TO: Dave Zabell, City Manager Regular Meeting: 8/5/19
FROM: Rick White, Director
Community & Economic Development
SUBJECT: Service Agreement with TRIDEC
I. REFERENCE(S):
Proposed Agreement
TRIDEC 2019 Plan of Work
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: I move to approve the Industrial Recruitment Participant Agreement
between the City of Pasco and TRIDEC; and further, authorize the City Manager to
execute the Agreement.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
$30,000 annually
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
Pasco (along with Kennewick, Richland and West Richland) has contracted with
TRIDEC since the early 1990s for the provision of certain economic development
services. Those services have evolved over the years, as has involvement of the cities
in the TRIDEC organization.
Each city currently has a seat on the Board and the cities (as a group) are afforded one
seat on the executive committee. Consequently, the cities are directly involved in
determining the direction of TRIDEC and coordinating TRIDEC's efforts with those of
the cities.
The proposed Agreement spells out the various objectives to be pursued and services to
be provided by TRIDEC on behalf of the cities toward economic development goals.
The most recent partnership agreement was executed in 2015, and expired at the end of
Page 12 of 105
2018. This proposed Agreement is identical to its predecessor with the exception of
revised wording to the Terms of Agreement which clarifies the timelines for
termination and the extension of the Agreement from a 4 year period to a 5 year period.
The Agreement includes the continued commitment to pay $30,000 annually for
TRIDEC services.
City Council considered the proposed Agreement at the Council Workshop of July 22,
2019.
V. DISCUSSION:
Staff recommends Council's favorable consideration of the proposed Agreement. The
City (on its own) could not provide the level of economic development services
provided by TRIDEC for the amount required under the proposed Agreement.

INDUSTRIAL RECRUITMENT PARTICIPANT AGREEMENT BETWEEN
THE CITY OF PASCO
AND
THE TRI-CITY DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL
Benton Franklin businesses, local governments, chambers of commerce, and other economic development
agencies are intent on working cooperatively with the Tri-City Development Council (“TRIDEC”) to recruit
new industry to the bi-county area. This agreement is between TRIDEC, the State’s designated Associate
Development Organization (ADO) for Benton and Franklin Counties, and the City of Pasco, a local entity,
both designated herein as “Participants” in the bi-county industrial recruitment program. Similar
agreements are being secured between TRIDEC and the counties of Benton and Franklin, the cities of
Kennewick, Richland, Pasco and West Richland, and the ports of Benton, Pasco, and Kennewick.
MUTUAL OBJECTIVES
The Participants seek to expand business activity, increase capital investment, and broaden employment
opportunities in the bi-county area. To accomplish this, TRIDEC will coordinate a program to expand
existing industrial employment and recruit new industries to Benton Franklin Counties.
While TRIDEC’s primary mission is industrial job creation, the Participants are also committed to
supporting creation of new businesses, commercialization of technology, expansion of tourism, retail
development, and other means of economic development. However, these important efforts are led by
community-based economic development organizations other than TRIDEC. The participants will
establish roles and responsibilities for these functions with other agencies through separate agreements.
The cities, counties, and ports may have occasion to pursue individual or collective industrial recruitment
effort beyond the confines of this agreement. To the extent these supplemental activities require a
significant commitment of TRIDEC resources, they may as well be the subject of separate agreements.
AGREEMENT
The Participants will cooperate in the planning and implementation of activities to recruit new basic
industry to the bi-county area. TRIDEC will coordinate this effort, making productive use of its own staff
and volunteers, as well personnel resources supplied by other Participants. The TRIDEC President is
responsible for administering this agreement. Pasco designates its Community and Economic Development
Director as its primary contract for TRIDEC’s industrial recruitment program.
PROGRAM STRUCTURE
The TRIDEC Board of Directors is ultimately responsible for setting business recruitment program policies.
Cities, counties, and ports have full representation on the Board. The recommendations of the Board’s
Commerce & Industry Committee and TRIDEC staff help shape these policies. Elected and appointed
officials from member local governments have opportunities for active involvement. The TRIDEC staff is
responsible for administering the industrial recruitment program in cooperation the personnel from
Participant agencies.
TRIDEC functions as the Associate Development Organization for the Department of Commerce. TRIDEC
also engages businesses, educational institutions, the Department of Energy and its contractors, the Tri -
Cities Visitor and Convention Bureau, and other bi-county economic development agencies to effectively
support its industrial recruitment program.
Page 14 of 105
The TRIDEC President/CEO and participants, port, city, and county managers will endeavor to maintain
effective coordination among the Participants. The Case Management Group, consisting of the TRIDEC
Vice-President for Commerce & Industry and designated staff from each Participant agency, will work
together on an on-going basis to market, recruit, qualify, and service prospects.
TRIDEC, in cooperation with the Participants, will accomplish the following objectives:
Industrial Recruiting Staff: Retain a qualified business recruiting staff to work with designated
Participant agency personnel.
Marketing Plan: Maintain and follow a formal, written plan to market to, identify, recruit, qualify,
and service industrial prospects. Focus on target opportunities, including but not limited to
agribusiness, environmental industries, I-5 Corridor business, metals industries, and back-
office/telecommunication business.
Client Tracking System: Administer a client tracking system to manage and record prospect
contacts. Encourage use of the system by all Participants.
Site/Facility Inventory: Administer and update as needed a data base including the following
information for industrial sites and facilities available for recruited industries: site and structures
plans, location, site dimensions and acreage, soil conditions and slope, transportation access,
availability or utilities, zoning, neighboring land uses, and contact person.
Training: Provide effective industrial marketing to Participants, agency staff, and community
volunteers who come into contact with industrial prospects.
Measurement: Regularly monitor and report industrial recruiting progress using a mutually agreed
measurement system that gauges program effectiveness.
Communications: Through its Internet, website, e-mail, printed reports, newsletters media releases,
and briefing sessions, keep all Participants and the general public adequately informed of industrial
recruitment activities.
Annual Report: The year’s industrial recruitment accomplishment and plans for the coming year
will be reported at TRIDEC’s annual meeting.
HANDLING OF PROSPECTS
Business and recruitment activities can begin with contacts originated through Department of Commerce
and referred to TRIDEC, directly by TRIDEC, or by a local entity.
Contacts through TRIDEC: The following describes the handling of prospects cases when contact
originates at TRIDEC or is referred to TRIDEC by Department of Commerce.
Page 15 of 105
TRIDEC will provide general information on the bi-county area and other data requested by the
prospect. In response to the Prospect’s expressed interests, TRIDEC will also supply names of
property owners and Participant contacts.
If the prospect indicates an interest in specific business locations TRIDEC will notify affected
Participants and property owners, share information gathered, make appropriate introductions, and
assist in follow-up marketing as requested.
If the prospect indicates interest in specific sites, but requests confidentiality, TRIDEC will keep
affected parties fully informed without revealing the identity of the prospect. This information will
remain confidential until release by TRIDEC is authorized by the prospect.
When a prospect establishes formal discussions with a participant and commits to a site in its
jurisdiction, responsibility for managing the contact will be transferred from TRIDEC to that entity.
TRIDEC will continue serving as the prospect’s community advocate and provide assistance as
requested.
Contacts at the Local Entity Level: This describes the handling of prospects when the contact
originates with the local entity, or the entity has assumed responsibilities for the case.
Local entities rely on TRIDEC to supply a variety of valuable industrial recruitment
information and services. When a local entity receives a contact inquiry or is managing an industrial
prospect and desires support from TRIDEC, it need only request such assistance.
It is not necessary for the entity to divulge the identity of a prospect to TRIDEC unless it
elects to do so. If requested assistance requires disclosure of the prospect identity, TRIDEC will render
such assistance while maintaining confidentiality.
If the local entity determines that dealing with a prospect exceeds its abilities, the prospect
will be referred to TRIDEC for further handling.
If more than one local entity requests assistance with the same prospect, TRIDEC will so
advise affected entities. Under this circumstance, subsequent requests for assistance must be mutually
agreed upon by affected local entities before it is rendered by TRIDEC.
CLOSING DEALS
The cities participating as Participants in industrial recruitment activities will collectively provide TRIDEC
$95,000 annually to support the program in addition to transfer by the Counties of funds from Department
of Commerce in designating TRIDEC as the Regional ADO. Shares are allocated as to equitably distribute
the financial responsibilities for the program.
The annual cost distribution is shown below:
City of Kennewick $30,000
City of Richland $30,000
City of Pasco $30,000
City of West Richland $5,000
Page 16 of 105
For the services herein above described, the City of Pasco agrees to pay TRIDEC the sum of Thirty
Thousand Dollars ($30,000) for the twelve-month periods beginning January 1 and ending December 31
for each year the contract is in effect. Payments shall be made in equal quarterly installments and within
30 days upon City of Pasco receipt of invoices setting forth the services rendered.
TERM OF AGREEMENT
This agreement will be effective on January 1, 2019 and remain in effect through December 31, 2023. It
may be amended at any time by mutual agreement of Participants. The Agreement may be terminated at
any time by mutual agreement or by either Participant for cause, failure to perform, or for other legitimate

TRI-CITY DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL
2019 PLAN OF WORK
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
WHY TRI-CITIES?
The area wide approach to economic development continues to be sound not only
because it’s more efficient and cost effective, but because as a “single entity” the Tri-
Cities holds more attraction than as individual jurisdictions. TRIDEC is the only local
organization that focuses on economic growth of the entire Tri-Cities community.
MISSION
TRIDEC’s mission is to improve the economic health of the Tri-Cities region by
facilitating job creation and capital investment in primary employment industries in
Benton and Franklin Counties.
TRIDEC is an advocate for business, a resource for local economic conditions, and a
catalyst for progress. TRIDEC also advocates on State and Federal issues important to
the community, along with Federal programs and funding priorities that are important
to research at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and cleanup of the Hanford
Reservation.
BUSINESS RECRUITMENT
The overall objective of TRIDEC’s business recruitment program is to identify and
attract companies into Benton and Franklin Counties that results in capital investment
and the creation of long-term, family wage jobs for area residents.
Business Recruitment Activities:
As Benton and Franklin Counties designated ADO (Associate Economic
Development Organization), TRIDEC is the clearing house for business leads
generated by the Washington State Department of Commerce.
TRIDEC’s business recruitment target industries include: energy, logistics, food
processing, machinery manufacturing, carbon fiber manufacturing, and training.
Produce the following collateral materials: Tri-Cities Community Fact Sheet, Retail
Fact Sheet, and Target Industry Business Cases.
Market the Tri-Cities community through 1-2 industry targeted print
advertisements.
Through the Whitaker SmartLeads program, TRIDEC receives 25 company leads
per month from our target industries.

2019 Plan of Work | Page 5
2019 PLAN OF WORK
This document sets out activities planned by TRIDEC during 2019 in the areas of new
business recruitment, business retention and expansion, federal programs,
communications, small business resources, and workforce development.
While TRIDEC intends to accomplish the tasks described in this Plan of Work it should
be recognized that it is a “plan,” and as local or national conditions, change activities
may be adjusted to reflect these shifts. Also, TRIDEC, like any successful economic
development organization, needs to be able to adjust quickly to take advantage of
development opportunities which cannot be anticipated six months to a year in
advance.
Why Tri-Cities?
The area wide approach to economic development continues to be sound not only
because it’s more efficient and cost effective, but because as a “single entity” the Tri-
Cities holds more attraction than as individual jurisdictions. TRIDEC is the only local
organization that focuses on economic growth of the entire Tri-Cities community.
Mission
TRIDEC’s mission is to improve the economic health of the Tri-Cities region by
facilitating job creation and capital investment in primary employment industries in
Benton and Franklin Counties.
TRIDEC is an advocate for business, a resource for local economic conditions, and a
catalyst for progress. TRIDEC also advocates on State and Federal issues important to
the community, along with Federal programs and funding priorities that are important
to research at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and cleanup of the Hanford
Reservation.
To achieve this mission TRIDEC will:
Promote diversification of the local economic base.
Facilitate job creation and retention by focusing on primary employment
industries.
Leverage technical, scientific and natural resources to encourage new
investment.
Pursue new federal missions and support employment and fiscal stability in local
federally funded operations.
Identify and advocate for actions to improve the overall business climate.
Advocate and lead the community on issues of economic importance.
Page 22 of 105
2019 Plan of Work | Page 6
Indicators of success include:
Growth in total number of jobs.
Reduction in unemployment rates.
Increases in personal income.
Total investment in the counties from both private and public sources.
The Tri-City economy added 3,500 jobs between October 2017 and 2018 – an increase
of 3.1%. The goods producing sector of the economy recorded 5.4% growth. All this
growth cannot be credited to TRIDEC’s activities, but TRIDEC is the only local
organization that focuses on the economic growth of the entire community. TRIDEC is
focused on “growing the whole pie and not just making the slices smaller.”
BUSINESS RECRUITMENT
Getting the attention of business prospects is a challenging task, particularly while
competing with an estimated 13,000 other economic development organizations in the
U.S. Despite the competition, TRIDEC has been successful in building community
awareness with nationally recognized site location consultants, corporate real estate
executives and some of the national real estate brokerage community.
The overall objective of TRIDEC’s business recruitment program is to identify and
attract companies into Benton and Franklin Counties that will result in capital
investment and the creation of long-term family wage jobs for area residents. As the
designated ADO for Benton and Franklin Counties, we are responsible for responding
to/managing leads Department of Commerce receives.
TRIDEC’s recruitment as well as business retention and expansion activities have
focused primarily on companies with markets for goods or services that are outside the
community. By creating primary jobs - jobs associated with exporting a product or
service outside the community - capital is returned in the form of profits and wages.
This creates disposable income to support the service and hospitality sectors. It is
estimated that in most communities every manufacturing job is responsible for another
2 ½ non-manufacturing jobs.
During 2014, the consulting team led by TadZo, proposed new industrial sectors and
their corresponding NAICS Codes for specific subsectors. The following list highlights
the major sectors of interest, but does not include subsector detail:
Energy
Logistics
Food Processing
Machinery
Carbon Fiber Manufacturing
Training
Page 23 of 105
2019 Plan of Work | Page 7
Manufacturing
It is very important to recognize that targeting specific industries is not done at the
exclusion of other business recruitment opportunities. If leads come to the region
outside of identified targets, TRIDEC and partner economic development professionals
will work those projects aggressively.
TadZo’s research identified industries that align to regional capabilities and provide
opportunity to diversify the regional economy. Target industries enable a focus for
proactive marketing strategies and smart resource allocation. Effective use of available
resources avoids duplicate activities among partners while concentrating on marketing
tactics that produce positive results.
Advertising, External Communication, and Recruitment Mailings
TRIDEC has traditionally placed a small amount of print advertising in recognized site
selection publications such as Area Development, Site Selection, and Expansion
Solutions. TRIDEC also pays for directory listings in these and similar publications.
During 2019 TRIDEC will:
Place one or two quarter page ads outlining the advantages of doing business in
the Tri-Cities in one or more of the above publications.
- Staff will also evaluate other advertising opportunities such as web-based
banner ads or advertisements in special publications on a one by one basis.
In addition to the communication protocol used with the SmartLeads
subscription discussed below, TRIDEC will continue to conduct mailings to senior
management in target industry sectors, as well as site selection consultants and
other third-party advisors, discussing the advantages of a Tri-City location.
Lead Generation: Whittaker SmartLeads Program
TRIDEC has established a relationship with Whittaker Associates, a respected economic
development consultant specializing in target industry research for communities.
SmartLeads, a product developed by Whittaker & Associates, uses a proprietary
predictive model ranking companies within target industry sectors using an algorithm
to determine each company’s probability of relocating or expanding based on dozens of
variables. The companies showing the highest potential are further researched to
generate a Company Intelligence Report. SmartLeads is limited to 10 clients nationally.
Page 24 of 105
2019 Plan of Work | Page 8
The subscription service provides a monthly database of 25 Company Intelligence
Reports in the target sectors identified by TadZo, along with lead tracking software.
TRIDEC has established a communications protocol for ongoing contact with these
companies explaining the benefits of a Tri-Cities location.
During 2018, TRIDEC began directing Whittaker to focus the lead generation on
companies likely to attend the trade shows TRIDEC targeted for the two months
leading up to the show. Of the 50 leads TRIDEC received for each of the 2018 shows an
average of nine appointment were set with companies at the show. A similar process
will be used for the 2019 Natural Products Expo East and PowerGen trade shows.
Trade Shows/Target Industry Events/Site Selector Meetings
International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) (May, Las Vegas, NV)
TRIDEC’s municipal partners have asked for more involvement and assistance in
their retail recruitment efforts. This has been the primary reason for including
the retail site selector’s link on the TRIDEC website and continued licensing of
Zoom Prospector. TRIDEC staff accompanied city economic development
professionals to the show in Las Vegas for the last three years and will participate
again in May 2019.
Natural Products Expo East (September, Baltimore, MD)
There is a Natural Products Expo held in the West and East. These shows are the
premier industry events for companies producing and distributing natural food
products. TRIDEC staff has attended the West show in the past and will attend
the East show in 2019.
Page 25 of 105
2019 Plan of Work | Page 9
SelectUSA Investment Summit (June, Washington DC)
TRIDEC will participate with the Washington State Department of Commerce in
exhibiting at SelectUSA. SelectUSA is a high profile event dedicated to
promoting foreign direct investment (FDI) in the United States. The event
provides a unique opportunity to bring together companies from all over the
world with economic development organizations. Attendees include senior
government officials, C-Suite business executives, and other thought leaders.
PowerGen (November, New Orleans, LA)
PowerGen is the largest power/energy event in the industry - offering access to
18,000 power professionals over three days. TRIDEC first attended PowerGen in
2010. TRIDEC exhibited at the event for three years. In 2016 the consulting firm
of ROI was retained to set appointments rather than work from a stationary
booth. Six company meetings were scheduled at the show and telephone
meetings were held with two additional companies. TRIDEC made nine
appointments on its own in 2017 and ten in 2018. TRIDEC is continuing to
evaluate the effectiveness of this process.
Industrial Asset Management Council (IAMC) Professional Forum Events
TRIDEC will attend both Industrial Asset Management Council (IAMC)
Professional Forum events during 2019. IAMC is the leading association of
corporate real estate executives, site location consultants and national real
estate brokerage firms. The Forums provide visibility for the Tri-Cities through
signage, printed programs and schedules, and recognition during breakout
sessions. Upcoming meetings of IAMC include Santa Barbara, California in May
and Milwaukee, Wisconsin in September.
BUSINESS RETENTION & EXPANSION (BRE)
Retention and Expansion of existing businesses, especially manufacturing, is usually
considered the economic development engine of a community. Most economic
development professionals agree that a good Business Retention & Expansion Program
is one of the essential building blocks of a community’s growth and prosperity.
TRIDEC’s Business Retention & Expansion Program will continue to implement new and
dynamic programs to grow our existing manufacturers in 2019.
FABREO & Grow Manufacturing Programs
TRIDEC will continue to develop the food and beverage processing industry through its
successful FABREO Columbia Basin Program. In addition, TRIDEC will establish a Grow
Manufacturing program to operate in tandem with FABREO.
Page 26 of 105
2019 Plan of Work | Page 10
One change in the FABREO program is that TRIDEC will not be hosting a FABREO Expo
for 2019. Instead, TRIDEC will organize a series of seminars/meetings on topics of
interest to local food and beverage companies and/or local manufacturers. TRIDEC will
test this concept during the first quarter of 2019 and assuming it is successful additional
events will be scheduled.
Page 27 of 105
2019 Plan of Work | Page 11
Goals for 2019 include the following:
Continue to promote the Columbia Basin as a world-class food and beverage
region with a rich and nurturing environment for all new and existing
manufacturers.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2019 schedule an educational event around a
topic of interest to local food and beverage companies or local manufacturers.
Host up to six similar events throughout the year.
Support the work of the Columbia Basin College in their efforts to develop the
Columbia Basin College Culinary Arts Center.
Continue to support development of areas in the community that have regional
significance such as Vista Field, Heritage Industrial Center, and the Tri-Cities
Research District.
Continue to monitor the Federal Opportunity Zone Program and work with the
Cities of Pasco and Kennewick to identify potential development projects that
can utilize the incentives offered through the program.
Continue supporting the Strategic Gateway concept, positioning the Columbia
Basin as the strategic gateway between the United States and Asia (initiated by
Memorandums of Understanding between TRIDEC and the Hong Kong Trade
Development Council and the People’s Government of Wulanchabu, Inner
Mongolia, China).
Support growth in the local startup community and facilities such as Fuse and
other coworking and business incubator space.
Manufacturing Growth Activities
To best serve manufacturing in the Tri-Cities, TRIDEC will continue to participate in a
number of manufacturing growth activities such as:
Partner with Impact Washington to provide manufacturing consulting services to
individual companies, as requested by the companies.
Participate as a judge and sponsor in the Annual Richland Rotary Entrepreneurial
Awards. TRIDEC has been asked to act and emcee for the 2019 event (February).
Promote accomplishments by area manufacturers in the TRIDEC e-newsletters
and social media.
Contact a minimum of five manufacturing companies per week and visit a
minimum of eight local companies per month.
Encourage local manufacturers to become members of TRIDEC.
FEDERAL PROGRAMS
Page 28 of 105
2019 Plan of Work | Page 12
Hanford & Pacific Northwest National Laboratory Budgets
Fiscal Year 2019 (FY19) and FY18 before it were good years for DOE funding due in part
to higher authorized spending levels, which are often referred to as ‘budget caps.’ The
compromise that increased the DOE budget caps expires after FY19, and it is unknown
whether or not a new deal will be reached for FY20. If not, sequestration-level funding
will be reinstated, meaning that both Hanford and PNNL could face very substantial
funding reductions after FY19.
The total FY19 Hanford cleanup budget is approximately $2.44 billion, with $1.573
billion for DOE Office of River Protection and $865.171 million for the DOE Richland
Operations Office. The President is expected to release the administration’s proposed
FY20 budget request in February 2019.
The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is expected to receive
approximately $1 billion in FY18 through a wide variety of federal agencies and
programs.
There are also two notable changes with the Washington congressional delegation
following this year’s elections. Senator Maria Cantwell will be vacating her position of
Ranking Member of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee in order to
serve as Ranking Member of the Senate Commerce Committee. With the change in
majorities in the House, Congressman Adam Smith will become Chairman of the House
Armed Services Committee, which has jurisdiction over Hanford’s defense waste
cleanup.
Federal Programs Actions:
After the Administration’s FY20 budget request is released, TRIDEC will prepare
our annual Congressional Letter highlighting our funding priorities for Hanford
cleanup, PNNL, the Manhattan Project National Historical Park, and Yucca
Mountain.
Follow up with congressional offices throughout the budget process.
Advocate for a deal to lift the budget caps in FY20 and beyond by explaining the
implications for Hanford and PNNL if sequestration-level funding is
implemented.
Additional Hanford/PNNL Priorities:
Contracts
o DOE is currently reviewing proposals for the Hanford Mission Essential
Services Contract (HMESC) while also developing Requests for Proposal
(RFP) for the Central Plateau Cleanup Contract (CPCC) and the Tank
Page 29 of 105
2019 Plan of Work | Page 13
Operations Contract (TOC). TRIDEC will continue to review draft RFPs and
provide comments with a particular focus on a strong ‘Community
Commitment Clause’ and support for local business subcontracting.
o Share community commitment priorities with DOE officials along with
companies who are interested in Hanford contracts.
Closely monitor, provide input, and encourage dialogue regarding proposals to
reclassify some high-level waste and/or to develop alternative waste treatment
and disposition pathways. Both proposals have the potential to reduce costs and
expedite treatment of Hanford’s tank waste.
Continue support for a Waste Incidental to Reprocessing (WIR) determination
that would allow DOE to close Waste Management Area C (C Tank Farm) using
grout. The alternative would be extraordinarily costly with minimal benefit and
would divert funding away from other high-priority cleanup efforts.
Advocate for completion of DOE’s Natural Gas Pipeline Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS), followed by sustained progress on pipeline design and
construction. Work to ensure that DOE officials understand that expected
development in Franklin County could preclude siting the pipeline in the near
future.
Continue efforts to enhance information sharing and coordinated messaging
between DOE, prime contractors, local governments and community
organizations.
Support efforts to restart the licensing process for Yucca Mountain, including
advocating for the necessary funding.
Continue to advocate for DOE to transfer the remaining two parcels along Horn
Rapids Road that were excluded from the 2015 transfer.
Continue to work with DOE on the transfer of railroad assets extending north
from Horn Rapids Road to the Energy Northwest Site.
Continue presenting the Tri-Cities’ vision for more public access to the Hanford
site and Hanford Reach National Monument, including Rattlesnake Mountain.
Shoreline Reconveyance
TRIDEC will continue to advocate for the transfer of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers-
owned property and easements in the Tri-City area to the local jurisdictions where it is
located. The goal is to work with the cities of Kennewick, Pasco, Richland, along with
Benton and Franklin Counties to identify exactly which lands they would like to take
ownership of, and then work with Congressional offices to include legislation in the
FY2020 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). This effort will likely include
significant additional engagement with key stakeholder groups including area tribes
and the broader Tri-City community.
Page 30 of 105
2019 Plan of Work | Page 14
Manhattan Project National Historical Park (MAPR)
The FY15 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) contained a provision to
establish the Manhattan Project National Historical Park (MAPR) at Hanford, Oak Ridge
and Los Alamos. In early 2015, TRIDEC and Visit Tri-Cities formed the Tri-Cities
National Park Committee, comprised of the four local mayors, three area counties that
contain DOE land, the Port of Benton, the B Reactor Museum Association (BRMA),
TRIDEC and Visit Tri-Cities.
This committee has been working closely with both DOE and the National Park Service
to enhance the park’s development and increase public access.
Federal Programs Actions:
Advocate for expansion of MAPR boundaries and transfer of responsibilities from
DOE’s Office of Environmental Management (EM) to DOE’s Office of Legacy
Management (LM), as requested by the Tri-Cities National Park Committee in
October 2017.
Advocate for dedicated MAPR funding to be included in the President’s FY20
budget request through DOE’s Office of Legacy Management.
Work with congressional offices to provide $30 million in appropriations funding
for MAPR to be shared across all three sites. This funding would be used to
address urgent infrastructure needs such as the B Reactor roof.
Continue to support the increasing number and variety of programming and
tours associated with the National Park.
Support establishment of a “Friends of the Park” group to address increasing
funding needs at the park.
MID-COLUMBIA ENERGY INITIATIVE (MCEI)
MCEI was originally formed to explore the development of an “energy park” on federal
land as the active cleanup footprint at the Hanford site decreases. MCEI quickly
became a much broader effort to expand the local economy, particularly in the energy
sector, by capitalizing on the region’s highly-skilled workforce, available land and
inexpensive electricity.
On Sept. 30, 2015 TRIDEC was successful in receiving 1,641 acres of Hanford land
following nearly six years of community effort (a request that started with the
formation of MCEI). This property has subsequently been transferred to the City of
Richland, the Port of Benton and Energy Northwest for future economic development.
Page 31 of 105
2019 Plan of Work | Page 15
From an initial invitation list of twenty, MCEI now has approximately 120 members
including representatives from area utilities, manufacturers, DOE, PNNL, WSU Tri-
Cities and professional services firms. In September 2017, MCEI formed a Water Policy
Subcommittee to specifically focus on the nexus between water, power generation and
the Tri-City community.
Additional Federal Programs Actions:
Continue strong support for the Columbia Generating Station, which provides
affordable, carbon-free energy to the Pacific Northwest.
Continue to support renewable energy generation, storage, and integration
projects, along with associated research and development.
Support continued development of programs to transfer technologies from
PNNL to industry, with a focus on keeping those companies local.
Continue to actively explore opportunities for local manufacturing, assembly and
training associated with new commercial nuclear technologies, including Small
Modular Reactors (SMRs).
Continue to support future Washington State Clean Energy Summits.
Support Neoen efforts to develop a 20-megawatt solar facility on Energy
Northwest land that was part of the 2015 transfer.
Grow region’s presence in grid and cyber security (training/technology
development and operations).
Monitor the Columbia River Treaty, advocate and provide input as necessary.
Snake River Dams
TRIDEC will continue to vigorously advocate for retention of the four lower Snake River
Dams which are vital to the region’s economy, providing clean energy generation,
navigation and irrigation. Efforts will include support for legislative and executive
branch actions that would require continued operation of the Federal Columbia River
Hydropower System (FCRPS) in accordance with the 2014 Biological Opinion (BiOp).
TRIDEC will also work with community partners to engage in public relations efforts
such as public events and media outreach that are supportive of the dams.
COMMUNICATION PLAN
Online Web Presence
Today, a majority of site selection projects, directed either by companies or by site
location consultants, begin on the Internet. An increasing number of businesses,
TRIDEC Member Investors and individuals rely on TRIDEC’s website for information on
the Tri-Cities and TRIDEC. Consequently, web-based research demands that
information be current and accurate.
Page 32 of 105
2019 Plan of Work | Page 16
TRIDEC launched its current new web site, www.TryTri-Cities.org, in May 2015. The
site continues to be updated to incorporate new features and to make it more user
friendly.
During 2019, TRIDEC will discontinue a separate website for the Food and Beverage
Retention and Expansion Opportunities (FABREO) Program. The FABREO information
will be incorporated into the TRIDEC website.
TRIDEC will continue to license Zoom Prospector (www.TryTriCitiesSites.org) again in
2019. Zoom Prospector is a geographic information system (GIS) based product
designed to showcase area sites and available buildings. In addition to real estate
information, the website allows users to access a variety of economic and demographic
data at distance intervals surrounding targeted locations.
TRIDEC will continue striving to advance our search engine optimization (SEO),
ensuring that TRIDEC’s site(s) are at or near the top of searches.
Social Media Plan
Social media is a valuable tool that:
Increases brand recognition and loyalty.
Connects with industry leaders and decision makers.
Builds relationships with a targeted audience.
This plan includes the objectives that will be used to accomplish the following social
media goals:
Increase brand (Tri-Cities, WA) recognition.
Identify and engage potential site selectors/companies/decision makers.
Create community engagement on hot topics and issues.
Communicate why consultants and businesses should Try Tri-Cities.
Highlight what makes Tri-Cities the brighter, bolder, smarter choice for business.
Encourage staff, board members, members to be active participants in social
media.
Create a Tri-Cities hashtag used throughout social media #BolderTriCities
#TryTriCities #WhyTriCities
Begin weekly posts on social media featuring demographic facts about the Tri-
Cities and the capabilities of Zoom Prospector to increase visits to the TRIDEC
website and use of the GIS tool.

- Updated monthly online
Target Industry Business Cases updated to reflect industry changes
SMALL BUSINESS RESOURCES
Small Business Development Center (SBDC)
The SBDC has been the TRIDEC supported resource for providing management
assistance to small businesses - companies with fewer than 500 employees. The Center
has been located within the TRIDEC office and has offered a host of services designed
to help grow businesses, achieve higher profits and improve operations.
After an extended period without a Director, the SBDC has re-opened at TRIDEC with
limited office hours through the end of 2018 and beginning in 2019 the office will be
staffed five days a week.
SCORE (Senior Corp of Retired Executives)
The SCORE program provides business counseling to the small businesses in the area
and is headquartered within the TRIDEC offices. During 2018 SCORE volunteers
conducted first time counseling sessions with over 130 local individuals who had or were
thinking about starting a business. Follow-on sessions were held with several hundred
businesses or potential business startups.
WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT
Growing and expanding businesses require skilled workers for all levels within their
organizations. With increasing frequency, workforce development is viewed as an
important contributor to successful economic development and a healthy economy.
Educational institutions, training facilities, labor unions, WorkSource Columbia Basin,
and the Benton-Franklin Workforce Development Council all play important roles in
Page 35 of 105
2019 Plan of Work | Page 19
local workforce development efforts and all partner with TRIDEC from time to time on
various issues or projects.
Successful manufacturing is a constantly moving target. TRIDEC will continue to
provide educational and workforce development opportunities to help local
manufacturers succeed through the following:
Partner with Impact Washington to provide manufacturing training events based
on needs identified by the manufacturing community.
Continue to provide export training in collaboration with such organizations as
the Export-Import Bank of the United States, the Export Finance Assistance
Center of Washington, the U.S. Commercial Service, the Washington State
Department of Commerce, the Washington State Department of Agriculture and
the Hong Kong Trade Development Council.

Taxes are major revenue sources and Public Safety salaries and benefits are major expenses within this fund.Regular and over-time labor is on track, however, overtime patterns are varies with each department. For e.g., Fire Department expends most of its overtime during fire season. Staff will continue to track overtime patterns, and notify Council if/when any action is needed.City is expected to be on track for non labor expenses. Non-Departmental expenditure, that mainly consist of non labor cost is higher than elapsed time. This is to be expected due to large payment of insurance premium made in the begining of the year. General fund could be expected to subsidize Street fund for large portion of snow removal cost. Street fund receives revenue from General fund, as well as Motor Vehicle Fuel Tax from State to operate. By design, the fund maintains low level of fund balance and will need support to absorb impact of this year's snow event. Overtime in Fire Department is expected to be higher than budgeted, but staff is looking into mitigation of the increased cost before requesting further appropriation. Staff will notify Council when action is needed. Page 46 of 105

IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
The applicant owns two parcels located directly north of the portion of East Duluth
Street he seeks to vacate, as well as one parcel directly south (parcel #s 113 -502-095,
113-502-139, and 113-503-060). Parcel #113-502-139 to the north will acquire the
extent of the right-of-way, if vacated. The vacation will not result in any landlocked
parcels.
As recommended at the regular meeting on July 15, 2019, Council set August 5, 2019
as the date to consider the proposed vacation in a public hearing.
V. DISCUSSION:
Page 49 of 105
Per PMC 12.40 the Council may require compensation for vacated rights-of-way.
However, this proposal involves East Duluth Street, which has been determined in the
Oregon Avenue Circulation Plan to be unnecessary. The Circulation Plan identifies
streets that must be retained for proper circulation and streets that may be vacated.
Thus, because it has been previously determined that East Duluth Street may be
vacated, no compensation is necessary.
The City Engineering Department has reviewed the proposal and has determined the
vacation of the right-of-way to be non problematic. Further, no utility provider has
indicated issue with the vacation.
Staff recommends Council's favorable consideration of the vacation request.

527 West Bonneville Street from C-1 to R-1 and further, authorize publication by

III. FISCAL IMPACT:

IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
On June 12, 2019 the Hearing Examiner conducted a public hearing to consider a
request to rezone 527 W Bonneville Street from C-1 (Retail Business) to R-1 (Low
Density Residential). The hearing was continued to the July 10, 2019 meeting.
Following the conduct of a public hearing, the Hearing Examiner reasoned it would be
appropriate to rezone the subject parcel to R-1 and is recommending Council approval
of the requested rezone as contained in the Staff Report.
V. DISCUSSION:
Page 56 of 105
The applicant is seeking to rezone the subject site from C-1 to R-1 in order to use or
sell the house structure located on the site for residential purposes. Built in 1923, the
house has been used as a single-family dwelling, a halfway house, and a church.
Though the house was constructed with the intention of a residential use, the
implementation of the C-1 (Retail Business) zoning district in this area resulted in the
house's nonconformity. It is unknown exactly when the property and area acquired the
C-1 zoning, but staff believes this occurred pre-1974.
Regardless, the Comprehensive Plan designates this parcel as Low Density Residential.
A rezone of the property to R-1 will bring the property and structure into conformance
with the Plan.

in order to use the existing dwelling structure as living space. Dwelling units are not listed as a permitted use
in the C-1 zoning chapter of the PMC; however, dwelling units can be permitted via Special Permit if they are
located above the first floor of a building designed or intended to be used as a business. Because such does
not apply in this case, the applicant requires rezone approval.
According to the Franklin County Assessor’s records, the dwelling structure was built in the year 1923 and
used as a residence. Then, from 1971 until around 1995, it was used as a halfway house/work release facility.
A Special Permit for a church was granted for this property in 2012, but the applicant appears to never have
applied for an Occupancy Registration following approval. According to the Special Permit application, the
building was already being used as a parsonage and church illegally. In the time since, the building has likely
continued as a church and residence without the City’s knowledge until March of 2019 when the City’s Code
Enforcement department opened a code case against the property.
Because documents indicating the zoning history of the property and the area are not able to be easily
located, it is difficult to pinpoint when the property acquired the C-1 zoning classification. According to a City
of Pasco zoning book of unknown age which the Planning Department has on-hand, the property was—at
one point in time—zoned for office uses. Beginning from at least 1974, the property was then rezoned to C-
1.
There are approximately five on-street angled parking stalls directly in front of the property on Bonneville
Street designed for commercial uses. The rear portion of the site abutting the alley contains a small parking
pad.
Rezone Criteria
The initial review criteria for considering a rezone application are explained in PMC. 25.88.030. The criteria
are listed below as follows:
1. The date the existing zone became effective:
It is unknown when the current zoning classification of C-1 became effective. Staff believes this date was pre-
1974.
2. The changed conditions, which are alleged to warrant other or additional zoning:
After the property acquired the C-1 zoning classification, an early version of Pasco’s Comprehensive Plan
designated the site and surrounding area for Mixed Residential development. This designation does not
include the C-1 zone in the list of permitted zoning districts. A rezone of the property to R-1 is in conformance
with the policies of the Comprehensive Plan and the Plan’s Zoning Map.
3. Facts to justify the change on the basis of advancing the public health, safety and general welfare:
The proposed zoning request is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan which has been determined to be in
the best interest of advancing public health, safety and general welfare of the community. The rezone will
allow for the legal residence in one dwelling unit.

4. The effect it will have on the value and character of the adjacent property and the Comprehensive
Plan:
A change in zoning classification may ultimately result in the establishment of a legal single-family residential
use consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The existing dwelling structure outwardly appears to be a
residence but may require additional renovations inside to bring the structure up to code. Because the
surrounding uses are either single-family or multi-family homes, the rezone will not affect the value or
character of the neighborhood.
5. The effect on the property owner or owners if the request is not granted:
The property owner may use the structure as a commercial business and may not reside in the building.
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 Hearing Examiner may add additional findings to this
listing as the result of factual testimony and evidence submitted during the open record hearing.
1. The applicant has applied to rezone one parcel from C-1 (Retail Business) to R-1 (Low Density
Residential)
2. The applicant is seeking to rezone in order to permit a legal single-family residence on the property.
3. The site is within the Pasco Urban Growth Boundary.
4. The State Growth Management Act requires urban growth and urban densities to occur within the
Urban Growth Boundaries.
5. The site currently contains one dwelling structure that outwardly appears to be a house.
6. The site is not considered a critical area, a mineral resource area, or a wetland.
7. The Comprehensive Plan identifies the site for Mixed Residential development, which permits the
following zones: RS-20, RS-12, RS-1, and R-1, R-2, and R-3.
8. Mixed Residential development is described in the Comprehensive Plan as 5 to 20 dwelling units per
acre.
9. The current zoning classification of C-1 does not permit dwelling units unless said dwelling units are
approved via Special Permit and are above the first floor of a building designed or intended to be
used as a retail business.
10. The date the current zoning classification was adopted is unknown but was likely pre-1974.
11. The property was zoned for office uses at some point in time before it acquired the C-1 zoning
classification.
12. The Mixed Residential zoning designation was adopted with an early version of Pasco’s
Comprehensive Plan.
13. The dwelling structure was built in 1923 and used as a residence.
14. From 1971 until around 1995, the structure was used as a halfway house/work release facility.
15. The dwelling structure was used as an illegal parsonage and church during a period of time after
1995.
Page 63 of 105

16. A Special Permit for a church was granted for the property in 2012, but the applicant never applied
for an Occupancy Registration following approval.
17. The dwelling structure was used as a church and living space without the City’s knowledge until
March of 2019.
18. Public notice was issued on May 28, 2019 per requirements of PMC 25.210.040.
TENTATIVE CONCLUSIONS BASED ON INITIAL STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT
Before recommending approval or denial of a rezone the Hearing Examiner must develop findings of fact
from which to draw his/her conclusions based upon the criteria listed in PMC 25.86.060. The criteria are as
follows:
1. The proposal is in accordance with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
The proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map and Comprehensive Plan Policy Land
Use Goals. Mixed Re sidential development suggests 5 to 20 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 Mixed Residential uses when or where sewer is available, there is a
market demand for new home sites, and the location is convenient to major circulation routes.
2. The effect of the proposal on the immediate vicinity will not be materially detrimental.
The immediate area is shown in the Comprehensive Plan for Mixed or Low Density Residential zoning. The
proposed rezone is consistent with the referenced Plan; as such, this proposal will not be materially
detrimental to future nearby developments that will need to conform to the provision of the Plan.
3. There is merit and value in the proposal for the community as a whole.
The proposed zoning is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map. Further, a rezone of the
property will relieve its non-conforming status and allow for legal residence. The proposal is supported by
land use goals and policies contained in the Comprehensive Plan.
4. Conditions should be imposed in order to mitigate any significant adverse impacts from the proposal.
No special conditions are proposed. The dwelling structure may be used as a residence should the rezone be
approved; however, the church gathering operation must cease.
5. A Concomitant Agreement should be entered into between the City and the petitioner, and if so, the
terms and conditions of such an agreement.
A Concomitant Agreement is not necessary for this application.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval for the proposed rezone of 527 W Bonneville Street from C-1 to R-1.

CITY OF PASCO HEARING EXAMINER
FINDINGS OF FACT, CONCLUSIONS OF LAW, AND RECOMMENDATION
Rezone MF# Z 2019-006, Kinnaman Property
July 11, 2019
_______________________________________________
1. FINDINGS OF FACT
1.1 Proposal. Request for C-1 to R-1 rezone to recognize a site's residential use. The
site has been developed with a single family residence since 1923, although the present C-1
zoning prohibits dwelling units unless above a commercial building's main floor. The rezone
would conform the zoning to reflect how the site and surrounding area is developed.
1.2 Applicant/Property Owner/Location:
Applicant/Property Owner: John Kinnaman, 321-38 Henriot Road, Winlock, WA
98596
Location: 527 West Bonneville Street, Pasco, WA. Lots 17 to 19, Block 8,
Gerry's Addition. Parcel No. 112-053-233.
1.3 Site Use. The 10,499 square foot site is developed with a single family home,
which was a halfway house or work release facility from 1971 to 1995, and subsequently a
church, with a Special Use Permit granted in 2012. However, an Occupancy Registration was
never applied for, and a code case was opened in March. Sewer and water serve the site, and the
Applicant intends to sell the property for residential use.
1.4 Land Use Designations/Site and Surrounding Area. The Comprehensive Plan
designates the site as Mixed Residential, and authorizes the requested R-1 zoning as an
implementing zone where there is sewer service, market demand, and major circulation routes.1
The site is largely surrounded by residential uses:
North: R-3/R-4 zoning with single and multi-family dwellings
East: C-1 zoning with single and multi-family dwellings
South: C-1 zoning with single and multi-family dwellings and a church
West: R-1 zoning with single and multi-family dwellings
With the area's established residential uses and urban utility services, along with the
supporting street grid and major roadways, the rezone meets Comprehensive Plan policies and
objectives.2

Recommendation, Kinnaman Rezone MF# Z 2019-006
1.5 Evidence Reviewed. The Examiner admitted the Staff Report on June 12, which
attached photographs of the site and area and documented surrounding zoning (Exhibit 1). An
updated Staff Report (Exhibit 2) and DNS (Exhibit 3) were admitted on July 10. The two Staff
Reports are incorporated into the Findings. The Examiner conducted a site visit on June 12,
2019, between about 4:00 and 4:30 P.M.
1.6 SEPA (State Environmental Policy Act, Ch. 43.21C RCW). The Department
issued a DNS, or Determination of Non-Significance.3 No appeals were filed or comments
received. SEPA review is complete.
1.7 Hearing. A properly noticed hearing was held on June 12, 2019, and continued
to July 10, 2019.4 Planning Staff summarized the proposal and provided background history on
the site's use. The Applicant further addressed the proposal and raised procedural questions on
the review process. The property is under contract for sale, and the requested rezone is needed
before an anticipated month end closing in July. The Examiner explained that the hearing would
be continued to July 10 to allow completion of the SEPA process. A recommendation would
issue shortly thereafter, with the Council making the final decision at the next earliest available
Council meeting. While this may occur in July, given uncertainties on scheduling, Staff
recommended the Applicant extend the closing date.
1.8 Rezone Considerations. The rezone consistently implements the Comprehensive
Plan, and is in accord with its goals and policies, including those providing for protecting
existing house stock and neighborhoods.5 As a pre-existing residence within an established
residential neighborhood, the rezone would not be materially detrimental to uses in the vicinity.
Correcting the zoning and recognizing the intended use of the land, and how it is has been
developed for residential use, has community merit and value. There are no significant adverse
impacts or outstanding issues to address, so neither a concomitant agreement or mitigation
conditions are needed.
2. CONCLUSIONS
The Examiner may issue a rezone recommendation based on whether:
(a) The proposal is in accord with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive
Plan;
(b) The effect of the proposal on the immediate vicinity will be materially
detrimental;
3 Exhibit 3 (DNS).

and further, authorize publication by summary only.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
None
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
On June 12 and continued to July 10, 2019 the Hearing Examiner held public hearings
to consider a request to rezone two isolated 2,200 square-foot parcels from R-2 to I-1 at
28 West "A" Street.
Following the conduct of the public hearings, the Hearing Examiner recommended
denial of the applicant's request for a rezone from R-2 (Medium Density Residential) to
I-1 (Light Industrial), but recommended approval of a rezone to C -3 (General
Business) as that would accommodate the applicant's plans and retain conformance
with the underlying Comprehensive Plan designation of "Commercial."
An additional lot adjacent to the east is also recommended to be rezoned to C-3.
Page 76 of 105
V. DISCUSSION:
The Comprehensive Plan designates the property Commercial, which allows for "O"
(Office), BP (Business Park), C-1 (Retail Business), C-2 (Central Business District), C-
3 (General Business), or CR (Regional commercial) zoning. The Commercial
designation is described as including “Neighborhood, community and regional
shopping and specialty centers, business parks, service and office uses.”
The Hearing Examiner has recommended the parcels be rezoned to C -3 (General
Business), which would allow for the building materials layout yard use while still
accommodating the Comprehensive Plan “Commercial” Land Use desi gnation.

site amenity standards, when expansion and/or new facilities are proposed.
ED‐3‐E Policy: Use sufficient landscaping and appropriate screening as well as other methods to
buffer less intensive uses from utilitarian parts of commercial and industrial facilities.
6. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The City of Pasco is the lead agency for this project. An
environmental determination of non‐significance was issued for this proposal on June 21, 2019.
ANALYSIS
Applicant is seeking to rezone the parcel located at 28 W. A St (on the north side of West “A” Street,
directly adjacent a building materials layout yard) from R‐2 (Medium Density Residential) to I‐1 (Light
Industrial), in anticipation of constructing an industrial building for building materials storage on the site.
The site contains 2,268 square feet or approximately .052 acres, and was formerly part of the Burlington
Northern Railroad (BNRR) Right‐of‐Way (subsequently Burlington Northern Santa Fe or BNSF). The site
was developed with railroad housing in the 1890s. Part of the land containing the railroad houses was sold
off to private homeowners, leaving a few houses straddling railroad right‐of‐way and private ownership
lots. The partial lots were occupied by two homes built for railroad workers in the 1890s.
The adjacent building materials layout yard surrounds the parcel in question on three sides to the north,
west, and east, contains around 3.6 acres, and is developed with a 11,614 square foot warehouse space
and wholesale/retail office. Properties further to the east are zoned R‐2 and developed with 1890s era
railroad houses; properties across “A” Street to the south have been developed with single‐family
residential units.
The property has recently been sold to the owners of the adjacent property, and the house demolished.
Owners of the building materials layout yard wish to expand their operation by constructing a 24,000
square‐foot warehouse which would extend over onto the former housing lot. Unfortunately, the parcel
was zoned R‐2 to accommodate the former railroad houses sometime before 1974. Furthermore, the
entire area has been designated “commercial” since the 1980 Comprehensive Plan, despite having been
zoned Industrial many years before.
The Comprehensive Plan designates the property Commercial, which allows for "O" (Office), BP (Business
Park), C‐1 (Retail Business), C‐2 (Central Business District), C‐3 (General Business), or CR (Regional
commercial) zoning. The Commercial designation is described as including “Neighborhood, community
and regional shopping and specialty centers, business parks, service and office uses.”
Staff has recommended the parcel and the adjoining lot 1, Block 4 of Fann’s Addition (also currently zoned
R‐2) be rezoned to C‐3 (General Commercial), which would allow for the building materials layout yard
use while still accommodating the Comprehensive Plan “Commercial” Land Use designation. However,
applicant has rejected staff’s proposal and prefers the I‐1 designation so that the property be zoned
consistently.
Given the insignificant size of the parcel vis‐à‐vis the surrounding I‐1 zoning, the I‐1 designation would
likely have very little effect on the surrounding neighborhood and the city as a whole.
Page 81 of 105

Rezone Criteria
The initial review criteria for considering a rezone application are explained in PMC. 25.88.030. The criteria
are listed below as follows:
1. The date the existing zone became effective:
The current zoning classification has been in place without change since at least 1974.
2. The changed conditions, which are alleged to warrant other or additional zoning:
The former railroad housing lot has been sold to the adjacent property owner and the house has been
demolished. The current owners wish to construct a building which would extend onto the former
residential property. The adjacent 3.6‐acre lot cannot be developed as planned due to the R‐2 zoning on
the 2,268‐square‐foot lot.
3. Facts to justify the change on the basis of advancing the public health, safety and general welfare:
The proposed zoning request for I‐1 zoning is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, which allows
for "O," BP, C‐1, C‐2, C‐3, or CR zoning; however, the lot is insignificant vis‐à‐vis the existing I‐1 zoning on
the parcel.
4. The effect it will have on the value and character of the adjacent property and the Comprehensive
Plan:
A change in zoning classification may ultimately result in the development of a new warehouse building at
the location. The Comprehensive Plan allows for "O," BP, C‐1, C‐2, C‐3, or CR zoning at the site. The
character of the surrounding properties is mostly industrial to the north, and west with access to “A” Street,
a minor arterial street.
5. The effect on the property owner or owners if the request is not granted:
If the property is not rezoned to I‐1 it will continue to be limited by the constraints of the R‐2 zoning
designation, which currently allows for the following: Single‐family dwellings; New factory‐assembled
homes; Two‐family dwellings; Multiple dwellings; gardening or fruit raising.
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. Public notice of this hearing was sent to property owners within 300 feet of the property on
May 17, 2019 and posted in the Tri‐City Herald on May 28, 2019.
2. Applicant is seeking to rezone the parcel located at 28 West “A” Street from R‐2 (Medium
Density Residential) to I‐1 (Light Industrial).
3. Applicant wishes to expand the current operation by constructing an industrial building on the
site.
4. The parcel is directly adjacent and surrounded on three sides by a building materials layout yard.
5. The site contains 2,268 square feet or approximately .052 acres.
6. The site was formerly part of the BNSF Right‐of‐Way).
7. The site was developed with railroad housing in the 1890s.
8. Part of the land containing the railroad houses was sold off to private homeowners; the houses
straddled railroad right‐of‐way and private ownership lots.

9. The adjacent building materials layout yard surrounds the parcel in question on three sides to
the north, west, and east,
10. The adjacent building materials layout yard contains around 3.6 acres
11. The adjacent building materials layout yard is developed with a 11,614 square‐foot warehouse.
12. Properties further to the east are zoned R‐2 and developed with railroad houses.
13. properties across “A” Street to the south are developed with single‐family residential units.
14. The property has recently been sold to the owners of the adjacent property.
15. The house has been demolished.
16. Owners of the building materials layout yard wish to construct a 24,000 square‐foot warehouse.
17. The desired warehouse would extend over onto the former housing lot.
18. The parcel was zoned R‐2 to accommodate the former railroad houses.
19. The R‐2 zoning has been in place from sometime before 1974.
20. The entire area has been designated “commercial” since the 1980 Comprehensive Plan
21. The adjoining site has been zoned Industrial for many years.
22. The Comprehensive Plan designates the property Commercial.
23. The Commercial Land Use designation allows for "O" (Office), BP (Business Park), C‐1 (Retail
Business), C‐2 (Central Business District), C‐3 (General Business), or CR (Regional commercial)
zoning.
24. The Commercial Land Use designation is described in the Comprehensive Plan as including
“Neighborhood, community and regional shopping and specialty centers, business parks, service
and office uses.”
25. Staff recommends the property be rezoned to C‐3 (General Commercial), which would allow for
the building materials layout yard use while still accommodating the Comprehensive Plan
“Commercial” Land Use designation.
26. Staff also recommends the adjoining lot 1, Block 4 of Fann’s Addition (also currently zoned R‐2)
be rezoned to C‐3.
27. Applicant rejects staff’s recommendation and prefers I‐1 zoning.
28. The “Commercial” Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designation is contrary to the proposed I‐
1 zoning designation; however, the amount of land in question (2,268 square feet) and the
existing I‐1 zoning surrounding the parcel may constitute an extenuating circumstance.
29. A concomitant agreement would not be required.
TENTATIVE CONCLUSIONS BASED ON INITIAL STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT
Before recommending approval or denial of a rezone, the Planning Commission must develop findings of
fact from which to draw its conclusions based upon the criteria listed in PMC 25.210.060. The criteria are
as follows:
1. The proposal is in accordance with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
The proposal is not in accordance with the Comprehensive plan; under the current Comprehensive Plan
land use designations of “Commercial” the property may be zoned "O," BP, C‐1, C‐2, C‐3, or CR. The
Commercial designation is described as including “Neighborhood, community and regional shopping and
specialty centers, business parks, service and office uses.” However, the Comprehensive Plan also requires
the City to consider adjacent uses when deciding zoning. The property to the north, east, and west is
zoned I‐1.
Policy LU‐4‐A urges the city to “Locate commercial facilities at major street intersections to avoid
commercial sprawl and avoid disruptions of residential neighborhoods, and leverage major infrastructure
Page 83 of 105
5
availability,” and Policy ED‐2‐B states “Encourage development of a wide range of commercial and
industrial uses strategically located to support local and regional needs.” The proposed use is located
along West “A” Street, a minor arterial street.
Policy LU‐3‐C requires the City to “Maintain and apply design standards and guidelines that will result in
attractive and efficient centers,” and Goal Ed‐2, “assure appropriate location and design of commercial
and industrial facilities.” Goal Ed‐3, “maintain development standards and design guidelines to ensure
that commercial and industrial developments are good neighbors,” and Policy ED‐3‐A “Enhance
compatibility of commercial and industrial development with residential and mixed use neighborhoods
through the use of landscaping, screening, and superior building design standards and guidelines.” City
code requires ten feet of landscaping, as well as screening of outdoor storage along arterial streets.
2. The effect of the proposal on the immediate vicinity will not be materially detrimental.
The immediate area is shown in the Comprehensive Plan for Commercial and Mixed Residential zoning.
The Commercial designated areas may be zoned "O," BP, C‐1, C‐2, C‐3, or CR, as appropriate. The Mixed
Residential designation allows for R‐S‐20, R‐S‐12, R‐S‐1, and R‐1 thru R‐3 zoning district Uses permitted in
the I‐1 district include the following:
(1) All uses permitted in the C‐3 district;
(2) Building material storage yard;
(3) Trucking, express and storage yards;
(4) Contractor’s plant or storage yards;
(5) Laboratories, experimental;
(7) Automotive assembly and repair;
(8) Kennels;
(9) Creamery, bottling, ice manufacture and cold storage plant;
(10) Blacksmith, welding or other metal shops, excluding punch presses over 20 tons rated
capacity, drop hammers, and the like;
(11) The manufacturing, compounding, processing, packaging of cosmetics, pharmacology and
food products, except fish and meat products, and the reducing and refining of fats and oils;
(12) Printing plant; and
(13) Parking lots within 500 feet of a C‐2 district boundary, provided such lots are paved and the
development complies with the landscape and fencing requirements of the C‐1 district, as
enumerated in PMC 25.85.020(13). .
While the expansion of the current use will not substantially alter the existing character of the
neighborhood, the above uses are also permitted in the I‐1 zoning district (They are already allowed on
the surrounding property to the north, east and west).
3. There is merit and value in the proposal for the community as a whole.
The proposed zoning is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map; however, the site is
surrounded by I‐1 zoning on three sides and consists of 2,268 square feet. While the site is proximal to
residential zoning districts to the south, it is also located along West “A” Street, a minor arterial and truck
route; as such it has potential of being a benefit to the community if proper aesthetic considerations are

followed to mitigate its proximity to residential neighborhoods. City code requires ten feet of landscaping,
as well as screening of outdoor storage along arterial streets.
4. Conditions should be imposed in order to mitigate any significant adverse impacts from the
proposal.
The Pasco Municipal Code includes design standards for both commercial and residential development.
City code requires ten feet of landscaping, as well as screening of outdoor storage along arterial streets.
As such, no special conditions would be required.
5. A Concomitant Agreement should be entered into between the City and the petitioner, and if so,
the terms and conditions of such an agreement.
A concomitant agreement would not be required in this circumstance.

CITY OF PASCO HEARING EXAMINER
FINDINGS OF FACT, CONCLUSIONS OF LAW, AND RECOMMENDATION
Rezone MF# Z 2019-005, Walker/Stone
July 17, 2019
_______________________________________________
1. FINDINGS OF FACT
1.1 Proposal. Rezone request to change R-2 (Medium Density Residential) zoning to
I-1 (Light Industrial) or C-3 (General Business) consistent with the adjacent industrial zoning
and use on property the Applicant also owns.
1.2 Applicant/Property Owner/Location:
Applicant/Property Owner: LB Stone Properties #091 LLC, P.O. Box 3949,
Spokane, WA 99330
Location: 28 West A Street, (Parcel #112-060-047) and the southeast portion of
216 S 6th Avenue (Parcel #112-060-057), in Pasco, WA.
1.3 Site Use. The two small urban lots are adjacent to a building materials layout
yard for a lumber yard, with access from West "A" Street, and are provided with sewer and water
The land was formerly part of the Burlington Northern Railroad Right-of-Way, and had been
developed with railroad housing in the 1890's. The land was recently sold and an existing home
demolished. The Applicant wishes to expand their lumber yard operation on the larger, adjacent
3.6 acre lot by constructing a 24,000 square foot warehouse which would extend over at least one
of the lots proposed for rezone. Unfortunately, these parcels were zoned R-2 for the railroad
housing. Inconsistent with this zoning, the Plan designates the two lots as Commercial, allowing
for C-3 (General Business) zoning.
Rezoning the two lots would allow for the proposed use,1 and is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan's Commercial designation. The Applicant prefers the I-1 zoning
designation, but at the July 10 hearing testified that C-3 would authorize the planned use, so is
acceptable. The Planning Department recommended C-3 based on Plan consistency, but both the
Department and Applicant agreed that the originally requested I-1 industrial zoning is a better
match.
1.4 Land Use Designations/Site and Surrounding Area. The Comprehensive Plan
designates the site as Commercial, and authorizes the requested C-3 zoning as an implementing

pg. 2.

Recommendation, Walker Stone Rezone MF# Z 2019-005
zone.2 The designation does not authorize I-1 zoning. The site is largely surrounded by
industrial zoning and uses, excepting the R-2 zoning to the east (providing for the old railroad
housing) and also the south across West "A" Street, which is developed with single family
residences.
1.5 Evidence Reviewed. The Examiner admitted the Staff Report on June 12, which
attached photographs of the site and area and documented surrounding zoning (Exhibit 1). An
updated Staff Report (Exhibit 2) and DNS (Exhibit 3) were admitted on July 10. Except as
revised, the two Staff Reports are incorporated. The Examiner conducted a site visit on June 12,
2019, between about 4:00 and 4:30 P.M.
1.6 SEPA (State Environmental Policy Act, Ch. 43.21C RCW). The Department
issued a DNS, or Determination of Non-Significance.3 No appeals were filed or comments
received. SEPA review is complete.
1.7 Hearing. A properly noticed hearing was held on June 12, 2019, and continued
to July 10, 2019, to allow SEPA review to be completed.4 On June 12, Planning Staff
summarized the proposal and provided background on the site's use. The Applicant further
addressed the proposal. On July 10, the Applicant testified that C-3 was consistent with the use
their pending building permit would authorize, so did not object to this designation. However,
the Department and Applicant agreed that I-1 is the better designation. No other person
indicated a wish to testify on either hearing day.
1.8 Rezone Considerations. A rezone to C-3 consistently implements the
Comprehensive Plan, and is in accord with its goals and policies. These objectives include
locating commercial facilities at major street intersections to avoid commercial sprawl and
residential neighborhood disruption, and leveraging major infrastructure availability.5 As the
Staff Report outlines, numerous Economic Development policies encourage commercial
development compatible with surrounding uses.6
Commercial areas are described as neighborhood, community and regional shopping and
specialty centers, business parks, service and office uses. Criteria to consider are:
Size consistent with market demand
Location conductive to convenient access on major circulation routes
Sewer availability

Land suitable for heavy building sites.7
Industrial areas are described as manufacturing, food processing, storage and wholesale
distribution of equipment and products, hazardous material storage and transportation related
facilities. Criteria to consider for this designation are:
Port of Pasco properties
Land convenient to rail yards
Land convenient to industrial waste water treatment facility
Land convenient to the regional transportation system
Availability of necessary utilities to serve the use
Relatively level land suitable for heavy building sites.8
The proposal certainly follows criteria for a C-3 designation, but with the flat site next to
the railroad area, and its suitability for heavy building and use, the industrial designation is the
best fit. Correcting the zoning and recognizing the intended use of the land, has community
merit and value. There are no significant adverse impacts or outstanding issues to address, so
neither a concomitant agreement or mitigation conditions are needed.
2. CONCLUSIONS
The Examiner may issue a rezone recommendation based on whether:
(a) The proposal is in accord with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive
Plan;
(b) The effect of the proposal on the immediate vicinity will be materially
detrimental;
(c) There is merit and value in the proposal for the community as a whole;
(d) Conditions should be imposed in order to mitigate any significant adverse
impacts from the proposal;
(e) A concomitant agreement should be entered into between the City and the
petitioner, and if so, the terms and conditions of such an agreement.9
As the Findings detail, including at ¶ 1.8, the C-3 rezone follows these criteria and a
concomitant agreement and further mitigation is unnecessary. However, a rezone to I-1, would

AGENDA REPORT
FOR: City Council July 30, 2019
TO: Dave Zabell, City Manager Regular Meeting: 8/5/19
FROM: Steve Worley, Director
Public Works
SUBJECT: PSA Amendment Process Water Treatment Facility - PACE Engineering
I. REFERENCE(S):
Amendment No. 5
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: I move to approve Professional Services Agreement Amendment No. 5
with PACE Engineering and, further, authorize the City Manager to execute the
agreement.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
The following fiscal impacts are shown for the complete PSA, including both the
PWRF Facility Plan and Irrigation Pump Station engineering services:
Original PSA $977,632.00 (Approved)
Amendment #1 No change (Approved)
Amendment #2 $47,380.00 (Approved)
Amendment #3 $61,432.65 (Approved)
Amendment #4 No change (Approved)
Amendment #5 $87,108.20 (Proposed)
Revised Budget $1,173,552.85
All costs associated with this PSA are funded through the $1.5M HAEIFAC Loan
previously awarded to the City.
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
The scope of the PSA with PACE Engineering provided for the development of a
Capital Facilities Plan and Engineering Report relating to the Process Water Treatment
Facility (PWRF) and design for the replacement of the Irrigation Pump Station (IPS).
Page 100 of 105
The IPS is a key element to the operation of the PWRF, pumping pretreated water from
the PWRF out to the 16 farm circles for final treatment/disposal. The current IPS is
beyond its useful life, it has experienced an increasing number of major emergency
repairs in recent years and is considered unreliable.
The need to upgrade the IPS was identified early on; hence the design was performed
simultaneously with the overall Facility Plan, under one PSA.
Council approved the subject Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with PACE
Engineering on August 21, 2017, in the amount of $977,632.00. Four subsequent
amendments have been approved consistent with the City adopted purchasing policy:
• Amendment #1 - a no-cost amendment which extended the completion date of
the agreement to July 31, 2019.
• Amendment #2 - necessary to evaluate an alternate piping alignment to supply
effluent from the 115 MG pond to the Irrigation Pump Station.
• Amendment #3 - needed to capture out of scope services incurred in the design
phase for the IPS Pump Station Improvements.
• Amendment #4 - a no-cost amendment extending the completion date of the
agreement to July 30, 2020.
Design for the replacement of the IPS is complete and the project is currently out to bid
with construction expected to begin in the Fall of 2019.
V. DISCUSSION:
Staff has determined that it would be beneficial to the project to expand the scope of
the PSA slightly, to allow for limited construction management services to be provided
by PACE during the bid and construction phases of the project. A 5th amendment to
the PSA has been negotiated in the amount of $87,108.20 to compensate PACE for
these additional services.
Staff recommends approval of Professional Services Agreement Amendment #5 with
PACE Engineering in the amount of $87,108.20.
