COUNCIL MEMBER REPORTS
Mr. Estes stated two weeks ago he requested anyone in the City who
would like to get involved in the Spaying/Neutering Program contact
him - no one has as of this date. If he does not receive any
inquiries, he is going to pursue the project anyway because it is
something that is greatly needed in both the City and County. In
regard to a recent newspaper article on the possible change in form
of government for the City, he pointed out that the nine Council
members do not always agree on everything, however, they are all
very serious about carrying out City business and doing a good job;
and, he would defend his fellow Council members in public or
private as to their dedicated efforts.
Mr. Waibel reported he attended the Armed Forces Queen's Pageant,
Friday, May 11, which was a spectacular event. He announced TCI

He noted all the Queen's candidates would have made excellent
representatives for Bremerton and he complimented them on their
public speaking abilities. And, he congratulated Wednesday
Magazine for their coverage of the Queen's Pageant and Children's
parade. On Saturday, May 12~ he attended Kitsap County's night at
the Mariner's Game - there was a great turnout for this event. He
noted Bremerton Central Lions Club's name was on the Reader board
for up to 20-30 times longer than any others shown that evening.
The Armed Forces Day Court also attended the Mariner's Game. He
reminded everyone that on Saturday, May 19, the Armed Forces Parade
starts at 10:00 AM, with a Lions Club Pancake Breakfast kicking off
at 7:30 AM. Mr. Waibel noted the parade has over 100 entries, and
for those who have not personally seen the Armed Forces Float it
will also be in the parade along with the Armed Forces Day Court.
Finally, he reminded everyone to exercise their voting rights on
Tuesday, May 22 - School Bond Levy Election. And, from recent
experience with young people through the Armed Forces Queen's
Pageant contestants and students applying for the Sister City
Program he believes the School District deserves citizen support
for producing fantastic young people.
Mr. Johnson also encouraged everyone to get out and vote on the
School Bond election - Tuesday, May 22. In reference to the
potential for Bremerton to get more ships home ported, he pointed
out that the City of Bremerton had already accommodated a
population of 70,000 during a time when there was a lot less
housing units available during World War II and he knows this City
will welcome any new military personnel. He believes that even the
properties that are not well kept and/or inhabited at this time
would offer additional housing if the incentives are great enough
for the owners. He commended the Mayor for his work with Puget
Power and the recent cleaning/painting of light poles, hanging of
the new banners and flower baskets. He noted little things like
those projects improve the downtown area. During the Cable
Committee meeting this past week they discussed with the local
Cable operators some of the problems with the Cable Communications
Act, particularly the Syndex and network non-duplication
programming. The Committee and Cable operators have at least reac~d
common ground on what needs to be done to get Congress and the FCC
to change the Federal laws so that Canadian TV coverage can be
returned to locate channels.
Mr. Colvin reported he too artended the Armed Forces Queen's
Pageant and also felt it was an outstanding event. He commended
the contestants participating in the pageant as well as those who
sponsored the event and those who actually put on the production.
He commended Bremerton Main Street Association for the excellent
turnout at the Kitsap County/Bremerton's night at the Mariner's
Game on Saturday, May 12. The Bremerton Central Lions Club was
TAPE #731

well represented at that game. He encouraged everyone to be sure
and vote on Tuesday during the School Bond Levy. The Bremerton
Central Lions Club will sponsor a Pancake Breakfast on Saturday,
May 17, starting at 7:30 AM. Mr. Colvin introduced Mr. Russ
Nickerson and Bob Bray of the PSNS Centennial Committee. Russ
Nic_k~Qn, 1129 Marguerite, representing the Executive Board of the
PSNS Centennial Committee, stated he and Mr. Bray would make a
status and progress report on the 1991 Centennial celebration for
the Shipyard. B_9~.._~.~, President of the Centennial Committee,
stated they were looking to put together a small centennial
structure within the PSNS Plaza park area, as well as some art work
and park benches. Their publicity program includes a brochure,
mailed out through the Metal Trades Credit Union, soliciting funds
through the purchase of a brick, which will then be used to pave
the plaza area. They are developing a poster advertising program,
to be sponsored by corporations/businesses~ and will be handed out
at the dedication ceremonies in 1991. Mr. Bray provided a sketch
of the proposed covered structure they would like placed in the
plaza area, including some floral work, maybe a time capsule, art
work, etc. This fall there will be a Trade Show at the Kitsap
Pavilion and the Centennial Committee will have a booth at that
show to publicize the Centennial event. Within the plaza they will
be Placing 4"x8" sized bricks, purchased by individuals, as well
as 12" square pieces of granite for corporate seals and/or large
families to purchase. The Plaza park dedication is scheduled for
September 14, 1991. The committee is working with the Mosquito
Fleet Days group, who will be celebrating their 100th birthday
September 1990, to come to Bremerton and help put on a Street Fair.
The Committee is also working with the United States Air Force to
schedule some "fly overs" A History Book is being prepared by
some retired personnel and is comprised of 300 pages plus pictures-
Mr. Colvi~ questioned for clarification if anyone could purchase a
brick? Mrt..B~ stated yes, anyone who would like to purchase a
brick may do so, they do not have to be employees of PSNS. Rj~
C~!Pg~, Patriotic Chairman for VFW District 4, offered his
services to be a liaison on this committee, representing all
veterans organizations concerned.
Mr. Dawkins reported he spent the weekend in the Tri-Cities area
and noted they were experiencing the same kind of weather patterns
as Western Washington. He looked forward to moving into Armed
Forces Week and also encouraged everyone to vote on Tuesday.
Mr. Collins stated he was concerned about the upcoming School Levy
election and noted he would hate to see things happen as they had
in past years where the citizens who went to the polls would pass
a money issue but not enough voters turned out to validate the
election. He reminded everyone of the Continental Army Band
concert scheduled Friday, May 18, at the Pavilion, Armed Forces Day

Parade on Saturday and the largest ever Baked Bean/Corn Bread
event.
~rs.___~grtg~ stated she too supports the School Bond Levy and
emphasized the fact that the School District is in a real crisis as
to housing the number of students. In her daughter's school, 150
students are being transferred to Naval Avenue School because of
the housing crunch and this will only be getting worse as more
students move into the district. She urged everyone to go out and
vote, showing support of the School District, children and the
future of Bremerton.

such a great event. He reminded everyone of the rededication of

T~rr!_.H~gn, Coordinator for Bremerton Together, reported work is
underway on an East Bremerton clean up effort scheduled for June 23
with a barbecue to benefit Easter Seals and the Chairman of this
event is Kim Gilman of The Willows. And, they are beginning a
program of adopting streets - the Kiwanis and Bremerton Central
Lions Club have already joined in adopting some sections of

attention and she is working with Leif Arps, Kitsap Regional
Library, who will coordinate recycling programs for companies who
decide they want an in-house recycling program for their

everyone of the Bremerton Central Lions Club Pancake Breakfast on

Car Show will be held .at Roosevelt Field 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. He
noted the Armed Forces Festival Association is looking to the car
show event to bring in funds that will help the Festival
Association to continue its promotion of Bremerton. He noted how
proud the festival association was of the banners and flower
baskets hung in the downtown area. He emphasized the tremendous
amount of cooperation received from the Darks Department and Street
Department in getting the city ready for the Armed Forces
activities.
Jim Wooten, Bremerton Area Dart Association, announced the 10th
Annual Dart Tournament will be held May 25 - 28, at the Bayview
Quality inn. He invited all Council members to attend this event
and have an opportunity to meet the many contestants from many
different areas. He emphasized the financial impact this large
group of people had on the City during the period of the
tournament. In particular, he invited Council members and Mayor
Mentor to join him at the welcoming event, Friday evening 7:30
p.m., to be held in the Dome.
Ro][_Mc~n_~!~, 2711 Maple Street, spoke in reference to the recent
increase in golf fees at Gold Mountain Golf Course and pointed out
that the rate of inflation in all aspects of life are on an
increase and he felt the golf fee increases adopted were fair. He
did not feel it was fair that Council members and City employees be
harassed over an issue that will only bring about improvements and
potential expansion of the golf course facilities.
D~.~ng~!~, 3526 E. Matthews Drive, owner of Del's Car Wash,
stated in 1989 he built a business along Wheaton Way, Del's Car
Wash, and at that time he did not realize the sewer rates were
going to be so excessive. He provided copies of an article from a
trades magazine that told how much water is used in a self-service
car wash. Basically, there is only one gallon out of three, used
in a car wash, that goes into the sewer system. The City's sewer
rates are based on water consumption at the water meter and in the
11 months he has been in operation he has had a total water/sewer
cost of almost $3,400.00, of that amount $2,700.00 was sewer
service cost. The major thing about self-service car washes is
that there are three major losses of water: (1) carry out directly
on the vehicle; (2) evaporation from bay floors, walls, ceiling
directly into the air; (3) Atomization - directly into the air. He
cited study results, which were conducted by Pennsylvania State
TAPE #731
City Council Reg. Mtg. Minutes

University. Mr. English's position was that he felt self-service
car washes are being forced to pay sewer rates that are identical
to other water intensive commercial operations, such as
laundromats, restaurants, etc., that have a one gallon in - one
gallon out operation. In a self-service car wash a lot of the
water is eliminated through the three losses noted previously.
Another thing he has in his system, which does not contribute to
sewage treatment of the water, is a protection system, which comes
on when the temperature gets down to 32 degrees a small stream of
water comes out of each wand/brush - going 24 hours per day,
preventing the system from freezing. All of that water goes into
the sewer but does not get treated. When he constructed the car
wash he was required to install an oil separator, with just the
water being discharged into the sewer system. He is required to
pay to have the oil separator pumped and residue oil removed by an
EPA approved handler. Some other environmental concerns that he
had are the charity car washes in the City. Almost any summer
weekend there are 3 or more charity car washes being conducted in
parking lots, gas stations, etc.. He supported the idea of charity
car washes, however, the affluent from those cars, oil-grease-oil-
film, goes into the parking lots and flows into the storm sewers.
The storm sewer system then goes directly into Puget Sound. If the
charities would contact the car washes in town he felt they would
work with the groups to have a shared type revenue from the car
washes. He requested the Council to take some official action
banning charity car washes in the City of Bremerton, due to the
fact that they are contributing unwanted soap, grease, road film,
directly into the storm sewers. Also, there are gas stations in
the City, who have high pressure cleaning systems for cleaning
car/truck engines in their parking lots - this run off also goes
directly into the storm sewers. He requested a 304 reduction in the
sewer charges for self-service car washes. president Norton stated
his comments would be forwarded to the Utilities Director. Mr.
Waibel stated, for the public's information, all storm water in the
City is treated through the sewage treatment plant.
questioned what water is discharged at Lebo Dock? Mr. Dawkin__s
stated there is a natural stream of water run off from Clare's
Marsh.
Jean Proteau, member of the Citizens Committee For Good Schools,
thanked the Council for their support in helping to promote the
School Bond Levy election coming up on Tuesday, May 22.
Del Knauss, 139 Olympic Avenue, expressed concern over the recent
Olympic College survey regarding the sale/use of Roosevelt Field
for college purposes. He disagreed with the results of that survey
noting that not all those contacted actually lived within the City
limits. He challenged the credibility of using telephone prefixes
to determine whether or not someone lived within City limits and

disagreed with the percentages cited of those in favor of turning
Roosevelt Field over to Olympic College for their use. He
emphasized that 644 of the voters voted, on February 6, 1990,
supporting that open space was a high priority and supported
protecting City parks. He expressed concern that Olympic College
was blessed with staff and students who are physically unable to
walk 2,100 ft., or less.
Don Larson, 135 Rainier Avenue, announced Kitsap Diving Association
will hold a meeting on Thursday, 7:00 PM, at the Hi-Joy Bowling
Alley, Port Orchard. At that meeting they intend to discuss the
Port Of Bremerton's new 1st Street Dock and waterfront plans. He
emphasized that anyone from the public is welcome to attend this
meeting. This group will also be talking about the possibility of
developing an underwater park. He realizes that development of such
a park would take the cooperation of the City, Port of Bremerton,
Department Of Ecology~ etc., but feels that it would be a "natural"
to have such a facility in this area. Their primary goal is to
work with the Department Of Navy to see if they could get some of
their old ships to use in the underwater park.

Memorial park will be rededicated on May 18, 1990, 11:30 AM. This
small pocket park located at 1st and Pacific has been redesigned to
provide additional green space for the use and enjoyment of
residents, employees and visitors to downtown Bremerton.

Vicki V~nn~_~~, Director Of Parks and Recreation, briefly explained
the location of the park and involvement of departments and
agencies responsible for its redevelopment. Funding for this
project came from several sources: (1) grant monies through the
Kitsap Centennial Committee in the amount of $1,500; (2) matching
funds in the amount of $1,000 from Bremerton Main Street
Association; (3) in-kind contributions by the Street Department,
Parks Department and Puget Sound Naval Shipyard. And, she invited
everyone to attend the dedication ceremonies - Friday, May 18,

6C - INFORMATION ITE_M _T_CO_UN~ DRUG TAS~__FOR_CE_, ~A~90-115
Through the cooperation of Municipal elected officials in the
cities of Bremerton, Port Orchard, Poulsbo and Winslow, along with
the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard Naval Investigative Services (NIS),
an Interlocal Agreement was approved to create a County-wid~e drug
enforcement investigative team.
The program commenced in January of this year. Two major
operations proved successful with the arrest of approximately 15
individuals, some known members of the "Crips" and "Bloods" gangs.
Occasionally citizens will become frustrated because they do not
see immediate results after calling in a tip. It can be as little
as one month or several months, from the initial contact, before a
case is investigated to the point that the case will be upheld in
the Courts.
We are currently working in all the areas covered by this agreement
and the fact that information is being shared, each agency has
increased their knowledge 10-fold. This is a cost savings to the
citizens served with less duplication of services.
Police ch~ D~i_..~~ stated with the cooperation of the public
the Police can crack down on the sales of drugs and protecting
children/homes and the Police Department is doing everything it can
to enforce the law. One of the ways to bring about change is
through education and the City has instituted the D.A.R.E. program,
which targets children in 5th grade. Currently the City has one
officer dedicated to instruct the D.A.R.E. program, which covers a
17 week period. This program helps children make better choices in
the future. He noted the Kitsap County Sheriff's office, City of
Poulsbo and City of Winslow all have police officers in the grade
schools teaching the D.A.R.E. program. And, from the past
experience in the grade schools it is desired to expand this
program into the High Schools. At this time statistical data as to
the program's success is somewhat limited due to the fact that only
two classes have been completed. However, from the City of Los
Angeles' experience, after 5-years into the program, they had a
significant impact on those students they followed up on in that
854 said they had not experimented with any drugs.
