COUNCIL MEMBER REPORTS
Mr. McConnell reported he was contacted by a citizen in reference to Jim
Spencer resignation as Director of the Parks and Recreation Department. He
shared the citizens' feelings on the effectiveness of Mr. Spencer as the Parks
Director, which he believes have been impeccable. Mr. McConnell could not
imagine anyone doing a better job in a more friendly and pleasant manner as Mr.
Spencer has exhibited in his service to the City. But, one must do what they feel
is best for them and Mr. McConnell regrets his loss to the City, but wishes him
well in his future endeavors. Any task undertaken by Mr. Spencer will be
handled in an exemplary manner and we're sorry to see him go.
Mr. Overson reported lots of things are happening in the downtown area. He
was pleased to report the Bremerton Naval Museum will remain at its present
location for the foreseeable future. At some point in time, the museum may find
a new permanent location. He noted credit should go to the Bremerton Naval
Museum Board and staff for their working with Mayor Horton, City staff members
and Lou Weir, owner of the building, to develop an agreement that was
acceptable to all parties; and he appreciated that cooperative effort.
Mrs. Arends reported four members of the City Council attended the Annual
Association of Washington Cities Conference, which was held in the City of
Tacoma. She found the speakers and workshops to be very worthwhile. She
was especially impressed with a speaker, an Assistant Dean at the University of
Washington, who spoke on Ethics. Another excellent speaker was Art Lange,
who was brought in from California. She attended a luncheon for Women in
Government where she met interesting people and the guest speaker was from
the Tacoma Technical College.
Mr. Montqomery echoed Mr. McConnell's comments regarding Jim Spencer and
he too received telephone calls from residents regarding Mr. Spencer resigning
his position as Director of Parks and Recreation.
Mr. Farr reported today he attended the Sinclair Landing Association Board of
Directors meeting. At that meeting, information recently reported in THE SUN on
the downtown development was summarized and projected a very positive and
encouraging future for that project. He announced Council Districts #6, #7 and
TAPE #1550, #1551
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes

#8 would hold a joint Neighborhood Meeting on July 9, 1998, 7:00 P.M., at the
Bremerton School District Administration Building at 134 N. Marion Avenue. The
program for that meeting will be "Law and Justice," presented by Municipal Court
Judge James Docter and Russ Hauge, Kitsap County Prosecutor.
MAYOR'S REPORT
Mayor Lynn Horton reported on Monday she met with the Commercial Group
(Sinclair Landing Project) and CIBC Oppenheimer, who are interested in the
possibility of underwriting the financing of the Sinclair Landing Project. She
found that meeting to be very positive and one that validated the project. The
one thing that impressed her most, at that meeting, was the caliber of expertise
represented, i.e., individuals from Boston, New York, Vancouver B.C., and the
southern United States. That talent came at a substantial cost and as they were
concluding the meeting, it was announced that those present were available to
assist the City with compilation of figures and feasibility of development for a
parking structure. Clearly, the City needs its own financial advisors, but in the
meantime that offer was a fairly substantial commitment on their part to this
project.
The City is seeking two host families for the Kure Sister City Exchange Program.
Two Japanese students (a boy age 16 and a girl age 17) will arrive on July 25 for
a 4-week stay. Anyone interested in hosting a student can contact the Mayor's
Secretary Elaine Valencia at 478-5266.
Final interviews for the Ethics Advisory Committee have taken place and the
following individuals have been selected: Steve Schults, Supervisory Mechanical
Engineer at Keyport; Carol Caldwell, coordinator for the American Intercultural
Study Exchange Program, C. R. "Tiny" Collins, a former City Council member,
Russ Johnson, a former City Council members, and Elizabeth McConaughy, a
Reference Librarian at the Central Branch of the Kitsap Regional Library, who
has a Masters Degree in Philosophy and Ethics. Initially, Mayor Horton plans to
set up a meeting with the Committee, City Attorney Glenna Malanca and herself
to outline the intended goal of the group. Following that, she would set up a
meeting between the City Council and the Committee to review Council's
expectations of the Committee's work, which would be followed by a public
meeting to take input from the citizens of Bremerton. She also believes the
review process would include looking at examples of Ethics Ordinances from
other communities. It is the Mayor's hope the final product will be a document
that is easily read and understood, which would come before the City Council for
adoption. Mr. McConnell asked if the Committee would be given the list of
concerns previously raised by Mrs. Susan Brown. Mayor Horton stated she
could provide that separately or as part of the public meeting process.

PUBLIC RECOGNITION
Susan Brown, Bremerton resident, thanked Mayor Horton for giving the Ethics
Committee underway. She was personally acquainted with four of the proposed
Ethics Committee members and concurred that they are all very good and
passionate people, intelligent, capable of listening to other people's viewpoints,
and dedicated to Bremerton. On another issue, she asked the City Council
members to not start reciting the Pledge of Allegiance until those in the audience
have a chance to stand up. Mr. Law complimented Mrs. Brown for her tenacity
that has caused the formation of the Ethics Advisory Committee.
Del Knauss, Bremerton resident, stated for the past year he had asked several
questions concerning Council members' pay being set by a Pay Commission
appointed by the Mayor. He questioned the legality of the Pay Commission
having the authority to enact an ordinance setting Council's pay and members of
the Council all getting the pay raise during their present term. ON 4-6-98,
Municipal Research provided Councilman Cecil McConnell an opinion and
Council held a Study Session about a month and a half ago to decide what to do
about this matter so that the City would better comply with State law. He
questioned when and what action is the City Council going to take to correct the
way they are receiving their pay raises? Concerning the Admiral Theater, he
asked how many Council members or the Mayor accepted free tickets to events
at the Admiral Theater and attended the events? If the above questions are
answered yes, does this present a conflict for Council members voting on funding
issues concerning the Admiral Theate~ In regard to the recent resignation of
Ron Hough, the City's Planning Manager, he has not heard publicly any "thank
you" from the City for his 11-years of service. It appears that at the present time
the City has no Planners and it was his understanding that situation has existed
for some time due to the Mayor's office, primarily Terrie O'Neill, taking on those
responsibilities. He questioned the qualifications of that office running the
Planning Department. He referenced a quote by Carlos Montgomery in THE
SUN: "we've build enough ball fields in this City and it is time to get on with the
Admiral Theater." Mr. Knauss pointed out the City of Bremerton has never spent
any Hotel/Motel Tax on ball fields.
8A - PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT EXTENSION FOR
INSURANCE BROKER SERVICES WITH WILLIS CORROON CORPORATION~
#AB98-141
The City's existing contract for broker services terminates September 30, 1998.
Since ongoing services are necessary for the City to secure insurance coverage
at the lowest possible cost, the City wishes to extend the contract for two
additional years. The service fee will remain at $20,000 per year.

Public comment - none.
#0712 MISICIU(MontgomeryiLaw) Motion to approve the Professional Services
Contract extension with Willis Corroon Corporation of Seattle.
9A - RESOLUTION #2653, ESTABLISHING ADMINISTRATIVE FEES FOR
GARBAGE AN D WEED ABATEMENT PROCESS, #AB98-132
In May of 1998, Council approved Ordinance #-4626 and #4627, allowing
Administrative Fees to be charged for weed and garbage abatements, in addition
to direct physical construction/destruction costs. Council must now establish this
fee amount for these actions.
Judy Johnson, Building Official, stated she would be available to answer
questions.
Public comment - none.
Mr. Reed questioned the formula used to determine the Administrative cost per
hour. Ms. Johnson explained over the past year data was compiled identifying
how many hours are spent on projects. They then took one person - 20 hours,
calculating their standard wage plus benefits for that 20 hours. Mr. Reed pointed
out the calculation excluded overhead of any building. Ms. Johnson stated Mr.
Reed was correct.
Mr. Montgomery stated he views this as a very cheap price to pay for someone
getting their lawn mowed or garbage removed from their property. In addition to
the Garbage Abatement Administrative cost they also charge the actual cost
involving work crews, vehicles and dumping fees. He would support doubling
that cost.
President Farr asked Ms. Johnson to briefly outline how the Weed Ordinance is
triggered, the notification process involved and what ultimately could be the result
of a property owner not taking the requested action. Ms. Johnson explained the
Abatement of Dangerous Buildings has one set of fees (Administrative) $806.50.
The proposed fees would be used in Weed and Garbage Abatements, which
previously were without Administrative fees. When the Building Department
starts on a Garbage or Weed Abatement, following a citizen or neighbor
complaint, they must make a site visit to verify the situation. That action takes
approximately 1-hour, which is followed up with a telephone call to the residence.
If there is no response to the telephone call, the department researches to
TAPE #1550, #1551
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes
June 24, 1998
Page 6 of 16
determine if the site is inhabited by a tenant or the owner, then a letter is
prepared to the homeowner with a copy sent to the tenant, if appropriate. After a
minimum of two weeks, another on site inspection is made to monitor whether or
not any action is being taken to comply with the 30-days they were given to clean
up the trash and/or weeds. Multiple telephone calls and drive-bys are made to
contact someone on a voluntary basis during those first 30-days. At the end of
the 30-days, if no action is taken a Notice and Order to clean up the area is
posted on the residence. This action totals up anywhere between 15-35-40
hours to initiate simple clean ups. This proposal recommends that $575.00 be
added to the simple Garbage and Weed Abatements. She noted the Housing
Abatements still have the $806.50 fee because they are much more intensive
and take up to a years to complete the process. There are often times in excess
of 20-steps where a Code enforcement person and/or someone in the office will
be reviewing and processing paperwork or driving out to the site to evaluate any
movement or lack of movement on the part of the property owner. President
Fart emphasized the importance for a homeowner to take the City's notification
process seriously because in addition to the actual cost of clean up an additional
$575.00 will be added.
Mr. McConnell asked if the Building Department had the ability to give a detailed
listing of the activities that resulted in the additional $575.00 charge. Ms.
Johnson explained the Department keeps a chronology of activities on each
specific site. Mr. McConnell asked if the additional cost would be a further
deterrent. Ms. Johnson re-emphasized they believe the $575.00 is a fair fee.
Mr. Montc~omerv pointed out language in the Resolution states the
Administrative Abatement Fee would only be implemented upon failure of the
property owner to comply with the Abatement Order.
Mr. Reed stated several months ago an abatement issue came before the City
Council and at that time he felt there was an interpretation of what was garbage
and what was personal items being addressed. He asked if any action had been
taken to better identify what is real garbage verse personal items. Ms. Johnson
stated there had been considerable debate on that issue. Usually putrid waste
goes under the "garbage" category. As far as material such as bicycle parts,
television sets, broken pieces of things that might be used to repair something
else, they are using City ordinances that are more specific about what is garbage
and on a case-by-case basis discussing with the responsible parties what they
consider to be personal items. At this time, she did not have a definition for
those borderline items that are someone else's' treasurers.

9B - RESOLUTION #26577 SETTING FEES FOR GOLD MOUNTAIN GOLF
COMPLEX AND REPEALING RESOLUTION #2640, #AB98-142
A change in the Fee Resolution for the Gold Mountain Golf Complex is proposed
to allow the Golf Professional and parks Director greater administrative flexibility
to adjust green fees. the intention is to make pedodic adjustments to fees in
response to changing market conditions in order to maximize the usage of the
facility and the profitability from operations.
Jim Spencer, Director of Parks and Recreation, stated the motivation behind the
proposed resolution stems from an analysis of the daily play sheets where it was
noted play on the Olympic Course during the timeframe prior to 7:30 A.M.
Monday through Thursday was virtually nil. Staff believes the best solution to the
current situation is to adjust the rates during that timeframe as an incentive for
people to play the course during those current "dead" times.
Public comment - none.
Mr. McConnell stated in order to clearly identify the perimeters of the reduced
rates, he recommended modifying the last paragraph of Exhibit A to read as
follows: "The golf professional, with the approval of the Director of Parks and
Recreation, may offer discounts to the greens fees shown above, to make
pedodic adiustments to fees in response to chan,qin,q market conditions in order
to maximize the usage of the facilities and the profitability from operations." Mr.
Spencer stated he believed that was the intent of the proposal.
President Farr stated it was his understanding that the City Council sets the Golf
Course fees and if this proposal passes, it would allow the Golf Professional and
Director of Parks and Recreation the latitude of charging less than the fee at
discounts for certain periods of time. The City Council would not be giving away
their authority to set fees nor would the Golf Professional and Director of Parks
and Recreation be given the authority to raise the fees. Mr. Spencer stated
President Farr was correct. City Council establishes the "ceiling" for fees and
this proposal will allow them to work between the "ceiling and twilight rates" to get
maximized play.

10A - ORDINANCE #4630 (SECOND READING) RENAMING BRUENN
AVENUE AND KEAN STREET TO AUTO CENTER BLVD., UNION AVENUE
WEST TO KEAN BLVD., AND SR3 PARK TO BRUENN PARK, #AB98-123
Terrie O'Neill, Municipal Services Coordinator, stated on June 3, 1998, the City
Council took the initiating steps to approve the renaming of several streets in the
Auto Center Business District at the request of the auto dealers on Kean Street.
Following that session, the Mayor's Office sent letters to affected property
owners on ali the streets proposed for changes and held a neighborhood meeting
to discuss the implementing of the Council ordinance. There were a variety of
opinions shared at the meeting, which resulted in the proposal of an alternate
plan of action.
The alternate plan, which was supported by the attached letters, would impact
fewer addresses. The alternate proposal is to change the name of Kean Street
from 1~ Street to Werner Road to Auto Center Boulevard and to change the
name of Rogers Street to Kean Street and to leave Union Avenue and Breunn
Avenue as they are. Rogers Street is a partially developed right-of-way with two
houses and one business. The roadway is scheduled for paying in 1999 and is
mostly undeveloped. Changing Rogers Street to Kean Street would have a
much smaller impact on property owners than changing Union Street.
Appropriate informational signage would mark the direction to Auto Center
Boulevard from the intersection of Breunn and Auto Center Way and traditional
street name signage would mark the other intersections.
The primary concems of property owners were: (1) cost; (2) inconvenience; (3)
confusion. The initial proposal would cause the re-addressing of over 200
parcels. CenCom recommends that the confusion created by changing long-
standing street names is detrimental to emergency response and recommended
steps be taken to simplify the proposal. Similarly, Maaco, Les Schwab Tire
Center, Western Washington Beverage, and Jennings Corporation have sent
letters supporting proposals that reduce the impact to area streets.
Staff recommends that the City Council amend the ordinance to change the
name of Rogers Street to Kean Street and to change the name of the existing
Kean Street between First and Wemer Road to Auto Center Boulevard and
cause the street name changes in the ordinance to take effect July 1, 1999.
According to the Assistant City Attorney, amendments or revisions within the
scope of the ordinance may be made during either hearing without reintroduction
TAPE #1550, #1551
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes
June 24, 1998
Page 9 of 16
pursuant to the City Charter. However, inasmuch as Rogers Street was not part
of the original proposal, City Council may be best advised to table the second
reading until July 8. By taking this extra step, staff can notify all affected property
owners on Rogers Street and send a new map to those property owners facing
the other streets and Council will have more opportunity to review the responses.
President Fan' stated because the alternative proposal is considerably different
than what was originally proposed he was uncomfortable going forward with
second reading of the ordinance. At a minimum, he preferred to reintroduce the
issue as a first reading as well as cycling it back through the Council committees.
Mr. Law echoed President Farr's comments and the fact that Rogers Street may
be affected and none of the property owners on that street had been contacted.
Ms, O'Neill stated Mr. Law was correct, the property owners on Rogers Street
had not been contacted.
Mr. Mont.qomery stated naming Rogers Street Kean Blvd., does not fit in with
the theme the auto dealers are trying to present, plus Ruth Yates, the only
surviving member of former Mayor Kean, had not had an opportunity to review
the alternate proposal. She and her sister fully agreed with the renaming of
Union Avenue to Kean Blvd. He could not support the alternative proposal.
Mr. Reed stated he concurred with President Farr that Council needs more time
to review the alternate proposal.
#'1656 MlSiClU(ArendslOverson) Motion to table this item.
11A- PUBLIC HEARING ON RESOLUTION NO. 2654 REGARDING
RECOVERY OF FEES FOR THE ABATEMENT OF THE PROPERTY AT 1720
SNYDER AVENUE~ #AB98-133
On April 6, 1998, the City removed household belongings, auto parts, garbage
and debris from the property located at 1720 Snyder Avenue, after the owner,
Rob Aaragoza and tenant, Steven Wallace, failed to do so as ordered by the
building official. The cost charged to the revolving abatement fund for this action
totaled $1,900.00. Council must now decide if the fees are just and reasonable,
and how they should be collected.
Judy Johnson, Building Official, stated on November 10, 1997, the City received
a complaint about hulk vehicles, auto parts and trash on this particular property.
On October 13, 1997, the City inspected the site to verify the allegations, spoke
to the tenant about his not being able to do auto repair at the site and that six of
the vehicles needed to be moved. On December 10, 1997, the City issued a
Cease and Desist Order, with a copy sent to the property owner. The owner
TAPE #1550, #1551
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes
June 24, 1998
Page 10 of 16
contacted the City and identified the tenant. In January the City issued a Notice
of Vacate to the illegal use of the garbage. On February 24, 1998, notices were
posted, the tenant had vacated the site, and the owner had removed the trash
from within the residence and placed it in the front yard, which he was required to
do under the Landlord Tenant Act, for three days. Surrounding residents
contacted the City to report people were rummaging through the trash, which
was spilling out onto other areas. By April 6, 1998, the debris, furniture, auto
pads, etc., were removed. The actual cost for removal amounted to $1,093.50;
however, since this issue was under the City's Dangerous Buildings Abatement a
$806.50 Administrative Fee was added for a total of $1,900.00.
Elizabeth Buell,

yard.
Bremerton resident, stated she did not understand why Brem-
wasn't called to remove the trash that was piled in the front
Allan Stueber, Bremerton resident, had a concern about a weed abatement
problem and accumulated trash at 1118 Hewitt. President Farr noted this issue
is specifically addressing the property at 1720 Snyder Avenue.
Mr. Montgomery stated after reviewing the photographs provided by Ms.
Johnson, he recommended to Mrs. Johnson and Phil Berry, Director of
Community and Economic Development, to find a way of projecting the pictures
on a screen or television monitor so that the public can see what people are
leaving out in their yards.
Mr. Fan' stated he has been in favor of everything to get the community cleaned
up, but he was concerned, as pointed out by Mr. Reed, about a possible conflict
between the Landlord Tenant Act requirements and the City's requirements
under the Dangerous Building and abatement actions. He wanted to make sure
staff has looked at that issue and that the City is within its rights. Glenna
Malanca, City Attorney, stated there was no conflict due to the fact the City has
the municipal authority to determine safety and health related issue. Once that
determination and order has been made, there is no longer a landlord/tenant
issue. Ultimately, the landowner is responsible for the cost of removal of
garbage/debris under the scope of the City's ordinance, which follows State law.
President Fart stated he would like staff to take up the issue of including a
notice with the Abatement Order to the landlords stating it takes precedents over
requirements of the Landlord Tenant Act. Ms. Johnson stated staff would take
that issue up with the Legal Department.
#1898 MISIClU(MontgomerylArends) Motion to adopt Resolution No. 2654,
ordering that the fees incurred for the abatement of household belongings, auto

parts, garbage and debris located at 1720 Snyder Avenue be collected as
reasonable abatement costs, and become a lien against the property.
11B - PUBLIC HEARING ON RESOLUTION NO. 2655 REGARDING
RECOVERY OF FEES FOR THE ABATEMENT OF THE PROPERTY AT 2315
TERRACE AVENUE, #AB98-134
On April 2, 1998, the City removed garbage and debris from the property located
at 2315 Terrace Avenue, after the owners, Cory Martin and Carl I. Brown &
Company, failed to do so as ordered by the building official. The cost charged to
the revolving abatement fund for this action totaled $92.00. Council must now
decide if the fees are just and reasonable, and how they should be collected.
Judy Johnson, Building Official, stated this particular action started on February
9, 1998, when the City received a complaint of garbage in the yard. An
inspection of the site validated that there were (5-6) bags of garbage of trash
underneath a stairway. The City sent a letter to the property owner allowing
them two weeks to remove the trash; however that letter was retumed with the
note "Addressee Unknown." The City could not locate anyone responsible for
the garbage at that location during that two-week period. An Order to remove the
garbage within 72-hours was posted and the City removed the garbage on April
2, 1998.
Public comment - none.
Mr. Montc~omerv questioned why an Administrative Fee was not included in the
cost. Ms. Johnson stated an Administrative Fee was not appropriate because
this situation involved a 72-hour notice, was strictly garbage, and had nothing to
do with dangerous buildings. Mr. Montgomery stated future situations such as
this would be charged the Administrative Fee due to early Council action
approving such a fee.
#2086 MISICIU(MontgomerylLaw) Motion to adopt Resolution No. 2655, ordering
that the fees incurred for the abatement of garbage and debris located at 2315

February 19, 1998, from the Police Department that vandals and vagrants were
occupying the Bridge Tender Restaurant building. The Police verified that the
vandals and vagrants were still occupying that building on March 11, 1998.
During that interim, the City attempted to get the property owners (Mr. & Mrs.
Sam Fitz) to board up or get rid of the vagrants; however, that effort was
unsuccessful and the City boarded up the building on April 3, 1998. The fee of
$1,252.50 includes the $806.50 Administrative Fee as well as the cost of the
plywood and labor to install it.
Public comment - none.
Mr. Reed stated knowing the Fitz family personally, he wanted to make sure they
were properly notified and if there were any extenuating circumstances that
caused them not to respond. Mrs. Johnson explained the City tried to work with
the tenants, who had leased the subject building, as well as the owners, but she
had no knowledge why the City did not receive a response from them. Mr. Reed
asked if the notice was sent to the Mr. and Mrs. Fitz by Certified Mail and did
they respond as received? Ms. Johnson stated on May 28, 1998, June 4, 1998,
and June 14, 1998, the Certified copy was returned to the City after three
attempts to deliver the notice. Mr. Reed stated then in reality it could be that the
Fitzs were not aware of the City's action. He urged Council to make another
attempt to reach the property owners in order to give them the option to comply
with the order.
Mr. Overson stated he appreciated Mr. Reed's concern about notification to the
property owners, but he believes the law has been followed and the process was
necessary and the charges are appropriate.
Mr. Law stated he did not think the Council had the option to tell the public they
had to absorb the cost when the subject property is owned by someone else.

11D - PUBLIC HEARING ON SURPLUS OF IMPROVEMENTS ON
PROPERTIES IN THE SR304 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
AREAl #AB98-137
The City of Bremerton and the Washington State Department of Transportation
are acquiring properties in the SR304 corridor as right-of-way necessary for
construction of the SR304 Transportation Improvement Project. The property is
being acquired for construction of roadway, landscaping, and other similar
improvements. Existing improvements on the property (i.e. residential or
commercial structures, fixtures, landscaping, etc.) need to be removed and
disposed of prior to construction of the project improvements. Removal of the
structures will be relocation, demolition, or fire-training burns as determined to be
most appropriate. The improvements on these properties are determined to be
surplus to the City's needs, the City or State will retain ownership of the land for
construction of the project.
Properties are being acquired in either the City's or the State's name, depending
on the ultimate owner of the right-of-way. The State will convey the existing
improvements to the City for removal and disposal.
Bremerton Municipal Code, Chapter 2, Section 78 specifies procedures required
to sell or dispose of property owned and determined to be surplus to the City's
needs. This public hearing meets any requirements of that process. Following
the public hearing and with Council approval, the Public Works & Utilities
Department will publish appropriate ads and notices, as determined to be
required.
Staff recommends that the Council designate the improvements on properties on
the SR304 corridor from the Bremerton Ferry Terminal to Porter Street as surplus
for disposal as they are conveyed.
Randy Witt, City Engineer, stated during the Council Committee review of this
proposal, a question came up as to how some properties that were not a "total
take" would be handled. In situations where the project "touches a property' it
may be anything from acquiring the property in total, demolishing the structure,
and constructing the roadway on top of it, an easement, or a portion of the
property. All of the affected properties between Callow Avenue and Porter
Street will be total takes. From First Street along Callow North and onto to
Burwell partial takes will be acquiring "stdps" of the properties. There is no
intention to acquire and demolish the 7-11 Store at First and Callow Avenue;
TAPE #1550, #1551
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes
June 24, 1998
Page 14 of 16
however two adjacent properties will require acquiring titles to the properties in
order that the buildings can be removed to accommodate the roadway.
Public comment - none.
Mr. Mont~orner~ questioned if the public will be given the opportunity to
purchase some of the acquired buildings and remove them within a certain
period of time. Mr. Witt explained there will be a balance as to how properties
are cleared to meet the project timeframes, i.e. demolition by City crews,
demolition by contract, burn as a fire training exercise or relocated through some
type of salvage process. He anticipates more interest will be forthcoming from
salvage companies as the project moves forward. Currently, there are a number
of residents still occupying homes under the 90-day vacation process and as
more of those properties become vacant removal activities will get underway.
Mr. Mor~t~omer~ asked if any of the other Fire Districts have shown an interest
in using sites for practice burns. Mr. Witt states yes, including Mason County
Fire Districts.
Mr. Overson stated the proposal appears to be giving Mr. Witt and/or the City as
lead agency a "blank check", but it actually starts the process in enacting the
laws that keeps the City from "taking" properties inappropriately. As an example,
a large strip will be acquired in front of the 7-11 Store and some might think that
would ruin their business and if it adversely affects them, then they will have to
be rewarded accordingly. Mr. Witt pointed out the subject Agenda Bill does not
address that issue, but the City is following State and Federal rules, which are
extensive for compensating businesses for loss of business.
Mr. McCor~nell questioned the legality of surplusing property before it is actually
acquired by the City. Glenna Malanca, City Attorney, stated yes under these
circumstances the City could declare surplus what would come under ownership
for demolition. She noted this action is a technicality in complying with a very
fine letter of the law. Mr. Witt assured the Council that demolition activities
would not commence until the title to the property is obtained.
Mr. Law asked Mr. Wit"[ to explain the source of funding for the identified
expenditures and the timeframe. Mr. Witt explained this action is part of the
Gorst~Bremerton Project (Gateway), which stretches from Gorst to the
Washington State Ferry Terminal in downtown Bremerton. The City is the lead
agency on the SR304 project portion, which goes from the Ferry Terminal to the
highway interchange. It is a multi-agency project that has Federal, State,
County, City of Bremerton, and Kitsap Transit funding in the amount of
approximately $20 million.
TAPE #1550, #1551
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes
June 24, 1998
Page 15 of 16
Mr. Olsen questioned the actual number of feet of "strip" right-a-way that would
be acquired. Mr. Witt stated he did not have those figures with him, however, it
would have to accommodate the width of one lane (12-feet). Mr. Olsen stated
for the record that he was uncomfortable taking this kind of action; however, the
City is following a State rule. He cited Warren Avenue as an example where
property owners were required to sell part of their property in order for a roadway
to be built. He preferred having the project buy out the entire property rather
than such portions of it. Mr. Witt stated he viewed it as a matter of which one's
there first and what makes sense in the order. The discussion with property
owners may result in acquiring a whole property, but that is part of the
negotiation process.
President Fart referenced Rainier Auto, owned by Jim Capps, at the corner of
Montgomery and Burwell Street and the fact that Mr. Capps was still asking when
would he know how much of his property will be taken as part of the project. Mr.
Witt explained in April a Design Right-of-Way Hearing was held where public
comment was taken on the Access Plan. After receiving comments they then
responded to them and eventually publish, under the signature of the Assistant
State Secretary of Transportation, a Findings of Order, which includes the
hearings and says "set in concrete" where right-of-ways will be acquired as the
Access Plan defines, or in this case during the hearing some modifications were
made to the Access Plan.
TAPE #1551
Until that Findings of Order is issued, those questions cannot be answered
specifically. However, he is preparing draft responses to be submitted to the
Secretary and once they are processed through the local review they will be
shared with those affected. President Fart questioned the estimated date when
Mr. Capp will have some idea about his property. Mr. Witt stated possibly in a
couple of weeks. He pointed out the process is somewhat slow, but he does
have funding in hand to acquire the right-of-way along Callow, which is the
critical path.
Mrs. Arends questioned if the property owners were able to negotiate the
removal of landscaping or itemS out of the structures. Mr. Witt stated yes and he
encouraged such action. Such discussions need to take place during
negotiations in order to gain permission or actually remove the items prior to
entering into a purchase agreement. Once the City/State takes ownership of a
property nothing can be removed from the site unless it goes through a
surplusing process.
Mr. McConnell referenced the 7-11 Store and the fact that some of their property
will be taken as part of the project. He want to know if the owner of the 7-11
store property would be allowed to rebuild on the footprint of that building if it was
TAPE #1550, #1551
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes
June 24, 1998
Page 16 of 16
destroyed by fire or would they have to abide by the current zoning codes, which
could possible prevent them from rebuilding. Mr. Witt stated he would defer that
question to the Building Department. Glenna Malanca, City Attorney, stated
when a building has been destroyed through fire or disaster, it can rebuilt on the
original footprint even if there is less than the required setback. There may be
some new code requirement for safety issues for new buildings. Mr. M¢Connell
stated in the case of grandfathered units if they are destroyed they couldn't be
rebuilt. Mrs, Malanca stated Mr. McConnell was correct because it is a legal
non-conforming use, which would be different than the scenario of just rebuilding
a structure. As an example, an insurance company that might insure that
property would be very interested in the response and would be different than the
one she would give because it would have an impact on the cost.
Mr. Overson left the Council Chambers at 7:02 P.M.
#2104 MlSlClU(ArendslMontgomery) Motion to designate as surplus existing
improvements on the properties on the SR304 corridor from the Bremerton Ferry
Terminal to Porter Street as identified in the attached exhibits, and authorize the
City Engineer to dispose of those improvements using the most appropriate
method as the properties are conveyed.
Mr. Olsen reminded everyone of the Dedication of Al Colvin Field, at Lions Park,

She noted Council Districts #6, #7 and #8 would hold a joint Neighborhood
Meeting on July 9, 1998, at the Bremerton School District Administration Office.
Mr. Reed reported earlier in the week he was contacted by a young man, who
was concerned about the re-installment of three no-wake buoys in Kitsap Lake.
After a conversation with Jim Spencer, Director of Parks and Recreation, he
assured Mr. Reed that he would have the buoys reinstalled prior to the holiday
weekend.
Mr. Farr extended an open invitation to attend the combined Districts ~, #7, and
#8 Neighborhood Meeting on July 9, 1998, 7:00 - 9:00 P.M., at the Bremerton

MAYOR'S REPORT - NONE
PUBLIC RECOGNITION
Don McDaniel, Corporate Relations Manager for Puget Sound Energy (PSE),
thanked the Council members that took advantage of the National Guard-For-A -
Day Trip to view Army maneuvers at'the Yakima Training Facility, which included
a helicopter ride and lunch with the troops. He anticipates new legislation will be
forthcoming restructuring the Utility industry this next Legislative Session. Their
TAPE #1552
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes

Page 3 of 11
commercial and industrial customers have told them they would like access to
the open marketplace. PSE will support that legislation, if it arises, providing that
it also includes some provisions for prior obligation to those resources that were
built on their behalf so that the rest of us do not have to pay for them. PSE has a
pilot program for retail willing customers in Bremerton and surrounding Kitsap
Area; however, there was not a great response to that opportunity. He
emphasized the need to ensure the residential marketplace will have the
opportunity for open access and that there will be benefit objectives. At the very
minimum, he believes the citizens should have access to any Iow cost regional
energy resources whether it is produced by a private utility or Bonneville Power
Administration, because the public has paid for those resources through payment
of taxes. At this time he did not know what the new legislation might look like,
but there may be a time when he would need to enlist the assistance of a
combined voice of the community to make sure the State Legislators understand
the needs of local citizens in Bremerton and Kitsap County, who may be subject
to the end result of legislation regarding deregulation. He will provide regular
updates to the City Council and the public, as legislation becomes a fact of life
with some analysis and his recommendation, if there is support needed from the
community. PSE filed a program with the Commission that has been underway
throughout parts of KJtsap County that allows development of partnerships with
local residents to remove dangerous trees on their property at PSE's expense in
order to provide more reliability for delivery of electrical services. He
acknowledged the importance of involving local political leaders and the
community as well when developing reliability programs, which provide a
stakeholdership between the consumer, political leaders within the community
and Puget Sound Energy. President Fart suggested Mr. McDaniel make a
presentation at a future Council Study Session.
Elizabeth Buell asked if she understood correctly that the Neighborhood
Meeting for Council Districts Cf& #7, and #8 would be held on July 8. Mrs.
Arends stated for clarification that the Bremerton School District was holding a
meeting on July 8, 1998; the join Neighborhood Meeting would be held July 9,
1998.
VirRi~ Elkin.qton, Bremerton resident and downtown business owner, asked
what would happen to the small businesses in the downtown area when the
Sinclair Landing project comes into being. He met with Mayor Horton to discuss
that issue, but he felt he had been told nothing. It was suggested that he talk
with the Sinclair Landing Association, which he did, but their response was they
were not providing oversight on that issue and suggested he speak with the City
Council. He was pleased that his concern was noted by THE SUN and resulted
in an article and editorial. He supports the Sinclair Landing Project, but at this
point it does not clearly define the project boundaries. He emphasized one of the
TAPE #1552
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes
July 1, 1998
Page 4 of 11
basic business functions of any small business or even a City Council is to have
short and mid-term strategic planning. Without that kind of planning, a small
business will suffer. He asked the City Council to look at the downtown
businesses, who are making money, paying taxes, and acknowledge that they
deserve some concern. If the Sinclair landing Project displaces small
businesses, he felt that responsibility should be placed on the Commercial
Group.
Tom McDonald, Owner of Quality Tire, expressed concern over lack of
communication within the City involving two issues. On the evening of June 30,
1998, his vehicle was stalled and he call the Police to notify them he would have
it repaired and moved by the next morning; however, he was given a parking
ticket. It was his understanding that the Police would pass on the information
that he had informed them of the vehicle problem and when it would be resolved.
Secondly, he is refurbishing a buildin~ at 5th and Naval, which will house his
business that has been located at 4"' and Washington. He was under the
assumption that once a Building Permit had been signed off an Occupancy
Permit would be issued. City personnel made the following comment to him:
"Your right on the Mayor's way home, we're going to keep an eye on you." On
June 30, 1998, he was in the Permit Office and a lady made the comment "you
don't want us to get mad at you do you.'?" He felt such comments were
inappropriate to someone trying to develop something in Bremerton. He related
an incident where he removed one driveway; however, the Engineering
Department notified him that he would have to put the driveway back in and must
obtain a $21.00 permit, which he felt was acceptable. He had to take out a tree
to replace the driveway. When the Building Inspector visited the site a few days
later, he informed Mr. McDonald that he was shy one tree and his response was
due to the Engineering Department's requirement a tree had to be removed and
there was not another place to plant it without it blocking vision of traffic coming
on to Naval Avenue. The inspector insisted and within 30 minutes he had a tree
so that he could sign off on the permit. After getting all the signatures on the
Building Permit, he went to the Permit Office to get his Occupancy Permit and
was told they had another list of outstanding requirements, which he viewed as
"nit-pick" type stuff, i.e., such as a temporary gate he erected during construction
that would be removed. He was told that before he could get his Occupancy
Permit he must obtain his Business License, however, when he asked to have
his license transferred he was told he must have his Occupancy Permit first. He
was not criticizing Judy Johnson, the City's Building Official, but the
communication between departments has to improve so that it doesn't chase
small businesses out of the City. President Fart stated a lot of hours have been
spent on trying to make sure the Permitting system in Bremerton is as good as
any other place and that communication is essential to make those operations
smooth.

Fire Chief Al Duke wished the City Council, Mayor Horton and the citizens of
Bremerton a "Happy 4th Of July." He reminded everyone that the discharge of
fireworks is only allowed on July 4th from 11:00 AM to 11:00 PM.
Legislative Report on questions raised at previous Council meetinqs:
June 24, 1998
Del Knauss questioned the legality of City Council members' salary increase,
which was implemented upon action by the Council Salary Commission. He
asked what action is the City Council going to take to correct the way they are
receiving their pay raises and when? He also questioned how many Council
members and the Mayor had accepted free tickets to events at the Admiral
Theater. If the answer was yes, did that present a conflict for Council members
voting on funding issues concerning the Admiral Theater?
Administrative Response: The City Attorney provided the following statement:
1. "The Mayor is considering options to present to the City Council on Council
pay increases. The Administration agrees with Mr. Knauss' assertion that the
City Council cannot adopt a pay increase for sitting members.
Mr. Knauss poses a general concern regarding the possibility of receipt or
use by the City Council of free tickets to the Admiral Theater. In response to
his question as to whether this would create a conflict; this office has no
reason to believe a conflict exists. Significantly more facts and
circumstances would have to be determined and considered to make an
analysis of this speculative concept. The concept of conflict of interest is
based upon economic benefit to the official, usually through a contract."
Mr. Knauss commented on the recent resignation of Ron Hough, a City Planner,
and the apparent takeover of those responsibility by the Mayor's Office, primarily
Terrie O'Neill, Municipal Services Coordinator.
Administrative Response: Mayor Horton identified the fact that Judy Johnson,
the City's Building Official, was named the Interim Acting Director of Community
Development in February. Ms. Johnson served in that capacity until the new
Director of Economic and Community Development was hired. Terrie O'Neill, the
City's Municipal Services Coordinator, who also works on annexations, was
involved in the discussions relating to Kitsap County's Comprehensive Plan
process involving urban growth boundaries.
President Farr stated he received several telephone calls from residents in his
District complaining about the illegal discharge of fireworks. He asked Police
Chief Du Fresne to explain the procedure the public should use to report such
activities. Police Chief Paul Du Fresne stated the usual response to illegal
TAPE #1552
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes
July 1, 1998
Page 6 of 11
discharge of fireworks from residents is to call 911 and it is very helpful if they
have a description of the person setting off the fireworks. This is a very busy
holiday weekend and there will be extra police personnel on duty, so there may
be a slight delay in responding to those calls. If the situation is of a minor nature
and the person calling does not want to the Police to respond, then they will be
added to a list for a later patrol. Mr. Overson stated his neighborhood could
attest to the success of that procedure. He complimented the Patrol Officers and
Sergeants in charge for responding to the needs of the citizens. Mr, Reed
expressed concern that fireworks can be sold during a week's timeframe, but it is
only allowable to discharge it on one day. He felt such a restriction might have
created some of the problem.
8A - APPOINTMENT OF JERRY GRIGGS TO THE PLANNING
COMMISSION, #AB98-144
There is a vacancy on the Planning Commission.
Griggs be appointed to fill the vacancy.
It is recommended Jerry
Mayor Lynn Horton stated Mr. Griggs was the former Property Manager at View
crest Gardens. She noted Police Calls and Patrol reports indicated View Crest
Village Apartments received very few calls. She also noted that facility has been
well maintained, which she believes is a real credit to Mr. Griggs management.
He understands about the community and how to operate a good housing
development. Mayor Horton believes he can bring that same sense to the
Planning Commission. Now that he is retired, he can give whatever time is
required to perform the duties of a Planning Commissioner. Mr. Griggs is a
member of the Lions Club.
Public comment - none.
Mr. McConnell expressed his appreciation for the additional background data on
Mr. Griggs. Mr. McConnell resides near the View Crest Village Apartments and
he agrees that it is well maintained and one did not hear a lot of Police sirens in
that area.
Mr. Overson stated anyone who has worked with Mr. Griggs quickly
understands he is a top quality individual and would be a grand addition to the
Planning Commission.

INC. (PHASE I OF THE 36-INCH WATER TRANSMISSION MAIN-GORST TO
RESERVOIR #4 PROJECT), #AB98-145
1,630 linear feet of 24-inch and 36-inch ductile iron pipe and fittings are being
pre-purchased for incorporation into Phase 1 of the "36-Inch Water Transmission
Main-Gorst to Reservoir 4" project. The pre-purchase of the pipe and fittings is to
allow them to be on site for construction in coordination with the Corrosion
Control Facility. The contract to construct the waterline (including ordering the
remainder of the pipe) is expected to be advertised the week of July 13, 1998.
Bids for purchase of the pipe and fittings were opened on June 19, 1998. three
bids were received, the Iow bid, from U.S. Pipe and Foundry Company, Inc., was
$291,226.42, including Washington State Sales Tax. The engineer's estimate is
$305,000. the action before the City council is approval of the Purchase
Agreement with U.S. Pipe & Foundry Company Inc.
Tom Knucke¥, Engineering Department, stated the pipe would be turned over to
the construction contractor that will be constructing the transmission line. The
reason behind pre-purchasing the pipe is to coordinate the construction that will
occur at the same site as the Corrosion Control and Fluoridation facility.
Public comment - none.
Mr. Reed questioned if in the event the opposition to fluoridation implementation
prevails, will the transmission main still be constructed? Mr. Knuckey stated
yes.
#1543 MlSlClU(MontgomerylOIsen) Motion to approve the Purchase Agreement
with U.S. Pipe & Foundry Company Inc., for $291,226.42, for 1,630 L.F., of 36-
Inch and 24-Inch Ductile Iron Pipe and Fittings, and authorize the mayor to
execute the same.
8C - ACCEPTANCE OF WASHINGTON STATE TRAFFIC SAFETY
COM MISSION GRANT, #AB98-146
Request the approval and acceptance of the Washington State Traffic Safety
Commission Grant funding for the Bremerton-Kitsap County DUI Taskforce. The
grant is in the amount of $28,462.00. the Task Force attempts to reduce the
incidence of impaired driving through education and enforcement. It is a joint
cooperative effort with the Washington State Patrol, Kitsap County Sheriff's
Office, and all County municipal jurisdictions.
Lynn Drake, Community Resources Division, stated the taskforce has been in
place for nine years and it has made a difference. In 1998 there have been only
TAPE #1552
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes
July 1, 1998
Page 8 of 11
six fatalities throughout the County compared to other counties of a similar size
and population that have had 30+ fatalities.
Public comment - none.
Mr. McConnell noted the Budget Adjustment reflected only $14,231.00 yet the
grant amounts to $24,462.00. Ms. Drake explained the Taskforce runs on the
State's year, which is July - June, and the City's year runs from January -
January, so the request covers the next six months. Mr. McConnell asked if
another Budget Adjustment would be required at the end of six months. Ms.
Drake stated yes.
Mr. Overson complimented Ms. Drake on a very pro-active program and an

8D - PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH BUMGARDNER
ARCHITECTS FOR PHASE ii DESIGN SERVICES FOR A NEW CLUBHOUSE
AT THE GOLD MOUNTAIN GOLF COMPLEX, #AB98-147
In 1997, the Gold Mountain Golf Complex did just under 115,000 rounds from a
clubhouse that was considered inadequate before the new Olympic Course
opened. The current clubhouse is in poor condition with its leaky roof, failing
heaters and air conditioning, shortcomings relative to ADA requirements and
general lack of space.
Requests for Statement of Qualifications from interested architectural firms went
out in September of 1997, to design a new clubhouse. Twenty-three firms
responded, this group was short-listed down to five, and each interviewed at the
end of October. the Bumgardner Architects were selected, reference checks
were made and proved very favorable.
Phase I (Pre-Design) has been completed and we are ready to proceed with
Phase II. this Phase will include Project Administration, Design, and
Construction Procurement Services. Costs were derived by applying the NE
Fee schedule specified in the "Guidelines for Determination NE Fees for Public
Building Projects in Washington State" to the estimates reached during the pre-
design phase. The costs associated with Phase II are not to exceed
$178,665.00.

Jim Spencer, Director of Parks and Recreation, stated a great deal of effort has
gone into getting this project to this point and that there is a great need. The by-
product of the next step will be definitive documents that will allow the project to
go out for bid. He anticipates the timetable for the scope of work to be done by
the end of 1998, so that construction can begin in 1999 and target a completion
date in fall of 1999. An extensive amount of work went into the pre-design phase
and resulted in a fairly comprehensive report that quantified the project in terms
of square footage, location, dollars, etc. He urged Council to support this next
major step.
Public comment - none.
Mr. McConnell stated this is a project that has to go forward due to the rotting
walls, moister damage in the Pro Shop and roof damage to the current
clubhouse.
Mr. Mont.qomery stated if we have a class golf course we need a quality
clubhouse and he'll give 100% support to this proposal.

Services Agreement.
8E - 1999 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT/HOME POLICY
PLANt #AB98-148
Attached is the draft 1999 CDBG/Home Policy Plan which was initially presented
to the Council during a Study Session on June 1, 1998.
The Plan identifies the CDBG rules and regulations, as well as the City's
allocation process.
A letter announcing availability of the plan was sent to all persons and
organizations who have indicated an interest in the CDBG and Home programs.
A copy of the Plan was sent to those requesting it. A public meeting to discuss
the Plan was held July 16, 1998. We have received no negative comments.
Debbie Peavler-Stewart, Department of Community Development, stated she
had nothing further to add, but would answer any questions.
Public comment - none.

9A - ORDINANCE (FIRST READING) ADOPTING THE 1997 EDITIONS OF
THE UNIFORM CODES AND STATE BUILDING CODES, AND AMENDING
CHAPTER 17 OF THE BREMERTON MUNICIPAL CODE, #AB98-149
The proposed ordinance amends B.M.C. Chapter 17.04 to adopt, by reference,
the 1997 editions of the Uniform building Codes and State Building Codes.
Judy Johnson, Building Official, stated usually every three years the City adopts
the current cycle of Building Codes. This particular code is in its 75th year and
this may be the last time Council will see this particular series of codes because
of a proposed National Code that would be adopted starting in year 2000. At that
time, she expects to bring forward a new proposal. The proposed codes do not
pose any significant changes other than those mandated by the State, which the
City must adopt. No major changes are being made, except single family
residential homes that are 4,000 sq. ft. or less are not required to purchase a re-
roof permit.
Public comment - none.
Mr. Olsen asked if the Home Builders Association voiced displeasure or
approval of the proposed codes. Ms. Johnson stated she talked with their
Executive Director Earl Castle and he indicated they wished they could have had
a significant amount of time to review the codes. However, he did not have a
problem with what he had already seen or what was discussed with Ms.
Johnson. The City did not go the same way as Kitsap County... the City's
proposal is a "status quo" without any enhancements. Mr. Olsen noted the fees
were being raised. Ms. Johnson explained the fees were raised by
approximately 14% over the 1994 fees. The 1997 fees were not adopted as
proposed in the codes.
President Farr asked Ms. Johnson if she had an understanding how the City's
fees compared with the County or other surrounding cities. Ms. Johnson stated
the City is between 2-4% less than Kitsap County for residential. Kitsap county
does not charge for Plumbing or Mechanical fees; however, the City does charge
those fees. She did include in the Agenda documentation a comparison with
Kitsap County fees. The City's fees are slightly less than the County's current
Building Permit fees.
Mr. Mont.qomery pointed out the City does not charge an Impact Fee and the
City's fees are basically cheaper.

4. SUM3,IARy STATEMENT AND REOUIREMENT FOR COUNCIL ACTION:
As part of the Kitsap Way improvements the Washington State Department of Transportation (State) is responsible
for improvements to Kitsap Way between the State Route 3 ramps. The original agreement to fund their work was
signed and took effect prior to bid opening. This supplemental agreement reflects the State funding contribution
based on the low bid for the State's traffic signal systems and their share of the Kitsap Way improvements. The
total amount for the State's portion of the work is $373,048.22. The attached agreement provides for disbursement
of those funds to the City of Bremerton for use on the project.
8. RECOMMENDATION:
That the Mayor is authorized and directed to execute the attached agreement with the Washington State
Department of Transportation for their portion of the Kitsap Way Street Improvement project.
