ACTION ITEMS

BUDGET ITEMS/WARRANTS:

1. Restoration of Departmental Assistant for 2004 to 1 FTE in the Community Development and Planning Department — (Refer to PERSONNEL ISSUES for additional details and action taken.)

2. Rejection of Terrorism Insurance Coverage — Present: Dave Zeretzke, Administrative Services Manager.

Referring to his Staff Report dated October 1, 2003, Mr. Zeretzke informed the BOCC that under the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, a premium charge of $3,756 would be added to the annual property insurance for the County unless formally rejected by the insured party. Based upon the information provided, he recommended rejection of this coverage.

The following action was taken: Moved by Evans, seconded by Nielsen, to decline participation in the terrorism property insurance for the year 2003-2004 and to direct Mr. Zeretzke to officially inform the broker of this decision. Motion carried.

PERSONNEL ISSUES:

1. Restoration of Departmental Assistant for 2004 to 1 FTE in the Community Development and Planning Department and Planning Staff Changes — Present: Joseph McKenna-Smith, Community Development and Planning Department (CDPD) Director and Dave Zeretzke, Administrative Services Director.

Mr. McKenna-Smith requested reconsideration of the action taken by the BOCC on September 9, 2003 with regard to the Long Range Planning Manager position and the decision to cut a Departmental Assistant (DA) position from full time to half time. He informed the Board that the position of Long Range Planning Manager offered to the former Planning Director was not accepted. He requested filling an opening for a second Senior Planner. He explained that he had met with Francine Shaw, CDPD Deputy Director, and CDPD staff on the most favorable approach for proceeding. After detailing the discussions held within his department, he presented their recommendations as follows:

(1) They have concluded there should only be two management positions in the CDPD (the Director and Deputy Director); (2) That, based upon the workload, the former compliment of four FTE DA positions be restored from the 3.5 FTE reduction decision made on September 9; (3) that in lieu of a Long Range Planning Manager position, the BOCC authorize filling that vacancy with a qualified Senior Planner at Range N (previously the BOCC had authorized sending a position description to the SJC Classification Committee at Range Q for the management position, and authorized offering said position at Step 3 to Ms. Laura Arnold).

Mr. McKenna-Smith estimated that the savings realized in reducing the third management position to a Senior Planner would almost cover the restoration of the .5 DA position.

The BOCC discussed the proposal and the current projected 2004 budget figures. It was pointed out that the consolidation had an estimated savings of $150,000; however, the current estimated savings have been reduced to approximately $90,000.

In summary, the BOCC was in agreement with reinstating the DA position to full time as long as certain other reductions were possible. They were also in preliminary agreement for the elimination of the planning management position and consideration of the Senior Planner position.

Commissioner Nielsen favored raising building and other permit fees to cover the cost of “doing business.” Commissioner Evans favored hiring a qualified planner that could be groomed into management should there be future openings or temporary assignments. The Board also wanted excellent public relations skills and someone who could coordinate with Public Works on several projects. Mr. McKenna-Smith stated that Ms. Shaw had already taken on the duties of effectively interfacing and working with Public Works on the issues at hand.

Commissioner Miller stated that the budget reduction numbers needed to be more than the $90,000 and favored a reduction in the Building Inspector Staff if the voters did not pass the proposed levy lid lift. Her preference would be a reduction in that staff from the current 4.0 FTE. She explained to Mr. Zeretzke and Mr. McKenna-Smith that consideration of the posting of the Senior Planning position could not be approved until the proper paperwork had been submitted to the Board with written concurrence from Administrative Services for tracking purposes. Mr. Zeretzke was directed to bring the required paperwork back to the BOCC by the end of the day if possible.

The following action was then taken: Moved by Evans, seconded by Nielsen, to rescind the motion made by the BOCC on September 9, 2003, as reported in the minutes on lines 291 through 293, that reduced one Departmental Assistant position from 1 FTE to 0.5 FTE; and, to restore this position to full-time for the 2004 CDPD Budget. Motion carried.

2. Request to Post a Temporary 4-H Coordinator Position — (Refer to BOCC ADMINISTRATIVE SESSIONS, Administrative Services Department, for additional details.) Moved by Evans, seconded by Miller, to authorize the positing of a part-time, temporary 4-H Coordinator position for the WSU Extension Office, as outlined in the memo from Tom Schultz, WSU Cooperative Extension Chair, dated September 29, 2003, at 26 hours per week, at Range F, Step 1. Motion carried with Commissioner Nielsen opposed.

DISCUSSION ITEMS — NO ACTION TAKEN

1. WA State Association of Counties (WSAC) and WA Association of County Officials (WACO) Conference Update — Commissioner Nielsen reported to the Board that she was appointed as the Co-Chair of the Legislative Steering Committee with Leo Bowman, Benton County Commissioner. She itemized the numerous issues covered during the joint meeting:

They accomplished the adoption of a new policy statement and discussed the Growth Management Act and budget issues. The new Tri Association Legislative Package, which deals with the issues of cities and counties was ratified at the conference. New language was proposed for dealing with unfunded mandates. It is anticipated that the new budget for 2004 will have an estimated 1.8 billion dollars in additional cuts from this year. She brought back a packet of information for review of the BOCC.

Ms. Nielsen announced that she had completed the Certified Public Official’s Course and received her certificate of completion and official pin. Fellow Commissioners Evans and Miller congratulated her on achieving her certification and on being the Co-Chair of the Committee.

PUBLIC HEARINGS/MEETINGS

10:00 a.m. — A public hearing was held to consider and Open Open Space application for Linda Henry and Pam Loew, Orcas Island, File No. 03OS001. Present: Lee McEnery, Community Development and Planning Department (CDPD) representative, and Linda Henry, applicant.

Ms. McEnery presented the Staff Report dated September 29, 2003. Public testimony was opened, none submitted, and closed. Deliberations were held and following action was taken:

Moved by Evans, seconded by Nielsen, to approve the Open Open Space application for Linda Henry and Pam Loew for approximately 55 acres on Orcas Island, File No. 03OS001, based upon the recommendation of the SJC Planning Commission and CDPD Staff Report dated September 29, 2003. Motion carried.

WORK SESSIONS

1:30 p.m. — A 2004 Budget work session was held for the Public Works Group including Roads, ER&R, Solid Waste, Building and Grounds, and BioSolids Fund. Present: Jon Shannon, Public Works Director; Charlotte Dye, Chief Deputy Auditor; Cinda Sue Dow, Public Works Cost Accountant; Gerald Rasmussen, County Engineer; and interested members of the public. Also present for a portion of the session was Si Stephens, SJC Auditor.

In summary, Mr. Shannon began by stating that this work session was a continuation of prior sessions held for his department’s budget issues. He noted that the Six-Year Transportation Plan would be coming before the Board next week; however, the BOCC needed to resolve the amount of levy funding for his department in order to be able to clearly address the Public Works Budget for 2004.

The Buildings and Grounds Division’s proposed budget was reviewed. The Auditor’s office will work with Mr. Shannon to establish an accounting method for tracking purposes within the existing fund. The Board discussed at length the Road Budget and how funding should be allocated. Due to time constraints, it was agreed that this work session needed to be continued for further consideration of some of the issues including the amount of Road Levy for 2004. No action was taken.

2:36 p.m. — A 2004 Budget work session was held for the Community Development and Planning Department (CDPD). Present: Joseph McKenna-Smith, CDPD Director, and Charlotte Dye, Chief Deputy Auditor.

Based upon the information provided to the BOCC in the morning session regarding the reinstatement of a Departmental Assistant position to full time and the substitution of a Senior Planner for the Long Range Planning Manager position, Mr. McKenna-Smith presented a proposal to increase specific fees to provide additional revenue for his department in 2004.

The memo dated October 2, 2003, presented the summary of recommended fee increases along with adjusted advertising costs to be charged to applicants for a total estimated increase in revenue of $21,950. The Board discussed these recommendations at length. Current activity in the CDPD was then reviewed. Ms. Dye broke down which figures were already listed in the preliminary budget so there would be no repetition of entries. She added that because the Permit Center and Planning Department budgets will be combined under the newly created department, the Maintenance and Operations (M&O) expenses will be combined for 2004. The programs that were under the Planning Department such as the Bottomfish Recovery Program will now be incorporated into the CDPD budget.

The BOCC also agreed for budget preparation that the previously approved Long Range Planning Manager position will no longer exist and a second Senior Planner position will be substituted in its place. Mr. McKenna-Smith announced that he and Mr. Zeretzke would attempt to have the requested paperwork ready by the end of the day. If not, then this issue will be carried over to the following week. No formal action was taken.

3:15 p.m. — A 2004 Budget work session was held for the Capital Facilities Group consisting of the County Agent, Fair, Parks, and Conservation District. Present: Dona Wuthnow, SJC Parks Superintendent; Tom Schultz, WSU Extension Agent; Charlotte Dye, Chief Deputy Auditor; Christine Miller, SJC Fair Coordinator; Jon Shannon, Public Works Director; and interested parties.

Ms. Wuthnow began with a verbal presentation of a new handout entitled “County Parks Budget 2004 — Highlights.” This summary addressed the anticipated cuts in Current Expense Funding, revenue sources such as fees and grants, and proposed projects for 2004.

The BOCC discussed certain projects. No action was taken. Mr. Schultz presented a new summary handout from his WSU Extension Office. He addressed the programs offers by his department and covered revenue sources and volunteer contributions. He proudly announced that the SJC 4-H program has over 1,000 youth enrolled this year. This is the second highest in the state. WSU has been in SJC since 1921 and is mandated by the federal government. The Board discussed the various programs and proposed budget. No action was taken.

Ms. Miller presented the proposed Fair Budget, which had been adjusted to reflect reduced Central Services charges to her department. Ms. Dye confirmed that these new figures were verified with Central Services. Ms. Miller also explained that the previously reduced County Current contribution to her department would result in a reduction in personnel hours for her position and for maintenance and grounds personnel. Capital projects were also discussed. No action was taken.

The Board requested that additional time be scheduled for the Conservation District to hear their proposed budget, as they did not attend this work session.

BOCC ADMINISTRATIVE SESSIONS

Administrative Services Department (ASD) — Present: Dave Zeretzke, ASD Director; Bruce McDanold, Information Systems Manager; and guests Steve Simpson, Port of Friday Harbor Director; Jon Shannon, Public Works Director; Beth Anderson, OPALCO representative; Richard Civille, Economic Development Council (EDC) representative; and interest citizens.

Agenda:

(1) OPALCO Fiber Optic Network Update — Mr. Zeretzke presented a report titled the “Fiber Optic Network Summary: Island Network,” dated October 2003. This report detailed the history of the project undertaken by OPALCO to implement a fiber optic network in SJC. The project is to be phased and will be on a “pay as you go” financial model. Beth Anderson is the manager of the project and spoke to the BOCC and audience on the details of the venture. Mr. Civille addressed the EDC’s involvement.

The Board thanked all the participants for their efforts in undertaking to provide broadband capabilities in the County. The BOCC was acknowledged for their support throughout the process. Commissioner Evans made a motion to include this project in the Economic Development Plan and Capital Facilities Plan. There was no second.

The BOCC Clerk/Office Manager Lil Hamel explained the process that would need to take place to facilitate accomplishing this incorporation and other funding factors for the benefit of those present. Mr. Zeretzke noted that there will be an expert from Benton County assisting the parties involved.

(2) Terrorism Insurance — (Refer to BUDGET ITEMS/WARRANTS for details.)

(3) Request to Post and Hire a Temporary Part-Time 4-H Coordinator — Tom Schultz, WSU Extension Agent, was present for this discussion. He explained that the present 4-H Coordinator was granted a six-month leave of absence and that without a designated person to continue the duties of this position, the 4-H Program would greatly suffer. His memo to the BOCC dated September 29, 2003 addressed these issues in detail. Mr. Zeretzke had recommended that other personnel from the Extension Office staff fill in during the interim period rather than approving a temporary person.

The BOCC discussed at length the pros and cons of the two recommendations and agreed that with the amount of work involved and the estimated cost savings of a temporary employee, it was in the best interest of the County and the 4-H Program to approve the request to post this position as listed. (Refer to PERSONNEL ISSUES for details of the action taken.)

Health and Community Services Department (HCSD) — Present: John Manning, HCSD Director; Barbara LaBrash, Human Services Coordinator; and Janice Pepin, Administrator of San Juan Recovery.

Agenda:

(1) San Juan Recovery Performance Report — Mr. Manning introduced Ms. Pepin who presented an overview of the services provided by her agency in SJC. Statistically one in twenty people requesting services for treatment are approved in the state of WA. She thanked the BOCC for their continued support and noted that much of what is accomplished in recovery programs is invisible.

Almost all patients referred to her facility are by Court Order and treatment is guided by the WACs. She explained that nationally, one out of 35 patients become sober upon completion of treatment; and two out of twelve persons who attend treatment stay alive after five years. An accurate picture of addiction is nearly impossible to quantify.

Many aspects of the services provided were discussed at length and it was noted that in SJC the sense of community and local support has greatly enhanced the care and treatment and ultimate success rate of patients. The Board asked for Ms. Pepin’s thoughts on what could be done to improve the current treatment provided. Ms. Pepin stated that two additional employees would be of great assistance; however, her ultimate goal would be to have an in-patient facility for adults and juveniles where treatment could be provided for a period of 21-30 days with a physician on staff.

Commissioner Evans noted that there is a program on Orcas Island, which deals with prevention and asked if she had any ideas to make that and other programs more effective. Ms. Pepin explained many aspects of the relationship of mental health and addiction. Commissioner Miller added some of the information she has learned working closely with several agencies involved in this critical area.

The Board thanked Ms. Pepin for her dedication and efforts.

(2) Review of a Draft Resolution Dedicating the Funds Derived for the Sale or Exchange of the Mental Health and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities to be Used Exclusively for a Replacement Facility — Mr. Manning explained that this draft was not approved by the Prosecuting Attorney and had been written in draft format for review and suggestions from the BOCC.

Previously the BOCC/Board of Health had verbally committed any funds derived from the sale of two County owned properties housing these two facilities toward a new facility on August 5 of this year. Several changes were recommended along with a request to investigate information previously researched by Tom Huse, former Public Works Director, regarding the use of existing funds for new facilities. Mr. Manning explained that in order to apply for grant funding through the state, there needed to be a formal resolution as part of the application package.

Commissioner Evans requested waiting on this resolution until it is known where a new facility may be located and if an existing site could be used for both the mental health and alcohol and drug abuse centers. However, due to time constraints in submitting grant applications, it was agreed that Mr. Manning would make the changes recommended and research the requested information and present a new resolution for consideration when completed.

Public Works Department (PW) — Present: Jon Shannon, PW Director; Gerald Rasmussen, County Engineer; Louis Haff, Special Project Consultant; and Janice Flagan, Civil Engineer II.

Agenda:

(1) Review of Bailer Hill Road and Other Safety Areas — Commissioner Nielsen noted that Joanruth Baumann, Public Works Project Manager, had corresponded with her regarding bicycle paths and related issues and wanted this addressed.

Mr. Rasmussen handed out a revised draft of a “Non-Motorized Transportation Policy and Guidelines for SJC.” He stated that this has been a work in progress for the past two years. Several aspects of this type of plan were addressed including additional road shoulder space, right-of-way issues, issues of safety, funding priorities, and traffic statistics. Mr. Rasmussen also noted that the Six-Year Transportation Program will be heard in a public hearing next week and this subject will be part of the issues before the BOCC for consideration.

After a lengthy discussion, the Board agreed that additional time will be needed to address this topic and to identify priority sites that require safety improvements. No action was taken at this time.

RECESS — At 3:58 p.m., BOCC Chair Miller recessed the meeting until 10:30 a.m., Wednesday, October 8, 2003.

Wednesday, October 8, 2003 — Vault Room — First Floor Courthouse
