CLARIFICATION OF OPEN BURNING: The City Manager read the following clarification
on open burning:
The Department presently will allow burning when the air conditions
are satisfactory in the center of a 50' area or equivalent to a 25'
clearance on all sides. As a result, a person could burn in the
center of the backyard of 50' lot providing he requests a permit
and there is at least 25' clearance in all directions.
NEW BUSINESS:
AGREEMENT - MID -COLUMBIA LIBRARY: 'Prior to vote on Mid-Colum5ia Library, the
City Manager proposed that Section 3 be rewritten as follows:
"The City further agrees to pay to th&:Board in quarterly in
stallments the following sums: during 1973, 1.2 mills; during
1974, 1.1 mills; during 1975 and continuing.thereafter, 1.0
mills providing the contract is extended as provided herein.
The millage shall be applied to the assessed valuation of
property within the City limits to arrive at the annual amount
due. The City hereby advises that it will review the relation --
ship of assessed value to true value in each county during 1975.
In the event the ratio of assessed.valuati'on to true value is
substantially different in cities provided service by the district
which results in one City's payment being substantially higher
than,another, Pasco will take this into consideration when re-
viewing the advisabil'ity of extending the contract."
Section 6 should have the following language inserted at the end of the
paragraph:
"...Further, the Board agrees to assume responsibility for and
credit present City Library employees for accrued annual and sick
leave unused as of January 1, 1973."
Mr. Schor moved that the Mayor be authorized to execute agreement with Mid
Columbia Library, as amended, to extend services as stated in agreement with
Pasco Public Library. Seconded by Mr. Larsen. Motion carried.
