Thank you community for taking the time to listen to these definitions. Let's take the time now to
directly confront these problems head on as full community. The community of the world is
experiencing an epidemic of poverty and homelessness. These issues have had a lot of thought and
consideration and action is being taken in some cities nationwide but not everywhere. The issues for
the main problem at hand is finding a clear solution that will supplement the programs that are already
working so that we can address the immediate need of the homeless and living in poverty.
Let's take the time to think about how these people differentiate from anyone else. Do these people
differ by having less than 206 bones naturally, 270 bones at birth that fuse together? Do they have a
different amount of muscles than 650 that are named in the human body? Do their newborns have one
cup of blood? Do their adult men share the same 12 pints of blood as other men? Finally do the women
have the same 9 pints of blood as every other woman?Are we all born equal the same size and grow at
the same pace? These questions are rhetorical, we all know the answers to them just as much as we
know the answer to the question "Do all people have the same opportunities in life." For those of you
that think so you are wrong. People are not given the same opportunities nor do they have access to
the same education or job markets.
The world has been in a haphazard state of disregard on how to approach the problem of homelessness
and poverty. We have been providing food but no real adequate shelter. In order to have a functional
system we have to put our caste system aside and work as whole to provide basic shelter to those in
need. Not all people have the same access to finances and don't have the skills nor abilities to provide
the necessary means to create a home. It is important for the survival or all mankind to have their
essential needs taken care of.
Cities everywhere have been creating laws that give the homeless and those experience poverty no
place to go. These laws are shameful, disgraceful and unacceptable,cruel and selfish.They force people
who are simply trying to find a place to live breaking laws by trespassing. It's important that the laws
need to be changed in order to create common areas of the towns that can be used for those that need
it most for their survival.To combat the real problem, we have to take action rather than discriminate
due to taboos. Tupac gave us some good examples in his song changes :" I got love for my brother, but
we can never go nowhere Unless we share with each other We gotta start makin' changes Learn to see
me as a brother instead of two distant strangers.
We expect the homeless and those experiencing poverty to simply have faith that the housing crisis will
be resolved and all they have to do is wait. These same people are discriminated against based on
social caste. Many have lost their homes due to issues that may be no fault of their own but now they
are in a position to scramble to find a solution for a basic human need. This causes trauma to people
that experience it. They end up having their survival at risk. Dissociation occurs followed by Physical
dissociation and emotional pain. They experience hardship, suffering, physical pain, hate, discrimination
and abuse from others in our common society. There's no difference of any physical reason that they
should be treated any differently as other. Mark Wills song Don't Laugh at Me : "Don't laugh at me,
don't call me names Don't get your pleasure from my pain 'Cause in God's eyes we're all the same"
Another prime example can be found in The Black Eyed song "where is the love" : "Madness is what you
demonstrate And that's exactly how anger works and operates Man,you gotta have love just to set it
straight Take control of your mind and meditate Let your soul gravitate to the love" "So I could ask
myself really what is goin'wrong In this world that we livin' in people keep on givin' in Makin' wrong
decisions, only visions of them dividends Not respectin' each other, deny thy brother"John Lennon also
made a song decades ago called "Imagine" he got shot and killed over it.The lyrics he shared could be a
good example for all of us; "Imagine all the people Livin' life in peace You,You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will be as one Imagine no
possessions I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger A brotherhood of man Imagine all the
people Sharing all the world You,You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday
you'll join us And the world will live as one" Let's take the time to listen to these successful artists trying
to give us a solution that we haven't been truly taking action to create.
We can also use excepts from the Holy Bible to give us guidance of what we could and should be doing
to provide for the well-being of others this book has been around far longer than any of us have been
alive and has been the basis for many society rules and laws:
Ephesians 4:2 "Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each
others faults because of your love."
Ephesians 4:32 "Be kind and compassionate to one another,forgiving each other,Just as in Christ god
forgave you."
Hebrews: 13:16 "And don't forget to do good and share with those in need. These are the sacrifices that
please god."
Hosea 6:6 "I want you to show love not sacrifices, I want you to know me more than I want burnt
offerings."
Colossians 3:14 "And over all these virtues put on love which binds them all together in perfect unity."
John 13:34"A new commandment I give you: Love one another.As I have loved you, so you must love
one another.
These scriptures can be used to guide us. But the truth of the matter is that we can look at the best of
examples from our childhood. When all attended school was any child forced to stay outside? Did any
child go hungry during snack time or lunch? Did any child get removed from class or treated any
differently because his parents were rich or poor? We know that all the answers to these questions are
a no. Let's start treating people like we started to when we were kids. Sure we've grown up, but the
same values that we teach our children need to be reapplied to society and the social hate needs to stop
for those that are homeless and those experiencing poverty. Let work as a society to solve the solution
that is sitting right in front of us. If these people were your children would you be treating them the
same way? If it were your brother, sister, mother or father would you just watch? Let's take some
action as a society and make shelter a priority rather than funding other options that have not been
efficient to solve the problem.
We treat those in disaster situations exactly the same until they can get adequate housing. Why not
provide the same for residents of all our towns and cities world-wide? Please accept the business plan
proposal set before you and spread this plan all over the counties, states, nation and the rest of the
world. Allow changes to be made and allocations of land, basic resources and transitional housing be
available to all.
Business proposal for providing support for no barrier shelter to
help all society.
Additional homeless shelter needed to better support for
business.
Our city has no other solution for homeless that have been
forced to vacate Serenity House for any reason.
Secondary shelter is required to allow those with drug
addictions as well as people with no place to go to have basic
shelter.
New facility would be providing support to individuals the
ability be able to offer transition from homeless drug addition
to transitional housing towards drug-free rehabilitation for
those at their own pace.
Goals:
• Allocate section of city property or obtain property from
private party willing to provide space to house city project;
Parks, Parking Lots, Public Domain, Private Property
(preferred)
• Canopy shelters to provide shelter from rain and cold.
• Portable toilets to property for people to be able to use
the bathroom.
• Trash services to prevent litter within and outside of
property.
• Gas stoves with Propane to provide clients a way to cook
meals.
• Portable Propane heaters to provide warmth within
canopy tents.
• Pallets or Swimming Noodles to provide support for
individuals to be able to be off the ground.
• Creation of moveable substructures patrons have the
ability to move.
Funding to be obtained through grant writing, public
fundraising with city permit for donations. City partnerships
willing to help the project become reality.
Staffing to be provided by volunteers that provide
management, trash control, customer service and security.
Paid positions upon funding allocations from fundraising and
other contributions.
Additional funding possible through volunteer phone call center
for donations within the city, county, and state.
As able start creating substructures that can be moved for the
patrons as they acquire property or find a different place to go.
For those that move or find other transitional housing. Units
could be used for new patrons.
Timeline 1-2 Months to provide shelter from rain and cold.
Reason for Decision: All humans require five things in order to
stay alive. Air, food, water, human contact, and shelter. The
city has talked about the problem but no solution has been
passed. This solution would give immediate help to clean the
city and provide additional shelter to those whom have no
other options.

Subject: Prosecuting Attorney and Law Enforcement Radio Use Memorandum of Understanding
Background / Analysis: The WA Interlocal Cooperation Act, Chapter 39.34 RCW, allows public
agencies to enter into cooperative agreements and memorandums of understanding to jointly perform any
governmental services, activity, or undertaking that is authorized by law. The Prosecuting Attorney in
Clallam County is the ex officio Coroner and the office has personnel who are designated as Deputy
Coroners. These individuals respond to death scenes and participate in investigations. At times they need
to communicate with PenCom or with other law enforcement personnel. UHF radio and repeater use
offers these individuals situational awareness and an effective means of communication.
Recommendation: Authorize the City Manager to sign the MOU with the Clallam County
Prosecuting Attorney and the Clallam County Sheriff and make minor modifications as necessary.
Attachments:
1) Memorandum of Understanding
Summary: This memorandum of understanding (MOU) allows representatives of the Prosecuting
Attorney’s Office, specifically Deputy Coroners to use the area law enforcement radio frequencies. The
radio frequencies and radio repeaters used by local law enforcement in Clallam County are licensed to
the Port Angeles Police Department, the Clallam County Sheriff and the Sequim Police Department.
Per agreement they are used and managed as a collective. All 3 agencies have authorized personnel
from the Prosecuting Attorney’s Office to utilize the area law enforcement radio frequencies during
operations.
Funding: The use of the radio frequencies and radio repeaters by the Prosecuting Attorney does not
have any financial implications for the City.
Recommendation: Authorize the City Manager to sign the memorandum of understanding with the
Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney and the Clallam County Sheriff and make minor modifications as
necessary.

Memorandum of Understanding
Use of Radio Communications Systems in Clallam County
An agreement between
City of Port Angeles (Police-PenCom 9-1-1)
And
Clallam County Prosecutor’s Office (Coroner Division)
And
Clallam County Sheriff’s Office
This Memorandum of Understanding authorizes the Clallam County Prosecutor’s Office to use specified Pencom radio
frequencies by Clallam County Coroners operating in Clallam County.
Radio frequencies are intended to provide the coroner division with a means to request emergency assistance from, and
coordinate response with Clallam County Law Enforcement Agencies/Pencom when no other services are available. Radio
discipline and adherence to procedures are mandatory to ensure effective communication for all users.
Coroners will adhere to the following guidelines when using radios.
• Use of repeater frequency for routine radio traffic is not permitted.
• Allowable safety-related traffic is identified as follows:
• Emergency Assistance Requests.
• Mutual Aid or Joint Operations communications.
• Clallam County Law Enforcement agencies are responding with the Coroner’s Office.
The Clallam County Prosecutor, or his/her designee, will provide Pencom with a list of personnel for review and approval as
authorized system users. The Prosecutor may submit personnel lists annually to confirm users or submit updated lists as
needed to accommodate personnel changes.
Coroner division agents will refrain from using the Pencom radio system without specific approvals, except where loss of life
or injury to self or others is imminent.
Coroner division agents shall direct all initial communications and requests for officer assistance through radio dispatch
(Pencom).
LEDRN (Law Enforcement Dispatch Radio Network) radio repeaters may be used for routine car/car or tactical
communications where coroner division agents participate in joint operations with Clallam County officers or task
forces/teams.
Coroner Division agents will immediately relinquish or refrain from using channels when/if directed by Pencom due to
emergencies and if not directly involved.
Coroner division agents will be fully responsible for all of their radio equipment, including programming, maintenance,
repair, upgrades, and compliance with FCC regulations, including licensing of frequencies.
LEDRN frequencies authorized for use by coroner division agents are listed on Attachment “A” of this agreement. Contents
of Attachment “A” are considered highly confidential and restricted, and shall not be made publicly available without written
consent from Pencom.
October 1, 2024 E - 22
The LEDRN/Pencom reserves the right to withdraw this authorization, deny usage to identified user(s), or modify/amend
procedures and requirements to maintain and preserve communications services, at any time and with or without cause.
The effective date of this agreement is the date signed by both parties, with no end date specified, a review and confirmatio n
of continuance will be completed at 3 years intervals. Except in case of unusual circumstances, either party may terminate
with a minimum of thirty (30) days’ notice.
Signature by duly authorized representatives below signifies this agreement will be in effect when fully executed, and remain
in effect in perpetuity, unless otherwise revoked/withdrawn by either party.

Subject: Crisis Response Team and Peninsula SWAT Interlocal Agreement
Background / Analysis: The WA Interlocal Cooperation Act, Chapter 39.34 RCW, allows public
agencies to enter into cooperative agreements to jointly perform any governmental services, activity, or
undertaking that is authorized by law. Through our longstanding participation with OPNET and our ten
plus year inter-agency MIRT agreement, the Port Angeles Police Department has been jointly performing
legally authorized activities that include warrant service and fugitive apprehension. Some of these
activities, absent specialized training and equipment, would involve an unacceptable risk to both law
enforcement and community members.
PAPD has three personnel who regularly train and respond with the CRT. CRT was established by the
Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office and their mix of specially trained personnel and equipment are often the
only available resources during high-risk incidents. The Washington State Patrol SWAT resource has a
limited response capability when it comes to the full range of incidents that occur on the Peninsula. During
the recent armed and barricade suspect arrest in Port Angeles, the Jefferson County CRT was the tactical
team that responded. Three of the team members were PAPD members who have met the requisite team
qualifications and possess specialized training and equipment. This incident involved an armed subject
who repeatedly discharged a shotgun. CRT working in tandem with PAPD Incident Command and area
law enforcement resolved this incident without any injury or use of deadly force.
The Washington Legislature has mandated that law enforcement team up and slow down when dealing
with incidents involving armed and dangerous subjects. This mandate requires that law enforcement
operate in a deliberate and organized manner. This is best done with an interagency team that is available
and is trained and equipped to industry standard. CRT (or now Peninsula SWAT) has met these standards
Summary: This proposed interlocal agreement better allows members of the Port Angeles Police
Department (PAPD), the Clallam and Jefferson County Sheriff’s Offices, the Jamestown Tribe, the
Port Townsend Police Department and the Sequim Police to continue to work together and provide
mutual aid and assistance during high risk incidents that require specialized training and equipment.
Operations as described are currently and generally covered in our existing Olympic Peninsula
Narcotics Enforcement Team (OPNET) and our Major Incident Response Team (MIRT) agreements.
The proposed agreement adopts best practices and provides specifics as to expectations, policy and
procedure during high risk and tactical operations. The current collective effort is named the Crisis
Response Team (CRT). The proposed agreement renames the effort Peninsula SWAT.
Funding: This agreement does not create any new fiscal obligations. Agencies working under
OPNET or MIRT are expected to pay for the costs associated with their assigned personnel.
Recommendation: 1) Authorize the City Manager to sign the Peninsula SWAT Interlocal
Agreement with the listed agencies and make minor modifications, as necessary.
.
October 1, 2024 E - 24
as set forth by the National Tactical Officers Association. These standards are identified in the proposed
interlocal agreement.
The governance for Peninsula SWAT will be the same as that for OPNET. That is, the agency heads of
the participating agencies will serve as a governance board as is the case with OPNET. The proposed
Peninsula SWAT interlocal agreement is complimentary to and supports the existing OPNET and MIRT
agreements
Funding: This agreement does not impose any new funding obligations on the part of the participating
agencies.

Subject: Wastewater Treatment Plant Digester Gas Blower Purchase
Background / Analysis: The WWTP Digester Gas Mixing Blower is over 30 years old. It is
necessary to replace this equipment as it has reached the end of its useful service life. For comparison
purposes, the cost of repair is in the amount of $18,505.14, including tax. The WWTP Digester Gas
Mixing System is a critical component to ensure proper Digester operation. The blowers are the most
significant components of the mix system and are needed to meet health, safety, and environmental
compliance.
The failing equipment will be replaced by a new Roots 406 RAM GJ digester gas blower.
Funding Overview: Funding for this purchase in the amount of $25,600.23, including tax, is available
in the 2024 Wastewater Utility Equipment Budget (403-7480-594-6410) which includes sufficient
resources to fund the cost.

Subject: Material Purchase: Electric Meters
Background / Analysis:
This procurement is necessary to replenish the Light Operations Division’s stock inventory of 120V
single phase network (residential multifamily) and 240V single phase (residential single family) electric
meters. These meters will be used to replace aged and failing meters and be held in inventory for future
single and multifamily residential developments. At present, meter orders have an expected lead time
approaching six (6) months or more from the time of order to delivery.
As a participating member of the cooperative purchasing group, the City is able to piggyback on contracts
awarded by SourceWell to save time on delivery and to obtain better pricing and contract terms.
Pricing from the SourceWell Cooperative Purchasing contract is summarized below:
Vendor Description Qty Unit Price Total Price
WESCO Distribution, Inc. 120V Electric Meters 120 $303.85 $36,462.00
240V Electric Meters 120 $120.51 $14,461.20
TAX $4,532.16
TOTAL $55,455.16
Funding Overview: Funds in the amount of $55,455.16, including tax, are available in the 2024
Electric Utility operations budget as material inventory (401-7180-533-3402).
Attachments: None.
Summary: The purpose of this memo is to obtain City Council approval for the purchase of 240
electrical distribution system revenue meters for the Light Operations Division. Through the City’s
membership with SourceWell purchasing cooperative, a participating distributor of general electrical
supplies, WESCO/Anixter of Portland, OR was selected from the cooperative vendor list, Contract No.
091422-WES for electrical revenue meters purchase.
Funding: Funds in the amount of $55,455.16, including tax, are available in the 2024 Electric Utility
operations budget as material inventory (401-7180-533-3402).
Recommendation: 1) Award a contract with WESCO/Anixter of Portland, OR for the purchase of
240 electrical revenue meters in the amount of $55,455.16, including tax, and 2) authorize the City
Manager to execute all contract-related documents, to administer the contract, and to make minor

From: Scott Curtin, Director of Public Works & Utilities
Subject: Pilot Program - End of Distribution Line Voltage Meters
Background / Analysis:
The City currently monitors the voltage output at the seven (7) substations that supply electricity to all
customers serviced by the City electric utility. Load Tap Changers (LTC) are installed at each substation
to monitor the supplied voltage provided to customers. The voltage supplied to our substations by
Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) can fluctuate and the LTCs adjust accordingly to provide
continued service to customers.
City staff is trying to evaluate, forecast and determine the voltage drop that occurs as you travel away
from each substation to improve service. Currently, the only way to determine the voltage at the end of a
distribution line is to send City staff to the end of the line with a voltmeter which is extremely time
consuming and manpower intensive.
This pilot program will add meters at key areas to enable City staff to supply quality voltage at the end of
distribution lines and adjust voltage supply when necessary. The system will also alert City staff more
effectively to customer outages.
On September 10, 2024, the Utility Advisory Committee provided a unanimous favorable
recommendation to City Council for approval of an end of distribution line voltage metering pilot
program to better serve the residents and customers of the City of Port Angeles Electrical Utility also
recognizing the cost containment savings that this program will produce.
Funding Overview: No additional funding will be required to deliver this program outside of already
appropriated budget funds.
Attachments: None.
Summary: The purpose of this memo is to obtain City Council approval to institute an end of
distribution line voltage meter reading pilot program. This program aims to provide an improved
monitoring and forecasting system to ensure residents and customers are supplied with satisfactory safe
levels of voltage from the City electric utility and to better project voltage needs on each of our feeder
lines within the electrical distribution system.
Funding: No additional funding will be required to deliver this program outside of already appropriated
budget funds.
Recommendation: 1) Approve an end of distribution line voltage pilot metering program to better
serve and reduce costs to the residents and customers of the City of Port Angeles Electrical Utility, and 2)
authorize the Director of Public Works and Utilities to implement and administer the program.

allows the City and DOR BLS to begin formal discussions about next steps.
If the contract is approved by the Council, City staff anticipate bringing a draft update to Title 5 and
associated documents to a November or December meeting of the Council.

locking drawer, or safe, to which only authorized persons have access.
4. Confidential Information Segregation
DOR Confidential Information received under this Agreement must be segregated or otherwise
distinguishable from non-DOR data. This is to ensure that when no longer needed by the
Contractor, all DOR Confidential Information can be identified for return or destruction. It also
aids in determining whether DOR Confidential Information has or may have been compromised
in the event of a security Breach.
a. The DOR Confidential Information must be kept in one of the following ways:
i. on media (e.g. hard disk, optical disc, tape, etc.) which will contain only DOR Data;
or
ii. in a logical container on electronic media, such as a partition or folder dedicated to
DOR’s Data; or
iii. in a database that will contain only DOR Data; or

Date: October 1, 2024
To: City Council
From: Nathan A. West, City Manager
Subject: Stage IV Water Shortage Declaration
Background / Analysis: The City’s potable water source is groundwater under the direct influence of
the Elwha River. The water is pumped to the City from a Ranney Collector Well located next to the river.
Elwha river flows are anticipated to drop below the critical level of 250 cfs.
For this reason, it is recommended that the City Council take action authorizing the City Manager the
authority to declare a Stage IV Water Shortage – Mandatory Outdoor Restrictions and Indoor
Conservation. Stage 4 of the City’s Water Shortage Response Plan is a coordinated effort among City
Departments to respond to water supply problems. The Director of Public Works and Utilities will take
the lead in declaring the restrictions needed to protect the available supply for in-stream and out-of-stream
users and proceed with the necessary public notifications as detailed in the Plan.
The City’s Water Shortage Response Ordinance as set out in PAMC 13.46 has five stages which are
summarized below:
Stage Water Shortage Condition Action Declaration by
I Anticipated Internal Preparations City Manager
II Serious Voluntary Conservation City Manager
III Critical Limited Outdoor Restrictions City Council
IV Emergency Mandatory Outdoor Restrictions and
Indoor Conservation City Council
Summary: On September 9, 2024, the City Manager implemented a Stage III Declaration for the City’s
Water Shortage Response Plan, which includes voluntary water use restrictions.
Flows on the Elwha River, our primary source of drinking water, will or have decreased. The Elwha
River stream flow recently reached a flow stage that is critical. Recent rains did little to cure low water
flows and City staff does not expect a substantial increase in flow until seasonal rains return later this fall.
Therefore, the City Manager is seeking authority from the City Council to implement Stage IV of the
City’s Water Shortage Response plan should conditions and Elwha River flows remain consistently low.
Funding: N/A
Recommendation: 1) Grant to the City Manager the authority to Declare a Stage IV Water Shortage
and, 2) authorize the Public Works and Utilities Department to implement the limited outdoor restrictions
on the use of water as detailed in its Water Shortage Response Plan.
October 1, 2024 E - 80
V Regional Disaster or Infrastructure
Failure Water Rationing City Council
Port Angeles Municipal Code 13.46 states that under a Stage IV Water Shortage,
“The City Council may declare a Stage IV water emergency, when a water shortage exists such that
maximum flow reduction is immediately required, water available to the City is insufficient to permit any
irrigation, watering, or sprinkling, and all available water is needed solely for human consumption,
sanitation, and fire protection.
The City Council may prohibit all non-essential uses of water, including but not limited to all vehicle
washing, all lawn watering, and all of the uses that may be prohibited for a Stage IV water emergency.”
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to declare a Stage IV Water
Shortage, prohibit lawn watering and car washing, and authorize the Public Works and Utilities
Department to prohibit the previously listed uses of water until such time as the City Council declares an
end to a Stage IV Water Shortage.

From: Nathan West, City Manager
Sarina Carrizosa, Finance Director
Subject: Proposed Adjustments to the 2025 Utility Rates
Background / Analysis:
The Water and Wastewater utility rates will expire on December 31, 2024. In 2019, the Utility Advisory
Committee (UAC), Council and City staff reviewed, and City Council ultimately approved the Cost of
Service (COSA) methodologies for each utility with the intent that these methodologies would be used for
setting future utility rates. Principles used when creating the COSA methodologies included the
following: rates must be cost based, meet revenue requirements of the utility, be easy to administer, be
just, reasonable, fair and equitable and be affordable. The rates that are being presented utilize the
principles and methodologies to determine true and fair costs associated with each utility and the
associated customer classes.
Rising costs caused by inflation and personnel bargaining agreements as well as increased capacity needs
have caused the rates in these utilities to increase. City staff remains committed to keeping rates as low as
possible and has heavily scrutinized the budget to ensure only essential funds to continue safe and
efficient practices are included in the COSA. The attachments to this memo detail the proposed changes
for each customer class and include an example of customer usage ranges and the effect these proposed
utility rate changes would have on each.
Proposed rates in the Water and Wastewater utilities are for two years, ending December 31, 2026. Rates
have been averaged over their respective two-year cycle for ease of administration and predictability to
City customers.
Summary: In 2019, the Utility Advisory Committee, Council and City staff reviewed and City Council
ultimately approved Cost of Service Methodologies for each utility with the intent that these
methodologies would be used for setting future utility rates. Presented in this memo are the proposed
2025-26 rates for the Water and Wastewater utilities for the Utility Advisory Committee’s (UAC)
consideration. These rates were calculated using the approved Cost of Service (COSA) methodologies.
Funding: The approval of the proposal presented will not increase expenditures, rather rate changes will
generate the required revenue to meet budgeted expenditures and fund debt requirements. Rate changes
differ by utility and are explained further in this memo and the corresponding attachments.
Recommendation: Staff recommends the City Council:
1)Open the Public Hearing on the 2025-2026 Water and Wastewater Utility rates,
2)Close the Public Hearing
3)Pass the Resolution amending the Utility Fee Schedule to include the adjustments to the
2025-2026 Water and Wastewater rates.

Subject: Municipal Code Update (MCA) 24-88 to the Port Angeles Municipal Code (PAMC) Title
17 and Title 2 for Minor Deviation Permits and Conditional Use Permits
Background / Analysis:
Over the last eight years, the City of Port Angeles has moved towards more flexibility in its zoning
standards. The Planning Commission has assisted in providing multiple different pathways for a project
proposal to deviate from specific standards. These deviations are typically conditionally allowed as long
as the applicant can demonstrate that the potential impacts to surrounding properties, businesses, and
residents can or have been mitigated and that the health, safety, and welfare of the community are
appropriately maintained.
One area that has not been reviewed is how this flexibility continues to be difficult for allowed uses and
facilities that are unique enough that a pathway to reasonably deviate from zoning standards does not
exist. Whether the issue is the specific zone, the type of structure, or the unique location, the current
zoning code does not provide an efficient or reasonable means to provide flexibility for what could be
considered better development practices.
City staff’s recommendation for this permitting issue is an amendment to the minor deviation code. The
permitting process can be used for proposals that are “allowed uses” in the zone they are located in, but
because of special circumstances or hardships, the proposal could benefit from a change in the zoning
standards. The deviation is currently set at a maximum of ten percent. A ten percent deviation from any
zoning standard is nearly imperceptible. Allowing 35-foot-tall building an additional 3.5 feet in height or
1.5 feet closer from a 15-foot setback, in nearly all circumstances, will not negatively affect any
surrounding land uses or the health, safety, and welfare of the community.
Summary: MCA 24-88 outlines changes to the Port Angeles Municipal Code (PAMC) Chapters 2.18,
17.40, 17.94, and 17.96 related to an increase in height standards from 35 to 40 feet in the Public
Buildings and Parks (PBP) zone; movement of conditional use minor deviation standards from Chapter
17.94 to Chapter 17.96; and an administrative minor deviation increase from 10 to 20 percent and
updating Hearing Examiner decisions on minor deviation applications from 21 to 30 percent. On
September 11, 2024, the Planning Commission unanimously recommended to the City Council to adopt
the code amendments that are fully reflected in the draft ordinance presented.
Funding: N/A.
Recommendation: 1.) Conduct the first reading of the ordinance amending Chapters 2.18, 17.40,
17.94, and 17.96 PAMC; 2.) open the public hearing; 3.) close the public hearing, 4.) waive the second
reading of the ordinance; 5.) adopt the ordinance; and 6.) authorize the City Clerk and Code Reviser to
make grammatical and formatting revisions to ensure internal consistency.
October 1, 2024 F - 16
The issue lies in a use already listed as “allowed” in a specific zone. If the use was listed as “conditional ,”
the conditional use process could be used to deviate from any zoning standards with conditions in place to
ensure compatibility with surrounding uses. In certain zones, some uses (multifamily structures, mixed-
use commercial structures, and public facilities) are “allowed uses” that also might not meet the necessary
criteria for an incentive to build up, not out. City staff have approached this proposal by amending the
code in the following two distinct ways:
Goal 1: Provide unique allowed uses the ability to deviate from zoning standards. Not all uses have the
opportunity or flexibility to reasonably deviate from zoning standards. Some flexibility could benefit
other issues such as stormwater, provision of open space, building frontage along a streetscape, or the
allowance of a structure in a position that matches historic practices along a street or alley that do not
currently conform to current zoning standards.
Goal 2: Provide proper guidance on permitting procedures for conditional, unclassified, and minor
deviation proposals. The current zoning code does not adequately provide procedural guidance for
community members or City staff. This amendment will consolidate processes and provide better
locations for standards and procedures of certain permit applications.
Planning Commission Recommendation:
At the special Planning Commission Meeting on September 11, 2024, staff provided draft amendments to
Chapters 17.94 and 17.96 PAMC. After a robust discussion, the Planning Commission recommended to:
1. Change Chapter 17.40 Public Buildings and Parks (PBP) height requirement from 35 to 40 feet.
2. Amend Chapter 17.96.065 in the following manner:
a. Reduce 17.96.065.B to 20 percent.
b. Remove Section 17.96.065.C.
c. Amend 17.96.080.D to 17.96.065.C and amend the threshold for review from 21-30
percent.
The Planning Commission made a final unanimously approved motion “To forward to council the
amended section 17.96.065 for their consideration preserving the planning commission's authority to
review the remainder of this code at a future date, and to have City Council review the whole chapter
17.94 and 17.96 at a later date.”
The above revisions also necessitate minor adjustments to the Hearing Examiner's responsibilities in
Chapter 2.18 to implement MCA 24-88.

RE: Conditional Use and Minor Deviation Permit Standards
I.BACKGROUND
Over the last eight years the City of Port Angeles has moved towards more flexibility in its zoning
standards. The Planning Commission has assisted in providing multiple different pathways for a project
proposal to deviate from certain standards. These deviations are typically conditionally allowed as long as
the proposer can demonstrate that the potential impacts to surrounding properties, businesses, and
residents can or have been mitigated, and the health, safety, and welfare of the community is
appropriately maintained.
One area that has not been reviewed is how this flexibility continues to be difficult for allowed uses and
facilities that are unique enough that a pathway to reasonably deviate from zoning standards does not
exist. Whether the issue is the specific zone, the type of structure, or the unique location, current zoning
code does not provide an efficient or reasonable means to provide flexibility for what could be considered
better development practices.
Staff’s solution to this permitting issue is an amendment to the minor deviation code. The permitting
process can be used for proposals that are “allowed uses” in the zone they are located in, but because of
special circumstances or hardships the proposal could benefit from a change in the zoning standards. The
deviation is current set at a maximum of ten percent. A ten percent deviation from any zoning standard
is nearly imperceptible. Allowing a 35-foot-tall building and additional 3.5 feet in height or 1.5 feet closer
from a 15-foot setback, in nearly all circumstances, will not negatively affect any surrounding land uses or
the health, safety and welfare of the community.
The issue lies in a use already being listed as “allowed” in a specific zone. If the use was listed as
“conditional”, the conditional use process could be used to deviate from any zoning standards with
conditions in place to ensure compatibility with surrounding uses. In certain zones, some uses (multifamily
structures, mixed use commercial structures, and public facilities) are “allowed uses” that also might not
meet the necessary criteria for an incentive to building up or out.
The proposed amendment will provide increasing standards for minor deviations starting with public
noticing for simple reviews up to 20 percent, a neighborhood meeting and increased standards for a
Attachment 2
October 1, 2024 F - 27
request up to 30 percent, and a public hearing for a request no larger than 50 percent.
Upon reviewing methods to ensure efficient and reasonable permitting practices for these unique uses,
staff found that the processes and standards for administrative conditional use permits, conditional use
permits, unclassified use permits, and minor deviations could all be updated to better facilitate proper
development. Codes from cities in Washington State of comparable size, as well as our local neighboring
municipalities were all also evaluated in the code amendment process to ensure a consistent
methodology was used.
To address these permitting standards and processes, staff is proposing amendments that include
redrafting certain sections Chapter 17.94 PAMC to ensure the conditional use, unclassified use, and minor
deviation permitting processes are easier to find and follow for applicants and staff alike.
III. CODIFICATION GOALS AND RESULTS
Staff has approached this proposal by amending the code in the following two distinct ways:
Goal 1: Provide unique allowed uses the ability to deviate from zoning standards
Not all uses have the opportunity or flexibility to reasonably deviate from zoning standards. Some
flexibility could benefit other issues such as stormwater, provision of open space, building frontage along
a streetscape, or the allowance of a structure in a position that matches historic practices along a street
or alley that do not currently conform to current zoning standards.
Goal 2: Provide proper guidance on permitting procedures for conditional, unclassified, and minor
deviation proposals.
Current zoning code does not adequately provide procedural guidance for community members or staff.
This amendment will consolidate like processes and provide better locations for standards and procedures
of certain permit applications.
V. OTHER COUNTY AND STATE REGULATIONS
In staff’s research there were three specific instances from the comparable cities whose code was
reviewed that supported the proposed amendments to Sections 17.94 and 17.96 PAMC:
Port Townsend – Minor Variances: Chapter 17.86.055 PTMC
Allows for a zoning variance necessary because of special circumstances that is minor and provides criteria
that are related to existing surrounding character, density, and impact to existing uses.
Camas – Minor Variance Chapter 18.45.030 CMC
Allows for a 10 modification to a numerical development standard. The approval of this variance depends
on typical variance standards and is based upon “unusual circumstances”.
Anacortes – Variances Chapter 19.38 AMC
October 1, 2024 F - 28
Provides different numerical thresholds for the granting of a variance permit based upon the percentage
of deviation that is being requested.
VI. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Planning Commission 1) ask staff any questions they may have about the proposed
amendment, 2) discuss any changes or alternatives to the staff provided code amendment with applicable
motions to approve those recommended changes, and 3) make a final motion to recommend the code
amendment with any changes approved by the Planning Commission.

hardship upon the applicant.
3. The minor deviation will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to property or
improvements in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is located.
4. The minor deviation is not greater than ten percent of the requirement being deviated from.

17.94.190 Exceptions, variances and adjustments to stormwater development minimum
requirements.
A. Exceptions/variances (exceptions) to the stormwater development minimum requirements may be granted
by the Director of Community and Economic Development following legal public notice of an application for
an exception or variance, legal public notice of the Director's decision on the application, and written
findings of fact that documents the Director's determination to grant an exception.
The Director may grant an exception to stormwater development minimum requirements if such application
imposes a severe and unexpected economic hardship. To determine whether the application imposes a severe and
unexpected economic hardship on the project applicant, the applicant must provide written documentation
considering the following:
1. The current (pre‐project) use of the site; and
2. How the application of the minimum requirement(s) restricts the proposed use of the site compared to
the restrictions that existed prior to the adoption of the minimum requirements; and
3. The possible remaining uses of the site if the exception were not granted; and
4. The uses of the site that would have been allowed prior to the adoption of the minimum requirements;
and
5. A comparison of the estimated amount and percentage of value loss as a result of the minimum
requirements versus the estimated amount and percentage of value loss as a result of requirements
that existed prior to adoption of the minimum requirements; and
6. The feasibility for the owner to alter the project to apply the minimum requirements.
B. The Director must consider and document with findings of fact the applicant's request. In addition, the
Director must determine and document the exception meets the following criteria: the exception will not
increase risk to the public health and welfare, nor be injurious to other properties in the vicinity and/or
downstream, and to the quality of waters of the state; and the exception is the least possible exception that
could be granted to comply with the intent of the stormwater development minimum requirements.
C. Adjustments to the minimum requirements may be granted by the Director provided that a written finding of
fact is prepared, that addresses the following:
1. The adjustment provides substantially equivalent environmental protection.
2. Based on sound engineering practices, the objectives of safety, function, environmental protection and
facility maintenance, are met.

17.96.030 Rules for interpreting zoning boundaries.
A. When uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of zones as indicated on the Official Zoning Map, the following
rules shall apply:
1. Boundaries shown on the zoning map as approximately following the centerline of streets, alleys,
highways or City limits shall be construed as following such centerlines and City limits.
2. Distances not specifically indicated on the zoning map shall be determined by applying the scale of the
map.
3. Where a zone boundary line parallel, or approximately parallel, to a street divides a lot or property in
single ownership having street frontage in a less restrictive zone, the provisions applicable to the less
restrictive zone may be extended to the entire lot, but in no case for a distance of more than 25 feet.
Where such zone boundary line divides a lot having street frontage only in a more restrictive zone, the
provisions of these regulations covering the more restrictive portion of such lot shall extend to the
entire lot.
4. Where a zone boundary line divides a lot of single ownership and such line is at right angles or
approximately at right angles to the street, highway or place upon which said lot fronts, the provisions
of these regulations applicable in the less restrictively zoned portion of the lot may be extended to the
entire lot or for a distance of 25 feet from such zone boundary line, whichever is the lesser distance.
5. Where a zone boundary line, as indicated on the zoning map, follows the top or bottom of a bluff or
bank, such line shall be at the point that is the average grade of the slope for the bank and top, or
bottom, as determined by the City Engineer.
B. Interpretation on zoning boundaries shall be made consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan goals,
policies and objectives.
(Ord. 3272, 2/16/2007; Ord. 2861 § 1 (part), 3/17/1995; Ord. 2668 § 12 (part), 1/17/1992; Ord. 1709 § 1 (part),
12/22/1970)
17.96.040 Substandard lots, recorded lots.
When a lot has less than the minimum required area or width in any zone, and said lot was of record on the
effective date of these zoning regulations (January 4, 1971), such lot shall be deemed to have complied with the
minimum required lot area or width, in such zone.
A building or structure may be permitted on said lot of record providing it meets all other requirements for such
zone.
(Ord. 3272, 2/16/2007; Ord. 3009 § 2, 2/12/1999; Ord. 2861 § 1 (part), 3/17/1995; Ord. 2668 § 12 (part),

17.96.045 Zoning lot covenants—Applicability.
Zoning lot covenants, as defined in PAMC 17.08.130.C, may only be used to allow a property owner to designate
two or more adjacent lots as a single lot of record, when the existing two or more lots:
A. Have a legal residential structure encroaching onto said lots; or

B. Results in a lot that meets the zoning and subdivision requirements.
A zoning lot covenant is not intended to allow the circumvention of applicable platting regulations and is intended
to allow the consolidation of properties by a property owner for development and use by the owner.
The covenant shall be recorded with the County Auditor's Office and a copy of the recorded covenant shall be
provided to the Department of Community and Economic Development. Once filed, the covenant may only be
removed through compliance with RCW 58.17 and Chapter 16.04 or 16.08.
(Ord. 3577 § 1, 3/21/2017); Ord. 3272, 2/16/2007; Ord. 2863 § 1, 4/14/1995)
17.96.050 Conditional use permit.
A. The Hearing Examiner shall consider applications for conditional use permits of uses as specified in the
applicable chapter of the zoning regulations. The Hearing Examiner may grant said permits that are
consistent and compatible with the purpose of the zone in which the use is located, consistent with the
comprehensive plan, and not contrary to the public use and interest. The Hearing Examiner may refuse to
issue a conditional use permit if the characteristics of the intended use as related to the specific proposed
site are such as would defeat the purpose of these zoning regulations by introducing incompatible,
detrimental or hazardous conditions.
B. In each application the Hearing Examiner may impose whatever restrictions or conditions they consider
essential to protect the public health, safety and welfare, and to prevent depreciation of neighboring
property.
C. Purpose of a conditional use permit: the purpose of a conditional use permit shall be to assure that the
maximum degree of compatibility between uses shall be attained. The purpose of these regulations shall be
maintained with respect to the particular use of the particular site and in consideration of other existing and
potential uses within the general area in which such use is to be located.
D. The Federal Fair Housing Act requires that reasonable accommodations be made in rules policies, practices,
or services, when such accommodations may be necessary to afford disabled people equal opportunity to
use and enjoy a dwelling. The Planning Commission Hearing Examiner is therefore authorized to make
accommodations in the consideration of Conditional Use permits for group homes for disabled persons as
defined in the federal Fair Housing Act, when the Commission determines that such accommodations
reasonably may be necessary in order to comply with such Act.

exercise original jurisdiction in receiving, granting or denying all applications for such variance uses as
provided for in this chapter and shall have the power to place in such permits conditions or limitations
in its judgment required to secure adequate protection to the zone or locality in which such use is to be
permitted. The Hearing Examiner must also find:
a. The variance shall not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitation upon
uses of other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the property on behalf of which the
application was filed is located; and
b. That such variance is necessary, because of special circumstances relating to the size, shape,
topography, location, or surroundings of the subject property, to provide it with use rights and
privileges permitted to other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is
located; and
c. That the granting of such variance shall not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or
injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property

draft of the 2025-2026 Strategic Plan, which included four strategic areas of focus: Community
Resilience, Citywide Resource Optimization, Housing, and Infrastructure Development, Maintenance,
and Connectivity.
In addition to the four areas of focus, the proposed 2025-2026 Strategic Plan contains goals, measures,
and interested groups for each area of focus. On September 3rd, Facilitator Severson participated during
the Council meeting to help support continued discussions. She assisted the Council by taking notes
during their review of the preliminary draft and at the end of the conversation, Council agreed by
consensus to allow Facilitator Severson the opportunity to incorporate Council’s changes and reconsider a
final draft at the next Council meeting.

Ultimately, the Council voted to table the matter until the next meeting. Council agreed to forward
additional comments to Manager West to be included in a final draft to be presented to Council on
October 1st. Tonight, it is City staff’s desire that after discussion and any final edits are made, Council
pass the resolution adopting the 2025-2026 Strategic Plan with incorporated changes. After approval, City
staff will then present a Work Plan with items that clearly reflect implementation of the Strategic Plan
over the next two years.

Ben Braudrick, Planning Supervisor
Subject: Resolution on Lodging Tax Policy and Fund Disbursement Scoring Criteria
Background / Analysis:
On August 1, 2024, the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC) began a discussion to evaluate the
Vision, Goals, and Priorities for Lodging Tax Funding Programs document previously approved by the
City Council in Resolution 08-23 on August 15, 2023. The Lodging Tax Advisory Committee’s 2024
budget process identified the need for more robust procedures and edits to the funding priorities.
On September 26, 2024, the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee completed its comprehensive review and
revision of the Vision, Goals, and Priorities for Lodging Tax Funding Programs document and
recommended its approval to City Council. Changes to Resolution 08-23 include:
• A cap of operation requests of $100,000.
• Allowing all events to request a cap of $10,000 per year per event.
• Adding formal meeting procedures to guide community members and new committee members.
• Adding LTAX RFP procedures that include review, timeline, and public availability of scoring
requirements.
The updated policy will:
• Ensure a balanced approach to funding of lodging tax-eligible expenditures.
• Provide better guidance for Lodging Tax Advisory Committee review of proposals.
• Provide better guidance for applicants.
Enhancements to the Lodging Tax Advisory Fund oversight will result in a more transparent and
sustainable approach to tourism promotion, activities, and investments.
Summary: On August 1 and September 26, 2024, the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC)
reviewed, revised, and recommended approval of changes to Resolution 08-23. The resolution provides
lodging tax funding guidance through disbursement categories; separate funding priorities for non-event
and event proposals; and scoring criteria for non-event and event proposals. A new section of the document
will provide procedures for LTAC regular meeting schedules and the annual budgeting RFP process.
Funding: As proposed, the enhanced policy will ensure a balanced approach to funding of lodging tax
eligible expenditures. The changes will provide better funding guidance through revisions to the priorities
and scoring criteria for both non-events and events. Application scoring specific to the type of request, will
provide a clearer nexus between the priorities and the application process as it relates to the scoring criteria.
Recommendation: 1) Pass the resolution adopting revised policies regarding the application and
budgeting of lodging tax funds, and 2) authorize the City Clerk to make grammatical and formatting
revisions to ensure internal consistency.

Subject: Downtown Tree and Sidewalk Replacement Phase 3 Project TR0918, Change Order No.2
Background / Analysis: Construction of the Downtown Tree and Sidewalk Replacement Phase 3
began in April 2024. The original construction contract work was limited to repair area locations that
experienced the greatest need for repair to match the project scope and the available budget. The project
area included work on Front Street, Oak Street, Laurel Street and Railroad Avenue to eliminate trip
hazards along pedestrian facilities and beautify the downtown area.
After construction began, additional areas were identified as pedestrian trip hazards along Front Street
between Lincoln Street and Peabody and other locations in the Downtown area. Additional funding is
available within the project budget. Change order No. 1 was previously approved which included
additional tree replacement on Laurel Street and Lincoln Street. City staff is requesting the approval of
proposed construction Change Order No. 02 to include the repair of the additional identified areas which
include:
1) Brick adjustment on Laurel, Railroad and Front Streets to fix settled bricks
2) Sidewalk replacement on Front Street between Peabody and Lincoln Street to correct broken
and failed concrete sidewalk and curb.

City’s Comprehensive Plan:
Summary: On February 6, 2024, City Council approved awarding a construction bid to Interwest
Construction Inc. of Burlington, WA for a total construction contract in the amount of $396,890.00. The
work in this project included replacement of street trees, brick pavers, concrete curbs, and concrete
sidewalks at key locations downtown where pedestrian facilities have trip hazards. Additional pedestrian
trip hazards have been identified along Front Street between Peabody Street and Oak Street. A contract
change order is required in the amount of $42,542.00 to include the additional locations where trip
hazards have been identified.
Funding: The approved 2025-2030 TIP included funding for the project in the amount of $500,000.00
for construction of the TR0918 Downtown Tree and Sidewalk Replacement Phase 3 from account 312-
7930-595-6510. Funding in the amount of $42,542.00 is available in the project budget for proposed
construction contract Change Order No. 02.
Recommendation: 1) Approve Construction Change Order No. 02 with Interwest Construction Inc.,
increasing the total contract value by $42,542.00 to a new contract amount of $467,221, and 2) authorize
the City Manager to sign the change order and make minor modifications, as necessary.

BIG BOY POND STUDY
Our consultant, Parametrix has collected data including
background information, survey data, wetland delineation
report, and water level monitoring. Parametrix has used this
information to produce a survey of the ponds and their
respective structures along with a nearly completed
hydrologic and hydraulic (H&H) model.
Staff and Parametrix are working to prepare three
alternatives to present to key stakeholders for review.
Our Contractor, Bruch and Bruch of Port Angeles, installed porous asphalt,
permeable paver walkways, two bioretention cells, trees and other
landscaping elements were planted, cisterns and appurtenances, as well as
associated utility and accessibility improvements at the City’s East Parking
Lot.
This project implemented green stormwater strategies to improve
stormwater runoff quality and quantity. The gravel section beneath the
permeable pavement stores over 45,000 gallons of stormwater and releases
it slowly in the bioretention cell. The cells collectively treat over 500,000
galls each year, removing pollutants before it reaches Peabody Creek and
the Port Angeles harbor.

Subject: 2024 Mid-Year Budget Status Report
This report includes the mid-year financial information for the 2024 Budget, along with comparatives to
previous years’ data. High level information will be included in this report, with specific financial reports
provided as a supplemental attachment for your reference when reviewing this report. Additionally, specific
information on spending and revenue information can also be found on the Open Budget portal of the City’s
website here: http://openbudget.cityofpa.us/#!/year/default, or by clicking on the “Open Data and Public
Records” icon on the City’s website and following the link for “Open Budget.”
Citywide Funds:
Overall, Citywide revenues are largely on track for this point of the year. Tax revenue received has a two -
month lag from the time of collection and therefore it is typical to see the collection around or slightly
below 50% for the mid-year mark. However, as compared to 2023 actuals through the second quarter all
tax revenue is on track with prior years collection. This is a strong indicator that despite the impacts of
inflation that has been seen Citywide, particularly in the last year , Port Angeles remains in a firm
economic position. Additionally, all utility revenue collection is experiencing revenue collection that is
on track to meet budget expectations and fully cover the cost of services and capital projects. State shared
revenues and grant funding continue to be received by the City; however, in many instances grant revenue
collection has been delayed as of the second quarter as this funding corresponds to capital projects that are
seasonal in nature, but are still expected to meet end of year budget projections. However, if grant spending
has not occurred by year-end it will carry into the 2025 Budget if allowed or the spending connected to
this funding will not occur. Overall, there are no concerns with collection of significant revenue sources
citywide and revenue is expected to meet budget projections overall.
Expenses are currently underbudget citywide due to timing for debt payments that will occur in the third
quarter and capital project spending that is seasonal in nature and not fully expended. At mid-year staffing
levels have significantly increased as compared to previous years and are in line with budget expectations
for the year. As always City funds will be closely monitored throughout the remaining year to ensure the
City’s budget remains fiscally sound to meet the needs and expectations of the Port Angeles community.
General Fund:
Revenues – General Fund revenues at mid-year are 6.9% below expectations overall primarily as
a result of grant funding that has not yet been received and lower than expected revenue collection
for permits and fees. Lag time between when tax collection occurs to when it is received by the City
is also a factor when looking at the mid-year revenue collection, because all tax revenue received
as of the end of the second quarter includes four months, rather than six. However, when comparing
the month-by-month revenue budget to the actual collection tax revenue is currently trending above
October 1, 2024 L - 17
202 4 M i d -Y e a r F i n a n c i a l R e p o r t P a g e | 2
budget expectations and therefore the collection falling lower than 50% for the year is not
concerning as it is expected that if trends from earlier in the year continue tax collection will end
the year higher than the budget.
Property taxes – Property tax collections are about 5.3% above anticipated collection for
the year thus far. This is a good indicator that new construction estimates are aligned with
anticipations for the year.
Sales Taxes – City sales tax collection for the first half of the year are running above budget
estimates. Due to the two-month lag associated with receiving this tax there have only been
four months of tax collection as of the second quarter. Each month collected to date has
been higher than expected (13.4% on average) as compared to the budget at the mid-year
point. As in previous years tax collection of online sales, accommodation and food services
and construction categories are continuing to see strong collection in 2024 as compared to
previous years.
Utility Taxes –
▪This tax is directly connected to usage/consumption in the corresponding utility
and is indicative of revenue collection in these funds. If there is a change in the
amount of consumption the tax associated will also be affected. Utility taxes
collected in the Electric, Water, Wastewater, Solid Waste Transfer Station and
Collections, and Stormwater utilities are all either on track with budget estimates
or are above budget expectations for this point in the year.
Charges for Goods and Services – In the General Fund allocations make up the majority
of charges for goods and services. As these allocations are transferred monthly and
reconciled at year-end this revenue is very consistent and is meeting budget expectations.
Building Permits and Fees – Revenue collection for permits and fees is 12.9% below
budget expectations for this time of the year as several large permits expected have not yet
been received. General fee collection in the General Fund is currently meeting expectations
in the budget at mid-year primarily due to more frequent rental of City facilities than
expected.
Expenditures
▪Total expenditures for the General Fund are about 5.0% below budget expectations for this
point of the year. This is due to timing of the transfer for capital projects that are approved
in the Capital Facilities Plan as well as grant spending that has not yet occurred in the first
half of the year.
▪The General Fund expenditures at this time are expected to meet budget estimates.
Special Revenue Funds:
Lodging Tax Fund #101 – Collection in the lodging tax fund to date is 15.8% over the budgeted
projections at this point of the year when considering the two-month lag in revenue received.
Spending in this fund is also below expectations due to event grant and operational payments that
have not yet occurred.
Street Fund #102 - The majority of revenue collection in the Street fund is the result of Gas Tax
which has seen lower than anticipated collection for the last several years. At the end of the second
quarter of 2024 this tax revenue was under collected an estimated 19.5% at mid-year. Expenses are
currently below budget (8.7%) primarily due to timing in ordering supplies. Revenues are expected
to offset expenses in this fund at year end.
Real Estate Excise Tax #1 & #2 (REET #1 & REET #2) – Revenues in both REET funds
combined are currently exceeding budget expectations for this point in the year. Due to the two-
month lag from the time this tax is collected and when it is received the revenue collection is
typically below 50% at mid-year. REET revenue is expected to exceed budget expectations
however collection in 2024 has slowed noticeably as compared to the last several years.
Expenditures consist of transfers for debt and capital that occur in the third quarter of the year and
October 1, 2024 L - 18
202 4 M i d -Y e a r F i n a n c i a l R e p o r t P a g e | 3
as a result there are no concerns in these funds at this time.
PenCom #107 – PenCom revenues consist of user fees collected as well as sales tax and E911 tax
collection and at this point in the year these revenues are 7.3% below budget, due to lower than
anticipated countywide sales tax collection at this point in the year. Expenditures are slightly under
budget due to the timing of payments for software services but will balance by year end and should
finish the year on budget.
Business Improvement Fund #165 – This fund is used to collect revenues monthly from
downtown businesses for parking and downtown improvements. Revenue collection in this fund is
tracking slightly below the budget (1.5%) at mid-year, and is not expected to fully meet
expectations at year end.
Port Angeles Housing Fund #172 – This fund is used to finance housing rehabilitation and
building for low-income residents in the City limits. Revenue collection includes a 0.10% sales tax
collection for Affordable Housing as well as the sales tax credit authorized by HB1406 for use on
affordable housing. Both the sales tax credit and the tax collection in this fund are exceeding the budget
for the mid-year, with 5.3% higher tax receipts as compared to the budget. Expenditures to-date are
35.7% lower than budget expectations and as a result there are no concerns for the remaining year.
Code Compliance Enforcement Fund #175 – This fund accounts for actions taken by the city
regarding blighted properties and code enforcement efforts. In 2024 the revenue budget consists of
investment interest earned and a General Fund transfer to offset Code Enforcement costs and as a
result is expected to meet budget projections. Expenses are expected to end the year below budget
based on mid-year trends.
Debt Service Funds:
LTGO Bond Fund #216 – This bond provided capital for the Landfill Bluff Stabilization Project.
While considered a governmental debt, the debt service is paid with a transfer from the Solid Waste
Fund. As a result, this fund is on track for all revenues and expenditures at mid-year, with remaining
principal payments occurring in October.
LTGO Bond Fund #217 – This refunding bond provided funding to extend service into the
Western Urban Growth Area (WUGA). Approximately 82% of the total debt service is paid by
Electric, Water, and Wastewater utilities. With the remaining 18% coming from the General Fund.
As revenues consist of transfers in and expenditures only consist of principal and interest payments
this fund is meeting budget expectations. The principal payments for this debt occur in July of each
year and will fully expend budget projections at this time.
General Government Capital Projects Funds:
Capital Improvement Fund #310 – Due to changing priorities capital projects do not follow a
spending pattern from year to year. In this fund revenues are currently falling short of budgeted
amounts due to grants that have not yet been fully utilized as well as capital transfers that will occur in the
third quarter of the year. Capital spending is often seasonal and as a result the expenditures are typically
below the budget at this time of the year.
Transportation Benefit District #312 – Tax collection in the Transportation Benefit District is
currently exceeding expectations for the mid-year. This tax collection is 6.6% higher than budget
projections as of June 30th. Collection for expected grants and capital transfers are driving the
reduction in revenues to date but should balance by year end or carry into the 2025 Budget for
completion. Spending is also below budget expectations due to projects that are seasonal in nature.
Parks Capital Fund #316 – Revenues received in this fund are from the rental of facilities,
October 1, 2024 L - 19
202 4 M i d -Y e a r F i n a n c i a l R e p o r t P a g e | 4
donations and investment interest earned. At mid-year this revenue is above budget expectations as
facility rental revenue collection has been higher than projected in the Budget.
Utilities and Enterprise Funds:
Electric Fund #401 – Revenues in the Electric fund are trending 2.9% above budget at mid-year.
This revenue increase is largely due to increased demand by the City’s residential customers,
interdepartmental charges to other funds for services rendered as well as increased construction
contributions. Expenditures are slightly lower than budget (9.2%) at this point in the year due to less
power purchased from BPA than originally planned in the budget thus far and lower spending on
repairs and maintenance than anticipated in the first half of the year.
Water Fund #402 – Revenues in the Water fund at mid-year are in line with budget expectations
and are expected to meet or exceed expectations by year end. Spending is below budget (24.2%) in the
water fund as a result of timing in debt payments, including the loan transfer to the Solid Waste fund
and spending for professional services at the industrial treatment plant.
Wastewater Fund #403 –Revenue collection in the Wastewater fund follow similar patterns as the Water
fund due to charges for services being linked to Water usage, and as a result the revenue in this utility is also on
track with the budget at the mid-year point. Expenditures are tracking below budget expectations (15.4%)
due to timing of debt service payments and transfers for capital projects that will occur in the 3 rd
quarter.
Solid Waste Fund #404 – The Solid Waste fund revenues are tracking slightly below budget (5.3%)
at mid-year due to lower than anticipated self-haul collection at the Transfer Station as well as
timing of the interfund loan payment from the Water fund. It is anticipated that overall revenue will
meet expectations by year end. Expenditures are also falling below anticipated budget amounts
(6.2%) for this time of the year as a result of the timing of the water loan repayment as well as
timing of professional service payments for transport fees.
Stormwater Fund #406 –The revenues in the Stormwater fund are 3.0% over budget to date. This
is attributed to new construction. Expenses are below budget (11.4%) at mid-year due to capital
transfers that have not yet occurred.
Medic 1 Fund #409 – Revenues in the Medic 1 fund are slightly over collected as of June 30th (3.8%)
as a result of higher than anticipated transport collection. Expenditures are 7.6% below budget
expectations largely due to staffing vacancies and timing of pass-through payments for the
Alternative Response Team grant.
Harbor Clean -Up Fund #413 –This fund includes insurance coverage for the majority of costs
associated with the Harbor Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study. Expenses are paid with
insurance reimbursement following, resulting in timing differences. Revenues and expenditures are
well below budget at mid-year indicating invoices and reimbursements for this project are behind.
Conservation Fund #421 – Contract payments from Bonneville Power Association for
conservation activities make up nearly 100% of the revenue for this fund. This revenue is tied to
the amount of power purchased. At mid-year revenues are 40.5% lower than budget due to timing
of payments received for conservation incentives and expenditures are also under budget (25.6%)
as a result of lower conservation program rebates processed than expected to-date.
Utilities Capital Funds:
All Capital Utility funds –
▪ Revenues in the Electric, Water, Wastewater and Stormwater capital funds are the result of
a funding transfer from each of the pertaining utilities. Solid Waste and CSO capital funds
October 1, 2024 L - 20
202 4 M i d -Y e a r F i n a n c i a l R e p o r t P a g e | 5
also receive a surcharge to pay for debt service in addition to the transfer from the utilities.
Transfers are made in each budget year regardless of spending to keep rates stable and
predictable and as a result typically meet budget expectations. It is not uncommon for
revenues to stay in reserves until a project is fully funded and ready for implementation.
Revenue transfers will occur in the 3rd quarter of the year and are resulting in the actual
collection falling significantly below budget expectations for the year. Once the transfers
occur the budget in most utility capital funds will be fully collected.
▪ All projects included in the budget are approved in the Capital Facilities Plan.
▪ Capital spending traditionally follows a seasonal spending pattern and as a result it is not
uncommon for spending to be low at mid-year.
▪ Surcharge revenue collection for debt related to past capital expenditures are on track in
the Solid Waste and CSO funds and are expected to meet budget and debt expectations.
Internal Service Funds:
Equipment Service Fund #501 – Revenues are tracking just below expectations in this fund to-
date due to a lower amount of service needs charged than excepted at this time of the year. These
services are charged to individual departments as repairs occur. Expenditures are tracking
significantly below budget (28.7%) for this time of the year largely due to delays in obtaining
vehicle replacements.
Information Technology Fund #502 – The IT fund charges other departments for the expenditures
incurred while operating and maintaining the City’s IT infrastructure. Revenue is transferred
according to City allocation calculations during the budget and as a result is on track at mid-year.
Expenses are approximately 22.8% underbudget at this point of the year due to delays in capital
project spending primarily for the ERP replacement. This is a phased project and as a result
spending is expected later in the year on this project.
Self-Insurance Fund #503 – This fund accounts for property/casualty insurance, workers
compensation, and health insurance coverage. Revenues are transferred into this fund from other
City funds as usage occurs for claims and health insurance, with property/casualty insurance
transferred monthly from corresponding funds. Revenue collection for mid-year is slightly above
budget expectations and is attributed to filling vacant positions. Property insurance is paid in full
at the beginning of each year coupled with increased personnel benefits due to hiring personnel are
causing the expenditures to appear overspent as compared to revenues for mid-year, however this
should flatten out over the remainder of the year.
Permanent & Trust Funds:
Cemetery Endowment Fund #601 – A portion of the purchase price for gravesites and related
items is collected and placed in this fund for the maintenance of the cemetery after it is at capacity.
Capacity is not expected to be reached for many years. Revenues are currently exceeding budget
expectations for the mid-year with over 58.1% of expected revenues collected to date.
Firemen’s Pension Fund #602 – This fund pays for retired pre-LEOFF employee medical and
salary costs based on existing agreements. This fund currently includes one former employee and
one surviving spouse covered by this plan. At mid-year there are no concerns in this fund with spending
falling significantly lower than original budget projections and revenue collection exceeding expectations.
