options at this time; 1) to direct staff to prepare an Ordinance and a process to bring
back to Council for action or 2) to direct staff will gather more information and

Proposed Intergovernmental Agreement
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No. _________, authorizing the City
Manager to execute an InterGovernmental Agreement with Benton County for
Aerial Photography and Orthophoto Mapping of Areas within the City of Pasco.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
$18,412.00, plus B&O Tax - General Fund
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
The Aerial Orthophoto project is a regional project wherein a number of public
agencies in the Tri Cities area partner for a single project to update aerial photos
and mapping. The City of Pasco has previously partnered with Franklin County,
who then partnered with Benton County, for aerial flyovers required for updating
our ability to provide current aerial photo maps.
The flyovers are generally done every two (2) years and this year most of the Tri
City agencies are contracting directly with Benton County, which results in a
volume discount for all agencies involved.
V. DISCUSSION:
To provide the most accurate mapping, data, and analysis of urban
development, infrastructure planning, public safety, and other public purposes,
Page 22 of 106
it is recommended to continually update the aerial photos available to the City of
Pasco.
This item was discussed at the February 14th Workshop Meeting.

2022 Orthophoto Update – Revised Quote
Page 30 of 106
Geophex Ltd. Company Confidential
November 18, 2021 Quote# 20210004
Subject: 2022 Orthophoto Update – Revised Quote
To Anthony Von Moos,
Geophex Surveys would like to offer Benton County our professional orthophoto and photogrammetry
services for the County’s 2022 Orthophoto Update project. These services will include 4-inch
orthophotography for the urban areas of the City of Pasco, Prosser, Richland, West Richland and
Kennewick, and 1-foot resolution orthophotography for the entire Benton County area.
Project Areas
The Benton Country project areas are defined by the following diagram.
Benton Project Areas
Kennewick (4-inch) 42.61 mi²
Pasco (4-inch) 72.71 mi²
Prosser (4-inch) 11.91 mi²
Richland (4-inch) 73.60 mi²
West Richland (4-inch) 16.35 mi²
Total Urban Area: 217.18 mi²
Rural Area (1-foot) 1,333 mi²
Acquisition
The Benton County imagery will be captured by a Vexcel UltraCam Eagle M3 large format digital aerial
camera. The 4-inch photography will be flown with industry standard 60% forward and 30% side overlap
and the 1-foot photography will be flown with 80% forward and 30% side overlap. The 1-foot resolution
imagery is to be flown with higher forward overlap as autocorrelation methodology will be utilized to
generate the DEM for the orthophotography.
The aerial photography will be flown in early spring (late February to mid-March) weather permitting
during leaf-off conditions with the 4-inch resolution urban areas being flown as a priority.
Ground Control
The 2022 orthophoto update project will use existing ground control from previous projects wherever
possible, with airborne GPS and IMU data being utilized as a secondary control source for the aerial
photography. Any additional ground control required to meet the project accuracies will be provided by
Benton County in consultation with Geophex Surveys.
Page 31 of 106
Geophex Ltd. Company Confidential
DEM
Geophex Surveys will utilize and update the existing DEM for the 4-inch project areas, using the same
methodology and processes that we have done for the 2014, 2016, 2018 and 2020 Benton County
projects. The 1-foot resolution imagery will be rectified using an autocorrelated DEM generated from the
high forward overlap aerial photography. The autocorrelation methodology will provide a DEM that will be
generated faster and at a cost savings as compared to a traditionally collected DEM, while still providing
high accuracy data that will meet the project specifications for the 1-foot rectifications.
Please note that the auto-correlated 1-foot DEM is an internally generated software product used for the
orthorectifications, and is unavailable for delivery and unusable for other applications.
Processing
All aerial photography will undergo full aerial triangulation processing and will be rectified with current
DEMs to generate high accuracy orthophotography. All imagery will be also be radiometrically balanced
and seamlessly mosaiced to provide orthophotography that is even in tone and consistency. Prior to
delivery, all data will undergo a thorough quality control procedure.
Accuracy
The 2020 Benton County orthophoto update project will meet the required project accuracies of ±1ft
RMSE for the 4-inch resolution and ±3ft RMSE for the 1-foot resolution.
Deliverables
All project areas shall include:
• 4-band color (R,G,B,NiR) orthophoto imagery in 4-inch and 1-ft resolution as required
• Digital orthophoto tiles delivered in uncompressed, rectified GeoTIFF format
• Compressed tiles in ECW, JPG2000 and MrSID formats
• Updated DEM for the 4-inch orthophotography
• An ESRI shapefile containing all seamlines used for the orthophoto tiles
• Final digital data (orthophotography, 4-inch DEM ) shall be delivered on a USB 3 with USB 2 compatible
external hard drive
Schedule
• The aerial photography will be flown in early spring (late February to mid-March) weather
permitting during leaf-off conditions with the 4-inch resolution urban areas being flown as a
priority.
• Final deliverables will be completed approximately 16 weeks following confirmation of successful
acquisition of the aerial imagery.
Ownership
• Benton County and its partner cities will retain 100% ownership of the delivered data with no
restriction on use.
Project Experience
Geophex Surveys has extensive experience successfully providing orthophoto data to Benton County,
with our 2014, 2016, 2018 and 2020 projects meeting all project and accuracy specifications. Providing
geospatial data over multiple years allows for familiarity with specific project requirements resulting in a
more efficient workflow, and accumulation of valuable data including ground control. Geophex Surveys
would look forward to working with Benton County again for their 2022 orthophoto update program.

IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
Around January 3, 2022 Cheri Eisen, Vice Regent of Columbia River Chapter,
National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR) requested
letters of recommendation for Malin Bergstrom regarding her efforts in restoring
and repurposing the Historic World-War-II-era NAS Pasco Air Control Tower and
Museum.
On January 4, 2022 the City of Pasco's Historic Preservation Commission
unanimously approved a letter addressed to Mayor Barajas recommending that

Historic Preservation award.
Page 34 of 106
The Pacific Northwest Aviation Museum, located at the Tri-Cities Airport in Pasco
is a 501c3 non- profit organization dedicated to restoring and repurposing the
NAS Pasco Air Control Tower into a museum to house World War II era aircraft,
store historical data, display relics and memorabilia, and educate the public
concerning the US Navy at the Pasco Airport during the War.
The NAS Pasco tower is an important part of Washington State and local history;
during WW II it was selected as a critical part of Navy training and plane delivery
to the war effort. Initially, the Base was used to train Naval Aviation Cadets in
flying the Stearman N2S "yellow peril” trainer. From January 1944 through the
end of the War, the base was utilized to train fleet aviators and units to augment
the US Navy fleet worldwide.
Restoration of a WWII vintage military facility to current code was a logistical
challenge, and was made possible by Ms. Bergstrom and a dedic ated group of
volunteers.
In addition to those restoration efforts Ms. Berstom has engaged in an ongoing
social media outreach to the general community, visitors and the General
Aviation community of pilots and aviation enthusiasts.
The tower reopened as a museum formally in 2018 and represents a vital re -
connection to history and particular affirmation of the 75 -year-old part of that
continuing legacy.
Ms. Bergstrom has also served, and continues to serve faithfully as a
Commissioner on the Pasco Historic Preservation Commission since July of
2017.
V. DISCUSSION:
Historic Preservation Commission Chair Dan Stafford will will present the
following:
1. A brief update on Historic Preservation Commission activity
2. A recommendation from the HPC that the City of Pasco support the
nomination of Malin Bergstrom for a National Society Daughters of the
American Revolution Historic Preservation award

AGENDA REPORT
FOR: City Council February 18, 2022
TO: Dave Zabell, City Manager City Council Regular
Meeting: 2/22/22
FROM: Richa Sigdel, Finance Director
Finance
SUBJECT: General Fund Monthly Report - December 2021
I. REFERENCE(S):
General Fund Report
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
N/A
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
N/A
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
Attached is the monthly General Fund financial update through December 2021,
the City's major fund. The administration provides quarterly reports to Council
for other non-major funds.
V. DISCUSSION:
During the fiscal year 2021, revenue and expenses for the General Fund are
fairly balanced. This trend is not expected to continue if the City is able to fill all
vacant positions, purchase planned services and supplies, and capital projects
stay within schedule. In 2022, the City's budget anticipates the planned
expenditure of $13 million of the General Fund reserve to carry out General Fund
activities; all of this deficit is attributable to significant land purchases. As the
Finance Department continues to work on closing the 2021 fiscal year, some
additional transactions will revise the report presented - the largest transaction
being a $12 million transfer to the Economic Development Fund for the purchase
of farm land as they become available. The reports to Council are cumulative in
nature and any changes made will be included in next month's report.
Page 59 of 106
Staff has also removed $8.7 million in allocation received for ARPA funds from
the General Fund and has created an independent fund to account for the
activities to follow best accounting practices.
Attached to the financial report is a list of contracts over $100,000 and under
$300,000 executed administratively during the months of December. Donations
to the City, which were received during this reporting period, are also included in
the report.

Ordinance
II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
MOTION: I move to adopt Ordinance No. ____, establishing a fiduciary fund for
the receipt and transmittal of the funds to the Administrative Office of Courts,
create a new Chapter 3.237 "Administrative Office of the Courts Fund" of the
PMC, and further, authorize publication by summary only.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
None
IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
The City's Finance Department follows the Washington States Revised Code of
Washington (RCW), Governmental Accounting Standard Boards (GASB)
standards, and guidelines set by Washington State Auditors Office. GASB 84
established new standards of accounting and financial reporting for fiduciary
activities. Fiduciary activities are when a government is taking care of funds that
belong to individuals or organizations outside of the government itself.
V. DISCUSSION:
The City's Municipal Court collects funds for Administrative Office of the Courts
(AOC) and transmits the funds to the AOC on a monthly basis. In the past, the
funds were received and transmitted within the same reporting period. However,
for 2021, receipt and transmittal for the month of December happened between
Page 65 of 106
two reporting periods (Fiscal year 2021 and 2022), requiring the creation of a
new fiduciary fund.
Staff recommends adoption of the ordinance as presented.
