It transformed our understanding of justice, equality, and democracy and advanced our long journey toward a more perfect Union. It helped bring an end to the Jim Crow era, banning discrimination in public places; prohibiting employment discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin; and providing a long-awaited enforcement mechanism for the integration of schools. A half-century later, we celebrate this landmark achievement and renew our commitment to building a freer, fairer, greater society; and WHEREAS, through the lens of history, the progress of the past five decades may seem inevitable. We may wish to remember our triumphs while erasing the pain and doubt that came before. Yet to do so would be a disservice to the giants who led its to the mountaintop, to unsung heroes who left footprints oil our National Mall, to every American who bled and died ori the battlefield of justice. In the face of bigotry, fear, and unyielding opposition from entrenched interests, their courage stirred our Nation's conscience. And their struggle helped convince a Texas Democrat who had previously voted against civil rights legislation to become its new champion. With skillful charm and ceaseless grit, President Lyndon B. Johnson shepherded the Civil Rights Act through the Congress -- and on July 2, 1964, he signed it into law; and 1VHF'REAS, while laws alone cannot right every wrong, they possess an unmatched power to anchor lasting change. The Civil Rights Act threw open the door for legislation that strengthened voting rights and established fair housing standards for all Americans. Fifty years later, we know our country works best when we accept.our obligations to one another, embrace the belief that our destiny is shared, and draw strength from the bonds that hold together the most diverse nation on earth; and WHEREAS, as we reflect on the Civil Rights Act and the burst of progress that followed, we also acknowledge that our journey is not complete. Today, let us resolve to restore the promise of opportunity, defend our fellow Americans' sacred right to vote, seek equality in our schools and workplaces, and fight injustice wherever it exists. Let us remember that victory never comes easily, but with iron wills and common purpose, those who love their country can change it. NOW, THEREFORE, 1, Patty Lent, Mayor of the City of Bremerton, do hereby proclaim 2014 as the .50th Anniversary of the Civil Rights Act. I call upon all Americans to observe this year with prograrns. ceremonies, and activities that celebrate this accomplishment and advance civil rights in our time.

RESOLUTION NO. 3231 APPROVING SUBMITTAL OF THE NOVA RECREATION TRAIL GRANT APPLICATION: Milenka Hawkins-Bates, Public Works & Utilities, explained that the City of Bremerton will use this Non-Motorized Planning grant to evaluate conceptual alignments for a key segment of the Kitsap Regional Trail, a system of coordinated trails that will be gradually improved over the coming years, and decades into a non-motorized transportation facility which will connect Kitsap County rural areas with its cities and rural communities. This non-motorized planning grant will provide information necessary to inform the alignment decision. The City of Bremerton is a regional water provider. Of critical importance to this process is protection of the City's watershed, which provides water to over 50,000 customers, and which is adjacent to the area proposed for public access. This planning effort will allow the City to determine where access is appropriate and how this access can be managed so this future key non-motorized link can be provided without endangering the City's drinking water. Deliverables will include alignment recommendations; a phased planning recommendation; planning low-level estimates; maintenance requirements; trail head locations; parking, security; and other recommendations to secure the watershed despite increased non-motorized use adjacent to the watershed. This is a unique opportunity and there will not be a connected regional trail without this access. The match will be in-kind services (meetings, workshops, staff and administration time) of $40,000 in value. There were no comments or questions from the public... 05:10:00 Motion was made by Runyon and seconded by Davis...Comments and questions were then provided by Runyon, McDonald, Davis, and Daugs; with responses provided by Ms. Hawkins-Bates...

Microsoft's licensing model provides for server OS licensing and client access licensing (CAL's which allows users to access Microsoft server resources). All of these licenses are specific to the software version. For example, you need Windows 2003 CAL's to access resources supplied by Window 2003 (or older) servers. When we upgrade Windows 2003 servers to newer versions of Windows, then the Windows 2003 CALs need to be upgraded as well. Historically, Information Services has never purchased Software Assurance (SA) in licensing windows. This means that when we upgrade or install a new server with an OS version newer than our CALs, we fall out of compliance with the Microsoft License Agreement. This essentially hamstrings our ability to stay current with this important component of our network operations. This purchase will secure the requisite licenses to operate new servers using the latest Microsoft OS and bring our CAL's up to the necessary version. Addfionally, this will also mark the first time we will be purchasing Software Assurance to protect our investment in Windows licensing. These purchases are made under the terms of the Microsoft Select agreement number 6013310 from the contract specified retailer CompuCom. It will cover all City computers and servers except for the Wastewater plant servers/computers and those servers/computers managed under 3`d party contract. -Kevin Matthew Manager, Information Services City of Bremerton CompuCom Till.L—J.•;it SPIU.11- Quote No: 106574784 Client Assistance Center Quoted by: Ricardo Mondragon 7171 Forest Lane Date: 08/14/14 Dallas,Tx 75230 Email: sowasoftware(a).comaucom.com Fax: (800)366-9994 Sold To: 530097320 Ship to: CITY OF BREMERTON ATTN:KEVIN MATTHEW SA Expires 05/31/2017 Quoted under Microsoft Select Agreement#6013310 City of Bremerton PCN 07353523 9 months 1 12 months 12 months SKU# MFG Part No Description MFG CodeQty Unit Price Ext Price Year 1 Ext Price Year 2 Ext Price Year 3 G94409 P71-07304 Microsoft®Windows®Server Datacenter Sngl MSO 2 $ 2,069.98 $ 4,139.96 $ 4,636.49 $ 4,636.49 License/Software Assurance Pack Microsoft Volume License 1 License 2 PROC G94409 R18-00130 Microsoft®Windows®Server CAL Single MSO 325 $ 11.51 $ 3,740.75 $ 4,309.50 $ 4,309.50 License/Software Assurance Pack Microsoft Volume License User CAL 010286 FREIGHT FREIGHT FRT 1 $ - $ - Sub Total: $ 7,880.71 $ 8,945.99 $ 8,945.99 Tax Rate 8.70% Estimated Tax: $ 685.63 $ 778.30 $ 778.30 Pricing and availability subject to change without notice.

Staff reviewed all four and determined that the current provider Kaye Smith be awarded the four year contract. Though Kaye Smith was not the lowest cost per item, other factors justified staff's decision; • Security: Kaye —Smith has the highest security plan and certifications in place. • Location: Kaye—Smith is located in Renton vs Eastern Washington. Eastern Washington service providers will add a day or two to the delivery time, critical for delinquent accounts. • No start-up fees, programming costs or staff time needed for the conversion. • No fluctuation in cost of stationary after six months. Staff will be ramping up an E-Bill campaign to generate on-line payments with the goal being to reduce manual payments, printing, and staff time to process. The contract is for four years with up to three—two year extensions. ATTACHMENTS: 1) Summary of proposals; 2) Goods and Services Agreement FISCAL IMPACTS (Include Budgeted Amount): The service is budgeted within the Water and Waste Water Utility budgets. Estimated annual expenditures are approximately $ 85,000:00. The amount will vary depending on the number of utility bills produced.

The City anticipates approximately$100,000 in revenue to be available for distribution to the approved recipients. Also,the City allocates$155,000 for the Kitsap Conference Center and $150,000 to the Admiral Theatre Foundation. ATTACHMENTS: 1) FY2015 Lodging Tax Advisory Committee Recommendations Summary 2) Memorandum FISCAL IMPACTS (Include Budgeted Amount): If the recommendations are not accepted by City Council, then the organizations will receive no funding for 2015. Collectively, this would drastically reduce the marketing reach of Bremerton by eliminating this entire effort. Less marketing would equate to less presence and ultimately less tourist related business.

Bremerton Chamber of Commerce/ Bremerton Parks&Recreation Department Requested $30,000 Recommended Allocation $0 The intent of having a Wayfinding System is to 1) encourage visitors to take full advantage of activities and venues while in Bremerton 2) assist accidental visitors and those traveling via ferry in navigating throughout the City between key districts and 3).establish standardized signage. It is estimated that with improved signage,there would be a 5%increase in visitors per year and approximately 15%increase in local spending. The first phase of this proposal would include hiring a consultant specializing in signage and Way Finding Systems,taking stakeholder feedback,and developing a plan for the City of Bremerton. The second phase would involve production and installation of the signage. It is estimated that the requested funding would cover the consultant portion and application for further funding would come next year to cover the signage component. A minimum of$20,000 would be needed to arrive at substantial completion of the plan. Signage would tie in the highway,various City districts,and downtown. 3 While committee members did not support funding this proposal,there was consensus that the Wayfinding System should be considered by community organizations and businesses through a stakeholders process and that funding for signage design and/or installation could be addressed as a separate proposal at a later time, or through other sources like grants as well as funding through the organizations and businesses that would benefit most from the signage. Committee members also recognized that establishing consistency in signage and visibility of attractions to tourists would have an incredible impact on tourism and bring together the various City districts.

Seems the City is minimizing ML King by naming on such a small street. Very small honor and would rather see Park Ave or other similar street renamed. 2. He feels it will be hard for people to find the renamed ML King street. Easier to find 7th street name. He cannot be at the public hearing and wishes his comments passed on. 1 Comments on Proposal to Rename 7th Street Between Warren and Pacific Avenues "Dr. ML King Way" The City has been approached by community members requesting to rename 7th Street between Pacific and Warren Avenues in honor of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The proposal to re-name this street "Dr. ML King Way" is scheduled to be considered by the City Council at its September 10, 2014 Study Session, with a Resolution voted on at its September 17, 2014 meeting. Public comments are welcomed to assist the Council in deciding this issue. CHECK ONE: ❑ I SUPPORT the proposed renaming of 7th Street between Warren and Pacific Avenues"Dr. ML King Way."

TO: Bremerton City Council August 25, 2014 AsJG 26 2.014 Comments from Alma Singleton, 518 7th St., Bremerton, WA 98337 -- Phone: 340-4493 City of Drer,Iorton, CCD INITIAL PERSONAL OBSERVATIONS ON RENAMING 7T"TO M.L. KING WAY One year ago, I wrote your group to oppose renaming 7th street, the length of Pacific Ave. to Warren Ave. This renaming does NOTHING to honor Dr. Martin L. King, Jr. It should be apparent that it would be an insult! 7th Street is in sad shape, has only two street lights in the residential areas, one at both endsl The level of criminal elements in this neighborhood, from methanphetamine addicts screaming at night, mental cases wandering around with attitudes, drunkeness, and questionable transient homeless people, etc., is notorious and I have firsthand knowledge of this, since I have lived and worked 24-7 here since 1997. The City allowed Kitsap Transit to run their busses down 7th for too long, causing serious breakdown of the street, obvious major cement breakdown around the sewer entries and other,cracks which have never been repaired. My home is heated with natural gas which is piped in from under Ph across from the back of Kitsap Bank. 7th Street is wide open underneath with major piping for the residences. The Kitsap Bank had to repair the exit from their Bank parking lot onto 7th because the busses had caused a major hole to break through the pavement. I pay taxes here as homeowner and also, did the same when I owned and operated my business here for 10 years, A. Marji's Consulting & Notary. I also took care of my Mother here for the last ten years, during which time, I became sadly very familiar with the more problematic elements of this area. Now, instead of addressing real issues, you want to irritate an already troubled public with what I feel is an untimely, inconsiderate waste of tax payers' money. A. THIS LITTLE AREA OF DOWNTOWN WEST BREMERTON NEEDS A PARKS AND PARKING, NOT MORE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT! On one hand, during my residence/work here, PARKING was, and still is, the biggest issue; and WHOEVER WAS IN CHARGE OF such issues, in all the years I have lived here, has done NOTHING to fix it. The one parking garage between FOURTH and FIFTH Streets, from my questions to those not able to park there, working in the Shipyard, seems reserved for the higher ranking Navy Yard workers, not the PUBLIC, let alone the lower paid workers on the Base. Those not able to park in garage, park on the streets. The ADMIRAL THEATER, which deserves more positive press than I can give it here, is a big draw for this City, but has no obvious parking, except for the Kitsap Bank. I suppose this works for now? Every day, I have the pleasure of watching as the Bremerton downtown improves its streets, buildings. However, the wrong type of growth is happening. New apartments are going up on Burwell, not too sure why. Possibly to house workers for the Naval Shipyard that has numerous issues affecting the surrounding civilian community of Bremerton. Page 1 of 3 A serious consideration of more congested streets is coming with the addition of more housing apartments on Highland and on Burwell, the Burwell Apartments are apparently getting the go-ahead. The Highland "apartments," I am not clear how many units, is going to NEED parking, and from conversation with some residents there, they are concerned for the proposal to tear down the whole hillside toward the Puget Sound Bay by the Manette Bridge to accommodate this "parking." We already have too much vehicle congestion, gas fumes, black soot that deposits in homes and in our lungs from automobiles traveling in and out from the Seattle Ferry and the Shipyard. There also seems to be no law controlling the noise level from motorcycles and vehicles with modified tail pipes. What happened? Such violations used to be against the law. We already have enough unsupported, low income individuals, and we have an overabundance of teens who come from all cultures, who are involved with using illegal drugs, who are not being served. Why create housing for more of this? One lady decided to move herself and her teenage daughter away to Port Orchard because of the unfriendly atmosphere she continued to experience trying to keep her daughter safe just getting to and from school at Bremerton High. WE NEED A BIG PARK NOT MORE HOUSING! B.. EBENEZER AFRICAN METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH AS A POSITIVE The-story Kitsap Sun ran June, 2012, gave a long, interesting story of the Ebenezer Church on Park Ave., the main supporters of this renaming -- Kitsap Sun from June 23, 2012, regarding the development of the Ebenezer Church. "At 100 years old, historic Ebenezer AME Church endures—as it always has" by Chris Henry — In this article I am touched by the depth of information gathered by Chris Henry. " Ebenezer, the oldest black church in Kitsap County, also has seen abundant joy, fellowship and_triumphs, At a time when many older churches are struggling to survive, the church is apparently thriving, staying active in the community and even attracting new members. ..." Chris Henry article, 6/23/2092. From a Kitsap Sun article by Josh Farley, Sept. 26, 2013, "Change of direction in renaming Bremerton street for MLK," a nonresident, Karen Vargas, from Bainbridge Island is getting involved in controlling people and a City where she has no business interfering. Her opinion is honorable. But she should use her influence to consider some other street, NOT 7T" "Karen Vargas, who spearheaded an effort to rename a street on the Bainbridge High School campus for King and helped push for the Bremerton renaming effort, said at a meeting with Bremerton city officials earlier this year that she and others had advocated for a street in the "inner-city." Seventh was chosen before a paper, written by Bainbridge resident and historian Jerry Elfendahl, recommended Park Avenue from Burwell Street to 14th ." Josh Farley, Kitsap Sun, 09/26/2013 article. ***However, in this same article, J. Farley notes the Ebenezer Church Pastor hopes for a better choice of streets to rename: "The Bremerton City Council was set to vote next week on the Seventh Street name change, but the council Wednesday called off the vote in an effort to measure a new groundswell of support for Park Avenue, heard at a meeting Thursday night at the Norm Dicks Government Center. Page 2 of 3 Pastor David Malcolm advocated for the (Park) avenue because he said it provides many services that King stood for, including the Black Historical Society, the planned Marvin Williams Youth Recreation and Community Center and the 101-year-old Ebenezer AME Church, where he serves as church leader. HE DISAGREED WITH THE CHOICE OF A PORTION OF SEVENTH STREET, CALLING IT A"STREET TO NOWHERE." "Surely we can do better," he said."' Josh Farley, Kitsap Sun, 09/26/2013 article. SINGLETON CLOSING STATEMENTS In closing, I am still questioning why I have not been able to get a clear answer why PARK AVENUE cannot be renamed MARTIN L. KING, JR. WAY! Why not re-name 9th Street? Or a strip around the new youth center, which mysteriously has not broken ground as of this date. This is just the tip of the iceberg of reasons why this Council, or, whatever element of the Bremerton City Government is responsible for such renaming, should seriously consider breaking away from taboo of not renaming PARK AVENUE into MARTIN LUTHER KING WAY, JR. 1. It should be apparent that 7th is not the proper street to commandeer and, in respect for Dr. Martin L. King, Jr., naming anything after him should take proper consideration. 2. Park Avenue runs right in front of the proposed Youth Center, which I do hope is successful. 3. Most importantly: In light of the violence in Missouri and historical trauma connected with such actions, maybe we ought to slow down with the labelling and get busy with building the Youth Center, if it is actually going to help ALL kids, not just one ethnic/cultural group and if that is the real focus of the Ebenezer Church. Thank you, Alma Singleton 5187 1h St. Bremerton, WA 98337 Iotsa6CaD-comcast.net Attachment Page 3 of 3 Attachment: for Alma Singleton Comments re Renaming 7t' Street to M.L. King Way, August 25, 2014 Nq FOOD FOR THOUGHT - AUG 2 6 201� , i< Ferguson, Missouri: Aug 14, 2014: from offthegridsurvival.com "President Obama Accuses Police of using Excessive Force while bar-I , mentioning the criminals who are burning down the City" � of 13ren�crton, DCD "'After ignoring what's going on in Ferguson for the last five days, President Obama this morning finally took time away from his vacation and released a statement blaming local police for the violent conditions throughout the area. In a statement to the press President Obama said, "There is also no excuse for police to use excessive force against peaceful protests or to throw protesters in jail.""' While I fully agree that the police have no right to take action against peaceful protestors, keep in mind many of these same protestors are looting and burning down the city. Are the police supposed to just allow them to continue destroying an entire city? The President today dispatched Eric Holder, and members of the Justice Department, to investigate Police Departments throughout the Ferguson and St. Louis Area. The Justice Department's Community Relations Service Team is the same group that many blame for stoking tensions during the Trawon Martin Riots last year. A look at what's to come.... Sadly I think this is a precursor to what's coming. Tensions throughout this country have been high for some time now, and between local police forces that now look like mini-military forces, and groups of criminals looking to spread their violent chaos throughout the country, these types of events are probably going to become pretty common. We all need to be aware of what's going on around us, and keep an eye out for these types of flareups. The last place you want to be is anywhere near the chaos, so pay attention and keep a good eye on the news when these types of events breakout in your area. offthegridsurvival.com ---------------------------- Following are other great people maybe could be considered for naming something after. But making these moves in modern times is questionable with our government getting ready to Impeach a President. I. HARVEY MILK, the first openlygayAmerican to hold a prominent elected office, served on the San Francisco City Board of Supervisors alongside Dan White, a clean-cut Vietnam veteran and former firefighter. The two had a friendly relationship at first, but that had changed when Milk opposed a zoning bill pushed by White, and White became the only supervisor Attachment to Singleton Letter re t Street Renaming Page 1 of 6 to vote against Milk's gay-rights ordinance. Furthermore, as Milk's work in the gay rights movement made him a national icon, White's career sputtered and sent him into depression. In November 1978, White resigned from his seat, saying that the supervisor salary was not enough to support his family. Progressive Mayor George Moscone told White that he would consider reappointing him if he chose to return; when White did ask to return several days later, Moscone refused to reappoint him, due in part to a request by Milk. Feeling angry and betrayed, White decided to take revenge on Moscone and Milk. On Nov. 27. 1978, he carried.a loaded .38 revolver to City Hall with the intent to kill the two men. He entered City Hall through a side door to avoid a weapons search. Moscone's secretary let White into Moscone's office, where White shot him four times, the final two shots fired in the head as Moscone lay on the floor. White then walked down the hall to Milk's office and asked, "Harvey, can I see you a minute?" Milk followed White into his former office, where White shot him five times, again finishing with point-blank shots to the head. Dianne Feinstein, president of the Board of Supervisors, announced the deaths on the steps on City Hall. The city was horrified. That night, 40,000 walked through the streets and held candlelight vigils. "At suppertime, we were alerted again by KSAN that there would be a candlelight vigil at Market and Castro,"writes "Uncle Donald," a Castro Street resident. "When we arrived, the crowd was already huge. Considering that there had been no planning, this was phenomenal. It assured us that we were not alone. We WERE community and we WERE supported by our fellow citizens." SOME HISTORY: Gay Rights A revered landmark for American gay rights activists, Greenwich Village's Stonewall Inn has undergone several transformations in the decades since it was the focal point of a three-day riot in 1969. Once a safe haven where the city's homosexuals could drink and dance free from harassment, the site fell into disrepair following the riots. Today, Stonewall Inn is open once again, for a drink, a dance, or a quick lesson in history. Before the June 1969 riots, the Stonewall Inn, 1969, on Christopher Street was a typical New York City Mafia-run bar: patrons drank over-priced, watered-down, and often bootlegged liquor, there was no running water, and the bar's two dark rooms were often uncomfortably stuffy and hot. It was a dive bar, but one in which the city's homosexuals felt comfortable and at home. As Jerry Hoose, Stonewall patron and founding member of the Gay Liberation Front described, Attachment to Singleton Letter re t Street Renaming Page 2 of 6 "The bar itself was a toilet, but it was a refuge, it was a temporary refuge from the street." On June 28th, 1969 a fairly typical police raid escalated into a three-day riot after the patrons refused to leave the bar. That night, six police officers were pushed back and into the bar by a mob on the street outside. Inside the Stonewall, police and the rioters remained calm as they heard the chaos erupting outside. The bar that police had raided just moments earlier had quickly become their refuge. As officer Pine recalled, "They had a regular entrance which was covered in steel, and it would be very difficult to break in once they closed it. If you had any men in there you had to protect them... you knew the moment you stepped out the door, you knew there'd be hundreds facing you." The historic significance of the Greenwich Village bar and its impact on the LGBT rights movement gained recognition and the site was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places on the 30th anniversary of the riots on June 28th, 1999. On February 16, 2000, the Stonewall Inn became a National Historic Landmark. II. CESAR CHAVEZ As police work to finalize plans for increased patrols on Cesar Chavez Day, a group of Chico State students in California is working to curb what it calls "disrespectful" celebrations of the holiday named for the civil rights and labor leader. Over the past few years, Cesar Chavez Day has become a party day for Chico State students. Some have even compared it to the massive celebrations seen on Halloween and St. Patrick's Day, but members of the Cross Cultural Leadership Club is trying to stop at least one part of the celebration. That would be the sombreros, ponchos and other stereotypical attire that members of the group call "disrespectful." "It is just disrespectful to see how they dress up. They see it as a Halloween day or just a holiday to drink, but it is more than that," Lambda Theta Nu member Jeanette Ochoa said. "This past year, it really hit me that this is a really disrespectful celebration," event organizer Mario Morales said. Those feelings are one of the main reasons Mario Morales decided to organize Tuesday's rally in hopes of teaching students about Cesar Chavez' contributions to labor laws. "He just created a better environment for workers overall. He's the reason we have breaks throughout the day," Morales said. "We should carry that tradition and that legacy that he wanted carried out, instead of getting sombreros and dressing in ponchos and getting drunk on tequila," A.S. President Jay Virdee said. Attachment to Singleton Letter re 70'Street Renaming Page 3 of 6 Those working the booths said they are hoping students will embrace the true meaning of the holiday and get involved with community projects. One such event aimed at doing just that is the C.A.T.S. in the community which is set to help clean up area parks and lend a helping hand at various charities Monday. "We are expecting about 200 people to come out," Virdee said. Morales realizes that many students would prefer to relax and enjoy the day off from school. He's just hopeful that if they do decide to have a few drinks that they tone down the racial stereotypes. "Feel free to celebrate, but just do it in a more respectful way," Morales said. III. NELSON MANDELA. How long an article would you like? ---------------------------------------- POSITIVE FROM NEGATIVE: NEW YORK. CHINATOWN —A Chinatown street could soon bear the name of Pvt..Danny Chen, who grew up in the neighborhood and committed suicide in Afghanistan in 2011 in the face of racially charged hazing. Relatives and those who advocated for justice after Chen's death hope to co- name Elizabeth Street between Canal and Bayard streets "Danny Chen Way," as a way of honoring the 19-year-old soldier who once lived on the block. The proposal will be presented to Community Board 3 on June 11, and if it's accepted it would go to the City Council for final approval. Elizabeth Street." The City Council often co-names streets in honor of people who have performed decades of community work. OuYang said she thought it was fitting to memorialize Chen not just because of his service, but because his death, she said, "led to a historic community organizing effort that led to reforms being passed that led to military court martials unprecedented here." -------------------------------- SOME HISTORICAL NEGATIVES FACTORS IN STREET RENAMING The Philadelphia race riot took place in the predominantly black neighborhoods of North Philadelphia from August 28 to August 30, 1964. Tensions between black residents of the city and police had been escalating for several months over several well-publicized allegations of police brutality.[1] Business activity in North Philadelphia declined even further after the riots, as many of the damaged or destroyed stores never re-opened for business. The riots also helped to facilitate the political rise to power of Frank Rizzo, who favored morePP unitive approaches to crime. P Attachment to Singleton Letter re 1h Street Renaming Page 4 of 6 In 1987, Columbia Avenue between Front and 33rd Streets was renamed Cecil B. Moore Avenue after the influential and often controversial Civil Rights leader. Although his role was limited, Moore has been regarded as a pacifying figure who helped quell the rioting. While present-day Cecil B. Moore Avenue is still largely impoverished, it has witnessed redevelopment, including expansion of the Temple University campus, such that the area around Broad Street is much more integrated with a mostly diverse student population. ---------------- TULSA, Okla. The Tulsa City Council has postponed a vote on whether to rename a street named for a town founder who was a member of the Ku Klux Klan and has been implicated in a deadly race riot nearly a century ago. Dozens of residents spoke at the almost three-hour hearing Thursday, with a majority saying a change was needed to shake perceptions that the city is still racially divided. Supporters of changing Brady Street— many wearing black T- shirts emblazoned with VRENAME BRADY" —outnumbered opponents of the name switch nearly 40-8 as they addressed the council. The street's namesake, Wyatt Tate Brady, was a shoe salesman who became a prominent Tulsa businessman. He signed the city's incorporation papers, started a newspaper and pumped his wealth into promoting Tulsa to the rest of the country. But Brady, the son of a Confederate veteran, was also a member of the Klan. New questions arose after a magazine article looked at whether he was involved in the most notorious event in Tulsa history: a 1921 race riot that left some 300 black residents dead. CBS Tulsa affiliate KOTV-TV reports that on Thursday night there were people who argued the name shouldn't change so the history wouldn't be erased and forgotten while others argued that, while Brady's name belongs in the history books, it doesn't belong on the street signs. -------------------- WATTS Although Watts is often talked about as if it's its own city, it's technically a neighborhood of Los Angeles. It's located on the Eastside of South Los Angeles– neighbored by unincorporated Graham to the north; the cities of South Gate and Lynwood to the east; unincorporated Willowbrook to the south; and the Los Angeles neighborhoods of Century Cove, Harbor Gateway North, and Green Meadows to the west. EARLY HISTORY OF THE AREA What's now the Southland was largely inhabited at least 13,000 years ago by a people who are theorized to have been the ancestors to the modern Chumash people. Some 3,5000 years ago, the Tongva arrived from the Sonoran Desert Attachment to Singleton Letter re 1h Street Renaming Page 5 of 6 and became the dominant nation, establishing numerous villages (such as the nearby Huutngna) throughout the area. The Tongva supposedly referred to the area in which modern Watts is located as Tajauta. SPANISH & MEXICAN ERA Spaniard Gaspar de Portola led an overland expedition through the area in 1769 that set the stage for the subsequent Spanish Conquest. The Spanish first established a mission in the Whittier Narrows region in 1771 and in 1776 moved their mission to its present location in San Gabriel, about 23 kilometers to Watts's northeast. In 1781 the Spanish founded EI Pueblo de Nuestra Senora la Reina de los Angeles, the town which evolved into Los Angeles, about fourteen kilometers to Watts's north. Like most of what was historically the Black Eastside, Watts today is primarily Latino. After the Los Angeles Riots of 1992, many more black residents of the area relocated to more distant communities including in particular those in the Antelope Valley, the Inland Empire, the San Gabriel Valley, Orange County, the San Joaquin Valley, and beyond. At the same time, Latinos, primarily with origins in Mexico and Central America, filled much of the void created by the departure of the previous population. Shortly before the riots, in 1988, Watts was 86% black and 13% Latino. By the mid-1990s the populations were roughly equal. In 2000, the population of Watts was roughly 62% Latino and 37% black. Nowadays it's closer to 72% Latino and 27% black. 34% of current Watts residents were born in another county— in most cases either Mexico or EI Salvador. Attachment to Singleton Letter re 1h Street Renaming Page 6 of 6 Maryellen Babbitt From: miceala thornas <kaylakae03@yahoo.com> Sent: Thursday,August 28, 2014 3:08 PM To: Maryellen Babbitt Subject: Name change of 7th Street Attachments: 20140828 122702 jpg;20140828 123041jpg Aug. 27'h 2014 To Whom It May Concern, On the 201h of this month I along with my entire neighborhood received a letter from the city of Bremerton with a proposed name change for our street. At first as an African American woman I felt pride in the fact that Dr. Kings legacy was to be honored (Finally) in my home town of Bremerton, but then I thought about what the neighborhood that I live in looks/feels like as well as all of the many other MLK streets, drives, and avenues that I've seen in my lifetime and was instantly given reason to pause. You see I'm a new homeowner but generations of my family have proudly called 524 7'h Street their home beginning with my Great Grandparents Albert & Emma Thomas. Over the years I've seen this area deteriorate due to drug abuse, alcoholism, and untreated mental illness. So much so that when it was on the table to purchase my family home my family themselves were worried about my safety. Let that sink in for a moment. By ultimately making the decision to buy I also made the decision to take pride in and work to restore the neighborhood as a whole to what it once stood for. This is one of the last residential streets in the downtown area and with that should come respect &pride instead of the stigma that heavy drug use brings with it. In trying to rectify the name change in my mind I asked myself a simple question... that I will now pass on to you. How would the renaming of 7'h Street honor Dr. King? Keeping in mind everything that his life stands for sadly I couldn't say that it would. Several times a day(on a daily basis) I come face to face with the products of addiction right outside my front door. I think this is largely due to the high volume of foot traffic coming from 7-eleven. But regardless of where they are coming from the fact remains that they are still an ever present blemish to our neighborhood. When you think about what a typical MLK street looks like sadly most of these same issues exist nationally. Why is that? Are we sending a message that because it's a street named for Dr King these things are acceptable because that's the way it's always been? Because I don't see how we're accepting of either; this is a man who laid down his life for his beliefs in equality and so that I may have the opportunity to even write you this letter. The weight of the responsibility that comes with knowing that alone has played a major part in my being opposed to the name change without contingencies for the furtherance of this street instead of paving the way for or standing by watching its decline. To rename a street that's already presenting the stereotypical image of poverty and addiction would be above and beyond disrespectful to such a great mans legacy. I don't know if this is correct but is the name change supposed to be in conjunction with the new youth center that's being built on 8'h and park? If that is indeed the case then why is 81h not being renamed instead? I believe the same issues exist there as well...... So what are we going to do to become worthy of carrying Dr Kings name on either street? Because I believe that without a doubt SOMETHING needs to happen. My neighbors and I have spent time talking about this at length and have come up with some suggestions that would make us all more comfortable with the changing of our street name. As a homeowner on 7'h Street I will not 1 support the name change unless by doing so the city agrees to INVEST in the well being and furtherance of the street to match the legacy for which it's to be named for. • More street lights—especially by the building that takes up half the block... walking by at night is very unsettling • We'd like to commission a local artist to paint a mural on the previously mentioned building. Something that ties in either Dr Kings message of equality or something that speaks to the diversity of Bremerton. • Repair the many holes in the road. • Post speed limit and neighborhood watch signs-passing traffic often races up and down the street with no concern for whom may be out there. • A small monument dedicated to Dr. King at 7 1 &McKenzie • Set up a 7`h street foundation in the proposed project budget so that some of these things will get the funding to be taken care of. • Increased police presence By taking care of this short list the city will be able to tie the name change into the recent update of Pacific further contributing to the preservation of downtown Bremerton. If we're going to do this then I believe that we should put our best foot forward to actually make the name change an honor to Dr. King instead of potentially taking a crumby forgotten street and slapping such a wonderful mans name on it. In conclusion I want to say that I appreciate your time but implore you to consider the gravity of the situation. Please don't allow our street to be renamed unless you(we) are willing to accept responsibility for the power the name holds. We can stay 7`h Street if the state and wellbeing of our neighborhood is to continue to be ignored. Thank you. Sincerely, Miceala M.

Park has more in common with these locations than 7th does. The YWCA is obviously a marginal factor. 8th shares 2 locations you mentioned, one being the new center that is being built and the other being Kitsap Community Resources. 7th is in need of attention. If you've read my email then you are aware of the type of people who routinely come through here. To that end we are in desperate need of better illumination at night. There are spots where people are particularly vulnerable to crime. We have trouble with speeding down this street and small children are often present. We have holes in the road that need attention. As a hard working resident, with a full time job that lives on and invested in this street, I feel like this is a major change that could potentially alter my future and that I have very little say in the matter. I have a lot of pride in this city and my home and want to see both flourish. If this is really what's best for both then I'm fully behind it - but I don't think it is. If this is to be,then I think there should be a "7th St. Foundation" fund attached to this. Money set aside for the revitalization of 7th, piggy-backed on the name change. Unfortunately due to my work schedule I can not attend any of the meetings.

I've been in a number of meetings over the past year with the group requesting the City re-name a street in honor of Dr. King. Comments that I've heard repeatedly is that 7th Street was specifically requested because of the African American 1 Community's connection to this area. The various organizations cited include the 100-year old Ebenezer AME Church, the Opal Robertson Youth and Teen Center,and the proximity to the YWCA and Kitsap Community Resources. Recent City construction projects in the area include the new Fire Station, and the completion of the Pacific Avenue streetscape improvements. The forthcoming Marvin Williams Community Center is the next step in the revitalization of this area, and is directly adjacent to 7th Street. Again,thank you for your comments,they are appreciated.

Tom Knuckey, PE City Engineer 360.473.2376 From: Jim fmailtomotthatkinciftmail.coml Sent: Saturday, August 30, 2014 9:41 AM To: Maryellen Babbitt; Patty Lent Subject: renaming 7th street I am the owner of 520 7th St. I purchased this home almost 2 years ago. At that time the Rich Passage 1 was still testing and the plans to revitalize Pacific were in place. This created confidence as I was thinking along the lines of"look at how this place is improving and how the city cares about it's own well being." Now, I feel I am watching all of that crumble with the renaming of 7th St. In one of my past jobs I traveled the country a great deal and spent time in almost every major city in this country. Any MLK in any city that I have been to is poorly taken care of, run down, and home to the most poverty stricken and uneducated members of that particular community. z As it stands, on an all to often and routine basis the people waking down 7th either belong to the mentally ill and or drug abuser "category." Many times a day I am approached, as I sit on my porch, and asked if either I have or would like to buy drugs. It is an insult to Dr. King's name to attach it to this street in any capacity. If you are resigned to letting this street go to waste then why even bother disgracing the man? In fact, the house next door to me has been trafficking drugs for several years, and most recently Meth. This was condoned by the police by proxy of the fact that when I called the police, which was a joke, the response I got was a very bored ".yeah we know" and several failed promises for call backs and action. Of course the resident of this house was on a fraudulent disability claim so not only did I have to deal with the consistent threat to my safety,the safety of my property,and the apathy of the police, but as a tax payer I had the privilege of paying his salary. It was really fantastic to see all the toxic needles laying on the ground and on their floor when they finally left. THIS is 7th St. How does it honor Dr. King, and how will it improve? It's obvious that you are aware that changing the name will have a detrimental impact or why would you not change Park. I've heard that Patty's reply to that was "too many business'would be impacted." The intrinsic implication is too obvious. I have made a$150,000.00 investment in this street/city and as the owner of one of the the two nicest houses on this street I should have a say. DO NOT RENAME THIS STREET WITHOUT REVITALIZING IT! If the city and Marvin are willing to set up a fund that goes into protecting and revitalizing this street then fine...otherwise I guess I get to watch as I lose everything and my property value decrease year after year?

It was voted in favor of by the entire council. I think that it should be noted that this namingis not about "just two blocks of 7th street it is far more reaching and significant than that. The Naming of this portion of 7th is within walking distance of the Marvin Williams Community Center which will be breaking ground September 19,2014.....Ebenezer AME Church which is the First African American Church in Kitsap and will be celebrating over 100 years serving Kitsap County, as well not forgetting to mention that this is the church that Civil Rights Activist and one of the founding members of our YWCA in Kitsap, Lillian Walker attended. As well there is the Opal Robertson Youth Center that is and has been serving youth of our community and has started a transformation of positive and enthusiasm that is 1 o-o catching like wild fire,then there is the expansion of the Salvation Army. So it is both significant and appropriate that the naming be approved by Council . Lastly the residents of 7th Street have had more than one opportunity to voice their opposition to this naming. Historically when naming is considered it is based more on the residents and community support provided to Council and the City than anything else and it is certainly not based on any input from those who are not residents of Bremerton/Kitsap. It our expectation that the present Council will put this matter to rest once and for all and vote in favor of this endeavor. Thank you!

I have concerns about 7th Ave. and am not sure it rises to the level of significance a street should have for honoring the memory of Rev. Dr. M. L. King Jr. We had a visitor to the Island in July from the King Center in Atlanta that brought together several of our community heritage leaders. i think the MLK Jr. Center staff are impressed with the idea of a street honoring Rev. Dr. King on an educational campus. Perhaps if the Marvin Williams Center were already built and functioning for all, we might be more enthusiastic about that street naming idea on 7th. But if you read my letter carefully, I think that that street and street naming may have problems. If anyone can overcome them, Bishop Larry can. I initially thought that Park Ave could and would make an ideal street as a BLVD rather than Avenue and have it run from downtown past all of the social service agencies as far as the round-about (that divides the street on 13th)and then have it turn to enter into Evergreen Park. Park Ave. has contiguous associations with everything that 7th St has- and a lot more! The year of NAACP meetings never resulted in a final report of which I am aware. I attended two meetings. The last meeting I had with the group had only four attendees and the president later resigned and moved to Texas for reasons unrelated to matters we are discussing.. I do not believe that the new president picked up the ball. The last thing we did at NAACP request was to DRAFTt four petitions for different street proposals - 7th, 16th, Park, and Warren-Wheaton. There is a feeling that the present proposal is primarily the effort of one faith community who own property on 7th and 8th. I see a vision for their recreation center, but have not seen any vision for the street which has huge challenges because of its non-continuous alignment, border with 6th Ave. commercial district, etc etc. How do you deal with the name not following 7th St. all the way across town same as you insisted Park Ave should do? I think the Council could be more creative AND that they could meet with the OC Trustees and OC Student Council to also consider the OC entry on 16th St. as well as 7th St. if there is a vision for 7th street. We really liked Jasmine James idea of"M.L.K. Jr. Dream" Way. The process would seem to be best when it engages the community broadly and not just proponents of one development. As the article, book and academician mentioned point out, the naming of the most successful MLK Streets in America follow, rather than lead, a major community development or infrastructure.Too often an MLK street is placed in a segregated neighborhood and urban renewal remains a dream. Bishop Larry Robertson is a man of action and I know he knows that there is no such thing as a"Black Church" In the world,that is an American phenomenon and one, as a Bermudian minister once told one of our choir members, "that you Americans must t get over." Thus I would be much more enthused if the City was more expressive of what all they may do to assist in the realization of an improved 7th St. Is there a plan for 7th St. same as there was or is for Pacific? Is 7th Street on Bremerton's Six-Year Comprehensive Street Plan? How? We enjoyed a clam bake recently with Mrs. Loxie Eagans and Drew Hansen. I trust they and other community leaders are a part of this City discussion and decision-making. I am unfamiliar with your Council and hopeful that the day will soon come when Bremerton City - and OC - will honor Rev. Dr. King's memory prominently and his vision of"The Beloved Community". Happy Labor Day weekend! With gratitude, Gerald On Aug 29, 2014, at 9:50 AM,Thomas Knuckey wrote: Mr. Elfendahl—thank you for your comments.

Drew Hansen, Tom Knuckey, Bishop Larry Robertson, OC President David Mitchell, Jodie Collins, Patricia Moncure Thomas, Diane Robinson, Kjasmine James, Josh Farley, Christina Henry, T. J. Wheeler and Friends, Congratulations on bringing the issue of a Martin Luther King Jr. street naming up for discussion again in Bremerton. I read about it in this morning's Kitsap SUN. I see that the City Council is discussing it this evening. I would like these comments included in the record of that meeting. I applaud this being on your agenda. It is long overdue to name a roadway in Bremerton. Among all major cities in the continental US with a US Navy Yard, only Bremerton-Kitsap and Everett, WA, have not so honored King as the attached survey notes. I hold Bishop Larry Robertson and his faith community in high regards! I know that his mission is in the best interest of the people of Bremerton. I hold Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his memory in most highest regards. I was privileged to hear him speak in college. He remains an inspiration. I share a friendship with Rev. Dr. Samuel Berry McKinney, emeritus pastor of Seattle's Mount Zion Baptist Church. McKinney and King were Morehouse College classmates and their families were lifetime friends. As an historian and former teacher, we helped arrange for Rev. McKinney to share his and King's history with local high school students. Our State Representative, Drew Hansen, (The Dream: M.L.K. Jr. and the Speech That Inspired a Nation, 2003)joined us one year, as did Kitsap Black Historical Society president Pat Thomas. This inspirational sharing occurred in celebration of the naming (not renaming) by the students of Bainbridge High School's new campus entry road, "Martin Luther King Jr. Lane NE". 7th St. The last time that 7th St. was suggested as the name for a Bremerton street to honor Rev. Dr. King, I felt there were things against it: (1) It minimalized and marginalized King's memory because (2) Seventh Street was only two blocks long; (3) The blocks didn't even align; (4) The proposed street rename was not continuous across town as required, though the street did reappear now and again; (5) The south side of the eastern block was the backside of 6th St. that was commercial making 7th St. seem more like a back alley to 6th Street; (6) It was not a well traveled street; (7) It contained only two cultural resources other than a few single family residences; and because (8) The initiative seemed to be driven by a single interest group - albeit a good one. There were things for it: (1) It intersected Warren Ave., Park Ave. and Pacific Ave. giving some visibility. (2) It had the support of the prominent property owner and was relatively easy to collect signatures of the other properties. (The majority of residents resided in an historic apartment). (3) It contained two cultural resources, an historic WW I era brick Navy officer's apartment building, and a present (and projected) youth and family recreation center; (4) It was suggested that the naming would help to revitalize the area. Park Ave. Park Ave. by contrast seemed to have more going for it: (1) Its property owners and residents were broader based, more diverse; (2) It was more well traveled; (3) It contained many more cultural resources, including: some eleven public and public benefit agencies -governmental and non-profit. They were all marching to Rev. Dr. King's Dream. To name a few: The Municipal Court, Kitsap Legal Services, Kitsap Resource Center, The Fire Station, The Black Historical Museum, Ebenezer AME Church, a community garden, Montessori School, Evergreen Park, and the Oral Robertson Youth & Family Recreation Center. And close by was the MLK Jr. Bldg. / Downtown Library. (4) The roadway connected two important city elements — its downtown cultural core and its largest park. (5) Opportunities for landscape beautification seemed greater as tree-lined boulevards of 4th and 5th Streets downtown connecting with Park Ave. and Evergreen Park. (as a tour with prominent arborist, Olaf'Ribeiro, and city tree activists foresaw); (6) Evergreen Park is where annually is celebrated African American Independence Day - "Juneteenth" (the anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation reaching Texas and Oklahoma); and (7)With new downtown parking facilities and garage, Park Ave. is a natural parade route through town. Further actions We joined two past-presidents of the Black Historical Society of Kitsap County and two members of The Embassy Center in meeting with Mayor Lent. I had spent a few days on 7th St. and Park Ave. and a week writing a 42-page report for Lent and the former City Council. We shared two meetings of the NAACP who you put in charge of hosting discussions to come up with an MLK Jr. roadway naming plan. At one of the NAACP forums, attended predominantly by elder Black residents, Public Works director Tom Knuckey and I were on a panel. I described how Bainbridge High School students named (not re-named) their campus roadway. Director Knuckey described City Ordinances in detail. He told how many letters must be on a sign, what roads must be called (street, avenue, boulevard, way, parkway, etc.), how streets names must be continuous throughout their lengths through town, etc., etc. He did not remind all that these were conditions approved by the City Council who could on majority vote amend them (and occasionally did not follow them exactly but in spirit). I learned here and elsewhere about the Martin Luther King Jr. Building housing the main downtown public library. For me, the highlight of that first NAACP meeting came from a younger person, a student and self-described poet from Bremerton School District's "Renaissance School" - Kjasmine James. She shyly raised her hand and suggested a different idea. She envisioned "Martin Luther King Jr. Dream Way". That idea grew. How many letters in the name? Where would the road go?Who should champion the cause? A national syndicated newspaper column appeared on MLK Jr. Day 2014. It, a book, and a PhD geographer described how M.L.K. Jr. Street names in many cases fail in the US because they tend to re-enforce already existing segregated neighborhoods. So should a roadway named for a national and world civil rights leader be located by neighborhood? Shouldn't a road named for such a figure pass through a place common to everyone. Having such a road or place to inspire us on a campus of learning open to all is a good idea. The Marvin Williams Youth and Family Recreation Center may be such a place. Bremerton may have others. A good one would seem to be - Olympic Collegel 161h St. Right now the entry road to our region's Community College bares the inspirational name . . . "16th Street"! How much better to enter the campus each day on "M. L. K. Jr. Dream Way"? Count the letters. It's legal! It is also well traveled, intersects Warren Ave. and would inspire students. We visited OC students and faculty members one day last spring and found a receptive community. We understand that the trustees have discussed the idea. At the time the administration thought that a large cultural and performing arts center was envisioned for coming years and campus roads may have to be reconfigured. So they were thinking about it. I don't know about future campus plans, but couldn't a road name simply be moved with a re- configured one if and when that happens? Mayor Charles Royer led Seattle in establishing MLK Jr. Way through Seattle, similar efforts led to roadways in Tacoma, Judge Spearman's hometown of Yakima, and in the same year as Bainbridge High School's naming, in Spokane. Bremerton, home of Civil Rights pioneer Lillian Walker, and so many who strive daily to build King's "Beloved Community" here in many ways, is long overdue. It is time to lead, Council, and get this done and done well. Whether 7th St., Park Ave., 16th St., Warren Ave-Wheaton Way or some other street; whether to Marvin Williams Center, Bremerton High School, Olympic College or some other common ground; or if a combination of these, i.e.; M.L.K. Jr. St. on 7th and M.L.K. Jr. Dream Way on OC's campus, we support your efforts to name a.street in honor of the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize and the only US citizen not a President to have a national holiday. And if you cannot decide, form a diverse task force, or better yet, let the young people decide. Often their vision has more clarity. With Gratitude, Gerald Elfendahl 7823 Westerly Lane B.

I'm hoping the Council will put this idea to bed by voting against any attempt to rename the street. The City does not have enough money to properly repave our aging streets let alone renaming them. Our street crews have been doing the best they can to hold them together with crack seal thanks to the TBD funds raised from the fees we pay on our car tabs. As a City resident and tax payer I think it is frivolous and wasteful use of limited funds to rename that street. Dr. King has been sufficiently honored by the renaming of our historic Fifth Street library. This is very generous for a civilian man who never set foot in Bremerton or raised money for our library system. The closest he came to our area was a brief visit to Seattle in November 1961. Being a military town, we've honored presidents and military heroes by naming streets after them and rightly so. Our community would be better served if supporters of Dr. King would encourage increased patronage of the library and it's many resources. I'm sure Dr. King would be very supportive of activities that would develop "content of character".

Sincerely, Christine Grenier Council/Auditor Assistant City of Bremerton (360)473-5280 From: Robert Parker[mailto:parkerCa)net-nw.com] Sent: Friday, August 29, 2014 3:08 PM To: City Council Subject: Street Renaming Dear City Council, I read the Kitsap Sun story regarding the renaming of 7th Street to MLK. While I have the highest respect for this great leader, Mr. King has already be recognized through naming of the library. I would also like to remind the council that Mr. Vern LePratt for a great long time has been told street safety improvements could not be done in his neighborhood due to lack of street funds and that the only way it could be accomplished was if the neighborhood could raise the funds. In addition, Public Works passed on the"Safe Routes To Schools"grant program recently due to a lack of matching grant funds from this same street account. Is this street renaming more important than safety improvements around our schools designed to better protect Bremerton's school aged children? Has the proposing group been subjected to the same standard applied to Mr. LePratt or of a higher need? I am hopeful that Bremerton's Council will reject this proposal as public safety and crosswalks should be a higher first priority over renaming streets. I also seem to remember the Council making statements when this came up last time with public objections that a policy and process would be put in place prior to any more of these type proposals being brought forward. Has that been accomplished?

Doing this type of work, I get requests from the public to track families, home locations, businesses, etc. As a historian, I am concerned with the plan to change a portion of Seventh St. to MLK, Jr. Way. I feel it would be better to name a new street for MLK, Jr. This way, you have not lost the historical information that is part of Seventh St. Another meaningful way to honor Dr. King would be to name the drive that will be a part of the Marvin Williams campus in his name.

Please consider this email as written response. As you know, the Council Study Sessions are an opportunity for a free and open exchange of ideas in a round table format. In my opinion this is an important part of public process where some of the best ideas come forward. Not all ideas proposed are acted upon or popular but all must be considered. The Council will vote on this matter next Wednesday(Sep 17) taking all testimony into consideration. It was repeated several times throughout the meeting that extensive public outreach has already occurred including two mailings, door hangers on all households, personal contact by you and myself, and two public meetings. I believe we share the same sentiment since we have been involved in this extensive process every step of the way. My decision will be based on what I have learned through the entire public process. The results of a final neighborhood public outreach will not be the deciding issue for me but must be added to the body of work as should the testimony next Wednesday. Please know that I care deeply about this subject. There is one more opportunity for public comment. I hope you are able to make the meeting. Your letter will be added to the public record.

However needless to say I was very disappointed and angered by the conduct and discussion by some of the council members. I feel that the integrity and the word of staff and former council member(Myself) was put into question when requesting a second count and a second door to door canvas. In light of that who is to say that those who will do the second door to door canvas can be trusted? I am appalled but not surprised at the politics at play here. How dare we ask this group to pay for the Naming when we have not required it from anyone else. Let us not be partial or have respect of persons. City Council.... do your job with honesty and respect for the citizens of the City Of Bremerton. When I was on council I asked for guidelines to be put in place and updated for this very issue. This group has already met the requirements for this naming twice now. I am asking you as a Council to do the right thing. I further ask you to approve and pass this resolution without any further unwarranted and unfair requests being placed on staff and this group requesting the name change. I ask that the naming be put back on the agenda as a consent item. I would appreciate a formal written response to this email.

In order to address this concern, three Councilmembers (Councilmen Jim McDonald and Mike Sullivan and Councilwoman Leslie Daugs) indicated they intend to go door-to-door on 7th Street prior to next Wednesday's City Council meeting to discuss the proposal. From previous correspondence, I understand your schedule keeps you busy after standard work hours, so I've copied our City Council office in the event you would like to coordinate a discussion with the three Councilors that are attempting to discuss the proposed name change.

I know of at 3 residents not asked which clearly puts, at least for the people actually effected, the "no" ahead of the "yes" votes. Please do not ruin my investment in this city.

Park has more in common with these locations than 7th does. The YWCA is obviously a marginal factor. 8th shares 2 locations you mentioned, one being the new center that is being built and the other being Kitsap Community Resources. 7th is in need of attention. If you've read my email then you are aware of the type of people who routinely come through here. To that end we are in desperate need of better illumination at night. There are spots where people are particularly vulnerable to crime. We have trouble with speeding down this street and small children are often present. We have holes in the road that need attention. As a hard working resident, with a full time job that lives on and invested in this street, I feel like this is a major change that could potentially alter my future and that I have very little say in the matter. I have a lot of pride in this city and my home and want to see both flourish. If this is really what's best for both then I'm fully behind it - but I don't think it is. If this is to be, then I think there should be a 7th St. Foundation" fund attached to this. Money set aside for the revitalization of 7th, piggy-backed on the name change.

I've been in a number of meetings over the past year with the group requesting the City re-name a street in honor of Dr. King. Comments that I've heard repeatedly is that 7th Street was specifically requested because of the African American Community's connection to this area. The various organizations cited include the 100- year old Ebenezer AME Church,the Opal Robertson Youth and Teen Center, and the proximity to the YWCA and Kitsap Community Resources. Recent City construction projects in the area include the new Fire Station, and the completion of the Pacific Avenue streetscape improvements. The forthcoming Marvin Williams Community Center is the next step in the revitalization of this area, and is directly adjacent to 7th Street. Again, thank you for your comments,they are appreciated.

At that time the Rich Passage 1 was still testing and the plans to revitalize Pacific were in place. This created confidence as I was thinking along the lines of"look at how this place is improving and how the city cares about its own wellbeing." Now, I feel I am watching all of that crumble with the renaming of 7th St. In one of my past jobs I traveled the country a great deal and spent time in almost every major city in this country. Any MLK in any city that I have been to is poorly taken care of, run down, and home to the most poverty stricken and uneducated members of that particular community. As it stands, on an all too often and routine basis the people waking down 7th either belong to the mentally ill and or drug abuser "category." Many times a day I am approached, as I sit on my porch, and asked if either I have or would like to buy drugs. It is an insult to Dr. King's name to attach it to this street in any capacity. If you are resigned to letting this street go to waste then why even bother disgracing the man? In fact, the house next door to me has been trafficking drugs for several years, and most recently Meth. This was condoned by the police by proxy of the fact that when I called the police, which was a joke, the response I got was a very bored "yeah we know" and several failed promises for call backs and action. Of course the resident of this house was on a fraudulent disability claim so not only did I have to deal with the consistent threat to my safety, the safety of my property, and the apathy of the police, but as a tax payer I had the privilege of paying his salary. It was really fantastic to see all the toxic needles laying on the ground and on their floor when they finally left. THIS is 7th St. How does it honor Dr. King, and how will it improve? It's obvious that you are aware that changing the name will have a detrimental impact or why would you not change Park. I've heard that Patty's reply to that was "too many business' would be impacted." The intrinsic implication is too obvious. I have made a$150,000.00 investment in this street/city and as the owner of one of the two nicest houses on this street I should have a say. DO NOT RENAME THIS STREET WITHOUT REVITALIZING IT! If the city and Marvin are willing to set up a fund that goes into protecting and revitalizing this street then fine...otherwise I guess I get to watch as I lose everything and my property value decrease year after year?

CIly COUNCIL OEEIT; °ATF 9 /1-7 / u Dear City councilmen, As I am unable to attend the council meeting tonight, I am writing my thoughts on the proposed Seventh Street name change coming before you tonight. It is laudable and wonderful to honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. when it is plausible and possible, but I believe Dr. King, himself, would have found it disconcerting and wasteful for a community to spend precious TAX dollars, sparse as they may be, on his behalf and in this manner. There are so many other ways to spend money as a tribute to his memory. To disrupt the lives of those who live on Seventh ST. is an impact and imposition on a segment of the community let alone confusion to visitors working their way through the streets of Bremerton. I believe Ms. Karen Vargas doesn't realize in pursuing her noble cause that if she were subjected to the address changes and ensuing confusion with her proposal, she would be less enthusiastic. My councilman Roy Runyon is partially on the right track. Seeking financial assistance from those who propose such energetic idealism is at the least, responsible governing and fiscally required to make the most of what we spend as a city. But, it is lacking relief for those who are directly impacted by the name change. Their lives will have interruption and confusion abound. Mayor Patty Lent, bless her heart, is a supporter, but please, as much as it pains me to say, she must be reacting to a vote catching politician's weakness. Her first and foremost responsibility is to be fair and fiscally responsible. Yes there is a sizable portion of our community that identifies with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his ideals and all that he worked for to uplift his brothers and all of us. Many a noble leader from our past has been celebrated by Parades, contributions to worthy causes and letters of reflection as well as books. Maybe Ms. Vargas and her supporters would like to pursue putting more books about Dr. Kings' contributions to society in the school districts. Or maybe she would like to lead some reading study groups to help everyone learn more about her beloved Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. I for one am not in support of the name change for three reasons, the financial reason Mr. Runyon feels is important to consider, the irregularity and confusion of two Martin Luther King Streets named in the community. (Note the off ramp on Highway 3.) And most important, the hardship placed on those residents who will have to adjust all their personal records to accommodate the name change. As is said in the old ball game, three strikes and you're out. I'm completely happy with leaving Seventh Street as it is, neutral and save some tax dollars to be spent on the needs of the entire city. r a If in the future there is a community activity that truly gives Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and his ideals of judging a man on his character not his skin color and uplifting the entire city I will be there in support. Appeasement for the sake of vote gathering, and excess public spending on pet projects or personal self aggrandizement just doesn't do it for me. I urge my city council members to put their thinking caps on and graciously decide to decline the optimistic and enthusiastic request of those who seek to find a way to honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. by offering something less intrusive to those who live on Seventh Street and less costly to the public.

Are Bremerton residents allowed speak briefly at the meetings? Or can you get a message from us into the briefing before tonight's meeting? My husband I wanted to comment on the proposed renaming of Seventh Street for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We were out of town and didn't realize the vote was coming up so soon. Here is what I want to say: (my husband had to work late tonight,but I plan to attend the meeting) We are homeowners, residing on Warren Avenue. We read with interest the recent guest editorial in the Kitsap Sun from another homeowner on the proposed renaming of Seventh Street for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and we feel a great deal of sympathy for her. Unspoken in her piece, but well known to us as former residents of Seattle and Tacoma, is the fact that too often a street named after Dr. King comes to be perceived as part of a ghetto neighborhood, with all the usual stigma attached. To an African-American homeowner working to haul her neighborhood out of that stigma, the renaming can look llike it might do more harm than good. We also understand that changing addresses is a hassle, making a shorter street more desirable for the name change,but it seems to us that naming only 2 or 3 blocks after Dr. King is rather more belittling than honoring him. i So we, Ian Logan and Alison Loris, homeowners since 2008 at 1005 Warren Avenue, propose our street for renaming after Dr. King. Warren Avenue has a mix of residences, businesses, a college, and a bridge. Due to the college and the bridge, the actual number of necessary address changes is less than it would be on many other streets of similar length, yet it is an arterial important enough that renaming it is a significant honor. The businesses and Olympic College print new materials often enough that the name change would not be of great impact. I plan to attend the meeting, as I said, whether or not it is considered appropriate for me to speak.
