IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
School Resource Officers (SRO) are full-time uniformed police officers primarily
dedicated to providing law enforcement resource services to assigned schools and
surrounding neighborhoods. SROs are assigned to work at their assigned school for eight
hours each scheduled school day. There are 180 school days each year from August to
June, or about nine months. SROs are assigned to work normal patrol duties when school
is not in session.
The Interagency Agreement between Pasco School District and the City of Pasco
provides one SRO at Stevens Middle School, one SRO at Ochoa Middle School, and one
SRO at Pasco High School. The Pasco School District also pays to have an officer
instructor teach an anti-bullying curriculum 580 hours each year.
V. DISCUSSION:
This proposed Interagency Agreement is a two-year agreement effective August 2007
through June 2009, and provides three (3) School Resource Officers. This partnership
between the Police Department's SRO program and the School District has successfully
continued for the past decade. The School District will reimburse the City for the salary
and fringe benefits costs for three (3) officers at the top salary level for police officer for
180 school days per year. As evidence of their intention to move forward with the
proposed Interagency Agreement, the School District has signed the agreement and
committed funds to reimburse the City for the wages and benefit costs for three School
Resource Officers and the officer instructor.

IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
School Resource Officers (SRO) are full-time uniformed police officers primarily
dedicated to providing law enforcement resource services to assigned schools and
surrounding neighborhoods. The School District has requested an extension of the SRO
services for the 2007 Summer School at Pasco High School. Normally, SRO services are
not provided during summer months. However, for the second consecutive year the
School District has consolidated all summer school programs at Pasco High School,
which places more than 1,600 students at one school. As a proactive measure, the School
District has requested SRO services for eight hours each summer school day. There are
19 summer school days from June to July. SROs are assigned to work normal patrol
duties when school is not in session.
V. DISCUSSION:
The proposed Interagency Agreement is effective June through July 2007, and provides
one School Resource Officer for the 2007 Summer School. The School District will
reimburse the City for the salary and fringe benefits costs for one officer at the top salary
level for police officer for eight hours during 19 summer school days. As evidence of
their intention to move forward with the proposed Interagency Agreement the School
District has committed funds to reimburse the City for the wages and benefit costs for
one School Resource Officer.

officers. Having direct contact will enable the coordinator to seek funding for localized
traffic safety issues and emphasis patrols that most affect our geographic area. The grant
funding for this position is two years with no cost to the city.

395, 240, 12, 124, 397, 17, 14, 224 and 260.
General Problem Identification: Benton and Franklin Counties have seen several major
changes in the area of traffic safety. Among these changes is the consistent rise in population,
including the Hispanic/Latino community, especially during the harvest season. In fact, according
to the 2000 Census data, 47% of the population in Franklin Cc is Hispanic/Latino. This is even
higher than the 36% in Yakima Co. In addition, market research indicates that these numbers are
permanent residents; there are as many as 100,000 additional seasonal/migrant workers that live
in Eastern WA during the harvest season.
According to data (1996-2005) of the 157 traffic fatalities in Benton Co, 135 were vehicle occupants
(85%). While in Franklin County (1996-2005), of the 81 traffic deaths, 74 were vehicle occupants
(91%). Both Benton and Franklin Counties are higher than the state percentage of 78.3%.
Of the 157 fatalities in Benton Co, 66% (or 104) were male while 33% (or 53) were female. In
Franklin Co during the same time frame, of the 81 fatalities, 71% (58) were male and 28% (23)
were females. This data indicates that the male demographics are over represented, therefore
playing a vital role in the overall number of fatalities.
In conclusion, the above data is a sign of overpopulated roadways and a large number of the
drivers who are unfamiliar with state laws. Without continuing education, prevention and
enforcement this combination is deadly.
Primary_Focus Areas: After reviewing the available data,the Strategic Highway Safety Plan and
the Highway Safety Plan, the Traffic Safety Task Force will focus on 4 primary traffic safety
issues for this funding period; impaired driving, Hispanic/Latino surnamed drivers, speed, and
occupant protection.
A) IMPAIRED DRIVING:
1) Problem identification: Despite the continuing education and increased enforcement, DUI
continues to be a problem. From 1996--2005, there were 157 fatal crashes in Benton Co in which
impairment accounted for 29.29% (46). This percentage has decreased from the 39.3% from
1993-2003, but impairment remains a problem. In Franklin Co (1996-2005), there were 81 fatal
crashes in which impairment accounted for 40.74% (33 impaired driving involved).
The total number of fatalities involving alcohol in Benton Co has decreased from 2001 (9 of 20) to
2005 (3 of 15). During this same timeframe, Franklin Cc saw a large increase from 2001 (2 of 12)
to 2002 (6 of 11), but in the proceeding years a definite decrease was present (2 of 4 in 2003, 2 of
3 in 2004, and 0 of 3 in 2005).
Although this data shows a decrease in fatalities in both counties, it also indicates that impaired
driver's still plays a major role in the overall number of fatal collisions.
According to WSP, B/F Counties had 9 fatalities in 2006 in which 2 were DUI related (1 Hispanic/1
Caucasian). In other words, 22.22% of the fatalities in 2006 involved an impaired driver. This is an
increase from 2005 where there was 1 (drug impaired).
DUI ARRESTS: In 2005, the combined LE agencies of B/F Counties arrested 1,943 impaired
drivers and 1,999 in 2004. This decrease in total number of arrests is due to the shortage of
staffing issues each agency has experienced in recent years.
Although data indicates a decrease in arrests, the small town of W. Richland is an exception. In
2004, W. Richland (Benton Co) made 28 DUI arrests and in 2005 the number increased to 52.
During the last Drive Hammered, Get Nailed Campaign (2006), the officers of W. Richland made
17 DUI arrests. This is the 2nd highest arrest rate in the state during this campaign.
Note: The cost for an officer to arrest a DUI is significant to not only the citizens of Benton and
Franklin Counties, but to the state of WA as a whole. Taking in to account that an average pay of a
rnidline officer in B/F is approx. $35/hr and 'the average arrest time for a DUI (from traffic stop to
booking) is approx. 3 hrs, the cost is upward of $105 per arrest. That means, the number of
arrests made in 2004 (1,999) cost approx. $209,895.00 (officers time) and in 2005 (1,943) it cost
approx. $204,015. The average cost of a fatal collision is $1,150,321 therefore the 14 fatalities in
B/F totaled approx. 111,145,948.
2) GOAL: To reduce the number of collisions involving impaired drivers, therefore
decreasing the number of fatality collisions.
3) Project Activities and Tasks:
• Assist, coordinate and participate in statewide campaigns such as Drive Hammered, Get
Nailed and other DUI Emphasis Patrols such as; DOTS.
• Work collaboratively with WTSC and contractors to maximize the results of these
campaigns.
• Utilize all local media groups (3 TV stations, 14 radio stations, 1 newspaper) through
PSA'S, commercials, news stories and press conferences to raise the awareness of the
enforcement efforts, consequences, and new laws as it pertains to alcohol
• Utilize WTSC resources such as; banners, posters, variable road signs, airplane banners
• Assist in securing funding for extra enforcements such as DOTS, especially during those
times where drinking and driving has been identified as a particular problem (boat race
weekend, St. Patrick's Day, Cinco De Mayo, etc.)
■ Maintain stats on DUI'S, and traffic related deaths and collisions involving alcohol
4) Evaluation: This goal's evaluation will be tracked and measured by using data from various
sources such as; local statistics, WTSC, NHTSA, DOT, FARS etc. All are proven strategies and
comply with the SHSP.

B) HISPANIC/LATINO SURNAMED DRIVERS:
1) Problem identification: The Mid-Columbia Valley has seen a significant increase in the
number of Hispanic/Latino surnamed drivers in the past few years especially during the harvest
season. In 2006, the Hispanic population in Franklin Co. was approx. 4% while in Benton Go. it is
12%. In 2004, Pasco made 199 DUI arrests (# excludes the mos. of Sept. & Oct.), and 130 of
those were Hispanic(65% of the DUI arrests were Hispanic/Latino). In 2005, Franklin Co Sheriffs
Office made 69 arrests and 31 of those were Hispanic (44% of the DUI arrests were
Hispanic/Latino.
According to WSP, Hispanic surnamed drivers are over represented in fatality collisions in 2000
(47%), 2001 (55%), and in 2002 (49%). In 2002, there were 20 fatal collisions of which 12 were
DUI involved and of those, 9 were Hispanic. During that same year, 11 of the 20 fatal collisions
happened during the fall harvest season. In 2004, there were 14 fatal collisions in which 9 were
alcohol involved...almost half of those were Hispanic/Latino. In 2006, WSP (Kenn Detachment
includes WM) reported 14 fatal collisions in which 4 involved Hispanic Surnamed Drivers (1
involving impairment).
Since the inception of the "El Protector" program, Eastern WA has seen a significant reduction of
traffic related deaths, especially involving Hispanic surnamed drivers. This reduction is attributed
to the outreach program WSP and local LE continue to provide the community.
In 2002, Eastern WA was hit with the reality and severity of the lack of attention the Hispanic
community received regarding traffic safety when 4 separate tragedies occurred. In Jan., the 1st
incident left 1 dead and 2 critically injured, in June, 3 died leaving 3 critically injured, in Sept., 5
died critically injuring 1 and the Oct. incident took 1 life and left 4 critically injured.
2) Goal: To reduce the number of collisions involving Hispanic/Latino surnamed driver's
especially involving impairment (reduce traffic related deaths and injuries involving
Hispanics/Latinos).
3) Project Activities and Tasks:
■ Attend, participate and assist in the El Protector meetings&community outreach efforts
■ Provide educational materials (literature, videos, CD's, etc.) in Spanish to groups,
individuals and events about traffic safety issues especially pertaining to drinking and
driving (B/F Juvenile Justice, school presentations, Hanford Expo, B/F Fair, etc.)
• Assist with media (LaVoz, Viva Hispanic newspapers, weekly on-air talk shows, PSA'S
with Charter Media/Univision)
■ Attend issue related conferences and trainings
4) Evaluation: This goal's evaluation will be tracked and measured by using data from various
sources such as; local statistics, WTSC, NHTSA, DOT, etc. All are proven strategies and comply
with the SHSP.

C) SPEED:
1) Problem identification: In 2005, 247 people died on WA State roadways in speeding related
crashes. In other words, 38%of all traffic fatalities in 2005 involved speed which is higher than the
US rate of 30% (13,113 fatalities)
Of the 157 fatal collisions in Benton Co. (1996-2005), 50 involved a speeding driver. That
accounts for 31.85%of the fatal collisions were speed related. In Franklin Co., 22 of the 81 fatal
collisions involved speed (1996-2005). That accounts for 27.16%of the fatal collisions were speed
related. In 2001 of the 20 fatalities in Benton Co, 6 involved speed. Despite the total number of
fatalities decreasing in the proceeding 4 years, the number of those that involved speed stayed
consistently the same (3 of 15 in 2002, 1 of 9 in 2003, 6 of 19 in 2004, and 5 of 15 in 2005). In
2004, of the 19 fatalities, 6 were speed related (this is the same #as 2001). In Franklin Co, speed
related fatalities has definitely declined from 2001 to 2005 (4 of 12 in 2001, 3 of 11 in 2002, 0 of 4
in 2003, 2 of 3 in 2004, and 1 of 3 in 2005) (National Center for Statistics &Analysis).
In 2005 (January-April), according to the WSP (Kenn Detachment includes W/W), 19,007 speed
contacts were made. Kennewick PD wrote 11,300 traffic citations in 2005 (Jan-Dec 23), of which,
2,861 were for speeding. Of the 11,300 citations written in 2005, 414 were for school zone
speeding. That's 28.98% of all traffic citations wrote in 2005 were speed related. During this same
year (2005), Pasco PD reported 5,019 driving infractions of which 1,576 were speed related and
454 were school zone speed related. That's 40.45% of the traffic infractions in the city limits of
Pasco were speed related. In Franklin Co, deputies wrote 1,513 citations for speed.
2) GOAL: To reduce the number of traffic related deaths and injuries involving speed by
decreasing the number of speed related crashes.
3) Project Activities and Tasks: To increase enforcement pertaining to speed and the use
of media to raise awareness of the efforts.
• Assist, coordinate and participate in statewide campaigns pertaining to speed
enforcement/emphasis patrols.
• Work collaboratively with WTSC and contractors to maximize the results of these
campaigns.
• Utilize all local media groups (3 TV stations, 14 radio stations, 1 newspaper) through
PSA'S, commercials, news stories and press conferences to raise the awareness of 'the
enforcerent efforts, consequences, and new laws as it pertains to alcohol
■ Utilize WTSC resources such as; banners, posters, variable road signs, airplane banners
• Maintain stats on speed related infractions and collisions
■ Conduct surveys in public entities such as the Columbia Center Mall or by utilizing the
media (websites) accompanied by media (pertaining to behavior and knowledge),
• Identify problem locations involving speed
• Identify demographics involved in speed (age group, gender)
• Identify collisions involving both speed and impairment.
4) Evaluation: This goal's evaluation will be tracked and measured by using data from various
entities such as; local statistics, WTSC, NHTSA, DOT, etc. All are proven strategies and comply
with the SHSP.

**Number of people surveyed
C) Occupant Protection
1) Problem Identification: WA State Fatality Data, from 1996—2005, shows 6,439 people died
on WA roadways and of those 2,201 were restrained while 2,600 were not. Of the 6,439 fatalities
in WA from 1996-2005, 40.38%were not buckled up. During this same timeframe in Benton Co, of
the 157 fatalities, 44.59% of those were not buckled up (70) and in Franklin Co, of the 81 fatalities,
46.91%were unrestrained (38). Data indicates that both counties are higher than the state rate.
Of the 452 (aged 5 & above) fatally injured vehicle occupants, 232 were restrained (51.33%used
some sort of restraint system) (WA state report "Restraint Use(Safety Belts& Child Seats)
among fatally injured passenger vehicle occupants"). In the age bracket of under 5 in the
same report, 6 of the 11 were restrained (54.55% used some sort of restraint system).
2) GOAL: To increase seatbelt usage rate therefore decreasing the number of fatalities
involving unrestrained vehicle occupants.
3) Project Activities and Tasks:
• Assist, coordinate and participate in state campaigns such as; Click It or Ticket Campaigns
and the Nighttime Click It or Ticket Campaigns
• Work collaboratively with WTSC and contractors to maximize the results of these
campaigns.
• Utilize WTSC resources such as; banners, posters, variable road signs, airplane banners
• Attend, participate and assist in the efforts of the B-F Safe Kids Coalition (includes
attending monthly meetings)
• Maintain stats regarding occupant protection (both adult and child)
• Attend any issue related conferences and trainings
• Utilize the media (TV, radio, newspaper) through PSA'S, commercials, news stories and
press conferences to raise the awareness of the enforcement efforts, consequences, and
new laws as they pertain to occupant prevention
4) Evaluation: This goal's evaluation will be tracked and measured by using data from various
entities such as; local statistics, WTSC, NHTSA, DOT, etc.

Other Activities and Tasks:
• Coopers Corner:
Coopers Corner is not a proven strategy but the success of the project will
ultimately reduce the number of traffic related deaths and serious injuries in the
Mid Columbia. We will have a better idea of the effectiveness in 3 to 5
• Every 15 Minutes Programs:
The Every 15 Minutes program is not a proven strategy but has been a part of
Benton and Franklin Counties for 10+ years. All of the high schools in the 2
counties participate by conducting their own program. Each area designs their
own program according 'the unique attributes of the specific area.
• LE Agency Surveys:
Surveys will be conducted for each LE Agency to determine any special needs of
the individual jurisdictions. 'these will initially be completed by upper management
and discussed with Chiefs and Sheriffs.
Other tasks to maintain an effective Task Force:
■ Continue to employ and maintain a Task Force Coordinator
■ Serve as a central hub and liaison for communication about traffic safety projects,
activities, enforcements, and reporting mobilization statistics
■ Serve as a central hub and liaison for the media (including ride-along coordination)
• Hold Task Force meetings at least quarterly if not monthly

AGENDA REPORT NO. 56
For: City Council June 21, 2007
To: Gary Crutch tel anager
Workshop: 06/25/07
Regular: 07/02/07
From: Richard J. Smith, Director
Community and Economic Development
SUBJECT: Solid Waste Management Plan
I. REFERENCE(S):
A. Interlocal Agreement
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL/STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
6/25: Discussion
07/02: MOTION: I move to approve the Interlocal Agreement with Franklin County
for development of the 2008 Integrated Franklin County Solid Waste
Management Plan and, further, authorize the Mayor to sign the agreement.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) The 2008 Franklin County Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Plan will be
updated in accordance to RCW 70.95, the Solid Waste Management-Reduction and
Recycling Act. The law requires the county, in cooperation with the cities within the
county, to prepare a solid waste management plan. The updated document will
replace the 1994 Benton-Franklin Regional Solid Waste Management Plan and
Program. The recommendations of the 2008 plan will guide local decision makers
and substantiate the need for local funds and state grants to underwrite solid waste
projects.
B) Under state law, each city in a county may fulfill its solid waste management
planning responsibilities in one of three ways: prepare it's own solid waste
management plan for integration into the comprehensive plan; participate with the
county in preparing a joint city-county plan for solid waste management; or,
authorize the county to prepare a plan for the city's solid waste management for
inclusion in the comprehensive county plan.
C) At the May 29, 2007 workshop Council heard a presentation by Jack Clark a
consultant who has been retained by the County to prepare the updated plan. Some
members of Council expressed concern that the cities did not have any apparent
means to modify or reject a Solid Waste Management Plan that could result in a cost,
particularly a disproportionate cost, to the City.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) The County staff has modified the proposed Interlocal Agreement to address City
concerns by adding language which reads: "Any recommendation in the plan, which
would result in a cost to any governmental entity shall be pre-approved by the local
government before presentation to County Commission for adoption into the plan."
(see page IV.0 of Interlocal)
B) The City Attorney has reviewed this revised Agreement for legal form and
sufficiency. He has also made a number of technical changes which bring the
Agreement into compliance with Washington State statutes for Interlocal ����
Agreements.
WHEN RECORDED RETURN TO:

AGENDA REPORT
TO: City Council June 28, 2007
FROM: Gary Crutch Manager Regular Mtg.: 7/2/07
SUBJECT: Community +ey
1. REFERENCE(S):
1. Timeline for National Citizen Survey, September Class
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL/STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
7/2: MOTION: I move to authorize the City Manager to contract for conduct of the
2007 National Citizen Survey in an amount not to exceed $10,000.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
Approximately $9,000
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) The city contracted with the National Research Center in Boulder (Colorado) in late
2005 for the conduct of the "National Citizen Survey" in Pasco. The survey is a
nationally standardized survey used by communities throughout the country to gauge
the citizens' perception of municipal service delivery. The report was useful in
defining concerns for Council to address during its 2006 biennial retreat (spring of
each even-numbered year) and was also used to gain citizen response to three specific
questions selected by the City Council(in addition to the standard survey questions).
B) In anticipation of the 2008 Council retreat, staff is preparing to contract for the
National Citizen Survey to be conducted in late 2007, for receipt of the report in
January 2008 (providing plenty of time to incorporate the results in preparation for
the Council retreat in spring 2008). In addition to its use for Council retreat, the
survey will become an integral part of the city's recent effort (in conjunction with
Kennewick and Richland as well as Yakima) to implement a formal "performance
measurement program," using the International City Management Association
program, as authorized in the 2007 budget. The survey is used to compliment the
financial data that will be collected each year regarding certain service functions, to
add a qualitative perspective to the quantitative information. Thus, it is even more
important that the survey be conducted on a regular basis (every two years).
C) The base cost for the survey is $8,900. The city is permitted to include up to three
specific questions with the survey. The data may also be compiled in a "Normative
Comparisons" report which compares Pasco's survey data with that of other
jurisdictions of comparable size around the country; the additional cost for this report
is $1,000. The survey is conducted in English but may include a Spanish language
element for an additional cost of$1,400(this option was used in the 2005 survey).
V. DISCUSSION:
A) Staff strongly recommends the survey be conducted in late 2007, preferably in
October; thus, the commitment must be filed with the National Research Center by
September 2007. Doing so will result in the report being provided to the city by
January 1.
B) The use of up to three specific questions was beneficial in the 2005 survey, and it
may be for the 2007 survey as well. Staff would appreciate direction on what
specific questions to include; it is understood that the specific questions need not be
identified until October 1.
C) The Spanish language option is not recommended for the 2007 survey. It was used in
the 2005 survey; the poor response rate (4 responses) made that element useless as a
survey evaluation and reflected an extremely high cost per response($350 each!).
D) Staff requests authorization to contract for the survey, identification of any specific
questions and confirmation that the survey be conducted in English only.

REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION
MASTER FILE NO: SP-07-004 APPLICANT: La Clinica
HEARING DATE: 05/ 17/07 515 W Court St
ACTION DATE: 06/21/07 Pasco, WA 99301
BACKGROUND
REQUEST: SPECIAL PERMIT: Location of a Crisis Response building in a R-2
Zone (La Clinica for Franklin County) (1020 S 7th
Ave)
1. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION:
Lots 4-6, Block 12, Gantenbein's Addition
General Location: 1020 S 7th Ave
Property Size: Approximately 1/2 acre
2. ACCESS: The site has access from S. 7t►Ave.
3. UTILITIES: The property is currently connected to municipal utilities.
4. LAND USE AND ZONING: The site is zoned R-3 (Medium Density
Residential) and is developed with the Benton Franklin Detox Center.
Surrounding zoning and land use is as follows:
NORTH- R-2/City park
SOUTH- I-1/Port of Pasco vacant land.
EAST- R-3/ Church
WEST- R-2/ Manufactured dwelling
5. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan makes provisions for
the siting of facilities of a county wide nature such as the Detox Center
(CP 2.2 Policy # 4.
6. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: This proposal has been issued a
determination of nonsignificance in accordance with review under the
State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), Chapter 43.21 (c) (RCW).
DISCUSSION
The proposal calls for a new building to be added to the Benton Franklin
Detoxification Center on South 7th Avenue. The new building will house offices
used for counseling individuals with addiction problems and or for assisting
individuals struggling with suicidal tendencies. The property in question has
been occupied by the Benton Franklin County Detox Center for almost 25
years. Site improvements consist of a parking lot, a Detox building and some
poorly maintained landscaping.
The proposed facility is classified as a community service facility and as such
can only be located in the community following a review through the special
permit process.
The existing Detox facility has been in operation for 25 years with minimal
impact to the surrounding neighborhood. The manufactured home located
directly west of the Detox Center was placed on the lot 12 years after the Detox
Center was opened. Likewise the church on the east side of S 711 was
significant expanded after the opening of the Detox Center.
The City recently improved the street right-of-way along the south site of the
site in conjunction with the Ainsworth overpass. That street work completed
all the necessary public improvements adjoining the property. The on site
improvements such as the parking lot and landscaping have fallen into a state
of disrepair. The areas on the attached site plan that indicate grass along
Ainsworth Ave is more of a cheat grass patch and gravel than actual lawn. The
mugo pine appears to contain only weed grasses and the crushed rock along S
7th is cover in weed grasses. Current standards (for commercial properties)
would require the planting strip along S 71h to contain 65 percent live
vegetation. May want to consider requiring site improvements if the new
building is recommended for approval.
STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT
Findings of fact must be entered from the record. The following are initial
findings drawn from the background and analysis section of the staff report
and comments made at the public hearing. The Planning Commission may
add additional findings as deemed appropriate.
1. The County Detox Center has been on the site for approximately 25
years.
2
2. The property is zoned R-2.
3. The remainder of the block is developed with a manufactured home and
Mercer Park.
4. The manufactured home west of the Detox Center was placed there 12
years ago
5. The Detox Center opened in 1983.
6. Surrounding property to the north is developed with a City park (Mercer
Park).
7. The city recently installed new curb gutter and sidewalk along the south
boundary of the Detox Center.
8. The landscaping and parking lot of the Detox Center have fallen into a
state of disrepair.
9. Current landscaping standards require live vegetation in the parking lot
buffer areas.
CONCLUSIONS BASED ON STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT
Before recommending approval or denial of a special permit the Planning
Commission must draw its conclusion from the findings of fact based upon the
criteria listed in P.M.C. 25.86.060. The criteria and staff listed conclusions are
as follows:
1) Will the proposed use be in accordance with the goals, policies, objectives
and text of the Comprehensive Plan?
Policies of the Comprehensive Plan state that no local regulations will
preclude the siting of facilities such as the Detox center but the City can
insure compatibility with adjoining land uses. The proposed use is an
extension of an existing community facility that has been in place for
about 25 years.
2) Will the proposed use adversely affect public infrastructure?
The proposed use will have little or not impact on public infrastructure.
The proposed office will have minimal needs for water sewer and other
utilities.
3) Will the proposed use be constructed, maintained and operated to be in
harmony with existing or intended character of the general vicinity?
The proposed building is and addition to the existing Detox Center that
has been located on the site for almost 25 years. The proposed building
will not alter the character of the neighborhood.
3
4) Will the location and height of proposed structures and the site design
discourage the development of permitted uses on property in the general
vicinity or impair the value thereof?
The presence of the existing Detox Center has not been detrimental to
development of adjacent properties or the value thereof. The church to
the east expanded after the location of the Detox Center and a number
of manufactured homes were located half a block west of the Detox
center in the mid-1990's.
5f Will the operations in connection with the proposal be more objectionable
to nearby properties by reason of noise,fumes, vibrations, dust, traffic, or
flashing lights than would be the operation of any permitted uses within
the district?
The proposed building will generate little additional traffic. No noise,
fumes, dust, vibrations, or flashing lights will be created by the
proposal.
6) Will the proposed use endanger the public health or safety if located and
developed where proposed, or in anyway will become a nuisance to uses
permitted in the district?
The proposed building will be located on the same property as the
County Detox Center and will be used to augment services related to the
Detox Center. The existing facility has not been a nuisance to the
neighborhood.
RECOMMENDATION
MOTION: I move the Planning Commission adopt the Findings of Fact
and conclusions as contained in the May 17, 2007 staff report.
MOTION: I move, based on the findings of fact as adopted, the Planning
Commission recommend the City Council grant a special permit to the
Benton Franklin Detox Center with conditions as contained in the June
21, 2007 staff report:
1) The special permit shall be personal to the applicant.
2) The property must be developed in substantial conformance to the
site plan submitted with the application.
4
3) The poorly maintained and or dead lawn surrounding the exiting
Detox building shall be reestablished, properly irrigated and properly
maintained.
4) All weeds and debris shall be removed from the site and the site shall
be maintained in a weed free condition.
5) The landscaped bed south of the parking lot shall be reestablished
with shrubs as originally prescribed on the Detox Center plans.
6) The setback between the parking lot and South 7th Avenue shall be
cleaned up and planted with shrubs. A plan for the plantings must
be submitted to the community 8v Economic Development director for
approval prior to planting.
7) The new building addition shall match the color of the existing Detox
building.
8) A landscape plan must be approved by the Community & Economic
Development Director prior to installation.
9) The special permit shall be null and void if a building permit has not
been obtained by July 1, 2008.

NEW BUSINESS:
A. Special Permit Crisis Response Building (La Clinica for Franklin
County) (1020 S 7th Ave.) (MF# SP07-004)
Staff addressed the Commission and advised that notice of the application has
been mailed to surrounding property owners and published in the newspaper.
The application is for an additional building to be placed at the detox center
located on S. 7th, just north of Ainsworth Avenue. The detox center has been
located on this property for approximately twenty-five years. Surrounding
property uses include a park, a modular home community, and a church and
migrant council daycare facility. The additional building will be used for
business offices and telephone counseling.
Commissioner Samuel asked if staff was aware of any code enforcement
activity on the site.
Staff responded that they are not aware of any code enforcement actions. The
current condition of the site could be addressed in the conditions placed up on
the application's approval.
Commissioner Anderson asked how large the new building will be.
Staff responded that the building would be a modular building, located
approximately six to eight feet from the existing building.
Commissioner Samuel asked if the number of required parking spaces will be
preserved.
Staff responded that most of the program participants do not drive. Parking
will be required for staff only; the existing parking lot should be adequate to
cover that requirement.
The Chairman opened the Public Hearing.
Teresa Avalos, 8407 Wembly, Pasco, WA addressed the Commission and stated
that she represented the applicant. The building will be additional office space
for existing staff at the detox facility.
Commissioner Samuel asked how large the facility is now, and how large the
add-on would be.
Ms. Avalos responded that the facility now has twelve beds; the new building
would be a double wide modular unit housing four offices.
Commissioner Samuel asked how many beds are usually full in a typical week.
Ms. Avalos deferred to the supervisor of the facility to answer the question.
Mr. Salas, 659 S. Saddle Road, Othello, WA addressed the Commission and
advised that the occupancy rate varies, but usually there are between eight and
twelve clients per week.
Commissioner Samuel asked if Mr. Salas could comment on the existing
condition of the landscaping, and how they might improve it.
Mr. Salas stated that a proposal will be made to the maintenance department
of La Clinica to install underground sprinklers. He added that the site usually
doesn't look as bad as it does currently, and that they plan to improve the
situation.
Commissioner Samuel asked if improvement of the landscaping could be made
a condition of approval for the project. He requested that specific requirements
for the landscaping improvements be detailed in the conditions for the project.
Staff stated that they will include improvement of landscaping in the conditions
of approval.
Commissioner Samuel asked if the facility operates 24/7.
Mr. Salas responded that it does operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Commissioner Ray asked what the length of time is for the average stay of a
participant.
Mr. Salas responded that for an alcoholic the average stay is three days; for a
drug addict, five days.
Commissioner Samuel asked if there has been any police involvement or other
problems with neighbors complaining about the facility.
Mr. Salas stated that they have not had any problems.
Commissioner Samuel asked if the application was denied, what would happen
to the program.
Mr. Salas replied that they would continue to function as they have been.
After three calls for public comment the Chairman closed the Public Hearing.
Commissioner Rose moved to close the hearing on the proposed special permit
and to initiate deliberations and schedule adoption of Findings of Fact
Conclusions and a Recommendation to the City Council for the June 21, 2007
meeting.
Commissioner Anderson seconded the motion; motion carried unanimously.
