Mr. Colvin echoed comments about the excellent response by the
ci ty' s crews in keeping the streets passable and safer for the
citizens of Bremerton. He reminded everyone of the District #1
Neighborhood meeting on November 21. Information regarding Tax
Exemption Programs for senior citizens will be available at that
meeting. He also complimented the Cable Access TV crew for a job
well done. It was his hope that some organization would take on
the task of decorating empty windows in the downtown area for the
holiday season, and offered his assistance in that endeavor.
Mr. Law reported the District #3 Neighborhood meeting was canceled
due to snow and issues and concerns will be addressed at the
December 17th meeting.
MAYOR'S REPORT
Mayor Lynn Horton read a news release she received just prior to
the Council meeting: liThe Washington state Ferries Director and
CEO Paul Greene today announced Dakota Creek Industries Inc., of
Anacortes is the apparent successful proposer to build two state of
the art passenger only vessels for the ferry fleet." Mayor Horton
noted the proposed boats would be built with the capability of
creating a lessor wake at a speed of 30-34 knots through Rich
Passage than the current passenger only vessels at 11-12 knots.
And, the speed of the boats would allow 30-minute crossings (45-
minute turn around time) between Bremerton and Seattle. This is
important news to Bremerton since the first boat is slated for the
Bremerton/Seattle route. The cost of the two boats is $19.4
million dollars.
PUBLIC RECOGNITION
Wayne Olsen, Bremerton resident, encouraged attendance at the
District #1 Neighborhood meeting on November 21, 7:00 P.M., at the
Sheridan Park Recreation Center. The guests speakers at that
meeting will be Mayor Lynn Horton and representatives of the
Sinclair Landing Association.
Carol Atkinson, Bremerton Main Street Association, announced Santa
will arrive downtown on December 6th, which will include a
Christmas Tree lighting ceremony, photographs with Santa will be
available with a donation to The Sun Bell Ringer Fund, and music
will be provided by the Bremerton High School Choir. This event is
sponsored by Bremerton Main Street Association, The Sun, and
Americorp. On December 7 the Swing City Committee and North Pole
Connection are sponsoring a Puppet Show by the Evergreen Children's
Theater, at 123 Pacific at 2:30 P.M., Caroler's will perform at 2nd
and Pacific, and at 3:00 P.M., the Bremerton High School Knights
Marching Band and Drill Team will perform. She noted the "Welcome
To Bremerton" was removed from the mural at 2nd an Washington
because it was not what was originally planned and will be replaced

as soon as the weather permits.
Kal Leichman, Bremerton resident, stated he attended a meeting on
"parking on planting strips II at Lutheran Memorial Church where he
asked a city official the dollar amount for the liability for
people injuring themselves on planting strips. At that time, the
ci ty official did not have an answer. Now, he is asking the
question what is the liability for the past five years for injury
due to planting strips. He wants to make the point that if the
liability is great he would support stopping vehicles from parking
on planting strips. If the liability is little or nearly nothing,
then he believes the city should stop any proposed action not
allowing parking on planting strips.
Wayne Olsen, Chairman of the Bremerton Planning Commission,
apologized to anyone who attempted to attend their November 19th
meeting, which was canceled due to road conditions. That meeting
has been rescheduled for December 3, 6:00 P.M., in the City Council
Chambers.
7A - ORDINANCE NO. 4576 (SECOND READINGl REDUCING THE B&O TAX ON
GARBAGE AND REFUSE BUSINESS. #AB96-25B
Charlie Brown, Bremerton resident, stated it appears the proposal
would decrease the tax by 1% to 17%. His understanding under state
law is the tax is limited to .2 of 1%; however, he asked if the
City Attorney or Mayor could provide a clearer explanation. He
believes the Mayor and City Council take a Oath Of Office to uphold
the laws of the state of Washington. If there is an interpretation
of the law on this issue, it should be in favor of the taxpayers,
not city government.
Ian Sievers, City Attorney, stated the Association of Washington
cities conducted a survey in 1995 and he recalled that 90% of the
cities are paying at between 5-10%. There are some other larger
jurisdictions that are also up in the neighborhood of 15-17%. It
may be seen as a matter of interpretation, but the City believes
the level of taxation in Bremerton for the garbage utility is
legal.
Mr. Overson stated he personally believes collection of that tax is
in the best interest of the citizens of the City. City services
cost money and this money has to come in to provide services. He
referenced a news article in The Sun stating Brem-Air is moving out
of the City and asked if this changed the city's tax situation?
The implication was that by their moving out the City would
potentially lose some income. Mayor Lynn Horton stated with Brem-
Air leaving the City will lose some income from their corporate
enterprise beyond city limits, but they will still be a business in
the city of Bremerton and all appropriate taxes will be collected.
TAPE #1422
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes
November 20, 1996
Page 4 of 13
Mr. Overson asked if the loss of income would result in a reduction
of employees? Mavor Horton stated no.
Mr. McConnell stated according to some figures he received from the
Treasurer's Office in 1994-l995-1996, each year the tax was reduced
by 1%, the city generated more income than the prior year based on
that tax. At the prior Council meeting, the City Treasurer stated
the City would lose $43,000 for each 1%. He disagreed with Mr.
sievers's explanation; however, he would support the motion because
a 1% reduction was better than none. Mayor Horton stated if you
look at an isolated year that is correct, the income coming in
exceeds the money the City would lose by ramping down the 1% tax,
but what you have to realize is the city has been ramping down the
tax each consecutive year and it is cumulative, i.e. 4.5% times the
$43,000. In answer to Mr. McConnell's question it appears people
are using more garbage service. She noted for the most part the
rates have been frozen in the City of Bremerton. Rich Hanna, City
Treasurer, stated as Mayor Horton indicated, this is the third year
the rate has been ramped down. The revenue from this tax to the
city has continued to trend upward even though the rate has been
reduced. The garbage business is obviously expanding in the City
at a rate greater than the rate of reduction in taxes. The point
that he made last week was if all things were held equal, the
dollar affect of the 1% reduction of the tax rate was approximately
$43,000. Had the rate been left at 18% that line item in the 1997
budget would be approximately that much larger than as presented.
Mavor Horton pointed out the City made a commitment to ramp that
tax down each year until a reasonable rate is reached.
She emphasized the tax base in Bremerton is somewhat limited due to
the fact the City does not receive any tax revenue from the federal
installation located in Bremerton.
#0612 M/S/C/U(Huff-Menees/Montgomery) to pass Ordinance No. 4576 on
second reading, reducing the B&O Tax on the garbage and refuse
businesses, and amending Chapter 5.02 of the Bremerton Municipal
Code.

Pursuant to State statute, the City is required to have on public
TAPE #1422

hearing regarding the proposed 1997 budget.
Mayor Horton stated the proposed 1997 looks very similar to the
1996 budget with the primary difference being the cost of living
increases for personnel, supplies and services. Some minor changes
are being recommended to allow the Administration to function more
efficiently internally, but for the most part she is not looking to
bring on new additional staffing in the General Fund; however there
is a new staffing level primarily in the Police Department
Community Resources Division. In terms of public works and
projects, the City received a grant to renovate the existing
Evergreen park in 1997 and she hoped to acquire and renovate the
old Hadden School site. There are several projects in the
Wastewater and Water Utility, with the primary one in Wastewater
being the Callow Avenue Basin Phase 2.
In regard to the Hotel/Motel Tax, she emphasized those funds are to
directly provide revenues to encourage tourism. In the case of
Bremerton Main street, their mission is not to attract tourism, but
to work on downtown issues. However, the reason why they are funded
at all is their sponsorship of the Blackberry Festival. The
Chamber Of Commerce may fall into the same situation, but 2-3 years
ago when the visitor and Convention Bureau (VCB) got out of the
visitor information side of the VCB the Chamber of Commerce stepped
in and has directed and staffed a visitor Information booth on the
waterfront; therefore, they are involved in the visitor information
process. The Naval Museum has been funded for many years and in
reality the museum is basically the City's Naval Museum in that the
Navy loans the City the artifacts and in turn contracts out the
running of the museum. She supports funding the museum; however a
question has been raised about funding the museum, which needs to
be addressed at some point. She assumes that question involves
both the Naval Museum and Kitsap Historical Museum, although there
are some issues that will be brought to the State Legislature to
get changed in 1997. She recommended funding the Admiral Theater
because the building belongs to the City. If the Admiral Theater
cannot not repay its loan, the City has made an agreement with HUD
that the building will default to them. She did not believe it was
in the best interest of the City to have a City owned building
default to HUD; therefore, it was important to fund that activity
as well as to talk about the affect it can have to revitalize the
downtown, such as has been done in the city of Olympia. In
reference to her funding recommendation for an RV Park feasibility
study, many people, including the Executive Board of the VCB, have
commented that we don't have any RV facilities in this area. Lots
of people come into the community with recreational vehicles,
especially now that we have Pendergast Regional Sport Complex;
however, they are unable to find appropriate over night
accommodations. She did not see this as conflicting with hotel

city Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes
November 20, 1996
Page 6 of 13
revenues because it is an entirely different market. The one issue
that may be a bit controversial is the lack of funding for the VCB.
As she explained to council at the time she submitted her
preliminary budget, she had not met with the Director of the VCB
and there were some long outstanding issues that needed to be
addressed. She did meet with the VCB Board earlier in the summer,
but felt those outstanding issues needed to be brought to the new
director. She did eventually have a positive meeting with the new
director where those issues were discussed. She pointed out the
Hotel/Motel Tax area is one that council has never passed without
changing. She was quite confident that would be the case during
this budget process. She noted there are funds in reserve if
Council chooses to fund the VCB or to do something else.
Mayor Horton described how Dan Miller, Project Manager for the
City, will work with Kitsap Transit on construction of the new
Transportation Plaza. Mr. Miller is presently working with Kitsap
Transit because the City needs to make sure whatever is done on the
Ferry Terminal site coordinates with whatever is done in the rest
of the downtown. If the City is involved with a parking structure,
she wants to make sure the city has management oversight over that
project.
Georqe Bieda, representing the Bremerton Naval Museum, gave
background information on the formation of the Naval Museum and the
role it plays today in serving both the military/retired military
and tourists. He also expressed their appreciation of the funding
proposed for 1997.
Grant Griffin, Executive Director of the visitor and Convention
Bureau (VCB) expressed his devastation when he learned that the VCB
was not recommended for funding. He re-emphasized the fact that
the Hotel/Motel Tax is specifically for tourism and the VCB 's
single and primary mission is tourism. This tax is support by
members of their organization, who feel strongly that they would
like to see VCB put the effort forward to continue operating. He
heard that there were several reasons why the VCB might not be
funded, one being they basically did the same job as the Bremerton
Area Chamber of Commerce, which is not true in that the Chamber is
more "business" oriented. The VCB books conventions and tour
groups and operates a County-wide visitor and Information Center
where they see thousands of people on a monthly basis. He
emphasized those activities are not done, with the exception on a
local basis, by the Chamber. The VCB is the only full time agency
devoted strictly to tourism in Kitsap County and when they get
inquiries that are germane to the City of Bremerton that is shared
with the Chamber of Commerce. As Mayor Horton mentioned, he met
with her several weeks ago to discuss past experiences that are
being carried forward to this day. He pledged to Mayor Horton that
TAPE #1422
City council Reg. Mtg. Minutes
November 20, 1996
Page 7 of 13
the VCB' s support would be there for Bremerton and yes, some
mistakes were probably made in the past, but he wanted to put the
past behind and move forward, which cannot be done without funding.
He found it odd that Bremerton would choose not to fund the VCB
when all other municipalities and Kitsap County are funding them at
the level of 50% of the Hotel/Motel Tax.
Renee Keh1, Super 8 Motel, stated support for the VCB and Bremerton
Area Chamber of Commerce receiving Hotel/Motel Tax funding.
Rowena Jonqeward, Mid-Way Inn, stated she has seen their tourist
business drop. Three or four years ago there were larger numbers
of people coming to this area from out-of-town. She agreed the
Naval Museum is great; however, she felt strongly that they could
charge a $1.00 admittance, which would help pay their own way. she
did not feel the Hotel/Motel Tax revenue being given to either the
Chamber of Commerce or VCB was sufficient to do the job and to do
it well. She referenced Yakima and the fact that they have a VCB
and Convention Center, which became a reality because their
Hotel/Motel Tax went to promote the interests of Yakima County, not
just the city of Yakima. As a smaller scale hotel business, they
do not have the money to advertise in nationally distributed
brochures or magazines. However, her tax dollars combined with
others tax dollars given to the VCB and Chamber of Commerce can be
pooled and do the kind of advertising they need to promote their
businesses. She cannot afford to give her employees a wage
increase or maintain the property in the manner they would like to,
if they do not get people into their establishment. Not funding
the VCB is being short sighted and a disservice to this community.
Ric Raybourn, President of the Kitsap Lodging Association,
emphasized the VCB is vital to the lodging facilities in Bremerton.
with the exception of one hotel in Bremerton, these facilities do
not have on-site sales staff, which means the VCB serves as their
sales staff, i. e. providing referrals, convention leads,
educational opportunities dealing with public relations, press
releases, and marketing. wi thout a properly funded VCB these
facilities will face an uphill battle trying to diversify and move
away from their dependence on the military. He asked Council to
consider the legal and appropriate use of these dollars. The
lodging facilities that collect those taxes should be given a great
deal of consideration in their decision to distribute the
Hotel/Motel Tax funds. At this time, 48% of the Counties 1,169
guest rooms are in the City of Bremerton. He urged the City to
allot a commensurate amount of Hotel/Motel Tax dollars the city
receives to over-night tourism, which will expand the base from
which those dollars are generated. As the General Manager of the
Silverdale Hotel, he is in the business of exceeding their
customers' expectations every day and when that doesn't happen he
TAPE #1422
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes

Page 8 of 13
is in the business of going back and exceeding their expectation
and how those problems are dealt with. As the incoming President
of the VCB, he guaranteed that whatever problems existed in the
past would not continue to come between the City and the VCB to
promote tourism. Council's funding decision will greatly impact
the future of the lodging industry in the city of Bremerton and he
urged Council to listen to the concerns brought forward by those
who run the lodging businesses. He also urged Council to send a
message to not only the existing facilities that are currently
doing business in the city, but to proposed facilities, such as in
the Sinclair Landing project, that the City Council and the Mayor
truly support over night tourism in the city and that they will
show their support for new hotels coming into the area by
supporting the agency that will be charged with bringing people
into to the area to fill those lodging facilities.
Yonq Kanq, owner of Oysterbay Inn & Restaurant, stated he believes
Bremerton is a beautiful destination and lots of people can be
attracted to it, but there needs to be a concentrated effort to
promote the area. Government funding is being cut back and the
loss of revenue needs to be replaced through the promotion of
tourism to bring more people into our area.
Louis soriano, representing Bremerton Main street, stated it was
not Main Street's intent to have lots of people speaking on their
behalf at this time, but he asked those in attendance to stand up
and be recognized. He wanted to make sure Council was aware of who
serves as the Director as well as the Board members: Director -
Carol Atkinson; President - Lawrence Soriano; Vice President - Bob
Tulp; Secretary - Cheryl Mccullough; Treasurer- Ann Laubach, Dave
Boynton, Ray Clarke, Pam Martin, Rich McDonald, Emily Moshay, Susan
Peterson, Rex-Zane Rudee and Brad Smith. Mr. soriano pointed out
Main street has over 200 volunteers. He provided background
information on the formation of Main Street and the hope that some
day they will become part of the Federal Main street Association.
He emphasized Main Street's involvement, some of which include:
participating in the Downtown/Waterfront Task Force, Santa's
Arrival, st. Patrick's Day Parade, Concerts on the Boardwalk and
the Blackberry Festival. He introduced Richard Brandenberg,
Executive Director of the Port of Bremerton. Richard Brandenberq
stated he is in his fourth month as Executive Director of the Port
of Bremerton and arrived in time to experience the Blackberry
Festival, where he watched 10's of thousands of people pack the
boardwalk for that activity. The Port Marina was filled to
capacity during that event and people were making docking
reservations a year in advance so they could enj oy next year's
festival. The Concerts on the Boardwalk have been extremely
successful and the Port of Bremerton is very supportive of the
efforts of Main Street. Seattle would not be the same without a
TAPE #1422
city council Reg. Mtg. Minutes

Page 9 of 13
strong downtown organization representing other than the government
or just citizens. He views Main Street as extremely effective and
the work that goes on should be highly appreciated and recognized
not only in the city's activities support but also financial
support.
Mr. Soriano noted the Kiwanis Club was represented in the audience
in support of Main street and their involvement is through the
Blackberry Festival. Main Street requested $20,000 for support of
the Main street Office and one paid employee. He emphasized the
importance of volunteers to their organization. In past years the
city had funded Main street as follows: 1994 - $25,000; 1995 -
$20,000, 1996 $5,000. He pointed out Main street requested
$20,000, but the proposed 1997 budget shows an allocation of
$5,000. Main Street agrees that all of the organizations
recommended for funding are worthwhile, but it is interesting that
Main street does bring in 60,000 people into the Central business
District. In 1996 the city Treasurer anticipated having a $46,000
carryover, but actually had $58,000. That $58,000 has been
transferred into Fund 104 of the proposed 1997 budget. The City
Treasurer anticipates a $28,000 carryover in Fund 104 in 1997.
Main street would not be requesting $20,000 unless it was warranted
to do so, but their very existence is at stake due to loss of
members as more downtown businesses close their doors.
7C - ORDINANCE (FIRST READINGl SETTING WATER AND WASTEWATER RATES.
#AB96-263
The proposed ordinance will increase the City's retail water and
wastewater rates by an average of three percent (3%) effective
January 1, 1997. Staff analysis has demonstrated that this
increase is necessary to allow the utility to pay for current
operations, and to implement the capital improvements which are
mandated to meet environmental and water quality regulations.
Rich Hanna, City Treasurer, stated much of this information had
been presented to the City Council earlier in the year. And, he
emphasized the 3% increase would be on the fixed portion of the
bill and the reason for proposing it in that fashion was based on
the fact it will provide a more stable, predictable revenue stream
for the utility.
Russ Nickerson stated he recently learned the City offered a
variable rate for senior citizens and was concerned that
information was not publicly published. He was very interested to
know the "senior" rate and who sets them? Mr. Hanna stated the
utility does not have a "senior rate"; however, there is a below
cost of service rate provided for low income disabled and low
income seniors. Anyone wishing information on the availability of
such a rate can contact his office or the utility Customer service
TAPE #1422
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes

Page 10 of 13
Department. He pointed out the city provides information on this
reduced rate through the publishing of the adopted ordinance and
through the utility billing process.
Mr. McConnell pointed out the recent newspaper article about the
proposed rate increase left out the words "1ow income" in front of
the words "senior citizen".
Kathleen McCluskey, City Clerk, read into the record a letter
received from Bremerton resident Lauraine E. Skoka: "We the people
who wished to a attend the public hearing on rate increases protest
the proposed water/sewer rate increases. As a single person, not
qui te a senior, not disabled, but reaching those descriptions
sooner than later. Living in a community of many low income,
senior citizens and young families, which non can afford these rate
increases. I work five days a week from 7:00 AM to 4:20 PM. I
conserve water/sewer. I reuse my washing machine water, I run my
dishwasher once a week. Yet my water sewer bill is higher than my
heating bill. I can put water restrictors on faucets, limit toilet
tank waters, but I still get no credit for these items. Rates
continue to rise not just for me, but for all citizens of
Bremerton. Bremerton looks like a dying city and you put rate
increases on the people who are the hardest pressed to meet these
rates. My salary is not increased, but my living increases are.
I no longer get raises and I am approaching retirement with yet a
smaller income. I am not in favor of rate increases."
o PM
Mr. Neville asked Mr. Hanna to explain the income cut off point to
qualify for the low-income senior rate. Mr. Hanna explained it is
the same threshold to qualify for the reduction in property taxes.
Inquiries regard the reduced rate can be made to the Customer
Service staff - 478-5316. Mr. Neville stated he was happy to see
the rate increase was no longer on the volume flow, but rather on
the fixed rate, which makes it more equitable for everyone.
Mr. Colvin asked if the city had a brochure
program? Mr. Hanna stated yes, and is
utility Customer Service Department.
outlining reduced rate
available through the
Mr. Farr stated no one is happy about a rate increase, but he
firmly believes an increase of 3% and a steady small increase is
more fair and less of a shock to people than having no increase for
several years and then by necessity facing a 15-20% increase.
Switching more emphasis of the cost of billing to the fixed rate
verses the volumetric charges has been something he has been in
favor for a long. He tired to gather support to go to basically or
nearly all at a fixed rate. Mr. Hanna explained the benefits to
the utility of being in a more stable position and able to predict
TAPE #1422
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes
November 20, 1996
Page 11 of 13
income, but the benefits there are just like that for the consumer
in that it takes the spikes out of the billing. He questioned for
clarification if the overall billing is a 3% increase? Mr. Hanna
stated yes. As he mentioned in his opening comments, in the case
of water currently only 23% of revenue comes from the fixed
portion. To do a 3% increase in our total water rate revenue,
we're actually increasing the fixed portion of the bill by 13%. To
quantify that in terms of dollars for a city resident that would
amount to 27 cents per month and for a County resident it would be
39% per month of rate increase. Mr. Farr noted the City receives
a lot of bad press over water and sewer bills, and asked if there
were figures available as to what other surrounding communities are
charging for their sewer and water services? Mr. Hanna stated he
could not quote what other water/sewer districts or cities are
charging in terms of dollars, but relative to other major utility
purveyors in the County Bremerton has the lowest water rates
(excepting a very small district within the County). At the same
moment, the City's rates on sewer are the highest in the County.
He anticipates other wastewater purveyors within the county will be
catching up with City rates.
Mr. Colvin asked if he understood correctly that the city's
wastewater rate is tied to water usage? Mr. Hanna stated yes, as
mentioned the water and sewer bills are composed of a heavy fixed
portion and a portion based on water consumption. Both the water
and sewer bills volume is measured through the water meter. Mr.
Colvin stated he too favors smaller incremental increases. He
asked for an example of the average water/sewer bill? Mr. Hanna
explained an average water bill for a single family residence in
the City would be $10.00 per month and an average sewer bill would
be about $35.00 per month. Mr. Colvin questioned the average fixed
portion? Mr. Hanna stated that varies, i.e., for a single family
residence the fixed portion of a water bill is presently $1.98 per
month and that would increase by 27 cents ($2.25 per month).
Obviously, larger establishments would have a proportionally higher
bill.
Mr. McConnell asked if the surcharge attached to the water bill is
based on the volume of the water or the dollar amount of the bill?
Mr. Hanna explained the sewer bill is composed of two components -
a fixed portion on a single family residence bill is presently
$4.49 per month, which would increase to $5.30. Then, there is a
volumetric portion and there is no proposal to change that rate of
$3.70 per hundred cubic feet of water consumed. Mr. McConnell
questioned the rate increase that came about as a result of the
lawsuit relating to the sewer treatment plant? Mr. Hanna stated
all of the rate increases that have taken place on the City's
utility rates are a function of all the costs of running the
utility, which would include capital renewals or replacements,
