PASCO PUBLIC LIBRARY: (Procedure suggestion) Letter was read from Mr. John Carter, Librarian, stating that at the meeting of the Pasco Public Library Board March 18th, Resolution was passed asking the Mayor to instruct the City Clerk of Pasco that the Library be furnished a copy (listing) of all warrants paid out of library funds, also a monthly balance sheet. Discussion followed as to feasibility of this practice; the added work on the Clerk's office for a routine of this nature seemed unnecessary. It would seem to be general opinion that when vouchers are submitted for payment, that unless they hear otherwise, it would be assumed that everything is alright, and that this amount would be coming out of the fund. All departments should be notified of any change and if any are not paid, the reason for not doing so. Motion made by Hendler, seconded by Stanley, that the City Supervisor work out appropriate system of notifying all departments of changed vouchers, or any vouchers not paid. Motion carried. PASCO PUBLIC LIBRARY: (Request for Emergency Ordinance $2.500.00) Letter read from Mr. John Carter, Librarian, requesting an emergency ordinance in the amount of i $2,500.00 to clear old bills carried over from 1962. Discussion followed relative to methods of control etc. (At this point, Mr. Greenlee arrived, 8:45 P.M.) The Council wondered (due to the fact that in December all old bills were called in for payment, and an emergency ordinance provided for at that time for the payment of old bills, the Library assuring us at that time, this is the end of the old bills contracted by the previous librarian. It was the general consensus of the council that they did not wish to burden the new Librarian with the anoblems left him by the previous librarian. This matter to come up later under "Ordinances". WILLIAM W. CRATER: (Icvigg Street 1100 Block) Letter was read from Mr. Crater (property owner 1103 W. Irving) "You are hereby authorized to remove the trees from the parking strip in front of my property at 1103 West Irving, Pasco."

Bruce, Assistant City Engineer) Letter was read from Mr. Bruce, stating that he wished to terminate his employment with the City as of March 31, 1963. Motion made by James, seconded by Diemond, that the resignation be accepted. Motion carried. VISITORS: Mayor VanHoy invited comments from the audience. Jack Williams: complimented the council on the new arrangement in the Council Chambers. CLAIMS AGAINST THE CITY: $500.00 VOUCHER, RIDGEWAY & WORLEY: Hendler asked the City Attorney if he was ready to rule on this matter at this meeting. Patrick said "Pay it." Mayor VanHoy, requested more formal ruling for matter of record and clarification of the subject in light of there being a new "Conflict of Interest" Statute, 1961. Patrick: This is the first problem we have had under the new 1961 "Conflict of Interests" statute. The first issue to be settled was: whether or not the job Worley holds would class him as a public officer within the meaning of the statute. -- He is a public offic er as a member of the Park Board. Whether or not this contract is one.that would be within the "Conflict of Interests" as it has been newly enacted -- It is not such a contract. Reason: This would have to be a service directly -to the Park Board, when actually this was an efficiency survey of City Hall i strictly, Under the old law, this would have been a conflict of interests but under the newly enacted statute, this is not so. VanHoy asked if it would be advisable - to explain this to persons appointed in the future. Patrick suggested giving them copies of the statute, as each individual case will have to be given individual considers tion and evaluation. Mayor VanHoy advised the council members that the Ridgeway & Worley voucher.,had been signed. PASCO, WASHINGTON REPORTS FROM COMMITTEES: KILBURY -- (Claims, Finance) Water Damage Claims: Five (5) separate claims, $100.00 deductible each -- claim for $500.00 This had been turned to committee. Committee recommends that the $500.00 deductible be taken from the Insurance, Bonds & Industrial Insurance item of the Water Department Budget and the voucher be made up on that fund. Motion made by Kilbury, seconded by James, that this recommendation be accepted. Motion carried. Insurance: Letter has been received from the insurance agents. forming the Insurance Board of the City as to requirements of insurance agents to be a member of the Insurance Advisory Board of the City. The Committee has made• recommendatiom�iib the -form -_of a:-Resolu,tiOAs:'The;)Comir ttee rejects the 4th recommendation of the letter. The Committee also recommends that the Mayor w:ri-te letters to the Insurance Agents advising them that the Council prefers rotating chairman rather than "agent of record". Motion made by Kilbury, seconded by Stanley that at the recommendation of the committee, that the Mayor write a letter to the Insurance Board, advising them that the Council prefers that the present method of setting up the Insurance Board with a rotating chairman rather than an agent of.record be used. Motion carried. Committee also recommends that the participating agent meet annually with the Insurance Committee of the Council to go over the coverage that the city has, and to recommend changes in the coverage at that time. Motion made by Kilbury, seconded by Stanley, that the Insurance Committee and Board be so informed. Motion carried. (Greenlee out of room) OCCUPATION TAX: It is the feeling of the committee that this matter of intention is a legal matter rather than a committee matter and the committee recommends that this be turned to the City Attorney. Motion made by Kilbury, seconded by James, that this matter be turned to the City Attorney for report and interpretation at next regular meeting. (Discussion followed) Motion carried. (Patrick requests the Clerk's department to funnish complete file from origin of this tax, so he may make complete study of same.) Increase in Bond: Dunning Ray raised the $2,500.00 bond to $5,000.00 and was presented for pay- ment with more premiiumv.-Ithan was provided for in the 1963 budget, without first consulting the City. The Committee recommends -that we reject the increase in bond at this time and that in the future it is recommended that the Insurance Board inform the council in advance of items of this kind. Motion made by Kilbury, seconded by Stanley that Dunning Ray be informed by letter that the bond shall stay at $2,500.00 at this time. Motion carried. Kilbury: This does not preclude that the City at their meetings of the Insurance Committee may not at some time decide that this would be acceptable, but at this time it is not recommended. Checks: Discussion was held relative to checks being received by different funds and turned in to the Treasurer. Motion made by Kilbury, seconded by Stanley, that any checks accepted by the City shall be made out directly.to the City of Pasco and the address of the individual writing the check to appear on the check -- the amount of the check shall be in the amount of the purchase or debt. Motion carried. Motion made by Hendler, seconded by James, that all agents of the City who may accept checks, post the necessary notification of the above requirements in a conspicuous location at their stations. Motion carried. Insurance: Quite some time ago we had request from Mr. Emerson Oman to participate in the Insurance Board. The resolution which is proposed for adoption sets forth the rules which mest be met for requirements for membership on theCity's Insurance Board. Under this resolution, Mr. Oman is not presently qualified. Motion made by Kilbury, seconded by Stanley that the Mayor send Mr. Oman a letter advising him of this, submitting a copy of resolution and advise him that this does not preclude his membership at a later time when he becomes qualified. Motion carried. JAMES: (Planning, Legislative) H.B. #3: The last letter from the Association of Washington Cities states it is most unlikely that there will be passage of any bills relative to financial gain to cities. Reason for failure given: not enough support from citizens. Board of Adjustment: Discussion has been held with the Chairman of the Planning Commission some time back, they are thinking along these same lines, believing it would leave mo;ne time for actual planning activities. More time needed.

Motion by roll call vote of seven (7). One other item just handed to me, which has just been brought to the attention of the council: Estimated Repairs needed on the sweeper, price submitted by International (which is presumed to be outside price) $183.68.

Motion made by Hendler, seconded by Greenlee, that the necessary repairs be authorized, providing the Purchase Agent will O.K.th'e Purchase order required at the time. Motion carried. Fireman's Pay In Lieu of Vacation: It is the opinion of the committee that because of the fact that all department heads had advised their employees to use.as much as possible of their vacation time last year, and the -Fireman (Harter) returned.early from his vacation of his own choice that this request should be denied. Motion made by Greenlee, seconded by Stanley, that the request of Fireman Harter for pay in lieu of vacation be denied. Motion carried. Pension Election Forms: Greenlee wondered whether or not the fireman had received their election ballots. Fisher advised the council that the election forms had been distributedc' as required, and that they had all been marked and returned to the Clerk of the Pension Board. STANLEY: (Water & Sewer) John Keltch: The pipe crossing under Road 28 & Hwy #-3, for the 12" water line has now been completed.

(Hudlow) Water System: Letter read from Mr. Hudlow of the P.U.D. dated March 12, 1963 requesting council action on request for special rate on water for use in the proposed River- view Water System. Stanley pointed out that in view of events of the franchise for .the riverview water corporation to service east of Road 68 to Road44 laps over and crosses over the P.U.D. proposed system, this matter should be referred back to the Water Committee and as many of the council in general as possible for further study, regarding working and maintenance agreement. Motion made by Stanley, seconded by James, that this letter of request from P.U.D. be referred to the Water Committee for study and recommendation at the next regular meeting, and that the P.U. D. be asked to attend the Committee Meeting regarding working/agreement between the City and P.U.D. Motion carried. and maintenance At this time Stanley called Water Committee meeting for Friday night 7:30 (with P.U.D. invited). Kilbury: Sets Wednesday night 7 - 9 o'clock for Claims, Special Finance and Accounting Committee meeting. . Stanley advises the committee has discussed the Dutton situation. Fisher: talked to Mr. Foster on this matter. There are several problems. The Highway Department was desirous of having request from the City stating the time limit, in that this is a temporary affair. Depending upon the time of this request -- for a comparatively short period would come through the Yakima office, longer would come from the Highway Commission at Olympia. It would be up to Mr. Dutton to get the permission of the persons for whom the use of these lines were left under the highway. Another problem being that a part of this line is exposed. It is recommended that Mr. Dutton be invited to meet with the Water Committee on Friday; and that when request for use of this line is made, that it be made for two years. Franchise Hearing: Representatives from the City at this hearing were: Stanley, Kilbury, Hendler, Fisher, VanHo­ and Whetsler, and the City went on record as being opposed to this water systems .Because there appeared to be so much opposition to this matter, the County Commissioners have adjourned the hearing until April 1st 2:30 in the afternoon. The City will have represen- tation at this hearing also. The Water Superintendent has been instructed to make a complete file of any pertinent information.

I PASCO, WASHINGTON REGULAR MEETING COUNCIL CHAMBERS MARCH 19, 1963 Traffic, Court Street: We have come to the conclusion that we can not put stop lights. We have been conTe ferring with,!the Principal of the School, but have not received a report from the P.T.A. One indi- vidual has been contacted, this person is a retired gentleman who would have the time, but he feels he does not wish to become involved. The Principals indicate that.due to thef6act that the school year is so nearly over, we may not be able to establish this program during the current school year, but if we continue work along these lines, this probably can be an established program for next school year.

He is quite aware of our problem. It is my personal opinion that he feels our request of transferring the airport, retaining the Golf Course is dependent upon getting the matter before the proper party and clarifying and presenting the facts to this person. We have made formal application March 11, but we haven't heard from them, we don't know if we will encounter any difficulty or not. It is also possible that this may take until after May 1st, but I personally do feel that we should succeed in our determination.
