A RESOLUTION declaring the Pasco City Council's intent to maintain the
City's policy regarding outside sewer connectwns to be tied to outside
utility agreements that assure and effectuate the annexation or future
annexatwn of the property involved.
WHEREAS, m 1979 the Pasco City Council adopted Ordinance No 2065 which
requires that the provision of water and/or sewer service to real property
outside the City limits be conditioned upon the execution of such documents as
deemed necessary by the City Manager or his designee to assure and effectuate the
annexation or future annexation of the property involved, and
WHEREAS, penodically since that time the Franklin County Board of
Commissioners have initiated discussion with the City to extend City sewer
service to unincorporated West Pasco (Riverview) without annexation or the
signing of documents to assure future annexation of the property served, however
the City has consistently maintained the position set forth m Ordinance No
2065, and
WHEREAS, current proposals by the County Commissioners m negotiations
with the City of Pasco officials for the provision of sewer service to West Pasco
are based upon sewer service without the assurances of annexation or future
annexation required by Ordinance No 2065 and the laws of the State of
Washington, NOW, THEREFORE,
