the people , but it was impossible to please everyone. He publicly praised Mrs.

evening belongs to the outgoing councilmen - Bob Greenlee, George Stork,
Ed Carter and Katie Barton for the tremendous job that they have done in
our City Government over the past several years. They have given un-
sparlingly of their time and it,had to be a labor of love, since they
weren't doing it for the money. I feel very privileged to follow in the
footsteps of Mayo.r Ed Carter. As Mayor these past many years, he has
performed his job of leadership extremely.well and his shoes will be very
hard to fill. There is no way to adenuately compensate Ed Carter and the
outgoing councilmen for their past duty and devotion to the City, but we
must agree that the citizens of Pasco owe them a large debt of gratitude."

I.A.F.F. ##1433 - AMBULANCE DRIVERS: In response to correspondence in agenda (at

;i firefighters in view of his leaving; however, it was his recommendation that ambulance
drivers be included in the bargaining agreement but not under Civil Service regulations.
Mr. Denney moved that the City Manager be authorized to negotiate with International
Association of Firefighters concerning ambulance drivers, with the understanding that
they be included in the Firemen's contract but not placed under Civil Service.
Seconded by Mr. Wilkins. Motion carried.
RESIGNATION - RALPH OAKLEY - PLANNING COMMISSION: Correspondence was received from

PUBLIC HEARING:
MAYOR LINTON DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN TO VACATE A PORTION OF NORTH
SECOND AVENUE IN THE VICINITY OF BOLIN'S ADDITION:
It was reported that the Hearing had been duly published and posted. There were
no adverse communications. Correspondence was read from City Planning Commission,
recommending the vacation of North Second Avenue between West Pearl Street and West
North Street, and further, that the entire street remain as an easement.
Following three (3) calls from Mayor Linton for further comments from the floor,
either for or against, the Public Hearing was declared closed.
VISITORS:
MILTON SCHULTZ called attention to letter he had written the City Council re:
location of proposed new bridge and unnecessary tearing down of existing bridge.
He reminded the Council that he had written the Coast Guard too, and then asked for an
itemized list of expenditures connected with new bridge. Mr. Winegar assured him
he could get a copy.
Councilman Denney asked Mr. Schultz if he.had abandoned the idea of an underwater
river tunnel. The reply was negative.
Councilman Wilkins asked Mr. Schultz if he was an engineer. Again, the answer was
negative, he was an electrician.
At this point, Mayor Linton .invited Mr. Ed Hendler to respond on progress of new
Inter -City Bridge. Mr. Hendler stated that he would be going back to Washington
again as he had met with opposition from the Coast Guard relative to vertical clearance.
He enlightened the Council of progress from 1970 to date and expressed his concern
that one man could alter the decision of many and cost the taxpayers an additional
$190,000.'00 in order_ to raise the vertical clearance from 56' to 61 1/2'.
Mayor Linton thanked Mr. Hendler for his response and commended him for his efforts.

and asked the Council's concurrence.
(February 17, 1976) on the Civil Service Commission,
Councilman Denney asked that this appointment be referred to Workshop Session of the
City Council as he was opposed to appointment of Mr. Jilek due to handling of recent
salary study for City Councilmen. Councilman Tidrick stated he was not opposed to
appointment of Mr. Jilek, but would like to know of vacancies and appointments prior
to regular City Council meetings. He questioned the urgency.
Mayor Linton responded by stating there was a possibility the City may lose another
member on the Civil Service Commission and he felt Mr. Jilek was experienced on
that Board and had served the City well. Further, it would have been highly
inappropriate for him to .submit name of appointment.prior to tonight's meeting when
no one knew who the new Mayor would be.
Councilman Schor defended Mr. Jilek as a conscientious citizen who had devoted
many hours to City service without charge and did not feel his character should
be defamed in public without just cause.

COOPERATIVE USE AGREEMENT - JUMP OFF JOE RADIO FACILITIES: Mr. Adams moved that
the City Manager be authorized to execute agreement on behalf of the City of Pasco.
Seconded by Mr. hunt. Motion carried.
PA.SCO ARCADE: As the. decision has not been handed down from King County 're: Arcades,
and word had been received that tenants of the Pasco Arcade may vacate, the City
Manager asked the Council if they wished to go chasing'after delinquent taxes
when legal fees to do so would probably amount to as much as taxes owed. It was his
recommendation that if the premises were vacated by March 1, 1974, that the City take
no further action to collect outside taxes.
The City Attorney responded by stating that in exchange for vacation of premises, the Cit,
would be settling a disputed matter
The City Manager further responded to the Council that the fees could not be collected
until the court case is resolved, so the money owed is only an assumption of debt,
but would have no effect on Elmo's if the Icing County case supports our City Ordinance.
If the Pasco Arcade were to reopen at another location, the business would be under
the new Ordinance.
Mr. Schor moved that the City of Pasco accept offer of settlement from the Pasco
