November 16, 2021 PPFD Minutes Page - 2
Old Business:
Mr. Morrissette requested updates to the PowerPoint presentation recently provided to Pasco
City Council as he anticipates using this presentation to the public when the ballot measure is
issued. Then he questioned if the land purchased for an aquatic facility should be paid for
through the bond funds or out of the first-year sales tax funds.
Mr. Ferguson stated that the PPFD Board needs focus on the current proposed resolution for
the submission of a proposition to voters a Sales and Use Tax for funding an aquatic facility
and not decide on the funding of any aspects of an aquatic facility.
Mr. Morrissette asked Mr. Ratkai for the following items for the next PPFD meeting:
1. Update the PowerPoint presentation.
2. A list of Washington State, by county, per capita income.
3. A list of the publicly and privately owned aquatic facilities within the Pacific Northwest
(Washington, Idaho, and Oregon).
4. A report on how the aquatic facility bond revenue and sales tax revenue will be spent; make
a list of where the $ is coming from and how it is spent.
New Business:
• Approval of Proposed Resolution Providing for the Submission of a Proposition to Qualified
Voters of the Pasco Public Facilities District, imposing a 2/10ths of 1% Sales and Use Tax for
the Purpose of Funding an Aquatic Facility and Requesting that the Franklin County Auditor
place the Proposition on the February 8, 2022 Ballot (Eric Ferguson, PPFD Attorney)
Mr. Ferguson discussed the contents of the proposed resolution.
Mr. Dietrich commented on when the best time would be to place this proposition on a ballot
and suggested moving it to April 26, 2022 Special Election Ballot.
Mr. Ferguson instructed the PPFD Board on their responsibilities, RCW requirements and
restrictions that they will need to adhere to once the proposition request is accepted by the
Franklin County Auditor. He will provide a checklist of tasks that will need to be completed
after the issue is on the ballot.
Mr. Dietrich recommended that once the proposition is placed on the ballot, then staff will
need to provide frequent communication, on a regular basis, regarding the status of the required
checklist.
Mr. Morrissette asked if the proposition is moved to the April 26, 2022 ballot, can it be voted
on today and can the PPFD Board continue to develop the presentation materials.
Mr. Ferguson stated that once the resolution to place a proposition on a ballot is passed, then
the PPFD Board must be very careful to provide information regarding the proposition but not
November 16, 2021 PPFD Minutes Page - 3
in a manner that appears to be “for” or “against” the proposition.
PPFD Board, staff, and Mr. Maloney discussion ensued regarding the when the proposed
resolution should be passed and forwarded to Franklin County along with which ballot it
should appear on, February 2022, April 2022, etc. They also discussed the timing for preparing
the informational information, establishing the Pro and Con committees, preparing the process
checklist, etc.
Dr. Jilek moved and Mr. Dietrich seconded a motion to move the approval of proposed
resolution providing for the Submission of a proposition to qualified voters of the Pasco Public
Facilities District, imposing a 2/10ths of 1% sales and use tax for the purpose of funding an
aquatic facility and requesting that the Franklin County Auditor place the proposition on the
April 26, 2022 ballot, to the January 18, 2022, PPFD Board Meeting. The motion carried
