approved plan to mix additives into the soil to reduce the amount of
water needed for outdoor watering or show that irrigation water is
available.
Motion carried unanimously.
ORDINANCE NO. 3548
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF PASCO,
WASHINGTON, REQUIRING THE INSTALLATION OF
IRRIGATION LINES INCIDENT TO THE SUBDIVISION OF
LAND IN THE CITY OF PASCO, CREATING SECTION
26.04.116 "INSTALLATION OF IRRIGATION LINES."
MOTION: Ms. Francik moved to adopt Ordinance No. 3548, creating
Section 26.04.116 "Installation of Irrigation Lines" and, further, to
authorize publication by summary only. Mr. Strode seconded the
motion.
Mr. Larsen commented that the agenda report stated that the
installation of irrigation lines incident to the subdivision of land was a
current practice and didn't understand why Council should vote on
something that was already mandatory. Mr. Larsen felt staff shouldn't
require "things" without Council approval first and staff should quit
practicing the law before the law is passed.
Mr. Crutchfield responded that the requirement for installation of
irrigation lines in conjunction with the subdivision of land is a
legislatively authorized action under the State Environmental Policy Act
of 1973. Staff is recommending an ordinance to assist those applying for
subdivision approval so they will know that it is a requirement similar to
the requirement of water and sewer lines.
Ms. Crawford expressed the concern that all those connecting to an
irrigation system should conform to the existing gate valve sizes.
Mr. Alberts stated this was an operational problem that in future will be
taken care of by staff.
Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Wayne Wilson, of 3291 Dent Road, spoke in favor of the ordinance.
ORDINANCE NO. 3549
AN ORDINANCE RELATING TO PARKING ON A
PORTION OF ROAD 44 AND A PORTION OF COMMERCIAL

PASCO MUNICIPAL CODE.
MOTION: Ms. Francik moved to adopt Ordinance No. 3549, amending
Section 10.56.080 adding parking restrictions on Commercial Avenue
and Road 44 and, further, to authorize publication by summary only.
Mr. Strode seconded the motion.
Ms. Crawford stated it was her understanding at the last workshop
meeting that an exception would be placed in the ordinance for utility
workers and their vehicles.

ORDINANCE NO, 3,550
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF PASCO,
WASHINGTON, CREATING SECTION 13.60.130 "STORM

STORM WATER PLANS AND PERMITS.
MOTION: Ms. Francik moved to adopt Ordinance No. 3550, creating
Section 13.60.130 "Storm Water Construction Permit Required" and,
further, to authorize publication by summary only. Mr. Strode seconded
the motion.
Mr. Larsen asked if he was correct in assuming that the areas that
would be required to get stormwater permits are areas 200' from the
high-water mark of the river?
Mr. Alberts stated Mr. Larsen was correct and then explained that this
ordinance would not go into effect until January 1, 2003. Everything
outside of that area is already considered permitted.
Motion carried unanimously.
ORDINANCE NO. 3551
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF PASCO,
WASHINGTON, AMENDING THE ZONING CLASSIFICATION

MOTION: Mr. Strode moved to table Ordinance No. 3551 until the
regular meeting of July 1, 2002, to allow staff to receive a preliminary
report from the consultant on the 1-182 corridor development study. Mr.
Larsen seconded the motion.
Mr. Larsen felt it was important to place in the record that Mr. Wayne
Wilson was a 25% owner of the property involved in the proposed
ordinance.
Mr. Crutchfield noted that any minority ownership interest claim is
irrelevant to the request for rezone.
Ms. Francik explained that her concern with the request for rezone is the
size of the area involved.
Mr. Wilson spoke in favor of Ordinance No. 3551 and urged Council to
go forward and adopt the ordinance.
Motion carried unanimously.

URBAN GROWTH BOUNDARY PROPOSED BY FRANKLIN
COUNTY.

expressing opposition to the East Foster Wells amendment to the Pasco
Urban Growth Boundary proposed by Franklin County. Mr. Strode
seconded the motion.

City should accept the amendment to the boundary, however, it
shouldn't be developed as residential that it should be zoned industrial.
Motion carried by the following roll call vote: Yes - Jackson, Larsen,
Strode, Francik, Garrison; No -- Kilbury, Crawford.
RESOLUTION NO. 2668
A RESOLUTION EXPRESSING OPPOSITION TO THE
DEVRIES DAIRY AMENDMENT TO THE PASCO URBAN
GROWTH BOUNDARY PROPOSED BY FRANKLIN COUNTY.
MOTION: Ms. Francik moved to approve Resolution No. 2668,
expressing opposition to the Devries Dairy amendment to the Pasco
Urban Growth Boundary proposed by Franklin County. Mr. Strode
seconded the motion.
Mr. Larsen stated it was his understanding from the last meeting that
Council would accept the amendment for Devries Dairy.
Mr. Crutchfield explained that the discussion at the last meeting focused
on the fact that the Devries Dairy is in a vicinity just east of the East
Lewis Interchange on SR-12, which has been designated for many years
in both the water and sewer comprehensive plans for long term
industrial development. The proposal to remove this property from the
boundary is instigated by the owner's desire to make improvements on
the land that the County perceives as not permitted in an urban area.
All the County needs to do is amend their zoning ordinance to permit
certain functions, as a conditional permit, and the dairy owner will be
able to accomplish their goals for their property without removing the
property from the urban growth boundary.
Motion carried unanimously.
