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.

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

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.
