On October 29 she hosted a meeting that included several Puget Rental Operators Association members, where they discussed her Neighborhood enforcement proposals, which were provided to Council at an earlier date. They discussed not only the basic concepts, but how to form better linkages with the rental operators and what the City could do through the Police Department to aid them, if they get tenants that cause problems in their properties and in the neighborhoods. A follow up meeting will be held that will be more of a technical working meeting to go over the details of the Housing Code and proposed draft ordinances. PUBLIC RECOGNITION Kevin Thurston stated his desire to incorporate an Acceptance Program, a Christ centered program, into the Bremerton School district. He briefly outlined the intent of this program, activities involved and its impact on students and the community. charlene Burnett, Parks and Recreation Department, invited everyone to attend the All City Halloween Party on October 31, 1996, starting at 5:30 P.M., at the Sheridan Parks Recreation Center.

Shirley Howerton, Bremerton resident, stated two weeks ago she presented the Council with a petition requesting the City ban any rally type activity along Wheaton Way. It concerned her that the City has not responded with some kind of action to implement such TAPE #1418 City Council Reg. Mtg. October 30, 1996 Page 3 of 15 Minutes a ban considering the heavy traffic on Wheaton Way and the danger it presents to pedestrians. She recalled in the 1960-70's Bremerton had an ordinance that required everyone wishing to hold a rally or gathering of any sort to go to the law enforcement agency and inform them of their planned activity. Law enforcement then had the option and utilized it to identify a safe place where such an assemble could be held. Mrs. Howerton would like the City of Bremerton to reinstate that requirement. President Law stated Mrs. Howerton would receive a response from the City. Don Atkinson, KITZ, announced KITZ would provide election coverage on November 5. Ruth Reese, Swing City Committee, invited everyone to attend the HARVEST MOON PARTY on November 8, 8:00 - 12:00 P.M., at the Bremerton Eagles. This event is sponsored by Swing City Committee. 7AA - RESOLUTION ~2566 CERTIFYING ANEMERGENCY, APPROVING PURCHASE OF REPLACEMENT PUMP ANDMOTOR ASSEMBLY FOR WASTEWATER PUMP STATION WB-3 AND WAIVING THE BID PROCEDURES~ ~AB96-251 President Law announced because this item is an emergency action item it has been added to the Agenda. He requested the Resolution be read into the record: "WHEREAS, a primary backup pump and motor assembly has failed beyond repair at Wastewater Pump Station WB-3; and WHEREAS, the pump and motor assembly is the primary backup and essential to the operation of the pump station; and WHEREAS, immediate replacement is necessary to ensure the ongoing operation of Pump Station WB-3; and WHEREAS, budget currently exists in the Capital authorization within the Wastewater Fund to upgrade this pump assembly with current technology similar to WB-3 Pump Assembly #1; and WHEREAS, estimates have been secured from various vendors to ensure competitive pricing; now therefore, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Bremerton: 1. That the failure of Pump Assembly #2 at Pump Station WB-3 is certified as an emergency situation, needing immediate corrective action in response to the need for essential backup pumping capacity. 2.

Mtg. October 30, 1996 Page 4 of 15 Minutes this emergency situation, and bid procedures of RCW 35.22.620(2) are waived." Public comment - none. Mr. Overson questioned the cost of the necessary equipment? Rich Hanna, Acting city Clerk, stated the cost would be approximately $16,000.00. M/S/C/U(Montgomery-Huff-Menees) to approve Resolution #2566, certifying an emergency, approving purchase of replacement pump and motor assembly for Wastewater Pump Station WB-3 and waiving bid procedures. 7A - APPOINTMENT OF GARY A. POD TO THE BOARD OF APPEALS~ #0701 HOUSING/BUILDING CODES, #AB96-243 There is a vacancy on the Board of Appeals, Housing/Building Codes Committee. It is recommended that Gary A. Pod be appointed to fill the vacancy. Mayor Lynn Horton stated when she presented the Neighborhood Enforcement proposal to Council one of the goals identified was to expand the city's Board of Appeals, Housing/Building Codes in order to include a neighborhood element to what has previously been an all technical group. Gary Pod has been very active in neighborhood issues as well as the Neighborhood Blockwatch Program and she believes he will be a good addition to this board. She also believes he will bring an element to the board that will round out the membership and give a better perspective of the full needs of the City. She urged Council to confirm Mr. Pod's appointment. Public comment - none. Mr. Neville stated he met Mr. Pod at several Neighborhood Information Network meetings and he would describe him as a "straight shooter". M/S/C/U(Neville/Montgomery) to appoint Gary A. Pod to the Board of Appeals, Housing/Building Codes Committee. 7B - REAPPOINTMENT OF ROBERT D. KENNEDY TO THE BREMERTON HOUSING AUTHORITY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS. #AB96-244 Housing Authority Board of Commissioner Robert D. Kennedy's term is expiring. It is recommended he be reappointed to another term. Mayor Lynn Horton stated Mr. Kennedy has served on the Bremerton Housing Authority Board for a considerable amount of time. Generally, she tries to funnel people through a couple of terms and then bring in new membership, but in this situation we are trying #0788 TAPE #1418 City Council Reg. Mtg. October 30, 1996 Page 5 of 15 Minutes to have the Housing Authority be more proactive in looking at either new construction for housing or to do more in the community than simply be managers of Westpark and the Section 8 Program. The Kitsap consolidated Housing Authority is probably on the cutting edge of working with low income housing, trying to either erect new construction or finding new avenues for those in the low income category to find housing. She believes Mr. Kennedy is on board with that philosophy to help more people into home ownership and to look at quality housing for low income populations. She urged council to confirm Mr. Kennedy's reappointment to the Bremerton Housing Authority Board. Public comment - none. Mr. MeConnell pointed out Mr. Kennedy has served 30 years on the Housing Authority Board. He appreciated having Mr. Kennedy's biography included in the documentation and was quite impressed with his involvement within the community. Mr. Montqomer~ noted he has been attending the Bremerton Housing Authority Board meetings and he agrees that Mr. Kennedy has done a fine job serving on that board. And, all of the Board members work together as one coercive group in understanding the problems and in directing the Housing Authority management. M/S/C/U(McConnell/Huff-Menees) to confirm the reappointment of Robert D. Kennedy to the Bremerton Housing Authority Board of Commissioners. 7C - DECLARATION OF SURPLUS PROPERTY AT 1312 LAKEHURST DRIVE, ~AB96-245 Title to property at 1312 Lakehurst Drive was received in August as a result of an LID foreclosure for assessments in the 1992 Lakehurst Drive LID. The parcel is 200' x 300', abutting Lakehurst Drive, with no improvements. A parcel map is attached. It is recommended to surplus the parcel to allow development and return to tax roles. Proceeds from the sale would remain in the LID Guaranty Fund. Assessed value for 1997 is $21,230. The property is of marketable size, and no special restrictions of sale or negotiated sales are recommended. Ian Sievers, city Attorney, stated this was a foreclosure lot that resulted in the deeding of the property in lieu of pursuing that foreclosure action. The site is a marketable size; therefore, it does not require a negotiated sale or restrictions on the sale. The assessed value will not be the fair market value and prior to it being put out for bid a short form appraisal will be obtained and used as the minimum price. The sale of the site will be #0910 TAPE #1418 City Council Reg. October 30, 1996 Page 6 of 15 Mtg. Minutes advertised in the newspaper, the surrounding property owners will be action does not succeed in getting a will re-evaluate the process. site will be posted and notified by mail. If that fair market price, the City Public comment - none. Mr. Overson pointed out the site is approximately 1.5 acres and the assessed value at $21,120. He questioned if there was something unknown to Council about the site that would justify the lower assessed value considering the location of the site? Mr. sievers stated from talking with a neighboring property owner the front part of the subject property is swampy or wetlands and may create some difficulties in developing the property. M/S/C/U(Overson/Neville) to declare the property at 1312 Lakehurst Drive surplus, and authorize sale under BMC 2.78.030 by sealed bid, without restriction. 7D - BUDGET ADJUSTMENT, SHELTER PLUS CARE GRANT, #AB96-246 The City of Bremerton received a $596,400 grant in January of 1995 from HUD under the Shelter Plus Care Program to provide alcohol/drug free housing for people who are chemically addicted. The sponsor and primary provider for the project is Agape. When the 1996 budget was prepared, we allocated $20,000 from the grant to be spent this year. The program has been extremely successful, and to date, has spent $70,000. A budget adjustment is necessary to cover the dollars that have been spent. Debbie Peavler-Stewart, Department Of community Development, stated she had nothing more to add and would standby for any questions Council may have regarding this issue. Public comment - none. Mr. Overson pointed out the grant amount is $596,400, but the Budget Adjustment proposes adjusting $85,000 to meet a $105,000 debt. He questioned what about the rest of the $596,400. Rich Hanna, Acting City Clerk, explained the Shelter Plus Care Grant was a multiple year grant and what they have attempted to do by budgeting the more conservative number is to avoid inappropriately inflating the City's annual operating budget. There was no expectation that the entire grant would be executed in any single fiscal year. The original appropriation of $20,000 was based on a slow start in 1995, but during the course of the program, in financial terms, is now moving more quickly than anticipated when the original budget was executed. Mr. Overson stated then in the following four year budgets that will be broken into approximately $105,000 each year. Mr. Hanna stated Mr. Overson was correct. #0987 TAPE #1418 city Council Reg. Mtg. October 30, 1996 Page 7 of 15 Minutes M/S/C/U(Montgomery/Huff-Menees) to approve budget adjustment. 7E - DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 1997 CDBG/HOME RECOM/~ENDATIONS BY THE CITIZEN ADVIBORY COMMITTEEt #AB96-247 The City of Bremerton will receive an estimated $550,000 in Community Development Block Grant funds for 1997 from HUD. The city also has available approximately $430,930 in HOME funds. The City staff has reviewed the applications for HUD compliance. The citizen Advisory Committee has read all of the CDBG applications, interviewed the applicants, and are making the attached recommendations. The HOME funds that are listed as "to be determined", are anticipated to be utilized for a large project, potentially in the Smith Cove area to create home ownership opportunities. A request for letters of interest was advertised, and are due in our office by 10/31/96. The Kitsap County Administration funds are part of the Consortium Agreement between the City and County. CRC submitted the only CHDO application. The staff recommends approval of this project. Mayor Lynn Horton thanked the Citizen Advisory Committee members Deborah Jackson, Drake Evans and Cheryl Kincer, who spent many hours working on this project for the City. The Committee's recommendation is given only after serious consideration was given to each application. Debbie Peavler-Btewart, Department Of Community Development, stated the process for making the CDBG recommendation began prior to July of this year with the Neighborhood Development staff consisting of Marylyn Waibel and herself, Mayor Horton, Don Pratt, Director of Community Development, City Council and local organizations, working together to determine the local policies for use of CDBG funds. The Policy Plan, which outlines the Federal Rules, local policies and rating criteria, was approved by the City Council on August 7, 1996. During the September 4th City Council meeting, the City Council appointed Drake Evans, Cheryl Kincer and Deborah Jackson to the Citizen's Advisory committee, which is charged with recommending activities to be funded under the CDBG program. The city received 36 applications requesting funding. She and Marylyn Waibel also thank the Citizens Advisory Committee for the time and effort they put into this process. Deborah Jackson, member of the Citizen's Advisory Committee, stated she was pleased to present the Committee's recommendations for distribution of funds received under the 1997 Community Development Block Grant Program. The recommendation meets requirements of the CDBG Program and to the greatest extent possible to the procedures outlined in the Policy. As stated, 36 applications were received, TAPE #1418 city Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes October 30, 1996 Page 8 of 15 which were separated into different categories Public/Human Services, Housing, Capital and Economic Development, Planning and Administration. The amount of funds available in each category were substantially less than the amount requested. Ms. Jackson identified the following categories, requested amounts and CDBG available funds: Public/Human Services: 16 applications were received requesting $314,032/ available CDBG funds in the amount of $85,000. Housinq: five applications were received requesting $480,892/ available CDBG funds in the amount of $165,000. Capital and Economic requesting $486,160/ $192,500. DeveloDment: 13 applications were received available CDBG funds in the amount of Planninq And Administration: 4 applications were received requesting $145,080/ available CDBG funds in the amount of $110,000. Making the decision as to which activities to fund was extremely difficult. All of the applicants provide important services to the low and moderate income persons in Bremerton. The Committee's recommendation is based primarily on the rating criteria outlined in the Policy Plan; however, they felt additional factors not included in the rating system should be considered, such as the consequences if funding was not allocated and funding available from other sources. She hoped the City Council recognized the effort of the Committee and approve the recommendation as presented. The following individuals, representing various agencies, thanked the city for considering their agency receive funding: Marie Jones, Executive Director of Kitsap Youth Services; Linda Kroum, Executive Director of the YWCA A.L.I.V.E. Program; Pastor Larry Robertson, Community Resource Center, Kathy Enqle, Director of Big Brother Big Sisters; Julie Pounds, Chuckwagon Senior Nutrition Program; Barbara Malioh, Director Kitsap Community Health Centers; Ruth Deam, Bremerton Foodline; Jill Robinson, Peninsula Services; Ellen Epstein, RMH Services; Diane Bradshaw, ILMH Services; Martha Westcott, Kitsap Sexual Assault Center; The following individuals, representing various agencies, expressed their appreciation for being considered for CDBG funding, but were not recommended and how that could impact the Bremerton community: Kate Borstad, Manager of the Kitsap County Historical Museum; Helen Achterman, Executive Director Literacy Council of Kitsap County; Phil Drouin, KCAP Board Member, regarding emergency Housing TAPE #1418 city Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes October 30, 1996 Page 9 of 15 funding; Reverend Rod Smith, speaking on behalf of KCAP's request for emergency housing funding; Latz7 Eyer, Executive Director KCAP (regarding emergency housing funding; Riki Jacobs, Supervisor of Crisis clinic Of Kitsap County. Mr. M¢Connell asked if the estimated available funds had to go in the specific areas as listed? Ms. Pearler-Stewart explained the amount identified for Public/Human Services is the maximum that is eligible, which is 15%. Mr. McConnell pointed out $165,000 is shown for housing services and questioned if he understood correctly that did not have to all remain in that particular category? Ms. Pearler-Stewart explained those funds could go into the Capital category, but not the Planning category. Mr. McConnell questioned the reasons the KCAP Emergency Housing services was listed under Public/Human Services instead of the Housing category? Ms. Pearler-Stewart explain KCAP has two different projects, one is for the transitional emergency shelter service portion and is a Public/Human Service. The second KCAP application is for a weatherization program, which is eligible under the Housing category. Mr. M¢Connell stated he had a concern with the recommended allocation for the Admiral Theater under the Capital and Economic Development category. He did not understand how the Admiral Theater was funded for $7,500 since that facility is not designed to assist low income or the needy. He believes once the facility is completed the middle to wealthy people will be the only ones to enjoy those activities. In addition, the Admiral Theater Foundation just received a $750,000 HUD Grant through the City and he believed the $7,500 could have been placed somewhere else for a better use. And, at the appropriate time he wanted to make the motion removing the $7,500 out of the Capital and Economic Development category and place it into the KCAP Housing services. Ms. Pearler-Stewart stated those funds cannot be moved into the Housing category. She stressed the Admiral Theater application is considered under slum and blight category, which is not a low income category. Mr. McConnell stated based on earlier comments by Ms. Peavler-Stewart he understood the amount listed in the categories do not have to stay within that group. Ms. Pearler- Stewart explained the amount of dollars in the Capital and Housing portions have to stay within their category. The total amount available in Public/Human Services is $82,500. Mr. McConnell stated he felt the Pacific Avenue Child Care or the basketball court for the school would be a better place to spend those dollars than the Admiral Theater, i.e., giving young people something to do besides getting in to trouble. He doubted the people going to the Admiral Theater would be the kind to be in trouble, so we don't need to spend the extra money on them. Mrs. Huff-Menees stated Mr. McConnell's comments about the Admiral theater serving only the upper and middle class is a very TAPE #1418 City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes October 30, 1996 Page 10 of 15 inaccurate assumption and she was deeply offended by it. At this point, the proposals/programming for the Theater is not known; however their intent is to serve every need within this community and any group that comes to them with a request for programming. TAPE #1419 Mr. M¢Connell stated he believed Mrs. Huff-Menees' response to his comments was inappropriate according to Council's rules. As far as the Admiral Theater is concerned, it is inappropriate to hold that up over more needy projects. Mrs. Huff-Menees requested Mayor Horton to comment on that particular funding category. Mayor Lynn Horton pointed out there were inaccuracies in Mr. McConnell's comments. The Theater foundation plans include housing a children's theater group, establish a puppet museum, and planning programming specifically for children. She believes the Theater Foundation is planning to provide community activities that are broader than reaching just the wealthy segment of the community. The Bremerton Symphony, which is a community symphony, has already booked programs to be held at the Admiral. Also, community events covering the first three months of their opening have been scheduled, and will not be restricted to people of higher incomes. She reminded Council the theater is in an area of slum and blight and one of the prime criteria in that category is to alleviate slum and blight. Mr. M¢Connell pointed out when the Admiral Theater Foundation came before Council initially requesting funding they stated, if their request was approved, they would not come back to the City asking for "taxpayer" money. In his opinion, the Foundation has come back again and again to the City requesting funds. Mayor Horton explained $75,000 was used to purchase the Admiral Theater building, which makes it a City owned building. The City contracted with the Admiral theater Foundation to refurbish and operate the facility. The HUD Loan Grant, as referred to by Mr. McConnell, is HUD money and one of the prime directives of HUD money is to alleviate slum and blight; and the site is in a designated area to relieve slum and blight. Mr. Huff-Menees conveyed her apology to Mr. McConnell and emphasized she respects his views with respect to different funding allocations, she also has some differing views on the recommendations, but her comments were addressing the uses of the theater, which was of most concern to her. With respect to the process, it is one that arouses a mix of emotions because as always there are not enough dollars to meet all the needs and critical programs. She thanked all of the agencies providing public services and the work they do within the community. She believes there are opportunities to meet some of the needs that were not addressed with the Committee recommendations. Having served on the County's Block Grant allocating process, she is very aware how TAPE #1419 City Council Reg. October 30, 1996 Page 11 of 15 Mtg. Minutes difficult it is to make decisions as to which agencies are funded. some times there is the assumption that because the Advisory Committee worked so hard that when it reaches this point there should just be a blanket approval of all of their recommendations. She stressed it is the Council's responsiblity, as a policy board and legislator function, to review any staff recommendations very thoroughly. She did not believe the public wished Council to rubber stamp this process any more than any other staff recommendation. One area of great concern to her that she wants to address is KCAP's Emergency Housing program. Based on information that she has had access to over the past years, she is very aware of what homelessness is in Kitsap County. She does not believe Kitsap County as a whole has a good awareness of the degree of homelessness in the County. Because homelessness is a significant issue, it affects most of the other social agencies that have been addressed during this discussion. Not addressing the homeless issue puts a greater burden on many of the other agencies that are requesting funding from the City. She believes there are some alternative ways to provide needed funding and she will be bringing Council some recommendations to provide additional dollars for KCAP in the emergency housing category. During this process last year, Council recommended any additional CDBG dollars received by the City be allocated to the KCAP Housing Program, which did happen. She noted such action could be taken again this year and look at other opportunities. She was disappointed that the Crisis Clinic was not recommended for funding. As pointed out, this also is an agency that is on a 24-hour day basis meeting needs within the community. She has to assume the Advisory Committee had reasons for making those recommendations. She reviewed some of the applications and the scoring standards used and she still did not fully understand that decision. She thanked City staff members for the improved application process. Overall, she believes the City, citizen Advisory Committee and all the applying agencies are all to be commended. Mr. Neville expressed deep remorse for the agencies/organizations that did not receive a recommendation for funding. He expressed his thanks to the Citizen Advisory Committee for their hard work and dedication and City staff members Marylyn Waibel and Debbie Peavler-Steward in their handling the new process. If additional funds do become available, he looks forward to being able to direct them toward those services that did not get funded through this recommendation. Mr. Mcconnell stated he would not oppose the recommendation based on his having a disagreement over one item. President Law stated he believed the public could observe the City Council, as a team, will support additional funding, if it becomes #0358 TAPE #1419 City Council Reg. October 30, 1996 Page 12 of 15 Mtg. Minutes available, to the areas of most concern to the Council. Mr. Overson thanked the Citizen Advisory Committee for their effort in bringing forth a recommendation to Council. On a more positive note, through the funding allocations a lot of people will be helped in 1997, as a result of this process. He is confident the funds that have been distributed are in fact well distributed and will be well used to better serve our community. M/S/C/U(Overson/McConnell) to approve the Citizen's Advisory Committee recommendations. 9A - PUBLIC HEARING ON REVENUE SOURCES FOR THE 1997 BUDGET, ~AB96- 25O The City is required by RCW 84.55.120 to hold a public hearing on revenue sources for the coming year's budget, including consideration of possible increases in property tax revenues. Rich Hanna, Acting City Clerk, pointed out an attachment to the Agenda Bill reflecting his assumptions, as City Treasurer and his staff's, in the operation of the revenue side of the General Fund Budget. Most of the assumptions are driven by the changes in the City's assessed valuation, population and changes in the Consumer Price Index since the preparation of the 1996 budget. Public comment - none. Mr. Overson asked if the U.S. Navy was aware that their B&O Tax percentage had been increased by 230% for 19977 Mr. Hanna stated yes, negotiations between the City and U.S. Navy over Utility rates have been ongoing in excess of a year. Those negotiations will result in a fairly substantial increase to the Navy's Utility rates. What is driving a large portion of that change is historically the Navy had a contract under which only the current operating costs of the Utility were billed on a month-to-month basis and the Capital portion was paid on a project-by-project basis, which was not subject to B&O Tax. By converting the Navy to an all in rate, which includes the capital component, their B&O Tax will increase by 230%. Mr. Overson congratulated Mr. Hanna on that successful negotiation effort. Mr. McConnell referenced the Wastewater B&O Tax, retail 90% of total up 5.5%, and asked 90% of what total? Mr. Hanna explained retail rate revenue represents 90% of the total revenue of the Utility. Council will be provided a much greater detail during the Budget Review process. Mr. McConnell question if "up 5.5%" means an increase? Mr. Hanna stated a 5% increase in retail rates took effect July 1, 1996. The Administration will be bringing to Council a proposal for an increase in retail Wastewater Rates of 3% TAPE #1419 City Council Reg. October 30, 1996 Page 13 of 15 Mtg. Minutes to be effective on January 1, 1997. Mr. McConnell questioned if he recalled correctly that a 5% increase would be implemented annually on July 17 Mr. Hanna stated no, there was a one time 5% rate in July 1996 and their analysis projected from that point forward a 3% rate increase each January 1. Mr. McConnell stated then the 5.5% doesn't mean anything as far as rate increase. Mr. Hanna stated it does because the 5% rate increase took place at mid year 1996, 2.5% will be reflected in the Utilities revenue 1997 over 1996 and the remaining three will be the next increase, which would all be an increase in 1997 over 1996 for a total of 5.5%. Mr. M¢Connell questioned if RCW 82.18 states the maximum tax increase for items under this section is 6%? In 1986, the Garbage Tax was moved out of RCW 82.16 into RCW 82.18, which removed it from the section that allowed any amount to be charged into a section that limited the rate of tax. He believes the State Legislature had a reason for moving it from "16" into "18". He talked with members of the legislature and their comments were there was no intent to leave the Garbage Tax where a higher rate could be charged. Ian Sievers, City Attorney, stated there is a controversy over what the Legislature intended by that recodification of Garbage Service from 82.16 to 82.18. The Association Of Washington Cities took the position that it wasn't intended to affect the taxability of those services by cities, but simply reorganize that under its own chapter. SA- ORDINANCE (FIRST READING) LEVYING PROPERTY TAXES FOR COLLECTION IN 1997t #AB96-248 The City's property taxes are levied on an annual basis through passage of an ordinance. The proposed ordinance will enact a general property tax levy at the statutory rate limit and special levies for Emergency Medical Services and Bond Redemption at rates previously authorized by the voters. Rich Hanna, Acting City Clerk, noted a comparison for Property Tax Levies 1996 vs 1997 was included in the documentation provided to Council. That comparison shows the changes in all three components of this equation: Assessed Valuation changing by 3.09%; total Tax Rate changed by 0.28%; and the City's Tax Revenue will change by 3.56% between 1996 and 1997. Public comment - none. Mr. Mcconnell stated he believed the reason the 911 Ballot measure failed was due to its impact on property taxes. He views this proposal as a double hit because of the massive reappraisal coming out of the county that will increase property values. He felt the reappraisal of properties would increase the income to the City due to the higher evaluations of properties. There has to be some way that taxes, such as through emergency levies, can be generated in TAPE #1419 City Council Reg. October 30, 1996 Page 14 of 15 Mtg. Minutes order to service the residents properly. He did not support taking the 106% tax increase. Mr. Hanna explained the proposed ordinance does not levy property taxes to what is commonly referred to as the 106% limit. The City's authority to levy property taxes is limited by two different statutes, the 106% levy limit, which states the City's property tax cannot grow at a rate greater than 6% per year. The other constraint that is imposed by statute, and is operative this year, sets an absolute maximum on the City's property tax rate. The City is at that maximum rate and that is why the rate is growing by only 0.28% and Property Tax revenue is only growing by 3.58% this year. Mr. Mcconnell stated now that the library bonds are paid off it is unfortunate that the people won't see any decrease in their property taxes. Mr. Neville referenced the memorandum provided by Mr. Hanna, which was very informative, and asked that it be read for the benefit of the public. Mr. Hanna comDlied with Mr. Neville's request. Mr. Neville pointed out Council will be starting the 1997 Budget review process on November 5, and encouraged members of the public to attend the various Study Sessions, which are open to the public. M/S/C(Montgomery/Neville) to approve ordinance on first reading, levying Municipal Taxes against all the taxable property within the City limits of Bremerton for the year 1996, and approving the assessment roll made by the Assessor of Kitsap County, therefore to be collected in the year 1997.

The proposed ordinance provides for the amendment to the current list of commonly known parks of the City of Bremerton, adding additional City-owned properties to the list which properties have been utilized by the City of Bremerton and its citizens for parks. Jod¥ Wroblewski, Assistant Parks and Recreation Director, stated this proposal is really a housekeeping measure that would amend the Parks Protection Ordinance to include a number of properties that were not on the original list and to delete one property that is no #1057 TAPE #1419 City Council Reg. October 30, 1996 Page 15 of 15 Mtg. Minutes longer under Park and Recreation's auspices, and to make editorial corrections. Del Knauss, Bremerton resident, urged Council to support the proposal as presented and thanked Mr. McConnell for helping the process get started. He was particularly pleased to see the S.P. "PAT" CAREY VISTA" added to the ordinance. Mr. Overson questioned if the Bremerton Board Walk was all on City property or was some of it on Port of Bremerton property? And, by adding it to the ordinance would it put an onus on any kind of proposed changes to that area encompassed by the proposed Sinclair Landing project? Mayor Lynn Horton stated she did not believe it would affect the Sinclair Land project. Mr. Overson's observation about land ownership is correct, although there is more to the park than just the boardwalk. Mr. Overson questioned then by default the City could not put any Port of Bremerton property under this ordinance? Ian Sievers, City Attorney, stated it is not the Port's or city's property. The Port of Bremerton has a Harbor Management Agreement with the Department Of natural Resources. Mr. Overson asked if Rota Vista Park is City property? Mr. Sievers stated yes. M/S/C/U(Neville/Montgomery) to approve ordinance on first reading, amending Chapter 13.12 of the Bremerton Municipal Code to add additional City-owned properties to the list of parks provided for in the City's Parks Protection Ordinance.
