stormwater and ambulance utility rates effective February 1, 2014
and adjusting the water utility rate effective January 1, 2015 and,
further, authorize publication by summary only.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
Water Utility, Sewer Utility, Stormwater Utility, Ambulance Fund, Utility Tax
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) Each utility is analyzed annually and projections made for a 5 year planning window.
This 2014 -2018 Utility Rate Plan contemplates operating needs, construction impacts
(as approved by the 2014 -2019 Capital Improvement Plan) and the impacts of current
and future debt issuances. By using a five year planning window, rate impacts can be
managed. The current goal is to contain rate increases to no more often than every
two years.
B) WATER. The last water rate increase was authorized in 2010; four years ago and in
conjunction with the issuance of new debt. The next debt issuance is planned for
2015. To lower costs and keep rates down, the utility has used its reserves to fund
construction costs and delay additional debt. The 2014 -2018 Utility Rate Plan for
water calls for a 30% increase in base fees ($3.75 /month for residential, from $12.50
to $16.25) and a 5% increase in water consumption rate (from $0.65 to $0.68 per 100
Cubic Ft.) in 2014. Effective January 1, 2015, there will be no increase in the base
rates but a 3% increase in consumption rates (from $0.68 to $0.70 per 100 Cubic Ft.).
The 2015 increase is necessary to restore operating reserve balances to preserve the
utility's credit rating. There are 221 accounts receiving the Low Income Sr. Discount
of 67% (i.e. the reduced rate is 1/3 the regular base fee) so this base fee would
increase $1.23 per month from $4.17 to $5.40 in 2014.
C) SEWER. The last sewer increase took place in 2004; ten years ago. In 2013, the
sewer utility received $2.4 million in bond proceeds for construction projects and
maintained the reserve balances. In conjunction with the water utility, the next debt
issuance is planned for 2015 to provide funding for capital projects as listed in the
2014 -2019 Capital Improvement Plan and the 20 Year Sewer Master Plan. There is
no rate increase planned for 2014 or 2015.
S(a)
D) STORMWATER. The last stormwater increase took place in 2012. This utility
currently has no debt and renews its system using rates revenues. The 2014 -2018
Utility Rate Plan calls for a 13% increase in base fees ($0.50 /month for residential,
$3.90 to $4.40) in 2014.
E) IRRIGATION. The last irrigation increase took place in 2011. This utility currently
has no debt and renews its system using rates revenues. Continued growth in the
number of customers has been sufficient to offset increasing costs of doing business.
There is no rate increase planned for 2014 or 2015.
F) AMBULANCE. The last ambulance rate increase took place in 2013. The utility
currently has no debt but faces on -going revenue challenges to keep pace with
operating increases. The 2014 -2018 Utility Rate Plan calls for a 24% increase in base
fees ($1.50 /month for residential, $6.25 to $7.75) in 2014.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) WATER.
1) Included in the analysis is the impact of several new programs. The first program
is the Fire Hydrant Flushing program. This program provides resources to carry
out a preventative maintenance program to flush, service, repair and test the fire
hydrants city wide to better ensure they are properly working and available in an
emergency. The second program, the Hydrant Addition program provides
resources to add fire hydrants west of 20 Avenue where sufficient fire protection
should be improved. The third program is the Water Meter Relocation program.
This program increases efforts to move existing water meter /services from
troublesome areas (in parking strips, secured areas, etc.) to readily accessible and
serviceable locations. The total impact of these new programs is about $412,000
per year.
2) There is an additional impact of approximately $590,000 per year that includes a
2% increase in the O &M on -going costs ($90,000); increases in state and city
utility taxes ($156,000), increases in interfimd administrative charges ($144,000)
and a contribution to replenish reserves ($305,000) over the next several years
required to maintain the utility's credit rating.
B) SEWER.
1) Sewer rates are impacted by the new Department of Ecology requirement that the
City take on the responsibility of pre - treatment permit process. The impact of the
new requirement is estimated at $216,000 per year. There is an additional impact
of approximately $200,000 per year that includes a contribution to replenish
reserves over the next several years required to maintain the utility's credit rating.
2) Continued growth in the customer base has allowed these costs to be absorbed
without a 2014 rate increase.
C) STORMWATER.
1) Included in the analysis are the impacts of additional maintenance programs and
the addition of a 0.5FTE (re- assigned from the Street Division) devoted to street
sweeping. A new Retro -Fit program ($60,000) has been added along with a new
Recondition Storm Drain Pipes ($25,000 in 2014 increasing to $50,000 in 2015).
These programs were added to meet Department of Ecology permitting
requirements. A $0.50 increase in 2015 may be necessary to cover 2014 service
levels. As an alternative to the 2015 rate increase, Council might decrease the
sweeping frequency.
D) IRRIGATION.
1) Continued growth in the number of customers has been sufficient to offset
increasing costs of doing business which means no rate increase is required.
Reserves remain adequate.
E) AMBULANCE.
1) Ambulance rate increases are driven by continued increases in costs and
continued state and federal caps on medical reimbursements. Personnel costs
represent 72% of all operating costs. The settlement of the union contract resulted
in an operating cost increase of approximately $86,000 per year. The balance of
revenue generated by the proposed increase will reduce the General Fund subsidy
to the previous $420,000 level. The 2015 rate increase and ambulance rate model
will be discussed in detail later this year.

II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
1/13: Discussion
1/21: MOTION: I move to approve Ordinance No. _ relating to Local Improvement
District No. 148 fixing the amount, form, date, interest rate and
maturity of the Local Improvement District No. 148 installment
note; providing for the purchase of such notes by the city from funds
on deposit in the Boulevard Maintenance fund and fixing the interest
rate on Local Improvement District No. 148 assessment installments.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) LID 148 was formed by Ordinance No. 3988 on January 18, 2011.
B) LID 148 included improvements to Sycamore, Hugo, Waldemar and Cedar Avenues
from Butte Street to Alton Street and Helena Street 150 feet west of Sycamore Ave
to Cedar Avenue and on Alton Street from Hugo Avenue to 200 feet east of
Waldemar Avenue. Improvements included street widening, curb, gutter, sidewalks,
storm drainage, and street lighting.
C) Construction work is now complete. The final assessment roll for LID 148 was
approved by Ordinance No. 4125 on November 4, 2013 for $258,734.48.
D) 30 day interest free letters were mailed on November 27, 2013. With the December
1st publication notice, the 30 day interest free period expires on December 31, 2014.
E) Due to the cost of debt issuance and the size of the debt issuance, the city has opted
to fund Local Improvement District No. 148 internally with a ten year instalhent
note rather than issuing an external bond and set the assessment collections for the
same ten year term.
F) The collections of pre - payments as of December 31, 2013 for Local Improvement
District No. 148 is $34,100.80 and the amount to be funded by the LID Assistance
grant is $46,369.36 leaving a balance of $177,964.32 to be funded by the installment
note.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) The interest on the installment note is set at the rate quoted by Piper Jaffray & Co.
for this type of debt of 4.0 %.
B) The interest on the assessments includes a 0.5% administrative and processing fee
for a total rate of 4.5 %.
C) Staff recommends the approval of the issuance and purchase of the installment note
and setting of the interest rates for the note and assessments.

January 8, 2014
Workshop Mtg.: 01/13/14
Regular Mtg.: 01/21/14
H. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
01/13: Discussion
01/21: MOTION: I move to adopt Ordinance No. , revising the Temporary
Employee Wage Plan for calendar year 2014 and, further, authorize
publication by summary only.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
• Approximately $4,000 annually
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) The state minimum wage is recalculated each year in September as required by voter
approved Initiative 688, which was passed in 1998. The law requires that the state
minimum wage be adjusted each year according to the change in the US City Average
CPI for urban wage earners and clerical workers (CPI -W) during the 12 months
ending each August 31. Washington's minimum wage increased to $9.32 per hour as
of January 1, 2014 (from $9.19, the 2013 state minimum wage).
V. DISCUSSION:
A) The proposed 2014 wage scale reflects the entry level step and grade wage rate as
the state minimum wage requirement. Entry level rates for all grades were
adjusted upward (modestly) to maintain adequate separation between
classifications. Maximum step rates increased only slightly within the new scale
structure; increases are between $0.13/hour to $0.18/hour.
B) Staff recommends Council approval.

making the city eligible for federal HOME funds. The populations of the individual cities
alone do not meet the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
minimum. By joining together in a consortium, funds are available to the three cities.
B. In June 2013, Amendment #1 was approved to incorporate an automatic renewal clause into
the HOME consortium agreement. The renewal clause requires the City of Richland as lead
representative for the consortium to notify participating jurisdictions of their opportunity to
not participate in each subsequent three -year period.
C. In June 2013, with aforementioned revisions to the agreement, Richland expressed their
willingness to continue as lead representative to the consortium, and the agreement was
renewed for the next three -year period (2014- 2016).
A. In December 2013, the City of Richland executed the grant agreement to receive 2013 funds
on contingent upon all three member cities agreement to reduce the administrative burden
and refrain from conducting activities other than down payment assistance.
B. Amendment 2 to the Cooperative Agreement revises Section 4 to define annual activities to
be performed by the member cities under this agreement as follows: 10% Administration,
15% Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO), and 75% to down payment
assistance and/or qualified CHDO project. No funds will be allocated for rehabilitation or
new construction projects.
C. HUD regulations and interpretations have evolved over the past several years. The HOME
Final Rule was revised in 2012, and again in 2013, increasing administrative responsibility at
the same time shortening deadlines for compliance and reducing funding. The HOME
Consortium is reluctant to use HOME funds to engage in construction rehabilitation and
infill activities with the increased risk for non - compliance.

Regular Mtg.: 1/21/14
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
1/21: MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No. , authorizing an interfund
loan to the Economic Development Fund.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
See below
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) City Council authorized purchase of a 28 -acre site on Sandifur Parkway in
conjunction with Columbia Basin LLC. The purchase is scheduled to close before
the end of January.
B) The Economic Development Fund will own the property but does not have
sufficient cash balance to fund the purchase obligation ($1.4 million). The
Government Equipment Replacement Fund contains sufficient cash balance to
provide a short-term loan to the Economic Development Fund to facilitate the
purchase. It is anticipated that the Economic Development Fund repay the short-
term loan over a three -year period.
C) An interfund loan is required to be memorialized by resolution of the City
Council.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) The proposed resolution authorizes a three -year loan at a 2% interest rate and
allows prepayment without penalty (should the Economic Development Fund be
able to do so earlier). The interest rate reflects the current marketplace for the
Economic Development Fund obligation and is more than the nominal rate of
interest being earned by the Government Equipment Replacement Fund; thus,
both funds benefit from the transaction.
B) Staff recommends Council approval of the interfund and resolution.

RE: Funding Request
Dear Council Members
403 W. Lewis St., Suite A
P.O. Box 688
Pasco, WA 99301
(509) 546 -1304
www.downtownpasco.com
In December of 2010, the City determined that the creation of an independent public development authority to
undertake specific activities and projects in Downtown Pasco is the best means to accomplish the City's management
and revitalization goals. As a result, the Downtown Pasco Development Authority (DPDA) was formed by the Pasco City
Council.
With two full years of groundwork under our feet, the DPDA feels that the development of a multi -year strategic task
plan is the next step in the revitalization process. The planning process is expected to identify and prioritize
fundamental tasks for our manager and board to successfully revitalize Downtown Pasco.
We have identified a preliminary scope of work with a company specializing in economic and development activities to
help in this effort. We expect the end product to include a prioritized list of measures the DPDA must take for
revitalization; development of a Downtown Pasco unique brand and development of a website that incorporates the
Pasco Farmers Market, Pasco Specialty Kitchen and Downtown Development Authority into one contemporary and
functional website location.
The DPDA respectfully asks that City Council favorably consider funding the expected cost of this proposed task plan,
recognizing that it is necessary to create a path for the Board of the DPDA to move forward with its fundamental task of
making Downtown Pasco stronger.
Thank you in advance for your consideration.
Michael Miller
President, DPDA
Ourmission is to strengthen and develop Downtown Pasco as a center for culture, business, and community spirit.

AGENDA REPORT NO. 17
FOR: City Council January 15, 2014
TO: Gary Crutchfiel , i anager
FROM: Ahmad Qayou i, Public Works Director _
Regular Mtg.: 1/21/2014
SUBJECT: Oregon Avenue Corridor PSA Amendment No. 1
I. REFERENCE(S):
1. Amendment No. 1 to Professional Services Agreement
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
1/21: MOTION: I move to approve Amendment No. 1 to Professional Services
Agreement with CH2MHill, continuing professional services with
respect to the Oregon Avenue Corridor, in the amount of $25,829
and further, authorize the Mayor to sign the agreement.
HI. FISCAL IMPACT:
LID, Local and STP Funds
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) The City of Pasco is planning to widen the existing four -lane roadway to provide a
five -lane section that offers a center two way left turn lane to accommodate turning
movements. The City anticipates that vacant properties along the corridor will be
developed to host additional industrial businesses in the foreseeable future and seeks
to design the corridor improvements in a manner that safely and efficiently facilitates
track and employee movements. The purpose of this effort is to develop a 20 -year
plan for corridor study area. This plan will serve as a basis for identifying existing
and future turn lane needs (length of storage, etc.), anticipated future traffic signal
locations, and access management standards for the corridor.
B) On November 19, 2012 City Council awarded a professional services agreement to
CH2MHill in the amount of $350,000 to complete design of the Oregon Ave Corridor
in accordance to agreed scope and fees.
C) The project design work has started and to date, part of the NEPA process and 60%
of design work is complete.
D) The City has allocated $427,000 in ST? (federal) funds that will be used for design
and project management.
E) FHWA and WSDOT have advised that additional technical analysis are required to
meet federal funding requirements.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) During the design process and preparation of the environmental documents for
FHWA and WSDOT approval, standards changed and FHWA now requires all
federally funded projects to complete a noise study. CH2MHill has completed a
scope and fee for the noise study and is requesting to amend their contract in the
amount of $14, 229.59 to complete the task.
B) A goal of the roadway design is to infiltrate all existing storm water runoff and added
runoff created from the projected pavement widening. The consultant completed a
geotechnical investigation and report. The report indicates very low infiltration rates,
especially for areas south of "A" Street. The low rates would require high costs and
infrastructure to accommodate flows. Therefore, it needs to be reevaluated. Staff
believes that we will have better infiltration rates at depths greater than 8 feet. To
verify the higher infiltration rates and to meet WSDOT approval, a supplemental
geotechnical investigation needs to be completed. The consultant has submitted a
scope and fee in the amount of $11,529.17 to complete the task.
C) Staff has reviewed the scope and fees and recommends approval of the amendment.

Geotechnical Investigations
EXHIBIT A -1: SCOPE OF WORK
INTRODUCTION
This Supplemental Agreement No. 1 scope of work modifies the scope of CH2M HILL's
(CONSULTANT) professional engineering services and compensation for Environmental
Documentation and Permitting efforts, authorized under Task 5 or the original agreement (dated
11/26/2012) to include additional services associated with developing a traffic Noise Study Report
in accordance with 23 C.F.R. § 772 and the WSDOT Noise Manual. The scope of work also
includes additional geotechnical field investigations, laboratory, and analysis to further investigate
feasibility for stormwater infiltration on Oregon Avenue, between 'A' Street and Ainsworth Avenue.
The noise study and report will be accomplished in the winter of 2013/2014 to support a NEPA
decision anticipated In spring /summer of 2014.
The CONSULTANT will provide the following services:
TASK 5: ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION AND PERMITTING
5.1.5 Traffic Noise Study and Report (New Subtask)
The CONSULTANT will perform a traffic noise study and prepare a Traffic Noise Study
Report to detail the findings of the traffic noise analysis. The required documentation
contained in the Traffic Noise Study Report is found in 23 C.F.R. § 772 and the WSDOT
Noise Manual. The WSDOT Noise Manual is the prime document to be followed in
development of the traffic noise study and report.
A site visit of the project study area will be conducted to identify land uses and locate noise
sensitive locations within project area. Physical features that affect noise propagation and
features that may be altered during construction will be noted. Noise measurements will
be conducted at up to four locations to validate the traffic noise model. The measurements
will be conducted for a single 15- minute sampling period at each location during free -flow
traffic conditions. At each measurement site, traffic counts will be collected concurrently
with the noise measurements. A Type I sound level meter will be used. Noise sources will
Supplement #1, Exhibit A -1: Scope of Work
Revised. 111412014 Page 1 of 4 CiH2MHtLL
be noted. Traffic volumes counted during the noise measurement survey will be modeled
using FHWA Traffic Noise Model (TNM) Version 2.5 and the resulting sound levels will be
compared with the measured sound levels to validate the model.
TNM 2.5 will be used to model three noise levels: existing, future no- build, and future build
for a single alternative. Up to 20 noise - sensitive receptors will be identified. The receptors
will exhibit land use characteristics similar to their surrounding area. Receptors will be
located close to the proposed improvements.
Design year (2030) noise levels will be compared to noise- abatement criteria to determine
if the design year noise levels approach or exceed criteria thresholds. Design year noise
levels will also be compared to existing noise levels to determine if the projected noise
levels are "substantially higher" per WSDOT's criteria and therefore an impact. At locations
predicted to experience impacts, potential noise - abatement measures will be discussed
qualitatively. A quantitative noise barrier analysis will not be performed. If a quantitative
barrier analysis is determined to be necessary, it would only be conducted after approval
of an amendment to the scope of services and budget.
Subtask 5.1.5 Assumptions:
• No meetings are planned or included.
• The CITY will obtain right of entry agreements prior to performing any work outside
of the street right -of -way and provide permits required to performing work within the
street right -of -way.
Subtask 5 Deliverables:
+ Draft and final Traffic Noise Study Report; final will be attached to the ECS
TASK 7. SUPPLEMENTAL GEOTECHNICAL EXPLORATION
The CONSULTANT will conduct field explorations and geotechnical analyses to supplement
engineering design of three potential stormwater infiltration basins between 'A' Street and
Ainsworth Street.
7.1. Field Explorations and Laboratory Testing
The work includes drilling and logging of test pits and /or borings, and laboratory testing to
characterize and verify subsurface conditions for design of stormwater infiltration facilities.
The CONSULTANT will work with the CITY who in turn will have CITY forces, field delineate
proposed boring and test pit locations. The CONSULTANT will make calls to One -Call for
locating utilities.
• All drilling and test pit excavation will occur within 1 working day, at locations that
coincide with borings B13, B14, and B15 from the original 2013 field exploration (all
south of'A' Street)
Supplement #1, Exhibit A -1: Scope of Work
Revised: 111412014 Page 2 of 4 C*42MHILL
• Boring depths are anticipated to be between 15 and 25 ft.
• Field testing will include SPT and infiltration tests within the boreholes. Equipment and
labor to locate the test borings, drill the borings, and restore the site upon completion
will be provided. It is assumed that no groundwater monitoring standpipes will be
installed.
• CONSULTANT will be responsible for utility checks and vehicular traffic control during
drilling operations. A traffic plan and flaggers are not included as work is being
conducted off the existing roadway.
• A backhoe and operator will be provided by the CITY, to excavate and backfill test pits
for a period of up to 4 hours at selected locations, to determine soil types and to
perform percolation tests at the locations of the proposed stormwater infiltration
facilities. Test pits will be excavated, percolation measurements collected, and pit
backfilled within the work period.
• For planning purposes, it is assumed that CONSULTANT will perform percolation tests
at nine locations, either In bore holes or test pits. CITY will provide water for the field
percolation tests.
A geotechnical engineer or engineering geologist will be provided during test borings and pit
excavations to:
• Visually classify soils and rock according to ASTM methods
• Record drilling and test pit observations, including blow counts during SPTs on logs
• Collect soil samples for laboratory analysis and classification
The boring and test pit logs will include observations made by drilling crews during drilling.
Depths at which groundwater is encountered also will be recorded. Test borings will be
restored to grade to match the existing conditions.
Laboratory tests will be conducted on selected soil samples to determine gradation and
moisture content of site soils, and confirm engineering classification. For this scope of work,
it is assumed that the laboratory testing program will consist of up to eight moisture contents,
eight sieves, and two hydrometer tests.
7.2. Geotechnical Report Addendum
CONSULTANT will prepare an Addendum to the Geotechnical Report, summarizing the field
exploration, laboratory testing, and supplemental geotechnical recommendations for design
of the infiltration facilities south of 'A' Street. The report will present:
• A summary of field exploration methods, results, and interpretations, including boring
and test pit logs, descriptions of soil conditions, and water levels encountered during
drilling.
• A summary of laboratory testing methods, data, and tabulated results.
• Geotechnical design recommendations for stormwater infiltration facilities.
Supplement #1, Exhibit A -1: Scope of Work eJ�
Revised: 111412014 Page 3 of 4 CH2MHILL
Quality Assurance /Quality Control (QA/QC) reviews for the geotechnical engineering aspects
of the project will be performed.
Task 7.2 Assumptions:
+ The CITY will obtain right of entry agreements prior to performing any work outside
of the street right -of -way and provide permits required to performing work within the
street right -of -way.
+ The CITY will field delineate proposed exploration locations for utility locating
purposes.
+ The CITY will furnish a backhoe and operator for up to four hours. CITY will furnish
a water truck and operator for up to eight hours.
+ In soils, foundation, groundwater, and other subsurface investigations, the actual
characteristics may vary significantly between successive test points and sample
intervals and at locations other than where observations, exploration, and
investigations have been made. Because of the inherent uncertainties in subsurface
evaluations, changed or unanticipated underground conditions may occur that could
affect total PROJECT cost and /or execution. These conditions and costlexecution
effects are not the responsibility of CONSULTANT.
Task 7.2 Deliverables:
+ Draft Addendum, which will be finalized and incorporated into the Geotechnical
