Item L. Report on Bids Opened February 6. 1997 for Furnishings, Fixtures and Equipment for City Hall and Award of Contract to Bank and Office Interiors ($67,515.09) Councilmember Nordquist said he would like to discuss which items were included in this expenditure. Community Services Director Paul Mar responded the items were included on the furnishings list provided to the Council when authorization was given to go out for bid. Furnishings include work Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes February 25, 1997 Page 2 stations as well as desk, chairs, etc. Councilmember Nordquist preferred a list of the items purchased be provided to the Council. Councilmember Nordquist recalled Bank and Office Interiors had the state contract and asked if any of the purchases were made on the state contract. Mr. Mar answered his understanding was that the bids were better than the state contract. Councilmember Nordquist asked who evaluated the bids. Mr. Mar answered he and the consultant evaluated the bids. Councilmember Nordquist expressed concern the Finance Committee had not had an opportunity to review the bid. He felt it was inappropriate for the consultant to make such a decision. COUNCILMEMBER MYERS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER MILLER, TO ACCEPT THE REPORT ON BIDS OPENED FEBRUARY 6 1997 FOR THE FURNISHINGS FIXTURES, AND EQUIPMENT FOR CITY HALL AND AWARD OF CONTRACT TO BANK Flail AND OFFICE INTERIORS ($67,515.09). MOTION CARRIED, COUNCILMEMBER NORDQUIST OPPOSED. Item O: Authorization for Out-of-State Travel for Specialized School Councilmember Nordquist questioned sending the Fire Department's mechanic to Norfolk, Virginia to Teel learn how to fix compressors and whether there was a better use of his time. Further, he questioned whether there were other facilities in the City, such as the treatment plant, that could repair the compressor. Student Representative Cuningham asked how often the compressor breaks down. Assistant Fire Chief Tim Whitman answered it was difficult to estimate how often the compressor will break down as it is a new compressor. However, in the past year there have been three or four call -outs. He explained this is a high-pressure compressor and requires a knowledgeable repair person as the high pressure (4,000+ lbs.) can be very dangerous. Currently, only one factory representative, located south of Portland, can repair it. He explained the compressor is used to provide fire fighters' breathing air while inside a smoke-filled building and there is little time to wait for repairs. The last time a repair was necessary, a repair person did not arrive for four days. Therefore, it is desired to have someone locally who can repair the compressor and it seemed logical to train the Fire Department mechanic. Councilmember Haakenson noted the memo indicated this class was included in the 1997 budget; he asked if the class was included in the list of recommended training. Assistant Chief Whitman explained the budgeted amount was not the entire amount needed; he had not included all travel and lodging expenses. Councilmember Haakenson asked if someone would be filling in for the mechanic during his absence. Assistant Chief Whitman answered no. Councilmember Myers asked the affect of a one month delay to allow the Public Safety Committee to review this request. Assistant Chief Whitman replied four classes are offered this year; two are already full. This request is for the October class. Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes February 25, 1997 Page 3 COUNCILMEMBER MYERS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER HAAKE,NSON, TO POSTPONE THIS ISSUE AND PLACE IT ON THE PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE'S MARCH AGENDA. Councilmember Myers invited Assistant Chief Whitman to attend the Public Safety Committee's March meeting. MOTION CARRIED. The item placed on the Public Safety Committee agenda is as follows: O. AUTHORIZATION FOR OUT-OF-STATE TRAVEL FOR SPECIALIZED SCHOOL 3. PRESENTATION BY SEAVIEW ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS Mayor Fahey observed the Seaview Elementary School students were not present. 4. PRESENTATIONBY PAINE FIELD AIRPORT DIRECTOR AND HORIZON AIR REPRESENTATIVE Dave Wagner, Paine Field Director, explained Horizon Air indicated they would not be able to provide a representative at the Edmonds City Council meeting. He pointed out he was not a proponent or representative for Horizon Air but would be able to answer questions regarding Horizon Air. Mr. Wagner explained a few weeks ago, Horizon Air came to the airport and indicated they would like to investigate providing 4 - 5 flights per day from Paine Field to Portland, using Dash 8 airplanes—a 37 seat, twin turbo prop, which is a fairly quiet commuter plane. The service would begin at approximately 7:00 a.m. and continue until approximately 8:00 p.m. Horizon Air feels this service would appeal to business people making primarily day trips to the Portland area and would be primarily from Snohomish County to Portland rather than from Portland to Snohomish County. When Horizon Air was asked by the Mukilteo City Council why this was believed to be a good venture, the representative replied there was no way to determine whether this would be a good venture but they believed there was a need for this service. Horizon Air does not believe the service will greatly expand or reduce traffic at SeaTac. They plan to retain their every half hour shuttle from SeaTac to Portland. Mr. Wagner explained the service would be provided from the present Paine Field air terminal. The air terminal included $600,000 in its 1997 budget for upgrades (prior to Horizon Air expressing interest in providing service from Paine Field). The upgrades would repair a leaking roof, upgrade electricity, provide ADA restrooms, provide an addition for flight -line services, and upgrade windows. This upgrade has been put on hold to ensure changes are not made prematurely. Councilmember Myers asked if Paine Field had metal detectors. Mr. Wagner answered Horizon Air would provide a metal detector and x-ray machine. Councilmember Haakenson asked the sentiment of the local citizen's group. Mr. Wagner replied it is his understanding that the group sees Horizon's proposal as not having a tremendous impact on the community. However, they are very concerned that the number of flights could increase or bigger airplanes be used, along with other impacts such as noise, traffic, and unsavory activities such as occur around SeaTac. Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes February 25, 1997 Page 4 Councilmember Haakenson asked if there was a designated flight path. Mr. Wagner answered all airplanes arriving and departing from Paine Field on Instrument Flight Rule (IFR) would be controlled by the FAA and would use the same flight paths that currently exist. He distributed a brochure with a graphic illustration of the noise footprint of stage 2, stage 3, and commuter airplanes. Councilmember Haakenson asked if additional public meetings were scheduled. Mr. Wagner answered yes; the Paine Field Community Council met two weeks ago and will meet again in approximately one month to discuss Horizon Air issues. A special edition of the airport's quarterly newspaper will also be published to provide information regarding Horizon's proposal. Councilmember Miller said asked what mitigating factors Horizon identified in Everett to address any negative impacts as a result of moving some of their operations to Paine Field. Mr. Wagner answered Horizon's proposal would not greatly impact traffic as it would be similar to an additional class offered in the Everett Community College building at the airport. The airport has sufficient parking for the service; long-term parking could present a problem but would depend on the volume. He pointed out Boeing has approximately 20,000 employees who pass the airport twice a day on Airport Road which is three lanes in each direction. The airport currently has approximately 160,000 operations per year, Horizon's proposal would increase this 3,600 (a 1-2% increase). He pointed out the Dash 8 airplane has approximately 20-30% of the noise footprint of a Boeing 737. Councilmember Miller asked whether their flight path would cross Edmonds. Mr. Wagner described the north and southbound flight paths noting it would be unlikely planes would fly directly from Portland to Paine Field (over Edmonds) as that would include flying over SeaTac. North -south traffic in the Puget Sound area is directed away from SeaTac 10-15 miles; therefore traffic would be closer to the mountains or over Puget Sound. Councilmember Nordquist asked which field would be the auxiliary if Paine Field is fogged in. Mr. Wagner said planes would likely not take off from Portland. If they were airborne, the plane would likely go to SeaTac or Boeing Field. Paine Field is a divert for Boeing Field and SeaTac now; however, the number of planes coming to Paine Field when it is foggy at SeaTac or Boeing Field has decreased in recent years. Mayor Fahey thanked Mr. Wagner for his presentation. Mr. Wagner offered an individual or group tour of the airport and/or a slide show. He offered to send a copy of the quarterly "Paine Field Report" to the Council. 5. REVIEW OF CITY PARK MASTER PLAN AND ITS IMPLICATIONS Community Services Director Paul Mar explained in addition to the information in the packet, the Council was also provided the Master Plan and some updated correspondence. Mayor Fahey noted the Master Plan was provided as many Councilmembers may not have seen it before. Mr. Mar displayed a diagram of the pre -1995 Master Plan (existing condition). He explained the Master Plan vision was driven by several factors including parking, vehicle circulation within the park, the need to reorganize play and picnic areas for higher visibility and separation of functions, and consideration of upgrading or relocating structures. He displayed projects completed in 19954996 which included the children's play area, some picnic shelters, paving of the parking lot, and construction of the ADA Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes February 25, 1997 Page 5 pathway system. He displayed the projects outlined in the 1997 Capital Improvement Program which include creation of the two-way road and the parking area and elimination of the north exit. Councilmember Van Hollebeke asked if landscaping would be planted on the north side to create a buffer. Mr. Mar answered yes, the road would be replaced with landscaping. Councilmember Myers asked if widening of the entrance on 3rd Avenue would require removal of any trees or vegetation. Parks and Recreation. Manager Arvilla Ohlde answered some tree removal would be required; consideration has been given to not having an entirely straight road to avoid impacting large trees. Mr. Mar explained projects beyond 1997 which include water issues in the central area and the maintenance buildings in the southwest corner. Councilmember Nordquist asked what the time frame was for "beyond". Mr. Mar answered much of it depends on the availability of funding. Councilmember Nordquist recalled the Council directed staff to proceed in 1992 which has not yet been done and the matter was again discussed at last year's retreat. Mr. Mar explained the development of the Master Plan was based on several polices—only build what the City can afford to build at the time, keep the park operational, and allow for viable phases. He noted any projects beyond the original approval require a public hearing process and ADB approval. Mr. Mar explained the facilities (building) maintenance and parks maintenance are currently located in the southwest corner of City Park. Prior to 1989, both were under single management; separate management was implemented in 1989. Facilities maintenance was included in Public Works and parks maintenance was included in the Parks and Recreation Division. The facilities maintenance division is scheduled to move to the new Public Works Center at 210th and 72nd. He identified the unbuilt footprint that has been designated to house central storage and the facilities maintenance function, a structure which has been estimated to cost approximately $500,000. When. the Public Works facility was designed, it was determined all programs could not be accommodated at that time and the decision was made to keep the building maintenance function in City Park location until sufficient funds were available. Councilmember Nordquist pointed out the importance of the Council tracking action on their decisions. He reiterated his question when the Master Plan would be completed. Councilmember Miller noted the Master Plan appeared to provide an option of moving the facilities maintenance to the Public Works site or having it remain at the present site. He was not totally convinced that it was in the best interest of the City and citizens to move the maintenance facility. Mr. Mar said the Council and staff s intent was to move facilities maintenance to the Public Works Center and that is why a footprint was designated to accommodate that function. The only reason it has not yet been moved is cost. Whether park maintenance should remain in the park was discussed at length during the development of the Master Plan and is still under discussion. He noted the Council packet included an estimate of the park maintenance function's space needs, prepared in 1991 by then Park Supervisor Pat Harris. Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes February 25, 1997 Page 6 Councilmember Nordquist referred to last year's retreat packet and a letter dated July 14, 1993 from Arvilla Ohlde to Sydney Locke which stated the City's intention to use the area for recreational purposes. Councilmember Nordquist said if this was not the intent, it should be changed and the public informed. Councilmember Haakenson asked if a cost estimate for relocating the park maintenance facility to another site had been prepared. Mr. Mar answered no. Councilmember Van Hollebeke observed moving the facilities maintenance function to the Public Works Center was an economic issue. He pointed out moving the parks maintenance function was a separate issue, noting most cities have a service facility within their parks and it seemed appropriate to have that function within the bowl area. Further, the City must ensure they are good neighbors (appearance) to the residents around the park. His observation of the park from several vantages indicated there was a legitimate concern with extraneous materials. He recommended immediately consideration be given to cleaning up the area and eliminating items not necessary for a park maintenance facility as well as providing screening along Pine Street if materials cannot be eliminated completely. He also suggested a public hearing be held on the Master Plan which could address the time table. Councilmember Myers observed the Council made the Master Plan a high priority in 1992 and recognized circumstances may have changed including the cost factor. He favored the present Council discussing their intent for proceeding with the Master Plan. He recommended the area being cleaned up as much as possible and consideration be given to the Council holding a public hearing. Mr. Mar agreed staff would clean up the area and ensure it was maintained. He suggested staff prepare a cost analysis of relocating the maintenance facility prior to a public hearing. Staff would be agreeable to a public hearing. Mayor Fahey requested staff be allowed 2-4 months to prepare an analysis of the ramifications of relocating to the Public Works Facility. She pointed out that although there was discussion of the possibility of using the old Public Works site as an alternate location, there was no analysis done to determine if it would be a feasible site or what impact it would have on citizens in that area. She advised this information could be gathered in the next three months and be followed by a public hearing. Councilmember Nordquist pointed out staffs recommendation indicated there are buildings in disrepair; he requested a cost estimate be provided of the cost to repair these buildings if they were retained in their present location. Councilmember Haakenson agreed with Councilmember Myers' recommendation. 6. FINANCIAL REPORT ON IMPLICATIONS OF THE HUMAN RESOURCES STUDY Personnel Manager Brent Hunter explained this was a follow-up to the discussion at the Council retreat. He provided a brief background of the Human Resources Study authorized by the Council in 1996, noting it has been 30 years since a comprehensive study of this nature was done. He explained the consultant recommended, 1) a new position, Assistant to the Mayor, 2) a computer specialist to place greater emphasis on technology, 3) a Development Service Specialist to assist in permitting, 4) the Utilities Director position, and 5) more emphasis on Parks and Recreation. He explained the. classification and compensation study included development of new job descriptions for all City Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes February 25, 1997 Page 7 employees as well as a salary survey. The salary survey indicated the City's wages were slightly below the median (19 comparable cities in the Puget Sound region were surveyed). Mr. Hunter indicated, in response to a question which was raised at the Council retreat regarding the cost of implementing the plan over a three year period, that information has been included in the Council packet. He explained Council President Earling requested staff identify the costs per year as well as possible funding sources to cover the costs. Mr. Hunter displayed the Implementation Cost for the Human Resources Study Over Five Years and explained the cost of the classification portion of the plan (employee salary increases to bring them to the median) and roll -up costs for each succeeding year. He noted the intent is to implement the classification plan beginning in July 1997 with adjustments each July for the following five years. He described the cost of the new positions (a clerk in the Mayor/Personnel office mid -year 1997, a clerk in the Fire Department mid -year 1997, a Police Officer in 1999, a Recreation Business Manager in 1999, a clerk in Personnel in 2000, a full-time Council Assistant in 2000, another Police Officer in 2001, a Fire Training Officer in 2001, a Police Clerk in 2002, and a Court Clerk in 2002). He described costs for position upgrades (Assistant to the Mayor, Parks and Recreation Director, and Public Works Director) and two new positions, Development Services Director and Technology/Information Specialist. He noted a technology study is recommended in 1998. Mr. Hunter displayed and described possible funding sources for COLA's on existing positions, and costs of classification, new positions, and re -organization, which included budgeted revenue/salaries, Fund #008, cash carry-over, forecast increases, and annexations. Councilmember Miller pointed out the three year implementation appeared to be less expensive than the five year implementation. Councilmember Myers agreed. Administrative Services Director Housler said further research would be necessary. 7. MAYOR Mayor Fahey directed the Council's attention to the memo Community Services Director Paul Mar provided regarding actions being pursued in the Meadowdale area. Mayor Fahey reported she spent a very informative two days in Olympia. She pointed out there are a number of issues being considered that can affect the City such as legislation to reduce revenue sources for the City as well as legislation requiring more mandates without the ability to pay for them. She noted transportation needs are a big issue; the streets and highways throughout the state are in need of repair and improvements as well as capital projects that have no funding. She stated it has been seven years since there was any increase in the gasoline tax; therefore, serious consideration is being given to an increase. It is important citizens contact their Legislators regarding the need for this increase to meet transportation infrastructure needs. Mayor Fahey thanked the Council for an exceptionally good retreat. 8. INDIVIDUAL COUNCIL REPORTS/UPDATES ON RESPECTIVE BOARD MEETINGS Councilmember Myers said Legislators do respond to individual citizens. He encouraged citizens to contact their Legislators and provide input in the process. He thanked everyone for the benefit derived from the retreat. Edmonds City Council Approved Minutes February 25, 1997 Page 8 Councilmember Van Hollebeke pointed out the value of the Council retreat as it allows Councilmembers to concentrate on issues and look, to the future. He complimented staff on their professional presentations. Councilmember Haakenson echoed Councilmember Van Hollebeke's comments. He reported Councilmember White is the new Council liaison to the Port. Councilmember Miller complimented staff and the Council on the retreat and agreed the retreat is an opportunity for the Council to review all information. He noted one of the most exciting issues for him was the Edmonds Crossing Project which has a great deal of potential for the City's future economic success. He encouraged citizens to "stay tuned" as it is an exciting time in the City. Councilmember Nordquist expressed his appreciation for the retreat. He reported he has completed visits with the six Health Board committees. The Health Board's retreat will be held in April and will include long range planning as well as review of the Board's commitment to policies. He directed the Council's attention to the Daily Journal article regarding the church and to the land use battle occurring in Lake Tahoe. In addition, he displayed an RTA tax map, noting sales tax will now vary from 8.2% in some areas to 8.6% in other areas. Councilmember White said citizens with questions about the Port's reconstruction were welcome to attend the Board meetings on the second and last Monday of the month at 7:00 p.m. He reported plans for the Cultural Arts Stadium Convention District facility look very favorable. He reiterated previous comments regarding the retreat. With no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 8:33 p.m. BARBARA S. FAHEY, MAYOR SANDRA S.
