1. District Levy/Bond Proposition Information Sheet
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL/STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
1/9: Conduct Public Hearing and determine whether or not Council desires to take a formal
position in support of or opposition to the School District's Levy/Bond Proposition.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) The School District relies on a local operating levy to provide sufficient property tax
income to balance the School District's operating budget for the delivery of its
educational services to the community. The operating levy compliments the state
allocation of funding for basic education. Without the local operating levy, the
quantity (and, to a great extent, the quality) of education services in Pasco would
decline. The operating levy is presented to the voters of the District (including all
properties within the City of Pasco) every two years; the current proposal will be
decided by voters on February 7.
B) In addition to the perennial operating levy, the District is presenting a bond
proposition to the voters on February 7 as well. The bond proposition requests a
special additional property tax levy to retire a 20-year borrowing of$83 million, the
proceeds of which would be used for the variety of projects listed in the attachment.
Most notably, $62 million of the bond proposition is earmarked for the second high
school, a project long discussed in the community.
C) Mr. Mike Miller, Chair of the District's Levy/Bond Proposition Committee, has
requested that the City Council take a formal position in support of both of the ballot
issues. State law requires the City Council to conduct a public hearing for the
collection of citizen input on the matter before deciding whether or not to take a
position, either for or against, any ballot proposition. Per Council direction, a special
meeting and public hearing notice was advertised in the Tri-City Herald and provided
to the media to advise the community of the public hearing at 7:00 p.m., Monday,
January 9.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) Following collection of public input through the public hearing, Council should
reach a general consensus on whether or not it desires to take a position and, if so,
the general character of that position. In doing so, staff will be able to prepare an
appropriate formal resolution to reflect the general consensus of the Council, for
formal Council action at its regular business meeting January 17. If Council delays
action beyond that date, it would likely be too late to inform many of the voters, as
the voting ballots are anticipated to be in the mail by January 20.
B) Council is not obligated to take a position on the matter; however, if it desires to take
one at all, the foregoing procedure will accommodate it.

MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS LEVY ELECTION
Replacement Levy Facts
On Tuesday, February 7, 2006, Pasco citizens will vote for two separate,but important, issues impacting children in
our community. Voters will be asked to approve a replacement Maintenance and Operations Levy and a Capital
Improvement Bond. Read on to learn more about replacement of the expiring Maintenance and Operations Levy.
What is a Levy?
► A levy pays for day-to-day educational programs and operations and makes up the difference between the
cost of educating Pasco's students and the funding received from the state and federal governments.
► This levy replaces the levy expiring in 2006, which was approved by the voters in 2004. It is not a new tax.
► Levies run for two years; thus, the district must run a levy election every two years in order to replace the
one that is retiring.
► If voters approve the levy, the state would provide an additional $6 million each year for Pasco students
through levy equalization funds. If the levy fails, Pasco students lose both the local and state funding.
► The levy rate, estimated at$4.45 per$1,000 of assessed value, is the same amount the district advertised in
the February 2004 levy election. Historically the actual rate has been lower than the estimated amount.
The Maintenance and Operations Levy pays for
functions not provided by state or federal resources: The local replacement levy and state levy
equalization funds represent 16% of Pasco
► All or part of music,drama,and art programs; School District's operating budget.
► Librarians and library books;
► Counselors, school nurses, and partial cost of home
visitors; J 16%
► Interscholastic sports,academic teams, and school
clubs;
► Teaching material's,,:. 17% State Grants

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT BOND ELECTION
Bond Facts
On Tuesday, February 7, 2006, Pasco citizens will vote for two separate, but important, issues impacting children in
our community. Voters will be asked to approve both a replacement Maintenance and Operations Levy and a
Capital Improvement Bond. Read on to learn more about the Capital Bond.
What is a Capital Bond?
► Bond issues provide funding for capital projects, such as new school construction,facility renovation, or
purchase of land.
► Bonds are only run when capital needs exist, such as for a new school.
► Bonds are new taxes and are typically paid over 20 years, similar to a mortgage.
► Bond funds can never be used for anything other than capital projects.
► Approval of the bond would provide an estimated additional$35 million in state matching funds.
► The local tax rate would be an additional 71d per$1,000 of assessed property value.
► The proposed bond measure would provide the school district with $83,432,200 to fund the projects below.

AGENDA REPORT
TO: City Council January 6, 2006
FROM: Gary Crutchfi 1 anager Workshop Mtg.: 1/9/06
SUBJECT: Baseball Stadiu Improvements
I. REFERENCE(S):
1. Memorandum from Administrative &Community Services Director to the City
Manager dated 12/28/05.
H. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL/STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
119: Discussion
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
See below.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) Pasco constructed its professional baseball stadium adjacent the TRAC facility in 1995
(just in time to accommodate the opening game of the 1995 inaugural season of the
Western Baseball League). The facility cost approximately$3 million and was financed
by the use of approximately $1.5 million in hotel/motel tax receipts previously
accumulated and the balance in the form of a bond issue (the repayment of the bond debt
is largely covered by the annual receipts from the hotel/motel tax).
B) The stadium is now 10 years old and is beginning to show signs of wear. More notably,
however, has been the experience of several different operating tenants that have
consistently expressed concern with the effect of the sun on spectator seating. In an
effort to determine how to best resolve those concerns as part of a comprehensive
review of improvement needs at the stadium, the current stadium tenant and city
obtained a consultant's report. The attached memorandum from the Administrative &
Community Services Director outlines the findings of the consultant and provides a
clear summary of the recommended improvements and the associated cost estimates (the
cost estimates have been adjusted to reflect the market influences noted in the
memorandum,resulting in a new total cost estimate of$1.8 million).
C) Over the course of the past year or so, the city of Tacoma (which owns a larger but
minor league professional baseball stadium) has urged the state to provide a relatively
modest level of funds to those communities which have minor league professional
baseball stadiums in the state to assist with the capital improvements necessary to
sustain minor league baseball in those communities. In addition to Tacoma, such
stadiums exist in Spokane,Yakima, Everett, Bellingham and Pasco.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) Pasco is still faced with about 10 years of debt service obligation from the original
construction debt. The more substantial stadium improvements cannot (or should not)
wait until the original debt is paid off. The tenant (just as experienced in any minor
league stadium in this state) cannot bear the cost of the capital upgrades. Perhaps the
most likely scenario to accomplish the improvements is a combination of the tenant, city
and state to accomplish most of the recommended improvements. Without being part of
a collective effort (such as Tacoma has suggested), the likelihood of obtaining state
funds is nil.
B) The principal of Northwest Baseball Ventures (Andy Billig) will attend the workshop
meeting to share with the City Council the tenant's perspective on this matter. Staff
requests Council discussion of the matter and, if appropriate, some direction as to the
potential involvement in an effort to obtain state funding assistance.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Gary Crutchfield, City Manager
FROM: Stan Strebel, d r '' st ive and Community Services Director
I 1
DATE: December 28, 2005
RE: Baseball Stadium Improvements and Capital Upgrades
Following the approval of the new lease for the baseball stadium with Northwest Baseball
Ventures of Spokane (taking over the team and the facility from Portland Family Entertainment)
the City and NWVB undertook a study to determine the nature and cost of future improvements
that might prove to be warranted as we began the second 10 years of operational history at the
stadium facility. Mr. Greg Prelogar, a baseball facility consultant from Phoenix, Arizona, was
commissioned to review the condition of the stadium and make recommendations. The City and
NWVB agreed to split the $9,000 cost of Mr. Prelogar's study, which was completed in early
2005.
As you know, the most common concern regarding the facility, raised not only by NWBV, but
its two predecessors, is the fact that at a typical evening game start time the angle of the sun is
such that it makes the third base side of the stadium unbearable for most spectators. This, of
course, significantly impacts the team's ability to attract fans to the facility and the ultimate
success of the team itself. Obviously, the City's ability to continue to pay off its debt associated
with the facility and fulfill its goals of providing recreation opportunities and economic
development in the community is tied to the success of the team. A primary focus of the study
on potential improvements, therefore, was on addressing the third base sun problem with a
possible "shade canopy".
In addition to specifically reviewing this issue, Mr. Prelogar looked at 1) site and landscaping
needs, 2) additional spectator seating needs and opportunities, 3) team and field related
improvements, and 4) possible building improvements. In all, a total of nearly one and a half
million dollars worth of potential improvements was identified. These are summarized in the
attached descriptive summary according to each of the four categories as listed (It should be
noted that during 2005, as part of its capital expenditure commitment under the lease, Northwest
Baseball Ventures installed two field level boxes on the first base side as described in Mr.
Prelogar's report).
Since the study was done using construction prices which are now approaching two years old, we
asked Mr. Prelogar to suggest how the figures might be updated. According to him, construction
costs normally rise about 6%per year. Additionally, in the past 2 years, steel prices have risen by
as much as 200-300%, while concrete prices have risen by 75-100% according to Mr. Prelogar.
Based on this experience,he has suggested that, for budget purposes, the "shade canopy" (an
improvement with major steel elements) estimates be inflated by another 50%. Applying these
adjustments, the "shade canopy" improvement(first two lines under Spectator Seating in the
attached cost summary) costs would be adjusted from $240,000 to $404,496 and from $85,000 to
$143,259, respectively. improvements which require less concrete or steel would probably
affected by inflation at close to 12%.
While a number of the proposed improvements are suggested to address specific problems or to
make the stadium more fan friendly, other improvements are simply necessary to replace
facilities that have worn out or are no longer adequate. It would be relatively simple to prioritize
the total list of proposed improvements into categories ranging from most critical to least critical
with the development of a corresponding cost/benefit identified for each.
Concurrent with the City's review of possible capital improvements at the stadium, there has also
been a movement among communities in the state that own similar facilities to approach the state
legislature for some sort of funding to improve and maintain minor league baseball facilities as a
part of the state's commitment to overall economic development. Pasco has provided input on
its capital needs as different legislative options have been explored by several communities. As
you know, there continues to be an effort, led largely by the City of Tacoma, to introduce
legislation in the upcoming session that will provide some funding in this regard.
With this background, it may be prudent to consider the recommendations of Mr. Prelogar's
report with the City Council to decide what direction, if any, the City should be taking at this
time. Thank you.

1/17/2006 MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No.
supporting the Benton-Franklin Homeless Housing
Plan for 2006-2015.
III. FISCAL IMPACT
None.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A. HB 2163 authorized a $10.00 document surcharge which is to be
used to address homeless issues. Counties began collecting the
surcharge on August 1, 2005. Under the State regulations, 60% of
the surcharge goes to the County in which it is collected to be used
for preparing a homeless plan (goal to reduce homeless population by
50% in 10 years) and funding assistance programs. The rest of the
money goes to the state or is used to offset collection costs.
B. Benton and Franklin counties contracted with the Community Action
Committee (CAC) and directed them to prepare a plan for reducing
the Tri-Cities homeless population by the State mandated
December 31, 2005 deadline.
C. At the December 5, 2005 meeting the City Council approved an
Interlocal Agreement with Franklin County and other cities regarding
local homeless housing programs/plans. Under the terms of the
Interlocal each of the cities is asked to pass a resolution to join and
support the County approved homeless housing program/plan.
D. Both Benton & Franklin Counties have approved the 10 year plan
created by the Community Action Committee (CAC) (see Exhibit A).
V. DISCUSSION
A. Under the State Statues establishing the Homeless Program, the City
has the opportunity to join and support the County plan or to
formulate its own plan. If Pasco elected to opt out of the County Plan,
a portion of the funding collected as a result of the document
surcharge would accrue to the City for the preparation/
implementation of its own plan.
3(b)
B. Funding for the implementation of homeless plans is very limited. It
is estimated that only $51,000/year (60% of $85,000 surcharge)
would be available to Franklin County for plan implementation. If the
City elects to opt out of the County Plan, a percentage of the
surcharge assessed, which is equal to the percentage of the City's
local portion of the real estate excise tax collected by the County,
would be transmitted to the City. These funds would be used for
program costs which directly contribute to the goals of the City's
homeless housing plan. The County Treasurer estimates the City's
share of the excise tax is approximately 16 percent. If this figure were
applied to the estimated $85,000 available, the City would receive
only $13,600 (16% of $85,000 total surcharge) of which 6% could be
used for administration.
C. Opting out of the County plan would present a number of challenges.
More specifically:
(1) There is no City staff with expertise in homeless issues. As
such, the City, like the County, would have to separately
contract with an agency such CAC or the Housing Authority.
(2) The surcharge funding available would be insufficient to meet
the State goal of reducing homelessness by 50% in two years.
Other sources of funds would have to be identified.
(3) Homelessness is a regional issue that would be difficult to
address with Pasco preparing a separate plan.
D. The County plan prepared by Community Action Committee (CAC) is
very general in nature. Notable aspects of the plan are as follows:
(1) An early goal is to establish a "home base" which is a one stop
shop for people seeking assistance. Information on housing, life
skills, substance abuse programs, and the like would be
provided.
(2) Increase the supply of affordable housing units primarily
through the use of rental assistance vouchers.
(3) Work with relevant institutions to improve discharge programs
from local jails, hospitals and institutions.
E. The Plan does contain a series of charts which shows the actions and
estimated capital and annual operating costs of reducing homeless-
ness by 50% by 2015. The annual operating budget is estimated to
total just under $1.1 million. The specific source of funds is not
defined, but potentially includes City general funds, CDBG, HOME
and a variety of State/Federal categorical grant programs.
F. Judith Gidley, Executive Director of the CAC, will be in attendance at
the workshop to answer any questions which may arise.
G. A Resolution supporting the County's plan is attached. It should be
noted that the Interlocal Agreement with the County can be
terminated on 90 days notice. If as the plan is implemented, the
interests of the City and County diverge, this option would be
available. Staff recommends that the resolution be approved.

II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL/STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:

1117: MOTION: I move to adopt Ordinance No amending Title $.02 of the
Pasco Municipal Code regarding Dangerous and Potentially
Dangerous Animals and to authorize publication by summary only.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
N/A
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) The past several months'experience, with increased emphasis on dangerous and
potentially dangerous animals, due to the City's new regulations regarding pit
bulls, has brought some loopholes in the law to the attention of staff. These are
addressed in the attached ordinance as follows:
1) The Code currently includes as part of the definition for a "potentially
dangerous animal" an animal which chases people, in a menacing fashion, on
up blic properties but overlooks the possibility that such event could occur on the
private property of someone other than the owner of the animal. Section 1 of the
proposed ordinance includes this language on private property in the definition.
2) Staff has noted that it is possible for individuals to purchase insurance in the
amount of at least $250,000, as required by state statute for dangerous and
potentially dangerous animals, with extremely high deductibles and without the
requirement that the City be notified in the event of a non-renewal or cancellation.
Staff feels that if insurance is required, there must be reasonable safeguards to
assure that it is available in the event that it becomes necessary. Section 2 of the
proposed ordinance addresses this concern by placing a maximum deductible
amount ($2,500) on such policies and requiring that the City be notified in the
event of cancellation or non-renewal of such policy.
B) Staff recommends adoption of the proposed ordinance.

IV History and Facts Brief
The City's Interlocal Agreement for Correctional Facilities Use is similar to the 2005
contract. The attached tentative agreement represents a consensus of the parties who
have worked to develop it. This is the eighth year we have used the formula set forth in
the agreement with Franklin County for housing City prisoners in the Franklin County
Correctional Facility.
This agreement provides an adjusted formula for computing prisoner-lodging costs. This
formula assures that the City and Franklin County pay the same cost per prisoner day for
housing prisoners. At the same time, it provides a method of adjustment for what has
been a disproportionate share of overall bookings by the City in comparison to its
percentage of prisoners housed in the Franklin County Corrections Facility. Under the
terms of the proposed Interlocal Agreement the City will initially pay to the County an
estimated prisoner lodging cost. The cost is based on the City's last completed year of
lodging prisoners at the jail. It is paid to the County in 12 equal monthly payments. At
the completion of the year, the actual prisoner lodging and booking numbers are used to
reconcile the payment amount. The County refunds overpayments to the City;
underpayments are paid to the County within a specified period of time.
V. Discussion
The $76,997 increase in the 2006 jail budget is due to increases in operational costs,
wages and benefits. Pasco's portion of this increase is $43,603. This is reflected in the
2006 Interlocal Agreement.
At the current population level of 152 prisoners per day average the city's cost for
housing prisoners is considerably lower than what other police departments pay for
prisoner cost throughout the state. In no case will the city pay more than the $54.00 rate.
VI. Other Comments
The Interlocal Agreement for Correctional Facility Use has been written so that it may be
renewed from year to year and provides an arbitration process if a dispute over
compensation occurs.

2006 CITY OF PASCO - FRANKLIN COUNTY
CORRECTIONAL FACILITIES USE AGREEMENT
This agreement is made and entered into this day of , 2006 by
and between Franklin County, a political subdivision of the State of Washington (hereinafter
"County") and the City of Pasco, Washington, a municipal corporation (hereinafter"City").
For and in consideration of the considerations, covenants and agreement contained herein the
parties agree as follows:
L PURPOSE
The City, desiring to utilize Franklin County Correctional Facilities (hereinafter "Jail") and
its personnel and services maintained by the County for the incarceration of City
prisoners, in accordance with the Interlocal Cooperation Act (Chapter 39.34 RCW) and
the City and County Jails Act (Chapter 70.48 RCW), hereby enters into an agreement
with the County for use of jail and its personnel and services for confinement of City
prisoners. It is the purpose of this agreement to provide for the joint use by the parties of
the jail facilities and its personnel and services at the jail located at the Franklin County
Correctional Facilities in the City of Pasco.
II. DEFINITIONS
A, "City Prisoner" shall mean a person who is booked into the jail pursuant to an
arrest, in the City limits of Pasco, by a Pasco Police Officer, for the commission of a
misdemeanor.
B. "City Prisoner Day" shall mean any portion of a consecutive twenty-four hour
period and shall include when a City prisoner is only booked and released, as
calculated using the current I/LEADS methodology for counting jail days.
C. "Average Daily Population" (ADP) is calculated by dividing the total number of
prisoner days for all prisoners being held in the jail by the actual number of days in
the year.
D. "Total Prisoner Days" shall mean the total number of prisoner days for all prisoners
housed at the Jail during a specified period of time without regard for the type of
program they are being held under such as Trustee, work release, etc., the agency
they are being held for, or the criminal charges they are being held on.
E. "Jail Budget" for the purpose of this agreement shall not exceed $2,718,035 for the
initial term of this agreement and shall only include the following expenses:
1. Budget accounting and reporting system (BARS) line items.
a. Personnel and line items assigned to the 2006 Franklin County Corrections
Budget#540: $2,449,086.
b. Personnel and line items assigned to the 2006 Franklin County Jail Kitchen
Budget#550: $235,695.
Interlocal Agreement for Correctional Facilities Use- Page 1
2. That portion of the 2006 Franklin County Jail Support Services Budget:
a. 14.5% ($23,114) of the Franklin County Auditor's Office Budget specifically
identified as a jail expense.
b. The Franklin County Information Services Budget specifically identified as a
jail expense ($7,030).
c. 48% ($3,110) of the Franklin County Civil Service Budget that is specifically
identified as a jail expense.
F_ "Intake Processing Cost" shall mean that portion of the jail expenditure budget
attributable to the wages and benefits of those personnel assigned to the prisoner
intake function. For year 2006 the intake processing cost will not exceed $258,000
and will increase in subsequent years only by actual increases to wages and benefits
for the respective personnel through their collective bargaining agreement.
III. AVAILABILITY OF JAIL FACILITIES
The jail facilities and its personnel and services shall be available, on a space available
basis, for confinement of City prisoners held upon arrest, awaiting trial, and serving
sentences or jail terms.
IV. COMPENSATION FROM CITY
The City shall pay the County as total compensation for its provision of jail facilities and
personnel as specified herein:
A. Jail Budget. The proposed jail budget for any renewal term of this agreement shall
be established and provided to each agency housing prisoners at the jail by no later
than third Monday in August of the current contract year. This will allow time for
review and the filing of a request for binding arbitration (RCW 39.34) if compensation
amount cannot be agreed on.
B. Budget Approval. For the purposes of calculating prisoner day costs for the current
calendar year, the total jail budget shall not exceed the budget approved by Franklin
County Commissioners in December of the preceding year (December 2005 for 2006
Budget).
C. Preliminary Estimation and Payment of Jail Costs. The City shall remit a monthly
payment representing the City's estimated share of jail costs, determined as follows:
1. The estimated jail costs for the respective calendar year will be calculated by
dividing the prospective jail budget (2006) by the total prisoner days recorded for
the most recent complete calendar year (2004). The product of this process
represents the daily prisoner lodging cost and will be multiplied by the total
number of prisoner days charged to the City for the most recent complete
calendar year (2004). This product will represent the estimated annual prisoner
lodging cost for the prospective year (2006).
2. The prospective (2006) intake processing costs ($258,000) will be multiplied by
the difference between the following percentages and the product will represent
the estimated intake processing cost adjustment:
Interlocal Agreement for Correctional Facilities Use- Page 2
a. City prisoner days as a percent of total prisoner days for the most recent
complete calendar year (2004).
b. Number of City bookings as a percent of total Jail bookings for the most
recent complete calendar year (2004).
3. Not later than January 1,9' of prospective calendar year (2006), the estimated
annual prisoner lodging cost and the estimated intake processing cost
adjustment will be added and the sum divided by 12; the resulting figure will
constitute the monthly estimated jail cost to be paid by the City not later than the
last day of each month of the prospective calendar year. The Sheriff shall have
the right to formally request reduced monthly payment amounts thus assuring
against a large credit owing to the City during the Reconciliation Process outlined
below.
Jail Costs Estimation Formula
Jail budget/total prisoner days from prior complete year= Prisoner day rate.
Prisoner day rate (no higher than $54) X City's prisoner days = Estimated
Prisoner lodging cost
City's percent of total bookings minus City's percent of total prisoner population X
Percent of booking cost to be paid for intake processing cost
Prisoner lodging cost plus intake processing = Estimated annual City Jail cost
Estimated annual City Jail cost/ 12 = Monthly payment of estimated City Jail cost
D. Reconciliation Process. Not later than February 1st of each calendar year the
actual prisoner days experienced in the preceding calendar year will be applied to the
formula used for estimated jail cost (below), provided the total annual prisoner days
attributed to the jail shall not be less than 38,326 (representing an average of 106
prisoners per day). The resulting annual cost will be compared to the estimated
annual cost actually paid by the City. Any amount due the County by the City will be
paid within 30 days of invoice to the City_ Any amount due the City by the County will
be credited in the March billing.
2006 Reconciliation Formula
2006 Jail budget ($2,718,035)1 total 2006 prisoner days = 2006 Prisoner day rate
2006 Prisoner day rate (no higher than $54) X City's 2006 prisoner days = Actual
2006 Prisoner lodging cost
City's percent of total bookings minus City's percent of total prisoner population X
Percent of$258,000 to be paid for intake processing cost
2006 Actual Prisoner lodging cost plus intake processing = 2006 Actual City Jail
cost
V. PAYMENT
The City agrees to pay the County, by the 15th of each calendar month, the amount pre-
calculated using the formula outlined in Section IV.C, above. The County agrees to
credit overpayments by the end of March of the following year (or in subsequent months)
until total reimbursement has been completed. The City agrees to pay shortages, billed
by February 15th, by the 15th of March.

1/9: Discussion
1/17: MOTION: I move to authorize staff to expend the funds remaining in the Golf
Course Pond Improvement Project budget for golf cart path
improvements.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
N/A
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) The Golf Course Pond improvement project was included in the 2005 Capital
Budget to include renovation of the 3 ponds in the northeast area of the course and
the replacement of the north boundary fence. A total budget of $330,000 was
approved. The pond improvements have now been completed with approximately
$20,000 of the budget unexpended.
B) In reviewing the current condition at the golf course with the lessee, staff feels
that using the remaining budget for improvement of the golf cart paths on the
course will have a greater positive impact on the course than the fence
improvement originally proposed. Additionally, the renovation of the ponds
creates the opportunity to revise some cart routes for better flow.
C) Staff requests Council approval to utilize the remaining funding allocated for this
project for the cart paths. Since the original source of funding was the Sun
Willows Development Fund it is appropriate to expend this money at the golf
course.

Golf Course
Department Admin & Comm Svcs Division Facilities Date initiated 7/13/04
Justification Benefits
The Sun Willows Golf Course irrigation system, including 2 major reservoirs, was renovated in 2003
with a tremendous improvement to the appearance of the facility. Three smaller reservoirs exist on
the course in the northeast corner of the facility. These are not used for irrigation storage water, but
are merely a water amenity. Because the water is not circulated in the reservoirs and because of the
shallow depth, they frequently fill up with cattails and other unwanted vegetation, resulting in an
unsavory appearance, and at times, odors. This has a negative impact on the visual character and
playability of the course. Completion of this project will conclude major irrigation improvements
envisioned at the course through a planning committee recomendation in 1999. Also proposed is
replacing the existing barbed wire fence along the north boundary of the course (Argent Road)for
better security and appearance.

SUBJECT: Golf Course Lease Revised Payment Schedule

A. Letters from I.R.I. (October, December)
B. Proposed Amendment No. 2 to Golf Course Lease Agreement
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL/STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
1/4: Discussion
1/17: MOTION: I move to approve Amendment No. 2 to the Golf Course Lease
Agreement and further, to authorize the Mayor to sign the document.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
Minor delay in receipt of some revenue.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) We have recently had a number of winters that have significantly impacted golf
course play. Our lease agreement with I.R.I., the course operator, provides that
the lease, concession and food and beverage (fixed amount) payments to the City
will be made in equal monthly installments. I.R.I. has asked for a revised
payment schedule in consideration of their cash flow which can be significantly
limited by winter weather conditions. Based on a request last year by I.R.I., staff
allowed a one time variance to the payment schedule in 2005.
B) It is likely that there will continue to be years where winter golf will be limited.
Even though a significant portion of golf course revenue comes from season pass
sales (which are typically available in the late fall for the succeeding year), I.R.I.
reports that it is common for many pass users to wait until February or later to
make their purchase. Based on this information, staff feels that it is reasonable to
amend the payment schedule in the lease to more reasonably reflect the cash flow
at the golf course. The proposed schedule as shown in the lease amendment
provides that total payments will be "caught up" each year by May 5.
C) The lease is also proposed to be revised (Section 4) to account for an oversight in
last summer's implementation of the admission tax repeal with respect to golf
courses. Due to definitions in the lease, driving range revenues, which were
subject to the prior admission tax (2.5%) were not included in the revised "capital
replacement amount" which was increased to offset the loss of admission tax.
The proposed amendment also corrects this error.
D) Staff recommends approval of the lease amendment.

Dear Stan,
The improvements that the City is presently doing on the ponds at Sun Willows Golf
Course are a tremendous asset to the golf course. We want to thank you for the capital
improvements that the City has funded over the past five years. They have made a
significant impact on the conditions of the golf course as well as the clubhouse area.
M Golf Management would like the City to consider reallocating the monthly lease
payments as we did in 2005. We are requesting your approval to pay no lease payments
January, February and March and double our payments April,May and June. Please
consider this request for the balance of the term of the lease agreement.
Sincerely,
Debbie Pedersen

Dear Stan,
In response to your October 18t` letter with regard to our cash flow I would like to offer
the following information to assist in determining whether or not the City will be able to
grant our request for a reallocation of the lease payments for January—March of 2006.
Based on our previous year's experience and budget projections for 2006 we will have a
negative cash flow at the end of the first quarter of about$50,000 if we leave the rent
payments in as they are presently scheduled.
You are correct we have been exposed to some unusual weather conditions the past two
seasons but we felt it would be better for all parties to ask for this in advance to eliminate
any need for quick decisions as was the case last year. We are hoping this winter will be
mild but it has not started out that way and we have already experienced some closure
due to inclement weather.
It is true that we have annual pass revenue through the winter months but our revenues
start declining in October due to the shorter days and cooler temperatures so the revenue
for the passes assists us in our regular expenses for the fourth quarter of each year.
Any assistance you can provide us on this matter would be appreciated.
Sincerely;
Debbie Pedersen

CITY OF PASCO
SCOPE OF SERVICES
PRIMARY DIGESTER FACILITIES
Introduction
The City of Pasco Wastewwter Facilities Plan dated June, 2993,and the Suppletnental Facility
Plan,dated February 1994, recommended that the City construct one 700,000 gallon primary
digester,and one Dissolved Air Floatation Thickener(DAFT),during initial construction of
the Wastewater Treatment Plant. A second 700,000 gallon primary digester was
recotx►nvw4ed for the 2005 to 2008 tune period to provide redundancy,and to meet the
anticipated solids increase to the plant. The construction of a second DAFT, for redundancv
and for increased solids production, was to be based on the operating experience of the City
with the first DAFT unit and was anticipated to be needed m 2010 or beyond.
Primary digesters are designed to maintain a minimum detention time of approximately 15
to 18 days to provide adequate volatile solids reduction to meet Washington Department of
Ecology regulations. Longer detention times result in higher sludge mass reduction,higher
gas production,and lower final disposal volume.
The initial 700,000 gallon primary digester was intended to provide sufficient volume for
solids Produced during the maxims month conditions associated with an influent flow
rate of approximate 4 mgd,and population equivalent of approximately 40,000.
In addition to a second primary digester,the City of Pasco has identified certain items of
work for the repair and improvement of the existing plant facilities to be incorporated into
this Primary Digester Facilities Project Items to be included are as follows:
Drain,dean, inspect and repair the existing primary digester and primary digester
mixer.
Replace the existing telescoping valve at the existing digester with stainless steel
telescoping,valve.
• Provide a ladder or platform at the existing digester mixer-
* Provide a pumped oil supply system for the existing and new primary digester mixer
gear box at ground level.
• At the solids storage digester, repair the seal between the old and replacement concrete
roof slab,and repair the exterior finish system-
0 Replace the existing gate valves in the primary pump room with plug valves_
• Replace the existing lighting in the primary pump room.
• Repair cracks in the walls to the outside of the digester control building.
• Replace the existing boiler and provide second boiler

SUBJECT: Commitment to Assume Wade Park Lease—Boat Launch Project
I. REFERENCE(S):
A. Draft letter to Franklin County Commissioners
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL/STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
1/9: Discussion
1117: MOTION: I move to authorize the City Manager to execute the Letter Agreement
with Franklin County on the Road 54 Boat Launch/Wade Park Lease.
Ili. FISCAL IMPACT:
Approximately$2,800 annual cost.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) The County and City worked cooperatively in 1998 to install the irrigation system and
turf at Wade Park, located on the Pasco Rivershore between Road 39 and Road 54. The
County has been the historical lessee of the property from the Corps of Engineers.
Under the agreement to develop the property, the City committed to maintain the turf and
the irrigation system. The County remained responsible for overall property
management, for maintenance of the trail and for electrical and sanitation expenses.
B) The County has worked for several years to improve the boat launch at the west end of
Wade Park (Road 54) and, with the City's commitment to fund half ($75,000) of the
local match,was successful in securing a grant($450,000) from the State Interagency for
Outdoor Recreation to improve the facility in the coming year,
C) The County's notice a year ago, to the Corps of Engineers to terminate its Rivershore
leases, including Chiawana and Wade Parks was effective December 31, 2005.
However, recently,the County recognized that it would be unable to fulfill the conditions
of the Boat Launch grant for control of the property without the lease. Rather than lose
the grant funding (and all of the effort that has gone into the process of securing the
permits), the County has indicated its willingness to continue the lease for Wade Park
(including the Boat Launch) through project completion with the City's commitment to
assume the lease upon completion of the project. The attached letter outlines the
proposed agreement, which includes the City becoming responsible, this year, for some
of the park expenses for which the County did not budget. These include electrical (for
the irrigation pump), and sanitation and are expected to be approximately $2,800 for the
year. The County has funding available for trail maintenance in the park and will
continue to keep this responsibility until the lease is transferred.
D) Staff feels it is reasonable for the City to commit to assume the lease as outlined in the
letter: This property has been improved in the past by the City, the trail section is a
critical part of the Rivershore trail and the City already bears the major operating
expense associated with the park property (turf maintenance). While City and County
staff have discussed transfer of the lease in the past, the issue was always deferred to see
if the question regarding the Chiawana Park lease could be resolved at the same time.
Since timing of the Boat Launch grant requires a solution by February 15, staff
recommends approval of the agreement.

Re: Road 54 Boat Launch/Wade Park Lease
Dear Commissioners:
We recently reviewed the dilemma, created by the County's termination of its lease with the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers for rivershore properties and the requirements of the Washington
Interagency Committee for Outdoor Recreation regarding funding for the boat launch, with COE
real estate personnel and Tim Fife, County Engineer.
In the interest of demonstrating acceptable control of the boat launch project property by
February 15, 2006, as required by the IAC grant, Corps personnel advised that it would be
simpler for the County to withdraw its lease termination for the subject property than to have the
lease assumed by the City. Therefore, in the interest of fulfilling the requirements for the grant
for the project, the City and County have agreed as follows:
The County will withdraw its notice to terminate the lease with the Corps of Engineers for the
Wade Park area(Road 39 to Road 54), including the site of the boat launch until the boat launch
project is completed. The County will continue to manage the grant and the improvement
project through completion. The County will continue to provide general management of the
park and the bike/pedestrian trail on the property.
The City agrees to assume the lease responsibility for Wade Park, including the boat launch,
upon completion of the improvement project. The City will continue to maintain the turf and the
irrigation system on the property until it assumes the lease. In addition, the City will also assume
responsibility for the payment of the electric costs (pumping), for garbage collection and for
portable toilets for the park area beginning in 2006.
The City appreciates the cooperative spirit that has allowed this project to move forward as we
maximize our efforts to serve the citizens and provide new facilities for their use. Please sign
below indicating the County's agreement to this understanding.
Sincerely,
Gary Crutchfield

AGENDA REPORT

SUBJECT: Council Chamber Audio and Video Systems
I. REFERENCES:
A. Advanced Broadcast Solutions Proposal.
B. Information on Hitachi and Ikegami cameras.
(City Council packets only; copy available for public review in City Manager's
Office.)
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL:
119: Discussion and direction to staff.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
Approximately $68,000 to install a video system and update the audio system in the
Council Chambers.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A. Council directed staff to develop n estimate of the cost to install equipment to
P
broadcast meetings of the City Council and boards and commissions over the Charter
cable TV system. Staff suggested that it would make sense to look at updating the
Council Chamber audio system at the same time.
B. Staff solicited proposals from two audio/video firms recommended by those with
knowledge of the field and reported those to Council in November. Council decided
to explore fiirther the proposal from Advanced Broadcast Solutions (ABS) for
$68,500 and request that ABS perform a demonstration comparing the two cameras
under consideration: Hitachi HV-D30 and Ikegami ICD-608,
V. DISCUSSION:
A. The Advanced Broadcast Solutions (ABS) proposal: $68,500
VIDEO: The ABS proposal appears to include everything we need for live cablecast
of council and board and commission meetings and to record them for automated
playback over the cable system on a predetermined schedule. It includes Hitachi 800
line cameras, at a cost of approximately $2,200 each.
ABS, suggested as an alternative to the 800 line Hitachi cameras that we consider
Ikegami cameras with 480 horizontal lines (around $300 each). At our request, ABS
produced a demonstration DVD comparing the two cameras.
In viewing the demo DVD, we noticed the picture appeared a little clearer with the
Hitachi (800 line) cameras, but not extremely so. We suspect there might be a more
noticeable difference in the quality of the pictures from the two cameras in an actual
broadcast situation.
In all our discussions with those knowledgeable about video technology, it was
recommended that we use cameras with at least 600 lines of horizontal resolution.
This is because television monitors have 525 lines of horizontal resolution. If a
camera with fewer than that Humber of lines is used, there will be a decrease in the
3(k)
quality of the picture. The primary advantage of the Hitachi camera is that it meets
the 600 line requirement.
At this time, we plan to configure the cameras in a fixed focus anode: one fixed on the
council dais, one on staff, and one on the podium (presentations made through the
digital presenter will also be broadcast). However, if in the future it is decided that a
more sophisticated presentation is desired, pan-tilt controllers and motorized lenses
may be added to the Hitachi cameras to permit close-ups and other changes in focus,
panning, etc.
The primary advantage of the Ikegami cameras is price. For the three cameras
needed, there would be a total saving of$5,000 to $6,000 if they are selected over the
Hitachi cameras. Also, as they are installed in a dome (which can be recessed), the
Ikegami cameras may be more aesthetically pleasing than the Hitachi cameras, which
would need to be mounted on brackets suspended from the ceiling.
If, as discussed above, in the future a more sophisticated type of broadcast is desired,
the Ikegami cameras would need to be removed and replaced with better quality
cameras.
AUDIO: The proposal for the audio system is to replace our microphones and all the
table-top equipment with Sennheiser equipment, leaving the amplifier and all the
other equipment in the back closet in place. Also, included is equipment to digitally
record and reproduce audio recordings of meetings on cd and copy them to cassette
tapes. (A cassette tape system may not be necessary.)
B. Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Hitachi 800 line cameras be selected.
Or if Council desires the Ikegami 480 line cameras, the cost would be reduced by
approximately $6,000. With Council concurrence, staff will develop a formal
agreement with Advanced Broadcast Solutions for technical consultation services for
the installation of video and audio systems for final approval by Council.

III. FISCAL IMPACT: NONE
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A. Upon request by the City Council the Planning Commission held a
public hearing on December 15, 2005 to consider a code
amendment that would create provisions for adjoining property
owner notification of a pending short plat approval.
B. At the conclusion of the December 15th public hearing the Planning
Commission recommended approval of the attached code
amendment.
V. DISCUSSION:
A. The current subdivisions regulations do not provide a process for
notification of adjoining property owners of a pending short plat
approval. Short plat approval is an administrative process
involving review by the Planning and Engineering Departments.
Unlike preliminary plats that require notification of adjoining
property owners and a public hearing, short plats are reviewed and
approved administratively by City staff members.
B. The proposed code amendment creates a. process for short plat
approval that provides an opportunity for adjoining property
owners to comment, if they wish, on proposed short plats.
C. Under the proposal short plat approvals would still be an
administrative process.

Memo
To: Planning Commission
From: Jeff Adams, Associate City Planner
Subject: Public Notice Requirements for Short Plats
Date: December 15, 2005
At the last regular meeting the Planning Commission held a workshop session
to consider a request by the City Council to amend the subdivision regulations.
The City Council specifically asked the Planning Commission to consider an
amendment that would mandate notifying nearby property owners of pending
short plats in a way that essentially reflects the notification procedure used for
rezones and long plats.
Staff reviewed the following recommendations:
1) Add a section under 26.36.080(2) "administrative duties" that would
specifically mandate notification to "Property owners within 300 feet of a
proposed short plat.
2) Add wording under section 26.36.080(3) "administrative duties" that
would allow property owners within 300 feet of a proposed short plat to
submit comments for consideration, and would require those comments
to become part of the official file.
3) Add verbiage under section 26.36.080(3) "administrative duties" that
would require the City Planner to respond within 10 days to any
comments received from property owners within 300 feet of a proposed
short plat within the allotted time period.
4) Amend section 26.36.080(3) "administrative duties" to allow property
owners within 300 feet of a proposed short plat to appeal decisions made
by the City Planner to the Community and Economic Development
Director within 7 days of the City Planner's written response.
The proposed code amendment is attached.

PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES NOVEMBER 17, 2005
CALL TO ORDER:
A. Workshop: CODE AMENDMENT: Short Plat Notification
(City of Pasco) (MF# 05-166-CA)
Staff explained this item was sent to the Planning Commission by the City
Council. Staff noted proposed changes would provide property owners within
300 feet notice of a pending Short Plat. The property owners would be afforded
an opportunity to submit comments on a short plat proposal. The proposed
code amendment would also allow an appeal process to the Community and
Economic Development Director. Staff also explained that a short plat was a
land subdivision creating nine lots or less.
Commissioner Gundy asked for a review the proposed changes.
Staff stated the proposed changes would provide notification to property
owners within 300 feet of the proposed short plat and those owners would be
