Councilman Stamon corrected Register Page 863, 6th paragraph down, changing the word "bank" to band. The motion carried. Councilman Stamon asked that in the future the p4ges of the minutes be numbered on the right -hand corner. Councilman Stamon moved to accept the items listed under the Consent Agenda including: (1) Request permission to call for bids contract tree trimming; (2) Request for progress payment to Fremont Construction for work on new City Hall of $42,585.25; (3) Final payment to Eastern Electric for transformer repair of $8,576.97; and (4) Vouchers of $281,569.16 and Payroll of 11 -6 -87 of $222,411.13. Councilman Hallett seconded. Council- man Hesla inquired about the call for bids on tree trimming. He asked if it would not be reasonable to do this on a yearly, routine basis. Light Director Orton stated that it was not required on an annual basis, rather, once every four or five years. Councilman McPhee was concerned that we have a $65,000 item that we were just learning about; that the City Manager and staff were aware of at least two and one -half months ago. He wished it would have come to the Council's attention earlier. Manager Flodstrom responded that the item had been discussed in the Utility Advisory Committee. Councilman Hallett felt it had been adequately addressed in the budget. Following extensive discussion, the motion carried. VI FINANCE 2. Bid Awarded to WESCO for Electric Meters 869 CITY COUNCIL MEETING November 17, 1987 1. Payment Authorized to Riddell, Williams for Legal Representation on WPPSS Issues Councilman Schermer moved to authorize payment of the September 26th to October 25, 1987, Riddell, Williams bill in the amount of $10,609.11. Councilman Hesla seconded and the motion carried. Councilman Schermer moved to concur with the recommendation of the Light Department and accept the qualified low bid from WESCO out of Portland, Oregon, for a total of $15,854.36, including tax. Councilman Quast seconded. Councilman McPhee noticed this was not the low bid and that the bidder who had bid $175.93 less had failed to submit a bid bond. He recommended rejecting all bids and rebidding. Council and staff explained that it would cost more than the $176 to call for bids a second timeand that the other bidder who had complied with bidding requirements would have cause for legal action. On call for the question, the motion carried. 3. Progress Payment Authorized to Bruch Bruch Construction for Work on Morse Creek Hydro Project Councilman Quast moved to concur with the recommendation of City Light that the City Council approve the payment in the amount of $3,141.70, less 5% retainage, plus 7.8% tax, for a total of $3,217.41. Councilman Hallett seconded. Councilman McPhee inquired why this was not included in the regular contract. Light Director Orton responded that part of this was a skin slide that occurred outside of the slide area which was originally being repaired. Following discussion, on call for the question, the motion carried. VII ITEMS FROM THE AUDIENCE TO BE PLACED ON THE AGENDA Jim Cammack, 3752 Hill Circle, addressed the Council on behalf of the Senior Class Party Fundraising Committee, requesting the Council to address a situation that many had become dramatically aware of over the past few weeks following a teen -age suicide, where teen -agers leave a dance at midnight to go to a party where drugs or alcohol might be served. He requested the Council, on this particular occasion a dance to be held on New Year's Eve extend the hours of the dance from midnight to 1:00 A.M. Councilman Stamon suggested this item be dealt with now. Following discussion, the Council concurred. Copies of an ordinance amending the teen -age dance ordinance had been distributed to Councilmembers earlier. Mayor Whidden read the Ordinance by title, entitled ORDINANCE NO. AN ORDINANCE of the City of Port Angeles modifying Teenage Dance Regulations and amending Section 7 of Chapter 5 of Ordinance 2050 and Section 5.20.070 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code. Councilman Stamon moved to adopt the Ordinance as read by title. Council- man Hallett seconded. Councilman Stamon brought up the need to address the request of this fund- raising committee to allow children from age 14 to attend. Attorney Knutson explained that wording of the Ordinance could be revised to change the age from 16 to 14, or wording could be added to make it a case -by -case basis. Councilman Schermer suggested addition of wording in paragraph (f) "unless authorized by City Council" and moved to amend wording as such. Councilman Stamon concurred. Attorney Knutson suggested adding the word "otherwise" also. Councilman Stamon concurred. Councilman Stamon then commended this committee. She stated this was exactly the type of thing the Council was hoping to see more of in the future. She felt it was a wonderful way of addressing the problem of youths with alcohol and drugs. 870 CITY COUNCIL MEETING November 17, 1987 It was Councilman Quast's opinion that the 16- year -old age limit was established at the time that this was the age of high school students and in an effort not to mix junior high with high school students. He emphasized that the structure of the schools had now changed. Mr. Cammack also brought up the fact that the High School now included ninth graders and that many high school students were in the age range of 14 to 15. Councilman Hesla noted that the dance would be offered to teen -agers 14 to 19, but that the ordinance allowed individuals up to the age of 21. Mr. Cammack stated he would leave this to the discretion of the Council, but that the Committee would reserve the right to refuse entry to anyone and was discouraging the older individuals from attending. Councilman Stamon felt this was the right of the sponsors of any event. Following discus- sion, the amended motion carried. Councilman Stamon then moved to concur with the request from Mr. Cammack and the 1988 Senior Party Committee and allow an extension of the hours at Vern Burton Memorial Community Center for the purposes of a teen -age dance on New Year's Eve to 1:00 A.M. Councilman Hesla seconded. Councilman Stamon included in the motion that attendance at age 14 also be authorized, with the understanding and assurances as contained in the letter, that the party would be chaperoned and age limits enforced. Councilman Hesla concurred, and the motion carried. VIII LEGISLATION 1. Petition Accepted for Improvement by L.I.D. Of DelGuzzi Drive East of the Plaza Mayor Whidden reviewed a background memo from the Public Works Department on the topic. Councilman Schermer moved to concur with the recommendation of the Public Works Department that the City Council accept the petition and authorize the Public Works Department to proceed with negotiations for surveying and engineering services with Northwestern Territories, Inc., and that the Council require a letter of financial commitment from the property owners, making them financially responsible for all costs incurred by Northwestern Territories, Inc., for surveying, plans and specifications, if the L.I.D. was withdrawn or not formed and /or constructed because of actions by property owners. Councilman Stamon seconded, pointing out that we were specifying a particular surveying firm at the request of the proponents of the L.I.D. Councilman McPhee pointed out also that that firm had done preliminary work. 2. Reviewing Status of Golf Course Road Fund Ordinance Amendment Delayed Attorney Knutson distributed an ordinance. Mayor Whidden read the Ordinance by title, entitled ORDINANCE NO. AN ORDINANCE of the City of Port Angeles extending the effective date of the Golf Course Road Improvement Fund 4pd amending Section 4 of Ordinance 2094. Councilman Quast moved to adopt the Ordinance as read by title. Councilman Schermer seconded. Councilman McPhee asked if Mr. Miller had a copy of this memo or was aware of it. Staff did not believe so. Councilman McPhee felt we should hear from Mr. Miller before we adopted the Ordinance. He saw this as changing the law after the expiration of a deadline, and possibly because of something the City did or did not do. He felt we should hear from Mr. Miller before we took any action changing the ordinance. Attorney Knutson explained the basis for drafting this Ordinance. Councilman Stamon did not have a problem with delaying it for one meeting, so long as the Council indicated that they intended to take action at the next Council meeting. Councilman Quast then withdrew his motion. Councilman Stamon moved to delay action on this item until the next Council meeting and that an invitation be extended to Mr. Miller to address the Council at that meeting. Councilman Schermer seconded and the motion carried. 3. Current Diversion Ordinance Amended Mayor Whidden read the Ordinance by title, entitled ORDINANCE NO. 2466 AN ORDINANCE of the City of Port Angeles eliminating certain references to a repealed criminal code provision, and amending Ordinance No. 2285 and Sections 13.18.050, 13.18.060, and 13.18.070 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code. 871 CITY COUNCIL MEETING November 17, 1987 Councilman Quast moved to adopt the Ordinance as read by title. Councilman McPhee seconded and the motion carried. 4. Disposition of Bonneville Power Administration Rebate on Electrical Power Payments Mayor Whidden reviewed a background memorandum from Light Director Orton which explained that in October the City was informed that it was going to receive a rebate on its power bill in the range of $134,000 to $138,000 and that the Council had been made aware of this news on October 20th at its regular meeting and had referred this matter to the Utility Advisory Committee. The memo then outlined options established by the Utility Advisory Committee. Ory Campbell addressed the Council on behalf of James River Corporation, requesting that the rebate be refunded on the basis of energy consumed during the period. Councilman McPhee discussed the matter briefly with Mr. Campbell. Jeff Rosbach, representing ITT Rayonier, addressed the Council, stating that Rayonier was City Light's second largest customer. He felt the rebate should not be allocated back to reserves but should be returned to City Light's customers on the basis of actual energy purchases during the rebate period. Upon inquiry by Councilman Sch r r 9 ncilman Quast responded on behalf of the Utility Advisory C--- explaining the recommendations established by the Utility Advisory Committee. During extensive discus- sion, Councilman McPhee stated it did not seem that difficult to calculate amounts due back to residential customers. Councilmembers explained they had asked staff and staff had responded that it would be a nightmare to research those records to determine amounts of usage and occupants during the time of the rebate period. Councilman Stamon stated that if a rebate did occur, she would favor an across the -board rebate where the amount was simply divided by the number of utility customers and a flat rate returned to each customer. The Council and staff discussed the issue at great length. Steve Guthrie, 1015 East Fourth, felt the money should be all retained or returned to everyone and not just one specific group such as the industrial accounts. Following extensive discussion, Councilman Schermer moved that we accept recommendation no. 4, refunding the money in. ca.h or credits to both residental and commercial customers in the most economical way possible. Councilman McPhee seconded for the sake of discussion. Councilman Hallett supported retaining the money to offset future rate increases. Councilman McPhee favored retaining the reserves except for that class which was easily identified and using those retained reserves to defer increases only for those classes that didn't receive a cash rebate. On call for the question, the motion failed with Councilmen Hesla and Schermer voting "Aye Councilmen Quast, McPhee, Hallett and Stamon voting "No Following further discussion, Councilman McPhee moved to accept this rebate from Bonneville Power and pass on an immediate rebate to the industrial class and credit it against the next increase that would occur to residen- tial and commercial accounts. Councilman Quast seconded. Councilman Quast pointed out this would mean that the industrial accounts would receive the rate increase unmitigatingly while the others might have a buffer. On call for the question, the motion failed with Councilman McPhee voting "Aye" and all others voting "No -4- CITY COUNCIL MEETING November 17, 1987 872 Councilman Hallett moved to concur with the Utility Advisory Committee recommendation and accept the Bonneville rebate and retain it in a reserve to offset future potential rate increases. Councilman Quast seconded. This motion carried with Councilman Schermer voting "No 5. City Will Not Join Snohomish County PUD in Advocating Their Position on WPPSS Issues Councilman Quast moved the City of Port Angeles not join with the Snohomish County PUD in advocating termination of the net billing agreement with BPA. Councilman Stamon seconded. Councilman Stamon reported on the behalf of the Utility Advisory Committee. She stated the City's legal representative felt there were some significant flaws with the reasoning in the position of Snohomish in this particular instance. She further noted that Public Power Council was in the process of establishing a position on this issue and that we should adopt a wait and see attitude at this point. Councilman Quast concurred. On call for the question, the motion carried. Councilman Stamon felt it behooved the entire Council and the new Councilmembers as well as the public to be aware that we are going to be facing in the next couple of years, some weighty issues in terms of resource management, development and acquisition and there were going to be some real difficult policy decisions the Port Angeles City Council was going to have to make on these issues. Councilman Quast pointed out that we were afraid that because of the national budget deficit, there would be new attempts made to have the BPA loans; (a) paid back faster to the Federal Government; (b) the interest rate increased to BPA or; (c) which is the most likely, the selling of the public power plants to private companies. He stated the impact of that on the public power customers could not be foreseen at this time. He stated some decisions coming before the Council in the future might be more momentous than the 1976 decision to join the WPPSS consortium. 6. Professional Services Contract for Fish Spawning Study Services Morse Creek Hydro Project Authorized Councilman Quast moved to authorize the Mayor to sign the personal service contract for one year for Morse Creek salmon and steelhead spawning surveys with Tom H. Johnson and Randy Cooper, fisheries biologists, to comply with requirements for the FERC licencse application on the Morse Creek project. Councilman Stamon seconded and the motion carried. BREAK The meeting was recessed for 15 minutes for a break from 8:35 until 8:50 P.M. 7. Park Board Minutes of October 22, 1987 Councilman Schermer moved to accept and place on file the minutes of the Park, Recreation, and Beautification Commission of October 22, 1987. Councilman Stamon seconded. Councilman Hallett questioned Park and Recreation Director Brodhun on when the sign ,policy would be discussed again. Park and Recreation Director Brodhun responded this would be discussed at the December meeting. He asked about the status on the Adopt -A -Park brochure. Park and Recreation Director Brodhun explained that the Park Board had recommended changes on the draft and the brochure would be taken back to the board for approval this Thursday night. Councilman Quast discussed with Park and Recreation Director Brodhun, Park Commissioner VanOss' suggestion that the 1988 budget include specifically the amount the City planned to spend on Beautification for the purpose of informing groups when the Advisory Committee was soliciting donations from those groups. He asked if the Parks Department could provide an estimate on the cost of replantings with various colors in the flower boxes, etc. rather than one drab greenery etc. He asked if this estimate could be provided at budget time. Park and Recreation Director Brodhun stated it was the hope of the Park Department that the business community could take over maintenance of planters in front of their businesses. He explained that was the idea behind Miss VanOss' suggestion, that we identify how much money is spent on beautification so that when we went soliciting donations, we could indicate how much we are spending and ask folks what they could possibly do to assist. During discussion, it was agreed that plaques listing those who maintain the planter boxes would be installed on those boxes. 873 CITY COUNCIL MEETING November 17, 1987 Councilmen McPhee and Quast discussed with Park and Recreation Director Brodhun the sign policy. They also discussed attendance at Park Board meetings by Park Board members, and the POW flag in the park. On call for the question, the motion to accept and place on file the minutes carried. 8. Construction of Memorial Wall at New City Hall Authorized Councilman Schermer moved to authorize the Park and Recreation Department to proceed with building the brick wall which would be entitled, "The Wall of Fame" and contain memorial plaques for exceptional citizens. Councilman McPhee seconded. Following discussion, the motion carried. Councilman Schermer then moved that the Council solicit estimates from Duncan McKiernan for the bronze bas relief plaque after the Memorial Committee has determined wording for said plaque. Councilman Stamon seconded for the sake of discussion. During discussion, Councilman Stamon pointed out her desire that the Council have final approval on the wording of the plaque. This was agreed upon. On call for the question, the motion carried. Following further discussion, Councilman Stamon moved that the Memorial Committee be authorized to select a number of citizens to assist them in establishing guidelines for the specifics of who should be on that memorial plaque. Councilman Quast seconded and the motion carried. Councilman McPhee requested that staff obtain information from other cities as to their guidelines for recognition of citizens. Manager Flodstrom responded that the Committee did have some of that information at this time. 9. City's Deferred Compensation Benefit Expanded by Adding Additional Service Provider IDS Councilman Hallett abstained due to a potential conflict of interest. Councilman Stamon asked the City Attorney to explain the procedure for the Council to authorize this type of program. Attorney Knutson explained that what we were dealing with is one deferred compensation plan that the City has adopted. He explained that we have a trust agreement with Inter- national City Management Association for administering the deferred compen- sation plan. He stated then we have individual agreements between the City and each employee in which the employee designates how the money is going to be invested. He stated what we needed to do would be to have a motion that would authorize the City Manager to enter into these agreements designating both ICMA and IDS, depository for investing deferred compensa- tion. Councilman Stamon so moved. Councilman McPhee seconded. Councilman Hesla asked if there was any reason why we had to limit it to two. Attorney Knutson explained that there was a problem with bookwork. He stated two was not the magic number yet but that the Council needed to approve each one and there may come a point in time at which there would be too many options for payroll to deal with. Councilman Stamon noted that the County and the PUD offered this same type of service to their employ- ees. The motion carried with Councilman Hallett.abstaining. 10. UAC Meeting for Discussion on Telecable Franchise Renewals Scheduled The Council scheduled a meeting of the Utility Advisory Committee for November 23, 1987, at 10:30 a.m. 11. Resolution Passed Finalizing City Council's Guideline for Financial Requests Mayor Whidden provided background and read the Resolution by title, entitled, RESOLUTION NO. 26 -87 A RESOLUTION of the Port Angeles City Council establishing guidelines for considering proposals for promotional services. 874 CITY COUNCIL MEETING November 17, 1987 -7- Councilman Schermer moved to pass the Resolution as read by title. Coun- cilman Quast seconded with an amendment that under Item No. F., Council and staff discussed the wording of the amendment. Following extensive discus- sion, Councilman Quast amended Section 2F to read, "Proposals for $10,000 or more from non profit organizations will only be considered if such organizations have, or are willing to have, a City representative as a member of the organization's board of directors and /or at the option of the City, the City has the right to inspect the financial records of that organization." On call for the question the motion, as amended carried, with Councilman McPhee voting "No 12. Discussion of Tentative Agreement Between Port Angeles, Forks, Sequim, and Clallam County for Funding Health Services Councilman Stamon felt that the proposal before the Council tonight was a significant step in the right direction. She corrected Item 5, changing solid waste "utility" to solid waste district. Council and staff discussed the proposal at great length. Councilman Schermer moved to authorize the City Manager to proceed with final negotiations of an agreement, based on the guidelines outlined in the November 12th letter from Manager Flodstrom to Commissioner Gaydeski. Councilman Stamon seconded, asking for the caveat that if they cannot reach agreement, it be returned to the committee. Councilman Hallett thanked Councilmen Stamon, Quast, and Hesla for the amount of time they had put in on this Committee. On call for the question, the motion carried. The time being 10:00, Councilman Quast moved to complete the items on the agenda. Councilman Hesla seconded and the motion carried. 13. Interviews for Planning Commission Member Scheduled for Second Meeting in January Councilman Hesla moved to schedule interviews for Planning Commission candidates who had not yet been interviewed. Councilman Quast seconded, specifying that a special meeting be scheduled for 6 P.M. December 1st. Councilman McPhee felt new Councilmembers should be able to fill this first vacancy. Following extensive discussion, Councilman Hesla revised his motion to schedule interviews for the second meeting in Ja uary CCpc,u cil- man Quast withdrew his second. Councilman McPhee secondea." st ngly urged those interested in the position to attend Planning Commission meetings between now and that time. Councilman Stamon offered a friendly amendment, that we allow other members of the public who are interested in that position to come forward and apply before that date. Councilman Hesla concurred. The motion carried. X CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE REPORTS /LATE ITEMS Councilman McPhee inquired of Light Director Orton about the wood heat displacement program. He asked if the PUD was going to enter into this marketing program a second time this year. Light Director Orton understood that they were going to continue with it. Councilman Stamon noted that this had been discussed at the UAC meeting. She stated the information supplied at that time contained a letter from the person at Bonneville that was responsible for the administration of this program urging all of the utilities in the State to carefully consider their involvement in the program, because he did not feel the financial wherewithall for the program or benefit had been at all demonstrated and was very discouraging with respect to the program. Councilman McPhee requested a copy of that letter. Light Director Orton and Councilman Stamon noted that that letter had been included in a previous information agenda for the Council. Councilman Quast moved that the Public Works Department be authorized to consult with the City Hall architects to design, obtain and affix a City Hall sign on the beam between the two soldiers above the main entrance. Attorney Knutson explained that the rules of the Council provide that Council approval was needed prior to adding items to the Agenda. Councilman Quast then moved that this item be placed on the agenda of the next meeting. Council concurred. Councilman Quast referred to a letter in the information package from Mike Cleland. He recommended that the new Council take a very good inventory of what we have have done to our parking with yellow dots, red dots, white dots, etc. It was his distinct impression that the people were unhappy with the dot system, which was not enough explained through signage. 875 CITY COUNCIL MEETING November 17, 1987 Councilman Schermer stated there had been only a small number of com- plaints, although they had been quite vociferous. He stated that the red dotted spaces would be signed, which would do away with the dots eventually. He stated the Downtown Association wanted to offer free parking for one month during the Christmas season to see what effect it would have on the total Downtown. Councilman McPhee felt there might be an increase in sales tax as a result of the free parking for the month. He felt it was a good idea. Councilman Hesla referred to a letter from the City of Seattle regarding their letter to AWC supporting legislation for banning un- recyclable containers and requested the Council place that on the agenda as a resolution. Councilman Stamon explained that the Association of Washington Cities had accepted this as a priority for legislation for this year and would attempt to move some legislation through in the upcoming legislative year. She felt we might want to keep an eye on the legislation and express support as a City when the legislation came through. Councilman Hallett discussed briefly with Attorney Knutson the status of the variance for the Red Lion. Councilman Hallett asked about the Fire Department's monthly report and the substantial increase in fire prevention activities. Fire Chief Glenn explained that last year this time, we were in the process of replacing the Fire Marshal and this position had been filled by a very energetic "go- getter" type of individual. Councilman Hallett commended the Fire Department on the fact that they had done year to -date almost 100 more lectures, classes, demonstrations than the previous year which he said went along with the Council's policy of fire prevention more than just firefighting. Councilman Hallett discussed briefly with Public Works staff the proposed Park Avenue trail crosswalk. Office Engineer Ridout stated that Public Works was also planning on installing a second light on the north side to make sure it was well lit on both sides. Councilman Hallett commended Administrative Services Director Wolfe and his staff for the excellent audit report received back from the Washington State Auditor. Councilman Stamon reported on the Transit Board meeting held recently where they had approved the budget. She stated the budget would be lean and tight and the revision of fares, she noted three public hearings had been held on the proposed rate increases and virtually no one from the public had appeared. She reported that the Human Services Committee had met last week and was basically at a stalemate until some final figures from the budgets of the various entities were presented. She stated that committee would come back to the table early in December with some fairly firm budget predictions. She mentioned information in the information agenda including status on the "E" Street reservoir cover. She asked the Department of Public Works if they had not already done so, to please send a memo dated the 17th to the people that were as the neighbor meeting so that they are aware of the changes that had been made. She announced that they were successful in lowering the height of the reservoir cover by about a foot and a half, though it had increased the cost by She referred to a letter from Lindberg Associates thanking two members of the Public Works Department, Larry Romig and Kirk Johnston. She asked Councilmembers to review the listing of the legislative priorities of AWC and let her know if there were concerns. She also drew attention to the mission statement and marketing plan for the Tourism and Convention Association of Clallam County. She felt it was a very good planning document for TCA for the next two years. She pointed out a letter of thanks to Officer Gallagher who is working with the DARE program. Councilman Quast thanked the Chowder House and Mayor Whidden who also sent flowers to the opening of the new City Council chambers. Mayor Whidden felt it would be a wise move if the new council set aside a space in the new lobby for pictures of the new mayor and council. He asked that this item be placed on the next council agenda. Councilman Quast brought up the policy of selection of a mayor pro -tem. Attorney Knutson felt this best left to the new council. cuy U, 1) ci lt" h io-o kt_ c{ m r' e C n) ro t f/,_ C 4 G'1 e0 d� M1 �,{t Val VS �c� t -8- 876 CITY COUNCIL MEETING November 17, 1987 XI ADJOURN TO EXECUTIVE SESSION The meeting was adjourned to executive session at 10:50 P.M. for the purpose of discussing labor negotiations for approximately 15 minutes. XII RETURN TO OPEN SESSION The meeting returned to open session at 11:07 P.M. Manager Flodstrom distributed a schedule of proposed meetings for budget revisions and Capital Improvement Plan. Council and staff discussed it at some length. Councilman Stamon spoke against meeting on December 5, preferring to meet four hours on December 2, and four hours on December 3. Councilman Hesla concurred. Councilman Stamon moved that the Council meet on December 2 and 3, 1987, and conduct public sessions at that point to hear from special agencies and from department heads and that we advertise those as special meetings of the Council at 5:00. Councilman Hesla seconded. She included in her motion to set the public hearing for December 8, 1987, on the budget and the CIP at 7:00 P.M. The motion carried.
