Susan Brown commented on an editorial in a recent edition of The SUN regarding the fast foot ferry; in addition to an article in The SUN today, which indicates the Ferry System has known all along that there were problems with the wakes, and "made promises they could not keep". Paul Drnjevic stated that he is looking forward to the Armed Forces Day activities, and asked if the City is going to take measures to earthquake-proof the City parking garage at 4th & Washington. Pat Wright, Chairman of the Year-2000 Armed Forces' Festival Committee, discussed several activities and events planned for the weekend of May 19-21, 2000.

Those who spoke in-favor of the proposed rezone: Roger Nance, one of the applicants, who also read a letter from Norma Moon; Brad Hail; and W__,. Earle Smith, (who added that he was President of the Economic Development Council (EDC) of Kitsap County when Mr. Nance & Mr. Targett first applied for this rezone.

Salmele; Suzarlne Holland; Carlos Mont_oomery; Helen Miller; a letter was included in the record from Charles Taylor: and at the author's request, an additional letter read was read into the record from David &Joe, nne Forbes. Glenna Malanca clarified that there is no specific project before Council tonight; that courts have ruled that comprehensive plan amendments are legislative, not quasi-judicial; and verified that the group of letters opposing this rezone have indeed been included as part of the official record. She further stated that there would be additional opportunity for opinions to be voiced at the time a specific development project is proposed. Lastly, she addressed the issue of "spot zoning". Mr. Esser. asked to clarify several issues, including water quality of Oyster Bay, and whether an easement to the water is included on lot 17. Victor Targett stated that long ago, there was an easement, and provided history on that issue. Mr. McConnell added that when a project is proposed, all City requirements must be adhered to. TAPE #1703 Mr. Shepherd asked if a rezone would address the issue of the "character of a neighborhood". Mr. palmer responded yes, that the affects of a neighborhood are included in the process. Mr. Reed voiced his comments, stating that as a 25-year resident, he would also like to preserve the pristine area, but also supports a viable community.

Kenneth McGuire understood the re-park problem, but voiced his concern over the one-hour limit. He believed that changing the time to only one-hour is contradictory to the community and its goals. Mr. Rollman stated he was proud to have served on this committee, and pointed out there are still areas downtown with two-hour limits. Mr. Esser asked what the time-line was for this temporary plan. Pat Wright stated implementation is expected June 1, and will be monitored for the next 3 to 6 months. #0840 M/S/C/U (FardReed) Move to pass on second reading Ordinance No. 4703, establishing new on-street parking regulations in the downtown core; and amending Chapter 10.11 of the Bremerton Municipal Code.

Minutes May 10, 2000 Page 5 of 6 on-street parking regulations in the downtown core; and amending Chapter 10.11 of the Bremerton Municipal Code. 10B - ORDINANCE (FIRST READING) RELATING TO THE CLOSURE OF ANDERSON STREET TO VEHICULAR TRAFFIC BETVVEEN BLOOMINGTON AVENUE & OLYMPIC AVENUE, #AB00- 112: City Engineer Randy Witt reported that staff recommends closing Anderson Street to vehicular traffic between Bloomington Avenue and Olympic Avenue. The Department of Community Development sponsored a neighborhood program to address community needs in the area, including development of the Dr. John P. and Susan J. Matan Community Garden & Park immediately north of the proposed street closure. The Traffic Safety Commission reviewed the request for this street closure at its meeting of February 17, 2000. The commission concurred with recommended closure for that portion of Anderson Street to vehicular traffic. There were no comments from the public. #0995 M/S/C/U (Farr/Reed) Move to approve ordinance on first reading, to close Anderson Street to vehicular traffic between Bloomington Avenue and Olympic Avenue. 10C - ORDINANCE (FIRST READING) ESTABLISHING A ONE-WAY STREET ON A PORTION OF SECOND STREET, EAST OF WASHINGTON AVENUE, #AB00-113: City Engineer Randy Witt reported that staff recommends establishment of a one-way street on Second Street between the eastedy terminus and the alley between the easterly terminus and Washington Avenue. Currently, Second Street is designated for two-lane, two-way traffic, with parking on the south side, however, with construction of the Bremerton Transportation Center (BTC) currently under way, parking has been removed, and three lanes are used for bus traffic to the temporary bus area and traffic exiting the adjoining parking lot. With completion of the BTC, the City will be reclaiming the bus area for use as a parking lot. Additionally, with construction of the BTC, the former "Kiss & Ride" area at the end of First Street is no longer available, and a new area needs to be designated. The City proposes to provide for "Kiss & Ride" activity on the north side of Second Street. Creating the one-way street configuration on this portion of Second Street will facilitate circulation and access to the "Kiss & Ride" spaces. RCW 41.61.135 authorizes the City Council to designate one-way streets in the City. Staff recommends designation of the one-way street on a portion of Second Street. Bob DuPrie, Manager of Diamond Parking, representing and speaking on behalf of the owners of a parcel of property in the area, stated the ownership group is still in the process of deciding there stance on this plan, but did agree there may be a problem with limited access, and also possible adverse affects to the value of the property. Mr. Witt discussed the plan in further detail, and felt it would work, however described possible alternatives or changes in the plan. Carlos Mont.qomery asked if angled-parking would be reinstated on a portion of 2°d Street. Mr. Witt said no, because the angled-parking was switched to the other side of the street, without the break of the alley, more parking was gained. In addition, with the "Kiss & Ride", the parking slots are pointing in the right direction. Mr. Law was irritated that the City would have to give up about 16 spaces (which added up to about $15,000 to $20,000 per month in parking revenue), and resented the State Ferry system and Kitsap Transit, as the designers of the plan, for not planning the Kiss & Ride (K&R) area to be on their own property. He asked if Kitsap Transit could handle the K&R drop-off; and if not, could the K&R be moved to a lower area, because it would be an insult to the "walkers" to pass all of the parked cars TAPES #1702 & #1703 City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes May 10, 2000. Page 6 of 6 there have been continuing discussions on where to locate the Kiss & Ride, the parking plan was developed envisioning the K&R on the north side of Second Street. Whether or not it stays there, the ability to circulate traffic through the area is the element that is critical. Mr. Law responded that the K&R issue should have been stricken from the proposal presented to the Council. #1440 MISICIU (Rollman/Reed) Move to approve ordinance on first reading, establishing Second Street as a westbound, one-way street from its easterly terminus to the alley between the easterly terminus and Washington Avenue. 10D - ORDINANCE (FIRST READING) ESTABLISHING ON-STREET PAID PARKING ON FIRST STREET FROM RAINIER PLACE TO NAVAL AVENUE, #AB00-114: City Engineer Randy Witt reported that staff recommends establishment of on-street parking along the south side of First Street adjacent to Naval Station Bremerton and Puget Sound Naval Shipyard from Rainier Place to Naval Avenue. Providing an estimated 40 on-street parking spaces at this location will help alleviate the parking shortages in the Naval Station Bremerton and Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, as well as surrounding neighborhoods. Revenues from this parking will go to the Street fund. Currently, First Street is a two-lane, one-way (westbound) street. With the addition of the on-street parking, First Street will be reduced to a one-lane, one-way street in the westbound direction. This reduction to a single traffic lane is not expected to impact the traffic flows through the area any may reduce vehicle speeds on the street. Pursuant to WAC 308-330-270(6), City Council can establish paid parking areas in the public right-of-way by passage of a resolution; the City Charter requires use of an ordinance. Staff recommends approval of an ordinance establishing paid parking on First Street from Rainier Place to Naval Avenue. There were no comments from the public. #1543 M/S/C/U (FardMcConnell) Move to approve ordinance on first reading, establishing paid parking on the south side of First Street between Rainier Place and Naval Avenue. With no further business, meeting concluded at 8:00 P.M.

Within a reasonable time thereafter (but not to exceed thirty (30) days following such presentation) each of the Parties hereto, including the Housing Authority, shall indicate to the others whether they deem construction of the Building to be feasible for purposes of moving to the next phase of development. Any Party may, at that point, withdraw from further participation in the development of the Page 2 of 5 Building, but any such withdrawal shall not preclude the remaining Parties from continuing with the development effort upon such terms and conditions as they may then agree upon in their discretion.

SUMMARY STATEMENT AND REQUIREMENT FOR COUNCIL ACTION: In recognition of the Bremerton Rotary Club's generous offer to support the expansion and development of Evergreen Park (Phase II) with a $100,000 cash contribution, the Club is requesting that "Evergreen Rotary Park" be the name given to the consolidated present and future park properties. The commitment of these private funds was critical to the success of the Parks and Recreation Department's grant application for $300,000 of state funds that were awarded to the City by the Interagency Committee for Outdoor Recreation. The Club's cash contribution has been earmarked for the construction of park improvements such as picnic shelters, trails and open spaces that will be developed following the ecological remediation of the site that is currently underway. Representatives of the Bremerton Rotary Club submitted their request to the Parks and Recreation Commission on Tuesday, April 25, 2000. After due consideration, and in accordance with the City policy for naming parks, the Commission voted unanimously to support the request and to recommend approval by the City Council. 8. RECOMMENDATION: MoYe to adopt the name of "Evergreen Rotary Park" for the recently acquired park property adjacent to the south side of Smith Cove, along with the existing park property adjacent to the north side of Smith Cove presently known as Evergreen Park. 9.

ANALYSIS 2 Plaintiff asserts two bases for objection to thc Report and Recommendation, both of which are 3 without merit. First, plaintiff argues that it is entitled to litigation expenses pursuant to the Second 4 stipp-l~rffeh-tal Report and Recommendation and the Clean WaterAx:V. Second, plaintiff argues that in 5 calculating the recommended award of fees, Judge Martinez used an inappropriate attorney fee rate. 6 A. Litigation Expenses 7 In support of its claim for litigation expenses, plaintiff points to a section in Judge Martinez's 8 Second Supplemental Report and Recommendation dated April 2, 1999, which states that "the 9 depositions were necessary for [plaintiff] to adequately prepare for the hearing, and recovery of such i0 expenses is appropriate." Second Supplemental Report and Recommendation at 4. However, it is clear 11 from a review of the Report that Judge Martinez was referring to attorneys' fees and not to additional 12 litigation expenses. This language appears in a section of the Report entitled "Motion for Attorneys' 13 Fees." Furthermore, in the most recent Report and Recommendation, dated March 21, 2000, Judge 14 Martinez himself states that the Court's Order adopting the Second Supplemental Report and 15 Recommendation does not provide for the recovery of litigation expenses. See Report and 16 Recommendation at 3. 17 in further support of its argument for an award of expenses, plaintiff asserts that the Clean Water 18 Act establishes a statutory right to a prevailing party's recovery of expenses. However, plaintiff l 9 overlooks the language of the Act which states that the Court "may award costs of litigation ... to any 20 party, whenever the court determines such award is appropriate." 33 U.S.C, §1365(d) (emphasis 21 added). The text of the Clean Water Act does not support plaintiff's assertion that it creates a statutory 22 right to recovery of expenses and in this case, the Court does not find such an award to be appropriate. 23 B. Calculation of Attorneys' Fees 24 For its second objection to the Report and Recommendation, plaintiff argues that Judge Martinez 25 calculated the award or' attorneys' fees using an inappropriate billing ratc. On the contrary, this Court 26oRrma- 2 33 - Nestern District: of HashingLon 05/17/00 17:O0 Pa~e ~ of ~ #59~65B 1 finds that the recommended award, which is based on the information plaintiff provided, accurately 2 reflects the amount "actually billed to plaintiff for work on the four designated motions" on which 3 plaintiff prevailed. See. Report and Recommendation at 1. 4 -[E-ORDER _ _ 5 The Court, having reviewed the Report and Recommendation of Magistrate Judge Ricardo S. 6 Martinez, plaintiff's objections thereto, and the balance of the record, does hereby find and ORDER: 7 (1) The defendant's Motion to Strike plaintiff's reply is DENIgiD; 8 (2) The Report and Recommendation is approved and adopted; 9 (3) The plaintiff is awarded attorneys' fees of $113,373.75; and 10 (4) The Clerk is directed to send copies of this Order to plaintiffs, to counsel of record, and to the 11 Hon.

STATEa NT Am) REOUIRE mt T FOa COt Cm ACTIOt : On May 10, 2000, City Council passed an ordinance establishing on-street parking zones in the downtown business district. Part of that ordinance established on-street paid parking on Second Street west of Washington Avenue, on Fourth Street east of Park Avenue, and on the south side of Burwell Street between Pacific Avenue and Washington Avenue. In addition, the City administration desires to establish the ability to implement on-street paid parking on Second Street east of Washington Avenue to provide additional parking in the vicinity of the Bremerton Transportation Center (see attached drawing). Each location will have approximately ten paid parking spaces, except Second Street east of Washington Avenue, which may have approximately twenty spaces. Pursuant to WAC 308-330-270(6), the City Council can establish paid parking areas in the public right-of-way by passage of a resolution; the City Charter requires use of an ordinance. Staff recommends approval of the attached ordinance establishing paid parking on portions of Second Street, Fourth Street and Burwell Street. 8. RECOMMENDATION: glove, to approve the attached Ordinance, which establishes paid parking on portions of Second Street, Fourth Street and Burwell Street in the downtown business district, upon first reading. 9.

The paid on-street parking element of this plan is to provide for long term parking for shoppers which will be less attractive to shipyard workers or downtown employees. Non- passage of the ordinance would require the spaces to be designated as one or two hour parking and a modification to the downtown parking plan. 6. IMPACT ON STAFFING, BUDGETS, FACILITIES, EQUIPMENT OR OTHER RESOURCES: Establishing approximately 30 spaces of on-street paid parking is estimated to provide $30,000 annually to the Public Works and Operations division budget. 7.

Parr 932 Pacific Ave. Bremerton, WA 98337 Dear Mr. Parr: Thank you for shadng your comments about downtown parking dudng public recognition at City Council on May 26, 2000. Mayor Horton and our Council members are acutely aware that parking availability in the downtown core must be expanded in order for future redevelopment to occur. We are currently strategizing and exploring options with other agencies on parking development. Kitsap Transit will be making a presentation at a public study session on May 31, 2000 regarding the construction of a parking facility adjacent to the new Bremerton Transportation Center to support waterfront activities and redevelopment. We are also implementing a revamped downtown on-street parking plan to make street parking more plentiful and available for downtown shoppers and patrons. We hope to see you at the study session on May 31,2000. elYa~ Deputy City Clerk PGJ/jer cc: Mayor Lynn Horton City Council Members Equal Opportunity Employer NOI/VEI3dOO3 I:lnoA t:lO:l floA NNVH.L ('IIOA NNVHI 'HOV;I S;llflNll~l E: O1 SIN:ti~li~lOO J.li~lll (s)mell epua§v 5ul~OllOJ eqt uo ~eeds ol qsl~ I CharleMcn Cinema · ummer ~CCC ~tinee I~rcaram Date Movie Sponsors 6/19-23 Mouse Hunt The Kistap Card & Paul's Flowers 6/26-30 Free Willy I Restaurant & The Kitsap Card 7/3-7 Fern Gully "~ Card 7/10-14 ~Church 7/17 21 .... ~- 7/31-8/4 8/7-11~--,. 8/14-18 'Mike Shepherd 8/21-25 (Bremerton Office) 8/28-9/1 s Quick st0p:~' .....

However I do have a few questions that I would appreciate answers to before the Council votes to approve or disapprove. 1. Has each Council Member read and/or understands the provisions of RCW 35.§1 concerning the requirements for an "Urban Renewal Agency"? 2. Has the council previously developed adopted a resolution lAW RCW 35.81.070 and when was that resolution adopted? Reference agenda item 10A. 1. Is the construction of the proposed office building part of a "Urban Renewal Plan" as defined in RCW 35.81.010 (17) and has this plan been formally discussed and approved as required by RCW 35.81.060. If so when did this occur and is the plan available for review? 2. Reference paragraph 9 of the pre-construction agreement: If the housing authority assumes no responsibility for the performance of services which are to be contracted for, who does? It would appear that this is an open book to accept potential sub standard services before the fact. I would suggest that this is not a good business or contracting practice. Why is this particular statement in the agreement? I am writing this E-mail as I will be unable to attend the meeting tonight and would appreciate answers to the above so I might be better informed about this important issue. Thank you Sincerely, Ray Kleven 1540 Madrona Point Drive Bremerton, WA 98312
