Staff have coordinated with PSE on the programmatic conversion of all remaining HPS streetlights to LED the conversion would be executed in small (120-light+/-) contracts with the goal to execute four contracts each year. At this level of delivery all 1,578 remaining HPS streetlights would be converted to LED in approximately 3-years. No City Council action is necessary to execute the conversion contracts; however, for 2023 a budget adjustment of $70,000 is required in the Street Fund to allow the contracts to be executed. ATTACHMENTS: Council Summary FISCAL IMPACTS (Include Budgeted Amount): The 2023 Street Operations budget is increased by $70,000 from REET to implement the Streetlight LED conversion. REET is the best revenue source to fund this program, and results in annual savings to the Street Fund as presented in the Council Summary. STUDY SESSION AGENDA: Limited Presentation Full Presentation STUDY SESSION ACTION: Consent Agenda General Business Public Hearing RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to increase in the Street Fund budget by $70,000 to fund the PSE-owned Streetlight LED Conversion Program. COUNCIL ACTION: Approve Deny Table Continue No Action Form Updated 11/09/2021 \[95 /hb9w{Lhb hC t{9Ώhb95 {w99 \[LDI{ /ƚǒƓĭźƌ {ǒƒƒğƩǤ ЌΉЊΉЋЌ .ğĭƉŭƩƚǒƓķ Street illumination is accomplished using a combination of City-owned and PSE-owned streetlights, along with a few privately-owned streetlights on private streets. To date all 1,008 City-owned streetlights have been converted to LED; however, 1,578 of the 1,788 PSE-owned lights are high pressure sodium (HPS). Currently the HPS lights are replaced by PSE at their expense as they fail, and since these types of lights are being phased out, they are typically being replaced with LED. With the current approach, it is estimated that all HPS lights will be converted to LED in approximately 10-years. To date the City has not been eligible for grants to fund a programmatic LED conversion; however, PSE has advised of a new rebate program that results in a 4-year pay back on the cost of the conversion. The proposed program would convert PSE-owned lights in of 120 lights, with the goal to convert four Phases each year. With this approach all PSE-owned streetlights would be converted to LED in approximately three years. /ƚƭƷƭ ğƓķ {ğǝźƓŭƭ The City pays PSE a monthly tariff to operate and maintain each of its streetlights; for 2022 the total cost was $425,000. There are several different tariffs with different costs depending on the wattage and whether a light is HPS or LED; as an example, the 2022 cost of a 100W HPS light is $14.72/month while a comparable 39W LED light is $11.61/month. Given that the cost to convert a light to LED is $256 and considering the $3/month savings, it takes over 7-years to recoup the conversion cost, which has not been considered cost-effective. PSE rebate program reduces the conversion cost to $143/light which results in a 4-year payback and is considered cost-effective. An added benefit of the LED conversion is can add address customer concerns or improve efficiencies. It is anticipated Smart Node streetlights will be less affected by future rate hikes. The conversion would install new LED lights meeting City standard, including 3000K CCT, and would be completed under four contract phases each year at a net-cost of approximately $17,160 per phase and so Council action is not required. That said, a budget adjustment is required to fund the 2023 work. At the current tariff rate, the annual savings to the City would be approximately $59K once all lights have been converted. It should be noted that PSE advises the rebate value is adjusted each January and could be eliminated at any time. Should the rebate either reduce significantly or cease altogether the City would stop the programmatic conversion. The table below estimates costs and savings assuming all new lights are 39W, and 2023 costs and rebates remain constant. The failure rate of existing HPS lights is not considered. AGENDA BILL CITY OF BREMERTON B4 CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: Study Session Date: February 8 & 22, 2023 Ordinance adding Chapter 9.90 to the COUNCIL MEETING Date: March 1, 2023 Bremerton Municipal Code entitled Department: City Attorney (Continued Presenter: Kylie Finnell discussion from 2/08/2023 Study Session) Phone: (360) 473-2345 SUMMARY: Using alcohol and marijuana in public is prohibited by law. State law does not address the use of controlled substances in public. Using controlled substances in public without a prescription increases public disorder and negatively affects the user. It also negatively affects children and youth and normalizes the use of controlled substances without a prescription. This ordinance would make the use of controlled substances in public without a prescription a misdemeanor. This is consistent with the state law penalty for the possession of a controlled substance. This is not a crime that requires two referrals to treatment before a person can be arrested. Consequently, persons choosing to use controlled substances in public without a prescription would be subject to arrest.

It does not appear that the person is committing assault, rape, theft, or even vandalism at the same time. 2) I am really confused at the comments that a person will be entered into a treatment program. Jail is NOT a treatment program. Can you please tell me the type of medical treatment and support that a person - a HUMAN - going through withdrawal is given in jail? Are the jails adequately staffed to support the increase of medical needs of people going through withdrawal being placed into jail? 3) You cannot force a person into a treatment program. What you can do, by arresting them, is make it harder for them to get housing and a job when they do make the decision to become sober. You, personally, by passing this ordinance, leading to their arrests, continues the viscous circle of the current state. 4) I have unofficially heard that it is very hard for people who are WILLING to go to a treatment program that entry into one in Kitsap county is difficult, particularly if they are addicted to intravenous drugs. Can you please provide actual statistics of the number of beds available in a treatment program for people who use źƓƷƩğǝĻƓƚǒƭ ķƩǒŭƭ within the county of Kitsap on a weekly basis? Within the city limits of Bremerton? Please cite the name of the actual programs and locations along with the number of beds and a verifiable source for the numbers. 5) Please invite the Chief of Police to the study session. I do NOT want to hear what was said at a lunch to a council member/their impression of what the chief said. I don't know who was speaking or I'd call them out directly. That reeks of wink wink nudge nudge good ole boys club and I am shocked that such antics are still in practice whether you meant it that way or not. 6) What is the intent? I'll tell you how it looks from my side. It looks like a thinly disguised - through the manipulation of "good intentions to save lives" - tactic to arrest people, particularly those unhoused and make them "go away" for 15 to 90 days. 7) Jennifer Chamberlain - I don't live in your district so I never voted for or against you. I recalled some things in the past and didn't see how you would fit on the council. I was very WRONG to doubt you and you have my support in however it can happen for the good of the city as a whole. Thank you for your passion and your bravery to continuously stand up for what is RIGHT and for HUMANS. 8) Denise Frey - thank you for listening and being open to changing your position on this issue. It takes bravery as well. 9) It sounds like this will add a huge financial strain and staffing burden on the courthouse staff. I personally do not want my tax dollars going to support such an ... ordinance... is that what you called it? 10) When I worked for the county, I worked in the building where they held Drug Court Graduation. It is a beautiful, life changing program that a person has to both meet strict requirements and voluntarily enter. It takes a lot more, so much more, that needs to be planned out and put in place long before any new arrests start taking place. If you seriously want to propose a similar program, and staff and fund it - from say, golf club money - I would be in support of it.

We need to get back to arresting public drug use and intoxication. If this change will help do that, then let's get it done and start cleaning up our streets again. My family supports changes that hold people accountable for their behavior. More arrests for public drug use and intoxication may mean we can start to clear out homeless (by choice) camps where this behavior is rampant. Will there be a requirement for more law enforcement to implement this change.....if so, we need to start hiring.

Currently, Kitsap County Recovery Center (KCRC) does offer a 3-5 day detoxification service for drugs and alcohol. It is a complicated process. A patient must first go to the hospital and be medically assessed. If the hospital believes detoxification is warranted, they will do a referral to KCRC. This can take anywhere from 2-6 hours on a good day. Only then will the KCRC determine if a bed is available ( 6 beds for men, 3 for women). If available, transport to KCRC is needed. Patient must have current state medical insurance to be admitted. Kitsap Mental Health does not offer any detoxification services. I am unsure what services the Crisis Treatment Center provides. I have heard anecdotal accounts from various local and tribal law enforcement agencies that they have gone the route of bringing a patient to the hospital, waiting for medical clearance for hours and then be informed no bed is available. meant to help our friends and neighbors.

I am a resident within Anna Mockler's district 6. I am a retired co-occurring disorders clinician who worked with non-profits thoughout my employment life, and serve on a couple of advisory boards that address substance abuse, chemical dependency, and how the county can serve the needs of our population that is experiencing these issues, but my opinion is mine alone and I don't represent any organization. This is a complex, painful, and contentious problem, and this draft ordinance as it stands is a blunt approach that places even more power and responsibility in the hands of our overworked police. Charging and jailing people experiencing homelessness for using substances that they may be addicted to, particularly those with chronic and persistent mental illness, ignores the truth that they have no privacy, no place to behave as we have the opportunity to do within the walls of our homes. It also ignores the fact that even if they are ready to address this problem, we don't have treatment available for all who need it, particularly if they are not insured. Jail time and fines result in the probable loss of any existing supports, relationships, furry companions, and any fragile sense of safety that they may still have, and adds another layer of trauma to their difficult lives. Simply, we need to house fellow humans who don't have a home, and not do them further harm. We need to meet them where they are at, and offer what they need without threats; the science is firmly supportive of this. i understand that housing encampments worry us all, and that much division and clamor swirls around that problem. Also, I know that many believe that jail or prison offers an opportunity for change, and that's true for some. However, even if it assists or coincides with "turning someone around", t's a painful opportunity at best, causing further stigma and barriers, and more are not ready for treatment when arrested. I was told about this proposal by Sarah Borden, whom I met last week when she cut my hair. I attended last week's council meeting, when she testified about her own experience with incarceration and recovery, but was unable to interact on Zoom. Before you take the step of approving an ordinance, I hope that you will consider seeking out and listening to the voices of others with lived experience, and also will seek out the opinion of those who currently work in the field, like Kirsten Jewell from the county's Housing and Homelessness division or someone from Kitsap Community Resources, and someone who provides treatment services to this population, like a spokesperson from Agape or West Sound Treatment, or Coffee Oasis. Please give this topic more thought and time. I appreciate your work on the behalf of the community, and thank you for your attention. Helen E.
