regional aquatic center and the commitment of the City of Pasco Council through the 2018-2019
Council Goals.
PPFD Board Members, Councilmembers Maloney and Milne and City of Pasco staff discussed the
validity of creating a recreational facility (aquatic center) and the Pasco community's support for
the facility.

Mr. Morrissette requested that specific text from page four (4) under "No Sunset Clause on Tax"
paragraphs one and two, within the 2013 White Paper be included within the meeting minutes:
"...
[T]he pivotal reasoning was that, other than the tax and revenue from
operation of the aquatics facility itself, the District would have no other source of
revenue with which to maintain the facility over time. "
"... [T]he Regional PFD does not have general tax revenues available to it for
operations aside from the sales tax which would be used to fund (initially)
construction. "
"... [T]he board wanted a steady funding stream, if needed, to repair, replace or
expand the facility, beyond the projected 25 year term of the bonds. "
Continued discussion among the PPFD Board along with City staff occurred.
Mr. Morrissette asked for comment from Fred LoMoth as to why the private sector has not
proposed and built an aquatic facility.
Mr. LoMoth asked about the annual operational budget and if it included a replacement fund for
capital improvements.
Dr. Jilek moved and Ms. Gillespie seconded a motion to move the executive session to Friday,
February 21, 2020 at 10:00 AM
The PPFD Board concurred that the next special meeting is scheduled for 10:00 AM on Friday,
February 21, 2020 and the executive session will be moved to that meeting.
Adjournment:
There being no other business, the meeting adjourned at 5:36 PM.
