SUBJECT: Civil Service Commission Appointment
I. REFERENCE(S):
1. PMC 2.33
2. Application, Cos Edwards
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL/STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
11/S: Discussion
11/15: MOTION: 1 move to confirm the City Manager's reappointment of Cos
Edwards to Position No. 2 on the Civil Service Commission term
to expire 2/17/16.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
(none)
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) State Law (RCW 41.08 and 41.12) requires the city to maintain a Civil Service
Commission for its Police and Fire Departments. PMC 2.33 provides for the
Pasco Civil Service Commission and appointment of its members to six-year
terms.
B) The Civil Service Commission is to be composed of three citizens to assure
fairness and impartiality in the hiring and promotion of Lmiformed police and fire
employees. The Commission also decides appeals of discipline administered to
uniformed Police and Fire employees, when such employees elect to use the Civil
Service Commission hearing process (rare occasions) rather than the grievance
arbitration process afforded in their respective bargaining contracts. In addition,
the city has designated the Civil Service Commissioners to fill the role of a
personnel board to consider certain appeals of issues relating to non-uniformed
employees who are not otherwise covered by a collective bargaining agreement.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) The key attributes of a Civil Service Commission/Personnel Board member are
experience in managing people in the workplace and the ability to make a fair and
impartial decision based on the facts surrounding an issue. Mr. Edwards has
demonstrated that ability for more than 20 years as a member of the Civil Service
Commission. It should be noted, also, that Mr. Edwards contributes to the ethnic
diversity of the Commission, thus reflecting the diversity of the community at
large.
B) Although appointments to the Civil Service Commission are made by the City
Manager, PMC 2.33 provides for"...consent of the City Council." Consent of the
City Council is hereby requested (in the form of the proposed motion).

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 2011 in accordance with State law,
11.1. IIISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
The maximum allowed levy rate, per State statute, that the City of Pasco can levy per $1,000 of
assessed value is $3.60. The last time Pasco's levy rate was near that number was in 1994.
From 1994 through 1999, the levy rate was reduced by not levying any of the allowable 6%
increase available at that time.
In November 1999, the legislature reduced the Motor Vehicle Fxcise Tax (MVET) to $30 per
vehicle. To compensate for this loss, Council elected to use most of the unused or banked levy
capacity. The levy rate for 2000 taxes was set at $3.07 per $1,000 of assessed value — still well
below the $3.60 maximum.
In 2001, the voters approved Initiative 747, limiting the amount taxing districts could raise the
property tax levy over the previous year by the lesser of 1% or the Implicit Price Deflator (IPD),
without voter approval. In November 2007, that initiative was challenged and ruled
unconstitutional in the Washington State Supreme Court; that decision returned the limit to the
lesser of 6% or 1PD. Council chose not to increase the 2008 property tax levy rate by any
allowable legal limit.
In January 2008, the legislature placed into law those limits (suggested by I-747). The legal limit
was to be the lesser of I% or IPD; this limit is still in effect today. IPD is a national inflation
indicator much like the Consumer Price Index. The IPD figure to be used for the 2011 tax
calculation is 1.539%.
The preliminary budget document has been prepared using an estimated property tax levy of
$6,000,000 which is less than Option 1 and Option 2 as can be seen in the attached Summary of
Options. Option 1 reflects an increase of$58,653 allowed by the 1%limit while Option 2 retains
100% of the 2010 levy. Option 3 shows the maximum amount the City could collect if Council
chose to levy all prior property tax authority that has been preserved for future use.
7(a)
Pasco has been affected by the poor overall economic conditions of the entire country and has
seen a serious decline in sales tax revenues. Increased utility tax revenues have helped to offset
some of the sales tax decline, and major tax revenues for 2011 are projected to hold steady with
2010 year end estimates.
Pasco has been fortunate in that our prior budgeting practices included conservative budgeting in
several areas which has consistent fund balances to prepare the 2011 budget. Staff is projecting
a $6 million beginning fund balance in the General Fund for next year.
The property tax levy for 2011 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 required to certify property tax levies with the County by November 30 of each year.
IV. DISCUSSION:
The Franklin County Assessor has provided a preliminary assessed valuation of $3,049,417,376
which is used to calculate the 2011 property taxes. This amount includes new construction of
$120,591,600 and increase in the State assessed utilities values of $3,044,089. There were no
annexations of property before the cutoff date of March 3151. The Franklin County Assessor's
Office now re-assesses all properties in the County each year.
GENERAL PROPERTY TAX LEVY
Several options for setting the 2011 levy are outlined as follows:
Option 1:
Since the IPD is greater than 1% (1.539%) last year's levy would be increased by the allowed
1% of $58,653 plus the value of new construction, new annexations and any increases in State
Assessed Utility values at last year's rate and adding those numbers to last year's total leery.
2010 Total General Property Tax Levy $5,865,306
1% increase in the levy rate based on the allowable
maximum increase amount(Lesser of IPD or 1%) 58,653
New Construction Values of$120,591,600
using the 2010 rate of$1.9986/$1,000 Assessed Value 241,008
New Annexation Values of$0
using the 2010 rate of$1.9986/$1,000 Assessed Value 0
Increase in the State Assessed Utilities of$3,044,089
using the 2010 rate of$1.9986/$1,000 Assessed Value 6.0
Total Proposed 2011 Levy $6,171,051
A 2011 General bevy of$6,171,051 using the assessed value of $3,049,417,376 calculates to a
levy rate of$2.0237 per $1,000 of assessed value. Under this option, the 2011 levy rate would
be approximately $0.02 per$1,000 higher than the 2010 rate of$1.9986.
Option 2:
Council could choose not to assess the 1% allowed and there would be no increase from 2010 to
2011's levy except to add increased value related to new construction, annexations and the
changes in the value of State assessed utilities. This would set the levy rate at $2.0045 per
$1,000 of assessed value. The modest increase in the levy rate of $0.0059 is a fiuiction of
changes in the assessed value between 2010 and 2011. Using Option 2, the 2011 total General
Property Tax Levy would be $6,112,398. Under Option 2, the 2011 General Property Tax
"base" levy would remain unchanged at $5,865,306 compared to the $58,653 increase as
described in Option 1.
Option 3:
Beginning in 1993 and continuing through 2010, the City has preserved its accumulated taxing
capacity of$740,106 with exception of the utilization in the late 90's and of$48,661 last year.
The amount currently preserved totals $740,106. if the City was to levy all of the tax available
in Option 3 and choose to levy all the preserved levy capacity, the general levy would increase to
$6,911,157. The levy rate would calculate to $2.2664 per $1,000 of assessed value, still well
below the maximtun rate allowed per State statute of $3.60 per $1,000 of assessed value.
Selecting this option would require a "super majority" vote of the Council, or 5 affirmative
votes.
PRESERVING FUTURE LEVY CAPACITY
Preserved levy capacity, also referred to as "banked" levy capacity, is NOT money that has been
put into a bank account. It is merely dollars that have not been levied and, therefore, left in the
pockets of the taxpayers. The purpose of RC:W 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." This simply means if the tax is not needed, a City does not have to set the levy at
the maximum amount. The City can reserve that resource for future use. Preserving any unused
levy capacity requires a"super majority" vote of the Council.
A preservation ordinance has beeu prepared should any unused levy capacity be available to
preserve.
1999 UNLIMITED TAX GENERAL OBLIGATION BOND DEBT SERVICE
The 2011 debt service requirement for the 1999 UTGO Bonds issued for the purpose of the
Library Remodel and Fire Station Relocation is $65,757 and $83,293, 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 $2,638,248,230; this will result
in levy rates of approxiinately $0.0249 and $0.0316, respectively, or a combined levy rate of
$0.0565. The 2010 levy rates were $0.0269 and $0.0341, respectively, or $0.0610 combined.
The schedule of payments calls for principal payments of$100,000 each year. This will result in
decreased levy rates for the remaining payment schedule as the interest portion declines. The
final payment for these bonds occurs in December 2019,
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 2011 for the 2002 UTGO Refunding Bonds
is $377,000 and staff recommends the 2002 Unlimited General Obligation Refunding Bonds tax
levy rate be set at that dollar amount. The assessed value for properties subject to the tax is
estimated at $2,377,118;846. This equates to a levy rate of $0.1586 per $1,000 of assessed
value. This is a slightly lower rate compared to the 2010 levy rate of$0.1670, 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. The
final payment for these bonds occurs in December 2013.

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PASCO, WASHINGTON DO ORDAIN
AS FOLLOWS:
§1. The City Council of the City of Pasco (the population of which is greater than
10,000) has met and considered its budget for the calendar year 2011;
§2. The City Council of the City of Pasco after public hearing and after duly considering
all relevant evidence and testimony presented, determined that the City of Pasco requires a
regular levy in the amount of $6,112,398, which does NOT include any of the allowable
percentage increase in property tax revenues from the previous year, and does include amounts
resulting from the addition of new construction and improvements to property and any increases
in the value of state-assessed property, and amounts authorized by law as a result of any
annexations that have occurred and refunds made, in order to discharge the expected expenses
and obligations of the district.
RCW 84.55.120 requires a specific statement regarding the amount of any increase in
regular property tax from the previous year. The actual general levy amount from the previous
year (2010) was $5,865,332. The City Council of the City of Pasco hereby authorizes the
following increase in the regular property tax levy to be collected in the 2011 tax year. The
dollar amount of the increase over the actual levy amount from the previous year shall be $0
(ZERO) which is a percentage INCREASE of 0% (ZERO PERCENT) from the previous year,
This increase is exclusive cf additional revenue resulting from the addition of new construction
and improvements, newly constructed wind turbines to property, any increase in the value of
state assessed property, and any additional amounts resulting from any annexations that have
occurred and refunds made,
The property tax from new construction to be included in the actual levy is calculated to
be $241,008. This number is the result of the amount of new construction and improvements to
property of$120,591,600, provided by the Franklin County Assessor's Office, multiplied by the
2010 levy rate of $1.9986 per $1 ,000 of that value. `The property tax from increased value in
State assessed utilities is calculated to be $6,084. This number is the result of the increase in
value of State assessed utilities of $3,044,089 multiplied by the 2010 levy rate of $1.9986 per
$1,000. There was no additional amounts resulting from any annexations that have occurred or
refunds made.
§3. A tax for the following sums of money which includes new construction and
annexations to defray the expense and liabilities of the City of Pasco be and the same is hereby

AN ORDINANCE PRESERVING THE PROPERTY TAX LEVY
CAPACITY IN THE CITY OF PASCO, WASHINGTON FOR FISCAL
YEARS AFTER 2010 IN ACCORDANCE WITH STATE LAW.
WHEREAS, to provide the property tax revenues required by the general operating
budget of the City for fiscal year 2011, City Council of the City of Pasco levied property taxes
on all taxable property in the City for collection in fiscal year 2011 in the total amount of
$6,112,398, which dollar amount is the sum of(a) $5,865,332 which is the amount of property
taxes levied by the City in fiscal year 2010, plus (b) $0 of the allowable increase of the lesser of
1% or the Implicit Price Deflator (1,539%), (c) $241,008, which is the amount of additional
taxes at the 2010 levy rate of 1.9986 cents per $1,000 of assessed value resulting from the
addition of new construction and improvements to property in the City, plus (d) $0 relating to
property annexed into the City during fiscal year 2010, and (e) $6,084, which is the amount of
additional taxes at the 2010 levy rate of 1.9986 cents per $1,000 of assessed value resulting from
the increase in value of State-assessed utility 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 2011, calculated as if the City in fiscal year 2011 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 [PD (1.539%) for the previous year and limit factors of 101% or 106% and IPT) for
previous years as provided by RCW 84-55.0 101 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 2011
in a total amount of$6,911,157 (the "full amount allowed by law"), which dollar amount is the
sum of (a) $6,664,065 (the lesser of the amount calculated by multiplying the allowable 2010
property tax levy of$6,605,412 times the limit factor of 101% (the lesser of 101% or IPD or the
$3.60 per $1,000 statutory limitation), plus (b) $241,008, which is the amount of additional taxes
at the 2010 levy rate of$1.9986 cents per $1,000 of assessed value resulting from the addition of
new construction and improvements to property in the City, plus (c) $0 for property annexed into
the City during fiscal year, and (d) $6,084, which is the amount of additional taxes at the 2010
levy rate of $1.9986 cents per $1,000 of assessed value resulting from the increase in value of
State assessed utility; and
WHEREAS, the full amount allowed by law for fiscal year 2011 of $6,911,157 is
$798,759 greater than the actual property tax levy of the City for fiscal year 2011 of$6,112,398
and such excess of$798,759 represents the unused 2011 property tax levy capacity that the City
desires to preserve for future fiscal years after 2011;
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 2011, the capacity to levy property
taxes on all taxable property in the City in the amowit of 5798,759, which is equal to the unused
levy capacity of the City for fiscal year 2011. 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

A. Two thirds of the property owners adjoining North Main Avenue between
Spokane Street and Salt Lake Street have petitioned to vacate that portion of Main
Avenue abutting their property.
B. The Council set November 15, 2010 as the date to consider the vacation,
V. DISCUSSION:
A. Much of North Maim Avenue, north and south of the proposed vacation area, has
been vacated in the past. Although North Main Avenue was platted over 120
years ago most of the right-of-way has never been improved. Utilities however
have been located in the North Main right-of-way for many years. When past
segments of North Main have been vacated easements were retained for the
benefit of those utilities. In this particular vacation, easements arc again needed
for the sewer, electrical and phone lines that are located in the right-of-way,
B. In addition to retaining easements as requested by the utility providers it will be
necessary to retain a portion (30') of the north and south end of the street section
proposed for vacation for firture turn-around areas.

N ONE
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A. The two property owners adjoining the western end of Holden Street submitted a
petition to vacate all of Holden Street lying west of Main Avenue and the entire
unvacatcd portion of Front Avenue at the western end of Holden Street.
B. The City Council originally set the hearing on the proposed vacation for October
4, 2010. The hearing was continued to November 15, 2010 to allow the
petitioner's time to prepare cost estimates for road and utility modifications
necessary to accommodate the vacation.
V. DISCUSSION:
A. A majority of past street vacations in Pasco have involved unimproved right-of-
way or excess right-of=way along the margins of fully improved streets. In this
case Holden Street is fully developed. The street cannot simply be vacated and
fenced. If. Holden Street is vacated the existing street improvements will need to
be modified to ensure the street will no longer appear as a public street. The
petitioners have completed cost estimates for the necessary street modifications
and are now prepared to move forward with the proposed vacation.
R. Street modifications will include removing and replacing curb and gutter to
realign the intersection of Holden Street and Main Avenue, disconnecting and/or
relocating stormwater catch basins, street pavement and relocating a driveway.
C. The proposed street vacation has been reviewed by the City Engineering
Department and utility providers. There are several utility lines within the area
proposed for vacation. An easement is needed for the benefit of the utilities.

Municipal Code regarding Public Works Inspection and, further,

Ill. FISCAL IMPACT:
N/A
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) Some time ago, the City adopted a provision in the fee section of the Municipal
Code requiring "Development Inspection Fees" equal to 5% of construction costs.
Unfortunately, the applicability of the fees was not defined in the Code.
Additionally, as project costs increase, the fee based on a percentage of costs may
increase to unrealistic and unreasonable levels.
B) Staff believes a more reasonable basis for covering inspection costs is to assess a
minimum fee ($90) for the first hour required for inspection services and $60/hour
thereafter reflecting reasonable City costs (salary, benefits, transportation) for
inspection services.
C) The proposed ordinance, which is recommended for adoption, modifies the fee
schedule and creates a new section defining when inspection fees are required.
D) Inspection fees are imposed on public works infrastructure which will become the
maintenance responsibility of the City. Unlike building construction permits,
permits for public infrastructure do not include the cost of inspection.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) Staff recommends adoption of the attached Ordinance.

improvements; declaring the City's intention to order the
improvement of Waldemar, Cedar, II Igo and Sycamore
Avenues and Alton, Helena and Butte Streets in the Kurtzman
area and to create a Local Improvement District to assess a
portion of the cost and expense of carrying out those
improvements against the properties specially benefited
thereby; and, notifying all persons who desire to object to the
improvements to appear and present their objections at a
Bearing before the City Council to be held on December 20,
2010.
1111. FISCAL IMPACT:
TV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A. Following a public outreach effort in 2006, the City accepted the Kurtzman Paris
Action Plan in early 2007. The flan was developed as a result of neighborhood
input and established a priority system fnr neighborhood improvements including
infrastructure (sidewalks, curbs, gutters, street lights and in some cases utilities),
increased Code Enforcement efforts and an increased Police presence.
1'3. LID 146 (Reference #2) was completed this past summer for the southern portion
o1' the Kurtzman neighborhood using a combination of federal stimulus and
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) finds and owner contributions.
C. City Council has allocated $334,000 in 2011 CDBG funds as a means oil
financing a portion of the missing infrastructure in the proposed LID area. The
cost for curb, gutter, sidewalk, street lights and street paving is estimated at
$1,337,206. CDBG funds can also be used to pay assessments for lower income
residents similar to a program that is now in place for the payment of utility
LTD's. Staff intends to request CDBG funds in the 2012 allocation process for
LID assistance.
D. Sewer Extension Projcct #10-1-01 (sewer extension in Sycamore, Cedar,
Waldemar and Alton) was recently awarded by City Council and will likely be
complete Before the end of 2010.
E, Four neighborhood meetings were conducted this year (April, May, August and
October) to explore the level of neighborhood interest in an LID. Almost all
residents attending were interested in moving forward with the LID process —
with the understanding that cost estimates for individual properties would need to
be developed.
g(b)
V. DISCUSSION:
A. The infrastructure cost noted above is a preliminary estimate. Formal cost
estimates in the LID process are obtained by preparation of a preliminary
assessment roll. Most residents that attended the neighborhood meetings are
anticipating a public hearing as the first step in order to learn estimated costs and
the potential for individual CDBG assistance.
B. The bOUndaries of the actual LID are subject to change based on public interest,
engineering design of the improvements, costs and the City's success in obtaining
necessary right of way on Cedar, Hugo and Sycamore Avenues and Alton Street.
C. Neighborhood improvement in areas lacking or experiencing decay of
infrastructure is a longstanding Council goal. The use of CDBG monies for an
area-wide benefit and for LID assistance can minimize the impact of improving
neighborhood infrastructure on low income households.

1. Resolution
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECO_VLVIENDATIONS:
MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No. , accepting the work
performed by Ziegler Construction Co. under contract for the
Memorial Pool remodel.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
Incurred contract cost: $2,103,113.40
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) On August 17, 2009 the City Council awarded the contract for the Memorial Pool
remodel in the amount of$1,817,600.00 to Ziegler Construction Co. The remodel
is now complete with the final cost of the contract being $2,103,113.40 plus the
appropriate sales tax.
V. DISCUSSION
A) During the construction of the Memorial pool facility there were items that were
unknown until construction was well underway. We also made changes that were
obviously cheaper to do while under construction.
During the remodel project many on site changes were made to reduce long term
maintenance costs, reduce operating costs, improve safety and provide more area
within the fenced area of the pool. These change orders amount to $285,513.40.
This equates to an approximate 8.3% cost increase (total allotted) which is not
unusual when doing a large remodel project.
B) The large ticket items were the addition of control switches in the lifeguard area
for controlling the water on the slides and spray toys, addition of enclosed ceiling
in the entire building, pavement and drains in key locations around parking lot
and loading dock, additional plumbing and electrical to reduce maintenance time
and improve safety, and concrete work required by the new slide installation. The
area inside the fenced confines of the pool was greatly increased to allow for more
family type activities to take place while enjoying the water activities.
The total of "added work" is $285,513.40. The additional expense wrilt be
included in the 2010 budget supplement for council action in December.
C) As stated in an informational report to council earlier this year, the Memorial pool
remodel was well received by the community. Attendance was up by
approximately 10,000 and revenues were up over 400%.
D) Staff recommends acceptance of the project.
