9. DISCUSSION ITEMS (No Action to be Taken)
A. Transportation Funding (Time Stamp: 0:36:58 Part 2)
Mayor Putaansuu said at our last City Council meeting, we talked about the community survey results
and how traffic is the highest priority. We wanted to look at the scope for potential ballot measures,
so Community Development Director Bond provided a detailed proposal on all the things the City
could possibly do. As we were looking into this, and with the knowledge of the additional ten -years
the legislature authorized, we were unaware of the ability of the 1/101" sales tax Councilmanic
measure that became available last session.
He provided a scenario of Council passing the 1/101" measure for ten -years for funding Bethel Phase
1. The process would be to pass the 1/10t" and use the first three -years for design and right-of-way
services. Once the right-of-way is acquired and the design is completed, we will have better numbers
to know how much this will cost us.
Additional discussion was held regarding revenue and funding, ballot measure, continuing discussion
at the Transportation Committee meeting and next work study meeting, public hearings, and 3/10th
option.
Council Direction: Mayor Putaansuu will create a flowchart of the scenario funding and report back
to Council during the July work study meeting [July 19tn]

before subjected to an evaluation by a committee of the Council. For remote attendance, Council is
only permitted at the Mayors, or Mayor Pro-Tem's authorization in the event that specific criteria is
met.
Additional discussion was held regarding remote attendance and hybrid approach to meetings, how
other agencies are conducting their meetings, committee meetings, possible audio issues when
attending remotely, making changes to the current policy, and advantages of meeting in -person.

County and is receiving periodic updates and actions the County is continuing to take.
