4/19: MOTION: I move to adopt Ordinance No. amending the Pasco
Municipal Code regarding deposits for Utility ACCnu.nt5 and,
further, to authorize publication by summary only.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
N/A
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) The City requires a deposit from new utility account customers until a satisfactory
payment record is established or, to continue, in cases where lien rights are not
available for rental properties,
B) From time to time staff has received complaints about the duration of the initial
deposit period (24 months) and that the City does not accept evidence of good
credit history from customers' prior comparable service providers.
C) The current language regarding deposits is somewhat confusing and outdated.
D) Staff has researched state law, compared. the City's practices with neighboring
communities and proposes new language to address the concerns discussed above
as per the attached draft ordinance,
Significant suggested changes include:
1. L1se of the term "deposit" as opposed to "advance billing."
2, Allowing a deposit waiver for those with proof of prior good credit history.
3. Reducing the duration for holding deposits from 24 months to 12 months.
4. Increasing the deposit amount from 2 months to 3 months [the current
requirement does not include consumption or other charges covered on the
typical utility bill including ambulance, stormwater, and (if applicable)
irrigation]. It takes approximately 80 days for the cycle to run from a missed
payment until domestic water would be shut off, therefore, 3 months
minimum bill (for water and sewer only) seems to he a reasonable deposit.
See the Utility Deposit Comparison chart for alternate deposit calculation
amounts.
4(c)
V. DISCUSSION:
A) This code provision has not been altered substantially for at least 20 years. At that
time; the city's housing stock was largely renter occupied and collections were
more difficult. Over the past decade in particular, the housing stock of the city is
much more owner occupied, representing a higher rate of collections, As the
makeup of the community has changed dramatically over the past 20 years, Pasco
has become much more the profile of other communities, though predominately of
lower incomes. Given the change in community profile, it appears appropriate to
revise the city's utility account rules accordingly.
B) Assuming irrigation billing (when applicable) is not included in the deposit
requirement, a 3-months' minimum billing would be $114.09.
C) For Council's information, 13131 charges all new accounts a $3511-year deposit
regardless of credit history. PUD rates new customers by credit history — good
credit— no deposit, poor credit—ranges from $50 to $350/1-year deposit.
D) Staff recommends adoption of the proposed ordinance.

FROM: Robert J. Albeq is Works Director Workshop Mtg.: 04/12/10

SUBJECT: Accept Utility Easements— FIFTIES, LLC
I. REFERENCE(S):
1. Vicinity Map
2. Utility Easements
a. 0.33 acre pump station easement deed
b. 40 foot temporary construction easement
c. 20 foot access and utility easement
11. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL/STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
04/12: Discussion
04/19: MOTION: I move to accept the Utility Easements from FIFTIES, LLC for
the installation of future sewer utilities and authorize the City
Manager to execute the documents,
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) The City's Capital Improvement Plan for 2010-2015 shows the East Road 40
Sewer Extension. The project includes sewer collection pipelines and a sewer
pump station east of SR12.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) Mr. Tom Kidwell representing FIFTIES, LLC has agreed to give the City
permanent easements for a sewer pump station and sewer pipelines on parcels
recorded as Tax Parcel I.D. No 113-590-026. Temporary construction easements
are also 'being granted allowing sufficient space for a contractor to build the
facilities. Acceptance of the easements and conditions would allow construction
of the pipelines and sewer pump station. The 0.33 acre easement for the sewer lift
station has a height limitation and would be transferred over to the City at time of
development as real property. The condition that permanent improvements shall
not exceed a height of(4) feet above of the adjoining road way (Kahlotus Hwy or
Commercial Ave) should not be a problem since the pump station easement is 12
feet below the roadway.
B) Fifties, LLC did incur costs for surveying and preparation of the easements. Staff
recommends that the City reimburse Fifties, LLC $3,000 for their costs,
Staff recommends acceptance of the easements from FIFTIES, LLC contingent on
the $3,000 reimbursement.

1. Proposed Resolution
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL/STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
4/12: Discussion
4/19: MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No. establishing primary
goals for the city for calendar years 2010-2011.
III. FISCAL INIPACT:
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) Over the past 20 years, City Council has conducted biennial retreats in the spring of
each even numbered year (following the municipal election in the odd number
year). The purpose of the retreat is to consider the community input along with staff
advice and develop a list of specific and measurable goals to be pursued by the city
organization over the ensuing two years.
B) The Council conducted its retreat on April 2 & 3 following Community Forums to
collect community advice on January 12, 20 and 26, and February 3. The result of
the retreat is reflected in the proposed resolution.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) Approval of the resolution will formally establish the list of goals as the primary
work plan for the organization over the ensuing two years. It will be reflected in
budget recommendations as well as day to day administrative actions, all designed
to achieve those goals before the next biennial retreat (spring 2012).
4(g)
RESOLUTION NO.
A RESOLUTION establishing primary goals of the City of Pasco for the
ensuing calendar years 2010-2011.
WHEREAS, the City of Pasco organization desires to focus the allocation of its resources
toward primary goals selected to fulfill the vision of Pasco's future, as held by its elected
representatives; and
WHEREAS, the City Council conducted Community Forums on January 12, 20 and 26.
and February 3 to elicit the concerns of residents and business owners alike about the present
condition of the city, as well as thoughts and suggestions for Pasco's future; and
WHEREAS, the city managerial staff has shared with the City Council its concerns for
the present as well as visions for the future of the Pasco community; and
WHEREAS, the City Council conducted a goal setting retreat on Saturday, April 3, 2010
to discuss all the various concerns for the present as well as visions for the future;
,AVOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PASCO,
WASHINGTON, DO RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. That the following goals shall be considered primary goals for the City of
Pasco for the ensuing two years (calendar years 2010 and 2011):
• Water Rights: water is the life blood of any community and water rights have become a
potential legal constraint for many communities around the state. While the "quad cities"
water rights pen-nit obtained several years ago provided a partial solution for Pasco's water
rights needs, it did not alleviate the need to acquirc more water rights to accommodate past as
well as future growth. Thus, the city will employ all appropriate efforts to ensure
adequate water rights are secured for the Pasco community.
• Industrial Development: the Pasco community relies on one of the lower "per capita"
assessed values (total taxable property value divided by total population) Ln the state. The
city needs to foster more industrial investment to increase the non-residential tax base and, in
turn, improve the ability of local public agencies to deliver needed services. The city has
worked diligently with its partners (Port, PUD, County, etc.) to create "development ready"
industrial sites, particularly the Heritage Industrial Center, Foster Wells area and along the
SR12 corridor, The city will partner with the Port, TRIDEC and others to actively
market the particular development opportunities offered by those industrial areas,
• Public Safety Building: the explosion of residential growth in the city over the past decade
has led to a rapid increase in city staff, necessary to sustain and improve municipal services.
The Police Department is now overcrowded and the municipal court lease at the Franklin
County Courthouse will expire in 2012; construction of a "public safety building" (to house
both functions) will solve immediate space problems and concurrently provide long-term
solutions for the balance of City Hall space needs. To that end, the city will strive to put a
funding plan in place for construction of the public safety building by 2011.
• Lewis Street Overpass: the underpass (now 70 years old) is showing signs of deterioration,
posing an eventual threat to public safety as well as potential harm to the BNRR system
extending over it, A replacement overpass has been planned, representing not only a solution
to the public safety and railroad integrity concerns, but a significant positive influence for
downtown revitalization as well; however, the project cost ($30 million) is well beyond the
city's financial capacity. Dearly $4 million of state and federal funds have been obtained for
right-of-way acquisition and preliminary design of the project. The city will work diligently
to obtain state and federal funding commitments for at least 85% of the Lewis Street
Overpass project construction cost.
• Emergency Communication: for more than 30 years, the city has relied on the Franklin
County Sheriff for emergency communication services (police and fire). The aging
communication equipment and constrained VHF radio frequencies, combined with the rapid
physical expansion of the city, present an increasingly ineffective and costly emergency
communication system for the city's emergency service personnel and citizens alike. A
qualified consultant has completed its analysis of options and the City Council will select
and complete implementation of the best option to improve the emergency
communication system for the city.
• PWRF: the Pasco Processing Center, initially created by the Port, city and PUD only 15
years ago, is already fully developed and contains more than $200 million of private
investment. Presence of the food processing plants was largely influenced by the city's
Process Water Reuse Facility (PWRF), which has proven to be a cost-effective and
environmentally responsible means of disposing of the plants' process water. Unfortunately,
the PWRF is at full capacity, so no new food processing facilities (nor expansion of existing
users) can be accommodated by the city. The city will work with the Port to determine
expansion opportunities associated with the PWRF.
• Road 68 Congestion: the extent and nature of urban growth on the plateau, combined with
the limitations imposed by the current configuration of the Road 68 interchange at 1-182,
have led to a pattern of intolerable congestion at the intersection of Road 68 and Burden
Blvd. Though the city has made numerous improvements in that vicinity to resolve the
problem, the remaining solutions affect the 1-182 interchange at Road 68 and are, therefore,
subject to approval of a resistant WSDOT. To overcome that resistance, the city will
endeavor to forge a cooperative plan with WSDOT for Road 68 congestion relief.
Primary Goals—2010-2011
Page 2
■ Sewer Plan: with the rapid expansion of the city on the Plateau and an official population
projection of 87,000 in 2027, the Franklin County Commission recently expanded the city's
Urban Growth Area (UGA) to the northwest and even further expansion is expected as time
goes by, One of the more fundamental service obligations of the city is to provide for
extension of its utility system. Sewer service, in particular, can constrain appropriate
development and become more costly than necessary if not planned carefully. Thus, the City
Council will adopt a new comprehensive sewer plan for the Pasco UGA.
• Broadmoor Development: in view of its geographic setting in the region and its ease of
access afforded by the adjacent I-182 freeway, the vacant and underutilized lands north of the
Broadmoor interchange present great potential for regional-scale development. The city, in
conjunction with affected land owners, has completed a strategic development plan to
accommodate the preferred scope of commercial development. To realize that plan, the city
will work with appropriate commercial brokers and land owners to market the
preferred development plan for private investment, with the expectation of at least one
such development commitment within two years.
■ UGA Development Standards: development within the city's boundaries must comply with
the city's urban development standards; Franklin County, responsible for managing urban
development in the unincorporated portion of the Urban Growth Area (UGA), does not apply
Pasco's standards. Consequently, portions of the UGA are being developed in a fashion
which, after eventual annexation, will require additional public (taxpayer) expenditures to
correct the urban development deficiencies being permitted now by Franklin County. The
city will make every effort to ensure that the city and County apply uniform
development standards within the UGA.
• Downtown: as have many older urban centers, the downtown business district continues to
struggle in its effort to revitalize itself The City Council believes that downtown
revitalization efforts require a new organizational structure to effectively marshal current and
emerging resources (CBC, Pasco Chamber of Commerce, Pasco Downtown Development
Association, Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and city); thus, the city will identify and
establish the most effective organizational structure for revitalization of the downtown
area.
• Gang Suppression: Pasco has managed its gang problems relatively well, but the problem
requires constant vigilance. Gang activity seems more prevalent in some other communities
throughout the mid-Columbia region; it could lead to escalation of such criminal and
nuisance activities in Pasco. To minimize the opportunity for escalation of gang activity, the
city will collaborate with other communities throughout the mid-Columbia region to
combat the gang problem.
• "A" Street Interchange: WSDOT is planning for a future interchange near east "A" Strcet
at SR12, When constructed, such an improvement is likely to have significant influence on
development opportunities and the need for municipal services. To prepare for those
changes, the city will evaluate anticipated effects of the proposed interchange on the
current urban growth boundary as well as future development and municipal service
expectations.

• Rivershore: over the past decade, the city has made notable improvements along the
shoreline, lowering the levees and widening the pathways so citizens of all ages can enjoy the
Columbia River, Yet more can be done to foster more use of the shoreline and take better
advantage of the unique assets represented by the river. To that end, the city will update the
"master plan" for rivershore improvement and commence implementation of its
recommendations.
• Regional Centers: each of the Tri-Cities (Kennewick, Richland and Pasco) has created its
own Public Facilities District (authorized to develop and operate "regional centers," such as
convention centers, stadiums, performing arts centers, etc.); however, none of the Public
Facilities Districts possesses the financial capacity to individually finance the scale or variety
of regional facilities which would improve the quality of lice within the region. It is the
express intent that Pasco continue to work collaboratively with its neighboring cities to
jointly plan for the development of"regional centers."
Section 2. The City Manager is hereby directed and authorized to formulate appropriate
implementation strategies to achieve the goals set forth hereinabove, consistent with
appropriation policies and procedures.
PASSED by the City Council of the City of Pasco at a regular meeting this day-of
