101% or lPD (102.541%) for the previous year and limit factors of 106% for previous years as
provided by RCW 84.55.0101 and $3.60 per $1,000 of assessed value by RCW 84.52.043 and
41.16.060, the City would be permitted to levy property taxes for fiscal year 2006 in a total
amount of$5,897,210 (the "full amount allowed by law"), which dollar amount is the sum of(a)
$5,443,793 (the lesser of the amount calculated by multiplying the allowable 2005 property tax
levy of$5,389,894 times the limit factor of the lesser of 101% or IPD or the $3.60 per $1,000
statutory limitation), plus (b) $453,417, which is the amount of additional taxes at the 2005 levy
rate of 2.4157 cents per $1,000 of assessed value resulting from the addition of new construction
and improvements to property in the City, property annexed into the City during fiscal year 2005,
and any increase in value of state-assessed property in the City; and
WHEREAS, the full amount allowed by law for fiscal year 2005 of $5,897,210 is
$1,090,425 greater than the actual property tax levy of the City for fiscal year 2006 of$4,806,785
and such excess of$1,090,425 represents the unused 2006 property tax levy capacity that the
City desires to preserve for future fiscal years after 2006;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PASCO,
WASHINGTON, DO ORDAIN as follows:
Section 1. The City Council of the City finds and determines that there is substantial
need for the City to preserve for future fiscal years after 2006 the capacity to levy property taxes
on all taxable property in the City in the amount of$1,090,425,which is equal to the unused levy
capacity of the City for fiscal year 2006. This substantial need includes, without limitation, the
anticipated future requirements for additional property tax revenues that will be needed for the
construction and/or maintenance of roads, streets, bridges and other transportation facilities of
the City; to satisfy anticipated and unanticipated new regulatory requirements applicable to the
City; to provide for potential excess costs of capital facilities; and generally to meet other
substantial future financial requirements of the City.

AGENDA REPORT
FOR: City Council November 9, 2005
FROM: Gary Crutchfi 1 anager Workshop Mtg.: 11/14/05
Regular Mtg.: 11/21/05
SUBJECT: Agreement for gislative Consultant Services
I. REFERENCE(S):
1. Proposed Agreement
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL /STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
11114: Discussion
11/21: MOTION: I move to approve the agreement for legislative consultant services
with Smith Alling Lane, P.S. and, further, authorize the City Manager to sign the
agreement.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
$12,000
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) The city has used the services of Smith Alling Lane for legislative consultant services
over the past two legislative sessions to advance its interest regarding funding for the
Ainsworth Overpass and the legislative correction necessary with regard to joint
housing authorities. The consultant services agreement proved effective in assisting
the city and the Port in obtaining full funding for the Ainsworth Overpass project in
the 2004 session. The consultant has also been helpful in making progress regarding
the legislative changes necessary to fix the joint housing authority statute.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) Given the tremendous financial success associated with the use of the consultant
services agreement over the past two years (the Ainsworth Project received $5.2
million in state funding assistance), use of the consultant services agreement is
strongly recommended for the 2006 legislative session. Not only should the city
make further progress regarding the housing authority issue, the Road 100
interchange project requires about $1 million in funding assistance from the state
Department of Transportation (and the pedestrian overpass may require it as well).
While there is no guarantee that the legislative consultant will assure success in one's
legislative endeavors, it substantially improves the city's opportunity to do so.
Consequently, staff urges Council's approval of a successor agreement for legislative
services.

FROM: Robert J.AlberQT tor,Public Works
SUBJECT: Reject SR 395/Court Street Pedestrian Overpass Crossing
I. REFERENCE(SA:
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL/STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
11/21: Motion: I move to reject all bids received for the SR 395/Court Street
Pedestrian Overpass Crossing project, and further, authorize staff to pursue
funding assistance from the State.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
Arterial Street Fund
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
On October 26, 2005, staff opened bids for the SR395 Court Street Pedestrian
Overpass Crossing, for the second time. Staff received four(4)bids, one of which
was non-responsive, leaving three (3) qualifying bids. The low bid was
$799,048.20 including applicable taxes, submitted by Ray Poland& Sons. The
second lowest bid was submitted by C.A. Carey Construction in the amount of
$910,500. The Engineer's estimate prepared by HDR Engineering is
$517,320.84.
Council may recall that the project was identified in 2002. At that time, the cost
was estimated at between $400,000 - $500,000. In June 2005, the project was bid
and rejected, yet authorized to be rebid at a later time with the understanding that
the project would be deferred to 2006. Budget was raised to $610,000 to
accommodate anticipated cost increases.
The purpose of this project is to add better pedestrian access across SR395 at
Court Street. Although one could argue that the responsibility of this project is
that of the WSDOT, the City has been willing to take on the project to ensure
better pedestrian access and pedestrian safety.
City currently has spent $83,505 for design services and would anticipate an
additional $50,000 for construction inspection. Based on the bids, staff has a hard
time justifying the cost for this. Unless Council wants to bear the full cost burden
of this project (nearly$1 million), staff recommends the bids be rejected again and
pursue funding assistance from the State(about $400,000 would solve the
problem).
