LEGISLATIVE REPORT - There was no report tonight.
PUBLIC RECOGNITION
Del Knauss was opposed to action proposed in item 10C, which was pulled from the Agenda tonight
(an ordinance to establish on-street, paid parking on First Street from Rainier Place to Naval Avenue).
He provided copies of a petition with resident signatures to emphasize the support, and asked the
Council to send a "strong message" to the Administration that "it is not up to the residents of
Bremerton to solve the Shipyard's parking problem".
Jim Hamner, President of Puget Sound Naval Bases Association (PSNBA), provided a copy of a
letter written to the Mayor, thanking her for joining their PSNBA delegation on a recent trip to
Washington, D.C. He believes her presence, as an elected official representing the "key city" in the
region was important to their mission, which contributed to the success of their trip.
Paul Drnjevic read a letter into the record, stating his views on the failure of the bond issue for the
Recreation Center. His opinion was that there were too many unanswered questions.
Susan Brown again asked the status of the City. Council Rules & Procedures update, in addition to
wanting information on the "site plan" for the Almira Drive rezone. President Arends informed her
that a final "draft" of the City Council Rules & Procedures has been made available to the Council for
their review, and that a Study Session would be scheduled as time allows. She added that the Almira
Drive rezone was included in the 1999 Comprehensive Plan amendment, which was scheduled for
second reading on the Agenda tonight. [Mr. McConnell later explains that no "site plan" has been
submitted for Almira Drive, therefore no information on that issue would be addressed tonight].
Larry Dickerson began by disclosing a concern he raised at a previous Council meeting about
"monkeys for sale" turned out to be a "scam"; and lastly, expressed his view that not enough people
care about their community or have pride in citizenship.

10D - ORDINANCE (FIRST READING) REPEALING CHAPTER 3.20 OF THE MUNICIPAL CODF
RELATING TO THE IVY GREEN CEMETERY PERPETUAL CARE FUND; AND APPROVAL OF
BUDGET ADJUSTMENT NO.00-12, #AB00-119: Treasurer Rich Hanna noted that if approved, the
proposed ordinance would eliminate the Ivy Green Cemetery Perpetual Care Fund. Presently, there
is approximately $130,000 in the fund, of which $25,000 is interest earnings, which can be spent
under the current ordinance. $105,000 is proceeds from sale of cemetery lots and can not be spent.
If the ordinance is approved, all of the money would be transferred to the "Parks & Recreation Facility
Development Fund", and used to pay for improvements to Ivy Green Cemetery.
Mr. McConnell asked what monies would be used for perpetual care of the Ivy Green Cemetery if
this remaining $105,000 is spent. He expressed his opinion that a modification of the existing
ordinance should be sufficient to take care of the installation of an irrigation system. Mr, Hanna
responded the same funds that are currently used, and pointed out the vast majority of expense to
maintain Ivy Green Cemetery (approx. $75,000 to $90,000 per year) is borne by the City's General
Fund. The Perpetual Care Fund contributes $6,000 per year toward that upkeep, but believes that
even a greater savings could be achieved by installing an irrigation system.

Mr. Farr asked for legal assurance that the City would still meet all obligations after eliminating the
Perpetual Care Fund. Ms. Malanca referred the response to the City Treasurer, who has done the
research relating to State Law. It was her understanding that there were no State laws, and that this
was a self-imposed ordinance. Mr. Hanna stated that was correct, and that the City was a private
caretaker of the cemetery. Mr. Farr commented that this action did not diminish the City's intention
or obligation to care for this Cemetery, out of respect for the families of the people buried there. He
further commented the Cemetery needed to be looked after.

Ed Rollman saluted the dedicated service of 27-year veteran Gregory Seal of the Bremerton Police
Department, who would soon be retidng on a disability. He also enjoyed the Armed Forces Day
Parade last weekend, and thanked Pat Wright, the City Police Department, the Navy, and the
Bremerton Chamber of Commerce for all their efforts in planning the festivities. He reminded citizens
that he can be reached at the Council office at 478-5280 if they had any questions or concerns.
David Fart discussed a vehicle full of trash that was abandoned in his District, where it was then
broken into, and the trash scattered throughout the neighborhood. He was disappointed in his failure
to have it removed expediently, and unfortunately found that it is not scheduled to be moved until May
25. He ascertained the lengthy notification process it takes to have a vehicle removed could be
improved, and suggested the City look at it's ordinances and policies, and then make some changes.
Jim Reed announced the Kitsap Lake Neighborhood Association would meet Tuesday, May 30,
2000, beginning at 6:00 P.M. at the Cascade Natural Gas Building on Kitsap Way, to discuss the Port
Blakely Development on the west side of Kitsap Lake.
President Arend$ also attended the Armed Forces Day parade on Saturday, which she enjoyed very
much. She was very impressed with some of the Junior High and High School Bands, who sounded
very professional. She further announced a public meeting sponsored by the City's Public Works &
Utilities Department to discuss the proposal for paid parking on the south side of First Street, from the
Naval Avenue Gate to Rainier Place. The meeting would be held Thursday, May 25, 2000, at the
Public Works Operations Center located at 100 Oyster Bay Avenue, beginning at 5:30 P.M.

9A - AGAPE/SHELTER PLUS PROGRAM. #AB00-124: Debbie Peavler-~tewart, Administrative
Analyst for the CDBG Program, reported that the City of Bremerton received a $596,400 grant in
January of 1995 from HUD under the Shelter Plus Care Program to provide a continuum of
alcohol/drug free housing for people, who are recovering from chemical/alcohol addiction. AGAPE is
the sponsor of the program. This very successful program has 3 components that span an
approximate 2-year period: 1) Project Based Assistance, where individuals and families live in a
group setting until they are stabilized; 2) Sponsor-Based Assistance where the family or individual
moves into an apartment or home in the community (AGAPE selects the unit and signs the lease with
the landlord) and 3) Tenant-Based Assistance, where the family or individual moves to an apartment
or home that they select, and they are responsible for the lease. The Project-Based assistance is a
10-year program, and will continue until 2006. The Sponsor and Tenant -Based Programs are 5oyear
programs and expire this year. The City has been working with AGAPE to prepare an application to
request funds for the period 2001-2006. HUD is accepting applications for the two programs this
month. It was also pointed out that AGAPE made a presentation to the Council on March 1,2000.
There were no comments from th~ public.
#0755 M/S/C/U (Reed/Farr) Move to authorize the Mayor to execute the application requesting
additional funds under the sponsor and tenant based portions of the program.
10A - ORDINANCE NO. 4711 (SECOND READING) REPEALING CHAPTER 3.20 OF THE
MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO THE IVY GREEN CEMETERY PERPETUAL CARE FUND,
#AB00-119 First Reading of this Ordinance was heard at the Council meeting on May 17, 2000.
Mr, McConnell questioned why perpetual care was not included in the ordinance for those who
already purchased lots in the past. Cris Gears assured Council that as long as the City owned the
cemetery, perpetual care would be provided.
#0918 M/S/C (Farr/Law) Move to pass Ordinance No. 4711 on second reading, repealing Chapter
3.20 of the Bremerton Municipal Code.

11A - pUBLIC HEARING TO REQUEST SURPLUS OF WATER UTILITY PROPERTIES, #AB00-
1?,5: Forestry Manager Bill McKinney, stated that staff has identified 4 property parcels currently
owned by the Water Utility that are not required for present or future water supply or operations use.
These properties have previously been identified in the "1996 Utility Land Management Plan" and/or
"Land Use Guidelines Addendum" for surplus. The request before Council is for the properties to be
declared surplus, and authorize the sale or exchange of these properties per established procedures.
Details of each parcel were discussed.
There were no comments from the public.
Mr. Rollman asked if there was an estimated value for the timber on the first parcel of 120-acres.
Mr. McKinney responded that he did not have a current value, but before final disposition, a
breakdown would be established, and that Council could choose to rescind surplus property at any
time.

Mr. Fart expressed his concern at the surplus of 10 acres near the railroad tracks, and asked why
this piece of property was chosen. Mr. McKinney stated that the first issue considered was whether
the property was of use to Utility operations, and it was decided that this property was not. He added,
however, that it was the Council's decision to determine if there were other issues to be considered,
which would make this property more valuable to retain. He reiterated that if Council chose to surplus
these properties tonight, Council would still have the final say on the disposition of the property.
Mr. McConnell asked if there was a road access to these 10-acres off of Highway 3. Mr. McKinney
responded that the City does not have a direct road access to the property, and that the actual
access is across Port of Bremerton property. The property does front approx. 1300 feet of U.S. Navy
railroad, but for the City's use, the land in its present state is landlocked.
Mr, Law acknowledged Mr. Farr's concerns, but suggested that the Council surplus the property at
this point, to provide one less hurdle to any potential bidder. He advocated having as many options
as possible to assist the City, and added that the property being adjacent to the railroad was not
necessarily an advantage because the tip site would require that a spur be built.
#1195 M/SIC (McConnell/Reed) Move to approve the surplus of the properties showed in Exhibits (1)
and (2). Final disposition of properties would be subject to City Council approval
Voted in favor of this Motion: Esser, Reed, McConnell, Law, Rollman, and Arends
Voted opposed to Motion: Farr
Motion carried: 6-Yes; and 1-No
With no further business, meeting concluded at 6:10 P.M. Council then adjourned to the Council

L.~IVERSAL HIRING PROGtL--~M W.&IVER REQL~ST
The Ciw of Bremerton requests a waiver of the local match for the COPS
Universal Hiring Program following the passing of Initiative 695 (I-695) in the State of
Washington on November 2, 1999. The passing of the initiative and U.S. District Court
orders for the City to overhaul its sewer system and are the principal reasons for this
request.
The City has not declared bankruptcy, been placed in receivership, nor been
designated a FE~LA disaster area in the last three years
We have had two non-FEMA nonrecurring expenses: 1-695 and the U.S. District
Court consent decree. We initially projected up to $486K in shortfall. Currently, that
figure has risen to $940K for the year 2000, with projections of $770K in 2001and the
following three out years. We have taken steps to increase revenue; however, the
initiative calls for decreased government spending. In order to comply, we are reducing
our staffing levels in several departments. Our minimal lay-off, based on 1-695
contributions to our General Fund, is nine full time employees. The maximum number of
lay-offs with cuts from other funding sources is 15 staff authorizations and personnel
across the City. Public safety especially in the fire sector is absorbing the most staff lay-
offs with two. The Police Department witl be reduced two authorized positions. We
anticipated having 64 pOsition authorizations. If we are unable to obtain the COPS UHP
Grant, we will lose a total of three authorizations reducing the Department from 64 to 61
authorizations. We need to maintain a staff of at least 62 sworn officers to assure public
safety. If we do not obtain the grant funding we will lose another person.
The crime rate in Bremerton is 20% higher than the U.S. average and 20% higher
than the U.S. average for cities in the 25:000 to 49,999 population range. Yet the rate of
law enforcement officers per 1,000 population in Bremerton (1.62) is 25% lower than the
neighboring cities of Everett, Tacoma, and Seattle (2.02 - 2.27). Law enforcement
activity has grown at a rate out pacing population trends and tax revenues. We
successfully implemented a COPS F.*ST Grant 95-CF-WX-3977 that was very beneficial
and a Small Communities Grant 98-CG-WX-0369.
In 1993 the Department of Ecology issued consent order No. DE 93WQ-150 to
the City of Bremerton. It requires major improvements in the City's wastewater
treatment system to reduce combined sewer overflows to less than one per year per
outfall, in 1994 the City settled a citizen's lawsuit with the Puget Soundkeeper Alliance.
An amendment to the U.S. District Court consent order is currently pending in federal
court. If approved, implementation of all required projects will be accelerated to achieve
completion by 2007. The cost of these projects is approximately $40,000,000 or one half
of the City's annual budget.
The City has not recently lost a primary employer; however its major employer,
the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, has laid off thousands of employees and contractors in
recent years.
Both the Citv's and the jurisdiction's budget conditions are grim. ,'Almost 2% of
revenue has been lost. The deficit projected for this year approaches $1 million. The
department's budget has increased less than 1% over last year's.
The agency and other City departments recently experienced significant layoffs.
Seven employees were laid off.this year due to the budget deficit, two in the police
department. Fifteen layoffs are projected for next year, with possibly four from the
police department.
The budget for overtime expenses has been reduced. The budget for equipment
and supplies has been reduced. The budget for upgrading and purchasing vehicles has
been reduced.
The unemployment rate is about 6% and the poverty rate is approximately 31.9%.
' The City will be unable to contribute to the requested office~:'s' salary or benefits
in the coming three years.
The retention plan for the position is attached.

4. SUMMARY STATEMENT AND REQUIREMENT FOR COUNCIL ACTION:
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:

Street and Burwell Street in the downtown business district, upon second reading.

2. CLEARANCE COMMENTS:
5. IMPACT ON NON-PASSAGE:
The Downtown Parking Plan as approved by the City Council on May 10, 2000, will not be fully
implemented. 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.

5. IMPACT OF NON-PASSAGE: The City will remain limited in its ability to enter
into development agreements which provide more realistic timelines for larger
projects considered for development in the City. Developers require the
stability afforded by the vesting of permits, environmental reviews and similar
requirements of the more expansive developments.
