WA 98362 Port Angeles, WA 98362 (aso) ~.~-~r~ · ~x (3so) e-mall: mcsully99 Oyahoo.~om Dear Mr. Wiggins and City Council Members: Thank you for reviewing our proposal and funding request. Family Planning of Clallam County is seeking funds to hire a male educator to provide services on reproductive health and sexuality. The pdmary population served by this proposal will be adolescent males of middle school age. Funding this proposal would enable us to provide consistent, medically accurate information to youth about high-risk behavior and consequences, decision making, resiliency and assertiveness skills, self-esteem, as well as, birth control and sexually transmitted diseases. Most teen pregnancy prevention efforts focus on females; adolescent males appear to be an under served population. This program would provide outreach to males about reproductive health and sexuality issues. The value and potential of this program is undeniable. A one-year budget is attached. Any amount you care to invest in this program would be sincerely appreciated. The following narrative details our agency's mission, the population served, justification for this funding request, and implications of unintended and teen pregnancies. Family Planning of Clallam County is in the process of moving to a larger facility. We anticipate the move to be complete by July 1, 1999. Prevention of unintended pregnancies can reap substantial savings in associated social and economic costs. If you would like more information, please contact me at the above number. Thank you for your time and attention. I look forward to headng from you. Sincerely, Michelle C. Howe Executive Director PORT ANGELES FORKS Family Planning of Clallam County's mission is to assure that all individuals in Clallam County have access to quality health care and social services relating to human sexuality and fertility. Reproductive health care and education services enable individuals to make decisions according to their own value systems. Fact-based, medically accurete information presented in an unbiased manner promotes knowledge of reproductive health and access to health care services. Comprehensive sexuality education reduces teen and unintended pregnancies and sexually trensmitted diseases. Family Planning of Clallam County (FPCC) provides youth services to develop self-esteem, life skills, and self-sufficiency. Our clinic and community education services are designed to increase awareness, promote reproductive health, and prevent unintended pregnancies and diseases. Education services connect individuals to the social and health services they need. Family Planning has recognized the need to increase these services to males in our community. Often, teen pregnancy prevention efforts are focused on young females. It is important that males understand their bodies, puberty changes, pregnancy and disease prevention, as well as learn resiliency skills. Funds will be used to hire, train and support a male educator to provide the labor-intensive services necessary to fulfill our projected outcomes. Funds will also be used to purchase contemporary educational materials for presentation and distribution. A male educator will develop support group services, provide education services at the schools, particularly at the middle school level, and to incarcerated youth at the Detention Facility. Outreach to males will increase knowledge about anatomy and physiology, health, pregnancy and disease prevention, as well as, self-esteem, decision-making, and goal setting. The strategies employed require substantial investments in personnel. Often young males do not feel comfortable talking to a female educator about these "sensitive" issues and their needs or concerns may not be addressed. A male educator providing the same educational services may address the gap in collaborative teen pregnancy prevention efforts. We are .tenaciously seeking private funding to supplement and sustain our growing education programs. This projected budget costs may not seem substantial when one considers that the medical expenses for just one state paid birth from prenatal through labor and delivery is approximately $5,700.00. As you can see from the attached project budget, when one compares the costs of just one unintended pregnancy and the benefits of pregnancy planning for the child, mother, family, and community, it is imperative that this project be funded and executed as soon as possible. According to the 1997 Clallam County Community Health Report, "Pregnancy. and childbirth are very important in setting the stage for a healthy community." In 1998, to meet community demand, we hired another part-time Health Educator, Chandra Huston. Ms. Huston is providing classroom education, the "Baby Think It Over" program, and reproductive health services at the Clallam County Juvenile Detention Facility. She has also been asked to present our "innovative" programs at a Juvenile Court Workers Association Conference this fall. Our Juvenile Detention Facility programs have statewide attention, as there is support to replicate it in other institutions. According to the Medical Assistance Administration's First Steps Database, of all births in Clallam County in 1996, 60% were paid by Medicaid. Babies of unintended pregnancies are at higher dsk for prenatal exposure to harmful or toxic substances (such as drug or alcohol use by the mother), and higher dsk of Iow birth weight and neonatal death. 4 Females who experience an unintended pregnancy are at greater risk for domestic violence, poverty, and lack of education and career opportunities. According to the Washington State Department of Health, Family Planning and Reproductive Health Division, for each state and federal dollar spent on family planning services for state residents in 1991, six to one hundred and twenty-seven dollars in related social and health service expenditures were saved the following two years. Although Family Planning can not claim sole responsibility for declining teen pregnancy rates in the county, we are very active in community efforts to address teen pregnancy. Family Planning is the only agency in the county that provides comprehensive, high quality, and affordable reproductive health care and education services. A Family Planning Health Educator provides health and human sexuality classes at five schools in two school districts. Our target population is Iow-income women, and teens. Family Planning works with Juvenile Detention Facility Administration and staff to provide reproductive health services for "high-risk" youth. Requests for services have increased substantially over the last three years. We have state and federal teen pregnancy prevention and abstinence education programs. Family Planning has school-based education programs in Clallam and Neah Bay(s), Forks, Port Angeles, and Sequim. These grant-funded projects are currently being evaluated by the University of Washington's Institute of Public Policy. Desired and well-timed pregnancies allow for family preparation to maximize the health and opportunities of children and parents. Indicators of our agency's success are an increase in number of requests for information and agency services. An increase in number of community presentations and educational materials distributed. An increase in community- networking opportunities to address teen and unintended pregnancies and related social-health issues. This community network collectively reduces teen, unintended, and Medicaid paid births in the county. Another indicator of success is an increase in the number of unduplicated clients served by our education programs and our clinic. This program focuses on adolescent males who are currently underserved. Funds would be used as one-time, start-up funds for project services that can reduce unintended pregnancies and related social and health costs. Funding this project will fortify community efforts to promote abstinence and reduce teen pregnancies, increase access to reproductive health care and education services, and reduce transmission of sexually transmitted infections.

CITY COUNCIL MEMO DATE: July 6, 1996 To: ]VIAYOR BRAUN AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: Jack Pittis, Interim City Manager SUBJECT: Award of 1999 Eighth Street Bridge Maintenance (Project 99-12) Summary_: This project consists of budgeted routine maintenance to the existing wooden bridges that carry Eighth Street over Valley Creek and Tumwater Creek respectively. The bridges require the replacement of seven deteriorating timbers and pier shoring as identified during the most recent WSDOT semi-annual inspection. Recommendation: Award the contract for the Eighth Street Bridge Repairs Project 99-12 to the lowest responsible bidder, General Construction Co., for the proposed amount of $49,560. Background / Analysis: Proposals were solicited from four local construction companies, on the City's Small Works Roster, who are qualified for structural bridge repairs. Two proposals where received and reviewed June 14, 1999. The results of our request for pi ~osals are as follows: ~i~..+.:i~!~!~,~i~.;:~*~ s..-.-- .-~. ;,~':~'~.~<,-:'~m;"~,~;q~--.~-'-.

CITY COUNCIL MEMO DATE: July 6, 1999 To: MAYOR BRAUN ~ CrrY COUrNC~L FROM: Jack Pittis, Interim City Manager SUI~CT: Final Payment and Acceptance; Landfill Cell 3 Expansion Project No. 98-04 Summary: Delhur Industries Inc. has completed all work and construction change orders associated with the project to construct the final landfill Cell #3 and has requested final acceptance and payment for the project. The completed work consisted of excavation and lining of the final cell along with extensions of the gas collection system. Change orders included adding a berm, grade adjustments, paving of the entrance road, and restoration of the storm drain outfall at the cemetery damaged by the storm in 1996-1997. Recommendation: Accept the project and authorize the final payment to Deihur Industries Inc. in the amount of $255,878.13 and the release of the retainage held in escrow upon receipt of clearances from the Departments of Revenue and Labor and Industries. Background/Analysis: This project completes the cell construction for the landfill. Delhur completed the work which has been reviewed and recommended for acceptance by Parametrix Inc., our consultant for the construction. The total contract cost, including change orders, was $1,817,049.57 with total payments to Delhur in the amount of $1,815,830.63 plus applicable taxes. The differing amounts were due to a net reduction in the unit item quantities used to complete the project and construction change orders to: add a berm for stormwater runoff control ($25,408.44), grade adjustments to meet the old liner ($13,408.83), paving of the entrance road ($35,131.30), and restoration of the storm drain outfall at the cemetery ($196,923.67). The project was funded by the Solid Waste Utility Fund supplemented with FEMA/State Emergency Services participation (up to 87.5%) in the change order for storm drain outfall restoration at the cemetery. Future work remaining at the landfill will be the final closure work for Cell #3 which will include further extension of the gas collection system and placement of a cover membrane over Cells 1, 2 and 3 and capping with soils and compost material and final seeding. This closure work will be phased from north to south as final grades of sufficient widths are completed which will allow efficient construction. The phased closure will reduce the amount of rainfall runofffrom entering the cell and thereby reduce the amount of leachate which has to be treated before discharge to the wastewater treatment plant. The phased closure will be discussed at future UAC and Council meetings.

ADJOURN TO The meeting adjourned to Executive Session for approximately one half hour to discuss EXECUTIVE SESSION: a matter of labor negotiations and potential litigation. RETURN TO OPEN The meeting returned to open session at 6:07 p.m. SESSION: CALL TO ORDER - Mayor Braun called the regular meeting of the Port Angeles City Council to order at REGULAR SESSION: 6:07 p.m. PLEDGE OF The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag was led by Mayor Braun. ALLEGIANCE: CEREMONIAL 1. Swearing in of New Police Officer David Dombrowski MATTERS/ PROCLAMATIONS: Deputy ChiefRiepe introduced Officer Dombrowski and informed the Council that he had graduated fifth in a class of 31 at the State Police Academy. Mayor Braun Swearing in New administered the oath of office to Officer Dombrowski. Police Officer WORK SESSION: 2. Presentation by Promus Hotel Presentation by Interim Manager Piths introduced Mr. Troy Woody of Promus Hotels (DoubleTree), Promus Hotel 221 North Lincoln Street, who inlxoduced Frank Welton, Vice-President and Managing Director for the Western Washington region. Mr. Woody then gave a slide presentation demonstzatmg the history of the Promus Hotels and reviewing the status and success of the Company. Mr. Woody explained why he thought past endeavors to obtain a convention center in Port Angeles have failed and why the Veto Burton Memorial Center is inadequate for ..... -T ...................................... -I~ CITY COUNCIL MEETING June 15, 1999 WORK SESSION: conference use. (Cont'd) He described the DoubleTree in Port Angeles, reviewed its history, and noted that Presentation by significantly less capital investment would be required to convert the hotel to a Promus Hotel (Cont'd) convention center as opposed to constructing a new facility. Current market projections were performed and compared to the 1997 study rendered on behalf of Shilo Inns, which showed Promus to be on target. Groups of between 200 and 400 have been targeted as possible facility users. Mr. Woody reviewed the community benefits, to include continued revitalization of the downtown waterfront, increased traffic and exposure for future tourism, as well as economic development. This would lead to an increase in employment and the tax base. Mr. Woody reviewed revenue projections and financial analyses for the City, based on the 1997 Chamber study. He stated anticipated revenues in the marketplace would be $1.3 million, bringing an increase in sales tax revenue of $36,000. An increase in utility consumption because of the conference center could generate $15,000 in utility sales. Mr. Woody reviewed the reasons Promus Hotels could be effective in realizing and managing a successful conference center in Port Angeles. Mr. Woody described proposed cost sharing with the City of Port Angeles: funding the design of the facility, permits and environmental impact studies, building of the facility and modifications to the existing kitchen, purchase of start-up equipment, and support of a city-wide shuttle service to transport guests to other hotels during conventions. He described modifications which would be required to change the hotel into a conference center and why they were necessary. Mr. Woody reviewed details relative to the cost analysis, noting that the Promus Hotels was very excited about a potential parmership with the City of Port Angeles which would be fiscally responsible for both parties. The new facilities would allow for the increase of sales for many local businesses during the shoulder and off season periods. Mr. Woody informed the Council there have been six questions he has been typically asked, which he reviewed in detail. Councilman Wiggins asked if the Promus organization~.has entered into other partnerships such as that being sought here. Frank Welton, Promus Hotel Corp., 246 219th Way, Redmond, Washington, stated that Promus is currently working with the City of Phoenix, AZ; Sacramento, CA; and has made arrangements in Modesto, CA. The difference, in this case, is that Promus akeady owns the land. Mr. Welton explained that other conference centers managed by Promus are operated under a management agreement wherein the City owns and Promus operates the facility, taking in all the revenues and paying the City a commission. The City would be required to pay all maintenance, capital upkeep, utilities and other operating expenses. Another option might be for Promus to own the building and assume all liabilities. Interim Manager Piths reminded the Council that this was a work session item and not open to public comment at this time. However, a number of letters have been received on this concept, some positive and some negative. Interim Manager Piths suggested this be referred to the Port Angeles Works! Committee and possibly the Lodging Tax Committee for review. A method of evaluating this proposal can be brought back to a future meeting, which would also allow for public comment. At that time, Council can decide whether it wishes to proceed or not. Councilman Campbell felt a consensus of the Council was needed to direct staff to follow up on the proposal, perform due diligence and investigation, obtain community input, and bring a proposal back for further evaluation. Councilman Doyle agreed and felt further investigation was necessary to discover all the ramifications of financing the project and compare benefits vs. costs to the City. He also felt follow-up should occur regarding the possibility of having a joint partnership with Promus and the City both 313 C1TY COUNCIL MEEIING June 15, 1999 WORK SESSION: committing funds. Councilman Doyle did not think the extra 2% room tax generated (Cont'd) by the conference center would be sufficient to pay a $1 million loan. Presentation by Discussion followed, and Messrs. Woody and Welton responded to questions and Promus Hotel (Cont'd) provided clarification. Councilmember McKeown, echoed the feelings of Councilmen Campbell and Doyle; she felt that a conclusion could be reached on this issue; however, much more information is needed. Councilmember McKeown also suggested that Downtown Forward be involved in this consideration as well. Councilman Wiggins emphasized that a time frame should be established, and perhaps Tim Smith, Economic Development Director, should be in charge to ensure an answer is given to Promus in a timely fashion. Interim Manager Pittis agreed with Councilmembers Wiggins and McKeown regarding a time frame and adding Downtown Forward as part of the work team for this enterprise. Mayor Braun asked Interim Manager Pittis to start work toward establishing proposed guidelines and an activity schedule regarding this proposal for discussion at the next Council meeting. Mayor Braun thanked Messrs. Woody and Welton for their time. LATE ITEMS TO BE Councilman Wiggins noted Council had received a letter from Family Planning PLACED ON THIS OR regarding the need for a male educator in the middle schools; he felt this was an FUTURE AGENDA: important issue. Councilmember McKeown heartily agreed, as prevention is the key. Councilman Wiggins will invite a representative from Family Planning to the next Council meeting to discuss the issue. FINANCE: 1. Consultant Contract for Gateway Project Consultant Contract for Mayor Braun reviewed the information provided by the Public Works Department and Gateway Project asked Interim Manager Pittis for additional information. Interim Manager Pittis noted corrections had been made on Pages 5 and 6 of the letter from Merritt+Pardini, resulting in a slight increase to the cost. It was staffs recommendation that the "not to exceed" dollar value for the contract be $677,000 rather than $673,691. Interim Manager Pittis reviewed the contents of the packet on this matter, explaining why the contract was different from others performed in the past. Interim Manager Pittis stated the agreement is currently under legal review by the City Attorney, as well as an attorney consultant, and by Attorney Craig Miller on behalf of Clallam Transit. Public workshops will be held in July and, with Council's concurrence, staff can begin the public relations work necessary to advise the public. Discussion followed, and Interim Manager Pittis and City Engineer Kenworthy responded to questions and provided clarification. Councilman Wiggins moved to authorize the Mayor to sign an agreement consistent with the proposed scope, subject to the City Attorney's approval, with the negotiated fee not to exceed $677,000. Councilmember McKeown seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. Break Mayor Braun recessed the meeting for a break at 7:10 p.m. The meeting reconvened at 7:17 p.m. PUBLIC HEARINGS - Close Out of Community Development Block Grant for Housing Rehabilitation Project OTHER: Phase III Housing Rehab - Phase III Mayor Braun reviewed the information provided by the Public Works Department, and Property Manager Madison provided further information. Mr. Madison introduced Carolyn Sparkman of Community Action, who has been the acting administrator of this program. CITY COUNCIL MEETING June 15, 1999 PUBLIC I-IEARINGS- Carolyn Sparkman, 122 Mt. McDonald Rd., distributed to the Council pictures of OTItER: houses which have been rehabilitated through this program. Phase III of the project has (Cont'd) been a great success, with 60 households representing 132 individuals served. There were 28 home repairs, 40 health and safety emergency repairs, and 16 handicapped Housing Rehab - Phase III accessibility projects. Thirty-six disabled individuals received help during this phase, (Cont'd) far more than the previous two. Ms. Sparkman described the types of repairs provided by this program and stated the people assisted were both physically and financially incapable of doing the repairs themselves. Ms. Sparkman reviewed the pictures and described the work performed, which made homes more handicapped accessible thanks to this program. Mayor Braun opened the public hearing at 7:25 p.m. There was no public testimony, and Mayor Braun closed the public hearing at 7:25 p.m. Councilman Doyle moved to close out Phase 11I of the Community Development Block Grant and authorize the Mayor to sign the Grantee Performance Close-Out Report. Councilman Campbell seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. PUBLIC HEARINGS - 1. Final ,4ssessrnent - Golf Course Road Sewer ULID 215 QUASI JUDICIAL: Mayor Braun reviewed the information provided by the Public Works Department and ULID 215 Final asked Interim Manager Pittis for additional input. Interim Manager Pittis noted a Assessment correction to the third recommendation in that the connection charge ordinance, if established, would be for outside the ULID and any subsequently subdivided lots or added connections. At Interim Manager Pittis' request, City Engineer Kenworthy informed the Council of the method used to develop the assessment and how he arrived at the costs and distribution amounts. Mr. Kenworthy explained that, by spreading the cost of the ULID over the number of actual hookups and the number of anticipated future hook ups, the final assessment was reduced from $11,362 to $7,101. He realized this was still a significant increase; however, it did represent the actual cost of the project. Mr. Kenworthy reviewed the process of developing the sewer assessment method. Interim Manager Pittis introduced Mr. David Thompson, Bond Counsel for the City. David Thompson of Preston, Gates & Ellis, 701 Fifth Ave., Suite 5000, Seattle, Washington, emphasized that only those property owners who had filed with the City Clerk a written objection to the ULID could speak tonight. Written objection could still be handed to the City Clerk at this time in order to address the Council. Mr. Thompson presented the legal background regarding ULIDs and the Council's role in reviewing the final assessment role and the options available. Attorney Knutson announced that a court reporter was present to assure a record of all public comments made. He stated that a brief, hand written statement of objection would suffice prior to giving verbal comments. Mr. Thompson clarified that property owners who had filed a written objection were not required to speak tonight, as the objection has been placed before the Council as a result of being filed; however, they may speak if they wish. Mayor Braun opened the public hearing at 7:43 p.m. Fritz Conrad, 1921 E. Maddock Rd., stated he had written his objections and would not elaborate. However, he did wish to stress that he did not believe the assessment improved his property to the extent charged. Dottie Foster, 1840 Woodhaven Lane, hoped that those who have been given the extra assessments were not scapegoats to cover the extended costs, as the timing of the sewer installation was not their problem to begin with. She stated her property had no CITY COUNCIL MEETING June 15, 1999 PUBLIC HEARINGS - potential for development when the building permit was applied for, and this fact was QUASI JUDICIAL: made clear at that time. The property can never be subdivided at this point, and she (Cont'd) would not benefit from a second sewer hook up as it would not add any value to her property. ULID 215 Final Assessment (Cont'd) Councilman Wiggins asked if the issue of placement of Ms. Foster's home on the property came up before or after the assessment roll. Mr. Kenworthy responded the house was not constructed when the preliminary estimate was formulated. He agreed that a large house was constructed on that lot, which could affect staff's thinking on this point. Ms. Foster indicated that she and her husband had sent Mr. Kenworthy a letter regarding the nonsubdivision of their property, and his response at that time was that he did recommend one connection. Dean Benson, 1830 E. Woodhaven, advised the Council he had two lots on Woodhaven, with a home on one lot. He agreed with the assessment for one hookup on that lot. However, after the project was completed, he purchased a second lot with three hook ups. This particular piece of land is not subdividable according to Mumcipal Code; therefore, he could only put one house on the property. The additional two hook ups are of no benefit, unless the road is changed from a City road to a private road, which he did not foresee. Joame Pennington, 4912 Columbus Ave., Bellingham, spoke on behalf of Mary Neske, 1120 S. Golf Course Road. She noted a letter had been sent from Mrs. Neske's attorney, and she noted some corrections, such as the parcel is five acres as opposed to ten. Ms. Pennington stated the family had concerns, as the property was purchased in 1951, and it was never intended to be developed. A home was built, and the land was used as a mini-farm. The concern is that the assessment is based on ten lots. Ms. Pennington then offered to read aloud the letter from the attorney. Attorney Knutson noted this was not necessary, as the Council had been provided with copies. Ms. Pennmgton noted that anywhere in the letter that reference is made to ten acres should be changed to five acres. She stated this property is open space, and nine hook ups are of no use. Mrs. Neske is on a fixed income, and the family does not want the property lost due to this assessment. Gary Neske, son of Mrs. Neske, stated he has spoken to various staffmembers several times over the past five years. Recently, the proposed building of a substation was discussed, and residents of the area need to know if this area is partly wetlands and how the substation might affect people living next to it, etc. He felt that, due to recent developments, the residents need more time to look into these improvements. As it stands now, his mother would be responsible for 1/7 of this project, or $71,000. The intent was never to develop the land. Mr. Neske went on to give a brief history of how the need for the sewer project transpired. Lance Ruddick, 1937 E. Maddock Road, stated he had purchased his home last year. At that time, he had been told of the sewer line going in and an assessment being levied. Mr. Ruddick called the City to ask the amount of the assessment and was told it would be about $4,000. The assessment is now 130% over the cost of the original project. Mr. Ruddick stated he has one and one-half acres with a septic system over a gravel pit. He could not see the need to ever replace the septic system. If the property below him is developed, he would lose his view which decreases his property value. He did not feel it fair that a project that was voted on at $4,000 per hook up should be raised to $11,000 per hook up. He felt someone should have stopped the project, looked at it, and decided to move on it in the summer. He did not believe the sewer hook up would raise his property value if the land below him is developed. Councilman Hulett asked Mr. Ruddick if he was sure his assessment was $11,000, as Council's paperwork noted it at $9,878. Mr. Ruddick stated his preliminary said CITY COUNCIL MEETING June 15, 1999 PUBLIC HEARINGS - $4,700, and the last report was $I 1,362 per lot, which was reduced to $7,100. He felt QUASI JUDICIAL: it was outrageous that no one stopped a project that went from $4,700 to $11,000. (Cont'd) Mr. Ruddick stated it was outrageous to run a sewer on property that is mostly ULID 215 Final undevelopable and has a 30% grade. City staff has estimated 45 additional hook ups Assessment (Cont'd) are possible. Mr. Ruddick felt that could only be accomplished if the sewer line is run up another hill to reach beyond Maddock Rd. At that point, he would have to put in a pump station to pump up to the sewer line, while the people across the street are uphill and would only have to mn a line, yet they are not part of the ULID. There was no further public testimony, and Mayor Braun closed the public hearing at 8:00 p.m. Interim Manager Piths suggested that, based on the written and verbal testimony received, the Council consider sending this item back to staff to consider the issues presented with a report being brought back to a future meeting. Councilman Doyle moved to refer this issue back to staff to consider written and oral testimony. Councilman Wiggins seconded the motion. Councilman Doyle suggested staff meet with those residents who have provided written testimony in order to get closer to their concerns. Mayor Braun agreed and felt all interested parties should be kept advised of the progress on this issue. Interim Manager Piths reminded the Council that the assessments can be reduced; however, they cannot be raised without another public heating and individual notices sent. A vote was taken on the motion, which carried unanimously. Mayor Braun thanked all those who testified this evening. Comprehensive Plan 2. Comprehensive Plan Amendments - CPA 99-01 Ordinance No. 3021 Mayor Braun reviewed the information provided by the Planning Department and asked Director Collins for additional input. Director Collins explained that this amendment contains four areas of revision, the basis of which he described. He pdinted out that the maps mounted behind Council represented the four areas under discussion. Referring to the Ordinance on Page 131 of the packet, Director Collins noted that staff would like to make a change which would address some of the County's concerns regarding this amendment. On Page 2, the phrase".., directed the Planning Director to request that the Board of Clallam County Commissioners amend... "be amended to read "... directed the Planning Director to make application to the Board of Clallam County Commissioners to amend..." Director Collins reminded the Council that the City and County Comprehensive Plans can only be changed once a year. The City's process begins in March, with a decision made in June. The County's process begins in January, with a decision made in the Spring. Therefore, the City's process is preceding the County's process, which is the correct procedure. Director Collins reviewed the information contained in the packet and the steps taken to get to this point. Discussion followed, and Director Collins responded to questions and provided additional clarification. Councilman Campbell asked if, in order for the City to recommend that the Urban Growth Boundary be moved, would it be compatible with the City's Comprehensive Plan, or could the City recommend the County move the boundary without changing the City's plan. Director Collins and Attorney Knutson responded. Attorney Knutson noted that the Council does not have to amend the Comprehensive Plan in order to ask the County Commissioners to initiate an amendment to the UGA; the Planning Commission has recommended the amendment to the Comprehensive Plan as a way of starting that process. The Planning Commission made the recommendation because the City received a request from a property owner who wants the UGA extended. Attorney Knutson stated that the attorney for the property owner is present and would address the Council during the public hearing. At Councilman Doyle's request, Director Collins reviewed a previous year's proposed crrY COUNCIL MEEIING June 15, 1999 Comprehensive Plan Comprehensive Plan Amendment and explained why, in the current case, the applicants Ordinance No. 3021 could not pursue a Comprehensive Plan Amendment with the County. (Cont'd) Councilman Campbell questioned why the County was in opposition to the CPA 99- 0lC amendment, and Director Collins responded. Discussion proceeded, and Director Collins continued to provide clarification. Mayor Braun opened the public hearing at 8:32 p.m. Craig Miller, 230 E. Fifth Street, representing Michelle and Norbert Juhasz, spoke regarding application CPA 99-01C, the UGA eastern boundary. Mr. Miller stated he agreed with the recommendation of the Planning Commission and urged the City Council to adopt that amendment. Mr. Miller stated he has observed planning efforts going into the Deer Park Gateway Project. This project will create the gateway to Port Angeles, but it lies outside the City's growth area, which he felt to be ironic. Mx. Miller noted that if the City waits for the County to amend its Comprehensive Plan before acting on this amendment, it would postpone the change for another year. He suggested that, if the Council agrees to this amendment, it should state that if the County agreed to amend its Comprehensive Plan, the City's amendment would also be considered passed so the applicants do not have to repeat this process. Mayor Braun asked for counsel's opinion on Mr. Miller's suggestion. Attorney Knutson stated he had no problem with the suggestion, and the Council could either draft language to this regard immediately, or staff could bring it back to a future meeting. Director Collins stated this could be handled in the same manner as the original Plan. If the County adopted the change, the language already in place has the same effect on the City's Comprehensive Plan. Some administrative language corrections can be made to replace words such as "proposed revision," but he did not feel it would affect an applicant in the County's jurisdiction. Mr. Miller felt that Director Collins' comments addressed his concerns, and he thanked the Council for its time. Andy Duran, 132 S. Ridgeview Drive, Four Seasons Ranch, had concerns before tonight's meeting. He felt that Attorney Knutson, Director Collins, and Attorney Miller had clarified many aspects for him. He stated that, if the City approves the application for development on the bluff, it was his hope that measures would be taken to protect the Four Seasons Ranch community. Councilman Wiggins asked if the Four Seasons community would benefit if the City managed the development there. Director Collins stated the City would be managing the development if the area is annexed to the City. Until the area is annexed, the County would be determining the development/permitting review process. For developments that occur in the UGA, the County should coordinate review of the permits with the City, thereby allowing the City the opportunity to comment. Mx. Duran again stressed he was simply concerned with environmental protection of the Four Seasons community and was glad to see development occur. He thanked the Council for the opportunity to comment. At Councilman Williams' request, Director Collins provided further information regarding the development and enforcement of regulations in the UGA.

Interim Manager Piths replied that the largest exposure would be failure to remove the facility from the landfill, and he felt Attorney Knutson could add a provision to the contract guaranteeing removal. Discussion ensued, and Attorney Knutson explained that a bond or deposit amount could be specified in the contract to cover removal of the system if necessary. Councilman Doyle gave a brief synopsis of the TOPS presentation given at the UAC meeting and explained why the UAC felt a positive recommendation was appropriate. Councilman Campbell noted that he had spoken to staff at the Olympic Air Pollution Control Authority (OAPCA) regarding this project.

FROM: Brad Collins, Planning Director ~ Sus~c~: Growth Management Act Funding for Annexation Study Summary: Under the Growth Management Act, the City of Port Angeles has received funding every two years for specific GMA implementation activities. In 1997, the City was funded in the amount of $11,409 to complete several specific annexation studies. City staffnow is proposing to undertake a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) for the annexation of the City's eastern urban growth area (UGA) instead of a public education program for an annexation election. Recommendation: Approve the use of the 1997-99 GMA funds for a Supplemental ElS with regards to the future annexation of the City's eastern urban l~rowth area. Background / Analysis: The GMA funded annexation studies have not been done, due to a lack of consensus about when and what kind of annexation process should be initiated. The State Department of Community, Trade, and Economic Development (DCTED) has provided the funds to the City for the annexation studies through June 30, 1999, and has accepted a change in the work product from a public education program leading to an annexation election to a proposed SEIS for the annexation of the City's eastern UGA. The best qualified consultant to perform a SEIS within the OMA funding level is Ryan Planning Resources, who prepared the Port Angeles Comprehensive Plan EIS and the City's Zoning Code SEIS. To that end, Ryan Planning Resources made a proposal (attached) to do an SEIS for annexation oi~ the east UOA. Although the GMA funds have been allocated and budgeted, the City Council is being asked endorse the revised direction of the annexation study. When completed, the SEIS will continue to be timely for a number of years and a necessary expenditure for annexation approval. The public education program would be most valuable when completed immediately before and during an annexation election, which cannot be anticipated at this time. An alternate direction would be to return the funding grant orS11,409 to DCTED and not undertake further annexation studies at this time.

The 1997- 99 GMA fimding for the City of Port Angeles in the amount orS11,409 was scheduled for three deliverable products: 1) a shared revenue agreement between the City of Port Angeles and Clallam County, 2) a- public education 'process and report, and 3) an annexation petition or election. While the City and the County officials have been discussing these products, there are no immediate deliverables.

When a proposal for an annexation is then put forward, the SEPA review and impact information will be readily available. A scope of work for this SEIS is attached. Based on these City expenditures and commitment of funds, the City requests a final 1999 payment of allocated GMA funds.

Upton, City Clerk/Management Assistant SUBJECT: Application for Horse Taxi License Gary Christensen, Candlelight Carriages Summary: The City Clerk's office is in receipt of an application from Mr. Gary Christensen, Candlelight Carriages, for a Horse Taxi license. Based on an ordinance adopted in May, 1995, the issuance of such a license is subject to City Council approval. Mr. Christensen will be present at the City Council meeting to provide the Council with additional information on his request, as well as to answer any questions posed by the Council. Recommendation: City Council approve the issuance of a Horse Taxi License to Mr. Gary Christensen, Candlelight Carriages, through June 30, 2000. Background/Analysis: Staff members have met with Mr. Christensen to review certain requirements pertinent to the operation of the horse taxi business, as set forth below: · Mr. Christensen has asked for authorization to use the City Pier for the horse taxi. The Parks & Recreation Department recommends approval of the pier use on a trial basis. Should there be any problems experienced, the applicant and the City could agree upon another route for the horse taxi. · Staging for the horse & buggy will take place in the garage of Budget Rent-a-Car. The home taxi would exit the garage to Front Street, proceed west to Laurel street and then north to Railroad Avenue. The Police Department supports this route to get the horse taxi to Railroad Avenue. · Mr. Christensen would like to park the taxi in the "tour bus only section" on the north side of Railroad Avenue. The City Engineer has studied that specific area and feels the parking 49 Mayor Braun and City Council July 6, 1999 Page Two for tour buses could be extended westward one space in order to accommodate the horse taxi. · Mr. Christensen has targeted 11:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. for his hours of operation, which are recommended for approval by the Chief of Police. · The applicant will be diapering the horse, bagging the waste and other debris related to the operation of the horse taxi and will take the bags away for disposal. The applicant has been informed he cannot use City dumpsters for this purpose. · Mr. Christensen does not plan to use any signage in operating the horse taxi business.

The City Council approved an application for a similar business in 1995 and, to staff's knowledge, there were no problems experienced in that particular business.

CITY COUNCIL MEMO DATE: JUNE 15, 1999 To: MAYOR BRAUN AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: Jack Pittis, Interim City Manager SUB, CT: Abatement of Structures at 2321 W. 18th Street. Summary: Structures at 2321 W. 18th Street have been vacant for at least 2 years and have become[ very dilapidated. The structures are not secure and have become an attractive nuisance for theI children in the adjacent apartment complex. The barn has lost most of the exterior wall bracing andl is in danger of collapse. The garage has exposed hazardous electrical wiring and the roof is sagging badly. The plumbing in the house has also been damaged and is inoperable. Recommendation:. Council authorize the transfer of funds from the General Fund to the Repair and Demolition Fund for the demolition of the barn, garage/shed and house at 2321 W. 18th Street in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 3.27 of the PAMC and the demolition of the structures. Background / Analysis: The Building Division of the Public Works and Utilities has received a number of complaints concerning the above referenced structures. We have inspected the structures and have determined that the barn and garage/storage shed are structurally unsound and the house is unsuitable for human occupancy. The barn and a portion of the garage has been used in the fabrication &drugs and has been severely damaged structurally due to the removal of contaminated material in the walls and floors. The house plumbing has been vandalized and is inoperable. The Building Division has followed the abatement procedure as required in PAMC 14.01.090 Appeals and the appeals period passed without the owner filing an appeal with the Construction Code Board of Appeals. The Uniform Code for the Abatement of Dangerous Buildings as adopted by the City calls for the removal of buildings that have been declared dangerous buildings. The Public Works and Utilities Department has received three quotes to demolish the structures as follows: * Demo debris testing $ 500.00 * Mordson Excavating Port Angeles $5,707.91 * RJ Services Port Angeles $5,730.00 * Gary Priest Excavating Port Angeles $6,332.00 Following the abatement of the structure a bill will be sent to the owner and if not paid a lien will be placed on the property.

Smith, Economic Development Direc~~-''f SUBJECT: Process for review of conference center proposal ~Summary_: A specific process for the review of the Promus Hotels' proposal for a partnership to develop a conference center is critical to gather the necessary information and gain public input on the proposal. Recommendation: Approve/modify the process set forth in this memo to conduct a review of the proposal submitted by Promus Hotels for a conference center. Background / Analysis: On June 15th, 1999, Troy Woody, General Manager of the Port Angeles DoubleTree Hotel and Frank Welton, Regional V.P. of Promus Hotel Corporation made a presentation to Council which proposed strategies for approaching a potential partnership between the Promus Corporation and the City of Port Angeles to build and manage a conference facility as an extension of the current hotel and restaurant operation. The proposal provided a brief background of the Promus Hotel Corporation, their acquisition and upgrading of their Port Angeles properly, and an overview of their sales and marketing capacity. In addition, the proposal offered assumptions of current market conditions and development concepts, together with cost estimates, revenue projections and potential community-wide benefits derived as a result of the proposed facility. Following the presentation, staffwas directed to provide an outline of a process to review the proposal at the next scheduled meeting of the Council. A method for systematically and effectively reviewing the proposal is outlined below. A series of steps are suggested that build on earlier studies and analysis conducted by the City and others in our community toward the development of a convention facility in Port Angeles. The suggested process aims to minimize further "consultant study" costs by relying on existing community resources and expertise to assist in the review effort. Step 1: Market Projections (Are proposed market and revenue projections realistic?) Step 2: Basic Design, Size and Facility Layout (Does proposed overall square footage and breakout spaces fit the needs of the target market?) Step 3 Schematic Design Options (What options are available on the proposed site and how do they relate to existing buildings, parking areas, and traffic flow patterns?) 67 Mayor Braun and City Council Process for review of conference center proposal Page 2 Step 4 Cost Estimates (What are the costs estimates based on completion of Step 3?). PUBLIC COMMENT BEFORE THE CITY COUNCIL Step 5 Affordability and Partnering Options (Based on Steps 1-4; How much can the "public side" of the potential partnership afford? What are the potential sources and terms available for financing? What options can be identified to share costs and potential risks through a public/private partnership and how might they be approached in potential negotiations between the City and Promus?) Step 6 City Council decision after final public comments and reports fi.om Council Committees, community groups and the general public. Staffproposes that the City seek assistance fi.om the North Olympic Peninsula Visitors and Convention Bureau for Steps 1, 2 and 5 (What are some potential sources of funding?), and in doing so offer to cover any "hard costs" incurred by the VCB in the process. In preliminary discussions with the VCB Director, these steps could be approached in a relatively low-cost effort through a review of existing studies for the building or expansion of similar facilities, a review of the marketing plans for these other facilities, and a review of upcoming conferences which they have scheduled. Such facilities are readily identifiable using the Pacific NW Meeting Planners Guide. A survey of other facilities would also be conducted to learn how each were actually funded and built. An additional survey would be performed by contacting the Society of Governmental Meeting Planners and/or the Washington Chapter of the Meeting Planners International, to gauge potential interest in Port Angeles and to ascertain the group size niche available to Port Angeles. In addition, 5-20 actual convention groups would be identified and contacted to see whether they might consider Port Angele in the future and what are their facility preferences. The completion of Steps 1 and 2 then provide data which would fold into Steps 3 and 4, the review of design options to meet the market niche, and ultimately an independent analysis of construction cost estimates to build the facility. Staff proposes this be done utilizing local architectural and engineering talents to assist the City in a basic review and analysis of spacial relationships, a schematic plan for the facility, site options and the associated cost estimates for the identified options. Upon the completion of Step 4, it is proposed that the City Council accept public comment before submitting the issue to existing City Council advisory boards including the Downtown Forward Executive Committee, the Port Angeles Works Economic Development Committee and the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee. Step 6 is the final City Council decision which would include the second solicitation of public comments and Council Committee repons. Dependent on the outcome of the decision, the Pon Angeles City Council Real Estate Committee would assume responsibility for potential negotiations.

Smith, Economic Development Direc SUBJECT: Appointment of a City Representative to the Clallam County Opportunity Fund Board Summary_: The County approved an ordinance adopting the "Opportunity Fund Program", designed to support economic development. The ordinance calls for the formation of the "Opportunity Fund Board" which consists of seven (7) members, with the cities of Forks, Port Angeles, Sequim, and the Port of Port Angeles each recommending a member. The County has asked that the City recommend a representative for Port Angeles. Recommendation: After careful consideration, it is the consensus of the Council Representatives to Port Angeles Works that the City forward to the County the names of Karen Grandbouche, and Karen Rosers to serve on the "Opportunity Fund Board". Background / Analysis: Last month, the Clallam County Commissioners approved an ordinance adopting the "Opportunity Fund Program". The fund has been designed to support economic development and specifically .job retention, expansion and creation opportunities. The ordinance calls for the formation of the "Opportunity Fund Board". The board will consist of seven (7) members, with the cities of Forks, Port Angeles, Sequim, and the Port of Port Angeles each recommending a member. The ordinance further states that board members shall have significant experience in one or more of the following at a senior management or supervisory level: · Business Finance or Banking Regional economic planning · Business recruitment and retention · Industrial or manufacturing business management · Civil engineering In observance of the County the criteria for appointment., City Council members Campbell, Williams and Hulett, all of whom serve on the City's Port Angeles Works Advisory Committee, and the City Economic Development Director have discussed a number of possible City representatives with experience in each area. After careful consideration, it is the consensus of the Council Representatives to Port Angeles Works that the City forward to the County the names of Karen Grandbouche, and Karen Rogers. Both these individuals meet multiple criteria elements and serve on the City Port Angeles Works Economic Development Committee. Due to the important nature of the Opportunity Fund Board, and the often busy personal schedules of the recommended representatives, both names would be forwarded with the acknowledgment that the City only have one vote on the board at any time with an alternate person available in case of scheduling conflicts. 69 70 pORTANGELES WASHINGTON, U.S.A.

CITY COUNCIL MEMO DATE: July 6, 1999 To: MAYOR BRAUN AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: Yvonne Ziomkowski, Finance Director S~CT: Position Replacement - Customer Services Manager The Customer Services Manager position was vacated on June 1, 1999, due to the promotion of the Accounting Manager/City Treasurer to Finance Director. The new Finance Director has absorbed the treasurer and budget preparation functions and will continue managing the Accounting division. Therefore, staff recommends changing the Accounting Manager/City Treasurer position to that of Customer Service Manager. The 10-12 person Customer Services Division has been managed by the Finance Director, but this is not the most efficient use of her time. It will be even more difficult now due to extended responsibilities. Timothy Smith was the Customer Services Manager until 1991 when he was transferred to Public Works. This position was never replaced in Finance. This position will be responsible for supervising the Customer Services division including cashiers, meter readers, collections, utility billing, and switchboard. Additionally, some of the accounting manager's duties relating to utilities will also be transferred to this position. The cost of this position is fully appropriated in the accounting budget. Staff recommends Council authorize the recruiting process for this position begin immediately. 78 p ORTAN'GELES WASHINGTON, U.S.A. CITY COUNCIL MEMO DATE: July 6, 1999 To: MAYOR BRAUN AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: Yvonne Ziomkowski, Finance Director SUBJECT: Position Replacement - Senior Accountant Recently diagnosed health problems have caused the resignation of the recently hired Senior Accountant, effective July 2, 1999. With the vacancy in the Accounting Manager position, filling this vacancy is critical to the operation of the accounting division, especially during a time of special projects. This position had already been authorized by the Council and is fully appropriated in the 1999 budget. Due to the length of time it takes to hire and train an individual, staff recommends starting the recruitment process immediately. 7{. WASHINGTON, U.S.A. CITY COUNCIL MEMO DATE: July 6, 1999 To: MAYOR BRAUN AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: Yvonne Ziomkowski, Finance Director SUBJECT: Position Replacement - Accounting Technician Karen Niemi, Accounting Technician, has announced her retirement on or about December 10, 1999. Personnel in the Accounting Division consists of four Accounting Technicians and a Senior Accountant. Karen has been with the City for 27 years and her knowledge of the finance system, general ledger, conservation loans, LIDs, and payroll will be very difficult to replace. Filling this vacancy is critical to the operation of the Accounting Division. It will take several months to hire and train an individual, therefore, staff recommends the Council authorize the recruitment process for the hiring of an Accounting Technician begin immediately. The position is fully budgeted for 1999. 80 ?#E C~ITY OF  ~ MONTHLY NEWS AND NOTES: Mission Statement: ln pclrtnership with our community, the Port Angeles Police Department recognizes its mission to serve in a compassionate, courteous, and professional manner, to promote freedom and peace of mind, pride in our neighborhoods, and the safety of our families.

Fifth St. City Of Port Angeles, WA 98362 Dear Scott; Just a note of congratulations for a job well done at the Feiro Marine Life Center. I visited the Center on Saturday, the 28th of May and was delighted to see the banners on Front Street as a lead in to the Center. There were people, taking pictures of the new sign at the parking area entrance and the directions to get to the Center entrance were clear and unmistakable. The building looks fresh and new and I'm sure will attract many visitors. The interior of the Center has a very attractive appearance to it. I had a chance to speak with Maitland and am convinced this will be a good partnership with benefits for all. I just thought that after our last discussion it is important to me to convey these thoughts to you. A great job and well done. Sincerely, ovely 110 poutANg s WASHINGTON, U.S.A.

As a courtesy to Mr. Sanderson who was present to make the TOPS Presentation, that item was placed at the top of the agenda. IV. Discussion Items: D. TOPS PRESENTATION Mr. Sanderson reviewed the information contained in the packet regarding the possible construction of a Thermal Oxidation Process System (TOPS) for on-site testing at the Port Angeles Landfill. He assured the Committee that the System could be removed, if desired, when testing was completed. Mr. Sanderson briefly reviewed the process and showed a short video which demonstrated the TOPS theory. Following the video, Mr. ganderson stressed that a test site is being sought, and the landfill would be the most likely spot to locate the system. He responded to questions and provided additional information and clarification regarding the TOPS unit. A minimum of one quarter acre is necessary for the test site, and Mr. Sanderson felt there were several suitable areas at the landfill. Councilman Campbell suggested staff' review the requirements and compile a list of possible test sites at the landfill. Councilman Williams expressed concern over liability issues regarding air pollution, etc., as a result of testing. Mr. Sanderson stated that, prior to testing, permits must be issued by the Olympic Air Pollution Control Authority (OAPCA), Department of Ecology (DOE), and County Health Department. Therefore, OAPCA would be the pollution regulatory agency, and any complaints 113 Utility Advisory Committee June 7, 1999 would be forwarded to them and the City is held harmless. Following further discussion, Councilman Doyle moved to recommend the City Council authorize and support the siting of a TOPS test facility for Lincoln Environmental Solutions, Inc., at the Port Angeles landfill, provided all necessary permits can be obtained to the satisfaction of the City Attorney's office and the Public Works and Utilities Department. Bill Myers seconded the motion. Following further discussion, a vote was taken on the motion, which carried unanimously. A. Telecommunication Ordinance Interim Manager Pittis explained that Attorney Knutson had been detained at another meeting and could not be present for this discussion. Therefore, this item will be treated as information only and brought back to the July meeting. He reviewed the information contained in the packet. Interim Manager Pittis referred to the brochure on the Local Telecommunications Infrastructures Options seminar which will be held in August of this year. Attorney Knutson will be attending this conference, and Interim Manager Pittis suggested that Chairman Campbell and one other member of the UAC also attend. Both Councilman Campbell and Councilman Doyle expressed interest. Councilman Campbell reminded the Committee that one of the City's goals under Quality of Life was establishment of a Telecommunications Ordinance. However, he felt that telecommunications facilities also served the needs of the City, businesses, hospitals, schools, etc. Therefore, he felt that staff should look into what the City is attempting to accomplish by establishing this ordinance, sach as encouraging the development of facilities and services which would benefit the community, promoting economic development, and generating revenue. Councilman Campbell stated that, in reviewing this Ordinance, all these things should be considered. Interim Manager Pittis pointed out that the seven points contained in Attorney Knutson's memo describe the basic provisions of the Ordinance. He explained that this Ordinance basically regulates the use of the public rights-of-way, which is a charge of the City Council. Discussion ensued, and staff.responded to questions and provided clarification. No action was taken; this item will be brought back to the July meeting. B. $CADA Quotes Deputy Director Titus reviewed the information contained in the packet and provided a brief history of this issue. S & B Inc. has provided services at the wastewater treatment plant, and staff.has been satisfied with the work performed. Deputy Director Titus responded to questions and provided clarification. At Councilman Doyle's request, he explained the functions of the SCADA system and how it would be of benefit to the City. Deputy Director Titus explained that the existing control system for the water utility is antiquated, and repairs are difficult as parts are no longer readily available. Staff felt it was in the best interest of the City to standardize the manufacturer and product line, and SCADA has been used in other areas of the City. Hopefully, all systems will be transferred to SCADA within the next five years. If approved by the Council, the system can be up and running in about three months. Following further discussion, Joe Michalczik moved to recommend the City Council authorize the Mayor to enter into an agreement with S & B, Inc. for a water SCADA system at a cost not to exceed $100,000. Councilman Doyle seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. 114 Utility Advisory Committee June 7, 1999 Weatherization Loan Report Interim Manager Pittis reminded the Committee that staff had been asked for an update on the Weatherization Loan Programs. He then deferred to Scott McLain, Power Manager, and Finance Director Ziomkowski. Scott McLain explained that Zero-Interest Loans were available fi.om 1980 to 1983. The money was provided by the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), and loan payments are returned to them. Five of these loans remain to be paid. Money for the Weatherization Loans came fi.om the City Light reserves. The loans are administered by the Finance Department, along with the Conservation Loans, which are funded with flex-fund monies. In 1998, a loan program was begun which is administered by First Federal Savings and L6an and backed by the City. Director Ziomkowski reviewed the Weathedzation and Conservation Loans. The last Weatherization Loan will be paid off'in the year 2000. This was a successful program, as almost 1,200 loans were given. A successful audit was recently conducted on both Weatherization and Conservation Loans. Director Ziomkowski reminded the Committee that flex fund money can be reused when repaid for future Conservation Loans. Interim Manager Pittis stated that under deregulation the BPA could possibly ask the City to pay 3% of electric revenues for future conservation programs. Discussion ensued and staff responded to questions and provided clarification. Councilman Williams encouraged the City to include a "due on sale" clause to furore loans. Mr. McLain will look into this. No action was necessary. E. Water Strategy Interim Manager Pittis reminded the Committee that the Draft Water Supply Strategy Report from CH2M Hill had been discussed at the last meeting. He asked if the Committee had any further thoughts, comments, or changes to make regarding the report. Discussion followed regarding the industrial pipeline. No changes to the report were requested. A final draft of the Report will be brought back to a future meeting. F. Discussion of Fiber Presentation Deputy Director Titus reviewed the information contained in the packet. He noted that the May 26, 1999, presentation by R. W. Beck had run over time; therefore, a review of the action plan had not taken place. He noted that other utilities and municipalities have pursued, to some degree, either fiber optics or telecommunications options. Based on feedback received following the meeting with R. W. Beck, stuff'felt it was time to move toward having a feasibility study completed to determine the desirability of the City going into the telecommunications business. Staff is seeking direction from the UAC and the City Council in this regard. Joe Michalczik noted that the PUD has been speaking to potential customers and asked Deputy Dkector Titus for comment. Deputy Director Titus stated the PUD Commissioners had authorized proceeding with investigating telecommunications. PUD staff had spoken to the hospital, park service, school district and some of the larger potential users in the community to see if there was any interest in this service or tying into infrastructure once it was in place and what they would be willing 3 115 Utility Advisory Committee June 7, 1999 to pay for the service. The PUD will then tailor its approach to telecommunications based on information received. Discussion ensued, and Deputy Director Titus provided additional clarification. Tim Smith, Economic Development Director, felt that business growth in Port Angeles and across the peninsula needed this technology and infi-astructure. The City can wait and assume the PUD or U. S. West will provide the service, or the City can do its part to provide a backbone within its distribution area. The City should work with the PUD and U.S. West in order to help provide the necessary infrastructure. Mr. Smith felt this was an oppommity that can't miss, and City Light has the capabilities of studying the issue and helping to get it implemented. Joe Michalczik asked what an RFP might include, and Deputy Director Titus responded. Following further discussion and explanation, Councilman Williams moved to recommend to the City Council that they go on record as supporting the concept of the City entering into the telecommunications field and authorizing staff to devote the resources necessary to follow the action plan as attached to the memo, up to and including issuing an RFP for a feasibility study. Bill Myers seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. VII. Next Meeting: The next meeting will be July 12, 1999, at 3:00 p.m. VIII. Adjournment: The meeting adjourned at 5:05 p.m. Orville Campbell, Chairman Carol A. Hagar, Deputy City Clerk 116
