Page 2 of 11 AGENDA REPORT FOR: City Council TO: Dave Zabell, City Manager Workshop Meeting: 7/23/18 FROM: Steve Worley, Director Public Works SUBJECT: Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Policy I. REFERENCE(S): Proposed Resolution II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Discussion III. FISCAL IMPACT: N/A IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: In 2009, the Legislature approved the State Agency Climate Leadership Act establishing greenhouse gas emission reduction limits for state government. The act directs state agencies to track, report, and reduce their greenhouse gases. Agencies are working to reduce their emissions from electricity use, fuel consumption, business travel, and employee commuting. State, regional and local governments throughout the United States are adopting energy conservation programs and policies designed to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions and the need for imported oil, as well as reduced energy bills, improved air quality and traffic congestion. V. DISCUSSION: Funding agencies, such as the Washington State Public Works Board, Transportation Improvement Board, etc., have determined that policies addressing greenhouse emissions, are deemed necessary. As a means to encourage the adoption of such Page 3 of 11 policies by local governments the Washington State Public Works Board has made adopting a Greenhouse Gas Reduction Policy a requirement for submitting an application for Public Works Trust Fund monies The proposed resolution will satisfy the funding agency requirement and acknowledge that the policies will benefit the City of Pasco and aid in the reduction of greenhouse gases. The attached resolution is non-binding and references policies and practices in a number of operational areas, most all of which are already in practice here in one form or another. Page 4 of 11 RESOLUTION NO. __________ A RESOLUTION of the City of Pasco, Washington endorsing and adopting Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Policies. WHEREAS, state, regional and local governments throughout the United States are adopting energy conservations programs and policies; WHEREAS, local governments can help reduce greenhouse gas emission through the implementation of programs and policies that promote reduced energy bills, green space preservation, air quality improvements, reduced traffic congestion, improved transportation choices, among other policies; WHEREAS, as a part of overall policy considerations, policies addressing greenhouse emissions, are deemed necessary, and the Washington State funding agencies have made adopting a Greenhouse Gas Reduction Policy a requirement for submitting an application for certain grant and loan programs; THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PASCO, WASHINGTON, HEREBY RESOLVES as follows: Section 1. Greenhouse Gas Reduction Policy adopted. The policies and/or procedures attached hereto as Exhibit "A" are adopted as the City of Pasco's Greenhouse Gas Reduction Policy to satisfy the Washington State Public Works Board requirement and to recognize that the policies will benefit the City of Pasco and will help in reducing greenhouse gases.

Page 7 of 11 AGENDA REPORT FOR: City Council July 18, 2018 TO: Dave Zabell, City Manager Workshop Meeting: 7/23/18 FROM: Bob Gear, Fire Chief Fire Department SUBJECT: Station 83 and Station 84 Progress Report I. REFERENCE(S): 2018-2023 Capital Improvement plan projects #00001 and #00002 Pasco Fire Department Emergency Services Master Plan Pasco Fire Department Strategic Plan Council Goal to achieve/maintain target response times Council Goal to achieve a Washington State Rating Bureau (WSRB) rating of 4 Council Resolution 2938, approving Performance Standards for the Pasco Fire Department Emergency Responses Concept Site Plan Diagram Station 83 and Station 84 II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: No action requested, an update status of these projects to be provided. III. FISCAL IMPACT: Not determined at this time. IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: The Emergency Services Master Plan identified the need to relocate fire station 83 to the area of Road 68 and Sandifur and to construct a permanent fire station 84 which will be located on Court St in the Riverview area. This action was recommended to meet the travel time recommendations of 6 minutes to 90% of our incidents and to achieve the Washington State Rating Bureau (WSRB) protection class 4 rating. V. DISCUSSION: This progress report is to update Council on the future construction of fire station 83 and fire station 84 in preparation of future discussions on the funding options as we Page 8 of 11 review the 2019 Capital Improvement Plan and 2019-2020 budget. The City has retained the architecture firm, TCA Architects, a Seattle based firm with comprehensive knowledge in functions and designs of modern fire facilities. TCA Architects were the chosen firm for both Kennewick and Richland's recently completed stations, currently they are doing design work on an additional Kennewick Station and Administrative Facility. Their firm is very familiar with local construction of our area. Brian Harris and Sarah Harmonn of TCA will be providing Council with a overview of the conceptual design of the two stations. In addition, a multi discipline facilities task force was assembled to provide input with the conceptual design of the two new fire stations. As we continue to move the conceptual design forward towards construction documents we have also added Strategic Construction Management Team, with an office located in Pasco. They has been involved in projects such as Tri-Cities Airport Modernization and expansion with the Port of Pasco. Their role in this project is to assure that the City has the most accurate cost projections that can be done prior to the actual bidding of the project. They will review the estimates for all phases of the projects, both construction and soft costs, to see that they reflect the construction market in the Tri-cities. David Robinson and Kim Harvey will provide a brief overview to Council of their process and services. The development of the City west of Road 100 and north of Burns Road is dependent on the re-location of station 83 to provide travel times within 6 minutes. Moving station 83 north also furthers the need for completion of a permanent station 84 in place of the temporary facility which is now currently occupied on Road 48 and Octave St. Page 9 of 11 DRAFT03/13/2018 4.3 Concept -Site Plan Diagram SANDIFUR PKWY 58‘-0"PRIVATE ENTRANCE TO{E-I‘ADJACENT PROPERTY W — -6 ‘ if 1r if % 1;1}1}if -9-—f7“L =»¥ .-_E 1c 3ru 2 I EEa _ cm or msco T A FIRESTATION83.84 39 Page 10 of 11 DRAFT 03/13/2018 5.3 Concept-Site Plan Diagram ,RD 52 DRAINAGE" I V EASMENT{J K j J \ , c’J,EXISTING _v'9'i TREE ‘w’ cmovv LINE\v 1 5,4y "\ E 1 \}r V‘;EI'5 I “ PUBLICPARK 7 ‘ . ‘I ‘I “I V“ I. } ‘ ‘“M “ \i f ‘l\,I ‘ u 5 I K"x ,‘‘\ >,EI; _,N ‘-u_.4—{ CITYOF PASCO A FIRESTATION83,84 79 J1‘.°:~ Page 11 of 11
