The Edmonds City Council virtual online meeting was called to order at 5:30 p.m. by Mayor Nelson.
Councilmember Buckshnis raised a point of order, asking whether the agenda should include approval of
the agenda. Council President Paine said that was her error.
COUNCILMEMBER BUCKSHNIS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCIL PRESIDENT PAINE, TO
ADD APPROVAL OF THE AGENDA AS ITEM 2.

Councilmember Olson raised a point of order, pointing out the Council had already approved the agenda.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas relayed her understanding that the Council could still add to the agenda
as long as there was a vote. City Attorney Jeff Taraday explained at a special meeting there is no need to
take roll because there is no consequence to being absent. If the Council wanted to call roll, that could be
done, but it would be clear from the record who was present.

2. COUNCIL BUSINESS
1. COUNCIL DISCUSSION REGARDING RESUMING IN -PERSON MEETINGS
Council President Paine explained the agenda memo outlines several of the issues that the Council needs
to discuss and make a decision on with regard to proceeding with in -person meetings including when to
resume in -person meetings, how committee meetings will be handled, meeting options (fully remote or a
hybrid), and whether to continue taking public comments via email.
When do we resume in -person meetings?
Council President Paine said she had anticipated resuming in -person meetings on July 13'; however, the
courtroom is not available until 6 p.m. which interferes with Council committees on July 13t''. She proposed
the Council resume in -person meetings on July 20'.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas said July 20' sounded reasonable. She pointed out Council President
Paine has had the authority to make this decision on her own. She appreciated Council President Paine
reaching out to the Council, but it is an administrative decision that she could make without the Council's
input.
Councilmember Distelhorst agreed with resuming in -person meetings on July 20t''. In looking the extended
agenda, committee meetings and the Council meeting are already scheduled for July 13t' beginning at 4:00
p.m. so if there is a conflict with the municipal court, it might be better to resume on July 20' and allow
the extended agenda to remain as is for the committees and the regular meeting scheduled on July 12'.
Councilmember Olson said she has been anxious to begin meeting in person since mid -May when the
restrictions changed with regard to spacing and meeting in person. Although she wanted return to in -person
meetings the sooner the better, a one week delay is not that critical.
Councilmember L. Johnson expressed appreciation for Council President Paine including the Council in
this conversation and taking into consideration that each Councilmember's life is different and they may
have different circumstances such as someone who is immunocompromised or children in the home under
age 12 as well as sharing space with the municipal court and working with them to find a plan that
accommodates everyone. She was in favor of resuming in -person meetings on July 20t''. She recognized
there had been some discussion in the public and on social media regarding why this was happening as well
as a feeling that some Councilmembers were playing into it. It is unfortunate if Councilmembers were
playing into it as all the considerations have been upfront and well communicated. She summarized we are
coming out of a pandemic and there needs to be some flexibility. She appreciated the conversation, but
wished the games would stop.
Council President Paine appreciated the Council's comments and thoughts as well as the work of
administrative staff behind the scenes to put meetings together. The Council does not have its own tech
department; it would be nearly impossible to do Zoom meetings without the support of the IT Department
and direction from FIR about workplace considerations. Coming out of a pandemic is very unusual and she
anticipated there would be glitches coming back together. She wanted to have as much discussion about
this as possible because she wanted Councilmembers to feel included. She was eager return to Council
Chambers because that location offers a level of access in a very public way.
Councilmember Buckshnis agreed, stating she had already expressed her opinion to Council President Paine
via email. She agreed Council President Paine could have made the decision on her own. She was unsure

7.1.a
what was being said other than people were complaining so she was unsure what Councilmember L.
Johnson was talking about. As committee meetings are not logistically possible next week, she agreed with
resuming in -person meetings on July 20' although she will likely be on vacation in Oregon for a wedding.
Everyone is anxious to come to meetings and make comments.
Mayor Nelson relayed there was unanimous support for resuming in -person meetings on July 20tn
Committee Niehts: What do we want to do?
Council President Paine referred to options in the agenda memo, a) return to the prior system of meeting in
Council Chambers and forego the regular Council meeting, or 2) have committee meetings begin earlier in
the evening in separate rooms followed by a regular Council meeting. She invited Council input on those
or other options.
As someone who attends all the committee meetings, Councilmember Olson said she has noticed committee
meetings are not as well attended by the community as regular meetings. She suggested committee meetings
continue in a remote manner.
Councilmember Distelhorst said that was an interesting idea to explore, pointing out when committee
meetings are held at the same time, there is not a lot of accessibility for local media or people who want to
monitor committee meetings. Having committee meetings on Zoom at staggered times provides better
accessibility.
Councilmember Buckshnis disagreed with the current committee structure as one hour was not sufficient
to discuss the City's finances. The Finance Committee has had to truncate their meetings and hold special
meetings to discuss bonds, bond refinancing/refunding, etc. which is a very important aspect of the City's
financial future. The last special Finance Committee meeting was in May and there were plans to hold
another one. The Parks & Public Works (PPW) Committee has also had lengthy agendas with not enough
time for their agenda items. Committee meetings are an opportunity for one-on-one discussions with staff.
She supported returning to in -person committee meetings in separate rooms that are either video or audio
recorded. It is important to spend time with the administration on issues such as the WWTP, bond financing,
Civic Field, etc. These issues take a lot of time and one hour is not sufficient for detailed discussion.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas suggested not having a Council meeting following committee meetings.
That would allow all the committees to meet and perhaps schedule more time for some committees. She
has served on all three committees; in her opinion the Public Safety, Planning & Personnel (PSPP) could
be done in 45 minutes and time could be added to the Finance and/or PPW Committee meetings. For
example, the PSPP Committee could be 45 minutes, Finance Committee 1 hour 15 minutes, and the PPW
Committee could be as long as necessary because it typically has the most agenda items. In the past, on
occasion there was a Council meeting after committee meetings but only it was usually for very important
issues with a short timeline, not general Council business. The Council has gotten into the habit of holding
a Council meeting after committee meetings. She found it exhausting to attend a committee meeting before
Council meetings that last until 10 p.m. and she anticipated it was exhausting for the public and staff. She
supported returning to committee meetings back-to-back so they can be videorecorded and not have a
Council meeting following committee meetings unless it is an emergency.
Council President Paine agreed with finding a schedule that works for all the committees such as recording
via Zoom either in person or remotely and holding a Council meeting only for special business. She
reviewed the meetings held prior to COVID and found there were often regular Council meetings before or
after committee meetings. Committee meetings could start 6 or 7 p.m. and either be held simultaneously or
at staggered times.

7.1.a
Councilmember Distelhorst voiced support for not having a regular meeting after committee meetings
which would remove the shot clock of packing in three hours of meetings before 7 p.m. The PPW
Committee often has 75-90 minutes of agenda items jammed into 60 minutes. That would provide a lot
more flexibility, and a special Council meeting could be added if something time sensitive needed to be
addressed.
Councilmember L. Johnson spoke in favor of continuing the Zoom format for committee meetings. There
are a lot of logistics with holding multiple meetings with multiple players and it requires staff to be present
after a long day of work. Retaining the Zoom format is more flexible and makes it easier for staff to attend
multiple meetings. For the time being, she preferred to retain the Zoom format for committee meetings.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas said she was fine with Councilmember L. Johnson's suggestion although
she did not particularly care if committee meetings were via Zoom, in -person or a hybrid. Until the new
COVID variant is defined and cleared up, it may not be a bad idea to utilize a hybrid for committees and
regular Council meetings. She will go with the majority, but said Councilmember L. Johnson raised a good
point about Zoom meetings and it is much easier to participate via Zoom, particularly for staff. Staff begins
work early Tuesday mornings and are often present until 10 p.m.
Council President Paine recommended the Council start committee nights at 6 p.m. with a hybrid model,
with the order of the meetings to be determined.
Councilmember L. Johnson asked for clarification whether the hybrid was for Councilmembers,
participants, staff, or the public. She was concerned if it was hybrid for Council or staff, it will be politicized.
She encouraged the Council to reach consensus regarding how to move to forward with committee meetings
so it is clear and there is no miscommunication.
Councilmember Olson reiterated her experience that fewer people attend committee meetings, therefore
she was satisfied with continuing with remote access to committee meetings for everyone for simplicity
sake; a hybrid is logistically more difficult. She preferred to have all the committee meetings held at the
same time; staff that needs to be in multiple places could move between meetings and the agendas could be
planned to allow that. She preferred to have committee meetings videoed for Councilmembers and the
public to watch later as she found she gets a lot more information at committee meeting than she is otherwise
privy to.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas commented there was a reason why committee meetings were not held at
the same time, but she could not recall the reason. She also recalled meetings had to be held in the Council
Chambers to be televised. She felt holding meetings at the same time was not very transparent and created
issues for staff and the public. She did not have a vested interest with a particular way but wanted it
considered from citizen's as well as staff's point of view. Councilmembers are flexible and can adapt, but
it is more difficult for staff and public to move to the different rooms. She suggested holding the easiest
committee meeting first, then the next easiest meeting, and have the PPW Committee meetings last so it
could be the longest. She recalled PPW Committee meetings lasting 2-3 hours in the past.
Mayor Nelson said in his discussions with Directors, they appreciate having the meetings staggered as it is
chaotic to present an item at two committees. Council Chambers is the only place with microphones and
cameras; other meetings could be recorded in a Zoom format with Councilmembers starting and stopping
the Zoom meetings.
Councilmember Buckshnis recalled the meeting times were staggered because they could not be recorded
simultaneously. She has been on all the committees in the past and recalled Finance Committee meetings
have lasted 2-3 hours. Citizens are not upset about committee meetings because items are then on Consent

or presentations made to full Council; citizens are interested in what the Council is doing at regular and
special meetings. She preferred to meet in person but understood some people do not want to and like the
technology of Zoom. She summarized one hour is not sufficient for the Finance or PPW Committee
meetings.
Councilmember L. Johnson recalled when committee meetings were held in person pre-COVID, the
meetings were not video recorded and there was only an audio recording and minutes. This is an opportunity
to take what has been learned from this unfortunate situation including the ability to record remote
committee meetings. She found a video preferable because people often get more from watching something
than reading it. She did not want to surmise whether citizens did or did not find value in committee
meetings. In the past it was more difficult, but now they have the opportunity. She summarized it was
important to continue having the video available and to make the best of what was learned during the
pandemic.
Councilmember Distelhorst summarized what he has heard, committees remain fully remote, change the
timing of the meetings, and record the meetings via Zoom.
A MOTION WAS MADE BY COUNCIL PRESIDENT PAINE AND SECONDED, TO DO
COMMITTEE MEETINGS BY ZOOM ON THE SECOND TUESDAY AND START WITH THE
PSPP COMMITTEE AND DECIDE HOW TO NAVIGATE THE LENGTHIER COMMITTEE
MEETINGS.
Mr. Taraday pointed out the agenda calls for discussion only so the Council cannot take final action. There
would need to be ordinance drafted to amend the City code and any voting would be preliminary and the
final action would be taken when an ordinance was drafted to conform the City Code with Council direction.
Councilmember Buckshnis raised a point of order, Mr. Taraday said the Council cannot make a decision.
Mayor Nelson clarified Mr. Taraday said this wouldn't be the final decision; an ordinance on a future
agenda would be the final decision.
Council President Paine asked for input regarding holding Finance and PPW Committee meetings on Zoom.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas commented that did not need to be decided tonight. She suggested Council
President Paine work with the committee chairs to determine the time they need. If the meetings will be
held on Zoom, she was fine with starting the PSPP Committee at 4 p.m.
Councilmember L. Johnson commented the 4 p.m. start time was not necessarily ideal. If there would not
be a regular Council meeting following committee meetings, she preferred to have committee meetings
start later to accommodate other schedules.
COUNCIL PRESIDENT PAINE WITHDREW THE MOTION.
Council President Paine said she will work with the committee chairs.
Council Meeting Options — Fully Remote, Hybrid A (the type of participation is fullyoptional, anyone can
be in -person or participate via Zoom), Hybrid B (Elected officials and staff participate in -person while
residents and others have the option to be remote)
Council President Paine explained the Council needs to find the best hybrid option. The Governor's
mandate says everything must have a hybrid option. There is strong consensus to return to in -person
meetings. Her preference is Hybrid A.

7.1.a
Councilmember Olson liked the idea of a hybrid for the sake of captioning which has been a great addition
via the Zoom format. She did not support either Hybrid A or B fully, for reasons related to the pandemic;
if an elected official feels they cannot attend in -person meetings, that should be honored. However, in
general, electeds need to be there, show up and be responsive to the public who attends and want to see
them face-to-face. She recommended Councilmember be encouraged to attend in -person.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas expressed support for Hybrid A; it is important that those who do not
feeling safe to have that opportunity. There are some that feel Councilmembers should be held to a different
standard than the general public, but there may some who have health issues. She was not crazy about
Hybrid B which allowed residents and others the option to be remote. Citizens have submitted numerous
emails about wanting to come in -person to testify before Council so that should be a requirement for
citizens. She supported citizens retaining the ability to submit letters/emails. She anticipated most
Councilmembers who could be in -person would be as they takes their work very seriously, more seriously
than just about any other Council.
Councilmember L. Johnson appreciated Councilmember Olson's comments regarding flexibility. There has
been a pandemic; it is a whole new world and she was not sure what to expect going forward. For example
if she had a cold or allergies, was it appropriate for her to attend sniffling and sneezing or would it be better
or more courteous for her to stay home. She preferred to retain flexibility, recognizing that none of us have
ever been through something like this. The Council could have the best intentions and say what will work
now, but quite likely there will need to be flexibility to shift in the future. Councilmembers signed up to do
this because they like to engage with the public. There have been sacrifices related to participating via
Zoom from home; families have to give up privacy, kids have to be quiet, spouses sometimes cannot go to
bed until midnight because the only quiet corner is being used. The Council wants to get back but has done
what needed to be done in order to best serve the public. She looked forward to the ability to meet in -person,
but also retain the flexibility for whatever comes next.
Council President Paine commented the decision whether someone appears in public and in a public forum
is up to that person. There are conditions and situations where the most vulnerable needed to be considered.
She strongly encouraged Hybrid A where the type of participation is fully optional.
Councilmember Distelhorst agreed; he appreciated the flexibility and being respectful of everyone's
comfort levels, their health and the health of their family. He supported Hybrid A as well as retaining the
ability to take public comment via email because that provides a great option for people who are working
during Council meetings or have other commitments.
Councilmember Buckshnis said Hybrid A or B was fine with her. The most important part was allowing
citizens to come to meetings. She pointed out even though we're all vaccinated, some people are not and
there is always the possibility of contact with the virus. Captioning is another advantage that has been very
well received in the community. She supported having emailed public comments read into the record.
Council President Paine summarized the Council consensus is a hybrid and to continue to take public
comments via email.
Council President Paine relayed she received a text from Councilmember K. Johnson that she is having
intemet issues and is unable to appear because she is using her phone.

3. ROLL CALL
Deputy City Clerk Nicholas Falk called the roll. All elected officials were present, participating remotely.
Councilmember Buckshnis suggested moving the presentation, Item 4.1, to Unfinished Business Item 8.1.
The Council has seen it numerous times, before Council, behind closed doors and in committee, and it was
time to vet it as unfinished business. She asked City Attorney Jeff Taraday if that could be done. Mr.
Taraday asked for clarification whether her intent was to make the presentation 8.1. Councilmember
Buckshnis said citizens and Council have had sufficient time to look at and understand the Civic Field
process as well as being aware of it through public media releases, presentations to the Finance Committee
and twice to Council. She summarized it was time to talk about it because citizens are anxious. Mr. Taraday
said the Council was free to reorder the agenda; this is regular meeting, the Council can do whatever it
wants.

COUNCILMEMBER BUCKSHNIS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER K. JOHNSON,
TO MOVE THE PRESENTATION ITEM 4.1 TO ITEM 8.1.
Councilmember Buckshnis commented the April 13' Finance Committee meeting included a presentation
regarding Civic Field. The Council has reviewed it several times over the past 7-10 years and everyone is
aware of the project and what the Council's discussion should be about. A presentation does not allow time
to ask questions and as the Council has plenty of time tonight because an item was pulled from the agenda,
she suggested the Council begin vetting the project as there are issues related to bonding that are time
sensitive as well as other issues that are not discussed during presentations.
Council President Paine did not support moving this agenda item. This is the first presentation for the
public; there will be a presentation to the Finance Committee next week regarding the topics
Councilmember Buckshnis mentioned. The presentation is an opportunity to introduce the project to the
broader public.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas encouraged Councilmembers not to support the motion. Staff s
recommendation is a request for Council to consider three components to enable the start of the Civic Center
Playfield Park project, 1) approve the three contracts, 2) selection of project alternatives and 3) address the
project funding gap by committing to developing a funding program in the future to complete the two-year
project. She supported continuing discussion regarding this project, pointing out the south beach project
has been on the agenda much longer than this project and has not moved forward. The cost of this project
is upward of $15M at this point and is not something that should be done in a box. In addition to the expense,
there are no real parks in the Highway 99 areas other than one park with two parking spaces. If there is an
opportunity to develop a park, she preferred to develop park space on the Highway 99 corridor.
Councilmember K. Johnson raised a point of order, that the Councilmembers comments were off the topic
of the motion. Mayor Nelson agreed and suggested comments focus on the park that is the topic of motion.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas said before this park is approved, she wanted an opportunity to discuss a
the impacts it will have on the rest of Edmonds. She wanted the Council to take a careful look before voting
on this project. cm
0
Councilmember Olson commented citizens are ready to move forward on this project and she had no w
objection to how it was listed on the agenda. Councilmembers can listen to the presentation and have the
conversations that are allowed and if a Councilmember was not satisfied, they could make another motion m
during approval of the agenda to have further discussion. She will vote no on this motion and see what
happens during the presentation.°
Q
Councilmember K. Johnson said she supported having the presentation tonight as long as there was
discussion in two weeks. This is an opportunity to have a presentation and learn the facts and for the public
to make public comment in two weeks. She asked if the Council President anticipated there would be
discussion in two weeks. Council President Paine answered it has been on the extended agenda for a week
a half. Councilmember K. Johnson asked when it will return to the agenda for public comment. Council
President Paine answered July 20t1i.
Councilmember Distelhorst expressed support for moving ahead with the presentation. When the Council
has had presentations in past, there has always been an opportunity to ask questions and have discussion.
Councilmember Buckshnis clarified just because an item was unfinished business did not mean the Council
would vote on it. She wanted to vet it because Councilmembers have received numerous emails about the
project. The public is very invested in this project and want to hear the Council vet it.

Funding Options for Consideration
1. Revised park design/amenities
o Project already significant value engineered
o Design meets all grant requirements — changing the design would require returning to grant
agencies to request modifications and possibly result in loss of grants
o Could result in reduction of cost, but could jeopardize grant awards by elimination of
elements
o Project would be delayed for several years resulting in significant costs related to redesign,
permitting and staff time
2. Phase construction — pay as you go
o Reduce the need to borrow funds, but significantly delay the project
o Would require reapplication or modification from granting agencies
o Phasing would significantly restrict use of the park during entire duration of construction
project
o More expensive due to costs associated with redesign and revised permitting

Council President Paine expressed appreciation for the time staff has been spent on this. She supported the
development of Civic Field, but because the costs are so high, the only alternate she supported was the track
surface because it would get the most uniform use. She asked how long the track surface was expected to
last. Ms. Feser answered she did not have that information readily available but envisioned it would be
considerable. The product is widely used on playgrounds, spray pads, water features, etc. The technology
was developed over multiple years and it has a lot of durability.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas asked how this project would affect the purchase of other properties. She
relayed it has been a priority of the current Mayor to develop a park in the east side of Edmonds. She asked
how many parks there were in the City. Ms. Feser answered it depends on how they are classified, there
were about 15-20, closer to 40 if the shared parks and pocket parks were included. For the sake of
discussion, Councilmember Fraley-Monillas estimated there were 25 parks, but only one Edmonds park
was located near the Highway 99 corridor, yet one-third of Edmonds' citizens live on the corridor.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas asked how this project would affect the ability to purchase and develop
new parks that would benefit people in that area. Ms. Feser responded looking at the impact of this project
system -wide, the ability to do other projects including land acquisition and development, and the allocations
earmarked for this project, the grants may not be transferable especially the RCO grants. Hazel Miller and
Verdant may be willing to transfer some of the funds. The bonds are flexible enough to be used in the park
system and are not necessarily earmarked for this project alone so they could be used for acquisition and
development of other parks. There were allocations made to the acquisition program such as $200,000/year,
a relatively small amount for land acquisition. She summarized this project would have a significant impact
to the system as far as expansion or renovation.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas observed the $15M+ allocated for this park would hurt the purchase and
development of a park along the corridor. Ms. Feser agreed it would delay it, depending on grants. The cm
PROS Plan is helping identify community priorities which will assist with developing the CIP, but that c
process will not occur until late this year or early next year. Councilmember Fraley-Monillas suggested a W
survey for the PROS Plan might include a question whether residents on the corridor wanted a park in theirCD
c
area or downtown. Ms. Feser said that is being explored with the PROS Plan community survey that is out E
now and during the process, there are ways to refine the information from the preliminary survey.
Councilmember Distelhorst thanked Ms. Feser for the presentation and discussions as well as Deputy a
Director Burley who answered emailed questions while was on vacation. This is a keystone project for
Edmonds. It went through an extensive public engagement as well as development of a master pan and in
his opinion, the project needs to be completed. He viewed it as a "yes and" not an "either/or" because funds
are being identified for other areas of the City in the future and the PROS Plan will assist in identifying
future values and priorities the same way as the public engagement and master plan guided the Civic Field
project. He expressed support for approving the three contracts when appropriate and beginning to evaluate
the four alternatives and funding options. He suggested having the options laid out in a buffet format so
they can be evaluated and possibly putting together 2-3 smaller options rather than one allocation from a
single fund or reserve. He supported having the Finance Committee evaluate those options and bring
something back for Council review. He agreed the track surface would be a high priority, recalling that was
supported during the public engagement. The track surface is much safer for participants of all ages as
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
July 6, 2021

7.3.a
asphalt is not a friendly surface to fall on. He supported applying funding alternatives to the park alternatives
to see what makes sense.
Councilmember Buckshnis echoed Councilmember Distelhorst, this does not need to be an either/or but
should be a yes and. She pointed out many people may not understand the time value of money, if the City
bonds, rates are very low, and eventually inflation will spike. Bonding is very attractive but the rates are
increasing so it is important to look at alternatives and think outside the box. During the initial discussions
regarding the $3.7M bond, she expressed her preference for a $5M bond as she believed Civic Field would
be more expensive due to the peat and underground water. Civic Field is Edmonds' central park. There can
be an uptown park like Councilmember Fraley-Monillas mentioned, but the fact is people are drawn to the
water and this is the central park. If the park design is changed and the master plan reopened, there will be
substantial delays. A lot of citizens support the development of Civic Field. Bond financing would be
advantageous due to the inflated property base and increased house sales. Bonding is investing for future
people who will use the park. Rather than pay for it now, bonding will allow funds for a park up north or
more parking up north. She expressed support for the track surface and the water feature, but she was unsure
about the climbing wall because people can always go to REI and she has never seen anyone on the REI
climbing wall. She supported moving forward and having the Finance Committee discuss the numbers. She
summarized the City needs to complete its central park.
Councilmember L. Johnson commented this was a difficult topic for her as her family participated in the
open houses and outreach and were all very excited about the park; her son was excited about the skatepark
and the water park. However, like many who support this park, it is right down the road from them and as
a Councilmember she wondered if there is broad support across the community for this park or is it mostly
in the downtown core. She wished the PROS Plan would be complete before moving forward as it would
help answer those questions. There are also tradeoffs, potential opportunities the City may miss out on by
choosing to move forward with this project. She summarized future opportunities combined with not having
the PROS Plan update completed to provide a holistic view on the community's priorities make this a
difficult decision.
Councilmember Olson commented a lot of the concerns brought up by Councilmembers Fraley-Monillas Q
and L. Johnson are things all Councilmembers have had on their minds. With regard to the alternatives,
being able to cut some of the nice -to -haves and have those funds, financing or the REET investment to use ccmo
in other ways is definitely the way to go. It would be great to have the alternatives; she put out some feelers c
about private philanthropy to fund some of the alternatives such as REI sponsoring the scramble wall. She w
suggested anyone with contacts approach REI about providing an amenity for Edmonds, but she not
personally willing to invest in those extras at the park at this point. That said, she fully supports and
understands how long it takes move something through the process and frankly Councilmembers Buckshnis
and Fraley-Monillas were on the Council when Civic Field was approved. There was a huge investment of
resources gathering public input at three different sessions. For example, getting one of the bids out cost a
$40,000; every time the project is delayed, stopped, or reconsidered, there is an additional huge expense. A
modification to make the project a little less expensive results more expense due to redesign and bid
processes and in the end results in less good stuff. She encouraged the Council to support the base project.
She agreed if the Council chose one of amenities, she liked the rubberized track due to its broad use and
broad benefit to so many ages.
Councilmember K. Johnson said she was on the Council when the City was fortunate enough to purchase
this property from the Edmonds School District. She was also the Council representative on the master plan
for the project and participated in two previous PROS Plans. From a planning perspective this was identified
as a significant project for the City through the PROS Plan, CIP and the CFP. She read comments from
citizens that embody what this was about: "To date the Civic Park project represents an exemplary and
outstanding community wide effort that has been supported throughout the community. The Edmonds

7.3.a
P6tanque Club and its 72 members offer enthusiastic support for the Edmonds Civic project." Another
citizen wrote, "A large segment of the public is behind you as you move forward." Several citizens asked
the Council to move forward without the additional elements; one wrote, "There are diminishing returns
for additional elements. In other words, we need to develop the park more than we need a water element or
a climbing wall. We already have a very fine spray area at City Park and a climbing wall at the Frances
Anderson Center."
Councilmember K. Johnson referred to a public television program about city parks and the vision for those
parks. Civic Field has been used by the City for 75 years as part of the Edmonds senior and junior high. It
is a very flat area, part of ancient Pleistocene era waterbed which is the reason for the high water table. This
is a wonderful opportunity and she hoped to move forward with the contracts as soon as possible as the
additional elements will not jeopardize the funding.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas recalled past votes on this project were not unanimous, one
Councilmember voted against it and wanted to do pay as you go. In her opinion, the City's central park was
City Park not Civic Park. She questioned the suggestion to visit REI's climbing wall which is located in
Seattle. The 22% of the Edmonds population who are people of color predominately live in east Edmonds.
Approving another park downtown is creating social equity and equality issues in Edmonds. She approved
of this park in the past when it was $4-5M, not $15M. If only one of the City's parks is located between the
corridor and Woodway, that is very unequitable. She reiterated City Park is Edmonds' central park; it cost
millions and includes a water feature and specialized playgrounds.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas agreed City Park was a great park that she loved taking her son to, but it
was three miles from her home. If she wanted to take children to a park, she was more likely go to Mountlake
Terrace or Shoreline instead of driving into downtown Edmonds to visit a park that her tax dollars paid for.
She encouraged the Council to think about the equality and equity of having only one Edmonds -owned
park with two parking spaces from almost Woodway to east Edmonds. She acknowledged there is a county
park in the area, but it is owned by Snohomish County and the City does not control it. She said living in a
neighborhood that is not in the downtown core is a totally different environment and the residents deserve
to have money spent there.
Councilmember Buckshnis commented there are about 48 parks in Edmonds according to the City'scm
W
website. She agreed it is an equity issue and Highway 99 has been the money making machine corridor. c
She did not agree that City Park is Edmonds' central park and said Civic Field is the central park. She w
recalled Councilmember K. Johnson supported pay as you go and she still does. It does not matter how
Councilmembers voted in the past, the City is deep into this project and a great deal of time has been m
E
invested including a huge public process that included people outside the bowl. She suggested if the Council
approved the base bid and financed the project via bonds, there is still plenty of money to purchase property
in the Highway 99 area. She commented Esperance did a great job with their park. She supported moving a
forward with the Civic Field project.
Councilmember Olson said talking about other potential projects muddies the waters. As Councilmember
Buckshnis said, the City is so deep into this project and so much time, effort and money has been invested
to get to this point and it will only get more expensive. She supported proceeding with the base project and
continuing with the planning and thought process for other park opportunities and using the money that is
not spent on the alternatives to make that happen.
Councilmember Olson said it was not that she did not support doing parks in other parts of the City because
she absolutely did, but residents do not utilize and enjoy parks thinking about the City boundaries. Edmonds
residents enjoy a lot of parks that are not Edmonds parks including Esperance Park in the unincorporated
area of Edmonds, parks on the City's boundaries such as Lynnwood's Gold Park, and county parks such as

the park on Olympic View Drive or Meadowdale Beach Park. She summarized Civic Field is a great project
that is very far along and she did not find it prudent for the Council to turn its back on the project, but could
instead make cuts if funding was not available. She clarified she was not telling people to go to the climbing
wall in Seattle, her suggestion was REI may be interested in sponsoring a climbing wall at Civic Field rather
than the City funding it.
Councilmember L. Johnson said while listening to the conversation, she was struck by the support for
moving forward with this project, but the acknowledgement by Councilmembers that the Highway 99 area
and other parts of the City do not have same amenities. She referred to comments that Highway 99 is a
money maker for the City and that the Civic Field project needs to continue because of how deep the City
is into the project. If Highway 99 is a money maker for the City, but does not have parks, she questioned
why Civic Field has been the main focus. She referred to comments that there is plenty of money to purchase
property on Highway 99, commenting she has not seen that information and would like to have those
discussions. The PROS Plan identifies what the community as a whole wants and the available funding.
That was information she did not have; all she had was a lot of passionate people who, like her, have
supported this project. She did not have the information that the City could acquire property along Highway
99 to address the equity component that has been missing, especially if Highway 99 is the City's money
maker. The City has been deep into projects in the past and have done a U-turn or paused. She summarized
she was struggling because this was not matching up for her.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas commented there are 48 parks in Edmonds and there is 1 pocket park with 4)
2 parking spaces on the Highway 99 corridor. She agreed surveys were done in the past, but they were not
done in different languages, only in English. She questioned how many surveys came from people in the —
Highway 99 for whom English was not their first language. With regard to being deep into projects, she 3
referred to the "bridge to nowhere" or the "emergency offramp to the ferry system" and the absolutely G
outrageous the amounts of money spent on that project before it was stopped. She referred to comments c
about a park on Olympic View Drive or Meadowdale Beach Park, pointing out those were still in downtown
cc
Edmonds. To the comment that residents could go to parks in Mountlake Terrace and Shoreline, she found c
it absolutely amazing that someone would say go to a park in another city because the City is not going to a
provide a park in the Highway 99 area. She recommended slowing down and taking a look at this, a
recognizing the costs could be more, just like they were for the connector or the "offramp onto the beach,"
cm
but the decision to stop that project was appropriate. She summarized with regard to equity and equality, W
"we don't have it up here as the money makers in Edmonds." c
w
Councilmember Olson clarified she has looked at this and has been giving it deep thought. The parallel to
the connector project is a false parallel in that there were things in the end that made people think that that E
project was a mistake. No one is thinking that developing Civic Park is a mistake, the intent is to identify a
budget that is realistic, realizing a lot of money has been raised by interested community members such as
the inclusive playground funded by the Rotary. This park is something the community has been behind and a
taking all or most of the alternatives off the table will allow the City to save money for other purposes that
the Council is committed to.
Ms. Feser summarized this is on the extended agenda for the July 13t' meeting. She will bring forward the
contracts with the alternative track surfacing for the Council to vote on and have the Finance Committee
work on a funding package.
Councilmember Buckshnis asked if a public hearing was needed, recognizing there may not be enough time
as there were only 20 days until the bids expired. Ms. Feser answered the bid is only valid for the next two
Council meetings. Councilmember Buckshnis anticipated the public would provide comment over the next
two weeks.

6. AUDIENCE COMMENTS
Mayor Nelson invited participants and described the procedures for audience comments.
Linda Ferkingstad, Edmonds, challenged the Council before they voted on any ordinance to ask
themselves whether it infringes on the constitutional rights of any citizen or their property rights and the
answer should determine their vote. Every ordinance should be written so it encompasses the freedoms and
rights of every citizens without infringing on another. This is the law and what America stands for. If the
Council's actions harm or deter the rights to one's property, freedom, right to earn income or pursuit of
happiness, Councilmembers are violating their office and the constitution. It was telling when City Attorney
Taraday couldn't answer an immediate yes to Councilmember K. Johnson's question whether the City has
the ability to control private property and trees; the tree ordinance required a yes. Woodway treasures its
trees so much that a two-way street was made into one-way because a tree had grown into it. In 1999
Woodway attempted to restrict the property rights of a developer because of trees; it was litigated and the
Growth Management Hearings Board determined the developer was able to build twice the number of a
homes they originally applied for, four per acre. Woodway purchased a portion of the land and designated
it for trails. Woodway formed their tree code within the law as follows: a developer can remove only 5%
of the trees from the property. The exemption is the footprint of the home with a 25 foot perimeter for
safety.
°
°
Ms. Ferkingstad said Woodway does not charge property owners for removing trees unless removed v
without permit. Woodway has an allowance for the number of trees that can be removed per year, including °
one exceptional or 30" DBA every five years. Edmonds' tree ordinance is illegal; it is a taking of property >
by regulation and fees. She suggested Edmonds learn from Woodway and achieve their goals legally. Her n
family's plans for three homes on 1.2 acres zoned residential comply with Edmonds' guidelines of 30% °
tree retention. She was thankful for the exemption from fees if they are able to retain 50% of the trees, but a
found this arbitrary because many would not qualify. It is illegal for Edmonds to charge anyone for the cm
worth of their trees even with the cap of $2/square foot of property which would be $100,000 in their case. c
When a neighbor's tree is taken without permission, state law requires they are entitled to three times the w
tree's worth. She asked whether Edmonds taxpayers would be responsible for three times their trees' worth
that the City is taking from them. People can save trees by their own actions, not by controlling others, by m
not buying furniture, wood siding, wood floors, paper towels, or toilet paper which all use trees. Trees are
a valuable and renewable resource.

10. NEW BUSINESS
1. JOB ORDER CONTRACTING - PROPOSAL AND AGREEMENT
N
Public Works Director Phil Williams explained staff has been working on Job Ordering Contracting (JOC) o
for some time, beginning last year with changes to the purchasing policy to prepare to add this procurement io
method to the existing methods. An RFP was developed and circulated and Gordian was eventually selected };
as the JOC administrator and a contract was negotiated.
E
Mr. Williams reviewed JOC, an additional Washington State procurement option:
What is Job Order Contracting? a
o RCW 39.10.420 to RCW 39.10.460:
o A job order contract is a fixed time period, indefinite quantity delivery system which provides
for the use of negotiated, individual work orders for public works projects
Procurement Options
o Design Bid — Build
o Design Build
o ESCO project delivery
o General contractor/Construction Manager at risk
o Small Works Roster
o Job Order Contracting
General Reasons to choose JOC
o When you expect to have multiple projects that range from $25,000 to $500,000 (maximum)
o When the total volume of work is less than $4 million per year per JOC contractor (up to 3)
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
July 6, 2021
Page I I
Packet Pg. 23
7.3.a
o When you have limited owner staff or skills availability for efficient implementation of other
procurement methods
o When there is need for earlier project delivery than other procurement methods can achieve
Unique aspects of JOC
o The owner can discontinue use of the JOC contract at any time
o A partnership with a consistent JOC Contractor leads to trust and a familiarity with the owner's
unique needs and procedures
o Frequent value engineering produces the best balance of quality, efficacy and cost
o Use of the Unit Price Book (Means Database) results in accurate projects costs
o Eliminates the "change order philosophy" since charges are based on current regional unit
prices
Some benefits of JOC for owners
o Reduced lead time — no need to plan or prepare bid documents and drawings for each work
order
o Eliminated bid time
o Expedited engineering, since JOC projects often require little architectural or engineering
services for construction of most projects
o Joint scoping and rescoping as needed
Increased opportunity for small and disadvantages business as JOC does the following:
o Furnishes bonding for most subcontractors
o Completes "red tape" requirements
o Uses a best value bid analysis for subcontractors and partners with subcontractors
o Recruits small and disadvantaged businesses as desired
o Coaches subcontractors in all aspects of quality work, safety and project management (as
needed)
o Pays subcontractors promptly, typically subcontractors payment is not tied to JOC.....
Councilmember Buckshnis said the Finance Committee recommended forwarding this to full Council. She o
observed the maximum was $500,000 per project but it can go up to $3M. Mr. Williams explained state a
law establishes a maximum amount for a JOC system for cities and counties; the current maximum for each a
individual project (job order) is $500,000 and there can be three JOCs under the JOC administrator. Each
of the three contractor could do up to $4M/year, but it is limited to $500,000 per project. Edmonds is not cm
planning anything close to those numbers, but there can be multiple JOCs and multiple projects in a year c
of various sizes, but they cannot exceed those limits.CD
w
c
Councilmember Buckshnis asked Mr. Williams to explain the RS Means Database that Gordian maintains. E
Mr. Williams explained Gordian has worked for years to add project data to the database such as the cost
of a square foot of drywall installed nationally, regionally and locally; costs for excavation, soil disposal, a
roofing, etc. which can be sorted to determine current prices. He described the process of developing a
price; the project sponsor describes the project to Gordian, provides drawings, descriptions, scope, etc.,
Gordian then develops a proposal and price working with the JOC. The City has the option of accepting,
negotiating, or rejecting the price, doing the project later or doing a different project. Councilmember
Buckshnis thanked staff for the complete packet.
Council President Paine asked what this would primarily be used for, commenting she understood JOC
from her previous employment. Mr. Williams said the intent was to start slow, small facilities projects such
as office build outs, partition walls, flooring, painting, small roofing projects, etc. to see how the City liked
it. He suspected the City would like it and would start doing larger projects. He commented the maximum
of $500,000 could allow utility and civil work, paving, etc. Council President Paine asked if Gordian had
access to JOCs with that technical expertise. Mr. Williams answered yes.

Councilmember Distelhorst said he was supportive of this when it came to Council previously and when it
was presented to committee. He appreciated the memo regarding Disadvantaged Businesses (DBE) and
Women and Minority Owned Businesses (WMBE) and asked how that applies, who develops the inclusion
targets, and whether it would be project -by -project or an annual target. Michael Celesta, Gordian,
answered they have setting up JOC programs for over 30 years and have several clients in Washington.
They have been able to incubate local WMBE contractors on a program level and a per project level. As
the owner, the City can dictate those goals or inclusion requirements. He is working with Seattle Public
Schools and that is a large part of implementing their JOC program. Councilmember Distelhorst observed
Gordian had a lot of local, relevant experience. Mr. Celesta agreed, explaining they can set up the program
with the City's inclusion requirements.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas asked if this will include prevailing wage. Mr. Williams answered yes,
the City must comply with local purchasing policies, provisions and financing requirements; there is no
change to that. Councilmember Fraley-Monillas asked if it will include women, POC, LGBTQ as far as
priority contracting. Mr. Williams answered it absolutely can, the City can include whatever it wants. He
cautioned there may be limits on that because it can affect outcomes. Having not done that before, he was
unable to state the pros and cons, but the City could definitely specify minority and women owned
businesses and can include other equity issues and modify it as necessary.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas said she was specifically interested in prevailing wage and equity issues.
She asked how much this would cost the City. Mr. Williams answered the contract the Council is being
asked to approve does not have an upfront cost. Gordian will be paid as projects are approved; Gordian
works with the JOC to develop a proposal and present it to the City. When the City accepts the proposal,
Gordian is paid a fee of 5% of the project cost. The City can also exercise the option of hiring Gordian to
do project management which is an additional 5.95%. Two levels of service can be provided on a project,
1) 5% for Gordian working with the JOC to develop a proposal and City staff manages the project, or 2)
10.95% for Gordian to do project administration and management and deliver the project.
Councilmember K. Johnson asked if the professional services agreement was time limited. Mr. Williams a
answered yes, there is a fixed term but the parties can enter into another agreement. Councilmember K. Q
Johnson asked the length of this agreement. Mr. Celesta recalled it was 3-4 years. Mr. Williams explained
cm
although the City intends to utilize the agreement, it does not have to. If at some point it doesn't work, the W
City can stop using it. The time period is not that key because it could be extended or stopped. c
w
Councilmember K. Johnson asked how many responses there were to the RFP and what process was used
to select Gordian. Mr. Williams answered the RFP was circulated in accordance with the purchasing policy E
and the City received only one submittal. He has researched other JOC administrators and has not found
others. Councilmember K. Johnson referred to the long list of deferred maintenance projects and asked if
this could help get some of them done. Mr. Williams answered absolutely, that is a perfect example of a
projects that could be done. The key is funding; if funding is available, a lot of work can be done in a hurry
via JOC.
Councilmember K. Johnson found JOC very positive and asked if additional engineering staff would need
to be hired. Mr. Williams did not anticipate needing to hire anyone; staff will work with Gordian for the
next 2-3 months to get the system up and running and then identify some projects to get started with.
Councilmember K. Johnson said she supported a process that gave a bonus 10% points to WMBE. She
recalled that method was used when she worked in King County; things would be rated and 10% added for
businesses that fell into that category. Mr. Williams answered that was not how this system worked. If the
Council approves the contract, as the program is set up, staff will work with Gordian to select JOC. The
JOCs are limited to 10% of the project expenditures, the rest has to be subcontracted. The City will set the

criteria for selecting JOC, but will not be directly involved in the actual selection. The City can work with
Gordian to ensure that some of the City's favorite and local contractors on the list. That happens behind the
scenes and the City is presented with a cost proposal.
Councilmember K. Johnson expressed interest in setting that policy. Mr. Celesta said they have worked
with King County and other clients in Washington. The way JOC works, while not the primary benefit but
a secondary tertiary benefit, is they are able to meet inclusionary requirements which recycle dollars back
into the community to DBE and WMBE businesses. If the City is already tracking that, they would
appreciate those metrics, but the City can set the bar and they will set it up on a program level to ensure
projects are meeting those inclusion requirements on a per project level. This program can help the City
incubate those contractors within the local community and achieve those goals.
Mr. Williams said the size of the project will dictate the number of opportunities, the bigger the project is
and the broader scope is, the more options there will be. Mr. Celesta said they do this across the nation.
Washington is unique because the RCW explicitly states how JOC is done; 10% by prime and 90% by
subcontracts. That bodes well for this type of scenario because the JOC will ensure the subcontractors meet
the inclusion goals.
Mr. Williams thanked Facilities Maintenance Manager Thom Sullivan who has been working with Gordian
for over a year on this program.

2. UPDATE TO CITY COMPENSATION POLICY
HR Director Jessica Neill Hoyson recalled two weeks ago she presented how comparator cities are selected.
She reviewed: a
• Background cm
W
o City is engaging a compensation consultant in 2021 to review the majority of City positions
o Policy was last updated in 2012 w
o Council has changed since then and this policy should reflect the wishes of current Council
o Current policy does not reflect PERC supported practices in selection of comparators
o Current policy does not reflect a focus on pay equity
o Current policy language needs editing for ease of understanding
• Key Changes Q
o Clear philosophy statement that addresses pay equity
o Adds definition of terms used in the policy
o Establishes compensation goals
o Establishes best practice, Public Employment Relations Commission supported, methodology
for selection of comparators
• Compensation Philosophy
o A compensation philosophy answers the "why" behind employee pay. In a formal, written
statement, a compensation philosophy should identify the organization's pay programs and
reward strategies and create a framework for consistency. This basis will serve as the guiding
principles that drive decision making regarding compensation.
• Why is Compensation Philosophy Necessary?
o Compensation philosophies are used to attract, retain, and motivate employees. There are
several reasons why our organization should have a clear, updated compensation philosophy.
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
July 6, 2021
Page 14
Packet Pg. 26
7.3.a
o Demonstrate commitment
■ By taking the time to ensure fair compensation strategies, the City can help employees feel
appreciated. According to a survey by the American Psychological Association, 93% of
employees said they are motivated to do their best work when they feel valued. Having a
clear updated compensation philosophy will show City employees that we are invested in
them.
o Retain employees
■ The way the City approaches compensation can have a direct impact on employee
satisfaction. In fact, how employees feel about our pay process can be even more important
than how much they're paid. According to a PayScale survey, an employee's perception of
payroll processes is "5.4 times more impactful on how satisfied they are than how they're
paid relative to market." That suggests that if we are fair and transparent about
compensation, employee satisfaction and retention rates could increase.
o Attract talent
■ Having a compensation policy that is clear and reflective of best practices can also impact
the employees we attract. Publishing or sharing our compensation philosophy with job
candidates should attract more talent and help find the right people whose needs and values
align with our philosophy. Candidates appreciate organizations that are transparent about
pay, and updating the compensation policy should directly impact the number and quality
of applicants we receive.
o Ensure equal pay
■ While there are allowable pay differences based on factors not prohibited by law, our
compensation philosophy should show equal pay for equal work and apply that in practice. —
This will not only show current employees but also prospective employees that we are an
organization that values equity. G
5.2 COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY (What we are trying to achieve) c
o The City's compensation program should be designed to attract and retain dedicated,
hardworking, diverse, and talented employees who effectively support the mission of the City. c
Therefore, the City's compensation philosophy shall be competitive in the relative market a
considering all appropriate factors. Those factors include, but are not limited to, compensation a
provided by comparable cities, pay equity and internal equity, and fiscal resources available to
the City. The total compensation program is made up of both pay and benefits. cm
o The guiding principles set forth in this policy are expressed as general goals, with a full c
understanding that wages and benefits are mandatory subjects of bargaining for represented w
employees. This policy applies to non -represented City employees. It may also serve as a c
guideline for the City Council in its decision making with regard to labor negotiations. E
Compensation adjustment for non -represented employees are subject to City Council approval;
compensation adjustments for represented employees are subject to collective bargaining, and
ratification by the union(s) and City Council. a
5.4 COMPENSATION GOALS
o The City's compensation philosophy is to be competitive in the relevant labor market
considering all appropriate factors. To carry out that philosophy, the City's compensation goals
are:
■ To attract and retain, dedicated, hardworking, diverse, talented employees who are well
qualified to perform their duties in an ever evolving municipal government environment;
■ To pay employees fairly and to ensure pay equity and internal equity;
■ To be externally competitive by providing compensation commensurate with the labor
market;
■ To be fiscally responsible and legally defensible.
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
July 6, 2021

Packet Pg. 27
7.3.a
o The Compensation Policy then outlines how we will achieve our established goals. Key to
achieving our compensation goals is establishing the relevant labor market. This is done by the
selection of comparable cities.
Current Process for Comparator Selection and Why Change is Proposed
o The current process for the selection of comparator cities takes into account only population
and geographic location.
o Why is that an issue?
o A perfect world would have one uniform process for developing comparable employers for
compensation analysis.
o There is no such uniform approach!
o However, over time certain criteria have been used more than others.
o The most common situation for use of comparables in Washington is bargaining for law
enforcement and fire personnel. It is required by Washington state law that comparators are
used as one factor in bargaining.
o Why is that important and why does that impact the comparator selection process for other City
positions? ,.
o It is favorable for an employer to have consistency in selection of comparables throughout the
organization. This leads to compensation decisions that are defensible should they be
challenged by Unions to the PERC.
What is the PERC Supported Process for Comparator Selection
o You must first start from the statutory guidance to use "like employers of similar size on the
West coast of the United States." RCW 41.56.465(2)
o While this definition is far from clear cut, over the years arbitrators have developed certain
criteria to apply to this statutory definition
o The two most common criteria are population served and assessed valuation
U
o In order to satisfy the "similar size" component of the statutory definition you must begin with c
population, recognized by arbitrators as "the most commonly referenced criteria" City of
SeaTac, at 7-8 (Krebs, 2002) c
o In fact, "the vast majority of interest arbitrators in the Northwest over the last 20 years have
a
taken population as the first factor to be considered in determining comparables." City of Q
Mukilteo, at 4 (Lankford, 2002)
o Most arbitrators use a band -with of 50% up and down, with 100% as the usual upper limit cm
■ This means that for cities whose population is 100,000, possible comparables' population c
should be no smaller than 50,000 and no larger than 150,000 (using the 50% upper limit) w
or 200,000 (using the 100% upper limit)
o The 50% up-and-down methodology has been adopted by many arbitrators as an appropriate E
bandwidth to determine "similar size" See, e.g., City of Redmond, at 3 (Wilkinson, 2004); City
of Vancouver, at 3 (Beck, 1998)
o Arbitrators also routinely limit the upper limit to 100% greater than the employer Yakima a
County, (Gangle 2004)
o In order to satisfy the "like" employer requirement, the most common criteria used is assessed
valuation.
■ As stated by Arbitrator Wilkinson, "there are so many arbitration awards that have
considered only population and assessed valuation as a measure of size that no citation is
needed." City of Camas, at 13 (Wilkinson, 2003)
o The same bandwidth process used for establishing the population range is then used to establish
the assessed valuation range.
o It should be noted that while assessed valuation does not reflect the retail sales capacity of a
jurisdiction, and in turn the sales tax derived from such sales, assessed valuation is still the
most common criteria for determining "like" employers
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes
July 6, 2021
Page 16
Packet Pg. 28
7.3.a
o Additionally, using the calculation of assessed valuation per capita has been used as an
acceptable factor to determine "like" employers in cases where the comparable list needed to
be pared down to a manageable number.
o Lastly, geographic proximity is another component of the "like" employer requirement.
■ "It is quite clear that Washington interest arbitrators have commonly preferred
geographically proximate comparators when such are available." City of Longview, at 4
(Lankford, 2008)
o Geographic proximity does not take the place of population and assessed valuation. For
example, the fact that Medina shares a border with Bellevue does not make Bellevue a Medina
comparable, given the significant disparity in size.
Who are Edmonds comparables?
o Using the current methodology in policy which is 10,000 above and below the population of
Edmonds and located in the Counties of Snohomish, King, Pierce, and Thurston you get the
following comparables:

Leading, Meeting, or Lagging the Market
o Once you have established your market you must then determine if you will take a leading,
meeting, or lagging compensation position.
o Edmonds has established a 50th percentile or median of comparators and has therefor
established a compensation position of meeting the market.
o There is no change proposed to the overall philosophy on market position but the updated
policy does recognize that there may be certain situations which require a different market
approach.

■ Recruiting the desired level of talent in certain jobs is a sustained problem and results in
negative impacts to the City and the citizens we serve;
■ Retention problems including succession and turnover;
■ City priorities;
■ Internal anomalies in alignment, disparities, or inconsistencies;
■ Significant changes in the economy or marketplace;
■ Limitations on available financial resources
Councilmember Distelhorst expressed appreciation for the review of the overall philosophy and the
direction the policy is headed. He recalled the policy had not been updated since 2012 and the City was
trying to catch up and align with best practices. He asked about the industry best practice for how often this
type of policy should be evaluated. Ms. Neill Hoyson answered it depends on how long it has been since
the last update. She suggested the compensation policy should be evaluated every five years. She pointed
out all compensation decisions come to the Council. This policy provides the broader, overarching policy;
individual reviews, such as non -rep compensation, come to Council and at that time the Council can address
changing the market position for example or considering the City's finances.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas pointed out the Edmonds comparables include two cities from Pierce
County and none from Thurston within the population range. Ms. Neill Hoyson answered the list starts with
population; there is a very long list of cities within the population policy. The list is then further narrowed
by the assessed valuation bandwidth. Cities that are within the 50% up-and-down bandwidth on population
may fall out because they are outside the assessed valuation bandwidth.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas referred to the list of Edmonds comparables, commenting they were
primarily King County cities and two from Pierce County. Considering that a starter house in King County
is $lM, she was concerned that Edmonds comparables were far down the list compared to Pierce and
Thurston counties. Ms. Neill Hoyson said all the comparators that meet the PERC established requirements
would be used.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas asked why there were none from Thurston County. Ms. Neill Hoyson a
pointed out there are two from Thurston County, Olympia and Lacey. She clarified there are two
cm
comparable lists, the first list is cities that meet the current policy, cities 10,000 above and below Edmonds' W
population. There are none in Thurston County that meet that requirement. The second list applies the PERC c
supported methodology for choosing comparators which starts with population 50% up-and-down and w
further narrows the list using assessed valuation 50% up-and-down . She included per capita as she found
it a better indicator for the amount that can be expended per citizen.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas asked if county or state employees with similar jobs were included. Ms.
Neill Hoyson answered county and states, due to their different revenues sources, are not necessarily a
comparators for the City. The policy does have flexibility if at some point there is a job that does not match
well and only counties have that job and then adjust for the county's revenue sources. Councilmember
Fraley-Monillas said the state pays much lower than cities followed by the county. Ms. Neill Hoyson said
the state and county are not considered like -employers to cities according to PERC.
Council President Paine commented she liked having the assessed valuation information, noting most of
Edmonds' revenue comes from property taxes and it makes sense to compare to like communities. If the
intent is to target the 50'h percentile, she asked if there would be additional flexibility in terms of recruitment
and retention with a range between the 50t1i and 60' percentile. She asked the difference between the 60'n
and 50t1i percentile. Ms. Neill Hoyson answered moving to 60'1i percentile would marginally lead the market.
If the goals was to lead the market, it would need to be the 70' percentile. The 60' percentile would be a
slightly leading approach, but not a significant monetary impact to employees. There may be times when
Edmonds City Council Draft Minutes

7.3.a
she recommends a leading approach in certain jobs or categories for reasons of recruitment, succession or
retention. While some may think a meet -the -market approach is average or mediocre, a majority of
organizations take that approach. Council President Paine appreciated the flexibility in the compensation
policy to provide bonuses when necessary.
Councilmember K. Johnson appreciated Ms. Neill Hoyson showing the current comparators and the
proposed PERC approach to population and assessed valuation. She asked if that needed to be included in
the compensation policy because the method is not definitive. She was unsure how the comparator graph
fit into Chapter 5. Ms. Neill Hoyson answered "how we choose comparators" is included in the updated
compensation policy in the market definition. What is not included is establishing the 50% up-and-down
bandwidth. She did not recommend including the list of comparators in the policy because population and
assessed valuations change and the cities on the list may change. If Council wanted to lock in the 50% up-
and-down bandwidth as policy, that can be add to the market definition section. Councilmember K. Johnson
agreed with that suggestion.
Councilmember L. Johnson appreciated the updated policy and the philosophy behind it, noting it was likely
overdue and she appreciated moving forward with it. She recalled Ms. Neill Hoyson mentioning the mission
of the City and asked if she was referencing a specific mission statement or the general mission of cities.
Ms. Neill Hoyson said she meant the general mission, particularly as it related to equity work the City is
doing, a broader statement of the mission and as the City moves forward, she envisioned more documents
supporting that mission like policies, equity roadmap, etc.
Councilmember Olson said she has been ruminating on this and gets stuck on the fact that the City's —
assessed valuation does not represent the workforce. From a percentage standpoint, the highest valued
properties are people who have saved their entire live and were finally able to purchase their dream house. G
She wondered if it was fair and did the City have to pay more because some people were wealthier or had v
higher valued properties than the general area when the workforce comes from the general area. The big 00
picture of that component is being implemented without an acknowledgement of the fact that it will put c
Edmonds in a higher bracket than the workforce it is competing with in the general area. The talent a
Edmonds is looking for is not necessarily in the comparator cities, although she noted Lynwood was one a
of Edmonds' comparator cities.
N
W
As the policy used only population in the past, Councilmember Olson pointed out this change will have a c
significant impact on the budget. That was fine to the extent it was something the City needed to do to retain w
and attract talent, but if there was a way to do an assessed valuation based on south Snohomish County
versus Edmonds alone, it would still reflect the property values in Edmonds. If that was PERC defensible,
E
she was interested in knowing how that would impact the comparator cities. Ms. Neill Hoyson answered
assessed valuation is PERC's way of saying these are the resources the city has to pay for the work that
needs to be done. It is not the cost of housing or the cost of living in a city, it is purely the revenue the city a
receives that can be used to pay employees to do the work. That is how PERC determines like and similar
employees. There is no way to use geography as the primary way of determining comparators, that does
not work with the way PERC has established its processes.
Councilmember Olson said that was something to keep in mind when determining whether the City wants
to meet market, knowing that that extra is paid on the front. When someone is competing for a job around
Edmonds, if they are meeting the market also, it might pay less than Edmonds pays. Ms. Neill Hoyson
answered Council could choose to remove certain geographic areas such as not considering cities in King
County because they pay more. King County is in very close proximity to Edmonds so it is a competitor
for labor.

Councilmember Buckshnis said she has had the same thoughts as Councilmember Olson. She
complimented Ms. Neill Hoyson on the well written compensation policy. She asked why "employee" was
changed to "non -represented employees" in the policy and asked if there were any non -represented
employees that were not covered by unions. Ms. Neill Hoyson answered she found a lack of clarity in the
way the policy was written. She wanted to be clear that the policy was for non -represented employees and
represented employees are covered in bargaining.
Councilmember Buckshnis recalled a consultant wrote this policy in 2012 and that Lacey was one of
Edmonds' comparables with a 50% up-and-down bandwidth. She asked if this list was used in the past. Ms.
Neill Hoyson advised the list of comparators based on current policy was compiled based on her review of
current populations. It is possible Lacey may have been on a previous list because cities move on and off
the list as populations change. Councilmember Buckshnis recalled the Council having lengthy discussions
about comparator cities.
With regard to economics, Councilmember Buckshnis said she agreed with Councilmember Olson that
Edmonds' workforce did not match the assessed valuation and the assessed valuation per capita. She agreed
the majority of the City's revenue came from property taxes which is why the City did well during the
pandemic because most property owners paid their property taxes. She could see why the PERC
methodology would be used, but said Edmonds has a unique business center that includes Highway 99 and
the car dealerships. Ms. Neill Hoyson said the intent was to shift the policy to best practices for choosing
comparators which has been clearly established by arbitrators. There is not a lot of wiggle room other than
changing the market position or removing certain counties if the Council feels their compensation is higher
than Edmonds wants to establish. The way the policy is written allows the Council to consider things at the
time the compensation work is done. For example, the Council can consider the City's financial position
and determine the City cannot afford to do a "meet the market" approach and decide to use a "lag the
market" approach. The policy allows the Council, who are the final decision makers regarding
compensation, to look at what is happening at the time the compensation work is done.
Council President Paine asked if any testing had been done of what happens with the compensation policy, a
whether it would shift higher or lower and whether any positions would be lower than they are currently Q
paid. Ms. Neill Hoyson answered that testing has not been done to avoid writing a policy to drive a specific
cm
outcome. The goal is to write a policy regarding how the City approaches compensation. Typically if the W
comp work finds positions are in a higher band than they should be, that position is redlined or frozen and c
does not receive any COLA until their position band catches up to where it should be. That is the approach W
used by most public agencies; she has never seen someone's pay reduced.

E
Councilmember L. Johnson she supported retaining the King County comparisons. Many Edmonds teens
and young adults chose to work in King County instead of Snohomish County due to the difference in pay.
Using Snohomish County and leaving out King County is not realistic based on the City's location on the a
county line. That comparison is not apples to apples but it is a line, people will go where they are paid more.
Councilmember Olson referred to the comment that assessed value is an indicator of the resources a city
has to pay its employees, commenting paying more for the same job that is done in a neighboring town
means that money is not available for other priorities. When looking at the budget, this is a big picture
consideration and she hoped Councilmembers will not close their mind to the idea of removing King
County. There are a lot of reasons people may prefer to work in Edmonds versus King County if the
compensation is close. She clarified her comment was not a challenge to Councilmember L. Johnson, but
a comment she intended to make earlier, her contrary lens on the same subject.
COUNCILMEMBER K. JOHNSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER BUCKSHNIS,

Councilmember Olson referred to an issue with numbering on page 364 and suggested the Council wait to
approve this next week when that could be incorporated. Ms. Neill Hoyson answered that was an easy fix.
Councilmember Olson referred to another correction on page 359, changing "may" to make" which was
not changed in the policy in the packet. Ms. Neill Hoyson assured her copy had been updated.
Councilmember Olson asked if the Council was voting on the policy in the packet versus Ms. Neill
Hoyson's updated version that the public hasn't seen. Ms. Neill Hoyson asked Mr. Taraday if the motion
should say that any numbering and spelling errors are corrected. Mr. Taraday said spelling corrections and
numbering are considered scrivener's errors that do not require authorization to be corrected. If anything
substantial needs to be changed, the Council should provide clear direction to the administration so the
change is approved by motion.
Councilmember Olson said the counties to be included is not specified in the policy. Ms. Neill Hoyson
answered the counties are specified 5.5, Market Definition. Councilmember Olson preferred
Councilmembers have an opportunity to think about that. Ms. Neill Hoyson advised the counties included
in the policy were not changed other than to remove Kitsap County which the Council voted to remove in
2014 but the policy was never updated.
COUNCILMEMBER K. JOHNSON MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER OLSON, TO
AMEND TO ADD IN 5.5 MARKET DEFINITION AFTER THE FIRST PARAGRAPH, "USING
THE PERC SUPPORTED METHODOLOGY OF POPULATION, ASSESSED VALUATION AND
ASSESSED VALUATION PER CAPITA WITH A 50% UP-AND-DOWN BAND WIDTH AND
ESTABLISHING THE GEOGRAPHIC LABOR MARKET."
Councilmember K. Johnson explained this would specify in the market definition exactly what is being
considered. She acknowledged there has been discussion about eliminating certain cities but the
methodology should be included under Market Definition. She asked Ms. Neill Hoyson to define PERC.
Ms. Neill Hoyson said it is Public Employment Relations Commission.
Councilmember K. Johnson restated her motion:

something that affects how staff is compensated in the future.
Councilmember Distelhorst recalled the PERC methodology supports a 50% up-and-down bandwidth and a
asked if including such a detailed definition in the policy created any limitations. Ms. Neill Hoyson
answered she did not think so, anticipating it would be a rare occurrence that the City would use 100% up-
and-down unless it was pushed by bargaining. Councilmember Distelhorst observed a large portion of the
amendment is already contained in the first section of 5.5 and he suggested adding a parenthetical of 50%
up-and-down.
Councilmember Buckshnis concurred with Councilmember Fraley-Monillas and asked if this was time
sensitive. If it did not go through committee, committees will be held next week. She expressed interest in
seeing a clean version with all the changes and wanted time to think about whether to include King County.
Ms. Neill Hoyson answered it is time sensitive, she was trying to get the compensation contractor's work
complete. There was a three week delay because she was unable to present it a previous meeting, then she
had a conflict with the next meeting and there was no meeting on the 5t' Tuesday. She said of course the

Council should take the time needed to contemplate and be comfortable with the policy. The consultant is
working on other things that are not related to the comparators. There is time sensitivity to get this
completed in a timely manner so it can be addressed in the budget. This went to committee last month.
Councilmember Buckshnis observed the consultant had already been hired. Ms. Neill Hoyson said they are
waiting patiently; many cities are doing compensation work now in the wake of COVID. It is not only
staff s timeline to get this done before the end of the year but also ensuring the consultant is kept under
contract and does not take other clients while waiting for the City.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas commented there is no report from the consultant. Ms. Neill Hoyson
answered the work has not started so there wouldn't be a report at this point. The Council will get a report
at the end of the project which she anticipated would be sometime in October. Councilmember Fraley-
Monillas said a consultant was hired but the committee did not review the report because that work hasn't
started. Ms. Neill Hoyson answered the proposed policy changes went to committee. Councilmember
Fraley-Monillas reiterated she would like to have time to review the changes to the compensation policy.
Council President Paine announced Councilmember K. Johnson is having technology issues, but is
available by phone. Mr. Falk advised he can allow someone participating by phone to speak but not appear
on video.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas requested the motion be restated. Councilmember K. Johnson suggested
Ms. Neill Hoyson provide language Ms. Neill Hoyson provided the following:
REVISE SECTION 5.5 TO READ, "THE COMPARABLE LABOR MARKET WILL BE DEFINED
AS CITIES IN WASHINGTON STATE BASED ON POPULATION, ASSESSED VALUATION AND
ASSESSED VALUATION PER CAPITAL USING A 50% UP-AND-DOWN BANDWIDTH."

Councilmember Olson said there are a lot of reasons people prefer to work in Edmonds rather than King
County and paying the premium by having King County in the comparator list will elevate all the pay levels a
to a level she did not think the City needed to pay as well as take money away from other services the City
can offer to citizens. She anticipated the impact of including King County would be significant.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas did not disagree with Councilmember Olson, commenting King County's
minimum wage was nearly $3/hour different. She did not object to having comparator cities that were above
Edmonds, but having the most expensive comparator in the State of Washington was not necessarily a fair
comparison with Edmonds wages. She supported the motion.
Council President Paine pointed out Burien and SeaTac are cities in King County and their assessed
valuation is not at the top. In balance, she did not think including King County cities was moving the needle
too much.

COUNCIL PRESIDENT PAINE MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER L. JOHNSON, TO
EXTEND FOR 13 MINUTES TO 10:10 P.M. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Councilmember Distelhorst echoed Council President Paine's comments, the comparator cities in King
County are not Seattle or Bellevue, they are SeaTac, Shoreline which is literally across the street from
Edmonds, and Burien. The people who have applied for directorships in Edmonds in the last 18 months
were predominately not from Snohomish County. If the City wants to attract regional talent and have the
best individuals in positions to serve the City and the residents, the wages absolutely need to be competitive.
He was not saying the City would be ahead of the market, but as Ms. Neill Hoyson stated, it was meeting
the market, staying in line with cities that Edmonds is competing against to attract talent. King County is
already in the existing policy and removing it would be a serious change. He will vote against motion as he
preferred to keep King County in the criteria for identifying comparable cities, not cities outside based on
their population or assessed valuation.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas commented Seattle is exactly outside the City's compensation limit. A
starter home in Seattle is over $1M, much more than in Edmonds. Seattle cannot keep first responders and
has to pay outrageous prices.
Councilmember K. Johnson raised a point of order, that the Council was not looking at Seattle. Mayor
Nelson ruled point not taken and allowed Councilmember Fraley-Monillas to continue.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas urged the Council to be careful when comparing to King County because
Edmonds is different than King County. She encouraged the Council to move away from King County
comparator cities and move toward Snohomish and Skagit Counties which is the area we live in.
COUNCILMEMBER L. JOHNSON CALLED THE QUESTION. VOTE TO CALL THE

MONILLAS VOTING YES.
Councilmember K. Johnson said the only compactor cities in King County are Issaquah, part of Bothell, a
SeaTac, Shoreline and Burien. None of these are in the Seattle job market and eliminating King County
eliminates 5 of the 11 comparators. Looking at population, assessed valuation and assessed valuation per N
capita, they are comparable. Only Issaquah has a higher assessed valuation per capita; the portion of Bothell Co
is very similar to Edmonds as are SeaTac and Shoreline. She preferred to keep the King County cities that c

11. COUNCIL COMMENTS
Councilmember L. Johnson reported earlier today she learned of the passing Rev. Dr. Jean Kim last
Saturday. With her passing, a powerhouse advocate and compassionate voice for those experiencing
homelessness and housing instability was lost. Jean Kim dedicated 50 years of her life to helping those
stuck in the vicious cycle of poverty. She dedicated herself to true care and compassionate for those
experiencing homelessness. She didn't simply see someone as a homeless person and how the discomfort

of witnessing somebody struggling with homelessness impacted her. Instead she saw those struggling with
homelessness as humans with value and deserving of dignity, hope and care.
Councilmember L. Johnson said she first met Dr. Kim in 2015 after she started the Jean King Foundation
for Homeless Education, a non-profit dedicated to empowering those struggling with homelessness by
helping them achieve their academic and career training. She believed passionately in the power of
education to help end homelessness. In 2018, she partnered in the effort to build Shepherd's Village, a
community of six pallet homes for unhoused Edmonds College students. In April 2020, shortly after the
pandemic started, with a grant from Verdant, the Jean Kim Foundation started the Hygiene Center in
Lynnwood, giving those experiencing homelessness a chance to simply take a shower. Operating six days
a week, it is the only one of its kind in Snohomish County. In the first nine months of operation, the center
provided more than 8,000 showers to 738 individuals. What began as essential warm showers has grown to
include food, clean clothes, laundry service, sack lunches and volunteers who connect individuals to
community resources.
Councilmember L. Johnson asked the public to join her in honoring the Rev. Dr. Jean Kim's memory and
helping continue her mission of ending homelessness through education and providing basic needs to those
experiencing housing instability and homelessness. More about donation needs and volunteer opportunity
is available at JeanKimFoundation.org. The Rev. Dr. Jean Kim was small in stature, but she was a giant in
inspiration. May her memory be a blessing.
Councilmember Olson echoed Councilmember L. Johnson's commented regarding Rev. Dr. Kim. She gave
well deserved kudos to the Chamber of Commerce for hosting an Edmonds Kind of 4t''. Shorter timelines
due to uncertainty and justifiable concerns over the cost due to fundraisers that did not occur were all
obstacles that were overcome. It was a wonderful celebration and the grateful community says thank you.
COUNCIL PRESIDENT PAINE MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER L. JOHNSON, TO
EXTEND FOR 10 MINUTES. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Council President Paine hoped everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend. It was a nice break and she a
welcomed everyone back. The Council is getting closer to resuming in -person meetings. She will check
with the committee chairs about the timing of committee meetings. She appreciated everyone's patience cm
and looked forward to in -person Council meetings beginning July 20th

Councilmember K. Johnson referred to today's special meeting that did not include approval of the agenda
or audience comments, commenting it is difficult to add items to a special meeting and difficult for citizens
to know when to make comments. She suggested when the Council procedures are considered, those be
included as regular items on a special meeting agenda.°
Q
Councilmember K. Johnson was grateful for the number of vaccinated people and for the Governor
reopening the state and questioned whether Walkable Main Street was needed under these circumstances.
It was a good idea last year, but she wondered if it was a good idea this year. The merchants have spoken,
27 signed a letter requesting a compromise. She asked the Council President to put that on a future agenda
for a policy discussion.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas said she was not sure that was Council business. She plans to present a
resolution on behalf Jean Kim in two weeks. Her foundation has assisted people who are homeless find
housing and she deserves to be honored. The fact that she died the day before Independence Day means a
lot.
Councilmember Buckshnis offered kudos to the Chamber of commerce, commenting the parade was great
but she received numerous complaints about the traffic jam after the fireworks. It looked like everyone had

fun and it was a wonderful day. She suggested placing a discussion about the American Rescue Plan Act
on the agenda, what City plans to do, how much money the City will get, etc.
Councilmember Distelhorst thanked Councilmember L. Johnson for her words about Rev. Dr. Kim. He
gave kudos to the Chamber and all the participants, commenting he enjoyed marching with the Diversity
Commission, the first time they met in person since the pandemic started. He encouraged the public to get
vaccinated; the increase in variants is a direct result of people not getting vaccinated. The fewer people who
are vaccinated, the more everyone will have to live with the variants for some time. There have been
consistent spikes in COVID 10-15 days after major holidays like the 4t' of July. He encouraged people to
wear a mask when around people who may not be vaccinated or in enclosed spaces.
Student Representative Roberts thanked Councilmember L. Johnson for her comments about Rev. Dr. Kim.
Rev. Jean Kim was an incredible person and he was lucky to have had the chance to work with the Jean
Kim Foundation. She left behind a profound legacy and will be greatly missed. He invited the public to
consider donating to the Jean Kim Foundation. He hoped everyone had a happy and safe 4t' of July. He
gave a shout out to the Chamber of Commerce for the awesome parade and fireworks. He advised of the
Snohomish County Farmers Market Nutrition Program for individuals 60 and above or 55 and above for
Native Americans. The program is a $40 food voucher that can be used at numerous farmer's markets
throughout Snohomish County. As of last Wednesday, 300 vouchers remained. Community members can
apply through the Snohomish County website. As the new COVID strains continue to spread, he urged the
public to make safe choices, keep masks handy, get vaccinated, enjoy the outdoors and wear sunscreen.
12. MAYOR'S COMMENTS
Mayor Nelson hoped everyone had a wonderful 4' of July and said it was great see so many people at the 0
parade and the number of participants including all the horses. He thanked the Chamber of Commerce, City c
staff and volunteers for the team effort to organize it in such a short amount of time. He gave a special shout
out to everyone who worked on enforcing illegal fireworks. Over a year ago, he presented a stronger >
0
fireworks ordinance to Council as the fireworks ordinance had not been updated in 25 years. The Council n
approved the ordinance and the administration actively promoted the ordinance via a robust communication a
strategy that included social media, yard signs, Public Works' digital signs, etc. Additional officers were
deployed during the week leading up to July 4t'`, and additional citations were issued. The result was a 45% cm
reduction in the number of fireworks complaints this year compared to last year and there were no fires as
a result of fireworks. He thanked everyone who called in complaints and encouraged residents to continue w
reporting fireworks. The Governor announced a statewide ban on outdoor burning through September due
to the extreme fire danger. He reminded of the uptown market 4-9 p.m. on July 8' between Safeway and E
the Edmonds Lutheran Church.

Subject: Public notice errors and 7/6 council meeting
Hello,
Good Afternoon. I wanted to email to let you know that I will be unable to comment at tonight's
meeting due to travel. I also want to make you aware of persistent public notice errors. I had used the
meeting portal to look up the tree board meetings shortly after the emergency ordinance. The portal
had shown them in the afternoon (a time when I cannot attend), I now understand that the notice was
in error and that they are held in the evening. However when I tried to attend on July 2nd (as shown in
the attached photo) it became clear that the meeting was on the 1st. I have also found errors with the
posting of the planning board meetings. I am saddened and uncomfortable with the frequency of these
posting errors as they are a barrier to public participation and transparency into what has been a
planning process largely conducted in special committee (away from the public).
I am also under the impression from the last council meeting that some council members may view the
citizens tree board as a proxy for public participation. Such consideration of the tree board is false U
because the board has a clearly stated goal to support tree regulation. I continue to hope that the o

that are currently being developed, especially in areas annexed in the 60s, 90s and SR99 coordinator a

City Staff is requesting adoption of the draft Ordinance and associated Attachment A included
in the July 6, 2021 Agenda Packet updating the City's tree regulations.
The related discussion references highly flawed Ordinance 4218, an Ordinance the City Council
may want to repeal.
One thing we know about highly flawed Ordinance 4218 is that the City is acting like it was
effective immediately on March 2, 2021.

Packet Pg. 39
7.3.a
Why is the City treating Ordinance 4218 as an Emergency Ordinance but not treating Ordinance
4220 and this new proposed ordinance as Emergency Ordinances? Why the inconsistency?
The new proposed Ordinance claims that this Ordinance is an exercise of a power specifically
delegated to the City legislative body and is not subject to referendum. Please request specific
details supporting this claim. Doing so will help to build knowledge in this area.
As I emailed Council on April 2, 2021: Please make sure what is and isn't subject
to referendum is explained in detail to City Council and the public. This can be a confusing area
and it would help all if a solid, detailed explanation is provided.
From this point in time forward, I think City Council would be wise to require the details
whenever the author of an Ordinance claims that an Ordinance is an exercise of a power
specifically delegated to the City legislative body and is not subject to referendum. Thank you
for making this standard practice from now on. I hope all want to avoid effective date mistakes
in the future.
c
Please also read this complete draft Ordinance and associated Attachment A with great care a
looking for errors. I considered doing so but an error I have brought to Council and City Staff's
attention multiple times is still included in this latest proposal.
Please read this proposal very carefully and make sure it contains no additional errors. Our
Code already includes plenty of errors and we certainly do not want to adopt new Code v
containing errors. o
76
As the error I have previously brought to your attention is such an obvious error and as I have i
pointed it out in detail, it makes me wonder if City Council and City Staff are reading citizen Q
emails and Public Comments for Council Meetings.
N
How hard would it have been to have read all public comments submitted in writing out loud o
during Council Meetings? Such comments were limited to 450 words. w
As I've told you on multiple occasions, the Governor's March 24, 2020 proclamation states
meetings must provide the ability for all persons attending to hear each other at the same
time. I believe public comments submitted in writing should have been heard by all at the time
of the related meeting. a

I've lived in Edmonds for about 30 years. For most of those years I've looked out onto Civic Field
from my home.
After the land was purchased by the city from the school district in 2015, 1 was thrilled to see
plans taking shape for the Civic Field acreage, with enthusiastic community involvement during
meetings at the Plaza Room and in Council Chambers. That input led to an outstanding master
plan for a public recreational space that addressed many and diverse requests from community
members, and that could benefit folks of all ages.
It's been over four years since Council approved the master plan.
The land is already purchased, funding for the majority of the cost is in place, and significant
time has been invested thus far with testing, planning, funding, etc.
I am not surprised that construction costs have increased over the years during which this
project has been delayed.
I believe that it's time to move forward with this project. I support a Council vote to award the
contract to A-1 Landscaping to begin work on the basic master plan, and to approve additional
funds to cover the shortfall.
Thank you for your consideration.

excitement when the old grandstand came down and looked forward to seeing more progress

longer to get started on this project. Even with cost going up, I strongly encourage council to
vote yes on going forward with this project. I want to see this project happen, even if it means
finding ways to cut costs or perhaps work in phases until it's completed. This project is very
important to our community. Sincerely, Lucinda McMahan

The Civic Park project has vast public support as shown by the multitudes of citizens who

venture that the Civic Park project generated more public involvement than any other single
issue in Edmonds of the last few decades.
You have an opportunity to build a unique, spectacular park for Edmonds' citizens of today and

am particularly excited about the new landscaping!

Dear members of City Council,
The Civic Park project has been in the making for more than 10 years. Like most capital projects,
funding has been crafted from a series of grants, general fund pledges, loans, and contributions
by civic organizations over the years. This building block commitment to funding shows the solid
work that has been contributed by city residents and organizations who believe in this project
and are counting on the City Council to put the finishing touches on the process so construction
can begin. Civic Park is a flagship project for the City and its residents.
There has been overwhelming public support for the Civic Park project. Hundreds of people
participated in public meetings during the project's two-year design process. The Advisory

Committee worked diligently with City parks' representatives in working out ideas and addressing
public concerns. This has been the largest turnout for any public project I have seen.
When completed, Civic Park will offer a variety of benefits to people all over the City of Edmonds,
not just people in the Edmonds bowl. Planned events and activities for the park will be suitable
for people from all walks of life. The playground —for example --is one of the few in the region
that will be designed for children with mobility challenges. As such, it will be a draw for families
outside the City. A sports field is included in the design and will continue to support intra-mural
competition throughout the region.
Planned amenities for the Park appeal to people of all ages. The six petanque courts in the park
plan --a draw for older people --are next to the skate park filled with young skaters. Walking paths
are designed for people of all ages, and the skate park is a draw for skaters from all over the City.
This intergenerational design plan hits the bulls eye in park design and will be a huge draw for all
types of future sports activities. In fact, the Park's planned amenities will generate a variety of
new public relations opportunities for the City.
The Park will be capable of hosting future events that can generate more income for the City and
its residents. In addition to the Taste of Edmonds, Oktoberfest, July 4 fireworks and similar
events, new events will draw people into the City, increasing revenues.
In short, there is only an upside to completing a project that has been years in the making. The
City Council is just steps away from validating the public's strong support for completing Civic
Park. I urge you to approve the contract to complete work on Civic Park along with any additional
funding needed to take these final steps.

Edmonds can do its part to reduce impact on the climate by not adopting the Housing

Distinguished Members of Edmonds City Council,
These are comments I prepared for presentation at last night's (June 22, 2021) city counsel
meeting. Since the public comment period was cancelled and I was not able to read it, I am
sending it on to you today. I hope you will thoughtfully consider my two main points in
preparation for tomorrow's special housing study session.
Please, for the reasons I outlined here as well as many more regarding the esthetics of our
unique city, please do not change our single family zoning.
Thank you for the conscientious work you do to preserve the special character of our beautiful
Edmonds.
Regards,
Susan Hoekstra

To Mayor Nelson and members of Edmonds City Council:

meeting. However, the public comment time was eliminated at the last minute so it is being v
submitted this way.) °

My two comments are regarding the proposed changes in our single family housing and zoning 0
a
policies: Q
1. Negative Environmental impact:
Edmonds is a rare and unique waterfront city on Puget Sound. It is geographically located c
downslope from the heavily developed uplands of Snohomish County which has lately created w
far more pollution and runoff, much of which runs downhill into our beautiful city. a)
The result for Edmonds is that we have and will continue to experience more flooding and
negative impact on our shared watershed. Many citizens of Edmonds have already taken notice a
and are doing their part to stop this polluted runoff by planting trees, other vegetation and
even creating rain gardens to filter the water before it finally enters and negatively impacts
Puget Sound.
Edmonds finds itself the last line of defense against such an assault on the waterways and the
unfortunate recipient of the polluted uphill runoff. How can we ever even consider adding to
the environmental damage being carelessly done throughout the region? This is our chance to
take a stand and refuse to take part in the same kind of mindless permanent damage being
done around us to our home town.

7.3.a
We are a tiny plot of land in the global picture but we still have a responsibility to do our part
and not contribute to environmental degradation. Our existing single family zoning has allowed
the necessary open space for the vegetation and gardens which are key ingredients in
maintaining our healthy environment and ecosystem. Destroying that open space and adding
more people will permanently destroy the fundamental global environmental responsibility we
should be retaining.
2. Purpose for adding additional population being defeated:
The reason given for adding more population to our city is to provide more affordable housing
for the missing middle. In the past, the way many first-time home buyers bought homes was to
buy a small, old house, fix it up, and gradually work their way up to something larger. But now,
those buyers are being outbid by those who can readily afford to pay many thousands of dollars
over the asking price and whose intent is to tear the house down, develop that land and sell the
resulting multi -family homes for much more than the original house sold for.
We are defeating the whole purpose we so proudly think we are helping and would be doing
real damage to the esthetic charm and environmental conditions which are already in place.
For these reasons, and others, my husband Duane and Susan Hoekstra are opposed to changing
our existing single family zoning.

Subject: Process for Considering ECHC Recommendations w
w
c
a�
My name is Karen Haase Herrick. I have lived in Edmonds since 1989. 1 had the honor to serve E
as one of the 15 commissioners on the Edmonds Citizens Housing Commission which completed
its work January, 2021. My comments are meant to build on email comments sent to you a
already by another commissioner, several community groups and those made in online news
forums. I underscore the need to establish a vision of the future for Edmonds and guiding
principles that would bring that vision to life as well as serve as the guideposts for considering
each of the 15 ECHC recommendations.
The commissioners on the ECHC were inundated with many theoretical ideas to address
housing issues in Edmonds. We were also encouraged to expand our initial considerations for
affordable housing to change the focus to "equity" in housing. We were offered many articles
on theoretical approaches to increase the amount of missing middle housing and affordable
housing for those living on less than 80% of the Area Median Income [AMI]. I keep stressing the
word "theoretical" for a reason. And that reason is that I have continued to follow housing

7.3.a
issues around the country as well as this area. While still working on the ECHC, I searched for
any research showing that theoretical options truly produced more missing middle housing. I
found none. I have continued to look for research that documents added inventory of lower
cost housing by up -zoning to allow for DADUs, duplexes, triplexes, and quadruplexes. I still have
found none.
What I have found is articles only reporting on DADUs being built that disrupt the look and feel
of the areas in which they are built such as in Seattle, Ballard, and San Diego. Residents in these
cities report frustration with the increased flow in traffic, noise, and architectural imbalance.
This weekend, on the last page of PacificNW magazine, a duplex in Kirkland was listed for sale
for $2.6 million - that computes out to something less than affordable to the "missing middle"
potential homeowner. I cite this information to show that even anecdotal reporting does not
substantiate the claim that these types of changes to Edmonds' essential character will achieve
the stated objective of "equity" housing or providing affordable "missing middle" housing. To
be clear, I believe that anecdotal and theoretical discussions of housing types are not enough to
over -ride citizen concerns about infrastructure and crowding and allow for up -zoning that will
disrupt all single-family neighborhoods in Edmonds.
I am asking the Edmonds City Council members and Mayor Nelson to take a deep breath during
this study session on June 24. Please do these two things:
• Request that all survey results with comments gathered during the life of the ECHC be
provided to council members so that you can read for yourself what the residents of
Edmonds have to say about the proposed recommendations.
• Request - no demand - that city staff provide you with all research on up -zoning that
Q
shows outcomes of efficacy or lack of same through scientifically conducted research
N
across the nation.
0
1-1
W
You really should not have to ask for the above data, but it appears you need to. If there is no
c
research showing that up -zoning truly results in more affordable housing, that should tell you
something, should it not? Please do not go forward with theoretical ideas simply because
"everyone else is doing it" if there is no data to support its efficacy. If the public does not a
support it and it does not produce expected outcomes documented by research, then why up -
zone?
Thank you for the opportunity to share one perspective on this process for moving forward.
Respectfully,
Karen Haase Herrick

Compensation Policy(clean)
Packet Pg. 84
7.5.a
CHAPTER V
COMPENSATION
5.1 PURPOSE
The City is committed to maintaining a compensation program that ensures fairness, pay equity,
and external competitiveness for the purposes of attracting and retaining talented, engaged, and
diverse employees. The purpose of this policy is to provide guidance regarding City
compensation goals, subject to collective bargaining and fiscal constraints. All compensation
decisions will be made without regard to race, gender, sexual orientation, or any other protected
class
5.2 COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY
The City's compensation program should be designed to attract and retain dedicated,
hardworking, diverse, and talented employees who effectively support the mission of the City.
Therefore, the City's compensation philosophy shall be competitive in the relative market
considering all appropriate factors. Those factors include, but are not limited to, compensation
provided by comparable cities, pay equity and internal equity, and fiscal resources available to
the City. The total compensation program is made up of both pay and benefits.
The guiding principles set forth in this policy are expressed as general goals, with a full
understanding that wages and benefits are mandatory subjects of bargaining for represented
employees. This policy applies to non -represented City employees. It may also serve as a
guideline for the City Council in its decision making with regard to labor negotiations.
Compensation adjustment for non -represented employees are subject to City Council approval;
compensation adjustments for represented employees are subject to collective bargaining, and
ratification by the union(s) and City Council.
5.3 DEFINITIONS
A. Benchmark — A job or classification that is commonly found and defined, used to make
pay comparisons, either within the organization or to comparable jobs outside the
organization.
B. Compensation — Salary or hourly wages and City -paid benefits such as contributions
toward health coverage and other group insurance benefits, retirement, paid time off,
continuing education allowances, and any other fringe benefit received by employees.
C. Compensation Philosophy — A set of guiding principles that are based on values that drive
compensation decision making.
D. Pay Equity —The practice of compensating employees in a consistent and fairway for the
same or essentially similar work, regardless of race, gender, disability, sex, sexual
orientation or other status.
Packet Pg. 85
7.5.a
E. Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) — A periodic adjustment in wages or salaries to
compensate for loss in purchasing power of money due to inflation.
F. General Wage Increase —A wage or salary increase where either a flat rate or a common
percentage of salary is used.
G. Internal Equity — The pay relationships among jobs internal to the organization.
H. Labor Market —the market in which workers compete for jobs and employers compete for
workers.
Market Adjustment — An adjustment to bring the salary range for a job classification to
approximate market values, or to bring City benefits to approximate market values.
J. Salary Schedule — The levels or hierarchy of job classifications and pay ranges. Salary
schedules are generally constructed with consistent percentage changes between each
salary range and between the steps assigned to each salary range. Edmonds has
established as a standard a 5% increase between ranges and between steps within each
range.
K. Salary Range —A series of consecutive salary steps in the range comprising the pay rates
for a job classification.
L. Salary Compression — A condition in which jobs requiring significantly different levels of
responsibility or professional expertise have a pay differential that is too small to be
considered equitable.
5.4 COMPENSATION GOALS
The City's compensation philosophy is to be competitive in the relevant labor market considering
all appropriate factors. To carry out that philosophy, the City's compensation goals are:
A. To attract and retain, dedicated, hardworking, diverse, talented employees who are well
qualified to perform their duties in an ever evolving municipal government environment;
B. To pay employees fairly and to ensure pay equity and internal equity;
C. To be externally competitive by providing compensation commensurate with the labor
market;
D. To be fiscally responsible and legally defensible.
Packet Pg. 86
7.5.a
5.5 MARKET DEFINITION
The comparable labor market will be defined as Cities in Washington State based on population,
assessed valuation, and assessed valuation per capita with a bandwidth of 50% up and 50%
down. When establishing comparable cities, those located in Snohomish, King, Pierce, and
Thurston County will be given first priority. Cities outside these counties may be considered if a
statistically reasonable group of comparators is not established. Other local government agencies
and private employers may be taken into consideration when they are determined to be a relevant
factor in the labor market.
Because of the diversity and complexity of some positions at the City, the market for dept head
or management positions, or highly -specialized positions, may be a mix of public sector and
private sector employers. The relevant labor market will be defined in a manner that reflects the
primary industries or organizations where labor talent is found, recruited from, or lost to.
5.6 MARKET COMPETITIVENESS
To maintain pay and benefits that are competitive within the compensation of employers offering
similar employment and competing in the same labor market, the City sets compensation in
relation to the comparable labor market. However, the City recognized that there are conditions
where exceptions and flexibility may be necessary in situations which include but are not limited
to:
• Recruiting the desired level of talent in certain jobs is a sustained problem and results in
negative impacts to the City and the citizens we serve;
• Retention problems including succession and turnover;
• City priorities;
• Internal anomalies in alignment, disparities, or inconsistencies;
• Significant changes in the economy or marketplace;
• Limitations on available financial resources.
5.7 SALARY CLASSIFICATION AND GRADES
Each regular position within the City is classified into a classification title for salary purposes.
Each classification title is designated a particular pay grade as shown on the City's salary
schedule, which is approved in labor agreements or annually by the City Council. All City
employees are assigned to a classification title and provided a job description. This job
description shall be reviewed annually with the employee and the supervisor during the
employee's performance evaluation, and any changes to the classification shall be referred to the
Human Resources Office for review. Any change in a job classification, which would
subsequently require a change in salary grade assignment, must have prior approval by the
Mayor and City Council, and the appropriate Union as needed prior to the implementation of any
classification changes.
Packet Pg. 87
7.5.a
5.8 PAY RATES
Employees shall be paid within the limits of the wage range to which their positions are assigned.
Usually, new employees will start their employment at the first step on the salary range for their
classification. However, a new employee may be employed at a higher rate than the minimum
when the employee's experience, training or proven capability warrant, or when prevailing market
conditions require a starting rate greater than the minimum. Any placement above a step 3 at
hire is subject to the Mayor's approval. Requests for placement above a step 3 should first be
submitted to Human Resources for review who will then forward to the Mayor for approval. All pay
rates for new employees will be reviewed for pay equity to ensure that the City continues to
compensate employees consistently and fairly.
5.9 SALARY RANGE PROGRESSION
New employees are advanced to the next salary step increment after satisfactorily completing the
first six months of probation. After this, employees advance to the next step in the salary range
on the January following their anniversary date and each succeeding January after a concurrent
satisfactory overall performance evaluation has been completed by their supervisor, until reaching
the maximum step. An employee is considered not to have achieved a satisfactory overall
performance rating if two or more performance category areas in the evaluation receive less than
a "meets standards" rating. An employee who fails to achieve at least a satisfactory overall
performance rating on their annual performance evaluation shall not be eligible for a step increase
until their next performance evaluation rating period.
Employees who do not achieve a satisfactory overall performance rating will be immediately
placed on a performance improvement plan (PIP). The PIP will provide clear expectations to the
employee for the work performance items that must improve in order for the employee to achieve
a satisfactory overall performance rating by the next evaluation period (usually 3 and/or 6 months)
as determined under the PIP. A PIP also serves as a work plan for the employee that will likely
include individualized, supervisor -provided feedback and counseling on improving work
performance, as well as outlining any necessary areas of training or retraining in order for the
employee to succeed on the PIP.
5.10 NON -REPRESENTED EMPLOYEES' ANNUAL SALARY ADJUSTMENTS
The Mayor will recommend the adjustment of salary schedule for non -represented employees to
the City Council for approval as part of the budget process.
In addition, the City will attempt to mitigate compression issues as they arise. The Mayor will
make appropriate and timely recommendations to City Council to maintain internal equity and
prevent compression issues.
5.11 NON -REPRESENTED EMPLOYEES MARKET ANALYSIS
The Human Resources Department will conduct compensation surveys for non -represented
positions no later than September 1, every three years.
Packet Pg. 88
7.5.a
Salary ranges for positions will be determined by using the prevailing rates in the identified
comparator cities. The City will be competitive within the defined market, but normally will not
assume the position of a lead pay policy compared to the market; therefore, the median or 50t"
percentile of the mid -range of salary data collected will be used to determine competitiveness.
Deviations from this may be considered by Council where such deviations are consistent with the
established compensation philosophy.
Every three years, based upon the survey data, the Mayor will recommend salary range market
adjustments for non -represented positions to City Council. The Mayor will consider the following
goals in developing the recommendation:
1. Maintain the mid -point of each salary range between 5% high/low of the mid -point of the
comparator city median.
a. Positions requiring adjustment will be assigned to the new salary range within the
salary schedule that places the position closest to the comparator cities' median.
2. Ensure that positions which are essentially similar are internally equitable
3. Address any issues of compression between non -represented supervisory positions and
their direct reports.
4. Any employee whose actual salary falls below the newly adopted pay range minimum,
shall be adjusted up to the new minimum upon adoption of the new pay ranges.
5. Any employee whose actual salary exceeds the top of the approved salary range, will have
their salary frozen until such time as the salary range for that position catches up to the
compensation of the employee.
5.12 PROMOTION
An employee promoted to a position in a higher classification and salary range shall receive a
promotional pay increase to either 1) the entry step or salary of the new salary range, 2) the next
highest available pay step in the new range which provides at least a 5% increase in pay, or 3) to
start at the bottom of the pay grade of the higher classification, whichever is greater. Changes in
salary due to a Reclassification of a position will be treated the same as a Promotion. Promotions
change an employee's pay anniversary date and subsequent merit pay reviews. Promotions for
positions covered by a collective bargaining agreement will be handled per the provisions of that
agreement.
An employee transferring from one position to another which are in the same pay range will not
be considered a promotion.
5.13 PAYDAYS
City employees are paid semi-monthly on the 5th and the 20th of each month. If a regularly
scheduled payday falls on the weekend or a holiday, the paychecks will be distributed on the last
preceding regularly scheduled working day. Automatic deposit is available upon request. Pay
increases, other than those occurring upon the 1 st or the 16t" of the month, become effective at
the beginning of the next pay period.
Packet Pg. 89
7.5.a
5.14 ERRORS IN PAY
Every effort is made to avoid errors in paychecks. However, any employee who believes that an
error has been made should contact the Finance Department immediately. The Finance
Department will take the necessary steps to research the problem and to assure that any
necessary correction is made properly and promptly. An employee reporting an error will be
notified in writing within 15 business days of the outcome. An employee who believes further
discrepancies exist should submit a written complaint to Human Resources immediately. If an
employee has been overpaid in error, the City will ask that the amount be repaid by payroll
deductions or by agreement, consistent with applicable laws.
5.15 DEDUCTIONS
Some regular deductions from the employee's earnings are required by law; all other deductions
must be approved by the City and specifically authorized in writing by the employee. The City will
withhold from the employee's paycheck those deductions required by law and any voluntary
deductions approved by the City and authorized by the employee, by applicable union contract,
or by statute or regulation.
5.16 ACTING PAY
When an employee is temporarily assigned to work in a position with a higher pay rate in order to
fill a vacancy or act on behalf of an absent employee, the employee shall be paid Acting Pay in
the amount of either the minimum of the salary rate of the acting position or a 5% increase in base
pay, whichever is greater. To qualify, the employee must be assigned to the acting position for
a period of ten (10) or more consecutive workdays. Acting Pay is limited to a six month period as
noted in the City Ordinance. Any extenuating circumstances requiring Acting pay for a period
beyond six months are subject to the Mayor and City Council's approval, or subject to applicable
Civil Service Rules.
5.17 SPECIAL DUTY PAY
The Mayor is authorized to pay any manager or director level employee special duty pay in
addition to that person's regular compensation when the Mayor has temporarily assigned special
duties to that person. No employee may receive special duty pay for longer than one year without
city council approval. "Special duties" are defined as those duties not included as essential
functions in the employee's official job classification and not otherwise associated with the
employee's position.
Special duty pay shall consist of up to ten percent of the employee's salary at the time the special
duties are assigned. The Mayor is authorized to grant to each such employee up to five percent
(5%) for special duty pay at the Mayor's discretion, and shall be based upon the scope of the
additional responsibilities identified by the Mayor. If the Mayor determines that special duty pay
above five percent (5%) is warranted for a particular employee, the Mayor will be authorized to
grant up to ten percent (10%) for special duty pay upon prior approval by the City Council.
Packet Pg. 90
7.5.a
5.18 COMPENSATION UPON TERMINATION
When an employee's employment with the City is terminated, the employee will receive the
following compensation on the next regularly scheduled payday including: 1) regular wages for
all hours worked up to the time of termination which have not already been paid; 2) any overtime
or holiday pay due; 3) A lump sum payment of any accrued but unused vacation and
compensatory time and; 4) any employee -paid health insurance premiums paid in advance for
health insurance coverage. Accrued sick leave will be paid in accordance with City Ordinance
and Personnel Policies for Non -Represented employees, or the applicable collective bargaining
agreement for Union Employees.
5.19 RECLASSIFICATION
It is the supervisor's responsibility to maintain the employee's primary job assignments within the
scope of the existing job classification, until a revised job classification is approved. Requests for
revised job classifications can be made by the Department Director to the Human Resources
department. In the event that an employee is eligible for a reclassification as determined by
his/her supervisor, a reclassification form and a revised job description, along with the
recommended pay grade should be submitted to Human Resources for review. All revised job
descriptions and reclassification requests are subject to the Mayor's approval, before submittal to
the City Council for their approval and/or the respective Union as required.

City Council Agenda Item
Meeting Date: 07/13/2021
Civic Center Playfield Park Construction Contracts
Staff Lead: Angie Feser
Department: Parks, Recreation & Cultural Services
Preparer: Angie Feser
Narrative
Civic Center Playfield Park project is the renovation of an 8-acre park in downtown Edmonds. The May
27, 2021 project bid opening resulted in A-1 Landscaping and Construction determined to be the lowest
bidder. The qualifying Base Bid plus Bid Alternate #2 - Rubber Track Surface results in a contract award
amount of $10,135,596. (Attachment #1 - Bid Tabulation). The construction bid is valid for 60 days and
requires Council consideration for award in the next few weeks to remain viable. Two additional
contracts providing construction support require approval by Council for the project to proceed. The
first is an amendment to an existing Landscape Architecture Consulting Services Professional Services
Agreement with the firm Walker Macy for $91,473 (Attachment #3) and the second is a new
Professional Services Agreement for Inspection Services provided by KBA, Inc. for the fee of $613,251.
(Attachment #4)
This agenda item is to provide information for the Council to consider approving the three contracts
necessary to begin the renovation of the park. Of the four project alternates, the Council indicated the
rubberized perimeter path surfacing alternate should be included in the project scope. The other three,
an interactive water feature at the park entrance, a scramble/climbing wall and street tree grates were
not included in the construction agreement and can be installed later.
Total cost for project construction is estimated at $13,757,730 resulting in a shortfall $1,634,447 based
on current funding allocation (See Attachment #5 - Project Construction Funding/Expenditures). The
Council may award to construction contracts with the condition of the funding program to address the
gap to be determined in the next couple of months. There is sufficient funding available to start the
project and pay for expenditures well into 2022, but the funding balance is needed by late 2022 to finish
the project. Council could request the Finance Committee make a recommendation for the funding
options for the amount needed to cover the balance.
Staff Recommendation
To proceed the construction of the Civic Center Playfield Park, staff is recommending Council award A-1
Landscaping and Construction the Base Bid and Alternate #2 of Rubberized Pathway Surfacing for the
sum of $10,135,596. In addition, approve both the Walker Macy Professional Services Agreement
Amendment No. 2 for $91,473 and the KBA Professional Services Agreement of $613,251.
Staff also recommends the Council address the project funding gap by committing to developing a
funding program in the near future in order to complete the two-year project.

Background/History
In early 2016, after leasing for 40 years, the nearly 8-acre Civic Center Playfield property was acquired by
the City from the Edmonds School District for $1.9M with all but $400,000 funded by grants.
A year after acquisition in 2017, a Master Plan using a robust public process was adopted by Council
with the work of consulting firm of Walker Macy. The same firm was later approved by the Council to
complete the design development, permitting, bidding, and support during construction.
In 2018, the City began applying for grants and in November of that year the Council adopted the Parks
Capital Improvement (CIP) and Capital Facilities (CFP) Plans identifying Civic Park as a project and it was
approved each year since. Also, in 2018, the 50-year old Grandstand was demolished. The next year,
2019, the Council issued the $3.7m bond to fund construction.
The project went out to bid early 2020, but was not successful. Elements of the project were revised and
the project was re -bid twice 2021. The last round of construction bids was opened May 271h with five
submittals and has verified that A-1 Landscaping and Construction is the successful low bidder.
Park Design
The proposed park renovation project includes youth athletic fields, upgraded sports lighting,
permanent restrooms, shade pavilion, improved skate park, petanque court grove, a pollinator meadow,
tennis, pickleball and basketball courts, a 1/3-mile perimeter walking path, fully inclusive playground,
picnic areas, public art and more.
There are four project alternates in addition to the base project including a water feature, rubberized
track surface, scramble climbing wall and tree grates that are designed, permitted and could be added
to park installation. They were separated from the base bid for consideration of potential cost savings.
The existing Field House, leased to Boys & Girls Club of Snohomish County since 1962, will remain intact
as well as a designated 20,000 square foot area around it to enable the Boys & Girls Club to continue
operations.

THE CONTRACTOR SHOULD READ AND RESPOND TO THIS FORM CAREFULLY.
Indicia of contractors responsibility inherently involve subjective determinations as to
the contractor's ability to perform and complete the contract work responsibly and to
the owner city's satisfaction. The city has an obligation and a duty to its citizens and its
taxpayers to administer its budgets and complete its projects in a businesslike manner.
Accordingly, it has a duty to exercise the type of inquiry and discretion a business would
conduct when selecting a contractor who will be responsible to perform the contract work.
The city's supplemental criteria are based, in part, on the qualification statement form
used by the American Institute of Architects. The city provides these criteria so as to
provide the most objective framework possible within which the city will make its decision
regarding the contractor's ability to be responsible to perform the contract work. These
criteria, taken together, will form the basis for the city's decision that a contractor
is or is not responsible to perform the contract work.

RE: Edmonds Civic Center Playfield, Stormwater Design at Yost Park
Dear Shannon,
Due to high groundwater conditions at the Edmonds Civic Center Playfield (ECCP) site, the project team
encountered challenges in designing a code -compliant, on -site stormwater detention system for the
proposed development. As a result, the City of Edmonds (City) and the ECCP design team are exploring
the feasibility of installing stormwater infiltration facilities at City -owned Yost Park as a "detention trade" to
partially satisfy flow control requirements at ECCP. The design at Yost will focus on shallow infiltration
facilities (infiltrating bio retention) rather than UIC wells based on preliminary site evaluation conducted by
Shannon & Wilson.
Walker Macy proposes the following sub -consultant team to assist us on the project:
• Geotechnical: Shannon & Wilson
• Civil Engineer: KPFF Consulting Engineers
• Survey: KPFF Consulting Engineers
SCOPE OF WORK:
1. Infiltration Feasibility Evaluation
1.1. Conduct a site visit with the City to identify drilling locations.
1.2. Drill and install two wells approximately 80 feet deep. Each well will be competed with a flush -
mounted monument.
1.3. Perform geotechnical laboratory tests on the samples.
1.4. Perform visual geologic reconnaissance of the steep slopes between the Yost pool and parking
areas.
1.5. Prepare a report detailing the results of the field explorations, site reconnaissance and laboratory
testing.
2. Site Survey
2.1. Perform site survey to establish site control and mapping points on Washington State Plane
Coordinates NAD 83/91 and vertical datum on NAVD 88
2.2. Prepare boundary base map and plot easements affecting the subject property.
2.3. Perform topographic survey of the site as outlined by the design team.

E. Assumptions
1. Budget:
a. Staffing levels are anticipated in accordance with the attached budget estimate.
Consultant services are budgeted for an approximate 17-month period, from May 17,
2021 through October 12, 2022. This is intended to span the originally planned
construction duration of 314 working days, plus ten days for Project setup and six weeks
for closeout. No Overtime has been figured into the budget. The Project Administrator
has been estimated at half time.
b. Consultant will work up to the limitations of the authorized budget. If additional budget is
needed to cover such instances as the following, Client and Consultant will negotiate a
supplement to this Agreement:
i. The contractor's schedule requires inspection coverage of extra crews and shifts.
ii. The construction contract runs longer than the time period detailed above.
iii. Any added scope tasks.
iv. The work is anticipated to be performed during daytime hours. Should night work be
necessary, a 15 percent differential for labor will be applied to all night shift hours
worked by Consultant's employees.
c. Consultant Inspector will work out of their vehicle.
d. The budget allocations shown on Exhibit B are itemized to aid in Project tracking
purposes only. The budget may be transferred between people, or between labor and
expenses, provided the total contracted amount is not exceeded without prior
authorization.
e. Should Consultant's level of effort extend beyond the time period detailed in the attached
Exhibit B - Estimate, and into a new year, labor rates will adjust annually on January 1,
with 30-day written notice to Agency.
2. Items and Services Client will provide:
a. Meeting arrangements and facilities for pre -bid and preconstruction meetings. Prepare
and distribute meeting notes from pre -bid meeting(s), if any.
b. Retain Engineer of Record for shop drawing review, RFIs, design changes, and final
record drawings.
c. Coordination with and enforcement of utility franchise agreements and/or contracts and
schedules for services related to this Project.

8.1.d
KBA, Inc. February 23, 2021
d. Verify that the required permits, bonds, and insurance have been obtained and submitted
by the construction contractor. Obtain all permits not required to be provided by
construction contractor.
e. Construction Survey. Provide project control survey and staking that is not already
assigned to the construction contractor.
3. Scope:
a. Consultant will provide observation services for the days/hours that its' Inspector(s)
personnel is/are on -site. The Inspector(s) will not be able to observe or report
construction activities, or collect documentation, during the time they are not on -site.
The Consultant's monitoring of the construction contractor's activities is to ascertain
whether or not they are performing the work in accordance with the Contract Documents;
in case of noncompliance, Consultant will reject non -conforming work and pursue the
other remedies in the interests of the Client, as detailed in the Contract Documents. The
Consultant cannot guarantee the construction contractor's performance, and it is
understood that Consultant shall assume no responsibility for proper construction means,
methods, techniques, Project site safety, safety precautions or programs, or for the failure
of any other entity to perform its work in accordance with laws, contracts, regulations, or
Client's expectations.
c. Definitions and Roles. The use of the term "inspect" in relation to Consultant services is
synonymous with "construction observation," and reference to the "Inspector" role is
synonymous with "Field Representative," and means: performing on -site observations
and/or monitoring of the progress and quality of the Work and determining, in general, if
the Work is being performed in conformance with the Contract Documents; and notifying
the Client if Work does not conform to the Contract Documents or requires special
inspection or testing. Where "Specialty Inspector" or "specialty inspection" is used, it
refers to inspection by a Building Official or independent agent of the Building Official, or
other licensed/certified inspector who provides a certified inspection report in accordance
with an established standard.
d. Because of the prior use of the Project site, there is a possibility of the presence of toxic
or hazardous materials. Consultant shall have no responsibility for the discovery,
presence, handling, removal or disposal of toxic or hazardous materials, or for exposure
of persons to toxic or hazardous materials in any form at the Project site, including but
not limited to asbestos, asbestos products, polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB), or other toxic
substances. If the Consultant suspects the presence of hazardous materials, they will
notify the Client immediately for resolution.
e. Consultant is not responsible for any costs, claims or judgments arising from or in any
way connected with errors, omissions, conflicts or ambiguities in the Contract Documents
prepared by others. The Consultant does not have responsibility for the professional
quality or technical adequacy or accuracy of the design plans or specifications, nor for
their timely completion by others.
f. Consultant's indemnity and defense obligations are limited to the extent of those
damages directly caused by the negligent acts, errors, or omissions of the Consultant.
Any damages and/or costs that may be recovered shall be limited to the total amount
authorized for this Project.
g. RCW 4.24.115 is applicable to Consultant's services provided under this Agreement.
h. Services provided by the Consultant under this Agreement will be performed in a manner
consistent with that degree of care and skill ordinarily exercised by members of the same
profession currently practicing under similar circumstances, in the same geographical
area and time period. Nothing in the Agreement is intended to create, nor shall it be
construed to create, a fiduciary duty owed by either party to the other.

Proiect Alternates
In consideration of possible cost consideration, there are four project alternates which have the
option of being added to the base project including the entry plaza water feature, rubberized
track surface, scramble climbing wall and tree grates. These elements are fully designed, have

construction contract. (See background/history for more details of each alternate).

Protect Alternates
In consideration of possible cost savings, four alternates were identified as options to add to the
base project. Each one is fully design and permitted and could be added to the base construction
contract. Details of those options include -
Alternate #1— Water Feature
This element provides an interactive water spray amenity at the park's entry plaza on the western
edge on 6t" Avenue. Adding the alternate to the project would provide the above ground features
as the infrastructure for the water amenity are currently included in the existing base bid
construction. If not selected, this feature could be installed at a later date, but more than likely
at a higher cost.
Alternate #2 — Rubberized Track Surfacing
The current construction includes an asphalt surface for the 1/3-mile perimeter walking/running
path in the park. This alternate would provide a rubberized surfacing applied on top of the asphalt
surface, which is the typical base for this rubberized surface material. If not selected, the asphalt
pathway would still provide a sufficient and commonly used surface for the path use. The
surfacing could be installed at a later time, but at a higher cost than if installed with the project.
Alternate #3 — Scramble Climbing Wall
This feature in the northwest corner of the park, uses the required site grading and berming to
provide a shorter climbing wall feature. Stormwater treatment elements are located in this area
and produce a grade elevation, which the climbing wall incorporates. If this is not selected, it
would be considerably more difficult and expensive to construct in the future.
Alternate #4 — Tree Grates
The current base bid proposes using another material in the tree wells for the 16 street trees
along 6t" Avenue rather than metal tree grates. Adding this alternate to the project would provide
for the installation of 4'x6' metal tree grates instead of either mulch or plant material in the tree
wells.

Preparer: Patrick Doherty
Background/History
Our city and region continue to experience a public health and economic emergency due to the COVID-
19 pandemic, which has led to sudden job losses, lower paychecks, and increased household costs to
deal with COVID-19 impacts for many residents, as well as business/revenue losses for many local
businesses.
Governor Inslee declared a state of emergency due to the COVID-19 crisis on February 29, 2020. Mayor
Nelson declared an emergency of the city due to the COVID-19 crisis on March 5, 2020.
The state of emergency continues to this day even though the availability of vaccinations has curbed the
health impacts of the pandemic. In 2020 the Edmonds City Council previously adopted Ordinances
4189, 4195, and 4196 to allocate federal CARES Act funding. (Attached is a summary of the

increased instances of stormwater runoff, water pollution, and flooding. Green infrastructure
projects that support stormwater system resiliency could include rain gardens that provide water
storage and filtration benefits, and green streets, where vegetation, soil, and engineered systems
are combined to direct and filter rainwater from impervious surfaces;

RE: EDMONDS CARES FUND PROGRAM RECAP
DATE: 7/13/2021
The Edmonds Cares Fund was created by City Council by Ordinance 4189, and amended by Ordinance

community.
The Fund created the following programs:

entire fund amount was spent on required City expenditures, including an additional $5,000 (see below)
Housing and Supplementary Relief Program. $580,000 for $1000 and $1500 grants to households
earning less than 60% of Edmonds Average Mean Income (AMI). Three social services agencies were
engaged to administer this program: Homage, Washington Kids in Transition, and Wellspring. Following
is a summary of the grants awarded:
Homage
121 households served
$182,334 expended
Washington Kids in Transition
166 households served

• Washington Kids in Transition offered grants to households with an average AMI in the 30-40%
bracket.
• Wellspring offered grants to households with the following breakdown of AMI:
0 50% to under 30% AMI

Edmonds Food Bank Support. $35,000. $26,344 of this found was used. This funding allowed the
Edmonds Food Bank to buy a refrigerated truck with shelving that facilitated more efficient and effective
storage and delivery of food to their clients, enabling them to serve more people.
LEAP Program. $37,500. Distance Learning Support Program (LEAP) was developed by the Recreation
Services Division of the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department. The program began on
October 12, 2020, averaged 30 participants, with 87% on full needs -based scholarships. Many of the
children were on Individualized Education Plans (IEP's) through their school and required a hands-on
individualized approach. In addition to academic support, the social -emotional support for the kids was
tremendous, according to parents. Many of these kids were battling depression, negative self -talk and
were feeling very isolated. The LEAP program supported their social, emotional and academic needs.
The entire allocation was used.
Remaining Funds. $8,656 remained unused by the Food Bank, and $1,500 remained unused by the
Business Grant Program, for a total of $10,156. As provided for Ordinance 4189, up to 10% of any
Program Fund (above) was allowed to be reallocated by the Mayor to other Programs. As such, $3,500
from the amount left over by the Food bank and the $1,500 left over from the Business Grant program
(totaling $5000) were reallocated to City Expenditures (see above mention). The remaining $5,156 was
used to buy Personal Protective Equipment for Edmonds residential care facilities, as required by Section
5 the Ordinance.
