III. FISCAL IMPACT:
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) Since last fall, Council has had considerable discussion on the need to review City
Council District boundaries (to keep with the 10% population tolerance) and to
develop a new district boundary plan prior to the 2015 election cycle, for which
filing begins on May 11, 2015. Pursuant to RCW 29A.76.010(4), the plan shall be
consistent with the following criteria:
i. Each internal director, council, or commissioner district shall be as nearly equal
in population as possible to each and every other such district comprising the
municipal corporation, county or special purpose district.
ii. Each district shall be as compact as possible.
iii. Each district shall consist of geographically contiguous area.
iv. Population data may not be used for purposes of favoring or disfavoring any
racial group or political party.
v. To the extent feasible and if not inconsistent with the basic enabling legislation
for the municipal corporation, county, or district, the district boundaries shall
coincide with existing recognized natural boundaries and shall, to the extent
possible, preserve existing communities of related and mutual interest.
B) In addition to adjusting boundaries to account for population growth, Council must
be mindful of other issues as follows:
i. The need to consider the City's sizeable Latino population and to attempt to
draw boundaries which provide for equal voting opportunity (not `packing" a
district with such an overwhelming minority population so as to unreasonably
reduce the minority's electoral power and not "cracking" the minority
population into several districts so as to dilute the voting strength of the
minority);
ii. To maintain reasonable electoral balance so that the votes of all voters are not
disproportionately debased while attempting to consider the needs addressed in
i, above; and
iii. To continue to monitor the pending Yakima lawsuit in Federal Court (which has
many similarities to Pasco) to determine if the final outcome will have
implications which merit further consideration by the City.
4(a)
C) In order to meet a tentative deadline for completing the 2015 districts map by
March 2 (allowing at least 60 days prior to the commencement of the candidate
filing period), hearings have been scheduled for January 26 and February 23 so that
public comments may be available to Council during the process. Notice of the
hearing of January 26 was published in the Tri -City Herald, Tu Decides and on the
City's website.
D) The City Attorney and staff have worked with the guidance of a demographic
consultant to review pertinent 2010 US Census data, information from the
American Community Survey (2008-2012), voter registration information from the
Franklin County Auditor, and the official population estimate (2014) for Pasco as
published by the State Office of Financial Management.
E) Given the numerous considerations for setting districts, there are a somewhat
limited number of different district configurations that will address, with equal
satisfaction, all concerns. As such, staff has presented the three alternatives which
it feels will best meet the needs of the public, while withstanding the legal and other
tests of scrutiny which may come from any number of directions.
F) The terms for incumbent Councilrnembers which are subject to election in 2015
include: District No. 1 (Councilmember Yenney), District No. 5 (Councilmember
Francik), and At Large, Position No. 6 (Councilmember Watkins).
G) Options No. 1 through 3 are presented for comment and discussion in the hopes that
serious concerns may be addressed and, if necessary, incorporated into a limited
number of final versions for consideration at the hearing of February 23, 2015.

HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A. On December 1, 2014, Council approved a Sign Code amendment providing
opportunities for local businesses participating in the WSDOT Motorist
Information Sign Program, to locate highway follow-through signs within city
rights-of-way where appropriate.
B. The owner of a local wine bar and tasting room has requested permission to locate
a follow-through sign on Road 100 meeting WSDOT prerequisites for
participating in the on -highway Motorist Information Sign Program. Because the
wine bar is located within the Broadmoor Outlet Mall which is not directly
accessed from Road 100, a follow-through sign is required by WSDOT.
C. The proposed right-of-way license agreement has been developed and will be
used as a required component of a right-of-way permit to allow the follow-
through sign to be constructed and installed.

FOR: City Council January 22, 2015
TO: Dave Zabell, City Manager
FROM: Ahmad Qayoumi, Public Works Director Workshop Mtg.: 1/26/15
SUBJECT: Oregon Avenue Corridor Update
I. REFERENCE(S):
1. Oregon Avenue Corridor — Vicinity Map
2. Oregon Avenue Corridor — Phase Map
H. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
01/26: Discussion — Update Council on Project
III. 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
truck 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 90%
of design work is complete.
D) The City has allocated $427,000 in STP (federal) funds that will be used for design
and project management.
E) Amendment No. 1 was approved on January 21, 2014; and Amendment No. 2 was
approved on November 3, 2014.
F) Additional scope has been added to the design, as the project progressed.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) During analysis and study of the Oregon Avenue corridor significant safety issues
were discovered, over 180 accidents and nine fatal injuries. The traffic study
included a number of recommendations, one of which was to implement access
management at James Street where significant safety issues were occurring. Access
management includes placing median and curbing on the east side as right in and
right out only, closing access on the west side.
B) Significant improvements are needed to address safety, accessibility, other modes of
transportation such as sidewalks, street lights, ADA ramps and new traffic signals.
C) In order to manage the project, based on needs and priority, the project was divided
into two Phases. Phase I (I-1821US395 to "A" Street) and Phase II ("A" Street to
Ainsworth Avenue).
4(d)
D) The Engineer's Estimate for both Phases is approximately $8 Million; $6 Million for
Phase 1 and $2 Million for Phase 11.
E) The majority of safety issues are within Phase I. The City requested our consultant to
complete the Phase I design and then complete Phase II. Phase II mainly includes
Port of Pasco property, the wrecking yard, and Army Corps of Engineer property.
F) The City has used STP funds to complete the design of the project. During project
development, at the time staff was exploring funding and applying for grants, there
was even discussion on possibly funding the construction by implementing a LID.
G) In November 2014, the City was awarded a TIB Grant in the amount of $4.23
Million, and in December 2014, the City was awarded $875,000 in Safety Grants,
giving the City approximately $5.1 Million for construction of Phase I.
I) It's the City's goal to bid the project by late summer, early fall.
1) Phase I - Staff is currently working on:
a. Completing the environmental process by March 2015
b. Right-of-way acquisition, appraisals and certification by July 2015
c. Finale the design and bid documents prepared by August and September 2015
d. Project ready for bid in September or October 2015
e. Notifications to property owners of their utility connections by March 2016.

Regular Mtg.: 2/2/15
SUBJECT: Agreement with Gordon Thomas Honeywell for Federal Legislative Consulting
Services
I. REFERENCE(S):
1. Gordon Thomas Honeywell - Proposed Federal Agreement
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
1/26: Discussion
2/2: MOTION FOR THE CONSENT AGENDA:
I move to approve the agreement with Gordon Thomas Honeywell Governmental
Affairs for federal legislative consultant services and, further, authorize the City
Manager to execute the agreement.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
$60,000 annually
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) The city has contracted with the consulting firm of Gordon Thomas Honeywell
(GTH) for legislative assistance at the state level for several years. In early 2009,
the city entered into a separate agreement with the Washington DC division of
GTH to provide for legislative consulting services specifically geared to federal
funding for the Lewis Street Overpass Project.
B) The agreement with the Washington DC office expired on 12/31/14 and a new
agreement is necessary to sustain the consulting effort on the City's behalf in
Washington DC.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) The proposed agreement is similar to the prior agreements, except for the dates.
The scope of work, as identified in the attachment to the agreement, still focuses
on funding for construction of the Lewis Street Overpass project but also includes
an emphasis on lowering Pasco Levee 12-2 as the final link in the Sacajawea
Heritage River Trail and efforts to establish relationships with newly elected
Representative Newhouse and his staff.
B) The expense of the contract remains unchanged at $5,000 monthly ($60,000
annually). The assistance of the consultant was beneficial in 2009 through
Representative Hastings' effort to obtain a $750,000 allocation for the Lewis
Street Overpass project in the 2010 federal budget. It is also critical to continue
working with the Washington State delegation and federal agency officials to
assure the best opportunity to have Pasco's projects included in future federal
funding bills and to project local influence on agency priorities.
C) Staff recommends renewal of the agreement under the terms listed.
