REFERENCE(S): Hanford Communities - Proposed Interlocal Agreement II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL /STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: 4/28: Discussion 5/5: MOTION: I move to approve the Hanford Communities Interlocal Agreement and, further, authorize the Mayor to sign the Agreement. III. FISCAL IMPACT: Approximately $17,500 annually. IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: A) The Cities of Pasco, Kennewick, Richland and West Richland, along with Benton County, have operated what is known as the Hanford Communities organization for the past 20 years. The purpose of the organization is to provide a forum for local government monitoring of activities at the Hanford site as they might affect a wide variety of community issues (emergency services, economy, health and safety, etc.). Through the interlocal and operating contract, the entities employ the services of an individual specifically assigned to monitor Hanford activities and brief the member representatives on a continuing basis. The effort has proven quite valuable to the member jurisdictions in terms of being cognizant of site activities and their anticipated effects on the community, likewise, that awareness has permitted the local jurisdictions to exert greater influence on Hanford site activities than the cities were able to prior to that time. V. DISCUSSION: A) The annual budget for this program is about $150,000 but an Ecology grant covers about $30,000 and Richland (which houses the employee) absorbs 40% of the remainder and share the 60% balance with the other cities and counties. That 60% is shared on the basis of official population each year, as many other regional agreements do. Pasco's share of costs for 2014 is $17,287. B) The ability to monitor Hanford site activities and the improved ability to influence those activities are well worth the relatively modest expense (assigning one -half FTE would cost much more). The organization functions well and has proven to be effective; thus, staff recommends the agreement be extended for another five - year term. 3(c) AN INTERLOCAL COOPERATION AGREEMENT BETWEEN ELIGIBLE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO REVIEW, EVALUATE, AND MONITOR CONDITIONS AND OPERATIONS AT THE HANFORD NUCLEAR RESERVATION ( HANFORD) THAT DIRECTLY AFFECT THESE " HANFORD COMMUNITIES" This INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT, effective the 1st day of January, 2015, is hereby entered into by and between the City of Richland, City of Kennewick, City of Pasco, City of West Richland, and the Counties of Benton and Franklin (hereinafter referred to as 'Participating Jurisdictions ").

ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: 515: MOTION: I move to adopt Ordinance No. , amending Chapter 14.12; amending Section 13.76.040; repealing Section 13.36.050 and amending Chapter 3.07 of the Pasco Municipal Code regarding Latecomer's Agreements and, further, authorize publication by summary only. III. FISCAL IMPACT: N/A IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: NOTE: Since the workshop meeting of 4128114, the City Attorney has made some minor changes to the proposed ordinance to streamline and clarify. Changes are: 1. The addition of a new subsection 2 under 14.12.020 Definitions — "Latecomer Fee" (H) (page 3). This adds a case for property with access to street improvement covered by a latecomer agreement. 2. Section 14.12.030 Application for Development Reimbursement Agreement — has been revised to make the application process more similar for both streets and utilities and to reduce redundancy. A) The City developed and codified Chapter 14.12 of the PMC regarding street and utilities assessment reimbursement agreements or "Latecomer Agreements" in 2004, based upon then applicable state law. In 2013, the state legislature made several changes to RCW 35.91 dealing with utility agreements, which changes are effective July 1, 2014. Staff and the City Attorney have worked over the last several months to prepare revisions to PMC Chapter 14.12 to incorporate the new changes and to refine the City's process for review, approval and administration of the latecomer process, in conformance with the statute. B) To eliminate other inconsistencies in the Code, Section 13.36.040 regarding line extensions, is proposed for amendment and Section 13.36.050, regarding installation costs, is proposed for repeal. C) Administrative fees as well as engineering review costs associated with latecomer's agreements are also incorporated in Chapter 3.07 as part of the ordinance. V. DISCUSSION: A) The attached, proposed ordinance has been completed with strikeout and underline format to enable Council to see the numerous changes proposed. Following Council review and discussion of any questions, staff recommends approval of the ordinance. • z u J ORDINANCE NO.

MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No. , providing for the replacement of nonconforming I -182 Overlay District fences. III. FISCAL IMPACT: See Below. IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: A) In 2011, the city organized an Estate Fence Committee and held public meetings to make recommendations for alternatives to the failed "Surewood" fence material. The material was becoming brittle and easy to break and due to the inferior product it is no longer manufactured. Several types of fence materials were considered and it was determined that cedar would be the best due to its strength, the ability to power wash to remove graffiti and the ability to re -stain to maintain a consistent appearance. B) In 2012, Council approved an Ordinance & Resolution requiring the replacement of the "Surewood" fencing material along Road 100 and Road 84 with the cedar material. That replacement effort has been largely accomplished, resulting in the desired outcome. V. DISCUSSION: A) The section of fence along I -182, which is highly visible from the interstate, is in poor condition. This appearance is substandard and harms the perception and value of the community. Several neighborhood meetings were held to discuss the condition of the fence with little turn out. However, most who did attend favored replacing the fence with assistance from the city similar to the Road 100 and Road 84 experience. B) Staff is recommending the same method that was used along Road 100 and Road 84 where the city removed and disposed of the old "Surewood" and installed the new cedar material. Residents would be responsible for the cost of the new cedar fencing material and have the choice of a one -time payment or 12 monthly installments to the city. The price per foot for this fence project is $5.00, the same 8(b) as it was for the fence along Road 100 and Road 84. Lots in this area range from 20 feet at a cost of $100 to 163 feet at a cost of $815. Current staff and/or volunteers can complete the project at no additional cost to the city or residents. In order to accomplish the replacement, however, the city's ordinance for fencing standards must be amended first. C) Staff recommends approval of the proposed ordinance and resolution. ORDINANCE NO. AN ORDINANCE of the City of Pasco, Washington, Amending Section 25.75.050 "Design Standards" to Provide for Uniform Fencing Standards in the I -182 Corridor WHEREAS, the City has pursuant to PMC 25.58.020 identified the I -182 Overlay District as significant to the well -being and image of the City requiring additional development regulations to create an aesthetically attractive area within the City, including its visual appearance from the I -182 freeway; and WHEREAS, the visual attractiveness of this area contributes to the economic and residential value of this area; and WHEREAS, the residential areas within this Corridor adjacent to the freeway have installed estate fences known as "Surewood" fences; and WHEREAS, the City has found such fences have experienced rapid deterioration, including slats that are easily broken or removed with a very light impact, as well as susceptible to stains, discoloration, and the difficult removal of graffiti, and is no longer available in the market for replacement of damaged or destroyed slats; and WHEREAS, the City has previously organized an Estate Fence Committee to make recommendations for alternatives to the failed fencing material and, having conducted public hearings in this regard, has declared such fences nuisances and nonconforming to the purposes for which they were intended; and WHEREAS, it is recognized by the City Council that those fences within the I -182 Overlay Corridor represent a public interest in maintaining aesthetic attractiveness for this district.

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION: Legal: Parcel #118 -112 -036: Lot 1, Short Plat 2005 -11 General Location: 9915 West Argent Road Property Size: The parcel is approximately 1.65 acres 2. ACCESS: The site is accessed from Argent Road. 3. UTILITIES: All municipal utilities currently serve the site. 4. LAND USE AND ZONING: The site is currently zoned RS -12 (Suburban) and contains a church. Surrounding properties are zoned and developed as follows: NORTH: RS -12 - Vacant SOUTH: RS -20 - Single - Family Residences EAST: RS-12- Vacant WEST: RS -12 - Single - Family Residences 5. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates the site for low- density residential uses. Goal OF -2 suggests the City ought to maintain land use flexibility in regard to placement of infrastructure for public and private utilities. Policy OF -2 -A encourages the sound management of all energy and communication utilities through coordination and cooperation dealing with construction of such facilities. Policy OF -2 -B encourages the placement of utility substations which are necessary for the surrounding neighborhood. 6. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The City of Pasco is the lead agency for this project. Based on the SEPA checklist, the adopted City Comprehensive Plan, City development regulations, and other information, a threshold determination resulting in a Determination of Non - Significance (DNS) has been issued for this project under WAC 197- 11 -158. 1 ANALYSIS AT8TT Wireless is requesting special permit approval to locate cellular wireless communication facilities at the Desert Springs Covenant Church located on the northeast corner at the intersection of Road 100 and Argent Road. The proposal involves the addition of an architectural feature on the roof of the existing church to house cellular antennae together with a ground -level equipment enclosure. The applicant's request is an effort to fill a coverage/ capacity gap west of Road 68. The installation is intended to better support existing users west of Road 68 and would also potentially increase AT&T's ability to support more users in the same area. As illustrated in the elevations submitted with the application (Exhibits 1 -3), the applicant wishes to install wireless communication network antennae atop an existing church. The antennae will be housed within an architecturally integrated rooftop feature extending fifteen (15) feet above the existing roofline; for an overall structure height of 55.4 feet above grade. The proposed wireless communication antenna meets the requirements listed under the provisions of PMC 25.70.075, which require wireless facilities to be located on an existing structure taller than thirty-five (35) feet. Wireless Facility zoning regulations were specifically developed to permit (through special permit review) cellular tower /antenna equipment on taller buildings within the community. The PMC special permit review criteria for wireless facilities are written as follows: 25.70.075 WIRELESS COMMUNICATION FACILITIES. Wireless Communication Facilities are permitted under the following conditions: (1) Such structures shall be permitted in all industrial or C -3 zoning districts provided the location is 500 feet or more from a residential district. Any location closer than 500 feet requires special permit approval. (2) Such structures may be permitted by special permit in all other zoning districts provided said structures are: (a) Attached to or located on an existing or proposed building or structure that is higher than thirty five (35) feet; or (b) Located on or with a publicly owned facility such as a water reservoir, fire station, police station, school, county or port facility. (3) All wireless communication facilities shall comply with the following standards 2 (a) Wireless facilities shall be screened or camouflaged by employing the best available technology. This may be accomplished by use of compatible materials, strategic location, color, stealth technologies, and /or other measures to achieve minimum visibility of the facility when viewed from public rights -of -way, and adjoining properties such that a casual observer cannot identify the Wireless Communication Facility. (b) Wireless facilities shall be located in the City in the following order of preference: i) Attached to or located on buildings or structures higher than 35 feet. ii) Located on or with a publicly owned facility iii) Located on a site other than those listed in a) or b). Commonly, cellular providers locate the equipment cabinets within a fenced area surrounding the base of a pole; in this case the ground -level equipment is proposed to be housed in a metal shelter designed for functionality. Renditions submitted with the application show no fence is proposed around the metal equipment shelter. Staff has entered a condition ( #7) requiring the equipment enclosure be screened from view from surrounding roadways. The screening must meet design requirements of the I -182 Overlay District (PMC 25.58). A determination of non - significance from TOWAIR for the FAA has been obtained by the applicant; as required by PMC 25.70.075(4) a copy has been included in the application submittal. 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. The Planning Commission may add additional findings to this listing as the result of factual testimony and evidence submitted during the open record hearing. 1. The site is zoned RS -12 (Suburban). 2. The Comprehensive Plan identifies the site for low- density residential uses. 3. The site is approximately 1.65 acres in area. 4. The site contains a church approximately 9,200 square feet in area. 5. All municipal utilities currently serve the site. 3 6. In the RS -12 zone cellular towers may be permitted by special permit provided the tower is either: i) Attached to or located on an existing or proposed building or structure that is higher than thirty -five (35) feet; or ii) Located on or with a publicly owned facility such as a water reservoir, fire station, police station, school, county or port facility. 7. The cellular antennae will be mounted on top of an existing church which is 40.4 feet in height. 8. Addition of the antennae housing appurtenance will increase the height of the church by fifteen (15) feet for an overall height of 55.4 feet. 9. Equipment serving the proposed antennae will be located within a 275 square foot ground -level equipment enclosure approximately 11.5 feet in height. 10. The Comprehensive Plan suggests the City ought to maintain land use flexibility with regard to placement of infrastructure for public and private utilities. 11. The Comprehensive Plan does not specifically address cellular equipment. 12. Cellular equipment creates minimal demands on City infrastructure. CONCLUSIONS BASED ON STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT Before recommending approval or denial of a special permit the Planning Commission must develop findings of fact from which to draw its conclusions based upon the criteria listed in PMC 25.86.060. The criteria are as follows: (1) Will the proposed use be in accordance with the goals, policies, objectives and text of the Comprehensive Plan? The Comprehensive Plan does not specifically address cellular equipment. The Comprehensive Plan goal OF -2 and policy OF -2 -A discuss the need for sound management and coordination in the location of utilities and community facilities. Policy ED -1 -C promotes the need to support Pasco's urban area as a good business environment by enhancing the infrastructure of the community. The applicability of policy ED -1 -C is enhanced due to the fact that the new tower will provide more /better service primarily to commercially zoned properties. Policy UT -1 -C encourages coordination of utility providers' functional plans with the City's land use and utility plans to ensure long term service availability. 12 (2) Will the proposed use adversely affect public infrastructure? The proposed use is a part of the communication network utilized by the general public. The proposed equipment will be located in such a manner so as not to impact other public utilities or services. The proposed use does not require water and sewer. (3) Will the proposed use be constructed, maintained and operated to be in harmony with existing or intended character of the general vicinity? The character of the vicinity is dominated by residential suburban development. The addition of roof -top cellular antennae, as marked through architecturally consistent features, will not alter or affect the existing or intended character of the surrounding neighborhood. (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 proposed antennae housing will be located on top of an existing church building and generally will not be noticed by the public. The cellular facility is unlikely to discourage development in the vicinity. The tower will be designed to be integrated into the architectural design of the existing church. (5) 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 cellular equipment will create no fumes, dust or noise. Cellular facilities have been located throughout the community in residential, commercial and industrial zones without generating any complaints received by the City. (6) Will the proposed use endanger the public health or safety if located and developed where proposed, or in any way become a nuisance to uses permitted in the district? The proposal is required to be designed by a professional engineer to withstand applicable snow and wind loads. The applicant is also required by law to coordinate with the FAA and FCC prior to obtaining a building permit. A Determination of No Hazard to Air Navigation for the tower has been issued to AT&T by the FAA for the proposed facility. 5 Radio waves at frequencies utilized by local cellular networks have not been proven to be harmful to human health. Radio wave activity is focused on the antennas which are elevated approximately 40 to 50 feet above grade; away from human activity. The cellular antennae and equipment pose no true threat to public health and safety. 1) The special permit shall apply to parcel # 118 - 112 -036 addressed 9915 West Argent Road; 2) The property shall be developed in substantial conformity with the elevations and site plan submitted with the application except as conditioned herein; 3) The cellular antennae enclosure shall not exceed 55.4 feet in height as measured from existing grade; 4) The cellular antennae shall be enclosed within an architecturally integrated feature attached to the church building; 5) The ground -level equipment enclosure shall be located no closer than ten (10) feet from the north and east property lines of parcel # 118- 112 -036; 6) The ground -level equipment shall be located within a decorative block wall which fully blocks the view from all rights -of -way.

Special Permit Facility in an RS -12 (Suburban) Zone (AT &T) (MF# SP 2014 -0011 Continued from the February 27, 2014 Meeting Chairman Cruz read the master file number and asked for comments from staff. Shane O Neill, Planner I, discussed the special permit application for the location of a wireless communication facility in an RS -12 (Suburban Zone). Mr. O Neill stated that the applicant was unable to attend the public hearing but wished for the hearing to still take place. The site is located at Argent Road and Road 100 and is approximately 1.65 acres and contains a church that is roughly 10,000 square feet in size. AT &T is proposing to locate cellular antennas on an attachment to the roof of the existing church building. They are also proposing a ground level equipment enclosure of approximately 276 square feet. Typically cellular facilities propose to locate equipment enclosures at the ground level by their towers and usually fenced. The plans submitted with the application didn't indicate fencing, however, staff is suggesting the permit be conditioned with fencing standards meeting the I -182 Corridor design requirements. The applicant is aware of the proposed condition and is agreeable. Mr. O'Neill briefly reviewed the code criteria for locating wireless communications facilities for the benefit of the Commission. Commissioner Bachart asked for clarification on an approval condition regarding the height exceeding 55.4 feet. Mr. O'Neill responded that it shall not exceed 55.4 feet. Commissioner Hoekstra questioned why Ms. Cope has been unsuccessful in obtaining a signature. Mr. O'Neill answered that the church has a board that serves to make decisions about the church. He is uncertain of the reason but perhaps the board was unable to reach an agreement internally. David McDonald, City Planner, clarified that staff does not know why Ms. Cope has not obtained a signature from the church. Typically the applications come with the signature of the applicant and the property owner. Staff felt that with this application it would beneficial to getting the process started and if the property owners don't sign then the application can be withdrawn. Commissioner Hoekstra asked for clarification on what type of fencing would be required as a condition. Mr. O'Neill responded that the I -182 Overlay District requires a decorative solid screening for equipment enclosures so staff is leaning towards a block wall. Mr. McDonald stated that if the Planning Commission feels it is important enough to condition the special permit with the block wall fencing requirement then that can be done in order to preserve the character of the neighborhood. Chairman Cruz asked if the applicant intended on having a generator that would produce noise. Mr. O'Neill responded that there is no mention of a generator but there is an equipment enclosure and sometimes the electrical devices may produce a humming noise. Chairman Cruz stated that they are pre -fab looking boxes and due to the public location, a block wall would be suggested to make the area more aesthetically pleasing and remove noise concerns. Chairman Cruz read an email from the applicant, Julie Cope, into the record stating that she was fine with the hearing proceeding and the tentative approval conditions. She mentioned the antennas enclosed adding on to the top of the church and embedding the antennas in the add -on and there are no FAA lights. With no further comments the public hearing was closed. Commissioner Khan asked staff about a line in bold in the staff report regarding the PMC and if the church was publicly owned. Mr. O'Neill stated that it was not publicly owned. Mr. McDonald clarified that it only had to meet one of the requirements listed from the PMC. Commissioner Kempf moved, seconded by Commissioner Polk, to close the hearing on the proposed cellular wireless facility and initiate deliberations and schedule adoption of findings of fact, conclusions and a recommendation to the City Council for the April 17, 2014 meeting.

Legal: Parcel's #: 115 - 430 -173, 115 - 430 -174, 115 - 441 -022, 115 - 430 -031 and 115 - 442 -012: Lots 13 & 14 Binding Site Plan 2002 -05 together with Lot 3 Binding Site Plan 2005 -08, Lot 4 and the northerly 144 feet of Lot 3, Block 4 of Broadmoor Park # 1 General Location: 9335 Sandifur Parkway Property Size: 519,244 ft' or approximately 12 acres 2. ACCESS: The site has access from Sandifur Parkway 3. UTILITIES: The existing storage facility is currently served by municipal water and sewer. The proposed storage buildings will not require connection to municipal sewer and water. 4. LAND USE AND ZONING: The property is currently zoned C -1 (Retail Business). Most of the surrounding property is zoned C -1 and is undeveloped. The zoning and land use of the surrounding properties are as follows: NORTH: R -1 - Multi - Family Residences SOUTH: C -1 - Vacant/ Commercial EAST: C-1- Vacant WEST: C -1 - Vacant/ Commercial 5. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The site is designated in the Comprehensive Plan for future commercial uses. The Plan does not specifically address self - storage facilities, but elements of the Plan encourage the promotion of orderly development including the development of zoning standards for off - street parking and other development. Policy LU -1 -13 encourages enhancement of the physical appearance of development within the City. The Comprehensive Plan (LU -4 -B) encourages the grouping of commercial uses to promote functional and economical marketing and operations to produce sustainable clusters of shopping and services. Policy LU -2 -D requires all development to be landscaped. ED -3 -E suggests the use of landscaping to provide a buffer between less intensive uses (such as residential) from utilitarian areas of commercial and industrial facilities. 6. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The City of Pasco is the lead agency for this project. Based on the SEPA checklist, the adopted City Comprehensive Plan, City development regulations, and other information, a threshold determination resulting in a Determination of Non - Significance (DNS) has been issued for this project under WAC 197 -11 -158. ANALYSIS The owners of the existing Broadmoor Storage self - storage facility have applied to expand their capacity by way of new construction. The proposal involves the addition of eight (8) new storage buildings and two (2) new carports. In the C -1 (Retail Business) zone mini- storage facilities are listed under Permitted Conditional Uses (PMC 25.42.040(4); thereby requiring special permit approval prior to their location or expansion. As indicated in the site plan submitted with the application (Exhibit `11, the proposal involves the construction of eight (8) storage buildings varying in size from 3,077 square feet to 17,850 square feet. The total area of the proposed storage buildings combined is approximately 91,483 square feet (2.1 acres). Also included in the proposal are two covered parking carport structures; each carport is 22,365 square feet for a total of 44,730 square feet. In all, a total of 136,213 square feet (3.1 acres) of new structures is proposed. Although the proposal involves what are now five (5) separate parcels, the parcels are currently being reconfigured so all of the new construction will occur on a single tax parcel. The new parcel slated for development will not incur any additional right -of -way frontage beyond what exists for the existing Broadmoor Storage site. Mini- storage facilities are not a permitted use in the C -1 (Retail Business District). Mini - storage facilities are, however, a conditional use that may be permitted only by the granting of a special permit. Special Permit reviews and determinations are made based upon the criteria listed in PMC Section 25.86.060 and itemized below under the "findings of fact" section. If it can be demonstrated that a mini - storage facility will be in accordance with the policies of the Comprehensive Plan, that it will be maintained in harmony with the existing or intended character of the surrounding neighborhood, and that it generally supports the other criteria of PMC Section 25.86.060, a Special Permit may be approved. As discussed above the Special Permit review process allows the Planning Commission to make a determination on whether or not a proposed use will be or can be maintained in harmony with the existing or intended character of the neighborhood. It is through this process that the Planning Commission may develop approval conditions that would ensure the proposal will be established and operated in harmony with the neighborhood. The intended character of the neighborhood includes future retail and office uses as well as residential uses. The 2 neighborhood is not intended for storage and warehousing which are most appropriate in the C -3 (General Business) and industrial zoning districts. 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. The Planning Commission may add additional findings to this listing as the result of factual testimony and evidence submitted during the open record hearing. 1. The site is addressed 9335 Sandifur Parkway. 2. The site is accessed from Sandifur Parkway. 3. Currently the site is approximately 12 acres in area. 4. Municipal sewer and water currently serve the site. 5. The site currently contains a storage facility. 6. The applicant owns and operates the existing Broadmoor Storage facility. 7. A Special Permit was granted allowing establishment of the existing facility. 8. The site is zoned C -1 (Retail Business). 9. The C -1 zone lists mini - storage facilities as a Permitted Conditional Use. 10. The Comprehensive Plan designates the site for future commercial uses. 11. The site is located within the boundaries of the I -182 Overlay District. 12. The site is adjacent to the Mediterranean Villas residential subdivision, to the north. 13. The applicant proposes to increase the capacity of the existing mini - storage facility by constructing eight (8) new storage buildings and two (2) new carport structures. 14. PMC 25.75.050(3)(B) requires a ten (10) foot wide landscaping buffer between commercial and residential zones. 15. The requirements for commercial landscape buffers are listed in PMC Section 25.75.050(3)(B). CONCLUSIONS BASED ON THE FINDINGS OF FACT Before recommending approval or denial of a special permit the Planning Commission must develop findings of fact from which to draw its conclusion based upon the criteria listed in P.M.C. 25.86.060 and determine whether or not the proposal: (1) Will the proposed use be in accordance with the goals, policies, objectives and text of the Comprehensive PlanP A mini - storage facility can be compatible with several Comprehensive Plan policies. Policy LU -1 -B encourages enhancement of the physical appearance of development within the City. The proposal would replace vacant land with a well - developed facility containing perimeter landscaping. Policy LU -2 -13 requires all development to be landscaped. Development of the site currently includes landscaping which support policies of the Comprehensive Plan (LU2 -D). In this case, original development of the existing facility was done in a way that reduces the amount of right -of -way frontage. This was done to make as much road frontage as possible available to future commercial uses which more heavily rely on visibility from passers -by. The existing right -of- way landscaping on this portion of Sandifur Parkway is complete; no additional right -of -way landscaping is required. (2) Will the proposed use adversely affect public infrastructure? All municipal utilities are currently available to the site from surrounding streets. Water and sewer demands of the proposed use will be negligible compared to permitted uses such as restaurants and similar uses. Impacts to the adjoining streets will likewise be minimal. (3) Will the proposed use be constructed, maintained and operated to be in harmony with existing or intended character of the general vicinity? The Comprehensive Plan encourages the grouping of commercial uses to promote functional and economical marketing and operations to produce sustainable clusters of shopping and services (LU -4 -13). The proposed use may be less intensive from an activity standpoint than other permitted uses in the C -1 zone but does not necessarily support the commercial clustering of businesses permitted in the C -1 zone. The adjacent land to the north contains residential development. Per PMC 25.75.050(3)(B) commercially zoned properties adjacent to properties in less intense zoning districts shall have a ten (10) foot landscape buffer on the side immediately adjacent to the less intense zoning district. To comply with this provision the tentative approval conditions contain a requirement to install the necessary ten foot landscape buffer along the north property line. (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 existing self- storage facility has been designed to meet the design requirements of the I -182 Overlay District (PMC 25.58). All walls of the proposed structures facing a right -of -way will be required be treated with architectural design features to meet the requirements of the I -182 Overlay District. Structures in the C -1 zone are limited to thirty five (35) feet in height. None of the proposed structures will approach 35 feet in height with the tallest structure being twenty five (25) feet in height. 4 Neither the location nor the height of the proposal is likely to discourage permitted uses from establishing in the vicinity. (5) 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? To date, no complaints about the effects of operations for the existing mini - storage facility have been received by the city. Typically, a mini - storage facility will generate far less daily traffic, noise, dust, etc. than some uses permitted in the C -1 zone; such as restaurants, taverns, night -clubs and car- washes. The normal hours for general (customer) access to the storage units is between 6am to l 1pm; with 24 -hour access available for an added cost. Based on statements from Broadmoor Storage staff, only a handful of customers take advantage to the 24 -hour access service. (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? As a general land use, mini - storage facilities are not inherently dangerous to public health or safety. The expansion however, may be noticed by the residences to the north. Currently the storage buildings are approximately 420 linear feet away from the nearest residential property to the north. Under the proposal at hand the northernmost storage building will be located within fifteen (15) feet of the same residential properties. This change in proximity to the residences may be disruptive to the lifestyles of the existing residents. However, the same can be said for any new development proposed adjacent to the homes. The land south of Mediterranean Villas has been commercially zoned ever since the homes were developed. APPROVAL CONDITIONS 1) The special permit shall apply to Franklin County tax parcel #115442012; 2) The site shall be developed in substantial conformance with the site plan submitted with the Special Permit application; 3) The property must be developed in conformance with the I -182 Overlay District design standards; 4) All aisle -ways between buildings and all entrance driveways /roads shall be hard - surfaced; 5) All building walls exposed to an existing city street together with all walls visible from adjoining properties shall contain architectural features to add 5 interest and aesthetic qualities to building by the use of masonry coursing, pilasters, patterning, alternating textures and decorative molding to match the existing office building. No composite materials, such as typical home siding, are permitted; 6) All metal roofing shall be colored to complement the existing mini - storage buildings while minimizing glare; 7) All security lighting shall be shielded and designed to prevent the encroachment of light onto adjoining properties; 8) A minimum ten foot wide landscaping buffer meeting the requirements set forth in PMC 25.75.050(3)(B) shall be installed along the entire length of the north property line; 9) Prior to obtaining a building permit for the mini- storage facility the applicant shall complete a Boundary Line Adjustment, adjusting the current property lines so as to create one parcel upon which the completed mini - storage facility is to be located; 10) The Special Permit shall be null and void if a building permit has not been obtained by June 30, 2015. MOTION for Findings of Fact: I move to adopt findings of fact and conclusions therefrom as contained in the April 17, 2014 staff report. MOTION for Recommendation: I move based on the findings of fact and conclusions as adopted the Planning Commission recommend the City Council grant a special permit to allow the expansion of a mini - storage facility on tax parcel # 115 - 442 -012 addressed 9335 Sandifur Parkway with conditions as contained in the April 17, 2014 staff report. 0 ; �-Owlkoe twgumme < I %� % % O % % % % / / / /O %% • ry, e { VM'IX1atlNdV'A7Md X d 3 LLM1iS NOISNVdX33VVNO1SiW OM/OS SfEV6 Oi9 v wa r s U % FO Q X P a $ b 4-) a .rq x w ; �-Owlkoe twgumme < I %� % % O % % % % / / / /O %% • ry, Vicinity Map z Nei R Item: Special Permit Applicant: Sound Investment N File #: SP2014 -003 ,'UR PKWY • j. t K h 1 i i I T i I - Q T @yy= VINCENZO DR —Multi-Family Residences- N NIAJESTIA LN bi N M 0 Zoning tem: Special Permit g Applicant: Sound Investment N Map File #: SP2014 -003 n U� z a a z a a VINCENZO DR o R -3 H tedium-Density Residential) MAJESTIA LN b SANDIFUR PKWY C -1 (Retail Business a a r� �MyN �1 •*u{ VI d a A 4ml ;s 0 rl) bA a 0 0 A J,vt FF ge 17 71 ew IA a� a� •� a Planning Commission Minutes 3/20/2014 C. Special Permit Expansion of a Storage Facility (Sound Investment Group LLC) (MF# SP2014 -0031 Chairman Cruz read the master file number and asked for comments from staff. Shane O'Neill, Planner I, discussed the special permit application for the expansion of a storage facility. The applicant is proposing to expand their existing storage facility significantly at 9335 Sandifur Parkway. The site is zoned C -1 and is located in the 1 -182 Corridor Overlay District. The current facility has been developed to meet the design requirements of the Overlay District. In the C -1 Zone, storage facilities are listed under permitted conditional uses, meaning they are not regularly permitted and are required to go through the special permit process. The site plan submitted with the application shows 8 new storage buildings of various sizes. The Pasco Municipal Code requires a 10 foot landscaped buffer along the northern property line were the site adjoins a residential zoning district. The applicant has stated that the current hours of operation are 8:00am- 11:00pm, however they do allow 24 -hour access for customers who wish to pay for that additional costs, meaning there could be some noise disturbance from time to time. Commissioner Kempf asked about curb and sidewalk requirements. Mr. O'Neill responded that there is currently curbing but no sidewalks. The sidewalks are not required since the applicant is reconfiguring their boundary lines and development will not occur along the frontage of the property. Commissioner Khan asked if staff had received any complaints or police reports for the current storage facility. Mr. O'Neill answered that staff has not received any complaints. Staff has not looked any to police reports. Commissioner Bachart asked if there was any discussion regarding building heights for the covered carports used for RV's. Mr. O'Neill responded that the zoning district structures to 35 feet in height. Commissioner Bachart asked if the current structure on the property is fairly tall. Mr. McDonald stated that the old ice arena was fairly tall and could reach up to the 35 foot level. Commissioner Bachart wanted to make sure that the carports wouldn't look out of place. Mr. McDonald replied that they would not be seen from Sandifur Parkway and would not look out of place. Chairman Cruz added that the structure will be set back far enough and the structure will not have occupancy for people to look into the neighboring backyards. There is a generous enough buffer. Nicholas Cameron, 3308 Riverhaven, spoke on behalf of his application and explained the lot configuration. He stated that the RV and boat covers won't be any taller than 25 feet. They don't expect much of an increase of traffic. As for security, they have a one -way access gate for the tenants to use with a key card, alarms and a camera with overall security system. At this time they have not had any security problems. The facility is also used for canine police training. Commissioner Hoekstra asked about the setbacks on the north end of the property and who would be responsible for maintaining the piece of land between the fence the adjoining property. Mr. Cameron answered that it will depend on the requirements by the City. They intend to do low maintenance landscaping, rocks, shrubs and trees and don't plan on having irrigation as they don't wish to plant grass. Mr. McDonald added that the Pasco Municipal Code specifies the required landscaping and will be the responsibility of the property owner to maintain. Chairman Cruz stated that it doesn't have to be grass but could be rock or other landscaping. Mr. O'Neill replied that it is not a typical landscaping strip but rather a buffer between the residential homes. With no further comments the public hearing closed. Commissioner Hoekstra discussed the landscaping buffer and was in agreement with the conditions. Commissioner Kempf moved, seconded by Commissioner Hoekstra, to close the public hearing and schedule deliberations, the adoption of findings of fact and development of a recommendation for City Council for the April 17, 2014 meeting.

Kerr, City Attorney REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION MASTER FILE NO: SP 2014 -002 APPLICANT: Bethel Church HEARING DATE: 3/20/2014 600 Shockley Rd. ACTION DATE: 4/17/2014 Richland, WA 99352 BACKGROUND REQUEST FOR SPECIAL PERMIT: Location of a preschool in a C -1 District 1. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION: Legal: Parcel # 115- 502 -016: a portion of the South half of Section 8, Township 9 North, Range 29 WM; General Location: 5202 Outlet Dr. Property Size: Approximately 11 acres 2. ACCESS: The site has access from Sandifur Parkway by way of Outlet Drive 3. UTILITIES: The site is served by municipal water and sewer. 4. LAND USE AND ZONING: The property is currently zoned C -1 (Retail Business). All surrounding property is zoned C -1 and is undeveloped. 5. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The site is designated in the Comprehensive Plan for future commercial uses. The Plan does not specifically address preschools, but elements of the Plan encourage the promotion of orderly development including the development of zoning standards for off - street parking and other development. 6. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The City of Pasco is the lead agency for this project. Based on the SEPA checklist, the adopted City Comprehensive Plan, City development regulations, and other information, a threshold determination resulting in a Determination of Non - Significance (DNS) has been issued for this project under WAC 197- 11 -158. ANALYSIS In September of 2012 the City Council approved a Special Permit (Resolution 3426) for Bethel Church to use four suites in the Broadmoor Outlet Mall for worship activities, with the following conditions: 1) The special permit shall be personal to the applicant; 2) The space leased to the church must comply with all requirements of the International Building Code for an "A" occupancy prior to occupancy by the church; 3) The storefront appearance of the leased space cannot be altered except as needed to comply with Building Code exiting requirements; 4) The building, including entrances and restrooms, must be ADA /handicap - compliant prior to occupancy by the church; 5) Occupancy of the building for church purposes will not be permitted until the church complies with all conditions listed above; 6) The church shall not object to the transfer, renewal or issuance of a liquor license for an existing or new establishment within 1,000 feet of the property; 7) This special permit shall be valid for a period of three years and will expire on October 1, 2015. The Church received an occupancy registration in April of 2013 and has been operating in this location since that time. The Bethel Church leases approximately 17,936 square feet of floor area located in the southeast corner of the Outlet Mall Complex. The lease agreement requires the Bethel Church to participate in all common area charges shared by all lessees within the Mall. The Church has recently applied for a Special Permit to operate a preschool at this same location, utilizing approximately 2,000 square feet of their lease area for the program. The preschool plans to operate 6 mornings per week with 40 students and 5 staff members. The proposed preschool location has parking to the north and south side of the building. As noted above, the Church Special Permit will expire on October 1, 2015. The Outlet Mall was constructed to meet Building Code requirements for retail activities. Educational institutions are classified in the Building Code as "E" occupancies. When a building is changed from one occupancy class to another (from an "M" [Mercantile] to an "E" [Educational] for example) the building is required to meet life /safety standards pertaining to the new occupancy classification. Meeting these standards would be listed as a condition of issuance of the Special Permit. A potential problem with a preschool locating in a commercial area is the fact that some retail establishments or restaurants sell or serve liquor. The issue is also typically addressed by placing a condition on the Special Permit approval limiting the preschool's ability to object to a liquor license. 2 While the Special Permit for the sponsoring entity (Bethel Church) is due to expire in October of 2015, preschools are allowed in C -1 zones with a Special Permit. Thus even without the church sponsorship the preschool could continue through another organization or as a stand -alone commercial business. According to the Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 170 - 295 - 0020(1), "Individuals, entities and agencies that provide care for children must be licensed unless specifically exempt under RCW 43.215.010(2)." The current application falls under the exemption found in RCW 43.215.010(2)(e): "Nursery schools that are engaged primarily in early childhood education with preschool children and in which no child is enrolled on a regular basis for more than four hours per day," as the Bethel preschool will operate only 4 hours or less per day and engage only preschool -age children. If the preschool were to exceed these limitations and fall under the WAC 170 -295 regulations a fenced play area would be required (WAC 170 - 295 -5090) with "a minimum of seventy-five usable square feet per child using the play area at any one time." (170 -295- 2130). FINDING$ 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. The Planning Commission may add additional findings to this listing as the result of factual testimony and evidence submitted during the open record hearing. 1. Applicant desires to locate a commercial preschool in a C -1 zone 2. Commercial preschools are unclassified uses requiring review through the special permit process prior to locating or expanding in any zoning district. 3. Applicant previously secured a Special Permit to operate a church (Bethel Church) at this location in September of 2012. 4. The Church received an Occupancy Registration in March of 2013 and has been in operation from that time to the present. 5. The Church Special Permit expires in October of 2015 6. The proposed site is in a C -1 Zoning district. 7. The proposed site is located at 5202 Outlet Drive. 3 8. The site was originally developed as the Broadmoor Outlet Mall. 9. The Outlet Mall contains over 103,000 square feet of floor area. 10. The Church occupies approximately 17,936 square feet of floor area in the southeast corner of the Outlet Mall Complex. 11. The preschool will utilize about 2,000 square feet within the Bethel Church lease property for their operation. 12. The preschool would operate Monday- Friday, from 9 am tol1:15 a.m. 13. About twenty -nine percent of the Outlet Mall is currently vacant. 14. The preschool would serve approximately 40 children per day under the supervision of 5 employees. 15. The Municipal Code (PMC 25.78.170) specifies one parking space for each employee and one space per 6 children for a daycare facility (for the purpose of parking calculations preschools are treated like daycare facilities). With 5 employees and 40 children the center would require 12 parking spaces for its operation. 16. Parking areas are located to the north and south of the proposed preschool location with more than 113 parking spaces. 17. Preschools are classified as an "E" occupancy under the International Building Code. 18. The Mall was designed and built for "M" occupancy loads. 19. "E" occupancy building design standards are different than the "M" occupancy standards. 20. Nearly forty-three percent of the Outlet Mall is occupied by institutional uses (Charter College, Bethel Church /Preschool and Police Mini Station). 21. Current Mall tenants include Bethel Church, Broadmoor Fitness, Charter College, City of Pasco Police (mini station), Dress Barn, Gordon Winery, Little Mud Pies (clothing store), and Van Heusen. 22. Gordon Winery serves alcoholic beverages. 23. The proposed preschool as represented by the application and subsequent e-mail communications is exempt from State licensing and oversight, as per WAC170- 295 -0020 and RCW 43.215.010(2). 4 CONCLUSIONS BASED ON THE FINDINGS OF FACT Before recommending approval or denial of a special permit the Planning Commission must develop findings of fact from which to draw its conclusion based upon the criteria listed in P.M.C. 25.86.060 and determine whether or not the proposal: (1) Will the proposed use be in accordance with the goals, policies, objectives and text of the Comprehensive Plan? The Plan does not specifically address preschools, but elements of the Plan encourage the promotion of orderly development including the development of zoning standards for off -street parking and other development standards. (2) Will the proposed use adversely affect public infrastructure? The Outlet Mall was designed to handle significant traffic with a large parking lot and interior circulation. The proposed preschool will operate in the mornings on weekdays when other Mall traffic is generally low and utility usage is low. (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 preschool will be located in the Broadmoor Outlet Mall and no exterior changes are planned to the building. The current store front character will be maintained. The Bethel Church participates in common area maintenance costs under its lease, which would include the preschool. The intended character of the Outlet Mall is retail in nature. The proposed preschool is not expected to impact the character of the mall in a permanent manner. (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 proposed preschool will be located in part of the existing Outlet Mall currently leased by Bethel Church and no structures will be built or added to the Mall. The site design will remain unchanged. Bethel Church pays market rent and is responsible for common area charges like all tenants of the Mall. (5) 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? 5 The preschool will generate no more dust, vibrations, flashing lights or fumes than would be expected by permitted retail uses of the zoning district. Traffic generated by the preschool will occur mostly on weekday mornings when Mall traffic is minimal. (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? Past history of preschool operations within the City has shown they do not endanger public health or safety and are generally not nuisance generators. APPROVAL CONDITIONS 1) The special permit shall apply to 5202 Outlet Dr. located on parcel 115- 502 -016; 2) The space leased to the preschool must comply with all requirements of the International Building Code for an "E" occupancy prior to occupancy by the preschool; 3) The storefront appearance of the leased space cannot be altered except as needed to comply with Building Code exiting requirements; 4) Any outdoor play area operating in conjunction with the preschool must be fenced and otherwise comply with the requirements of WAC 170 -295- 2130 and WAC 170- 295 -5090. 5) The building, including entrances and restrooms, must be ADA/ handicap - compliant prior to occupancy by the preschool; 6) Occupancy of the building for preschool purposes will not be permitted until the preschool complies with all conditions listed above; 7) The preschool shall not object to the transfer, renewal or issuance of a liquor license for an existing or new establishment within 1,000 feet of the property. MOTION: I move to adopt findings of fact and conclusions therefrom as contained in the April 17, 2014 staff report.

Special Permit Chairman Cruz read the master file number and asked for comments from staff. Rick White, Community & Economic Development Director, discussed the special permit application for the location of a preschool in a C -1 Zone. In September 2012, Council approved a special permit for the church to locate in the outlet mall that is roughly 18,000 square feet. Special permits are required for preschools, which is what the applicant is applying for. They plan to use roughly 2,000 square feet of the church for the preschool. Commissioner Bachart asked if there was any more concern with the church continuing to operate on this property along with the daycare and if there will be an influx of traffic. Mr. White answered that he believes the preschool will operate six days per week. Commissioner Bachart asked if the other tenants have raised any issues with the additional cars. Mr. White stated no. Chairman Cruz added that most of the other tenants are retail, the gym and Charter College which have more evening activity so there shouldn't be an issue with traffic during the preschool hours. The applicant stated that they did not wish to speak at the public hearing. With no further comments the public hearing closed. Commissioner Kempf asked the applicants about outdoor play space for the children. Chairman Cruz re- opened the public hearing to allow the applicant to respond. Amanda Stueckle, 6216 Devon Court, responded that there is a grass area to the east of the building that they hope to fence in but they will need to get clearance from the landlords. Chairman Cruz asked if it will have to be cleared with DHS. Ms. Stueckle stated that they are not a daycare so do not need clearance through DHS. -1- David McDonald, City Planner, added that since they are not a daycare they do not need a license through the state, however they will need a fence at least 4' tall or higher. Commissioner Hoestra asked if the preschool will be open to the public. Ms. Stueckle responded that it will be non - discriminatory and open to the public and will operate 5 days a week. At most there will only be 32 children, with two classrooms. Commissioner Khan stated that operating hours are around the peak hours for Charter College and the gym so there is some cause concern for traffic on Sandifur. Mr. White responded that the preschool will generate less traffic than a retail store would if it located in the same location so traffic concerns should not be an issue. Commissioner Polk commented that the staff report mentioned the outlet mall is about 29% vacant. She asked if staff knew how adding a preschool would impact business in the outlet mall. Mr. White responded that it may not impact the business activity in the outlet mall. There was concern when the church applied for their special permit with this location being a prime retail location. Whether the church continues their use there or not, staff does not know but he doesn't see affecting other business. Chairman Cruz added that he didn't believe the preschool would affect the business growth since there is already a church operating at this location and the preschool will be contained in the church that is already operating. Traffic also did not seem to be an issue. There will be traffic peaks, in the morning and evening, but he feels the evening is worse. Commissioner Hoekstra asked for clarification of the Planning Commission's role on the land use and activity that would be occurring and safety concerns for this special permit. Mr. White responded that from a land use stand point, the applicant will need to apply for a city business license and go through that regulatory process. The state has an inspection process for preschools, although they may not be licensed in the terms normally thought of, such as with daycares. He stated that he didn't have any issues from a safety stand point. For land use, the code speaks about the appropriateness of the special permit process for a number of uses in any zone. Staff does not feel that there is anything extraordinary about this particular special permit application. Commissioner Khan asked if there are crosswalks between the sidewalk of the outlet mall to the parking lot or signage that might go up to warn drivers that there are -2- children and a speed limit to be posted accordingly. Mr. White answered that at this point there are not crosswalks or signage. Chairman Cruz added that the preschool is the southeastern corner of the outlet mall and nobody goes around the backside and children will not be walking through the parking lot. With no further comments the public hearing closed. Commissioner Hoekstra moved, seconded by Commissioner Polk, to close the public hearing and schedule deliberations, the adoption of findings of fact and development of a recommendation for City Council for the April 17, 2014 meeting. The motion passed unanimously. -3- B. Special Permit Planning Commission Minutes 4/17/2014 Chairwoman Greenaway read the master file number and asked for comments from staff. Rick White, Community 8a Economic Development Director, discussed the special permit application for the location of a preschool in a C -1 Zone. Per Planning Commission discussion a condition has been added to the staff report requiring a fence if the preschool added an outdoor play area. Additionally a discussion was added to the staff report explaining the difference between a regulated preschool and an unregulated preschool. In the case of the Bethel Church Preschool would be in the unregulated preschool category due to the amount of hours the child will be at the preschool and will not require the State requirements. Commissioner Portugal stated that as a required school teacher realizes that children will sometimes wander and the fence requirement would add to that protection. He asked if the fence would be negotiated with the neighboring properties. Mr. White responded that it was his understanding that the church doesn't know if they will have an outdoor play area but the Commission wanted the precaution added in case they do have an outdoor play area. Commissioner Hoekstra discussed the fencing requirements as stated in the staff report regarding the State requirements and possibly adding a condition for fencing even if the State would not require the fencing. Commissioner Portugal asked if there is going to be an indoor play area since children that age will need several breaks. Mr. White responded that the preschool hasn't begun yet and is unsure if there will be an indoor play area. Addressing Commissioner Hoekstra's discussion, he stated that they could change the language of one of the conditions in the staff report to state that any outdoor play area must be fenced. Commissioner Bachart stated that he felt the current condition in the staff report is interpreted to require fencing if there should be an outdoor play area regardless of State requirements. Mr. White agreed with Commissioner Bachart in that the way the current condition is written will require an outdoor play area to be fenced should they have one. Commissioner Hoekstra agreed with Mr. Bachart regarding the fencing condition. -1- Commissioner Hoekstra moved, seconded by Commissioner Khan, to adopt the findings of fact and conclusions therefrom as contained in the April 17, 2014 staff report. The motion passed unanimously. Commissioner Hoekstra moved, seconded by Commissioner Bachart, based on the findings of fact and conclusions therefrom the Planning Commission recommend the City Council grant a special permit for the location of a preschool operation at 3315 W. Court Street, with conditions as listed in the April 17, 2014 staff report. The motion passed 6 to 1, with Commissioner Kempf dissenting. -2- AGENDA REPORT NO. 13 FOR: City COunc April 23, 2014 TO: Gary Crutchfle anager FROM: Ahmad Qayo , i, ublic Works Director Workshop Mtg.: 04/28/2014 Regular Mtg.: 05/05/2014 SUBJECT: Waste Water Treatment Plant 3`d Primary Clarifier I.

ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: 04/28: Discussion 05/05: MOTION: I move to approve the Professional Services Agreement from HDR Engineering, Inc. authorizing design and engineering services with respect to the Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvements 3`d Primary Clarifier, not to exceed $238,980 and further, authorize the City Manager to sign the agreement. III. FISCAL IMPACT: A) $238,980 ;Sewer Utility Account IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: A) In June 2010, the City received a renewal permit from the Department of Ecology for the Wastewater Treatment Plant with a condition that the City complete a Comprehensive Engineering Study to optimize operations of the plant to meet Department of Ecology (DOE) requirements. B) Murray Smith & Associates completed a Draft Comprehensive Sewer Plan (reviewed by Council on March 31) that identifies a number of capital improvements. The Sewer Plan has recommended that the current WWTP be expanded to treat up to 12 MGD in the next 10 -15 years to meet the upcoming regulations. The current primary clarifier has a total capacity of 5 MGD. As of 2013 we are at 95% capacity of the first and second primary clarifiers. It is imperative to construct a third clarifier. C) To address growth and a future 12 MGD capacity improvement to the WWTP, the new 3`d clarifier will have capacity of 7 MGD. Adding the third clarifier will be cost effective at this time, while providing additional efficiencies to help reduce energy for second and tertiary waste removal treatments. V. DISCUSSION: A) In February 2014, the City solicited consultants for the clarifier design work. Three responses were received. In March staff interviewed CH2MHill, HDR and MSA. Staff included a panel of 5 staff members who scored the consultants understanding of the project and project approach. Panel members recommend HDR as their top choice. B) Staff negotiated the scope and fees with HDR. After extensive negotiations staff recommends award of the professional services agreement for the Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvements 3`d Primary Clarifier to HDR. 10(a) Professional Services Agreement (Summary Sheet) Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvements 3rd Primary Clarifier HDR 2805 Saint Andrews Loop, Suite A.

A new 7 MGD clarifier(s), with an expanded hydraulic distribution structure, will be provided to achieve the necessary capacity. In addition, new primary sludge pumping will be provided to incorporate the new clarifier as well as improve reliability of the existing primary sludge pumping system. The scope of services is organized into the following tasks: Task Series 100 — Project Management and QA/QC Task Series 200 — Preliminary Engineering Task Series 300 — Final Design Task Series 400 — Permitting and Public Involvement Support Task Series 500 — Additional Services New Primary Sedimentation Facilities The new primary sedimentation tank will be designed, along with necessary support facilities, as defined below. Description of Project Design Elements Major design components to be included in the design of the new clarification system will consist of the following: • Primary Sedimentation Tanks. A new rectangular primary sedimentation tank, using two clarifier mechanisms and a central dividing wall to allow for isolation of each sub - tank, will be designed to treat a peak flow capacity of 7 million gallons per day. The tanks will have open tops (no covers or superstructure), manual scum troughs, spray water for scum control, safety railing, and wash down hoses located along the perimeter. The south wall of the new tankage will be designed to support building columns for extension to the metal building structure to the clarifier. Primary Sedimentation Hydraulic Distribution Structure. The existing weir /launder flow distribution control system in the headworks building, which feeds primary influent to the existing sedimentation tanks, will be expanded to provide a new weir /launder system and two isolation slide gates to the new sedimentation tank. Two new primary influent pipelines will connect the hydraulic structure to the new primary sedimentation tank. Flow or level instrumentation will not be included. Additional HVAC or other modifications to the headworks building are not be included. Primary Sludge Pumping. A new sludge pumping room will be designed immediately east of the existing primary sludge room. This new room will be designed based on the HDR 2011 WWTP Improvements Project, which included the structural design for this room which was not implemented as part of the final construction. Two new rotary lobe sludge pumps (one duty, one standby) will draw sludge from the new and existing sedimentation tanks. Electrically actuated automatic control valves on each sludge suction line, controlled via a programmed timing sequence, will actuate to sequentially draw sludge from each tank. A sludge flow meter, local pressure gauges /switches, and Pasco Third Clarifier 1 April 23, 2014 a site glass will be provided for operators to monitor the system, as well as hose bibs for wash down in the room. The roof of the structure will include access hatches for removing equipment. HVAC will be provided at 6 air exchanges per hour with freeze protection heating of the space. It is assumed that a sprinkler system will not be required. • Yard Piping. Additional yard piping will include: • Plant non - potable water service to the new primary tanks • Relocation of the existing 4" sludge /scum lines in conflict with the new primary sedimentation tank footprint • Connection of the new sludge pumps to the existing sludge discharge piping • Routing of the new primary scum piping • Existing Primary Sedimentation Tank Excavation Support. A shoring system and sidewall support will be provided by the construction contractor to protect the south end of the existing primary clarifier tanks during excavation and construction of the new primary sedimentation tanks. The Consultant will prepare design criteria drawing notes and specifications to delineate the requirements for the shoring design. • Stormwater Management. New stormwater utilities will be provided, if necessary, to account for changes in the drainage pattern of the site created by the new facilities. It is assumed these modifications will be minimal and no additional impervious area will be included in the design outside of the building expansions and tankage described in this scope of work. • Site Lighting. Additional lighting for the new primary sedimentation tanks will be provided to accommodate work at night. No new lighting will be provided for the sludge pumping room or hydraulic distribution structure. • Electrical. Power supply, lighting and electrical facilities to serve the new and modified facilities included in the expansion. • Instrumentation and Control. Instrumentation and controls, including hardware, software, control loop descriptions, and related facilities needed to serve the new and modified facilities included in the expansion. • Sitework. Site grading to include structural fill to grade and restoration of the existing surface around the new primary sedimentation tanks. New landscaping and impervious surface (roadways /sidewalks) will not be part of the design. General Design Assumptions The following general assumptions were used to develop project design scope and budget: • New Primary Sedimentation Tank Foundation. Pilings and grade beams will not be required to support the new primary sedimentation tanks. • Survey and Record Drawings. Complete survey data (utilities, topography, structures, surface features, benchmarks) is available in AutoCAD and will be provided by the City. Record drawings of the existing plant facilities (electrical, civil, mechanical, structural) are available in AutoCAD and will be provided by the City except for the original plant drawings which will be provide in a paper or ".pdf" format. Pasco Third Clarifier 2 April 23, 2014 ' 8 • Geotechnical. The City will be responsible to provide all necessary geotechnical information to the Consultant, including an updated Geotechnical Report, for use in the design. • Existing Primary Sedimentation Tank Safety Modifications. All safety modifications if required to the existing primary sedimentation tanks will occur as part of a separate contract. • Construction Management. Contractor bidding assistance, submittal review, inspection, and startup, if desired, will be included as part of a future construction administration services contract with the Consultant. • Control Systems. Field panels and instrumentation will be tied into the existing plant control system. Modification of the existing control system is not required beyond programming to accommodate the new equipment and systems. • Electrical System. Existing MCC's have sufficient capacity and cabinet space for new primary clarifier equipment. New primary distribution wiring and load centers will not be required. Design Methodology The design documents will be prepared using Building Information Modeling (BIM), also referred to as intelligent three - dimensional design. The initial design process is to create the building information model. Final deliverable documents will be a combination of 2D plan views and renderings /isometrics from the BIM model to provide spatial context. To minimize costs, Traditional 2D section cuts will not be used for the process design, except where needed to convey structural design information for the new sedimentation tanks and associated structures.
