CONSENT AGENDA - BID A~qARD RECCMMENI]ATION/5 USED SEDANS #AB84-314
Mr. Dave Patmon gave a presentation on 'the ~o bidders, Bennett Ford (local)
and Hertz Corporation - used sedans per specifications. Both proposed cars
with 25,000 miles average use and staff reccrrnended acceptance of cars. Using
ccr~parative analysis, over the expected seven-year use, the Dodge Aries
(Hertz bid) will cost the City $3,095 less than the Mercury model bid by
Bennett Ford. If the Council had concerns they my wish to award to a local
vendor, however, the recomendation of the staff was to accept the bid
received by Hertz in the amount of $32,995.00, plus applicable tax.
Councilman Drouin asked if it were legal to award a bid in t/tis manner. Mr.
Patron stated that specifications take into consideration more than cost facto~
for example warranty, service, travel time or available parts. When questioned
about the average age of vehicles in the fleet Mr. Patnon said over 50% were
5.5 years old on average. He further stated that useful life of a ccr~pany vehi.
cle is 75,000 miles. He deferred statistical questions to Della Mydske who
stated the information w-as not a~kailable at this time but she could prepare
it if Council needed it.
Councilman Mosely asked which was the best deal, the 1982 or 1983 model cars?
Mr. Patmen said that vehicles demonstrated were looked over carefully before
reccrmmdation was made and that the Hertz cars had less visual exterior wear.
He said Bennett Ford would have opportunity to present others than examined.
Councilman Sturdivant asked the difference in warranty with Mr. Patmon respond-
ing that Bennett Ford could provide local service, hcTwever, Hertz would allow
the City to repair in it's own garage. Councilman Mosely asked if they were
used or traded vehicles. Mr. Patmon stated cars were used in the rental
fleet service of both bidders.
#0541
Mr. Richard Gregg Bennett Ford representati~, offered to extend the city rights
to cosmetic repairs before city takes delivery. A Ford Motor Warranty was

PUBLIC RECOGNITION
Glenn Vockrodt, 1409 Marlow Drive, addressed the Council on two issues.
(1) He felt Shoreline violations were occurring on old Wheaton Way across frcm
Fast Park. He stated a fill was established without a permit, and requests
that it be removed. He noted the material has bee there two months. Council
responded that they understood that the Building department has already redm
tagged the prclDerty in question. (2) Mr. Vockrodt said that at the North
end of Park Avenue near the two houses and South of the Pump Station, materials
were left after repairs to a sewer break. The materials are still there and
felt they should be remDve~].
Councilman Anderson directed the Mayor to check into both requests and report
back. Clerk McCluskey advised the F~3/lowe property is city property. Council
President advised that we would have a report at next meeting.
Ms. Walterine Taylor, 2708 Callaban Drive, inquired about the investigation
within the Police depet and Council President stated a report tk~s been
received by the Council and Administration.
MAYOR'S REPORTS - CONFIRMATION OF BUILDING OFFICIAL #AB84-326
On Ju~e 11, 1984, a ccmmittee interviewed applicants for Building Official and
Mr. David Delph was selected the most suitable and qualified candidate. Mayor
Dawkins stated he is currently with the County as Building Official and asked
that Council confirm his appointment.
M/S/C/U/(Homing/AnD) to approve the appointment of Mr. David Delph as the
new Building Official. Councilman Adrian pointed out Mr. Chet Megis, Acting
Fire Chief, had assumed the responsibilities for the past six months and he
should be ccx~rended.
CENSUS IMPACT DEFINITION
Mr. Joe Gero indicated that the city of Bremerton was denied its request for
an adjustment to the Census figures, as of April 1, 1984, and what is needed
is for the City to request reconsideration, to the State by June 22, 1984,
which is the deadline. If the State does not concur, we will have to file an
action in Superior Court.
M/S/C/U/(Mosely/Adrian) by the Bremerton City Council that the Mayor is hereby
directed to pursue through appropriate methods an appeal of the State of Wash-
ington - 1984 estimate of Bremerton Census count. The Mayor should consider
appropriate stepped prccedures to seek a solution agreeable to the City posi-
tion which includes the possibility of filing in an appropriate court.
CITY ATTORNEY ' S REPORT
City Attorney Broughton gave background information on the tentative settlememt
regarding Police Captain Greg Brouwn, stating the City' s Disability Board denied
his request for disability leave or retirement. Mr. Brown appealed the decision
through the State 's system and they overturned the denial, referring it back to
the City. The City filed an appeal of the decision by the State however, Mr.
Brown proposed a resolution of the City' s appeal by waiving his rights to the
balance of disability leave on the books in the amount of approximately 124 days.
He further stated he negotiated the settlement with Mr. Brcwn and his legal
Counsel which was unanimously approved by the Police Pension Board at their
regular montj~ly meeting Tuesday, June 19, 1984. It was his reccmmendation to
the Council that the City accept the offer to waive balance of disability leave
because he feels that we would eventually be unsuccessful in court.
Discussion followed regarding needed changes in the State law but City Attorney
Broughton stated the way the law stands, cause of the disability is not a factor
in awarding a disability.
M/S/C/(Pachek/Drouin) to accept offer of settlement that Mr. Brown waives the
balance of disability leave on the books.

CCUNCIL REPOt{rS
Councilman DroLLin r.eTinded concerned individuals that the Wastewater Ccrmittee
meeting is tcr~rrcw at 9:30 a.m. in Council Conference rocm and it is impera-
tive those involved attend.
Councilman Johnson did not have a report but expressed continued concern with
State Ferry service to the Brererton area end thequality provided citing this
week's breakdown and hours without service. He suggested that citizens write
or phone their representatives in Ol!mpia ccmplaining of their dissatisfaction.
ORDINANCES/RESOLL~IONS - "DOMxrlIDWN REDE~YIDPMENT" LID #AB84-327
As directed by the City Council, City Attorney drafted an Ordinance for first
reading on the "Downt~{n RedeveloFment" LID. City Clerk indicated copies have
been available to interested parties and she has additional copies available
on the front desk.
Mr. Lou Soriano questioned that the Ordinance, before passed, should indicate
interest rates, amount to be assessed property owners, length of time to pay
and whether the rate of payment is fixed or variable. He felt there should
be an Ordinance drafted that defines these issues before passing the Ordinance
on the agenda at this meeting.
Mr. Jim Straight, Harlcw Drive (President of BACCN) felt the Councilwas "puttin0
the cart before the horse". He expressed concern about the $7,000,000 for just
a cover and parking. He stated without revenue what would the taxes to the
citizens be for the city's share. He thought that without the provision for
parking first, forget the rest of the project.
Mr. Bert Gegner, 934 Washington, said there is a certain amount of gamble to the
project and feels that money generated frc~n the property owners may not be enou/
but the city should go for it even though details are not ironed out at this
point.
Mr. Glenn Vockrodt felt the parking problem should come first and expressed con-
cerns of citizen ccnments he has heard.
Mr. Gene Fisher, 218 1st Street, said the city should resolve the parking hass]l1
first. He agreed with Mr. Bob Smock (reference Hearing minutes 5/31/84) that we
are not prepared to proceed with the project and the boundaries ere still in
question and should be more seriously considered, what the cost will be to the
taxpayers.
Councilman Adrian asked the City Attorney hc~ many more ordinance will be needed
with City Attorney Broughton responding, several. One for bonds, assessment roles,
selling of bonds, etc. Mr. Adrian asked what exactly this Ordinance covers with
City Attorney Broughton stating the project goals, defining boundaries and a
chance for people to respond. Mr. Adrian then asked what if the interest rates
are high? Mr. Broughton said the state of the bond market is important because
the City will have the same concerns as the property owners.
Mr. Joe Gero answered questions and ccnr~_nts on parking and said one of the tb/ngs
that could be implemented and that the Parking co~xmittee is looking into, is
parallel type parking and staff is looking into other solutions. The ccrmittee
and staff are progressing and review of maps indicates high percentage of long-term
parking at present time in downtown Bremerton. He hopes to bring a rec~rmendation
before the Council soon to implement changes.
Councilman Pachek noted that free parking will be sereday a thing of the past.
He has sedan large shopping cc~plexes like the Value Giant and K-Mart chains
starting to charge and put up ~eters.
M/S/C/(Adrian/Pachek) to approve an Ordinance, on first reading, ordering the
construction of local improvements in the City' s Central Business District all
in accordance with Resolution No. 2010 of the City Council; establishing Local
Improvement District No. 325 and ordering the carrying out of the proposed improvu-.
ment; providing that payment for the improv~{~ent be made in part by special assess-
ments upon the property in the District, payable by the mode of "payment by bonds";
and providing for the issuance and sale of local improvement district warrants
redeemable in cash or other short-term financing and local improvement district
bonds.
Councilman Drouin indicated he would vote in favor as the downtown needed sizzle.
Councilman Sturdi~-ant stated his position has not changed and is opposed because
he feels ot~ priorities are out of line. Councilman Mosely is still against it

RESOLUTION 02036 PERMIT PARKING ZONE 051 - REQUEST TO RESCIND ~AB84-318
The Resolution for Zone #51 was passed by City Council on May 9, 1984, however
the residents of the area have now petitioned (100% of original petitioners) to
rescind the parking zone. Ms. McCluskey said that of the 3 original petitioners,
all 3 signed the request to rescind. The Council would have to repeal by resolu-
tion, if that is the desire, per attached Resolution 02036.
~VS/C/(Adrian/Horning) to approve Resolution 02036, rescinding Zone #51, Permit
Parking. (Sturdivant not present to vote). Motion passed
HEARINGS - OLYMPIC KIDNEY CE~I'ER REQUEST FOR REZONE FROM R-2 to B-2 0AB84-257
Olympic Kidney Center has requested the City to approve a rezone frcm R-2 to
B-2 for properties at Clare & Hemlock. Council Presidnet Anderson asked if any
Councilman had a conf]_ict of interest; Councilman Sturdivant removed himself frcfa
~e meeting.
Carol Saari, Planner, gave a short narrative of the history of action on above
request, indicating that the Planning Ccn~nission approved the request per Resolu-
tion #716, on April 17, 1984; it was scheduled for City Council Hearing on May
16, 1984 with request for continuance; May 23, 1984 with request for continuance
~d June 6, 1984, with a request for continuance, all granted. She further pre-
sented doc~n~tation from the Planning department which was the basis of the
Planning Ccr~nission motion to rec~r~nd approval. The proposed fezone would be
consistant with adjacent businesses in area, consistent with the Bremerton Area
Pi~ policies, would provide more intense use of the subject prope_rty, existing
utilities are capable of supporting service, Clare and Hemlockwould more than
likely accc~n~Ddate any additional traffic and that the Planning staff had no
objections to the proposed fezone to B-2.
Mr. Bill Palm~r, Land Use Consultant, worked with Mr. Eline and had asked again
per letter dated, June 18, 1984, to delay; hcwever, they have since decided to go
ahead with the hearing tonight and have asked the City Council to disregard the
previous request to delay tonight. Mr. Palmer wanted to emphasize two areas:
(1) ~at both the Planning Departne_nt and Planning Cc~ssion have reviewed the
proposed rezone and rec~nend approval; and (2) that the area has substantial
comnercial development already in the area. Mr. Eline requests to rezone the
whole parcel now instead of ccming back to rezone the balance of the property
at later date(s). Mr. Eline requests that the whole parcel be rezoned to B-2
instead of [3-1 because the B-2 zone allows a wider variety of land uses. The B-3
land uses, for example, would allow business and professional offices on the
southern portion of the site (such uses would not be allowed in the B-1 zone).
Mr. Palmer stated that such land uses would be cc~patible with the surrounding
land uses and zoning. His client, Mr. Eline, is also looking for conpatible
uses to cc~plement the Kidney Center.
}~. Rick Bearbauer, P.O. Box 2058 Silverdale, stated it has been difficult to
find a parcel of property to fit the Kidney Center needs at an affordable price
and this land is cc~patibte for its purpose.
Dr. James Kilduff, Urol0gist - 2500 Cherry Avenue, said the Kidney Center receives
public funding and is presently a part of the Northwest Kidney Center. The origi-
nal plans were to treat 12 individuals hcwever, they are presently handling in
excess of 40 patients with no space, possibility of having to change to shift
appointments and no where for patient's family or friends to sit while waiting
for patient. He e~phasized the need to be close to the hospital and there is
now a need to turn patients away, directing them to seek treatment in Seattle or
Taccma. He said he and other investors will lose their earnest money if they
do not receive the rezone as that is the way the contract reads.
Counci~mAno, for clarification, asked if ~e Kidney Center would lose existing
money? Dr. Kilduff stated yes. He mentioned that since BACC~ had accepted the
plan, they did not see any problem.
Dr. Kenneth Cogan, 2528 hTheaton Way, stated the present facilities are bursting
at the seams and the only way to expand would be to start a swingshift, 12:00 to
8:00 a.m., which is not agreeable due to additional staffing and security reasons.
He felt the B-2 zoning is appropriate for area and the Kidney Center's needs. He
noted that not one neigbtDor or citizen has opposed the plan or complained.
Mr. Jim Fortune, 702 Concord Lane, is a patient at the existing facility and the
first 1~ years he has checked in for treatment, it wasn't bad. But the needs,

because of more patients needing to be served, plus the fact that it serves a 3
county are, the facility is overrun. He urged the City Council to suEport the
rezone.
Ms. Mickey Kenyon, Employee at Kidney Center, stated that over 25% of the patients
being treated are over age 65 years and approximately 14% are in the handicapped
category. She urged the Council to pass the rezone'because of the need for ex-
pansion of the existing facility to serve Kidney patient needs.
Mr. Ivan Trumbell, Vice-President BACON - Cherry P1., approved the initial con-
cept of the fezone for the Kidney Center only.
Mr. Bill Palmer said to delay action would pose a hardship on the Kidney Center
and patients served.
Councilman Amo inquired as to the square footage proposed for the facility. P4r.
Palmet stated 5,000 feet. Mr. Amo asked if B-1 would not be good enough? Mr.
Palmer said for the Kidney Center, yes, however his client will not all the Kidney
Center to buy a portion of his property unless the entire property had the B-2
zone. Mr. Amo stated he felt the Kidney Center was important but that the Council
was "being held hostage" if they do not grant the rezone and that he would vote
against it.
CounciLman Mosely thought that no one would build a residence in the area be-
cause of the conmercial properties already established but he was concerned about
the environmental impact such as signs, noise, etc. that could eventually
cause the resthc~e a problem, across the street. He felt it was an ideal place
for the Kidney Ces~ter and something needed.
Councilman Pachek concurred with ~Lr. Mosely and felt it would be an asset for
cc~munity and would support it.
Councilman Homing will support the Center and would encourage further use of the
property.
Councilman Adrian shared some of Mr. AmD's concerns. Maybe the Council should
consider, lighting, greenbelt, etc. Concerned about resthame and bordering chLu,
in area but would support with restrictions suggested.
Councilman Johnson asked who made-the application? Mr. Bearbower, Agent for
Olympic Kidney Center, stated that p~wer-of-attorney was granted frcrn the
owner Mr. Eline, allowing Dr. Cogan and Mr. Bearbower to act on his behalf.
City Attorney reviewed docunents and stated they were in order.
Councilman Drouin asked what would prevent a sheetmetal shop or garage type of
business going in at a later date. Mr. Gero responded that there would be no
way to guarantee.
Councilman Anderson wished property was not on terms but wanted the Kidney Center
and would vote for project. He further stated he disliked the loss of control over
the rest of the property.
M/(Amo) to reject rezone frown R-2 to B-2; Motion died for lack of second.
Councilman Adrian again expressed his environmental concerns such as visual impact,
lighting, noise, glare, traffic impact and City Attorney Broughton stated if he
is concerned about these issues, it must be part of the motion.
M/S/C/(Adrian/Drouin) to approve rezone frown R-2 to B-2 with a 20' (twenty-foot)

Waste~ater Facilities Construction Project Engineer, Dave Baker, gave a short
presentation with graphs and d~mrts sho~ing the need to work within the County
for a cooperative sludge management alternative. He stated there are four ways
to dispose of sludge; (1) land application, (2) landfill - avs/lability, (3) ccm-
position and (4) incineration, the most expensive method. He stated ccnposting
is long term and has to be stored, used, or sold. Landfill has to be covered.
lncineration has air pollution problens and doubtedwe could qualify for the
permits. He felt the only solution would be a county-wide cooperative effort.
Dr. Don Proctor, Wastewater Treatment Supt. stated that a regional approach would
put us on the top of the grants 1/st. If we attenpted to inplement a solution
alone, we probably wouldn't receive a dime.

headquarters station downtcwn) to Station #3, E. 31st and Olympus. He said North
Perry has approximately 160-180 calls annually and noted this contract would
assess North Perry approximately $15,000 annually which is adequate, comparing
other like contracts.
Councilman ;ruderson expressed concern about moving R-t to the eastside station
for the purpose of obtaining an outside contract. That the service is for the
citizens of the city. PEr. Scott stated that headquarters would still have a
paramedic attached to an engine ccmpany responding frcm headquarters. He said
it would improve manning for the department.
Mr. Bert Gegner takes exception with Mr. Scott's conrnent saying that the down-
town area is more the elderly and needs the main Rescue Unit in the dense area.
Mr. St~rdivant disagreed saying that over 40% of Bremerton's population is in
East Bramerton. It was noted that contract is frcxn year to year with a cost
of living index. It also is bearing on the number of calls Bremerton Fire responds
to.

BREMERTON HOUSING REHAB PRDGRAM GUIDELINES 1984 REVISED #AB84-325
Ms. Colleen Donley, Planning Department, gave a presentation of 1984 Revised
Housing Rehab Program guidelines. This infonnation was obtained over the past
6 months cencerning Br~nerton's Housing rehabilitation needs and requirements
of the 3rd Pound of of the Rental Demonstration Program and new Rental Rehab
Prcgram. She defined loan categories as (1) 0%, deferred term loans for
homeowners with incomes less than or equal tO 65% of the media income; (2)
4%, 30-year term loans for homec~ners with inc~nes greater than 65% but less
than or eq~ual to 80% of the m~{lian inccme, loan not to exceed $12,000; and,
(3) 0%, deferred term loans for rental properties housing primarily low and
moderate in~ persons, with the owner providing bank funds or funds from
other private sector sources equal to at least 50% of the total rehabilitation
loan package. Cc~parisons are for inc~ne averages in Kitsap County. The
progranuq first priority re~a/ns Health and Safety deficiencies. The two target
areas are the Naval and Smith neighborhoods. She reccmmended Council approval.
Mr. Bert Gegner, Apartment owner, stated he has applied and utilized this pro-
gram and it was a "sFecial kind of hassle" to get the loan. He did not like the
idea that conditions were placed on the loan such as certified laborers when
he could do the work himself at less cost. He reccmmended simplifying contract
requirements and clarifying reasonable and just costs. Much of tj]e work he did
ffimself, he could not charge against the loan.
Ms. Donley stated that contractors have to be State licensed and bonded.
