SUBJECT: PMC Update to Street Overlay and Real Estate Excise Tax

I. REFERENCE(S):

Pasco Municipal Code (PMC) Chapters 3.20 and 3.175 Proposed Ordinance

II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:

To adopt Ordinance No. ____, updating Title 3 "Revenue and Finance" of the Pasco Municipal Code, by revising sections within Chapters 3.20 "Real Estate Excise Taxes," and 3.175 "Street Overlay Fund."

III. FISCAL IMPACT:

None

IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:

In 2012, Council established the Street Overlay Fund to preserve the City's investment in streets by regularly resurfacing existing streets to extend their useful lives, and thereby avoid more costly street rehabilitation programs. Since its creation, this fund has been utilized to maintain existing streets through various overlay methods, such as regular crack sealing, chip sealing, and overlay. Revenue from this fund is generated through utility taxes.

In 2002, the City also established the Capital Improvement Fund to collect all proceeds received from the City's Real Estate Excise Tax (REET). State laws governing this tax has limited the usage of the proceeds to mostly capital projects. However, there have been changes to the governing Revised Code of Washington State (RCW) over the subsequent years.

Since the creation of the Street Overlay Fund, an overlay program was created and

Page 16 of 88 implemented to maintain and improve City's streets. The knowledge gained from that experience is now incorporated into the City's process of street construction and maintenance. The City recently completed a large transportation project along Oregon Avenue and will be embarking on a project along Lewis Street soon. These are projects where the City accomplishes the overlay of streets, albeit as a part of the larger project. The recently implemented residential overlay program is another program where these funds are being utilized.

Staff has identified the need to expand the scope of this fund to allow for matching funds to such transportation projects. In the past, staff has managed this limit in scope with additional work to justify overlay cost to both Oregon Avenue and Lewis Street. However, the process is burdensome and subjective, opening the City to unnecessary examination during audits by the granting agency or State Auditors Office. Staff recommends that Council expand the scope of this fund to allow for matching funds for transportation projects involving pavement improvements consistent with the original intent of these monies.

As a second and separate item, staff is recommending some minor changes to the Capital Improvement Fund that collects all real estate excise taxes levied by the City. A change in the name of the fund to "Real Estate Excise Tax Fund" will provide clarity to being a revenue only source, and also avoid confusion with another similarly named City fund. Furthermore, the recommended change would eliminate specific PMC language related to specific uses of these funds and replace that language with by referencing to the applicable RCW, as amended, to avoid conflict with State laws as they change. State law relating to the use of REET funds have changed several times since they were established in the PMC.

Staff presented the proposed updates to Council at their June 8, 2020 workshop meeting.

V. DISCUSSION:

Staff is recommending the adoption of an ordinance making updates to PMC Title 3, "Revenue and Finance," by revising sections within Chapters 3.20, "Real estate Excise Taxes," and 3.175, "Street Overlay Fund."

TO: Dave Zabell, City Manager Remote Regular Meeting: 6/15/20 FROM: Zach Ratkai, Director Administrative & Community Services

SUBJECT: PSA Amendment - Moore/Sandifur Property

I. REFERENCE(S):

Proposed Resolution Amendment No. 8, Purchase and Sale Agreement

II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:

To approve Resolution No. _____ , authorizing Amendment No. 8 to the Purchase and Sale Agreement between the City of Pasco and Moore Holdings Company, LLC, and further, authorize the City Manager to execute said amendment.

III. FISCAL IMPACT:

This Resolution has no fiscal impact beyond what is described in the original PSA and in subsequent Amendments.

IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:

In 2018 the City reached and agreement on a purchase and sales agreement with Moore Holding Company, LLC, to purchase City-owned property at Sandifur Parkway and Midland Lane for purposes of relocated two automotive dealerships. Closing on the first lot of the purchase agreement occurred on February 10, 2020 with a future option to purchase the second lot to occur by July 15, 2020. Recently, due to the economic impact on the automotive sales industry and Moore Holdings associated with the pandemic, the owners have requested an extension of their PSA and associated reversionary clause.

After the agreement as amended by Addendum No.1 to the original PSA, the buyer has six (6) months from date of closing to submit building plans to the City for review and 12 months from closing to begin construction of planned improvements.

Page 23 of 88 In addition to the construction parameters above, the site is bound by a binding site plan, which divides the property into two lots. In accordance with Amendment No. 6, the buyer has until July 15, 2020 to exercise an option to purchase Lot No. 2.

The requested extensions are as follows:

Note: Other executed amendments to the PSA have been executed for various reasons including; extension of the due diligence period, closing dates, and for the Buyer to provide additional earnest monies to the City in order to allow for additional time for Buyer to sell current holdings.

V. DISCUSSION:

The impetus behind the requested amendment is to allow the buyer time to assess the vehicle sales market in order to determine when development and relocation of at minimum one of their dealerships can occur. This is a time of uncertainty in all nearly sectors of the economy, staff views the request for an extension as prudent, and is of the opinion that the extension does not adversely impact the City.

Staff recommends City Council approve the Resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 8 to the Purchase and Sale agreement with Moore Holdings Company, LLC.

IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:

Pasco's African American community annually organizes the Juneteenth holiday events including; a parade, ceremonies, athletic events, social gatherings, reunions, a picnic and other signature and traditional events. It is a festive time for the community marking one the most significant events in the history of the United States.

Below is an excerpt from the Juneteenth.com website which provides a part of the history surrounding the nation changing event.

HISTORY OF JUNETEENTH © JUNETEENTH.COM

Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. Dating back to 1865, it was on June 19th that the Union soldiers, led by Major General Gordon Granger, landed at Galveston, Texas with news that the war had ended and that the enslaved were now free. Note that this was two and a half years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation - which had become official January 1, 1863. The Emancipation Proclamation had little impact on the Texans due to the minimal number of Union troops to enforce the new Executive Order. However, with the surrender of General Lee in April of 1865, and the arrival of General

Page 29 of 88 Granger’s regiment, the forces were finally strong enough to influence and overcome the resistance.

General Order Number 3

One of General Granger’s first orders of business was to read to the people of Texas, General Order Number 3, which began most significantly with,

"The people of Texas are informed that in accordance with a Proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of rights and rights of property between former masters and slaves, and the connection heretofore existing between them becomes that between employer and hired laborer."

V. DISCUSSION:

Like many other community events, COVID-19 has put a damper on the social elements of the 2020 Juneteenth celebration, however all of Pasco is encouraged to observe this day in their own way, reflecting on its significance then and now, until we can once again safely do so together.

Mr. Edmond Daniels and Ms. Charvela McGary will be accepting the Juneteenth Proclamation virtually.

Page 30 of 88 Proclamation “Juneteenth Day” June 19, 2020

WHEREAS, President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation, declaring that all enslaved persons in the confederate states in rebellion free as of January 1, 1863, paving the way for the passing of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America which formally ended slavery in the nation; and

WHEREAS, news of the Emancipation Proclamation was delayed some two and one half years, to June 19, 1865, in Galveston, Texas, when U.S. General Gordon Granger read “General Order No. 3” announcing the total abolishment of slavery; and

WHEREAS, thus June 19th has a special meaning to African-Americans, and is called “JUNETEENTH" combining the words June and Nineteenth, and has been celebrated by the African- American community for over 150 years; and

WHEREAS, the African-American community in Pasco has made significant contributions to the history and quality of life of Pasco and Franklin County; and

WHEREAS, annual Juneteenth celebrations in the City of Pasco have been occurring over the last several decades, however, this year’s public celebrations have been unfortunately cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, Saul Martinez, Mayor of the City of Pasco, Washington, do hereby declare June 19, 2020, as Juneteenth Day in the City of Pasco, Washington, and urge all residents to become more aware of the significance of this celebration in African-American History and in the heritage of our nation and City.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the City of Pasco, Washington, to be affixed this 15th day of June 2020.

II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:

CONDUCT A PUBLIC HEARING

MOTION: I move to approve Resolution No. ____, adopting the 2021-2026 Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program for the City of Pasco for the purpose of guiding the regional and local of transportation and design, development, construction improvements.

III. FISCAL IMPACT:

None

IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:

As part of the City’s effort to provide for the proper and necessary development of a functional transportation network, the City shall, as required by State law (RCW 35.77.010), develop and adopt annually a Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program (Six-Year TIP) with such program acting as a guide for the coordinated development of the City's transportation system. The Six-Year TIP of the City specifically sets oth Cityforth and regional those projects and programs of b significance that benefit the transportation system and promote public safety and

Page 32 of 88 efficient multi-modal movement.

The Six-Year TIP is consistent with the City Comprehensive Plan and can be adopted following one or more public hearings before the City Council.

Projects identified in the Six-Year TIP qualify for Federal and/or State funding. The proposed plan includes all types of multi-modal transportation projects. These projects are depicted in the attached document(s). The proposed Six-Year TIP represents those projects that are anticipated to be needed within the next six years. Projects will be coordinated with available project funding along with associated utility projects and timing may be adjusted accordingly.

Update of the Six-Year TIP and subsequent submission to the State are statutory requirements, and while our local program is not required to be fiscally constrained, the program should be realistic. The Council will see many of these projects again, incorporated with the annual Six-Year Capital Improvement Plan and the annual budgeting process in the coming months.

This year's TIP update includes 36 projects, 3 projects from the previous plan are complete and have been removed, with 9 new projects being added from last year’s TIP.

V. DISCUSSION:

The TIP update was discussed at the June 8, 2020 Workshop meeting, where Council clarified its goals to ensure that private development continues to mitigate its impacts to the transportation system. That multi-modal transportation continues to be a focus for both public and private projects with a greater emphasis on connectivity, from an access and walkability consideration as well as from a safety response perspective.

This plan is being presented to the public this evening in the form of a public hearing.

Projects costs and time-frames identified in this Six-Year TIP are to be considered estimates only and may change due to a variety of circumstances. The projects included in the TIP are not intended by the City to be relied upon by property owners or developers in making development decisions as the plan is not finally constrained.

Once adopted, the updated Six-Year TIP will be submitted to the Washington State Secretary of Transportation by the deadline of July 1, 2020 as required by the RCW.

SUBJECT: Q* Harris Road/Bush Rezone (MF #Z 2020-001)

I. REFERENCE(S):

Proposed Ordinance Report to Hearing Examiner Dated: 05/13/2020 Hearing Examiner Recommendation

II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:

MOTION: I move to adopt Ordinance No. _____, rezoning a parcel located at 11920 Harris Rd from RS-20 to RS-12, and further, authorize publication by summary only.

III. FISCAL IMPACT:

None

IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:

On May 13, 2020, the Hearing Examiner held a public hearing to consider a request to rezone a parcel comprising approximately 1.76 acres located at 11920 Harris Rd (Parcel #126 170 036) from RS-20 (Suburban) to RS-12 (Suburban).

The site was annexed into the City (Ordinance No. 3570), and assigned RS-20 zoning (Ordinance No. 3571) in 2002.

Following the conduct of the public hearing, the Hearing Examiner recommended approval of the applicant's request for a rezone from RS-20 (Suburban) to RS-12 (Suburban).

Page 48 of 88

V. DISCUSSION:

Rezoning the property to RS-12 (Suburban) would allow Applicant to subdivide the parcel into four single-family lots, rather than three currently allowed under the RS-20 zoning designation.

There was no written appeal of the Hearing Examiner's recommendation.

MASTER FILE #: Z 2020‐001

APPLICANT: Tim Bush c/o Paul Knutzen 11920 Harris Rd Pasco WA 99301

REQUEST: REZONE: Rezone a parcel on 1405 ROAD 38 from RS‐20 (Suburban) to RS‐12 (Suburban).

BACKGROUND 1. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION: Legal: Lot 2, SHORT PLAT 2003‐19 (Parcel # 126 170 036). General Location: 11920 Harris Road, Pasco WA 99301. Property Size: Approximately 1.76 Acres (76,649.18 Square feet). 2. ACCESS: The parcel has access from Harris Road. 3. UTILITIES: Water and sewer service are both available from Harris Road. 4. LAND USE AND ZONING: The lot is zoned RS‐20 (Suburban) and is developed with a single‐family dwelling unit. Surrounding properties are zoned and developed as follows: NORTH: RT Industrial/Gravel Mining EAST: RS‐20 SFDUs SOUTH: RS‐20 WEST: RS‐20 Industrial sheds 5. Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan Land Use designation for the property is Low‐ Density Residential. Under the current Comprehensive Plan Land Use designations of Low‐Density Residential the property may be zoned R‐S‐20, R‐S‐12, R‐S‐1, R‐1, or R‐1‐A. The Low‐Density Residential designation includes “Residential development at a density of 2 to 5 dwelling units per acre.” The criteria for allocation under the future land use section of Volume II of the Comprehensive Plan (Vol. II, page 17) encourages development of lands designated for low‐ density residential uses when or where sewer is available; the location is suitable for home sites; and there is a market demand for new home sites. Policy H‐1‐E encourages the advancement of home ownership, and Goal H‐2 suggests the City strive to maintain a variety of housing options for residents of the community. Goal LU‐2 encourages the maintenance of established neighborhoods and the creation of new neighborhoods that are safe and enjoyable places to live. 6. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The City of Pasco is the lead agency for this project. Based on the SEPA checklist, the adopted City Comprehensive Plan, City development regulations, and

Page 53 of 88 other information, a threshold determination resulting in a Determination of Non‐Significance (DNS) was issued for this project on March 10, 2020 under WAC 197‐11‐158.

ANALYSIS Request Applicant is seeking to rezone the parcel located at 11920 Harris Road from RS‐20 (Suburban) to RS‐12 (Suburban) in order to subdivide the lot into four single‐family lots. Property Details The lot is approximately 1.76 Acres (76,649.18 Square feet), and contains one single‐family dwelling unit built in 1995. Surrounding properties to the east, south and west are zoned RS‐20 (Suburban) with SFDUs developed to the east; the property to the north is zoned RT (Residential Transition) and has been a gravel mining/concrete batch plant operation since 1982 (Conditional Use Permit 82‐44‐CUP). The site was annexed into the City (Ordinance 3570), and assigned RS‐20 zoning (ordinance 3571) in 2002. The Comprehensive Plan designates the property “Low‐Density Residential.” Under the current Comprehensive Plan Land Use designations of Low‐Density Residential the property may be zoned R‐S‐ 20, R‐S‐12, R‐S‐1, R‐1, or R‐1‐A. The Low‐Density Residential designation includes “Residential development at a density of 2 to 5 dwelling units per acre.” Discussion Rezoning the property to RS‐12 (Suburban) would allow Applicant to subdivide the parcel into four single‐ family lots, rather than three currently allowed under the RS‐20 zoning designation.

Rezone Criteria The initial review criteria for considering a rezone application are explained in PMC. 25.88.030. The criteria are listed below as follows: 1. The date the existing zone became effective: The site was annexed into the City in 2002 (Ordinance 3570), and zoning was assigned as part of that annexation (ordinance 3571); the current zoning classification has been in place since its annexation. 2. The changed conditions, which are alleged to warrant other or additional zoning: The City is revising its Urban Growth Area (UGA) as part of the Comprehensive Plan Update. The UGA update will likely be smaller than current projections for low‐density residential growth as developed in the past would allow; as such, residential lots would be needed within the current UGA. 3. Facts to justify the change on the basis of advancing the public health, safety and general welfare: The Comprehensive Plan designates the property “Low‐Density Residential.” Under the current Comprehensive Plan Land Use designations of Low‐Density Residential the property may be zoned R‐S‐20, R‐S‐12, R‐S‐1, R‐1, or R‐1‐A. The Low‐Density Residential designation includes “Residential development at a density of 2 to 5 dwelling units per acre.”

2 Page 54 of 88 The proposed zoning request is fairly consistent with the Comprehensive Plan which has been determined to be in the best interest of advancing public health, safety and general welfare of the community. The rezone will lead to the creation of a slightly higher density residential neighborhood providing more affordable housing opportunities for Pasco residents. The rezone will provide additional flexibility for site development while maintaining the low‐density nature of the site envisioned in the Comprehensive Plan. The general welfare will be supported by additional in‐ fill development that will contribute to the cost of providing municipal services. 4. The effect it will have on the value and character of the adjacent property and the Comprehensive Plan: The general character of the neighborhood is industrial to the north and west, and residential to the east; the Columbia River flows along the south property line. The site has been developed with a single‐family dwelling unit since 1995. The rezone would increase the allowable residential density in the area, allowing for a replat and the addition of one additional lot on the subject property. The proposed zoning is in alignment with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use designation for the area. The possible construction of three new homes will significantly affect, or possibly eliminate some existing views of the river, likely diminishing the value of some neighboring properties (However dividing the lot into a currently‐allowable three‐lot subdivision would allow for two new homes, which, depending on the size and location of said homes could have the same view‐blocking effect). 5. The effect on the property owner or owners if the request is not granted: If the property is not rezoned to RS‐12 the Applicant will be limited to a maximum three‐lot subdivision rather than being able to subdivide to four lots.

STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT Findings of fact must be entered from the record. The following are initial findings drawn from the background and analysis section of the staff report. The hearing Examiner may add additional findings to this listing as the result of factual testimony and evidence submitted during the open record hearing. 1. Public notice of this hearing was sent to property owners within 300 feet of the property on March 10, 2020, and posted in the Tri‐City Herald on November 15, 2019; notice was mailed out and re‐posted on May 4th and 11th, respectively. 2. Applicant is seeking to rezone the parcel located at 11920 Harris Road from RS‐20 (Suburban) to RS‐12 (Suburban) 3. Applicant wishes to subdivide the parcel into four single‐family lots. 4. The lot is approximately 1.76 Acres (76,649.18 Square feet), 5. The lot contains one single‐family dwelling unit (SFDU). 6. The SFDU on site was built in 1995. 7. Surrounding properties to the east, south and west are zoned RS‐20 (Suburban) with SFDUs developed to the east; 8. The property to the north is zoned RT (Residential Transition). 9. The property to the north has been a gravel mining/concrete batch plant operation since 1982. 10. The site was annexed into the City in 2002. 11. The site was assigned RS‐20 zoning in 2002. 12. The Comprehensive Plan designates the property “Low‐Density Residential.”

3 Page 55 of 88 13. Under the Low‐Density Residential land use designation the property may be zoned R‐S‐20, R‐S‐ 12, R‐S‐1, R‐1, or R‐1‐A. 14. The Low‐Density Residential designation includes “Residential development at a density of 2 to 5 dwelling units per acre.” 15. Rezoning the property to RS‐12 (Suburban) would allow Applicant to subdivide the parcel into four single‐family lots, rather than three currently allowed under the RS‐20 zoning designation.

TENTATIVE CONCLUSIONS BASED ON INITIAL STAFF FINDINGS OF FACT Before recommending approval or denial of a rezone, the hearing Examiner must develop findings of fact from which to draw its conclusions based upon the criteria listed in PMC 25.210.060. The criteria are as follows: 1. The proposal is in accordance with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. The proposal is in accordance with the Comprehensive plan; The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the property ”Low‐Density Residential.” Under the current Comprehensive Plan Land Use designations of Low‐Density Residential the property may be zoned R‐S‐20, R‐S‐12, R‐S‐1, R‐1, or R‐1‐A. The Low‐Density Residential designation includes “Residential development at a density of 2 to 5 dwelling units per acre.” Demand for residential units exceeds that for commercial in the City. As well, uses to the north and south are both residential. 2. The effect of the proposal on the immediate vicinity will not be materially detrimental. The existing structure has been in place for approximately 25 years, and has not been a detriment to the area. Surrounding properties to the east, south and west are zoned RS‐20 with SFDUs developed to the east; the property to the north is zoned RT and has been a gravel mining/concrete batch plant operation since 1982. Rezoning the property to RS‐12 would allow for the current lot to be subdivided into four lots rather than the currently allowable three, and the development of one additional SFDU, which may diminish the value of surrounding properties, depending on the size, location, and quality of the structure. While any home built on a future subdivision of the land could block existing views of the Columbia River, the likelihood of that view blockage is increased by the addition of one more housing unit. 3. There is merit and value in the proposal for the community as a whole. The City is revising its Urban Growth Area (UGA) as part of the Comprehensive Plan Update. The UGA update will likely be smaller than current projections for low‐density residential growth as developed in the past would allow; as such, more residential lots are needed within the current UGA. 4. Conditions should be imposed in order to mitigate any significant adverse impacts from the proposal. The proposal is for increased density; Under the current Comprehensive Plan Land Use designations of Low‐Density Residential the property may be zoned R‐S‐20, R‐S‐12, R‐S‐1, R‐1, or R‐1‐A. As such, no special conditions would be required. As well, the City is revising its Urban Growth Area (UGA) as part of the Comprehensive Plan Update. The UGA update will likely be smaller than current projections for low‐density residential growth as developed in the past would allow; as such, more residential lots are needed within the current UGA.

5. A Concomitant Agreement should be entered into between the City and the petitioner, and if so, the terms and conditions of such an agreement. A concomitant agreement would not be required in this circumstance.

RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends based on the Findings of Fact and Conclusions that the parcel at 11920 Harris Road, described as Lot 2, SHORT PLAT 2003‐19 (Parcel # 126 170 036), be rezoned from RS‐20 to RS‐12.

C/O Mr. Jeffrey Adams

Subject: Comments on Rezone Application: April 8, 2020 – Bush Harris Road Rezone – Master File Z 2020-001

To whom it may concern:

I would like to offer the following comments on the proposed rezone of: Lot 2, SHORT PLAT 2003‐19 (Parcel # 126 170 036) from it’s current zoning designation of RS-20 to RS-12. I believe the materials prepared for the April 8th public hearing are incorrect or incomplete in multiple areas of the analysis related to the rezone criteria as detailed below.

On page 2 of the document, item 2 of the review criteria is speculative in nature, if as indicated in the document, the City has not yet approved a revision to its Urban Growth Area.

Item 3 on page two does not appear to be responsive to the review criteria as it does not “justify the change on the basis of advancing the public health, safety and general welfare”. Rather it describes how the proposed rezoning would be consistent with “The Comprehensive Plan”.

The analysis of item 4 does not discuss the effect the proposed rezone will have on the value and character of the adjacent property and the comprehensive plan. My wife and I are located adjacent to the east of the property in question, at the northernmost end of the subject property. The proposed rezoning will allow a replat of the subject property that will allow for the establishment of a new building lot and eventual construction of a new home that will significantly effect, or possibly eliminate altogether our existing view of the river. If allowed, this will diminish the value of our property. The analysis as written does not identify or take into account this impact. The current analysis simply describes the general character of the neighborhood and does not reflect the changes that would take place to it if the rezone is approved nor does it discuss the effect the proposed rezoning will have on the adjacent property.

Item 5 of the analysis of the review criteria is accurate, but I do not believe it provides compelling justification for the rezone.

Tentative Conclusions Based on Initial Staff Findings of Fact

Page 72 of 88 I believe the review of criteria 2, “The effect of the proposal on the immediate vicinity will not be materially detrimental” is not correct. The justification provided discusses how the past use of the property has not been a detriment, describes the zoning of surrounding properties, and states that rezoning the property to RS-12 would allow the development of one additional SFDU. It does not describe in any way the effect of the proposal on the immediate vicinity, and does not account for the likely diminished value of our property, or potentially other adjacent property, if the proposal is approved.

Based upon the issues and concerns I have addressed above; I am opposed to approval of the requested rezoning of the subject property.

Thank you for the opportunity to comment and for your consideration of them.

Sincerely,

Mark and Kim Coronado

Page 73 of 88 Comments on Rezone application

I would like to provide the following comments on the petition for zone change Master File # Z 2020- 001. Since the questions on the application are not numbered, I have restated the question below and provide my comments on the information provided on the application.

What conditions warrant the proposed rezone? The only reason provided is because the owner desires to put in a four lot subdivision the existing rezone density will only allow three.

How will the proposed rezone advance the health, safety, and general welfare of the community? The applicant states that it will allow a greater number of applicants to have direct access to the Columbia River. I do not believe this to be correct. The current plan for the subdivision has two additional water front lots and one that is not water front. I believe it would be possible to establish two new river front lots without approval of the zoning request. Even if the benefit as described is to be considered, it is of very minimal benefit to the community as a whole as the increased river access would only be available to the owners of the two new river front lots.

What effect will the proposed change have on the value and character of adjacent property? The applicant states that when sold, future lots will be sold as “River Front Property” thus future sales would potentially increase surrounding property values. The land in question is currently river front property that has been nicely developed and landscaped. It is unlikely that creating two additional lots will increase the value of the existing property (creating more of something does not generally create the value of existing inventories, if anything it tends to reduce the value of existing inventories). The proposal also does not acknowledge that the current river views of three existing properties in River Shore Estates will be partially to almost completely obstructed. This will very likely result in decreased value to these three properties. The most likely net impact to the value of adjacent properties is a decrease, not increase.

T’il’ x̌ǝšt - Hello

RE: Bush Harris Rd. rezone project Location: T9N/R28E/Sec. 13

Please be advised your proposed undertaking lies near the traditional territory of the Palus Tribe. The Palus Tribe is a constituent member of and represented by the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation [Colville Confederated Tribes (CCT)]. The CCT is governed by the Colville Business Council (CBC). The CBC delegated to the Tribal Historic Preservation Officer (THPO) the responsibility of representing the CCT with regard to cultural resources management issues throughout these traditional territories of our constituent tribes under Resolution 1996-29. This area includes most of , parts of northeastern Oregon, south central British Columbia, and parts of north central Idaho. In 1996, the CCT also entered into an agreement with the National Park Service to assume state historic preservation officer responsibilities as outlined in Section 101 (d) (2) of the National Historic Preservation Act. The assumption agreement explicitly tasks the Tribal Historic Preservation Officer (THPO), to advise and assist Federal and State agencies and local governments in carrying out their historic preservation responsibilities and for the CCT to carry out their responsibilities for review of federal undertakings in regard to cultural resources matters.

The project entails a request to rezone a single lot from RS-20 to RS-12 in order to subdivide the lot into four single family lots. According to the SEPA checklist (page 11 c.) a search of WISAARD was negative for cultural resources, but the project APE is within the Tri-Cities Archaeological District. Also (page 11 d.) states that in case of cultural resources discovered, “the City of Historic Preservation Department of said discovery” – not sure what that means?

There is insufficient data to assess impacts of this project on cultural resources. Therefore we request an archaeological assessment or investigation be conducted in the project APE and the resulting report be sent for review prior to the commencement of the project.

Lámlamt - thank you

Page 77 of 88 CITY OF PASCO HEARING EXAMINER FINDINGS OF FACT, CONCLUSIONS OF LAW, AND RECOMMENDATION

Rezone Z 2020-001, Bush

June 1, 2020 ______

1. FINDINGS OF FACT 1.1 Proposal. Request to rezone a 1.76-acre parcel from RS-20 (Suburban) zoning to RS-12 (Suburban).

1.2 Applicant and Location: Applicant: Tim Bush c/o Paul Knutzen, 11920 Harris Road, Pasco, WA 99301. Location: 11920 Harris Road, Pasco, WA 99301. Legal Description: Lot 2, Short Plat 2003-19 (Parcel No. 126-170-036). 1.3 Site Use. Developed with a single-family residence. 1.4 Land Use Designations/Site and Surrounding Area. The Comprehensive Plan designates the site as Low-Density Residential, which allows for RS-20, RS-12, RS-1, R-1, or R- 1A zoning. Surrounding land uses include: North: RT, industrial/gravel mining (across Harris Road) East: RS-20, single-family residences South: RS-20, Columbia River to the southwest West: RS-20, industrial sheds

A rezone to RS-12 would allow for subdivision of the parcel into four single-family lots rather than the three currently allowed under the RS-20 zoning designation.

1.5 Evidence Reviewed. The Examiner admitted the Community and Economic Development Department's (“Department”) Staff Report, which attached maps of the site and surrounding area (overview, vicinity, land use, zoning, and plan), photographs, DNS, and comments from neighbors and the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation. Except as revised, the Staff Report is incorporated into these findings.

1.6 SEPA (State Environmental Policy Act, Ch. 43.21C RCW). The Department issued an unappealed Determination of Non-Significance. SEPA review is complete. 1.7 Hearing. A properly noticed open record public hearing was held May 13, 2020.1 Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the hearing was conducted remotely, with the Examiner,

1 Public notice was mailed to property owners within 300 feet and published in the Tri-City Herald. PMC 25.210.040.

City of Pasco Hearing Examiner Page 1 of 3 Recommendation, Bush Rezone Z 2020-001 Page 78 of 88 Department, and Applicant calling in. Access information was available to the public to allow citizens to join via either a video link or telephone call-in. There were no reported technical difficulties during the call or afterwards. However, in case any citizens who wished to comment had difficulty calling in, the record was kept open for five days, through May 18. No additional written comments were received. The Department summarized the project, and the Applicant, through Mr. Knutzen, addressed Hearing Examiner questions. No person from the public indicated a wish to testify. 1.8 Public Comment/Written. Comment was received from nearby property owners Mark and Kim Coronado, who are concerned with river view obstruction and decreased property values. Comment was also received from Arrow Coyote, archaeologist with the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation, who requested an archaeological assessment or investigation.

1.9 Utilities. Water and sewer service are available from Harris Road. 1.10 Access. Harris Road.

1.11 Rezone Considerations. A rezone to RS-12 implements the Comprehensive Plan, and is in accord with its goals and policies. The rezone provides additional flexibility for site development while maintaining the low-density nature of the site. The creation of a slightly higher density residential neighborhood provides more affordable housing opportunities for Pasco residents. The possible construction of three new homes may alter some existing views of the river; however, dividing the lot into a currently-allowable three-lot subdivision would add two new homes, which could have the same effect depending on their size and location.

2. CONCLUSIONS The Examiner issues a rezone recommendation based on whether:

(a) The proposal is in accord with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan;

(b) The effect of the proposal on the immediate vicinity will be materially detrimental;

(c) There is merit and value in the proposal for the community as a whole;

(d) Conditions should be imposed in order to mitigate any significant adverse impacts from the proposal;

(e) A concomitant agreement should be entered into between the City and the petitioner, and if so, the terms and conditions of such an agreement.2

Proposed Resolution

If after deliberation, Council may decide to adopt the proposed resolution as is or as amended:

Option No. 1 - MOTION: I move to adopt Resolution No. ____, reaffirming the right of the people to peaceful assembly.

III. FISCAL IMPACT:

N/A

IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:

At the June 1, 2020 City Council meeting, the Council established a Council subcommittee to work with the City's Inclusion, Diversity and Equity Commission (IDEC) and reach out to community leaders for the purpose of formulating a Council resolution affirming the right of peaceable assembly, as enshrined in the U.S. and Washington State Constitutions.

Page 81 of 88 V. DISCUSSION:

The subcommittee met with an IDEC representative and other community leaders in a virtual group meeting on Thursday, June 4, via video conference and conducted an in- depth discussion on the prospect of resolution stating the City Council's position and on related issues.

Out of that discussion, the intent of the proposed resolution is to acknowledge some difficult history, the fact that injustices continue throughout the country, assure the public of the City’s commitment to the safety of community members exercising their rights, and set the foundation for continued dialogue and collaboration between the community and the City, and that the City, as an organization, along with the community as a whole, will together work to develop a course of action that will move Pasco forward in a positive direction consistent with the goals of Resolution No. 3820.

Staff prepared an initial draft for the subcommittee's consideration based on that community discussion, the committee made their revisions and the revised draft was sent out to the community group for feedback. The feedback received was generally positive, with some concern however that the resolution while the resolution touched on the issues discussed, it did not provide for detailed steps or timelines on addressing issues at raised during the aforementioned group meeting.

After taking in this valuable input, the subcommittee met again on Thursday, June 11, to consider that feedback and to produce this final draft. Given the relatively short turnaround, the need for further discussion and involvement by the full Council and community, and the charge of the subcommittee by the full Council, including identifiable steps timelines to address the myriad of issues around racial inequality made an attempt for a detailed plan unachievable at this time and at this point in the community dialogue.

That said, the proposed resolution includes a firm City commitment for action by the City, a pledge in fact, to engage the community with an emphasis on people of color. No doubt that engagement will provide for a well-thought out and comprehensive plan of action borne of robust community engagement and involvement. It is difficult to predict where future discussions will lead or what ultimately may come of them, except that invariably progress almost always comes from this very type of effort. These are the kinds of lifts that move cities and the people that live in them forward.

Staff recommends that Council discuss the resolution, consider the positions espoused, and commitment for action implied, modify as needed, and consider adoption.

Resolution – Peaceful Assembly - 1

Page 83 of 88 WHEREAS, these community efforts have resulted in an updated use of force policy, body-worn cameras, embedded mental health workers, increased comprehensive training, state and national accreditation, and many other structural changes, which have made the Pasco Police Department a model of Community-Oriented Policing; and

WHEREAS, the Pasco City Council, by oath or affirmation, pledged to uphold and support the Constitutions of the United States of America and the State of Washington, as well as the laws of the State of Washington, and hereby reaffirms its firm commitment to do so for the equal benefit and safety of all of the people of Pasco.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PASCO, DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:

Section 1. Reaffirmation of Resolution 3820. The City of Pasco reaffirms the intent of Resolution 3820 for Pasco to be an Inclusive City, committed to embracing diversity and promoting equality among our workforce, residents, businesses, and visitors.

TO: Dave Zabell, City Manager Remote Regular Meeting: 6/15/20 FROM: Bob Gear, Fire Chief Fire Department

SUBJECT: *Bid Award - Fire Station No. 84 and Fire Headquarters

I. REFERENCE(S):

Fire Station No. 84-Bid Tabulations Station No. 84 Rendering

II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:

MOTION: I move to award the bid for construction of Fire Station No. 84 & Fire Headquarters to Jackson Contractor Group, Inc. in the amount of $7,526,305.80 including Washington State Sales Tax, and further authorize the City Manager to execute the contract documents.

III. FISCAL IMPACT:

$7,526,305.80 funded through proceeds of 2019 LTGO Bond

IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:

Per prior direction of the City Council through the Fire Strategic Plan, 2020-2025 Capital Improvement Plan and adopted 2019-2020 Biennial Budget, bids were let for construction of a new Fire Station No. 84 and Fire Headquarters to replace the aging, undersized existing station to a new location as previously identified that is more centrally located in the response area.

Relocation of the fire station will decrease response times to the vast majority of residents and business within the Fire Station No. 84 response area, enhance the safety of the crews stationed at the facility and allow for fire and emergency medical response to a large portion of the Riverview area within the adopted response time. It will also include the Administrative offices for the Fire Administrative staff. Currently the Fire Chief, Deputy Fire Chief, EMS Medical Officer, Fire Training Officer, Community Risk Reduction Officer and the Administrative Assistant are in a leased facility at the

Page 85 of 88 Port of Pasco.

V. DISCUSSION:

As specified, bids for the project were received and opened on June 9, 2020. The City received a total of four (4) responsive bids. The lowest responsive bid was submitted by Jackson Contractor Group, Inc. in the amount of $6,930,300.00. Washington State Sales tax will add $596,005.80 to the bid for a total of $7,526,305.80 including both alternates.

The lowest responsive bid is below the engineers construction estimate of 9,252,122.70 including Washington State Sales tax, and within the project budget. Additional costs are anticipated as part of construction, specifically, the planned installation of the Fire Station Alerting System equipment and installation, which will be bid separately and installed in all four City fire stations. As provided for in the project budget, expenditures for construction management services and additional architectural services during the build are planned.

As the aforementioned bid is responsive and within the appropriated budget, staff recommends award of the Fire Station No. 84 and Headquarters bid to Jackson Contractor Group, Inc.
