The City desires to compete for, and retain, the best candidates for this position. In recognition of the extraordinary after-hours efforts this position requires, the City intends to grant the Assistant Police Chief position additional paid time off as well as allowing for a more flexible use of holiday time. This will be accomplished by granting two additional floating holidays for a total of twenty additional hours, plus the existing benefit of time off in lieu of holidays up to a maximum of 120 hours per year, to be used each calendar year in lieu of receiving specific holidays off. This ordinance makes clarifying changes to existing municipal code provisions concerning time off in lieu of holidays and other benefits for exempt employees, including the assistant police chief position. The Ordinance directs the Mayor or designee to develop an administrative policy to implement the ordinance.

  • Lake Kapowsin Biological Inventory
    Final Report Lake Kapowsin Biological Inventory Prepared for: Washington Department of Natural Resources Aquatic Reserves Program 1111 Washington Street SE, PO Box 47016 Olympia, WA 98504-7016 Prepared by: Hamer Environmental L.P. P.O. Box 2561 Mount Vernon, WA 97273 www.HamerEnvironmental.com 30 June 2015 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The biological inventory of Lake Kapowsin was conducted with the goal of providing a baseline snapshot of lake conditions, and of the habitats and wildlife associated with the lake system. Lake Kapowsin is the first freshwater aquatic system to be considered for enrollment in the state Aquatic Reserves Program. The intent of this report is to provide baseline information on the lake to Washington State Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) for development of lake management and monitoring plans. Highlighted Findings Limnology: Physical habitat: The riparian canopy along the banks of Lake Kapowsin was varied, dominated by deciduous forest along the western shores and conifer or mixed forest along the eastern shores. Within the lake there was a large amount of tree stumps, floating logs and macrophytic vegetation. The littoral substrate cover at the physical habitat sampling stations was dominated by silt, clay or muck, followed by woody debris and organic material. Water chemistry: Preliminary data suggest that Lake Kapowsin is a mesotrophic to eutrophic lake system that thermally and chemically stratifies in the spring and summer potentially leading to anoxic and low pH conditions in the deeper portions of the lake. Additional sampling during summer and fall months is recommended to test these hypotheses. Macroinvertebrates: Twenty-seven unique invertebrate taxa in 7 orders were documented at Lake Kapowsin, including one non-native aquatic mollusk, the Chinese mystery snail (Cipangopaludina chinensis malleata).
