VI CONSENT AGENDA

(1) Request permission to call for bids Race Street Signals at First and
Front Streets (UAB resignalization); (2) Correspondence from Washington
State Liquor Control Board; (3) Vouchers of $1,244,523.43; and (4) Payroll
of 9 -4 -88 of $254,935.39. Councilman Sargent seconded and the motion
carried unanimously.
VII ITEMS FROM THE AUDIENCE TO BE PLACED ON THE AGENDA
Carl Alexander, 1712 West Fifth Street, addressed the Council and the
audience, reminding people to vote. He also questioned Item 20 on the
Agenda under Legislation, Consideration of Adopting Policies Regulating
Adult Entertainment, asking whether there would be a public hearing process
regarding this issue. Councilman Stamon stated there would be.
Mr. Alexander also requested that Items 15 and 16, dealing with the Council
vacancy and the advisory ballot, be opened for public comment.
Tom Leinart, 3002 South Peabody Street, made several comments regarding
Items 15 and 16 on the Agenda dealing with the Council vacancy and the call
for the advisory ballot, stating he is not for or against either of the
proposed candidates. However, it was his opinion that the Council was
elected to make decisions in the community's best interest and he believed
these decisions could be made in two ways: Either by conscience or by
consulting the electorate; and he had hoped that the decision dealing with
the new Councilmember will use both, preferably more with the electorate
than with the conscience. Further, he stated he did not feel it was right
for the Council to charge the citizens $5,000 to $6,000 to make that
decision. He believed the decision the Council was to make possibly was
equal to that decision made by Council on the City Hall issue, pointing out
that the public spoke after the decision was made by electing three new
Councilmembers. He believed also the public will speak again when the
elections come in 1989. He asked that if public comment should be
warranted between now and January, 1989, that those members who may find
their decision not to be the will of the people would also submit their
resignations prior to January, 1989, so an entire Council may be elected.
Ruth Dorr, 416 East llth Street, also requested public comments on the same
issues.
VIII LEGISLATION

A. Consideration of Resolution for Abatement
Mayor McPhee opened the public hearing at 7:22 P.M
comment, he then closed the public hearing at 7:24
Resolution by title, entitled
of Overgrown Lots
There being no public
P.M. He then read the
1134
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
September 20, 1988
RESOLUTION NO. 26 -88
A RESOLUTION of the City Council of the
City of Port Angeles, Washington,
declaring the existence of a public
nuisance and requiring the elimination
of such nuisance.
Councilman Stamon moved to pass the Resolution as read by title. Councilman
Sargent seconded and the motion carried unanimously.
B. Resolution for the Street Vacation Request STV- 88(716-
Cronauer /Whitman
Mayor McPhee opened the public hearing at 7:28 P.M.
Doris Willson, 3022 South Laurel Street, Chairman, Environment Committee,
Soroptomists Jet Set, thanked Council for giving her the opportunity to
discuss this issue, stating the Committee is committed to the development of
the Waterfront Trail. Mrs. Willson read a letter written to Richard Wight,
Chairman of the Planning Commission, from the Committee regarding the
Cronauer /Whitman street vacation. At present there is extensive clearing
from the foot of Francis Street down to the waterfront; so much so that the
side of the Trail at the foot of Francis Street has been raised approxi-
mately four feet. Because of the commitment of the City to the Trail
system, the organization felt it would be wrong to vacate Caroline Street
which could possibly encourage additional erosion down onto the Trail.
Further, the letter stated the Committee is not against the development of
the private property, but because of the observation of what has happened,
the Committee felt the Council should exercise extreme caution in granting
permits for development of property along the shoreline.
Dr. Vance Bingham, 323 Vashon, provided Councilmembers with a letter
regarding the vacation, stating his primary concern is with trails, and in
reference to this proposal, he felt it was very important for Council to
understand there are three trails involved in this issue. The Parks
Department proposed a trail in 1980 to follow Caroline Street, which would
descend down a bank on Francis Street and back up again, if Caroline Street
had been continued; also the trail up Francis Street from the waterfront.
Finally, there is a very important extension of the Waterfront Trail toward
Rayonier. He then read his letter to the Council. The main points of the
letter were to request City Council action to either: (A) approve the
request to vacate a portion of Caroline Street; or (B) return the issue to
the Planning Commission for further consideration. His proposal is to grant
the request to vacate a portion of Caroline Street subject to the following
provisions: (1) The City will retain surface rights to the north half of
Caroline Street by easement. This would allow for any trails to Caroline
from Francis and for a small park on Caroline, and east of Francis Street.
(2) The City to secure an easement across the Cronauer property along the
old railroad grade in order to accommodate a trail from Francis Street
toward Rayonier Mill. Said trail to be a continuation of the Waterfront
Trail that leads east from the Red Lion. The advantages to the City would
be: (1) Payment for the vacated property; (2) Additional taxes for the
vacated property; (3) Easement across the Cronaue' property for the Water-
front Trail continuing toward Rayonier Mill. Further, the letter states the
recommendation to turn down the request appears to be based on the concern
for trails and parks, which are part of the 1980 Parks and Recreation Master
Plan, and a failure to show sufficient value to the City to make the vaca-
tion desirable. At the hearing, no real consideration was given to the
value of an easement from Francis Street east along the waterfront. This is
approximately 400 feet across private land, secured by a fee simple title.
There is a need for the petitioner to confer with the parties opposing the
vacation of Caroline Street to see if an agreement that meets the goals of
all parties can be reached. However, it is believed this proposal, as
presented, would achieve the goals of all parties.
Rosemary Cockrill, 1162 Marsden Road, also an owner of property along
Caroline Street, stated the proposed trail should not, in any way, be
endangered; also there should be no vacation of Caroline Street which would
infringe on Francis Street because all of the existing streets that go north
to the waterfront should be left open at the end, and she hated to see
anything done that would change the situation.

Mayor McPhee then closed the public hearing at 7:37 P.M.
1135
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
September 20, 1988
Donald E. Rudolph, 1013 East Third Street, stated it would be nice to save
part of our waterfront for the people, as there is very little area where
the community can go and have access to the beach.
Councilman Stamon posed a question to Attorney Knutson regarding the
suggestion of considering a vacation in exchange for grant of easement
across a piece of property which is not contiguous and is not a part of this
particular vacation request, and asked if there was a problem legally
requesting easement across properties that are not part of the subject
vacation.
Attorney Knutson stated if the property owner requesting the vacation wants
to grant an easement on some other property, as long as the property is
equivalent to the necessary value, it would be legally appropriate.
Councilman Sargent stated, in view of the other consideration that were
presented, she moved to return the issue to the Planning Commission for
further consideration. Councilman Stamon seconded for the purposes of
discussion.
Councilman Stamon questioned why this issue did not come forward as part of
the Planning Commission deliberation.
Planner Carr stated Dr. Bingham had appeared at the Planning Commission
meeting, expressing support of the street vacation.
Councilman Stamon asked if the issue was discussed at all by the Planning
Commission. Planner Carr stated he did not believe the suggestion of the
trade was brought up at the Planning Commission meeting, although he
believed Dr. Bingham did bring up the fact that the potential was there.
Dr. Bingham stated the proposal was never put into the Planning Commis-
sion's packet.
Councilman Stamon questioned Dr. Bingham if he did, in fact, make this
recommendation or suggest in any way to the Planning Commission at that time
that they ought to consider some other type of an easement in exchange for
vacation. Dr. Bingham stated no.
Councilman Stamon asked Dr.Bingham if there was a reason why he did not do
that at that time. He stated he was not aware of this vacation until just
recently.
Councilman Hallett stated he would not be in favor of the motion as the
public hearing afforded due process and the applicant has had a reasonable
amount of time to prepare some alternatives.
On call for the question, the motion was denied, with Councilman Sargent
voting "Aye and Councilmen Lemon, Gabriel, Stamon, Hallett and Mayor
McPhee voting "No
Councilman Lemon then moved to recommend vacations+of the subject right -of-
way, subject to the following conditions: (1) Public access for the Trail
was retained across the subject right -of -way; (2) A deed restriction
affecting development on the subject right -of -way because of the topography
was attached; (3) With retention of a public access easement, vacation would
comply with Circulation Policy No. 10; (4) Vacation would not affect
residential safety and the one interior lot could be provided access through
subsequent actions by the applicant, such as platting; (5) The City will
retain surface rights to the north half of Caroline Street by easement.
This will allow for any trails to Caroline from Francis and for a small park
on Caroline, east of Francis Street; (6) The City to secure an easement
across the Cronauer property along the old railroad grade in order to
accommodate a trail from Francis Street toward Rayonier Mill. Said trail to
be a continuation of the Waterfront Trail that leads east from the Red Lion.
Councilman Gabriel seconded for the sake of discussion.
Councilman Lemon stated in looking at this issue, the applicant is willing
to give access for the bike trail, if need be, as well as a deed restriction
on the development of the subject right -of -way which would allow for the
-4-
1136
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
September 20, 1988
viewpoint to exist, and he felt the trade of the subject right -of -way for an
easement was an excellent idea.
Councilman Stamon stated she was reluctant to take action on an issue which
has had new information presented without referring that information back
to the Planning Commission, which is the acting body on such an issue, and
she felt this would be the appropriate action for the Council to take.
Councilman Lemon stated the only new issue brought forth was the trade of
the easement for the subject right -of -way, and he felt it would be in the
best interests of the City to accept the proposal, as he felt it to be a
win -win situation because the viewpoint would still be there, a park could
be built, and we are adding onto the Waterfront Trail.
Councilman Hallett asked if it would be in order to offer a substitute
motion. Attorney Knutson stated he did not believe it would be in order and
he advised Council to take action on the motion on the floor.
Councilman Sargent was in favor of referring the issue back to the Planning
Commission, as she did not feel comfortable in voting on the issue until the
Planning Commission has had the chance to further review the new issues.
Councilman Gabriel stated he had not been presented with enough reasons to
deny the street vacation, but because there have been a number of concerns
voiced by the Council he withdrew the second on the motion and was in favor
of referring the issue back to the Planning Commission.
The motion then died for lack of a second.
Councilman Sargent then moved to return the issue to the Planning Commission
for further consideration. Councilman Gabriel seconded.
Councilman Stamon requested that the motion also include the identification
of such issues as exactly what the exchange of right -of -way would entail;
what type of deed restrictions would be attached on the right -of -way to
ensure that the topography in the area is protected; what types of plans
would be submitted for access to those interior lots that will not have
street access as a result of the vacation.
Councilman Hallett then directed a question to Doris Willson, asking if she
had heard anything which would convince her that there is enough informa-
tion to consider the issue again by the Planning Commission. Mrs. Willson
stated the material presented, she felt, would be an excellent move on the
part of the City.
On call for the question, the motion carried with Councilman Lemon and Mayor
McPhee voting "No
2. Plannine Commission Minutes of August 24. 1988 (Continued from
,September 6. 1988)
Councilman Stamon moved to set a public hearing for the October 4, 1988,
City Council meeting, to consider an ordinance amending the Zoning Code to
allow adult care facilities in residential districts. Councilman Lemon
seconded and the motion carried unanimously.
Councilman Stamon moved to accept and place on file the Planning Commission
minutes of August 24, 1988. Councilman Hallett seconded and the motion
carried.
3. PlanninE Commission Minutes of September 14, 1988
Councilman Sargent moved to accept and place on file the Planning Commission
minutes of September 14, 1988. Councilman Stamon seconded and the motion
carried unanimously.
4. Consideration of Ordinance Implementing Billing for Services for Medic
I to Non -Citv Residents
Mayor McPhee read the Ordinance by title, entitled
ORDINANCE NO. 2510
AN ORDINANCE of the City of Port Angeles,
Washington, instituting a user fee for
non resident users of the Port Angeles
Medic I Program and amending Section 1
of Ordinance 2381, Section 1 of Ordinance
2274, and Sections 8.36.030 and 8.36.040
of the Port Angeles Municipal Code.
1137
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
September 20, 1988
Councilman Sargent moved to adopt the Ordinance as read by title.
Councilman Lemon seconded.
Councilman Hallett questioned Fire Chief Glenn as to what net gain the City
would receive. Chief Glenn responded it would be approximately $15,000.
Councilman Hallett questioned Chief Glenn as to the image situation. What
would be the image the City would convey to non residents or visitors since
this is no longer a service that the City provides free of charge. Chief
Glenn responded this particular issue had been discussed at length at the
Medic I Advisory Board meeting and it was found the City of Port Angeles is
the only area within the County that does not charge for services of
Advanced Life Support and Basic Life Support transports. Therefore, he
believed it was an image already established throughout the County.
Councilman Stamon questioned Chief Glenn hypothetically, if a high school
student was injured during a team sport event and the aid car was called out
but there was no transport, would there be a charge? Chief Glenn responded
there is no charge for services of the Paramedics unless there is a
transport involved.
Council and staff discussed the issue regarding collection of accounts for
the billings and whether or not we had sufficient staff to take care of the
issue.
Councilman Stamon stated she was in support of the concept and felt it was a
good idea; however, she was concerned with the collection of debts and those
types of situations. She stated she would be more comfortable if Council
could see more clearly what type of system would be used for the collection
of debts from those people who refused to pay.
Mayor McPhee stated the billing volume would not be very significant. Cur-
rently, the situation of transport is approximately eight a month, which is
one every four days.
After further discussion by staff and Council, the question was called and
the motion carried with Councilmen Hallett and Stamon voting "No
Councilman Sargent moved to authorize staff to publish the summary of the
Ordinance. Councilman Lemon seconded and the motion carried.
5. Consideration of Contract with Clallam County for Senior Center
(Continued from September 6. 1988)
Councilman Sargent moved to approve the contract`'in concept and authorize
the Mayor to sign the contract with Clallam County if it is accepted by the
County without material change. Councilman Stamon seconded and the motion
carried.
6. Consideration of Lease with U. S. Coast Guard for City Pier
Councilman Stamon moved to approve the lease and authorize the Mayor to sign
the lease documents. Councilman Hallett seconded. Councilman Sargent added
a friendly amendment to state the period would be from the first of October,
1987, to September 30, 1989. Councilmen Stamon and Hallett concurred. On
call for the question, the amended motion carried unanimously.
7. Consideration of Partial Funding for Scoreboard and Timing Equipment
for William Shore Memorial Pool
Councilman Stamon moved Council concur with the recommendation and agree to
provide the main funds which are necessary for scoring and timing equipment
for the William Shore Memorial Pool from the City's Current Expense Reserve
Fund. Mayor McPhee asked if there was a dollar amount. Manager Flodstrom
-6-
1138
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
September 20, 1988
stated the estimated cost to the City would be about $3,000, and he sug-
gested that Council allow the use of one of the City's accounts as a
clearing account to purchase the equipment and then receive into that
account for reimbursement the outside funds as the equipment is received.
He stated all the parties and the service clubs have agreed to proceed in
that manner if Council so desires. The final cost to the City estimated to
be $3,000, which would not be reimbursed cost but would be the City's share
of the project. Councilman Stamon stated she would like to see that as an
amendment to the motion. Councilman Hallett seconded.
Following some discussion on the issue, Councilman Lemon questioned Manager
Flodstrom as to why the Hotel /Motel Tax revenue was not used. Manager
Flodstrom stated he did not feel it clearly fit into the definition of the
Hotel /Motel Tax Fund guidelines, although there is some element of tourism
support. Councilman Lemon stated instead of placing a dollar figure on the
contribution, could we not state we would contribute up to $3,000 and
request that the Booster Club go back and try to raise the funds.
Councilman Stamon stated it was the intent of her motion.
Following further discussion, the question was called and the motion carried
with Councilman Gabriel and Mayor McPhee voting "No
8. Consideration of Reallocating Funds to Recvclina Activities (Continued
from September 6. 1988)
Councilman Sargent stated she had requested this issue be brought up, as
businesses in the City of Port Angeles have been requesting cardboard
recycling containers and the City is, at present, unable to supply them.
She then moved the Council use the previously budgeted but unspent funds in
the Solid Waste Budget to purchase approximately $3,000 of commercial
cardboard recycling containers. Councilman Hallett seconded.
Councilman Stamon offered a friendly amendment to include a number of
elements in the unspent funds, those being "Cans for Kids" program at a cost
of about $500 for the first year; school paper recycling program, at a cost
of $100; office paper recycling program, $100; and the City Hall recycling
project, $200; for a total of $900; and she would like to see those areas
authorized as well, so the City could immediately start working on the
project.
This amendment was not accepted.
Councilman Gabriel stated he would like to see the issue referred back to
the Citizens' Recycling Committee.
Councilman Stamon then offered another friendly amendment to authorize the
expenditure of up to $4,000, based on the recommendation of the Citizens'
Recycling Committee as to what the others would be. Councilman Sargent
concujred.
Councilman Sargent stated she believed it was time that the City, as a
whole, start recycling and lead the way, and further, the City should be an
example to the rest of the community.
The motion then restated: Councilman Sargent moved to authorize the use of
previously budgeted but unspent funds in the Solid Waste Budget to purchase
approximately $3,000 of commercial cardboard recycling containers, and an
additional $1,000 to be spent as the Citizens' Recycling Committee would
feel is best from the list of projects they have submitted to the Council.
Mayor McPhee questioned how many containers this would purchase. Public
Works Director Pittis stated it would be approximately 12. Mayor McPhee
stated when he needed a container approximately 8 years ago, he just made
one himself. It was his concern Council was spending another $3,000.
Mayor McPhee asked where would these containers be placed. Councilman
Sargent responded to any business who would ask for them; that the Solid
Waste Division does have a list of businesses waiting and they cannot supply
them because they do not have the funds available to purchase them.
On call for the question, the amended motion carried with Mayor McPhee
voting "No

September 20, 1988
BREAK
Mayor McPhee then recessed the meeting at 8:35 P.M. for 15 minutes.
9. Consideration of Easement for Budget Rent A Car
1139
Councilman Stamon moved to grant the easement and to authorize the Mayor to
sign. Councilman Gabriel seconded. On call for the question, the motion
carried unanimously.
10. Consideration of Tree Removal (Loeaine) Section of City's Morse Creek
Property
Councilman Stamon abstained from this issue due to a potential conflict of
interest of a financial nature. Attorney Knutson advised Councilman Stamon
it would be appropriate to not vote on this matter.
Councilman Sargent questioned Manager Flodstrom as to what dollar amount
the City would be receiving for the stumpage, and also if he had any further
information to provide Council on this particular issue.
Manager Flodstrom stated he has had the opportunity to visit the proposed
logging site and gave Council a brief background. However, he has not been
able to contact Mr. Burrowes who is the owner of Burrowes Logging and
therefore is not able to give a specific dollar amount, stating further
there would be a need to consult a person with a timber cruising background
to ensure the merits of the cruise being done by the logging company.
Manager Flodstrom further stated the reason Burrowes and Fox is suggesting
we may want to log this particular stand of timber at this time is because
they are going to be in the area logging their own 40 -acre parcel immedi-
ately adjacent to the City's parcel, and once this property has been logged
Burrowes and Fox do not anticipate any logging in the immediate area until
they are ready to log the property again. Also, the logging company will be
logging in compliance with the Forest Practices Act because of their
proximity to Morse Creek and Lake Creek and they will be reforesting, as
they have in the past, on their own lands. A contract could and would be
negotiated with them that would include some provisions for protection of
the surrounding area as well as some insurance coverage.
Following further discussion on some of the information, Councilman Lemon
asked Manager Flodstrom if he felt there would be any impact on Morse Creek
by the logging. Manager Flodstrom stated with adherence to the Forest
Practices Act, he did not feel there would be any impacts on Morse Creek or
Lake Creek, but this would be subject to significant changes in the weather.
He stated the Forest Practices Act might limit their ability to do this
activity in those types of weather.
Mayor McPhee stated the City has had these trees for approximately 50 years
and they are becoming more rare as time goes by, and he felt it would be a
nice gesture if Council left them as a gift to the future.
Councilman Lemon stated he appreciated Mayor McPhee's comment; however,
there is a point when old growth timber reaches its maturity and then rots
and just falls over, as is happening in the Nationf."1 Forests.
Manager Flodstrom stated there probably are foresters in the area who could
assist the City in doing several things: (1) Determine the condition of the
trees and the status of the trees now and into the future; (2) Help the City
Manager to assess the cruise information from Burrowes and Fox; and (3)
Assist the City in establishing an appropriate price and the best way to set
that price, either on the stump or across the scale.
Councilman Stamon asked Attorney Knutson if it would be appropriate for her
to interject a few comments to help Council with its deliberation over the
cost of a forester and obtaining a cruiser report. Attorney Knutson stated
he felt that was appropriate.
Councilman Stamon stated Council could probably obtain information from a
cruiser report for less than $500.
1140
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
September 20, 1988
Councilman Hallett moved to authorize the City Manager to negotiate with a
forester for information needed on the property, not to exceed $500, and to
bring information back to Council at the October 4th meeting for considera-
tion of entering into a contract with Burrowes Logging. Councilman Gabriel
seconded.
Councilman Sargent stated we should be very careful about not causing any
erosion on Morse Creek.
On call for the question, the motion carried with Mayor McPhee voting "No"
and Councilman Stamon abstaining.
11. Consideration of Chamber of Commerce Letter Re: Revolving Loan Fund
Review Board
Councilman Sargent moved to increase the positions of the Committee from
seven to eight by adding the Chamber of Commerce. Councilman Gabriel
seconded for the purpose of discussion.
Councilman Sargent stated when Council had taken action on this originally,
the feeling was that the position of a representative from a local business
organization would be inclusive of the Chamber as well as the other
positions. However, she felt even though there may be these particular
people on the Committee, they will not be representing the Chamber of
Commerce and she felt it was important for the Chamber to be represented.
Mayor McPhee was in agreement with Councilman Sargent's statement.
After further discussion of the issue, the question was called and the
motion carried with Councilmen Stamon and Hallett voting "No
12. Consideration of Citizens Who Have Expressed Interest in Serving on the
Revolving Loan Review Board
Councilman Lemon moved to continue recruiting applicants. Councilman
Gabriel seconded for the purpose of discussion.
Councilman Lemon stated the reason for his motion was Council has just added
another category, and also he has a person interested in the bank /loan
officer category who has been unable to provide an application to the City.
Mayor McPhee stated some of the applicants do not reside within the City of
Port Angeles and asked Council if they wanted to consider such applicants.
Councilman Sargent stated she did not.
Councilman Stamon said she was a little wary of extending the application
period, with the exception of maybe the bank /loan officer position since
Councilman Lemon does have an interested party. She stated she could accept
placbng a hold on that particular position and she suggested Council put on
hold the bank /loan officer category, the Chamber category, and the local
business organization, and go ahead and appoint a realtor, broker, financial
adviser and the citizen at large position.
Councilman Lemon stated this was a decision that need not be made in haste.
Councilman Stamon offered a friendly amendment to continue recruiting for
the bank /loan officer position until the October 4, 1988, City Council
meeting. Councilmen Lemon and Gabriel concurred.
On call for the question, the amended motion carried unanimously.
Councilman Stamon moved Council delay consideration of the issue until the
first Council meeting in November to allow time for interviews and to also
ensure that all members of Council will be present and able to participate
in the appointment process, with the understanding that the application
period is closed except for the category of bank /loan officer, which will be
open until October 4, 1988. Councilman Gabriel seconded.
Councilman Stamon included in the motion to exclude non residents.
Councilman Gabriel concurred. On call for the question, the motion carried
unanimously.

13. Consideration of Pole Rental Agreement With P.A. Telecable
Councilman Stamon stated the issue was considered at the UAC meeting and
discussed the issue at great length. Some changes were made to the rate
formula. There were also several other changes made, in addition to the
rate formula. (1) Clarification of the language with respect to removing of
Telecable services; (2) Term of the agreement is 15 years; (3) A phase -in
over a three -year period: 75% of the cost the first year, 80% the second
year and 90% the third year.
Craig Miller, attorney representing Telecable, stated Telecable agrees with
the form of the contract as presented.
Councilman Stamon moved to authorize the Mayor to enter into a pole rental
agreement with Port Angeles Telecable. Councilman Gabriel seconded. On
call for the question, the motion carried unanimously.
14. Consideration of Cable TV Franchise Transfer
Mayor McPhee read the Resolution by title, entitled
RESOLUTION NO. 27 -88
A RESOLUTION of the City Council of the
City of Port Angeles, Washington,
consenting to the transfer of cable
television franchise and the assign-
ment of a pole rental agreement from
Port Angeles Telecable, Inc., to
Northland Cable Television, Inc.
1141
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
September 20, 1988
Councilman Stamon stated the UAC considered this issue and recommends the
passage of the Resolution to approve the Telecable franchise transfer.
Craig Miller, attorney for Port Angeles Telecable, introduced Steve
Friedman, Divisional Vice President for Northland Cable Television, Inc., to
Council. Mr. Friedman addressed the Council, giving a few brief comments,
stating Northland is very pleased with the opportunity to serve the
community of Port Angeles and their goal is, has been, and always will be,
quality service to the customers and to continue to provide the service
that Telecable has been providing for the past years.
Councilman Sargent asked Mr. Friedman if he anticipated any cost increase of
the service to the consumer. Mr. Friedman stated it is safe to say costs
do go up. However, the company has no plans at this point and he assured
Councilman Sargent the company's rates tend to be a little lower in the
area.
Councilman Stamon moved to pass the Resolution as read by title. Councilman
Gabriel seconded and the motion carried unanimously.
15. Consideration of Citizens to Fill Council Vacancy
Councilman Stamon stated she had requested this item be brought before the
Council again for consideration and urged Council to receive another ballot.
Ruth Dorr, 416 East llth Street addressed Council on the issue, stating she
had taken a random telephone poll of 30 people, picking the names from the
telephone directory, and asked those people two questions: (1) Are they a
registered voter; and (2) Would they like Mr. Hordyk appointed to the
Council. From that random poll she received nine yeses in favor of Mr.
Hordyk and 21 people in opposition. She questioned Council as to why they
felt Mr. Hordyk was acceptable when there were positions open on the Council
a year ago and he did not run. She questioned Councilman Lemon. Council-
man Lemon stated Mr. Hordyk would have to answer that question. Mrs. Dorr
then posed the question to Mr. Hordyk. Mr. Hordyk stated he did not feel it
was an appropriate question at this time.
Mayor McPhee interjected, stating four years ago Mr. Hordyk did run a low
profile campaign and he lost by approximately 150 votes. Mayor McPhee
stated briefly he did not know all the reasons why Mr. Hordyk chose not to
run; however, Council does need an experienced man and he felt Mr. Hordyk
had that experience.

1142
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
September 20, 1988
Mrs. Dorr stated Councilmen Lemon, Gabriel and Sargent had a lot of outside
experience to bring to the Council and it was the people of the community
who felt they were mature enough to make the decisions Council needs to
make or they would not have been elected. And yet Mayor McPhee is asking
for a person with previous Council experience. Why not bring a fresh face
on and let them learn, along with Councilmen Lemon, Sargent and Gabriel, as
well as the rest of the Councilmembers, stating in closing that they all
have to learn.
Following additional discussion between Mrs. Dorr and Mayor McPhee, Council-
man Stamon rose to a point of order, stating Council has asked for members
of the public to give Council input and she felt the discussion was leading
into an adversarial confrontation.
Vonda French, 607 South Chase Street, spoke against the advisory ballot as
she felt since there was an election in 1989 it would be proven out at that
election. She spoke in favor of appointing John Hordyk to the Council
vacancy.
Werner Quast, 3800 Park Knoll Drive, gave Council an explanation as to why
Mr. Whidden was appointed to the Council after his defeat. He told Council
the people had voted on an advisory ballot regarding whether Northern Tier
should be brought into Port Angeles and the majority had voted against
Northern Tier. After the Council was informed that then Councilmember
Harold Buck would be resigning from the Council to fill a position at EDC,
they felt obligated during the appointment process Council to choose a
person to fill the position who was against the oilport as opposed to
someone who was pro oilport. That person was Charles Whidden and that, he
stated, was the story of the defeated primary candidate. He gave Council a
brief overview of some of the events which had taken place during the time
Mr. Hordyk was seated on the Council, speaking most specifically to Council-
men Gabriel and Lemon. He urged Council to read through the minutes from
1970 through 1983; especially 1971, 1973 and 1976, 1980, 1981, 1983, where
the City was dealing with the WPPSS situation. At that time Mr. Hordyk and
then Councilmember Dick Wray were considered experts on the public power
matters. He urged Council to look at the voting records of these two
Councilmembers, look at their urgings, and to look at where the City is now,
just settling a WPPSS case for $1.8 million and additional costs for
attorney fees, bringing the total to $2.4 million. He went into detail
regarding this situation. In closing, Dr. Quast stated Mayor McPhee,
Councilmen Gabriel and Lemon have talked about a conservative agenda. He
stated he has no problem with the conservative agenda; however, he is
concerned with a McPhee agenda. He stated he believed a person who has
lived in the City of Port Angeles for 12 years and has served in a
Councilmanic position in Aberdeen is just as qualified, has just as much
expertise and does not carry the burdens of perhaps some prejudices. He
urged Council to take this into consideration, for the benefit of the City.
Tom Spencer, 814 South Valley Street, addressed Council, urging them to get
on with City business, to appoint a citizen to the Council vacancy, stating
he felt they were wasting too much time.
Evelyn Saar, 1432 West llth Street, spoke on beharf of John Hordyk, stating
she believed there have been mistakes made on this Council as there have
been made by previous Councils. She urged Council to support John Hordyk
and appoint him.
Councilman Hallett, as a point of information, stated it was past 10:00 and
moved to continue the Agenda. Councilman Stamon seconded and the motion
carried unanimously.
Mayor McPhee then directed Clerk Maike to receive a ballot.
Ballot One:
Councilman Gabriel voted for John Hordyk.
Councilman Hallett voted for Prosper Ostrowski.
Councilman Lemon voted for John Hordyk.
Mayor McPhee voted for John Hordyk.
Councilman Sargent voted for Prosper Ostrowski.
Councilman Stamon voted for Prosper Ostrowski.
1143
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
September 20, 1988
Councilman Sargent spoke a few words regarding why she is voting the way she
is, stating she is willing to open up the voting to any other applicants
that have applied; that she is willing to do anything to make this a Council
decision. However, her feelings regarding Mr. Hordyk are that 16 years is
too long to serve on the City Council, stating the voters have advised that
eight years is long enough; and appointing a person who was defeated in the
election would not be a wise choice in replacing Councilman Hesla. In her
opinion, Mr. Hordyk has a conflict of interest and excess baggage to bring
to Council. Therefore, she cannot change her vote to appoint him. As far
as experience, the voters said they wanted the three new Councilmembers
without previous council experience, but the candidates brought a lot of
business and world experience with them. Further, she stated her platform
has been criticized by the Mayor; however, she has reviewed her statements
and the speeches made during her campaign and of those issues, she has
accomplished spearheading the beautification of the City, working on the
Recycling Committee, eliminated $600,000 from the budget, and various other
accomplishments. Councilman Sargent stated she has addressed every item
she said she would and she did not feel she needed to apologize to anyone.
She has been fair and has listened to the people.
Councilman Hallett stated the subject of budgets seems to keep recurring,
and it is interesting to note, if you review the General Fund, which is the
taxpayer- supported fund, from the period of 1969 through 1984, the General
Fund increased on an average of 10.2% per year, which means the budget
supported by the taxpayers increased on an average of 10% a year. Also,
since 1985, when there was a change in Council, the budgets increased 5.57.
Last year the increase was 4.6% and in 1987 it was 1.8 Therefore, in
speaking of budget experience and a conservative agenda, he believed Council
has seen that change did occur after the departure of Mr. Hordyk. Further,
he stated the serving of 16 years by Mr. Hordyk may have been good years,
and he was sure Mr. Hordyk had done some fine work; however, he agreed with
Councilman Sargent's statement that 16 years is too long to serve and urged
Council appoint someone new.
16. Consideration of Resolution Calline for Advisory Ballot and ADorovina
the Wordine for the Ballot
Attorney Knutson gave Council a recap of the steps needed to be taken in
order to place an advisory ballot before the electorate, stating, however,
the cost was somewhat in dispute. The County Auditor has indicated she
thought the cost may be approximately $6,000, but based on contacts the
Administrative Services Department has made with the Secretary of State's
Office and Municipal Research Services of Washington, they have determined
it could be much less. The 1984 primary election ballot, on which the City
had one item, cost between $500 and $600, stating the cost is not clear at
this time. Attorney Knutson further stated, with regard to having an
advisory ballot, it would be strictly advisory. The previous motion of the
Council on September 8th regarding the stepping down of the Mayor from the
position and the appointed member to step off the Council, could not be made
mandatory. In other words, the results of the advisory ballot could not
have the effect of making the appointment provisional or interim until the
advisory ballot results came in, unless the person who is appointed agrees
to resign.
Councilman Stamon stated she has a motion she would like to offer and maybe
it would help to resolve some of the quandary the Council is facing,
because there were some very awkward elements involved with the motion
passed at the September 8th City Council meeting. She then moved Council
would request the Mayor not make an appointment after the 30 -day limit has
expired and Council would cause to be placed on the ballot two names,
Prosper Ostrowski and John Hordyk, and that Council allow the citizenry, as
a purely advisory ballot with the understanding that it is an advisory
ballot, to indicate to Council with their ballots which person they would
prefer to see placed on the Council, with a commitment from Council that
they would enact the will of the people and that the Mayor could make the
appointment immediately after the results of the ballot have been certified.
Councilman Hallett seconded for purposes of discussion.
Councilman Stamon stated the reason she offered the motion is because
Councilmembers feel strongly about their candidates and therefore there is a
deadlock on the Council. Further, she believed Councilmembers felt
strongly about the preference that Council as a whole make the appointment.
-12-
1144
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
September 20, 1988
She saw the advisory ballot as a good opportunity for everyone to come away
from the appointment feeling comfortable regarding the outcome.
Councilman Lemon spoke in opposition to the motion, stating (1) he upholds
the State law and (2) a number of years back when people were pleading with
the Council to let them voice their opinions regarding City Hall, on an
advisory ballot, the request was denied.
Larry Leonard, 1030 Olympus Avenue,

fact pleaded for an advisory ballot
of the main reasons they were told no

appalled at the statements of Councilmen Hallett and Stamon that the Coun-
cilmembers for Mr. Hordyk would not change their minds. He believed that
Councilmen Gabriel, Lemon and Mayor McPhee have stood by their convictions.
They feel, right or wrong, that Mr. Hordyk is the person for the job;
therefore, they do not have to compromise to get done what they want to get
done, and he did not feel it was necessary that they compromise.
Lisa Brown, 2242 West 12th Street, stated the honest, moral thing
to let the people vote on the issue. This issue has torn up the
obviously; no one is willing to compromise, and she urged Council
this issue on an advisory ballot.

17. Consideration of Options for Meeting Citv's Claims and Risk Management
Needs
Councilman Stamon moved Council to direct the City Manager to proceed with
filling the position of Risk Manager. The motion died for lack of a second.
Council discussed the three options presented by staff: (1) Discontinue the
self- insurance program and revert to conventional insurance; (2) Eliminate
the Risk Manager position and contract for services as needed; (3) Continue
the program as it is currently done.
Following lengthy discussion on the issue and background being provided by
Manager Flodstrom and City Light Director Orton, Councilman Hallett moved to
continue the Risk Management program as it is currently being done and to
fill the position. Councilman Stamon seconded.
Following further discussion, on call for the question, the motion carried
unanimously.
18. Consideration of Agreement with 3H Cable Communications Consultants for
Cable TV Oversight Services
Councilman Stamon stated the Utility

Communications for a one -year per

issue.
Councilman Stamon moved to authorize the execution of a contract with 3H
Cable Communications Consultants for a period of one year. Councilman
Hallett seconded and the motion carried unanimously.

20. Consideration of Adopting Policies Regulating Adult Entertainment
Councilman Sargent moved to instruct staff to draft an ordinance regulating
adult entertainment businesses to include (1) Require registration of owner
of employees with City Clerk by providing information such as name, address,
1145
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
September 20, 1988
date of birth; (2) Require background check by Police Department as to
legitimate public health and safety concerns related specifically to any
previous morals or drug- related convictions; (3) Prohibit nude (or topless
female) entertainment in establishments where liquor is served; (4) Re-
strict nude entertainment to that which is within the category of either
non obscene dramatic works, serious scientific or educational purposes, non
obscene exhibitions or dances, or non obscene political performances and
presentations; (5) Restrict the location of adult entertainment /exotic or
nude dancing businesses to locations that are no closer than 2,000 feet from
any church or parochial or public school; (6) Restrict nude entertainment to
stages or other surfaces raised at least 18 inches above floor level and no
closer than six feet from the nearest patron and to persons 18 years or
older; (7) Require a $100 license fee; (8) Authorize the Police Department
to make inspections necessary to ensure compliance with the ordinance, and
bring back the draft ordinance to the Council, at which time a public
hearing would be held. Councilman Stamon seconded.
Mayor McPhee, posing a question to Attorney Knutson, asked might some
applications be made for such businesses during the interim period that the
City would be unable to control because there is not an ordinance regulating
such businesses?
Attorney Knutson stated that is a possibility. Determined on the type of
regulations the City may end up with, if a business was to come into town
right now, prior to having an ordinance, the City could regulate the type of
activity that went on inside the confines of that business if the City
decides. However, to try and adopt some regulations along the lines of
zoning provisions, that would regulate where in Port Angeles the business
could be located, then the City would not be able to retroactively apply
that type of regulation to the business.
Councilman Stamon questioned whether a moratorium could be placed on those
types of businesses, pending the development of an ordinance. Attorney
Knutson stated the City could pass an emergency ordinance.
Councilman Sargent asked Attorney Knutson if he could clarify the meaning of
an "emergency ordinance Attorney Knutson responded the ordinance could
spell out some of the conditions, but it would also indicate there basically
is not a zone within the City where such businesses would be allowed to
locate, pending an amendment to the Zoning Code being processed. He further
recommended that this type of ordinance go through the Planning Commission
as well as the City Council. The ordinance would be declared an emergency,
based on the public interest, and therefore that would allow it to take
effect immediately.
Councilman Stamon then offered a friendly amendment that Council direct the
City Attorney to prepare an emergency ordinance for Council's consideration
at the October 4, 1988, City Council meeting, which would basically
institute a moratorium in the City of Port Angeles on permitting of this
type of activity until such time as a Zoning Code amendment can be processed
through the Planning Commission, which will then be considered by Council,
or an ordinance which regulates the issue. Councilman Sargent concurred.
Carl Alexander, 1712 West Fifth Street, addressed Council on this issue,
requesting that when and if the Council adopts or drafts an ordinance for
consideration, prior to releasing the document to the public, they make a
motion to include a disclaimer on the front of the ordinance so people
wanting to review the ordinance may be aware of some of the explicit
language contained in the document.
On call for the question, the amended motion carried.
21. Consideration of City Council Goals and Obiectives Prioritization and
Setting Meeting for Further Review
Council reviewed the tabulization of their Goals and updated staff on some
of the changes that each member had regarding this information.
Following some discussion of the issue a meeting date was set for September
28, 1988, at 7:00 P.M. at City Hall for further review of the Goals and
Objectives.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING

IX CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE REPORTS /LATE ITEMS
CC.25
Manager Flodstrom presented Council with some information regarding the
City's property at Seventh and Peabody. Manager Flodstrom brought Council
up to date on the terms of the sales agreement, which are subject to Mr.
Chapman being able to obtain approval for the housing project he was
working on through the FHA. Council had, at that time, given him six months
to do so. However, that six month extension on the purchase and sale
agreement will expire prior to Council's October 4th meeting. The request
Council needs to act upon is an extension of that six month period and the
terms of the sales agreement.
After further discussion of the issue, Councilman Stamon moved Council
approve the extension of the purchase and sale agreement for a six -month
period with the understanding that the $5,000 earnest money deposit will
become non refundable. Councilman Lemon seconded and the motion carried.
Attorney Knutson presented Council with a letter drafted for Mayor McPhee in
regard to the illegal use of City -owned garbage containers by a business
within the City of Port Angeles. Council directed Mayor McPhee to sign the
letter and send it to the appropriate parties.
Councilman Stamon, for the benefit of the Council and citizenry, reminded
people of the Hazardous Waste Amnesty Day on Saturday, September 24th, at
the County Court House from 9 AM to 3 PM, requesting that people who have
old chemicals at their residences they may want to get rid of, this would be
the appropriate time and place to do so.
Councilman Sargent, making reference to Information Agenda Item 14, the memo
regarding handicapped parking, asked that information on this be brought
before the Council and the recommendations be brought forth for Council's
consideration at the meeting after Councilman Sargent's return.
Also, Councilman Sargent pointed out Item 7 on the Information Agenda, her
request to be temporarily absent from Council meetings, stating she will be
attending business in England and will be out of the country for the month
beginning September 23rd.
XII ADJOURN TO EXECUTIVE SESSION
