SUBJECT: Summer School Services Interagency Agreement
I. REFERENCE(S):

II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: I move to approve the Interagency Agreement with Pasco School District
to provide School Resource Officers for the Summer School Program at Pasco and
Chiawana High Schools. June 18 – July 6 and, further, authorize the Mayor to execute
the Agreement.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
Pasco School District Funds - $13,372.80
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
School Resource Officers (SRO) are full-time uniformed police officers primarily
dedicated to providing law enforcement resource services to assigned schools and
surrounding neighborhoods. The Pasco School District has requested an extension of
the SRO services for the 2018 Summer School at Chiawana and Pasco High School.
Normally, SRO services are not provided during summer months; however, as a
proactive measure, the School District has requested SRO services for up to eight hours
each day of summer school. There are 14 summer school days from June 18 to July 6.
SROs are assigned to work normal patrol duties when school is not in session.
V. DISCUSSION:
The proposed Interagency Agreement would be effective June 18 through July 6, 2018
and provide two School Resource Officers for the 2018 Summer School. The School
District will reimburse the City for the salary and fringe benefits costs for two officers
Page 12 of 155
during 14 days of summer school. Council’s approval of the Agreement is all that is
required for the Police Department to proceed.
This item was discussed at the May 29, Workshop meeting. Staff recommends Council
approval.

INTERAGENCY AGREEMENT
Between
Pasco School District No. 1
And
City of Pasco, Washington
This agreement, pursuant to Chapter 39.34 RCW is made and entered into by and between the
Pasco School District No. 1, hereafter referred to as the “District” and the City of Pasco, a
municipal corporation of the State of Washington, hereafter referred to as the “City.”
No special budget or funds are anticipated, nor shall be created. It is not intended that a separate
legal entity be established to conduct this cooperative undertaking, nor is the acquiring, holding,
or disposing of real or personal property other than as specifically provided within the terms of
this Agreement, anticipated. The Chief of Police of the City of Pasco, Washington, shall be
designated as the Administrator of this Interlocal Agreement.
This Agreement shall be filed with the Franklin County Auditor, or alternatively listed by subject
on either parties’ website or other electronically retrievable public source.
It is the purpose of this agreement to:
1. Enhance the safety and security of students, teachers, staff, and visitors and provide
patrol of the various campuses of the District located within the City of Pasco,
Washington.
2. Provide for the presence of armed and uniformed City Police Officers both inside and
outside the school buildings on selected campuses of the District during certain school
hours in support of such safety and security and the maintenance of a secure and peaceful
learning atmosphere.
3. Provide for prevention, intervention, and prompt effective enforcement by the City’s
Police Department in situations involving, but not limited to:
a. Maintenance of order
b. Use, possession, or sale of illegal drugs and alcohol on school premises
c. Crimes against persons
d. Crimes against property
e. Any other situations or activities which require the intervention of law enforcement
officers; and
4. Provide for participation by police officers in the educational activities and role modeling
to foster and enhance knowledge of and respect for law enforcement and law
enforcement officers by students and the community.
5. Provide positive and supportive interface between law enforcement representatives and
the District’s substance abuse and harassment prevention efforts including, but not

responsible for responding to incidents at the other schools as needed during the
overlap period. Each SRO shall make certain that the Administration at their assigned
school is notified when they are required to respond to another school. Generally, the
quickest way to get an SRO to respond to an alternate school will be to call the
Franklin County Emergency Dispatch Center and request an SRO be sent to the
incident at a specific school. Except in incidents where a particular SRO may have
prior knowledge or involvement in a specific case or other extenuating factors, the
on-duty police supervisor will designate which SRO responds.
Office space shall be provided as available at each school for the use of the School
Resource Officer. Such office shall be equipped with one office desk and chair, and

Dedication Deed
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: I move to accept the deed from Denise Gonzalez for a portion of the Burns
Road right-of-way.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
None
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
From approximately the 7700 block to the 8700 block of Burns Road (formerly
Powerline Road), a 25-foot wide PUD easement runs across the northernmost 13 to 14
feet of the properties that abut the street to the south.
In this case, the owner of one of the properties is in the process of obtaining a permit
for a patio cover and as a condition of permit approval, is required to dedicate (per
Resolution 1372) the necessary right-of-way for Burns Road abutting her lot
(approximately 75' in length).
V. DISCUSSION:
A 25-foot wide PUD easement runs across the northernmost 14 feet of the applicant's
Page 29 of 155
property on the outside of the back fence along Burns Road. At some point in the
future, the installation of curb/sidewalk, irrigation, and landscaping along the future
and widened Burns Road will occur within this 14 foot strip.
To allow those improvements to be accomplished, this portion of the property must be
dedicated for future use as municipal right of way.

SUBJECT: General Petty Cash Fund Increase
I. REFERENCE(S):
Resolution
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No. _____, amending Section 3 of
Resolution No. 676, increasing the maximum limit of the General Petty Cash Fund for
the City of Pasco.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
None
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
The purpose of a Petty Cash Fund is to allow for the reimbursement or purchase of
minor items or unanticipated business expenses, where the use of alternative means is
neither feasible (untimely) nor cost effective. The last increase to the General Petty
Cash Fund was authorized by the City Council in May 2006 and resulted in Resolution
No. 2951 which increased the fund to $6,000. The single receipts limit from the Fund
was set at an amount "not to exceed $25." These amounts are no longer adequate to
efficiently and safely operate on a day-to-day basis.
A single receipt reimbursement limit in the amount of $25 is no longer sufficient. As
an example, a lien filing and release through Franklin County is now $37.
Currently the funds available for change are taken from the Customer Service vault.
Change is regularly given out as a significant amount of $20, $50 and $100 dollar bills
are collected from cash paying customers. As the City has decentralized where cash
payments may be made to improve customer service, Recreation, Police Records and
Customer Service now all need change on a regular basis and this need has increased
Page 35 of 155
greatly since 2006.
Since 2006, the Recreation Departments has significantly increased fee activities
throughout the year. Requests for cash reimbursement funds for these activities can
vary depending on the activity and participation. The cost of small items needed
immediately by Recreation has also increased significantly since 2006.
The City of Pasco Police Records Department started taking payments and was given
$350 from the Customers Service vault to fund a cash drawer. This reduced the amount
of on-hand funds available for change.
When Memorial Pool opens for the summer, temporary cash for more cash boxes is
given to Recreation from the Customer Service vault, which further reduces the amount
of available cash during the summer.
Permitting is currently cashiering, but only accepting debit and checks. To allow them
to take cash, more cash boxes will be needed with the planned one-stop permitting
services associated with next phase of the City Hall remodel, which will further deplete
the current funds in the Customer Service vault.
In addition, there is in increased risk anytime large sums of money are transported to
and from the bank. Currently, trips to the bank are made 2-4 times per week,
transporting $800 to $1,100, to obtain change for the cashiers. When the funds
available for change are decreased due to petty cash requests or allocation of funds for
a period of time for Recreation activities, the trips to the bank increase. This increases
the risk of theft or loss of funds by having to make more/multiple bank runs weekly.
V. DISCUSSION:
Based on the increase in fees paid by the City to vendors such as Franklin County and
the need for petty cash for small items, as well as the increase in departments who take
funds from the General Petty Cash Fund, Staff recommends that the amount of the fund
be increased from $6,000 to $7,500 and that the single receipt reimbursement limit be
increased to an amount of $75.
This item was discussed at the May 29, 2018 Council Workshop.

provide smaller denominations of bills and replenish coinage for Customer Service
Representatives, and other departments, throughout the day without having to visit the bank as
frequently for change; and
WHEREAS, it will provide funds to finance the start-up funds of various other Park and
Recreation Department activities throughout the year; and
WHEREAS, it will be of benefit to staff and administration of the Fund to increase the amount
of reimbursement for an approved single receipt to $75.00, previously established in Resolution
No. 2951 in May 2006 at $25.00; and
WHEREAS, it is necessary to increase the amount of cash in the General Petty Cash Fund for
the City of Pasco; and NOW THEREFORE,
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PASCO, DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:

CommentsApril, May, Oct, Nov when taxes are receivedGENERAL FUND REVENUES OVER/UNDER EXPENDITURES: YTD revenue exceed expenditure by $2,969,879 compared to $1,1148,717 in 2017 during the same period. The 2018 year-end projection is for expenditures to exceed revenue by $210,000, mostly due to one time investments being made by the City to move to SEACOMM. At this time, we expect the revenue and expenses to track with budget as planned by the end of the year. Fund Balance reserves help to stabilize operations for unexpected adverse fluctuations in revenue or expenditure actual amounts. $0$5,000$10,000$15,000$20,000$25,000$30,000$35,000$40,000$45,000$50,000JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DECThousands2018 CUMULATIVE GENERAL FUND REVENUE & EXPENDITURES2018 Cumulative Revenue2018 Cumulative Expenditures4‐Yr Average Rev4‐Yr Average ExpPage 45 of 155
GENERAL FUND END FUND BALANCE HISTORY: The City designates the fund balance into two categories, restricted and unrestricted. The unrestricted fund balance represents funds the City sets aside as a stabilization fund, the intent of which is to smooth over unexpected fluctuations in revenues and expenditures. The fund balance is normally built up when revenues exceed expenditures. The 2017 estimated fund balance is expected to be lower than prior year due to accrual of an additional pay period as recommended by State Auditor's Office. This accural was not a standard practice for the City in prior years.Page 46 of 155

IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
In 2003, the Washington State Legislature passed the Municipal Water Supply –
Efficiency Requirements Act, otherwise known as the Municipal Water Law. Under
the rules, utilities are required to develop a Water Use Efficiency (WUE) Program for
approval of comprehensive water system plans and for issuance of water right permits.
In conjunction with the City's current effort to update the Comprehensive Water
System Plan (CWSP), the existing WUE goals are to be evaluated and reestablished,
per WAC 246-290-100 and 246-290-810. The City's consultant, MurraySmith Inc., is
finalizing the draft CWSP for submittal to Washington State Department of Health for
review and approval. The proposed WUE program will become part of the plan once a
resolution defining the updated goals and measures is passed.

APPENDIX 3-B
WATER USE EFFICIENCY PROGRAM
Introduction
This report presents the City of Pasco’s (City) Water Use Efficiency (WUE) Program
applicable for the next six years. In 2003, the Washington State Legislature passed the
Municipal Water Supply – Efficiency Requirements Act, otherwise known as the Municipal
Water Law. The Washington State Department of Health (WDOH) was directed to oversee
and enforce a WUE Program. As a result WDOH adopted the water use efficiency rule,
which became effective in January of 2007. Under the rule utilities are required to develop a
WUE Program for approval of comprehensive water system plans and for issuance of water
right permits.
The water use efficiency rule requires water suppliers to:
Establish water saving goals through a public process
Install service meters within 10 years
Meet a distribution system leakage standard of 10 percent
Develop a WUE program
Evaluate or implement WUE measures to manage water use
Report annually, by July 1, on progress towards meeting goals and using water
efficiently
The Quad City Water Right (QCWR), utilized by the City of Pasco to meet service area
demand, also requires the cities of Pasco, Kennewick, Richland, and West Richland to create
a Regional Water Forecast and Conservation Plan (RWFCP). In January 2016 the latest
edition of the RWFCP was finalized. The RWFCP also addresses water use and conservation
in the City of Pasco.
The City is committed to ensuring its water resources are used efficiently to protect and
preserve the community’s high quality of life for current residents and generations to come.
In keeping with this commitment, the City employs a comprehensive approach to water use
efficiency that combines water system design, engineering, and operations with community
education and outreach. The City’s WUE Program activities affect thousands of its water
utility customers annually. The program engages incentives that encourage wise water use
and utilizes technologies and processes associated with City activities to improve water
savings.
Water Supply Characteristics
The City water system is supplied from surface water withdrawals from the McNary Pool of
the Columbia River. The City’s water rights are not sufficient to meet existing water
demands, as a result the City relies on the QCWR to provide additional water rights to meet
the water system’s demands. The City continues to maximize the use of their individual
Page 54 of 155
15-1710 Page 2 City of Pasco
May 2018 Appendix 3-B Water System Plan
water rights in order to minimize use of the QCWR and the impact on the Columbia River
instream flows.
Two surface water treatment plants that serve the City, the Butterfield Water Treatment Plant
(26.8 mgd) and the West Pasco Water Treatment Plant (6 mgd). Two high service pump
stations supply the water system from these treatment plants.
The water system is divided into three major Pressure Zones, and includes four booster
stations. The existing distribution system consists of approximately 326 miles of water main
ranging in size from less than 6 inches in diameter up to 36 inches in diameter. The majority
of the pipelines are ductile iron.
Three water storage reservoirs are located throughout the service area in addition to the 0.485
million gallon clearwell at the Butterfield Water Treatment Plant and the 1.62 million gallon
clearwell at the West Pasco Water Treatment Plant.
Potable water is used for irrigation by City’s customers in areas without separate irrigation
systems. This WUE addresses domestic and irrigation water conservation for the City’s
potable water system. As part of the City’s proactive approach to management and
conservation of water a City of Pasco, Washington Water Resources Management Plan was
developed in 2014 addressing water use efficiency for the separate irrigation. For more
information on the water supply characteristics see Section 1 of the City of Pasco’s 2018
Comprehensive Water System Plan.
Current WUE Program Description
The City adopted its existing water use efficiency goals and measures, which were
established through a public process by the Pasco City Council in Resolution 3060 in January
2008. Water use efficiency plan development and demand forecasting was developed as part
of the 2008 RWFCP and the City of Pasco’s 2009 Comprehensive Water System Plan.
Information from those documents is presented in this WUE plan to provide a concise WUE
report in compliance with the requirements of WDOH. The 2008 goals and measures
established include the following:
2008 Goals
A residential retrofit program to provide the public with low flow shower heads, toilet
tank displacement bags, leak detection tablets, and other water use efficiency
measures
Perform a water audit program for large water users by December 31, 2010
Perform water use efficiency education in the Pasco School District
Reach a goal of 12 percent or less distribution system leakage by December 31, 2010

emergency.
Public and school education accomplished through informative websites, brochures,
school outreach, and water consumption history on water bills
Distribution System Leakage (DSL) is defined water usage that is not authorized. Water
production, authorized usage, and total usage are used to calculate non-authorized usage.
Although the distribution system is fully metered some authorized uses must be estimated to
calculate DSL. Examples of authorized usage that is not metered may include fire-fighting,
hydrant testing or flushing, and construction use. Under estimates made by the City of these
non-metered authorized uses may contribute to a higher calculated DSL. Over-estimates of
non-metered authorized usage may result in under-estimates of DSL. Table 3-B-1 provides
historical estimated DSL from 2008 to 2014. These values are based on the City’s Total Net
Water provided to the distribution system from sources, and total authorized consumption.
Table 3-B-1 shows that DSL in the City is decreasing and small, calculated negative leakage
values are thought to primarily represent the error involved in estimating authorized non-
metered consumption. DSL is below the 10 percent threshold that would make a water loss
control plan mandatory. The average DSL from 2009 to 2014 excluding negative values was
approximately 2.1 percent. The 2014 DSL was nearly zero.

2014 4,416 4,439 -0.52%
As shown in Table 3-B-2, the year to year change in annual average per capital water
demand has been variable since 2008. From 2009 to 2014 the average annual DSL was
approximately 2.1 percent. The calculated negative DSL in 2011 and 2014 serve as evidence
that some error exists in each year’s estimate, however DSL is overall considered to be
small. 2014 DSL is considered to be insignificant.

separate irrigation on calculated per capita demand isn’t well defined at this time. Data
collection efforts as recommended and described in Section 3 will improve the per capita
data.
Updated Water Use Efficiency Goals
The City is planning to adopt the following updated water use efficiency goals and measures,
which will be established through a public process by the Pasco City Council when the 2018
Comprehensive Water System Plan is approved. These goals and measures replace those
defined in the previous Pasco City Council Resolution 3060, January 2008. The goals and
measures to be established include the following:
Updated Goals
Supply-side goals
o Maintain a DSL at 8 percent or less on an annual basis
o Update the integrated water shortage and drought response plan by 2020
o Continue with regular water meter replacement program
o Implement installation of “Smart Meters”
Demand-side Goals
o Maintain average demand per ERU at 470 gpd per ERU, excluding DSL
through 2022
Page 58 of 155
15-1710 Page 6 City of Pasco
May 2018 Appendix 3-B Water System Plan
o Update large water user water audit program by December 31, 2020
o Encourage the utilization of xeriscaping and specialized turf seed mixes to
lower irrigation water consumption
o Continue to offer Pasco residents retrofit kits that include low flow shower
heads, toilet tank replacement bags, leak detection tablets, and other water use
efficiency measures. The City will phase out this residential retrofit program
before the next planning cycle as the City is close to reaching saturation of its
target audience.
o Continue to perform WUE education in the Pasco School District
o Continue to promote public education on conservation through annual
consumer confidence reports, customer billing statements, and other
educational materials.
The City anticipates that the implementation of these conservation goals will maintain the
level of water use efficiency currently demonstrated throughout the system. During the next
update of the Water System Comprehensive Plan and the Regional Water Forecast and
Conservation Plan, the impact of both the regional conservation goals and those adopted by
the City can be further evaluated.
Table 3-B-4 presents the City Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU) demand. This table
provides support for development of the demand side goal to maintain average demand per
ERU at 470 gpd per ERU, excluding DSL through 2020. The table shows that the calculated
ERU usage from 2008 to 2014 has been decreasing from 486 gallons per day (gpd) to 409
gpd.

May 2018 Appendix 3-B Water System Plan
Updated Water Use Efficiency Measures
As part of the City’s WUE Program the following measures have been implemented or
evaluated. The efficiency measures focus both on supply side and demand side efficiency
measures.
Mandatory Measures
To meet the state WUE requirements there are several mandatory measures. Some of these
measures are mandatory to implement, some are mandatory to evaluate. For measures that
are only mandatory to evaluate, implementation may be used as a selected additional
measure. The following is a summary of mandatory measures, and what the City is doing to
meet them.
Implement Installation of Source Meters: The WTP supply pumps have flow meters
to totalize system supply from each of the City’s water sources.
Implement Installation of Service Meters: The City is fully metered for domestic
water use.
Implement Calibration of Meters: The City does testing and repair or replacement on
service meters on an on-going schedule consistent with manufacturer
recommendations. The City repairs or replaces small meters on a recurring 10-year
schedule. The City has only 14 large meters greater than or equal to 6 inches. All have
been tested. The City of Pasco intends to test and replace large meters according to
the manufacturer’s recommendations. The City is also testing all source meters to
ensure that they meet the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Implement a Water Loss Control Plan if DSL is Over 10 percent: The 7-year period
average distribution leakage for the City of Pasco’s system is currently estimated to
be in the range of near zero to 0.7 percent, which is below the 10 percent threshold.
With DSL below 10 percent, implementation of a water loss control plan is not
mandatory, however a leak repair and replacement program is currently in place.
Implement Water Use Efficiency Education: Educate customers about water use
efficiency at least once per year. Public education is a component of the regional and
individual water conservation plans in the Quad Cities area. In 2007, the Quad Cities
signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Benton-Franklin Health
District (“District”) to develop and implement a water conservation public education
and outreach program for the Quad Cities. When their funding stopped, an agreement
was made with the Franklin Conservation District for the school education and
outreach administered by the City of Kennewick. The Quad Cities partnered with the
District because the District currently conducts water quality education within all of
Benton and Franklin Counties. The Quad Cities and the District will promote
conservation through an annual regional water conservation media campaign which
explains the importance of conservation and provides examples of easy ways to
Page 60 of 155
15-1710 Page 8 City of Pasco
May 2018 Appendix 3-B Water System Plan
conserve. The campaign will include a mix of media types, such as radio, T.V., print,
web, billing stuffers, and press releases, and will focus on water wise irrigation and,
therefore, will be implemented during the irrigation season. Further information on
the components of the partnership program, and a copy of the MOU, can be found in
the 2008 RWFCP.
Evaluate a Rate Structure that Encourages WUE: The current rate structure for the
City can be found in Section 8, Table 8-2. This is a uniform rate structure which
charges the same price per unit of water used. This rate structure does directly link
water supplied to cost of service since users pay for what they use. The City recently
completed a Water, Sewer, Stormwater, and Irrigation Rate Study in 2015. The rate
study recommended a rate increase of 5% to fund operations, capital, and reserves
through 2021. The City has considered an inclining block water rate structure and as
part of the initial evaluation the City looked at the impact to the different customer
classes to avoid cost-of-service inequities. Concerns were risen due to the large
industrial demand within the City related to the food processors which a have a
relatively constant demand. Increasing the cost on these customers will not directly
lead to reduction in water demand without development of a more efficient process.
Thus this rate would be focused primary on the residential customer and encouraging
more efficient use of water during peak demand periods. Therefore, at this time the
City’s elected officials have chosen to not pursue further under the current economic
climate. Additionally, the City is concerned about the potential volatility of revenue
due to an inclining block rate structure and the need for a rate stabilization fund.
Evaluate Reclamation Opportunities: The City has both evaluated and implemented
recycle and reuse opportunities. Currently, reuse water from food processors is being
used for direct irrigation on City owned farm circles at the Process Water Reuse
Facility.
Additional Selected Measures
The City needs to implement or evaluate a minimum of nine additional water use efficiency
measures that support their goals. Based on the City’s records, it currently has low usage and
low DSL so the identified measures are selected to conservatively maintain the City’s current
WUE performance. Some of these measures were defined in Resolution 3060 which was
adopted by the City in January 2008 and have been selected for implementation again in the
next cycle. The following list of measures has been implemented or evaluated.
Utility Financed Retrofit (Residential, Commercial, Multi-Family): The Residential
Appliance Efficiency Program was conducted by the Franklin County PUD in
cooperation with the Bonneville Power Administration. The City fully supported the
program and encouraged users to participate in the showerhead and faucet aerator
replacement. The Franklin County PUD program was completed in 1996. The City
then started a similar program in 2001.

15-1710 Page 9 City of Pasco
May 2018 Appendix 3-B Water System Plan
Since 2009, over 5,200 retrofit devices or leak detection tablet kits have been
distributed to the City’s customers. These may include low flow showerhead inserts,
kitchen or bathroom faucet aerators, toilet tank displacement bags, or leak detection
tablet dye kits. The retrofit program is supported by its inclusion in this WUE
Program. The program is also a requirement of the QCWR.
Water Audits for Commercial Customers: The City completed all water audits for
large water users by April 2008. In 2020, the City will begin the cycle of water audits
of large water users again.
Public Education: The City changed their billing format in September 2000 from a
postcard bill to a full sheet invoice. This new format shows consumptive history and
allows the City to use “bill stuffers” for education on water use efficiency measures
with each billing cycle. Between 2009 and 2014, Pasco has included a water
conservation brochure. Water conservation information was included in the City
Crier. Information was distributed from booths at the Home and Garden Show in
2012, 2013 and 2014, and at the Benton-Franklin County Fair in August 2009.
Outdoor Water Efficiency (Residential, Multi-Family, Commercial): The City is
planning through specific education related to irrigation efficiency to assist customers
in learning best practices to improve outdoor water use efficiency. This could be
considered by highlighting the value of soil moisture or rain shutoff devices that
provide feedback to the automated irrigation system to reduce over watering of green
areas. Additionally, the City may consider an ordinance for outdoor summer watering
restrictions. This would limit the use of water during the heat of the day when most
water that is applied for irrigation is wasted through evaporation.
Implement On-going Pipeline Replacement and Leak Detection: Because the City’s
DSL is below the 10 percent threshold, implementation of a water loss control
program is not mandatory, however an ongoing leak detection and pipeline
replacement program is in place. The leak detection program was initiated in 1998.
The average leak found was 0.25 gpm. Identified leaks were scheduled for repair
using funds from the annual Miscellaneous Water Improvements budget item of
$80,000 per year. In 1995 the City implemented a water pipeline replacement
program to replace leaking pipelines. All known pipelines leaking due to corrosion
have been replaced. The City has replaced 95 percent of all known A/C pipeline.
Factors that may contribute to the existing DSL, include estimates of non-metered
authorized use that are used to calculate DSL. These uses may include water used for
fighting fires, water meter inaccuracies and water used for construction purposes. To
further improve the accuracy of the overall water budget and future estimates of DSL,
improved accounting or metering of these unbilled uses recommended whenever
possible.
Implement Reclamation Opportunities: The City has been an active participant in
recycle and reuse opportunities. Currently, reuse water from food processors is being
Page 62 of 155
15-1710 Page 10 City of Pasco
May 2018 Appendix 3-B Water System Plan
used for direct irrigation on the City owned farm circles at the Process Water Reuse
Facility. Each farm circle currently has associated groundwater rights. With the
substitution of the McNary Pool water from the Columbia River from the Water
Utility on the farm circles, the quantity of groundwater applied to the farm circles is
reduced, and there is no net increase in the collective water rights used due to the food
processing plant operation. The City also considered direct reuse to the water
treatment plant but the level of treatment required and the cost benefit did not
balance.
Evaluate the use of “Smart Meters”: Automated Meter Reading (AMR) can support
water use efficiency in several ways. The timing of water usage for individual
customers can be captured through automated meter reading and used to identify
water inefficiencies such as irrigation during non-ideal times of day. The sensitivity
of available data from AMR can be used to identify customer usage patterns that
never reach zero, suggesting a customer side leak. AMR is often cost effective, saving
the water utility in operating costs over time and can be implemented in phases.
Evaluation of the costs and savings associated with AMR for Pasco, as well as
potential water efficiency benefits will be completed before the next planning cycle.
Evaluation of Xeriscaping (Residential, Multi-Family, Commercial): The City has
considered implementing a xeriscaping education program as a water use efficiency
measure for commercial, residential, and multi-family landscaping. The program
would offer free classes on xeriscaping to interested customers and include funding
from the City of Pasco for 50 percent of the cost of the conversion to xeriscaping
landscaping. Based on an assumed annual 1-acre residential and 5-acre multi-family
and commercial conversion to xeriscaping landscaping, the savings would be
approximately 12.5 million gallons per year, or 1/2 percent of total 2007 production.
The cost to the City of Pasco of such a program would be approximately $483,560.
This cost is based on paying the fees for two instructors for a 3-day class (assuming
fees of $50 per hour), covering travel costs of $1,000 per instructor, and contributing
approximately $43,560 for each acre landscaped. The cost of the water saved through
this program, based on a cost of $0.0013 per gallon of water produced, would total
approximately $15,104, per year, for 11-acres of xeriscaping landscaping. The City of
Pasco has elected not to implement this water use efficiency measure at this time,
because it feels that this money could be better spent on water use efficiency
measures that would reach more customers or address system-wide efficiency issues.
Xeriscaping Ordinance: The City of Pasco has addressed Xeriscaping and the use of
water efficient landscaping in PMC Title 25.75 Landscaping and Screening. This
ordinance describes requirements for xeriscape areas that may use alternate forms of
irrigation, low-water demand turf grasses and plant materials, as well as other ground
covers.
The over-all projected average annual water usage takes into account historical water
savings. Historical water use rates based on historical measures were used to project future

Description of Program Evaluation Process
The City staff evaluates the WUE program’s effectiveness annually through the yearly
reporting process required by the WUE regulations. To support this reporting the City of
Pasco maintains monthly records, which allows them to monitor trends on water use,
distribution leakage, and information related to incentives. The City’s water supply planning
efforts related to the RWFCP are updated on a biannual basis. This allows for updates to
modify or include new water use efficiency measures to change water demand projections.

III. FISCAL IMPACT:
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
At the meeting of May 29, Mark Morrissette, President of the Board of Directors of the
Pasco Public Facility District (PFD), presented the annual report of the PFD. During
the presentation, it was noted that the PFD is the only one of the City's Boards or
Commissions for which a term limit (three consecutive, full, four-year terms) applies.
The limit was included in the PFD Charter when the District was initially formed in
2002. It was also noted that, given the long history of the Board in working withi n the
region to determine what appropriate public projects should be identified for possible
submission to the voters, some continuity and history of Board activities would be
important to maintain on the panel.
Following discussion, it was requested of staff to provide information necessary to
formally consider an amendment of the term limiting requirement.
V. DISCUSSION:
The attached, proposed ordinance provides for amending the PFD Charter to remove
the term limit language. The Charter is presented in its entirety as Restated Charter
Page 67 of 155
(June 2018) in order to avoid confusion with the original document.
Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance.

IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
On April 19, 2018 the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing to determine
whether or not to recommend approval for the location of a dwelling unit on the second
floor of a barber shop in a C-1 zone at 613 W Clark St.
Dwelling units above ground floor commercial uses are allowed in the C-1 zoning
district through approval of a Special Permit.
Following the conduct of a public hearing the Planning Commission reasoned it would
be appropriate to recommend approval of the Special Permit with conditions as
contained in the May 17, 2018 staff report.
Page 79 of 155
No written appeal of the Planning Commission's recommendation was received.
V. DISCUSSION:
The applicant is proposing to construct a two-story commercial building consisting of a
barber shop on the first floor and a dwelling unit on the second. Additional parking
spaces will be included in the construction.
The first floor will contain the barber shop space, a break room, and a bathroom. The
second floor will contain three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and dining room.

REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION
MASTER FILE NO: SP 2018-004 APPLICANT: Leticia Marin Arroyo
HEARING DATE: 4/19/2018 3324 W 19th Ave TRL# 37
ACTION DATE: 5/17/2018 Kennewick, WA 99338
BACKGROUND
REQUEST: SPECIAL PERMIT: Location of a dwelling unit on the second floor
of a barber shop in a C-1 zoning district.
1. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION:
Legal: Lots 25 & 26, Block 10, Gerry’s Addition
General Location: 613 W Clark St
Property Size: 7,000 square feet
2. ACCESS: The site is accessible from W Clark St and an alley that
connects 5th Ave and 6th Ave.
3. UTILITIES: All municipal utilities are currently available to serve the site.
4. LAND USE AND ZONING: The site is currently zoned C-1 (Retail
Business) and does not contain any structures. Surrounding properties
are zoned and developed as follows:
NORTH: R-1 – SFDUs
SOUTH: R-2 – Commercial
EAST: C-1 – SFDU, commercial
WEST: C-1 – SFDU, commercial
5. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates this area
as commercial. The plan does not specifically address the location of
residences above the ground level in the commercial zones; however
policies of the plan can be applied to this situation. Policy H-1-A
encourages the location of medium density residential uses near shopping
and employment centers. Policy H-2-A suggests a full range of housing
environments should be provided. This plan also suggests that residential
use should be in close proximity to the downtown area to support the
service related business of the core.
6. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The City of Pasco is the lead
agency for this project. Based on the SEPA checklist, the adopted City
Comprehensive Plan, City development regulations, and other
information, a threshold determination resulting in a Determination of
Page 83 of 155
2
Non-Significance (DNS) has been issued for this project under WAC 197-
11-158.
ANALYSIS
The applicant is seeking a special permit to allow a dwelling unit on the second
floor of a proposed barber shop. The Pasco Municipal Code (PMC) 25.42.040 [1]
contains a provision allowing dwelling units on the second floor of commercial
buildings in C-1 zones with special permit approval. The PMC also requires
that the main floor of the building be designed or intended for a use permitted
within the C-1 zone.
In the C-1 zone, a building may be used as a motel (short-term occupancy) or a
commercial/office building. Motel/hotel use requires a state license, which
enables the State of Washington to collect taxes on transient rental income.
According to the Washington Department of Revenue, “transient rental income
is income received from any guest, resident, or other occupant to whom lodging
and other services are furnished under a license to use real property for less
than 30 continuous days.” However, for long-term residential use the applicant
must obtain a Special Permit, obtain a City of Pasco rental dwelling license,
and residential units may not be located on the ground floor.
The applicant plans on creating six parking spaces designated for the barber
shop and the dwelling unit on the second floor. At its maximum, the barber
shop may generate only approximately 5 vehicle trips at its peak hour on
Saturdays. The first floor will contain the barber shop space, a break room,
and a bathroom, and the upper floor dwelling unit will contain three bedrooms,
two bathrooms, a kitchen, and a dining room. Considering that residentially-
zoned lots are located in the general vicinity, this use conforms to the character
of the neighborhood.
INITIAL STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT
Findings of fact must be entered from the record. The following are initial
findings drawn from the background and analysis section of the staff report.
The Planning Commission may add additional findings to this listing as the
result of factual testimony and evidence submitted during the open record
hearing.
1. The site is zoned C-1 (Retail Business).
2. Office, retail, and motel uses may all be located in C-1 zones.
3. The site is currently an empty lot.
Page 84 of 155
3
4. The applicant intends to construct a barber shop with a dwelling unit on
the second floor.
5. Residential uses other than short-duration hotel/motel occupancies are
allowed in commercial zones only with a Special Permit and only above
the first floor
6. Six parking spaces will be created.
7. It is estimated that the use will generate around 5 vehicle trips at peak
hour on Saturdays.
CONCLUSIONS BASED ON INITIAL STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT
Before recommending approval or denial of a special permit the Planning
Commission must develop findings of fact from which to draw its conclusions
based upon the criteria listed in P.M.C. 25.86.060. The criteria are as follows:
(1) Will the proposed use be in accordance with the goals, policies, objectives
and text of the Comprehensive Plan?
The site is designated for commercial uses by the Comprehensive Plan.
The plan does not specifically address the location of dwelling units
within the C-1 zone, however policies of the plan suggest that residential
use should be in close proximity to the downtown area to support the
service related business of the core.
(2) Will the proposed use adversely affect public infrastructure?
The demands of this proposal on the public infrastructure are negligible
in comparison to the demands of the allowed uses in the area. The
required municipal utilities are sized to accommodate demands of a
greater intensity than this proposal will place upon the systems.
(3) Will the proposed use be constructed, maintained and operated to be in
harmony with existing or intended character of the general vicinity?
Barber shops are permitted uses in C-1 zones. The use will not disrupt
the character of the vicinity.
(4) Will the location and height of proposed structures and the site design
discourage the development of permitted uses on property in the general
vicinity or impair the value thereof?
The proposal involves constructing a building 24 feet tall, which is
permitted according to the PMC.
Page 85 of 155
4
(5) Will the operations in connection with the proposal be more objectionable to
nearby properties by reason of noise, fumes, vibrations, dust, traffic, or
flashing lights than would be the operation of any permitted uses within
the district?
The proposal is less intensive than many of the uses permitted in the C-1
zoning district and would generate far less noise, light, glare and other
permitted uses.
(6) Will the proposed use endanger the public health or safety if located and
developed where proposed, or in any way become a nuisance to uses
permitted in the district?
A residence located in this commercial area is much less intensive than
most uses allowed in the C-1 district. There is little chance the use will
become a nuisance.
APPROVAL CONDITIONS
1) The special permit shall apply to 613 W Clark Street (Parcel #112054385)
2) A 10-foot landscaping strip of 65% live vegetation must be installed along
the front property line adjacent to W Clark Street.
3) A maximum of one (1) dwelling unit on the second floor shall be
permitted;
4) The special permit shall be null and void if a City of Pasco building
permit has not been obtained by December 31, 2019.
RECOMMENDATION
MOTION for Findings of Fact: I move to adopt Findings of Fact and
Conclusions therefrom as contained in the May 17, 2018 staff report.
MOTION for Recommendation: I move, based on the Findings of
Fact and Conclusions therefrom, the Planning Commission recommend
the City Council grant a special permit to Leticia Marin Arroyo for the
location of a dwelling unit on the second floor of a barber shop in a C-1
zoning district at 613 W Clark St with conditions as contained in the May
17, 2018 staff report.

the site contains residential and commercial lots so the use is congruent with the
neighborhood and consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
There were no public comments and the public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Bykonen stated that she was happy to see new construction for mixed
use.
Chairwoman Roach agreed with Commissioner Bykonen.
Commissioner Greenaway moved, seconded by Commissioner Bowers, to close the

Kennewick, WA 99338
BACKGROUND
REQUEST: Preliminary Plat: Havencourt Meadows, (27-Lot Single-Family
Subdivision).
1. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION:
Legal: Portion of the South half of the Southwest quarter of the
Southeast quarter of Section 22, Township 9 North, Range 29 East, W.M.
General Location: Between Road 56 and Road 60 north of W Court St
Property Size: 17.98 Acres
Number of Lots Proposed: 27 single-family lots
Square Footage Range of Lots: 22,974 ft² to 30,230 ft²
Average Lot Square Footage: 24,087 ft²
2. ACCESS: The property will have access from Road 56 and Road 60.
3. UTILITIES: Water service is located in W Court St, Road 56, and Road
60. City sewer is not available in the area.
4. LAND USE AND ZONING: The site is zoned RS-20 (Suburban
Residential). Surrounding properties are zoned and developed as follows:
NORTH: RS-20 – SFDUs and Pastures
SOUTH: RS-20 – SFDUs
EAST: RS-20 – SFDUs and Pastures
WEST RS-20 – SFDUs
5. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan indicates the site is
intended for mixed-residential and mixed-residential commercial
development. According to the Comprehensive Plan, mixed-residential
development means 5 to 20 dwelling units per acre, and mixed-
residential commercial allows for commercial uses interspersed with
residential. The criteria for allocation under the future land use section
of Volume II of the Comprehensive Plan (Vol. II, page 17) encourages
development of lands designated for residential uses in locations suitable
for home sites, convenient to major circulation routes, and when there is
a market demand for new home sites. Policy H-1-E encourages the
advancement of home ownership, and Goal H-2 suggests the City strive
to maintain a variety of housing options for residents of the community.
Page 108 of 155

Goal LU-2 encourages the maintenance of established neighborhoods
and the creation of new neighborhoods that are safe and enjoyable places
to live.
6. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: Based on the SEPA checklist, the
adopted City Comprehensive Plan, City development regulations,
testimony at the public hearing and other information, a Determination
of Non-Significance (DNS) has been issued for this project (WAC 197-11-
355).
ANALYSIS
The project site is located between Roads 56 and 60 just north of W Court St; it
includes approximately 18 acres and, when finished, will create 27 new single-
family lots zoned RS-20. All lots will be over 22,000 square feet in size. The
applicant is seeking preliminary plat approval in preparation for the
development of this single-family subdivision.
The site was annexed into the City in 2013 when it was designated an RS-20
zoning district. Currently, there are six parcels making up the project site that
have been previously used for agriculture. While there are no structures
located on these six parcels, there is a single house in its own parcel located
within the project site that has an address on W Court St. The preliminary plat
will not include this parcel.
The proposed plat will provide additional lots within the Urban Growth Area
(UGA) for single-family homes consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
LOT LAYOUT: The proposed plat contains 27 residential lots. The lots vary in
size from 22,974 square feet to 30,230 square feet. The average lot size is
24,087 square feet. The proposal is consistent with the density requirements of
the RS-20 zoning on the site. The minimum lot size for the RS-20 zone is
20,000 square feet. However, given the proposed location on a major arterial
road, a greater residential density may be more appropriate.
RIGHTS-OF-WAY: All lots have frontage on streets which will be dedicated.
This project includes the development of a road connecting Road 56 to Road 60
in addition to two cul-de-sacs.
UTILITIES: Municipal water service will need to be extended through the site
to connect to the water service in Roads 56 and 60. The nearest sewer line to
the site is located 2,350 feet to the south in Sylvester Street. However, the
Comprehensive Sewer Plan indicates eight inch sewer lines are to be installed
in both Road 56 and Road 60. These lines will drain north (not south) to a
Page 109 of 155

future lift station that will be located on Road 56 about 1,700 north of Court
Street.
The Benton-Franklin Health District is scheduled to test the site during the
third week of April to determine septic tank conditions. The overall number of
lots within the plat could change slightly but the street layout will remain the
same. The developer will be required to obtain all Heath District’s approval
prior to construction on the plat similar to receive engineering department
approval for sewer line extensions prior to construction activities.
Ordinance 4229 establishing sewer wavier conditions found in PMC 16.040
recognized certain areas within the City do not readily have access to sewer
service (Lines more than 200 feet away) or functioning lift station. In these
situations home construction is permitted provide a waiver to the sewer
connection requirement is granted. Waivers are typically granted under a list
of conditions including participation in future sewer LID’s.
The City Engineer will determine the specific placement of fire hydrants and
streetlights when construction plans are submitted. As a general rule, fire
hydrants are located at street intersections and with a maximum interval of
500 feet between hydrants on alternating sides of the street. Streetlights are
located at street intersections, with a maximum interval of less than 300 feet
on residential streets, and with a maximum interval of 150 feet on arterial
streets. The intervals for street light placements are measure along the
centerline of the road. Street lights are placed on alternating sides of the street.
STREET NAMES: The proposed street names have been labeled on the plat.
IRRIGATION: The municipal code requires the installation of irrigation lines as
part of the infrastructure improvements. The owner/developer shall be
required to comply with RCW 5817.310, including the installation of
infrastructure for the delivery of irrigation water to each of the newly formed
lots.
WATER RIGHTS: The assignment of water rights is a requirement for
subdivision approval per Pasco Municipal Code Section 26.04.115(B) and
Section 3.07.160. If no water rights are available to transfer to the City the
property owner/developer must pay a water right fee in lieu thereof.
FINDINGS OF FACT
State law (RCW 58.17.010) and the Pasco Municipal Code require the Planning
Commission to develop Findings of Fact as to how this proposed subdivision
will protect and enhance the health, safety and general welfare of the
community. The following is a listing of proposed "Findings of Fact:"
Page 110 of 155
4
Prevent Overcrowding: Density requirements of the RS-20 zone are designed
to address overcrowding concerns. The Comprehensive Plan suggests the
property in question be developed with 5 to 20 dwelling units per acre. The
proposed Plat has a density of approximately 1.5 units per acre. Considering
this, a greater residential density may be better suited for this location,
especially since W Court St is a major arterial. No more than 40 percent of
each lot is permitted to be covered with structures per the RS-20 standards.
Parks Opens Space/Schools: There are no City parks in the immediate
vicinity however. A park impact fee will be assessed at the time permits are
issued for each house in the subdivision to help cover the cost of future parks.
The City is required by RCW 58.17.110 to make a finding that adequate
provisions are being made to ameliorate the impacts of the proposed
subdivision on the School District. At the request of the School District the City
enacted a school impact fee in 2012. The imposition of this impact fee
addresses the requirement to ensure there are adequate provisions for schools.
A school impact fee in the amount of $4,700 will be charged for each new
dwelling unit at the time of building permit issuance.
Effective Land Use/Orderly Development: The plat is laid out for single-
family development which is permitted in the Comprehensive Plan. The
maximum density permitted under the mixed-residential designation according
to the Comprehensive Plan is 20 dwelling units per acre. The developer is
proposing a density of 1.5 units per acre. This is well under the minimum
number of dwelling units per acre, and Staff believes the site may be better
utilized with a greater residential density.
Safe Travel & Walking Conditions: The plat will connect to the community
through the existing network of streets. Sidewalks are installed at the time
homes are built on individual lots. The sidewalks will be constructed to current
City standards and to the standards of the American’s with Disabilities Act
(ADA). The ADA ramps at the corners of all intersection will be installed with
the construction of the road improvements.
Adequate Provision of Municipal Services: All lots within the Plat will be
provided with a looped water system meeting City standards. However, the lift
station and other infrastructure necessary to provide sewer to the property
does not yet exists and is not included in the current Capital Improvement
Plan. Ordinance 4229 recognized there were situations in recently annexed
areas were sewer service was not readily available and provisions were made in
said ordinance for waiver procedures. The developers will need to bind the
property and future owners to participation in future LID’s for sewer line
Page 111 of 155
5
construction in the neighborhood. A non-protest agreement will be needed
prior to final plat approval.
Provision of Housing for State Residents: This Preliminary Plat contains 27
residential building lots, providing an opportunity for the construction of 27
new dwelling units in Pasco.
Adequate Air and Light: The maximum lot coverage limitations, building
height restrictions and building setbacks will assure that adequate movement
of air and light is available to each lot.
Proper Access & Travel: The streets through and adjoining the Plat will be
paved and developed to City standards to assure proper access is maintained
to each lot. Connections to the community will be provided by Roads 56 and
60. The Preliminary Plat was submitted to the Transit Authority for review (The
discussion under “Safe Travel” above applies to this section also).
Comprehensive Plan Policies & Maps: The Comprehensive Plan designates
the Plat site for mixed-residential and mixed-residential commercial
development. Policies of the Comprehensive Plan encourage the advancement
of home ownership and suggest the City strive to maintain a variety of housing
for residents.
Other Findings:
• The site is within the Pasco Urban Growth Boundary.
• The State Growth Management Act requires urban growth and urban
densities to occur within the Urban Growth Boundaries.
• The site is relatively flat.
• The site is currently vacant.
• The site is not considered a critical area, a mineral resource area or a
wetland.
• The Comprehensive Plan identifies the site for mixed-residential and
mixed-residential commercial development.
• Mixed-residential development is described in the Comprehensive Plan as
five to twenty dwelling units per acre.
• The site is zoned RS-20 (Suburban Residential).
• The developer is proposing 1.5 dwelling units per acre.
• The minimum number of dwelling units per acre is 5 according to the
Comprehensive Plan.
• The Housing Element of the Comprehensive Plan encourages the
advancement of programs that promote home ownership and
development of a variety of residential densities and housing types.
Page 112 of 155

• The Transportation Element of the Comprehensive Plan encourages the
interconnection of neighborhood streets to provide for the disbursement
of traffic.
• The interconnection of neighborhood streets is necessary for utility
connections (looping) and the provision of emergency services.
• Per the ITE Trip Generation Manual 8th Addition the proposed
subdivision, when fully developed, will generate approximately 270
vehicle trips per day.
• The current traffic impact fee is $709 per dwelling unit. The impact fees
are collected at the time permits are issued and said fees are used to
make traffic improvements and add traffic signals in the I-182 Corridor
when warranted.
• The current park impact fee is $1,420 per dwelling unit. The fee can be
reduced by 58 percent if a developer dedicates a five acre park site to the
City. The dedication of a fully constructed park reduces the fee by 93
percent.
• RCW 58.17.110 requires the City to make a finding that adequate
provisions have been made for schools before any preliminary plat is
approved.
• The City of Pasco has adopted a school impact fee ordinance compelling
new housing developments to provide the School District with mitigation
fees. The fee was effective April 16, 2012.
• Past correspondence from the Pasco School District indicates impact fees
address the requirement to ensure adequate provisions are made for
schools.
• Plat improvements within the City of Pasco are required to comply with
the 2015 Standard Drawings and Specification as approved by the City
Engineer. These improvements include but are not limited to water,
sewer and irrigation lines, streets, street lights and storm water
retention. The handicapped-accessible pedestrian ramps are completed
with the street and curb improvements prior to final plat approval.
Sidewalks are installed at the time permits are issued for new houses,
except sidewalks along major streets, which are installed with the street
improvements.
• Water lines and fire hydrants are required to be looped.
• Per PMC 12.36.050 the developer must extend all utilities to and through
the subject parcel or obtain a waiver for sewer line installation as
provided in Ordinance 4229. In this case sewer service for the property
must mostly flow to the north away from Court Street to a future lift
station on Road 56. None of the necessary infrastructure to the north of
property including the lift station exists. The Comprehensive Sewer Plan
indicates eight inch sewer lines are to be installed in both Road 56 and
Road 60 flowing north. These lines are to drain north (not south) to a
Page 113 of 155
7
future lift station that will be located on Road 56 about 1,700 north of
Court Street.
• Ordinance 4229 establishing sewer wavier conditions found in PMC
16.040 recognized certain areas within the City do not readily have
access to sewer service (Lines more than 200 feet away) or functioning lift
station. In these situations home construction is permitted provide a
waiver to the sewer connection requirement is granted. Waivers are
typically granted under a list of conditions including participation in
future sewer LID’s.
• The developer will be required to obtain all Heath District’s approval prior
to construction on the plat similar to receive engineering department
approval for sewer line extensions prior to construction activities.
• All engineering designs for infrastructure and final plat(s) drawings are
required to utilize the published City of Pasco Vertical Control Datum.
• All storm water generated from a developed plat is required to be
disposed of per City and State codes and requirements. Prior to the City
of Pasco accepting construction plans for review the developer is required
to enter into a Storm Water Maintenance Agreement with the City. The
developer is responsible for obtaining the signatures of all parties
required on the agreement and to have the agreement recorded with the
Franklin County Auditor. The original signed and recorded copy of the
agreement is presented to the City of Pasco at the intake meeting for
construction plans.
• Storm water runoff and infiltration calculations must comply with the
Storm Water Management Manual for Easter Washington, they must be
provided for review and approval. Storm water calculations must be
prepared, stamped, signed and dated by a currently licensed Professional
Engineer registered in the State of Washington.
• The assignment of water rights is a requirement for subdivision approval
per Pasco Municipal Code Section 26.04.115(B) and Section 3.07.160.
• The developer is responsible for all costs associated with construction,
inspection, and plan review service expenses incurred by the City
Engineering Office.
• The developer is responsible for installing irrigation lines, which shall be
installed per City of Pasco Standard Detail 3-1.
• The City has nuisance regulations (PMC 9.60) that require property
owners (including developers) to maintain their properties in a manner
that does not injure, annoy, or endanger the comfort and repose of other
property owners. This includes controlling dust, weeds and litter during
times of construction for both subdivisions and buildings including
houses.
• Prior to acceptance of final plats developers are required to prepare and
submit record drawings. All record drawings shall be created in
accordance with the requirements detailed in the Record Drawing
Page 114 of 155
8
Requirements and Procedure form provided by the Engineering Division.
This form must be signed by the developer prior to construction plan
approval.
• The Benton Franklin Health District has yet to approve this plat as
submitted. City approval of the plat will be contingent upon Health
District approval.
• The final plat will contain 10-foot utility easements parallel to all streets.
Additional easement will be provided as needed by utility providers.
• To properly serve the proposed subdivision one or more Pressure
reducing valves may be needed. The design and installation of which is
typically the responsibility of the developer.
CONCLUSIONS BASED ON INITIAL STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT
Before recommending approval or denial of the proposed Plat the Planning
Commission must develop findings of fact from which to draw its conclusion
(P.M.C. 26.24.070) therefrom as to whether or not:
(1) Adequate provisions are made for the public health, safety and
general welfare and for open spaces, drainage ways, streets, alleys,
other public ways, water supplies, sanitary wastes, parks,
playgrounds, transit stops, schools and school grounds, sidewalks for
safe walking conditions for students and other public needs;
The proposed plat will be required to develop under the standards of the Pasco
Municipal Code and the standard specifications of the City Engineering
Division. These standards for streets, sidewalks, and other infrastructure
improvements were designed to ensure the public health; safety and general
welfare of the community are secured. These standards include provisions for
streets, drainage, water and sewer service and the provision for dedication of
right-of-way. The preliminary plat was forwarded to the PUD, the Pasco School
District, Cascade Gas, Charter Cable, franklin County Irrigation District and
Ben-Franklin Transit Authority for review and comment.
The property is located in an area of the City that was annexed in 2013 and
currently lacks sewer service. The Comprehensive Sewer Plan indicates eight
inch sewer lines are to be installed in both Road 56 and Road 60 flowing north.
These lines will drain north (not south) to a future lift station that will be
located on Road 56 about 1,700 north of Court Street. None of the sewer
infrastructure is currently available. Ordinance 4229 recognized the fact that
certain areas of the City do not have sewer service readily available. In this
case connection to a sewer system is not physically or economically feasible.
Ordinance 4229 contains a waiver process the anticipated development
occurring in areas that cannot presently be served by the city’s sewer system.
Page 115 of 155
9
The wavier conditions require the property owners to agree to future LID’s to
construct sewer line through the neighborhood. Signing such an agreement
will be a requirement of final plat approval. In addition to insure public health
and safety are met the developer must comply with all conditions and
requirements for the Benton Franklin Health District for the installation of
septic systems.
Based on the School Districts Capital Facilities Plan the City collects school
mitigation fees for each new dwelling unit. The fee is paid at the time of
building permit issuance. The school impact fee addresses the requirements of
RCW 58.17.110. All new developments participate in establishing parks
through the payment of park fees at the time of permitting.
(2) The proposed subdivision contributes to the orderly development and
land use patterns in the area;
The proposed Plat makes efficient use of vacant land and will provide for the
looping of utilities and interconnectivity of streets as supported in the
Comprehensive Plan.
(3) The proposed subdivision conforms to the policies, maps and
narrative text of the Comprehensive Plan;
The Comprehensive Plan land use map designates the site for mixed-residential
and mixed-residential commercial development. Mixed-residential development
is described as 5 to 20 dwelling units per acre in the Comprehensive Plan.
However, the applicant proposes approximately 1.5 dwelling units per acre,
which is well below the minimum. The Housing Element of the Plan encourages
the promotion of a variety of residential densities and suggests the community
should support the advancement of programs encouraging home ownership.
The Transportation Element of the Plan suggests major streets should be
beautified with trees and landscaping. The Plan also encourages the
interconnection of local streets for inter-neighborhood travel for public safety
as well as providing for traffic disbursement.
(4) The proposed subdivision conforms to the general purposes of any
applicable policies or plans which have been adopted by the City
Council;
Development plans and policies have been adopted by the City Council in the
form of the Comprehensive Plan. The proposed subdivision conforms to the
policies, maps and narrative text of the Plan as noted in number three above.
(5) The proposed subdivision conforms to the general purposes of the
subdivision regulations.
Page 116 of 155
10
The general purposes of the subdivision regulations have been enumerated and
discussed in the staff analysis and Findings of Fact. The Findings of Fact
indicate the subdivision is in conformance with the general purposes of the
subdivision regulations provided certain mitigation measures (i.e., school
impact fees are paid).
(6) The public use and interest will be served by approval of the proposed
subdivision.
The proposed Plat, if approved, will be developed in accordance with all City
standards designed to ensure the health, safety and general welfare of the
community are met. The Comprehensive Plan will be implemented through
development of this Plat. These factors will ensure the public use and interest
are served.

PUBLIC HEARINGS:
D. Preliminary Plat Havencourt Meadows, 27-lots (Knutzen
Engineering) (MF# PP 2018-002)
Chairwoman Roach read the master file number and asked for comments from staff.
Darcy Bourcier, Planner I, discussed the preliminary plat application for Havencourt
Meadows, 27-lots. The site is zoned RS-20 and would require 20,000 sqft minimum
lot sizes. The smallest proposed lot in this plat would be 23,000 sqft. This plat
includes 18 acres located between Road 56 and Road 60. The area was annexed into
the City in 2013 and has been used for agriculture. An estate fence will be required
along Court Street but there will be no room for landscaping so only a sidewalk will be
required. There is no sewer available so the homes will be on septic systems, however
the Comprehensive Sewer Plan does indicate that there will eventually be a lift station
on Road 56 sometime in the future. If that’s the case and the homeowner’s get a
utility waiver, with a condition that they may have to participate in a future LID to
install sewer if it’s made available with that sewer station.
Commissioner Bowers asked for clarification on some of the parcels on the plat.
Ms. Bourcier provided clarification.
Chairwoman Roach asked for clarification on the lift station nearby.
Ms. Bourcier responded that there is not a lift station at this time but there is one
proposed in the Comprehensive Sewer Plan but there is no indication on when that
will be.
Commissioner Myhrum asked why the density in the proposal is much less than what
the Comprehensive Plan calls for and what ramifications would that have.
Ms. Bourcier replied that he was correct and that the City would probably benefit from
a greater density in that area due to its location off of Court Street, a major arterial.
The Comprehensive Plan has the area as mixed-residential with 5-20 dwelling units
per acre. The City would allow denser development and the area would likely benefit
from that.
Rick White, Community & Economic Development Director, added that there are
several things going on. The Comprehensive Plan has this area as higher density, the
existing zoning, however, is RS-20. That is because there aren’t utility services – there
isn’t sewer available. This is a problem the City will be up against every time the
former Riverview Area is platted. There will be many plats with 5-12 lots and will
likely be zoned RS-20 because that was the commitment given to the citizens when it
Page 128 of 155
was annexed years ago to maintain the rural character. As time goes by, this will be
something the Commissioners will have to keep an eye on because with the growth
and projections estimated for the City, it will be hard to find room for 50,000 new
citizens. The more people that can be placed in areas like this, right in the middle of
town, the better off the City will be. It’s particularly problematic that the density is
only 1 ½ units per aces for this particular plat. It is a problem and it will be repeated
unless there is a wholesale zoning campaign to make denser zoning in the Riverview
Island Area which is very unlikely.
Michael Morales, Deputy Community & Economic Development Director, added on the
topic of maintaining the “rural character”. He stated that rural character is what is
found in Benton City or West Richland – 1 to 3 acres. When there is a subdivision,
that is no longer rural character, it is an urban area and urban standards need apply.
Otherwise you will have problems years down the road when future developers want to
split up the parcels and develop and you may have flag lots or panhandle lots, etc.
Nathan Machiela, 5453 Ridgeline Drive, Kennewick, WA spoke on his application. He
was in agreement with the approval conditions. He addressed the issues brought up
with the density. The previous owner of this projects had owned the property for over
10 years and was hoping to do some multi-family/commercial development in
accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. Developers would love to maximize the
amount of lots on a property but unfortunately, the City is not in the position to
install the sanitary sewer all the way to the project, nor are they in a condition to
install the sanitary sewer lift station that would be required to serve the property. If
the City wants denser development in this area, there would have to be steps the City
would have to take in order to prepare the infrastructure to serve the property. The
cost would be too prohibitive for the developer to put in this infrastructure.
Chairwoman Roach addressed the density issues and history of the Riverview Area.
The public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Greenaway stated that the Planning Commission did make a promise to
keep the Riverview Area as rural as possible.
Commissioner Bowers moved, seconded by Commissioner Greenaway, to close the
public hearing on the proposed preliminary plat and set May 17, 2018 as the date for
deliberations and the development of a recommendation for the City Council. The
motion passed unanimously.

REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION
MASTER FILE NO: PP 2018-003
HEARING DATE: 4/19/2018
ACTION DATE: 5/17/2018
APPLICANT: Kevin Denhoed
900 E Reata Rd
Kennewick, WA 99338
BACKGROUND
REQUEST: Preliminary Plat: Morehouse Addition, (20-Lot Single-Family
Subdivision).
1. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION:
Legal: Portion of the SE Quarter of Section 23, T9N, R29E, WM
General Location: SW corner of Road 36 and Pearl Street
Property Size: 4.55 Acres
Number of Lots Proposed: 20 single-family lots
Square Footage Range of Lots: 7,216 ft² to 9,810 ft²
Average Lot Square Footage: 7,775ft²
2. ACCESS: The property will have access from Road 36. Due to the lot lay
out access to Pearl Street will be restricted as the result of common
fencing/wall.
3. UTILITIES: Municipal water and sewer service is both Road 36 and
Pearl Street.
4. LAND USE AND ZONING: The site is zoned R-1 (Low-Density
Residential). Surrounding properties are zoned and developed as follows:
NORTH: R-S 12 – Single Family
SOUTH: R-1 – Single-Family
EAST: R-1 – Single Family
WEST R-1 – Mark Twain Elementary School
5. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan indicates the site is
intended for low-density residential development. According to the
Comprehensive Plan, low-density residential development means 2 to 5
dwelling units per acre. The criteria for allocation under the future land
use section of Volume II of the Comprehensive Plan (Vol. II, page 17)
encourages development of lands designated for low-density residential
uses when or where sewer is available; the location is suitable for home
sites; and there is a market demand for new home sites. Policy H-1-E
encourages the advancement of home ownership, and Goal H-2 suggests
the City strive to maintain a variety of housing options for residents of
the community. Goal LU-2 encourages the maintenance of established
Page 139 of 155
2
neighborhoods and the creation of new neighborhoods that are safe and
enjoyable places to live.
6. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The City of Pasco is the lead
agency for this project. An environmental determination will be made
after the public hearing for this project. A Determination of Non-
Significance or Mitigated Determination of Non-Significance is likely for
this application (WAC 197-11-355).
ANALYSIS
The preliminary plat site was annexed to the City in 1996 and was zoned R-1
as a result the zoning on the property was established 22 years ago. At the
time of annexation the Planning Commission considered the character of the
neighborhood and the impact R-1 zoning would have on the surrounding
properties prior to recommending R-1 zoning. Per the State Vesting Doctrine
(RCW 58.17.033 (1) the applicant is seeking preliminary plat review under the
zoning regulations (R-1) that were in place at the time the application was
submitted.
The site was initially designated for low-density residential development under
the 1982 Comprehensive Plan and again under the 1995 Plan and the updated
Plan of 2008. The current zoning is consistent with those plans.
The proposed plat will provide additional lots within the Urban Growth Area
(UGA) for single-family homes consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The
proposed plat can be considered an infill development on property that was
passed over during the time the surrounding neighborhood developed.
The plat site is one of the few remaining undeveloped parcels in the
neighborhood. The Parkhurst Addition to the south developed in the mid-
1960’s and the Sun Acres West subdivision to the north developed in the late
1970’s. As the result of past development in the area there are few good
options for laying out lots on the proposed site. The proposal with one cul de
sac down the middle of the property yields the maximum number of lots but
creates a double front situation along Pearl Street. A block wall will be needed
along Pearl Street with landscaping between the wall and sidewalk. Due to the
limited size of the proposed subdivision and the minimal success of home
owners association in the area the Planning Commission may want to consider
requiring a wider sidewalk along the proposed wall.
LOT LAYOUT: The proposed plat contains 20 residential lots. The lots vary in
size from 7,216 square feet to 9,810 square feet. The average lot size is
7,775square feet. The proposal is consistent with the density requirements of
Page 140 of 155
3
the R-1 zoning on the site. The minimum lot size for the R-1 zone is 7,200
square feet.
RIGHTS-OF-WAY: All lots have frontage on streets which will be dedicated. The
south half of Pearl Street and the western portion of Road 36 will be finished
with this subdivision. Because the proposed plat is zoned R-1 curb gutter and
sidewalk are required. The Mark Twain school property contains curb gutter
and sidewalk but the surrounding properties that developed in the 1960’s and
1970’ do not.
UTILITIES: Municipal water and sewer line are located in surrounding streets
and will be extended in Morehouse Place to serve the new lots.
A utility easement will be needed along the first 10 feet of street frontage of all
lots. The final location and width of the easements will be determined during
the engineering design phase. The front yard setbacks for construction
purposes are larger than the requested easements; therefore the front yard
easements will not diminish the buildable area of the lots.
The City Engineer will determine the specific placement of fire hydrants and
streetlights when construction plans are submitted. As a general rule, fire
hydrants are located at street intersections and with a maximum interval of
500 feet between hydrants on alternating sides of the street. Streetlights are
located at street intersections, with a maximum interval of less than 300 feet
on residential streets, and with a maximum interval of 150 feet on arterial
streets. The intervals for street light placements are measure along the
centerline of the road. Street lights are placed on alternating sides of the street.
STREET NAMES: The proposed street reflects the name of the subdivision.
IRRIGATION: The property is within the FCID service area.
WATER RIGHTS: The assignment of water rights is a requirement for
subdivision approval per Pasco Municipal Code Section 26.04.115(B) and
Section 3.07.160. If no water rights are available to transfer to the City the
property owner/developer must pay a water right fee in lieu thereof.
FINDINGS OF FACT
State law (RCW 58.17.010) and the Pasco Municipal Code require the Planning
Commission to develop Findings of Fact as to how this proposed subdivision
will protect and enhance the health, safety and general welfare of the
community. The following is a listing of proposed "Findings of Fact:"
Page 141 of 155
4
Prevent Overcrowding: Density requirements of the R-1 zone are designed to
address overcrowding concerns. The Comprehensive Plan suggests the property
in question be developed with 2 to 5 dwelling units per acre. The proposed Plat
has a density of approximately 4.3 units per acre. No more than 40 percent of
each lot is permitted to be covered with structures per the R-1 standards.
Parks Opens Space/Schools: There are no City parks in the immediate
vicinity however; the adjoining Mark Twain School has large play fields
available for public use. Park impact fees will be collected at the time of
permitting to be used for park development including development of a large
community park.
The City is required by RCW 58.17.110 to make a finding that adequate
provisions are being made to ameliorate the impacts of the proposed
subdivision on the School District. At the request of the School District the City
enacted a school impact fee in 2012. The imposition of this impact fee
addresses the requirement to ensure there are adequate provisions for schools.
A school impact fee in the amount of $4,700 will be charged for each new
dwelling unit at the time of building permit issuance.
Effective Land Use/Orderly Development: The Plat is laid out for single-
family development as identified in the Comprehensive Plan. The maximum
density permitted under the Comprehensive Plan is 5 dwelling units per acre.
The developer is proposing a density of 3.6 units per acre.
Safe Travel & Walking Conditions: The plat will connect to the community
through the existing network of streets. Sidewalks are required in the R-1 zone
and will be installed at the time homes are built on individual lots. The
sidewalks will be constructed to current City standards and to the standards of
the American’s with Disabilities Act (ADA). The ADA ramps at the corners of all
intersection will be installed with the construction of the road improvements
and the sidewalks along Pearl Street will be installed with the infrastructure
improvements.
Adequate Provision of Municipal Services: All lots within the Plat will be
provided with water, sewer and other utilities.
Provision of Housing for State Residents: This Preliminary Plat contains 20
residential building lots, providing an opportunity for the construction of 20
new dwelling units in Pasco.
Adequate Air and Light: The maximum lot coverage limitations, building
height restrictions and building setbacks will assure that adequate movement
of air and light is available to each lot.
Page 142 of 155
5
Proper Access & Travel: Morehouse Place will be paved and developed to City
standards to assure proper access is maintained to each lot. Connections to
the community will be provided by Road 36 and Pearl Street. The Preliminary
Plat was submitted to the Transit Authority for review (The discussion under
“Safe Travel” above applies to this section also).
Comprehensive Plan Policies & Maps: The Comprehensive Plan designates
the Plat site for low-density residential development. Policies of the
Comprehensive Plan encourage the advancement of home ownership and
suggest the City strive to maintain a variety of housing for residents.
Other Findings:
• The site is within the Pasco Urban Growth Boundary.
• The State Growth Management Act requires urban growth and urban
densities to occur within the Urban Growth Boundaries.
• The site is relatively flat and slopes slightly toward the south.
• The site is currently contains one house and several out buildings that
will all be removed prior to plat development.
• The site is not considered a critical area, a mineral resource area or a
wetland.
• The Comprehensive Plan identifies the site for low-density residential
development.
• Low-density residential development is described in the Comprehensive
Plan as two to five dwelling units per acre.
• The site is zoned R-1 (Low Density Residential).
• The developer is proposing 4.3 dwelling units per acre.
• The Housing Element of the Comprehensive Plan encourages the
advancement of programs that promote home ownership and
development of a variety of residential densities and housing types.
• The Transportation Element of the Comprehensive Plan encourages the
interconnection of neighborhood streets to provide for the disbursement
of traffic.
• The interconnection of neighborhood streets is necessary for utility
connections (looping) and the provision of emergency services.
• Per the ITE Trip Generation Manual 8th Addition the proposed
subdivision, when fully developed, will generate approximately 200
vehicle trips per day.
• The current traffic impact fee is $709 per dwelling unit. The impact fees
are collected at the time permits are issued and said fees are used to
make traffic improvements and add traffic signals in the I-182 Corridor
when warranted.
Page 143 of 155
6
• The current park impact fee is $1,467 per dwelling unit. The fee can be
reduced by 58 percent if a developer dedicates a five acre park site to the
City. The dedication of a fully constructed park reduces the fee by 93
percent.
• RCW 58.17.110 requires the City to make a finding that adequate
provisions have been made for schools before any preliminary plat is
approved.
• The City of Pasco has adopted a school impact fee ordinance compelling
new housing developments to provide the School District with mitigation
fees. The fee was effective April 16, 2012.
• Past correspondence from the Pasco School District indicates impact fees
address the requirement to ensure adequate provisions are made for
schools.
• The plat is required to be development following all municipal codes
relating to infrastructure improvements.
• Plat improvements within the City of Pasco are required to comply with
the 2015 Standard Drawings and Specification as approved by the City
Engineer. These improvements include but are not limited to water,
sewer and irrigation lines, streets, street lights and storm water
retention. The handicapped-accessible pedestrian ramps are completed
with the street and curb improvements prior to final plat approval.
Sidewalks are installed at the time permits are issued for new houses,
except sidewalks along major streets, which are installed with the street
improvements.
• Water lines and fire hydrants are required to be looped. An easement
between two lots may be required to accomplish the looping
• Per PMC 12.36.050 the developer must extend all utilities to and through
the subject parcel.
• All engineering designs for infrastructure and final plat(s) drawings are
required to utilize the published City of Pasco Vertical Control Datum.
• All storm water generated from a developed plat is required to be
disposed of per City and State codes and requirements. Prior to the City
of Pasco accepting construction plans for review the developer is required
to enter into a Storm Water Maintenance Agreement with the City. The
developer is responsible for obtaining the signatures of all parties
required on the agreement and to have the agreement recorded with the
Franklin County Auditor. The original signed and recorded copy of the
agreement is presented to the City of Pasco at the intake meeting for
construction plans.
• Storm water runoff and infiltration calculations must comply with the
Storm Water Management Manual for Easter Washington, they must be
provided for review and approval. Storm water calculations must be
prepared, stamped, signed and dated by a currently licensed Professional
Engineer registered in the State of Washington.
Page 144 of 155
7
• The assignment of water rights is a requirement for subdivision approval
per Pasco Municipal Code Section 26.04.115(B) and Section 3.07.160.
• The developer is responsible for all costs associated with construction,
inspection, and plan review service expenses incurred by the City
Engineering Office.
• The site is adjacent to an elementary school and the future sidewalk
north of the subdivision fence will continue to be a school travel route. A
standard width sidewalk with a landscaped strip with rock or lawn may
be difficult to maintain as a result of school aged children walking on the
landscaped strip and dislodging landscape rock. The subdivision is
rather small for a functioning Home Owners Association to maintain the
street landscaping so the Planning Commission. A wider sidewalk along
the northern side of the plat may revolve the referenced concerns.
• The City has nuisance regulations (PMC 9.60) that require property
owners (including developers) to maintain their properties in a manner
that does not injure, annoy, or endanger the comfort and repose of other
property owners. This includes controlling dust, weeds and litter during
times of construction for both subdivisions and buildings including
houses.
• Prior to acceptance of final plats developers are required to prepare and
submit record drawings. All record drawings shall be created in
accordance with the requirements detailed in the Record Drawing
Requirements and Procedure form provided by the Engineering Division.
This form must be signed by the developer prior to construction plan
approval.
• The final plat will contain 10-foot utility easements parallel to all streets.
Additional easement will be provided as needed by utility providers.
CONCLUSIONS BASED ON INITIAL STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT
Before recommending approval or denial of the proposed Plat the Planning
Commission must develop findings of fact from which to draw its conclusion
(P.M.C. 26.24.070) therefrom as to whether or not:
(1) Adequate provisions are made for the public health, safety and
general welfare and for open spaces, drainage ways, streets, alleys,
other public ways, water supplies, sanitary wastes, parks,
playgrounds, transit stops, schools and school grounds, sidewalks for
safe walking conditions for students and other public needs;
Page 145 of 155
8
The proposed plat will be required to develop under the standards of the Pasco
Municipal Code and the standard specifications of the City Engineering
Division. These standards for streets, sidewalks, and other infrastructure
improvements were designed to ensure the public health; safety and general
welfare of the community are secured. These standards include provisions for
streets, drainage, water and sewer service and the provision for dedication of
right-of-way. The preliminary plat was forwarded to the PUD, the Pasco School
District, Cascade Gas, Charter Cable, franklin County Irrigation District and
Ben-Franklin Transit Authority for review and comment.
Based on the School Districts Capital Facilities Plan the City collects school
mitigation fees for each new dwelling unit. The fee is paid at the time of
building permit issuance. The school impact fee addresses the requirements of
RCW 58.17.110. All new developments participate in establishing parks
through the payment of park fees at the time of permitting.
(2) The proposed subdivision contributes to the orderly development and
land use patterns in the area;
The proposed Plat is an infill development that was passed over when the
neighborhood developed in the 1960’s and 1970’s. The proposed plat is
designed to make the most efficient use of a vacant land parcel of land.
(3) The proposed subdivision conforms to the policies, maps and
narrative text of the Comprehensive Plan;
The Comprehensive Plan land use map designates the site for low-density
residential development. Low-density residential development is described as 2
to 5 dwelling units per acre in the Comprehensive Plan. The Housing Element
of the Plan encourages the promotion of a variety of residential densities and
suggests the community should support the advancement of programs
encouraging home ownership. The Plan also encourages the interconnection of
local streets for inter-neighborhood travel for public safety as well as providing
for traffic disbursement.
(4) The proposed subdivision conforms to the general purposes of any
applicable policies or plans which have been adopted by the City
Council;
Development plans and policies have been adopted by the City Council in the
form of the Comprehensive Plan. The proposed subdivision conforms to the
policies, maps and narrative text of the Plan as noted in number three above.
(5) The proposed subdivision conforms to the general purposes of the
subdivision regulations.
Page 146 of 155

The general purposes of the subdivision regulations have been enumerated and
discussed in the staff analysis and Findings of Fact. The Findings of Fact
indicate the subdivision is in conformance with the general purposes of the
subdivision regulations provided certain mitigation measures (i.e., school
impact fees are paid).
(6) The public use and interest will be served by approval of the proposed
subdivision.
The proposed Plat, if approved, will be developed in accordance with all City
standards designed to ensure the health, safety and general welfare of the
community are met. The Comprehensive Plan will be implemented through
development of this Plat. These factors will ensure the public use and interest
are served.

E. Preliminary Plat Morehouse Addition, 20-lots (Kevin Denhoed)
(MF# PP 2018-003)
Chairwoman Roach read the master file number and asked for comments from staff.
Dave McDonald, City Planner, discussed the preliminary plat application for
Morehouse Addition, 20-lots. This is a plat for a small 4.5 acre plat located at the
southwest corner of Road 36 and West Pearl directly east of the Mark Twain
Elementary School. This is an infill type of development within the whole “donut
hole”. In this case, however, sewer service is available. Sewer was put in with an LID
back in the 1990’s and because of that, the surrounding properties were zoned R-1,
single-family residential with minimum lot sizes of 7,200 sq. ft. The developer plans to
develop 20 lots. There isn’t much they can do in respect to design so they plan to run
a cul-de-sac down the middle which creates a row of double-frontage lots, which isn’t
ideal when it backs up to a local access street. In this case, Pearl is a local access
street and it may look odd so there will need to be a fence. That could create some
difficulties with sidewalk and landscaping. Staff is recommending the area behind the
wall/fence be treated with a 7’ sidewalk and the balance of the area with stamped
concrete.
The applicant was not present to speak on the proposed plat.
Barbara Hayne, 3621 W. Pearls Street, discussed her concerns about the proposed
plat in regards to parking, traffic and tight spaces. She had questions for staff that
Mr. McDonald answered.
With no further questions or comments the public hearing closed.
Commissioner Bowers voiced concern with parking and asked if there have been any
complaints regarding parking in the neighborhood to the south that staff was aware
of.
Mr. McDonald replied none that he was aware of.
Commissioner Portugal moved, seconded by Commissioner Bowers, to close the public
hearing on the proposed preliminary plat and set May 17, 2018 as the date for
deliberations and the development of a recommendation for the City Council. The
motion passed unanimously.
