6D - ORDINANCE rFIRST READINGl AUTHORIZING KITSAP COUNTY CONSOLIDATED
HOUSING AUTHORITY (KCCHA) TO EXERCISE POWERS OF A PUBLIC DEVELOPMENT
AUTHORITY (#AB04.265): Roaer Lubovich, City Attorney explained that RCW 35.82.070 (12)
provides that a city may authorize a housing authority to exercise no only the powers of a community
renewal agency under Chapter 35.81 RCW but also powers of a public corporation, commission, or
authority (collectively, a "public development authority") under RCW 35.21.730 through 35.21.739.
The proposed ordinance authorizes Kitsap County Consolidated Housing Authority to exercise
powers of a public development authority in order to assist the City in (1) the allocation of federal new
markets tax credits within portions of the City that may not be within the boundaries of a community
renewal area, and (2) facilitating replacement housing in connection with the renewal and
revitalization of West Park, including replacement housing in areas of the City not within the
boundaries of a community renewal.
There were no comments from the public.
Mr. Shepherd thanked the Housing Authority for their commitment to the revitalization efforts in the
City of Bremerton.

Mr. Short supported this agreement since it provides an excellent opportunity for the City to improve
itself.
Mr. Shepherd suggested that a study session be held next year to review the progress of this item.

KCCHA to exercise powers of a public development authority.
6E - RESOLUTION NO. 2949 TO SURPLUS AND APPROVE SALE OF PUBLIC UTILITY
PROPERTY (38 ACRES FORMERLY KNOWN AS THE TRACYTON WATERSHED) TO BEALKO.
INC. (#AB04-266): Phil Williams, Public Works & Utilities Director announced that the City has
received an offer from BEALKO, INC. to purchase certain public utility property. The property is not
currently used for public utility service nor will it be required for providing public utility service in the
future. The offer to purchase the property is fair market value and the City and greater community
would be better served by the surplus and sale of the property. Mr. Lubovich stated that the
purchase price is $2.9 million and the City would retain the title to the land (1.2 acres) where the
water tower is located. Other issues he mentioned included timber rights and provisions for
extending the closing date. He added that a hearing is required regarding the potential sale of the
property since the property is owned by the water utility. Mr. Williams also described the area that
would be affected by the land sale and the location of Reservoir No. 16. He introduced Mr. Butko
and Mr. Vanderpool as prospective buyers of the property.
David Hall expressed his concern that the residents of the Ridgetop area were not informed of this
prospective sale.
Janet Grolich requested that the purchase be delayed to allow time be allowed to fully look at this
issue and for residents to have time to respond.
Martin Bussev was concerned that the sale of the land would displace trees and wildlife; and that
many residents are out of town so they will not be able to respond.
William Radford read a statement expressing his concerns over surplusing the property. He
emphasized that the property is one of the last undeveloped places in Bremerton and asked that the
area be spared. He requested that Council not encourage development.
President Nvaren proposed that the hearing be closed or continued. Mr. Lubovich supported the
closure of the hearing and a date may be set at a later time for a new hearing.
Mrs. Arends supported the hearing being continued to allow citizens time to receive information and
to respond.
Mr. Gehrina indicated to the concerned citizens that he found out about the proposed land sale a day
before the residents were informed and hoped to have a dialogue with them.
Mr. Shepherd asked for the estimated value of the forest, and if there was a possibility of utilizing the
property for timber. Mr. Williams answered that there is useable timber of the property but it is a
smaller value than the property value, and further pointed out that the amount of timber on the 40-
acre lot is not enough to establish a commercial timber draw.
Mr. Shepherd asked if some property could be acquired to sustain the ecosystem; or if the area was
a "park", how could it be paid for since the public is obviously using the area.
Mr. Maupin asked what zoning designation was set for the property. Mr. Huao answered that the
designation on the land has held since 1998 and the new Comprehensive Plan just passed by
Council indicates that the property is zoned for low-density residential development. Mr. Maupin
pointed out that if the City is to develop within the Urban Growth Boundary, then we would actually

save open space outside the UGA. Mr. Huao emphasized that based on the Comprehensive Plan
and UGA, development is inevitable. Mr. Maupin further commented that if the property were sold,
the proceeds would go to the water utility providing relief to the rate payers; but if this area were
converted into a park, then that would actually produce an additional cost to the City.
President Nvaren closed the hearing. No action was taken.
With no further business, the meeting of the City Council was adjourned at 6:20 P.M. Council
reconvened in the Council Conference Room, Room 603 for a LEGISLATIVE REVIEW SESSION to hear
presentations on upcoming agenda items.

independently. Furthermore, the position requires specialized paralegal training. Ms. Conley concluded that they
were close enough in levels of responsibility and independent judgment to be a good match. Her recommendation at
that time was that the position of Legal Assistant be upgraded to Pay Band 8 for intemal equity purposes in the 2005
budget and be retitled to Paralegal (copy attached).
In light of the Council's decision on December 8, 2004 to upgrade the Pay Band for the Executive Assistant and
Legislative Assistant from Pay Band 8 to Pay Band 9 for the 2005 budget, based on Ms. Conley's analysis, it is
recommended that the Paralegal position also be upgraded to Pay Band 9 for consistency and to maintain internal
equity.

Re: Pay Band Upgrade for Legal Assistant
This memo is in response to your email of December 9, 2004 regarding the assignment of the Pay
Band for Thelma Swem, your Paralegal. As you will recall, back in June at your request I conducted a
job audit of the fonnerly titled Legal Assistant position. I compared it the positions of Executive
Assistant and Legislative Assistant since both those positions require high levels of confidentiality as
well as the ability to work independently, however neither required the specialized paralegal training
that is nonnally required for the Legal Assistant position. I did note that they were close enough in
levels of responsibility and independent judgment to be a good match. Those positions were assigned
to Professional Pay Band 8. My recommendation at that time was that the position of Legal Assistant
be upgraded from Professional Pay Band 6 to Pay Band 8 for internal equity purposes in the 2005
budget and be retitled to Paralegal (copy attached).
In light of the Council's decision on December 8, 2004 to upgrade the Pay Band for the Executive
Assistant and Legislative Assistant from Pay Band 8 to Pay Band 9 for the 2005 budget, based on my
original analysis completed in June, I hereby concur with your request that the Paralegal position also
be upgraded to Pay Band 9 for consistency and to maintain internal equity.

Re: Job Audit - Legal Assistant
Based upon your request for an audit of the Legal Assistant position in your department, I began by
having your Legal Assistant, Thelma Swem, complete a Position Description Questionnaire (PDQ). It
is my understanding that you also reviewed her completed PDQ for accuracy as to work performed,
required skills, etc. prior to it's submission to me (copy attached).
I fIrst compared it with the Legal Assistant job description (JD) that was created in 2001, based upon
the pay & classification study (copy attached). The previous JD did not list the specialized paralegal
education and skills required to perform this position. Additionally, 20% of the incumbent's time is
now spent in performing actual paralegal work versus the 50% previously identified in performing
more basic secretarial duties. Currently those duties are only listed at 20% of the time. The result was
that it made the comparison of the previous JD more in line with an Office Assistant Senior Specialist,
which is a classification covered by the Teamsters Collective Bargaining Agreement.
The current legal assistant position requires an extremely high level of confidentiality based upon the
nature of the work as well as very specialized knowledge of Civil litigation rules and procedures, and
court procedures and requirements in State and Federal Court which can only be gained through
specialized paralegal training. Also at least 20% of time is spent in coordinating and managing the
work of Legal Services.
I then compared it the positions of Executive Assistant and Legislative Assistant. Both those positions
require high levels of confidentiality as well as the ability to work independently, however neither
require the specialized paralegal training that is nOlmally required for the Legal Assistant position,
however, tlley are close enough in levels of responsibility and independent judgment to be a good
match (copies attached). Those positions are assigned to Professional Pay Band 8.

~n
Based upon the above analysis, I am recommending that you request to have the position of Legal
Assistant upgraded from Professional Pay Band 6 ($39,631-$48,285) to Pay Band 8 ($43,744-$53,928)
in the 2005 budget. I also recommend that the position be retitled to Paralegal. Thelma is currently at
Step 8 of Band 6 ($48,285) and would move up to Step 5, Band 8 ($49,493) for an annual difference in
base salary of $1 ,208 + percentage based benefits.

INTRODUCTION
The Opportunity
The City of Bremerton (City) is seeking proposals from qualified designers for the design of
three separate, interrelated and adjacent properties, Maritime Park, Naval Museum/
Building 50 Renovations, and Memorial Plaza.
The New Bremerton
Bremerton sits at the heart of Kitsap County and is the gateway to hundreds of thousands
of annual visitors to the Kitsap and Olympic peninsulas. Bremerton's waterfront and
urban core is experiencing rebirth and offers the State of Washington's greatest potential
for economic growth.
The Bremerton downtown core ("Bremerton Harborside") began major Development in
the spring of 2002. These projects start with the just-completed spectacular waterfront
Kitsap Conference Center, the Hampton Inn and Suites, a 525 car 3 story parking
garage, Kitsap Transit's 36,000 sq ft office building, retail space including Starbucks,
Coldstone Creamery and Subway, a restaurant pad, and beautiful interactive and
choreographed plaza fountains. A new 6 story 104,000 sq ft civic/government building
will be complete in October, 2004. Major new pedestrian - friendly streets, pedestrian
lighting, planting strips and trees on Washington Avenue, Burwell Street and Second
Street will be completed by October 1, 2004. A 1,000 car, six story Navy parking garage
in the downtown core has commenced demolition and construction. Kitsap County
Federal Credit Union will start construction of a 50,000 sq ft office Building adjacent to the
Kitsap Conference Center in late fall 2004. Construction of 200 Bremerton Harborside
Condominium units will begin Phase I construction in April 2005. A Twenty Eight Million
Dollar federally funded Pedestrian/Bremerton Transit Center Access project is in the final
environmental assessment phase and will commence construction in late 2005. An
expanded 240 slip Marina adjacent to Bremerton Harborside and the Boardwalk is
scheduled for construction in 2005-06. Undergrounding of all utilities in the downtown
core is underway. Many of the existing downtown office buildings are under renovation
by private developers and owners.
PROJECT SCOPE
The Project incorporates three adjacent properties and phases, including Maritime Park
(Phase A), Naval Museum/Building 50 Renovation (phase B), and Memorial Plaza (Phase
C). The three Phases are separate, adjacent sites but are to be connected and
integrated for design and use. Each Phase will be developed in late 2004 through early
2006. The commencement of design and construction of each phase may occur
simultaneously or be staggered depending on site availability and other interconnected
downtown development projects. Interested desianers mav submit aualifications for
one, two, or all three of the Phases.
Maritime Park - Maritime Park is a parcel adjacent to and immediately south of
the Bremerton Transportation Center. The property consists of approximately 1.8
acres 220 ft in width at the shoreline, then narrowing to 100 ft and extending to
the Naval Museum/Building 50 Renovation site. It is expected that the design will
include a waterfront plaza, seating and rest areas, rockeries, trees, scrub, lawns,
walkways, handicap access and other amenities to advance high quality open

shallow portico with full entablature supported by ionic columns. The footprint
measures 88 feet by 78 feet and 32 feet in height. It was frequently remodeled
with walls added for use as offices, an apprentice school and dispensary.
Currently located in the inner PSNS construction area, in early October 2004, it will
be moved to a new site with a basement foundation located at the south end of
Pacific A venue and west end of First Street. The building and site will be
transferred to the City of Bremerton. It is a national historic building. The City will

with the Navy, the City with design, develop, and maintain the site as a Navy
memorial urban park. It is contemplated that the plaza will have memorials and
artifacts recognizing each naval ship that has been "scrapped" in PSNS, depict
and illustrate the shipyard wartime past. illustrate current shipyard work, and
provide events/reunion plaza. The Memorial Plaza will incorporate 911 security
