Agenda Staff Report
Agenda Item No.: Business Item 7B Meeting Date:
September 22, 2020
Subject: Adoption of an Ordinance Adopting the Prepared by: Nick Bond, AICP
Ruby Creek Neighborhood Subarea Plan DCD Director
Atty Routing No.: Development-Matter 11
Atty Review Date: August 17, 2020
Summary: At the City Council’s September 8, 2020 meeting, the Council reviewed the draft Ruby Creek
Neighborhood Subarea Plan and development regulations and directed staff to bring the Plan and
regulations to the September 22 Council meeting for adoption. The Subarea Plan will be adopted as
Appendix C of the City’s Comprehensive Plan. The City’s Zoning Map has been updated to reflect zoning
changes to certain parcels in the Ruby Creek subarea, and the development regulations to be incorporated
into Chapters 20.31, 20.38 and 20.127 POMC will provide the code authority for implementing the Subarea
Plan.
The Subarea Plan was reviewed by the Land Use committee on July 6, 2020, which recommended that the
Plan be forwarded to the full City Council for review and approval. The Planning Commission reviewed the
draft Subarea Plan at its June, August and September 2020 meetings, and held a public hearing on the plan
and development regulations at its August and September meetings. On September 1, 2020, after
considering public testimony and comments, the Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend
approval of the Subarea Plan, with additional goal and policy language in the Transportation section
regarding pedestrian and bicycle safety in the vicinity of Sidney Glen Elementary School.
Background: In 2016, the City of Port Orchard completed its periodic update to the Comprehensive Plan.
The 2016 Plan included for the first time, a “centers” (subarea planning) approach to the City’s major
residential and commercial areas as provided in Vision 2040 (now Vision 2050), the regional plan completed
by the Puget Sound Regional Council, and in the Countywide Planning Policies adopted by all jurisdictions in
Kitsap County. In 2016, Port Orchard identified center locations, but did not have the resources to complete
subarea plans at that time, and instead identified goals for subarea planning to be completed in the future.
The draft Ruby Creek Neighborhood Subarea Plan is a result of that goal.
In late 2019, Port Orchard set out to complete a subarea plan for the area located near the intersection of
Sidney Road SW and SW Sedgwick Road, which had been known as the “Sidney/Sedgwick Center”. The new
name “Ruby Creek Neighborhood Center” was selected to highlight this significant environmental feature
located in the neighborhood. The Ruby Creek Neighborhood is located near the intersection of Sidney Road
SW and SW Sedgwick Road. Its boundaries are generally SR-16/Blackjack Creek to the east, Birch Road to
the north, the City limits to the south, and a critical area complex to the west. The Ruby Creek
Neighborhood measures 166.45 acres in land area. Of these 165.45 acres, critical areas (including wetlands
and flood plains) associated with Blackjack Creek and Ruby Creek occupy approximately 52 acres, leaving
approximately 70 acres of developed land and 45 acres of vacant or underutilized land. The center is
primarily designated as Commercial on the Comprehensive Plan land use map and contains commercial
Page 21 of 192
Staff Report 7B
Page 2 of 2
heavy (CH), Commercial Corridor (CC), Commercial Mixed Use (CMU), Downtown Mixed Use (DMU), and
Greenbelt (GB) zones. Currently, the neighborhood contains 464 residents in 232 apartments and 8
houses, and 371 jobs in approximately 213,638 existing square feet of commercial space.
The City considered three alternative designs for the future Ruby Creek Neighborhood Center with the help
of a consultant, and ultimately settled on a preferred alternative that preserves the existing mixed use feel
of the Sidney Road SW corridor, while allowing for flexibility in areas further to the east along Sidney Road
SW. This flexibility means that under the plan framework, either apartments, commercial uses, mixed uses,
or a park and ride facility would be permissible in areas that are located in the neighborhood core but off
the Sidney Road SW “Main Street”.
Under the preferred alternative, the Ruby Creek Neighborhood is proposed to be a thriving and attractive
walkable neighborhood with easy access to goods and services, a variety of housing types, and convenient
access to employment via Kitsap Transit and its proximity to SR-16 and SR-160. Although the neighborhood
will have three main areas for planning purposes - the core in the center of the neighborhood, the north
end (north of Ruby Creek), and the Sidney/Sedgwick crossroads (south end) – the entire neighborhood is
intended to function as a whole. Residents will be able to walk and bicycle to the neighborhood grocery
store, restaurants, and businesses providing other goods and services, as well as to Sidney Glen Elementary
School and Cedar Heights Middle School.
The Ruby Creek Subarea Plan includes the current and proposed status of the Ruby Creek neighborhood,
the proposed zoning and regulatory requirements for the subarea plan, and designs illustrating how a built-
out Ruby Creek Neighborhood Center would look and function. The Ruby Creek central business district
will consist of walkable shopfronts along Sidney Ave SW. Natural environmental features and park and
recreation amenities along Ruby Creek and Blackjack Creek, along with this central business district, will
form the heart of the neighborhood. At buildout, it is estimated that the neighborhood will contain
approximately 1,800 residents and 652 jobs, exceeding the minimum residential and employment
thresholds set by the PSRC for a countywide center.
Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council approve an ordinance adopting the Ruby Creek
Neighborhood Subarea Plan as Appendix C of the City’s Comprehensive Plan, and adopting corresponding
amendments to the City’s Zoning Map and to Chapters 20.31, 20.38 and 20.127 POMC.
Relationship to Comprehensive Plan: The Ruby Creek Subarea Plan is proposed to be adopted as Appendix
C of the Comprehensive Plan. RCW 36.70A.130(2)(a)(i) allows the initial adoption of a subarea plan into the
Comprehensive Plan outside of the annual amendment process, if the plan clarifies, supplements or
implements jurisdiction-wide comprehensive plan policies.
Motion for Consideration: “I move to adopt an ordinance adopting the Ruby Creek Neighborhood Subarea
Plan as Appendix C of the City’s Comprehensive Plan, and adopting corresponding amendments to the
City’s Zoning Map and to Chapters 20.31, 20.38 and 20.127 POMC.”
Fiscal Impact: N/A
Alternatives: Direct staff to revise the draft Plan; do not adopt the Plan.

Chapter 1. Introduction.
In 2016, the City of Port Orchard completed its periodic update to the Comprehensive Plan. This 2016
Plan included for the first time, a “centers” approach to planning (See section 2.7 of the Port Orchard
Comprehensive Plan). The centers approach to planning is provided in Vision 2050, the regional plan
completed by the Puget Sound Regional Council, and in the Countywide Planning Policies adopted by all
jurisdictions in Kitsap County. In 2016, Port Orchard identified center locations, but did not have the
resources to complete subarea plans at that time, and instead identified goals for subarea planning to
be completed in the future. This plan is the result of that goal.
In late 2019, Port Orchard set out to complete a subarea plan for the area located near the intersection
of Sidney Road SW and SW Sedgwick Road. At the time that the planning work began, this
neighborhood did not have a name or much of an identity. The name “Ruby Creek Neighborhood” was
selected to highlight a significant environmental feature located in the neighborhood. Ruby Creek is a
major tributary to Blackjack Creek and has been the focus of significant habitat restoration projects just
outside of the City limits in Kitsap County. Highlighting the name of this stream in the neighborhood
name will have the effect of raising awareness of this sensitive environmental feature, and was chosen
as a way of ensuring that future residents, businesses, and developers are conscious of their
surroundings and can be good stewards of the environment.
This plan was also developed during the unprecedented challenges presented by the coronavirus
pandemic. Public outreach was initiated in the weeks before large parts of the nation were closed to
prevent the spread of the virus, including Kitsap County and Port Orchard. This resulted in the
cancellation of the City’s plans to conduct in person workshops with neighborhood residents and
property owners. The City has instead relied on online surveys and public hearings before the Planning
Commission that were held remotely.
The City hired a consultant to help explore design alternatives for the subarea. Due to the critical area
constraints found in the neighborhood, these alternatives contained only small differences. The main
variable considered in the subarea plan was whether to locate a Kitsap Transit park and ride facility
within the neighborhood. This variable was prompted by a parallel study being conducted by
consultants hired by Kitsap Transit to identify possible sites for park and ride facilities in the South Kitsap
area. The alternatives considered are as follows:
1. Concept 1: Mixed use neighborhood with no park and ride facility.
2. Concept 2: Mixed use neighborhood with park and ride facility on the east side of Sidney.
3. Concept 3: Mixed use neighborhood with park and ride facility on the west side of Sidney.
Ultimately, the Kitsap Transit study eliminated Concept 3 early in their analysis due to critical area and
space constraints. The preferred alternative selected here was a hybrid between Concepts 1 and 2. The
preferred alternative preserved the mixed use feel of the Sidney Road SW corridor while allowing for
flexibility in areas further to the east along Sidney Road SW. This flexibility meant that under the plan
framework, either apartments, commercial uses, mixed uses, or a park and ride facility would be
permissible in areas located in the neighborhood core but off the Sidney Road SW “Main Street”.

Chapter 2. Vision and Preferred Alternative.
2.1 Vision. The Ruby Creek Neighborhood is a thriving and attractive walkable neighborhood with easy
access to goods and services, a variety of housing types, and convenient access to employment via
Kitsap Transit and its proximity to SR-16 and SR-160. Residents can walk to the neighborhood grocery
store, restaurants, and businesses providing other goods and services, as well as to Sidney Glen
Elementary School and Cedar Heights Middle School. The Ruby Creek central business district consists
of walkable shopfronts along Sidney Ave SW. Natural environmental features and park and recreation
amenities along Ruby Creek and Blackjack Creek along with this central business district form the heart
of the neighborhood. Bicycle paths run through the neighborhood and connect to other areas of the
City.
2.2 Preferred Alternative. The preferred alternative requires the development of storefronts along
Sidney Road SW but allows the development of a Kitsap Transit park and ride to the east of the
neighborhood core in lieu of apartments or commercial development. A park and ride concept is shown
in Figure 4. This park and ride facility would reduce the population capacity for the neighborhood
slightly, but would help drive economic activity in the neighborhood at certain times of the day, would
reduce the traffic impacts resulting from plan implementation, and would provide for the sharing of
parking facilities for the proposed public park and for residential units which would likely have peak
parking demands (nights and weekends) which differ from those of commuters (weekdays). In the
following sections of the plan, the subarea is broken into 3 parts for discussion: the neighborhood core
in the center of the neighborhood, the north end (north of Ruby Creek), and the Sidney/Sedgwick
crossroads (south end).

2.3 Neighborhood Core. The preferred alternative seeks to develop a new neighborhood core along
Sidney Road SW. The center of the neighborhood is located approximately halfway between Ruby Creek
and SW Sedgwick Road, and is marked by a new intersection that provides access to properties on the
east and west of Sidney Road SW. The buildings near this intersection consist of single-story shopfront
and mixed-use shopfront building types, with storefronts that face Sidney Road SW. Off-street parking
and secondary access to ground floor shopfronts is provided to the rear of these buildings, out of sight
from Sidney Road SW. Sidney Road SW is characterized by wide pedestrian oriented sidewalks, street
trees and on-street parking. The center of the neighborhood has a small-town downtown feel. To the
west of this new intersection, access is provided to new commercial and/or residential development. To
the east of this development, flexibility is provided to allow either commercial and/or residential
development, or a park and ride facility. The center of the neighborhood is also anchored by a new
public park that has helped to enhance the natural amenities provided by Blackjack and Ruby Creeks.
This new park has provided restoration of habitat, informational and educational opportunities, and
opportunities for low impact recreation.

Mixed Use (DMU) zoned development pads along Sidney to ensure storefront development.

and ride facility located to the east of the Sidney Road SW storefronts.

2.4 North End. To the north of the neighborhood core is a residential area characterized by landscaping
along the street, sidewalks, bicycle lanes, landscape islands in the street, and street trees. Although
mixed use commercial development is permitted along this section of Sidney Road SW, it is seen as less
viable due to the distance from SW Sedgwick Road and because it is separated from the commercial
neighborhood core by Ruby Creek and its large protective buffers. Apartment development is
permissible and anticipated in these locations. Sidewalks and bicycle lanes now connect this
neighborhood to the Sidney Glen Elementary School, the Little League baseball fields, and places of
worship located to the north of the neighborhood, as well as to the commercial core to the south which
includes the neighborhood’s main grocery store. These new residents can utilize transit service in the
corridor for access to jobs throughout the region. Walking paths along Ruby Creek allow for recreation
and access to a new city park.

Figure 6: North End Site Plan Illustration.
2.5 Sidney/Sedgwick Crossroads. The area near the crossroads of SW Sedgwick Road and Sidney Road
SW is already characterized by significant development. There is a large grocery store, two gas stations,
restaurants, shopping, and apartments in this area. One vacant development pad remains at this
intersection. At this location, the City seeks the development of mixed-use shopfront buildings, or live
work ground floor units in an apartment building, to help make the area feel more urban. Parking for
this pad is provided behind these buildings and out of view of the intersection. In addition, the project
has provided public amenity spaces near the prominent street corner at this intersection. Other
properties in the neighborhood may eventually develop, but redevelopment is not expected in the near
term.

2.6 Centers. Countywide Center – PSRC Criteria
The Ruby Creek Neighborhood Center is planned as a Countywide Center as described in the Puget
Sound Regional Council Regional Centers Framework. As a designated Countywide Center, the Ruby
Creek Neighborhood:
1. Is a local priority for investment. This plan includes transportation, water, sewer, stormwater,
electrical, and park projects to support center development.
2. Is planned for more than 10 activity units (jobs + housing units) per acre. The center is planned
to include 14.82 activity units per acre.
3. Is planned for a mix of residential and employment uses. The center is planned to consist of
73% residential and 27% commercial at full buildout.
4. Has capacity for additional growth. The center has capacity for an estimated 1,352 additional
persons and 281 additional jobs at full build out.
5. The center supports multimodal transportation (including pedestrians, bicycles, transit, and
automobiles).
Chapter 3. Land Use
3.1 Introduction. The Ruby Creek Neighborhood is located near the intersection of Sidney Road SW and
SW Sedgwick Road. Its boundaries are generally SR-16/Blackjack Creek to the east, Birch Road to the
north, the City limits to the south, and a critical area complex to the west. The center is primarily
designated as Commercial on the Comprehensive Plan land use map and contains commercial heavy
(CH), Commercial Corridor (CC), Commercial Mixed Use (CMU), Downtown Mixed Use (DMU), and
Greenbelt (GB) zones. The area is also subject to overlay district regulations which aim to implement
the preferred alternative as depicted in the maps and figures in Chapter 2.
Figure 9: The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Designations for the Ruby Creek Center.
Page 42 of 192
10
Figure 10: The Zoning Designations for the Ruby Creek Center.
As of the writing of this plan, there is an abundance of vacant and underutilized land within the center.
Vacant and underutilized parcels are either zoned DMU, CMU or CC, depending on whether apartments
are permitted outright in the absence of a commercial component within future buildings, and
depending on the percentage of lot frontage along Sidney Road SW intended to be storefronts. The
CMU zone allows apartments as a building type under POMC 20.32, whereas the CC and DMU zones do
not. It is anticipated that large areas of the CMU zone will develop as apartments; however, commercial
retail type uses are allowed and if constructed would be most likely to locate along the Sidney Road SW
street frontage. The CC and DMU properties are intended for a “main street” development pattern, and
have strict build-to-zone requirements to ensure that the Sidney Road SW corridor is developed with
storefronts that are located close to the street. The DMU zone requires a higher percentage of the
Sidney Road frontage to contain buildings, as compared to the CC zone. The GB zone is only applied
along the streams, dedicated open space, and areas encumbered by flood plains.
3.2 Ruby Creek Center Land Area and Development Potential. The Ruby Creek Neighborhood measures
166.45 acres in land area. Of these 165.45 acres, critical areas (including wetlands and flood plains)
associated with Blackjack Creek and Ruby Creek occupy approximately 52 acres, leaving approximately
70 acres of developed land and 45 acres of vacant or underutilized land.
Page 43 of 192
11
Figure 11: Infill Potential Map.
To further illustrate development potential in the Ruby Creek Neighborhood, the map below (Figure 12)
has combined potential critical areas and zoning to illustrate how much land area is available for
redevelopment. The vacant and underutilized parcels have been assigned letter designations based on
current ownership groupings. Later in this plan, these letters as shown on this map will help to show the
land capacity within the center for both employment and population. This map is not based on site
visits or a critical areas delineation, and reporting and actual development potential may be more or less
than what is shown here. In addition, the City’s critical areas code can allow buffer reductions through a
variance, provided that these reductions are mitigated. Likewise, flood plain development requires
flood elevation certificates to be prepared by a surveyor to certify that buildings are elevated to reduce
flooding risk. The true development potential for any of these sites cannot be determined without
preparing a critical areas report that meets the standards of the Port Orchard Municipal Code.

3.3 Population and Employment.
As of June 24, 2020, the Ruby Creek Neighborhood contained 464 residents and 371 jobs. This equates
to 5 activity units per acre under the PSRC Regional Centers Framework. Current population is
accommodated in 232 existing apartments and 8 existing houses within the center. Current
employment is provided in approximately 213,638 existing square feet of commercial space. The plan
envisions adding 647 additional housing units and 100,400 additional square feet of commercial space.
The expected future level of activity units equates to 14.82 activity units per acre, above the PSRC
threshold of 10 activity units per acre.
(1,816 persons + 652 jobs) / 166.45 acres = 14.82 activity units per acre
Ruby Creek Center Population and Employment Capacity: With approximately 45 acres of vacant and
underutilized, and unencumbered (critical area free) land remaining in the neighborhood, it is estimated
that the total population and employment capacity in the center is 1,816 persons and 652 jobs. Actual
growth will vary depending on a variety of factors, including whether the DMU and CC zones develop
with single story shopfront buildings vs. mixed-use shop front buildings, and whether a park and ride
facility occupies some of the land within the center.

3.4 Land Use Goals for the Ruby Creek Neighborhood Center (these goals are in addition to existing
goals found in other sections of the Comprehensive Plan):
Goal LU-1: Accommodate enough residential development in the Ruby Creek Countywide Center to
ensure a thriving business district.
Policy LU-1: Allowed uses, building types, and height limits should accommodate at least 1,800
residents in the Ruby Creek Countywide Center.
Goal LU-2: Encourage the development of a Ruby Creek Central Business District along Sidney Ave SW,
between SW Sedgwick Road and the Ruby Creek stream buffer.
Policy LU-2: Provide storefront uses on the ground floor in the form of a “Main Street” along
Sidney Ave SW, between SW Sedgwick Road and Ruby Creek. Regulations for the Ruby Creek
District shall ensure that buildings line the street without landscape setbacks and with
pedestrian entrances oriented towards the street as shown in Figure 13 below:
Page 46 of 192
14
Figure 13: Block Frontage Map for Ruby Creek Neighborhood (Core and South End).
Policy LU-3 Require a build-to-zone along the storefront area shown in Figure 13 in accordance
with the DMU and CC zoning designations as shown on the Zoning Map (Figure 10), but provide
exceptions for public plazas between buildings and at significant street corners.
Goal LU-3: Provide opportunities to extend the Ruby Creek “Main Street” feel between Ruby Creek and
Hovde Road.
Policy LU-4: Provide greater flexibility in building types and land uses between Ruby Creek and
Hovde Road using a commercial mixed-use zone and varied block frontage as shown on Figures
10 and 14.
Figure 14: Block Frontage Map North End.
Goal LU-4: Ensure that development in the Ruby Creek Neighborhood is attractive and provides variety
and visual interest.
Page 47 of 192
15
Policy LU-5: Designate high visibility street corners as defined in the City’s design guidelines in
strategic locations along the Sidney Road SW corridor and establish requirements in these
locations to accentuate building or plaza design with special design features.
Policy LU-6: Require façade articulation when any proposed building exceeds 120 feet in length
in the center.
Policy LU-7: Ensure that there is at least 60% facade transparency on the ground floor of single-
story shopfront and mixed-use shopfront buildings with a Sidney Road SW facing facade.
Goal LU-5: Allow for the development of a park and ride transit facility within the center, provided that
it be located at least 120 feet from the planned Sidney Road SW right of way (additional ROW needed
for the Sidney Road SW project) and located behind future development sites as viewed from Sidney
Road SW. See Figure 3.
Policy LU-8: Ensure that park and ride facilities are a permitted or conditional use in the CMU
zone within the Ruby Creek Center.
Chapter 4. Housing.
4.1 Introduction. Existing housing in the Ruby Creek Neighborhood consists of two large existing
apartment complexes built around 2013, and a handful of small farmstead type homes which are mostly
vacant pending redevelopment. There are 232 apartment units and 8 houses in the Ruby Creek Center
as of the writing of this plan. Dwelling units in the center contain about 1.9 residents per household
(PSRC analysis). According to the Washington State Office of Financial Management, multifamily
projects containing 5 or more units in Port Orchard contain on average 2.09 persons per household,
whereas detached houses contain 2.68 persons per household. No other housing types currently exist
in the center. There is a large single-family neighborhood (Stetson Heights) under development to the
west of the Ruby Creek Center, containing 299 single-family residential lots with future phases planned.
This project is eventually projected to contain 450 to 600 housing units. It is expected that residents of
this neighborhood will regularly visit this center seeking goods and services. These single-family areas
should be considered part of the neighborhood walkshed even if they are located outside of the center
boundaries. There also exists rural large lot development just beyond the City boundary to the
northwest and south. A population of a few hundred County residents could also be characterized as
being part of this new neighborhood although rural roads make pedestrian access to the center difficult.
4.2 Ruby Creek Center Planned Housing. For planning purposes, most future housing expected within
the subarea would occur in the CMU zone. This plan encourages development of mixed-use shopfront
buildings in the DMU and CC zones which could contain a significant number of housing units.
Estimated housing development is provided in Table 2 below, based on parcel characteristics as shown
in Figure 12 in Section 3.2. The housing unit and population shown in table 2 is only an estimate and
actual development yields may vary.

4.3 Goals and Policies. (Additional goals and policies beyond those already in the Comprehensive Plan)
Goal H-1: Provide for a mix of housing types including but not limited to apartments (apartment
buildings or apartments in a mixed-use shopfront building), townhomes, and live-work units.
Policy H-1: Ensure that the development regulations allow the development of the building
types described in Goal H-1 in the center, pursuant to the Zoning Map in Figure 10.
Goal H-2: Provide housing serving a mix of income levels that may be owner occupied or rental housing.
Policy H-2: Offer 12-year multifamily tax exemptions throughout the center in support of
affordable housing.
Chapter 5 Economic Development.
5.1 Introduction. The Ruby Creek Neighborhood Center currently contains a variety of businesses,
goods, and services. The center is currently anchored by a 60,000+ square foot grocery store. A small
strip mall, medical complex, and two gas stations also provide goods and services near the intersection
of Sidney Road SW and SW Sedgwick Road. Non-residential square footage in the center is currently
213,638 square feet and supports 371 existing jobs. This figure includes an elementary school and a
church. That equals 1 job per 575 square feet of nonresidential space in the center. The assumption for
new commercial square footage in the center is 1 job per 300 square feet, as the expected uses would
be retail, restaurant, and bars, which have a higher number of jobs per square foot of space compared
to the existing uses in the center.
The Ruby Creek Center plan envisions the establishment of a new central business district along Sidney
Road SW between the existing development at the intersection with SW Sedgwick Road and Ruby Creek.
This new central business district is intended to take the form of a “Main Street” with shopfronts on the
ground floor abutting yet to be constructed sidewalks. Parking is to be provided on-street along Sidney
Road with supplemental parking behind or below these shop fronts, or as on-street parking on new yet
to be developed public and/or private streets. It is critical to the success of a new business district to
ensure that there are a sufficient number of dwellings within walking distance to support these
businesses. This will lower parking demands and increase activity in the area. The minimum residential
threshold for the Ruby Creek Neighborhood Center should be 1,800 residents within walking distance
(1/2 mile) of the central business district. Nonmotorized improvements, transit, on- and off-street
parking, gathering spaces, and an active streetscape will all contribute to a vibrant business district.
5.2 Ruby Creek Center Planned Employment. For planning purposes, most future employment expected
within the sub area would occur in the CC, CH, and DMU zones. Some employment is expected in the
CMU zones, but this is expected to be limited to jobs that support the leasing, recreation, and
maintenance of multifamily housing. Expected employment per 1,000 square feet of future commercial
square footage is shown in Table 3 below. The letters in the property group column correspond to the
map (Figure 12) in section 3.2. The employment estimates shown in Table 3 below is only an estimate
and actual development yields may vary.

5.3 Goals and Policies.
Goal ED-1: Provide zoning for ground floor shopfront development and retail, service, restaurant, and
other compatible uses along Sidney Road SW.
Policy ED-1. Require ground floor shopfront development along Sidney Road SW from SW
Sedgwick Road north to Ruby Creek, through either single-story shopfront or mixed-use
shopfront building types.
Policy ED-2. Allow ground floor shopfront development along Sidney Road SW and SW
Sedgwick Road.
Policy ED-3. Allow residential uses above shopfront development where shopfront
development is required.
Page 51 of 192
19
Policy ED-4: Encourage mixed-use shopfronts on CC zoned properties by offering multifamily tax
exemptions for the multifamily portion of the project.
Goal ED-2: Ensure that uses which are not compatible with building a walkable neighborhood center are
prohibited.
Policy ED-5. Prohibit additional drive through businesses, gas stations, storage facilities, or
other commercial uses that don’t contribute to a walkable neighborhood center.
Chapter 6 Parks.
6.1 Introduction. It is critical to consider the availability of parks and recreational amenities when
planning countywide centers. Parks provide a gathering place for neighborhood residents, and
recreational facilities contribute to public health and provide connections within the neighborhood.
Within the existing apartment complexes in the Ruby Creek Center there are private park and recreation
facilities maintained by the apartment owners. This type of private open space is required for all
development per the design standards found in the City’s municipal code. No public parks currently
exist in the center, although there are school recreation facilities at Sidney Glen Elementary School
consisting of grass fields, covered basketball hoops, and playground equipment. There are also two Little
baseball fields on property located in the north end of the center along Sidney Ave SW, which is owned
by the Kitsap County Parks and Recreation Department and leased to the South Kitsap Western Little
League. The development of public parks and recreation facilities in the Ruby Creek Center is critical to
developing a successful neighborhood center.
The preferred alternative depicts a public park to be constructed to the southwest of the confluence of
Blackjack Creek and Ruby Creek. This proposed park plans to use pockets of developable land, critical
area buffers, and floodplain areas to provide recreational amenities. Amenities would include parking,
restrooms, playground equipment, walking paths along and over Ruby Creek via a pedestrian bridge,
and other public amenities. Due to the degraded nature of these critical areas and flood plains, and the
desire to provide public access (walking paths) along and across Ruby Creek, it is expected that critical
areas variances will be needed to allow for park construction. Any variance will require significant
habitat restoration and enhancement. All active recreation and parking areas will be constructed
outside of critical areas but walking paths and a pedestrian bridge would be constructed within these
buffers. Due to the significant opportunities to complete restoration work, it is expected that the park
would include a landscape that is adaptive to flooding and that significant education and interpretive
opportunities could occur in the park. For more information on this planned park, please see the City’s
Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan.
Goal P-1: Encourage the development of a public neighborhood park in the Ruby Creek Neighborhood.
Policy P-1: The neighborhood park should incorporate natural or environmental features.
Policy P-2: Provide walking paths along Ruby and/or Blackjack Creeks and (a) pedestrian
crossing(s).
Goal P-2: Encourage the development of public plazas and other gathering spaces along Sidney Road
SW.
Page 52 of 192
20
Policy P-3: Designate significant street corners on the block frontage standard maps as shown on
Figures 13 and 14 to encourage the development of public gathering spaces along the central
business district corridor.
Policy P4: Provide extra sidewalk width in the central business district as part of the Sidney Road
SW road section.
Goal P-3: Provide recreational paths and trails, public and private sidewalks, and public bike lanes and
paths within the center.
Policy P-5: Provide bicycle lanes on Sidney Road SW through the center.
Policy P-6: Ensure that sidewalks are constructed along all public and private roads within the
center.
Chapter 7 Natural Systems.
7.1 Introduction. The Ruby Creek Center and the lands adjacent to the center contain critically
important habitats, especially creeks and wetlands. Blackjack Creek runs along the eastern boundary of
the center. Ruby Creek, an important tributary to Blackjack Creek, flows through the center and crosses
under Sidney Road SW. This watershed is a critical habitat to a variety of species including summer and
fall Chum Salmon, Coho and Chinook Salmon, Steelhead, and Cutthroat. Of these species, Steelhead are
currently listed under the endangered species act. Fish barriers exist along both Blackjack and Ruby
Creek. WSDOT has plans to replace the partial barrier located under SR-16. The City is seeking grant
funding to replace the Ruby Creek culvert under Sidney Road SW. Sidney Road currently lacks
pedestrian improvements and will likely need to be widened. This widening will likely require some
mitigation for impacts to the Ruby Creek corridor which could occur in conjunction with the park project
described in Chapter 7. Although the Ruby Creek Center is planned as urban development, it is critical
to take a sensitive approach to design to ensure compatibility between new development and these
natural features.
Page 53 of 192
21
Figure 15: The City has developed preliminary culvert replacement plans for the Ruby Creek culvert
under Sidney Road SW and is seeking grant funding for this project.
7.2 Goals and Policies. (Additional Goals beyond those already in the Comprehensive Plan).
Goal NS-1: Encourage the protection of Ruby and Blackjack Creeks and provide educational and
interpretive opportunities to residents about the critical functions that these features serve.
Policy NS-1: Provide wildlife viewing areas and interpretive signage.
Policy NS-2: Ensure that wetland buffers and fish and wildlife habitat buffers are provided
consistent with critical areas regulations.
Policy NS-3: Ensure that minimum flood plain elevations are observed.
Goal NS-2: Ensure that all critical habitats, especially anadromous fish habitats in the Ruby Creek
Neighborhood, are protected, restored, and enhanced.
Policy NS-4: Seek opportunities to enhance and restore wetlands, streams, and buffers in the
Ruby Creek Neighborhood.
Policy NS-5: Provide for extensive use of low impact development in project and street design.
Policy NS-6: Remove City owned fish passage barriers within the subarea.
Goal NS-3: Allow for the development of low impact walking paths and trails along Ruby Creek and
Blackjack Creek to encourage protection, education, and stewardship.
Page 54 of 192
22
Policy NS-7: Permit walkway, trail, and pedestrian bridge construction, provided that habitat
mitigation is provided in accordance with the critical areas code.

Chapter 8 Utilities.
8.1 Introduction. The Ruby Creek Center is served by City water, sanitary sewer, and stormwater, Puget
Sound Energy (electric and gas), Comcast, Wave, Century Link, and KPUD (cable, phone, and/or
internet). Significant utility upgrades are required to support the development and buildout of the Ruby
Creek Center. Water source and storage, sewer lift station, force main, and gravity main improvements,
stormwater improvements, and extension of underground power, gas, and telecommunication
infrastructure are all necessary to support development.
Although the City’s water and sewer system plans will contain the most up to date information, several
projects are currently identified to support the level of development identified in this plan. Those
projects are listed in Table 5. Some of the projects listed in Table 5 have their locations indicated on
Figures 4, 6, or 8. Other projects may be located outside of the center boundary but are needed to
support center build out.

Chapter 10 Transportation.
10.1 Introduction. The Ruby Creek Center is established along the Sidney Road SW corridor near the
intersection of SW Sedgwick Road. Historically, Sidney Road SW was a primary north-south route
through Kitsap County connecting Purdy and Gig Harbor to the south with Port Orchard (Town of
Sidney). This road’s role was changed with the construction of SR-16. Access to SR-16 and SR-160 is
provided at an interchange to the southeast of the Center. Kitsap Transit provides transit service to the
center and is evaluating the possibility of a park and ride in or near the center. SR-160 provides access
to the Southworth Ferry Terminal, with ferry service continuing on to Vashon Island, West Seattle, and
Downtown Seattle via WSDOT and Kitsap Transit Ferries. As part of center development, improvements
are envisioned for both Sidney Road SW and SW Sedgwick Road along with other new public or private
roads.
Sidney Road SW is classified as a Minor Arterial. Pursuant to the City’s Public Works and Engineering
Standards, Sidney is planned to be improved as a complete street through the center. To achieve
Countywide Center requirements, the standard road section has been modified to ensure wider
Page 57 of 192
25
sidewalks, required bicycle lanes, and low impact development landscape treatments. The Sidney Road
section in the “main street” core of the center is designed to slow traffic, facilitating a safe walking and
shopping environment as well as street parking. The Sidney Road SW streetscape is a critical public
infrastructure facility required to transport this neighborhood into a Countywide Center. The Sidney
Road SW section drawings are shown in Figures 17, 18, and 19.
SW Sedgwick Road is classified as a Principal Arterial. Pursuant to the City’s public works and
engineering standards, SW Sedgwick Road is planned to be improved as a complete street that provides
access to the Ruby Creek neighborhood and allows significant throughput. This road is significantly
constrained due to critical areas between Sidney Road SW and SR-16, and experiences regular backups.
Widening this road may require some sacrifices such as sidewalks on one side of the roadway to ensure
that critical environments are protected. To the west of Sidney Road SW, a developer plans to install a
non-motorized pedestrian pathway along the north side of SW Sedgwick Road west to the city boundary
to provide access to a single-family residential development to the west of the Ruby Creek
Neighborhood.
Although the City will not be making improvements to the SR-16/SR 160 interchange, it is important
encourage the state to make improvements to this facility. Improved access to these state highways
from the Ruby Creek Center will be needed as the City grows.
Figure 17: Sidney Road SW – Storefront Road Section. This road section corresponds with the section
of Sidney Road SW designated as a storefront street in Figure 13.
Figure 18: Sidney Road SW. This road section would be used in the center to the north of the Ruby
Creek crossing.
Page 58 of 192
26
Figure 19: Sidney Road SW. Where Sidney Road SW crosses Ruby Creek, the road will narrow and
taper to the above standard. This will minimize impacts to Ruby Creek while providing for
nonmotorized connectivity. This section requires culvert replacement.
Goal T-1: Improve Sidney Road SW between SW Sedgwick Road and Hovde Road generally in accordance
with Figures 17, 18, and 19 above, with center medians generally placed in accordance with the site
plans in Figures 1, 4, 6, and 8.
Policy T-1: Provide pedestrian crossings across Sidney Road SW at regular intervals through the

1.0 Purpose of the Policy
This Policy establishes guidelines for employees when purchasing goods, equipment, supplies and materials,
public works projects, architecture, engineering, landscape architecture, surveying services, personal services,
purchased services and contracting for services. The procedures set forth in this manual are designed to assure
the citizens and elected officials that the City of Port Orchard is receiving maximum value for each tax and utility
dollar expended and ensure fiscal responsibility in the procurement process, while assuring compliance with
State, Federal, and City regulations and rules.
This policy is dated March 31, 2017 and supersedes all purchasing directives. All references to the Revised Code
of Washington (RCW), Federal Code, and/or City Ordinances, Resolutions, and personnel policies shall be
incorporated as part of this policy including all future amendments.
2.0 Definitions
"Architectural services" means services rendered by any person, other than a city employee, to perform
activities within the scope of the professional practice of architecture (RCW 18.08), professional practice of
engineering and land surveying (RCW 18.43), and/or professional practice of landscape architecture (RCW
18.96).
"Bid splitting" means breaking a public works project or purchase of equipment, materials, or supplies into
units. The city may not break a public works project into units to avoid compliance with bidding statutes.
RCW 35.23.352.
“Change order” means the authority to change the scope of service, time, and/or the amount of a contract.
"Contract" means a contract in writing for the execution of a fixed or determinable amount duly awarded
after advertisement and competitive bid, or a contract awarded under the small works roster process in RCW
39.04.155.
"Emergency" means unforeseen circumstances beyond the control of the municipality that either: (a) Present a real,
immediate threat to the proper performance of essential functions; or (b) will likely result in material loss or damage
to property, bodily injury, or loss of life if immediate action is not taken. RCW 39.04.280.
"Formal competitive bid" is the process of advertising and receiving sealed written bids from prospective
vendors. The lowest responsible bidder is selected and awarded the contract. This is for largest and most complex
contracts and purchases that reach the defined amounts.
"Informal competition" is the process of using the small public works roster or vendor list. This is for medium
sized purchases and contracts up to a certain amount.
"Interlocal agreement" is an agreement in which the city exercises its governmental powers in a joint or
cooperative undertaking with another public agency.
"Landscape architecture," as defined in RCW 18.96.030, means the rendering of professional services in

Page 69 of 192
City of Port Orchard Page 5 of 22 Procurement Policies & Procedures
preservation, enhancement, or determination of proper land uses, natural land features, ground cover and
planting, naturalistic and aesthetic values, the settings and approaches to structures or other improvements, or
natural drainage and erosion control. This practice includes the location, design, and arrangement of such
tangible objects as pools, walls, steps, trellises, canopies, and such features as are incidental and necessary to
the purposes in this chapter. Landscape architecture involves the design and arrangement of land forms and the
development of outdoor space including, but not limited to, the design of public parks, trails, playgrounds,
cemeteries, home and school grounds, and the development of industrial and recreational sites.
“Minimal Competition” means there is no requirement to seek multiple quotes below the established threshold,
and competitive bidding is not required. Price quotes may be obtained from vendors that are obtained using a
variety of mediums such as phone, fax, e-mail, or writing. If the department seeks quotes, the results should be
documented. This is typically used for small contracts and purchases to a certain amount.
“Ordinary maintenance" is work not performed by contract and that is performed on a regularly scheduled basis
(e.g. daily, weekly, seasonally, semiannually, but not less frequently than once per year), to service, check or
replace items that are not broken; or work not performed by contract that is not regularly scheduled but is
required to maintain the asset so that repair does not become necessary.
“Personal Services” are services that involve technical expertise provided by a consultant to accomplish a specific
study, project, task, or other work statement, not including architecture and engineering. Examples include
Graphic Design, Advertising, Consulting, Attorneys and Real Estate Services.
“Piggybacking” means the use of other governmental agencies’ purchasing contracts without going out for a
formal competitive bid, as the other agency has already done it.
"Practice of architecture," as defined in RCW 18.08.320, means the rendering of services in connection with the
art and science of building design for construction of any structure or grouping of structures and the use of space
within and surrounding the structures or the design for construction of alterations or additions to the structures,

of construction contract documents, and administration of the construction contract.

procurements. The officer ensures that the department secures the best products and services within the bid
specifications consistent with City policy, federal regulations and state statute.
"Professional engineer," as defined in RCW 18.43.020, means a person who, by reason of his or her special
knowledge of the mathematical and physical sciences and the principles and methods of engineering analysis
and design, acquired by professional education and practical experience, is qualified to practice engineering as
defined in this section, as attested by his or her legal registration as a professional engineer.
“Professional land surveyor," as defined in RCW 18.43.020, means a person who, by reason of his or her special
knowledge of the mathematical and physical sciences and principles and practices of land surveying, which is acquired
by professional education and practical experience, is qualified to practice land surveying and as attested to by his or
her legal registration as a professional land surveyor.
"Public work," as defined in RCW 39.04.010, means all work, construction, alteration, repair, or improvement
other than ordinary maintenance executed at the cost of the city or which is by law a lien or charge on any
city property. Public works projects include the related materials, supplies, and equipment to complete the
project.
Page 70 of 192
City of Port Orchard Page 6 of 22 Procurement Policies & Procedures
“Purchased Service” is a service provided by vendors for routine, necessary, and continuing functions of a
local agency, mostly related to physical work.
"Purchase Order" is a document which authorizes the delivery of specified merchandise or the rendering of
certain services and the marking of a charge for them. The City of Port Orchard is guaranteeing payment
when a purchase order is provided to a vendor.
“Purchasing Agent” as designated in Resolution No. 1086 means the City Clerk who is authorized to execute
requests for performance bonds, vouchers involving disbursement of funds, routine purchase orders, and
routine correspondence on behalf of the City.
"Request for Proposal (RFP)" means a process that requests interested firms to submit a statement of their
proposal for completing a project. Proposals are evaluated based upon the suitability, practicality, quality
of the proposal and experience and cost.
"Small Works Roster" is a roster of qualified contractors who can bid for an eligible project below $300,000.
RCW 39.04.155 establishes the requirements for small works roster contracts.
"Sole Source Supplier" occurs when competition among potential vendors is not possible for a particular
procurement. If a purchase is clearly and legitimately limited to a single supplier, sole source procurement is
appropriate. These situations often arise when an agency has specific technological requirements.
3.0 General Provisions
Budget Sufficiency
Each Department Director must ensure that purchases are initiated only when the departmental budget is sufficient
to cover the anticipated cost. Expenditures that exceed departmental appropriations require a budget amendment
approved by City Council. Requests for budget amendments must be submitted in writing, see Exhibit 1, and shall
be forwarded to the Mayor and City Treasurer prior to seeking approval from the City Council.
Financing
Consistent with Resolution No. 022-12 Finance Policies, the City may finance capital equipment, vehicles, land, or
infrastructure improvements. Financing recommendations shall be the responsibility of the Finance Director.

entering into any such arrangement.
Federal or State Funds
Procurement involving the expenditure of state or federal funds or grants, shall be conducted in accordance with the
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 2: Grants and Agreements §200.318. General procurement standards require
that the City must use its own documented procurement procedures which reflect applicable State, local, and tribal laws
and regulations, provided that the procurements conform to applicable Federal law and the standards outlined in
§200.318.
Breaking Down or Bid Splitting Purchases Prohibited
Purchases shall not be broken into multiple projects or purchases to avoid limitation requirements of State bidding
statutes or City policy.
Signature Authority
The Mayor or designee shall sign all contracts upon approval by the City Council, consistent with RCW 35A.12.100,
RCW 35A.12.190 and RCW 35A.11.020. .

Local businesses should be encouraged to submit bids on city procurements that are open to everybody. Consistent
with RCW 39.30.040, the City may award a contract to a bidder submitting the lowest bid after such tax revenue has
been considered.
Soliciting a Specific Brand
The City may advertise for bids by specifying a particular brand name item as long as the responsible official has
exercised their judgement and determined that a certain brand name is of higher quality or is better suited to the
City’s needs. There is no requirement that bid specifications naming a particular brand also include a phrase such as
“or an equal brand.”
Contracting and Purchasing Limitations
1. Purchases and contracts greater than $35,000, require Council authorization.
2. Purchase limitations apply to the cost of individual items or the sum of the same items purchased at the same
time to fulfill a specific business need, which are not part of a public works project as defined by RCW 39.04.010.

federal threshold of $150,000.
Small Works Bid Procedure
1. Invitations for Quotations.
Invitations for quotations shall include an estimate of the scope and nature of the work to be performed as well as
materials and equipment to be furnished. However, detailed plans and specifications need not be included in the
invitation. These requirements do not eliminate other requirements for architectural or engineering approvals as to
quality and compliance with building codes.

Quotations may be invited from all appropriate contractors on the appropriate small works roster. As an alternative,
quotations may be invited from at least five contractors on the appropriate small works roster who have indicated the
capability of performing the kind of work being contracted, in a manner that will equitably distribute the opportunity
among the contractors on the appropriate roster. However, if the estimated cost of the work is from one hundred
fifty thousand dollars ($150,000) to three hundred thousand dollars ($300350,000), a state agency or local
government that chooses to solicit bids from less than all the appropriate contractors on the appropriate small works
roster must also notify the remaining contractors on the appropriate small works roster that quotations on the work
are being sought pursuant to RCW 39.04.155 (2)(c)
3. Vendors/contractors selected from the Small Works Roster are not relieved from observing applicable legal
requirements such as those relating to Performance Bonds, Prevailing Wages, Labor and Material Bonding, etc.
4. Immediately after an award is made, the bid quotations obtained shall be recorded, open to public inspection, and
available by telephone inquiry.
5. As required by RCW 39.04.200, every even numbered month, the City must post a list of contracts awarded from
the small works roster over at least the previous two months. The list must contain the name of the contractor, the
amount of the contract, a brief description of the type of work performed, and the date of the award.
Limited Public Works Process (RCW 39.04.155(3))
For limited public work projects may award a contract for work, construction, alteration, repair, or improvement
projects with an estimated cost of $3550,000 or less, the city may use the limited public works process described
below in lieu of the small works process.
1. Invitations for Quotations.
Invitations for quotations shall include an estimate of the scope and nature of the work to be performed
as well as materials and equipment to be furnished. However, detailed plans and specifications need not
be included in the invitation. These requirements do not eliminate other requirements for architectural
or engineering approvals as to quality and compliance with building codes.
Page 75 of 192
City of Port Orchard Page 11 of 22 Procurement Policies & Procedures
2. Number of contractors invited.
Electronic or written quotations shall be solicited from a minimum of three contractors from the
appropriate small works roster and the city shall award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder
as defined under RCW 39.04.010.
3. Notification of Award.
After an award is made, the quotations shall be open to public inspection and available by electronic
request. The city shall maintain a list of the contractors contacted and the contracts awarded during the
previous twenty-four months under the limited public works process, including the name of the
contractor, the contractor's registration number, the amount of the contract, a brief description of the
type of work performed, and the date the contract was awarded.
4. Vendors/contractors selected using the Limited Public Works Process are required to comply with
prevailing wage and insurance requirements.

newspaper of general circulation most likely to bring responsive bids, at least thirteen days prior to the last date
upon which bids will be received.

6.0 Exemptions to Competitive Bidding
Section 39.04.280 RCW provides uniform exemptions to competitive bidding requirements utilized by municipalities
when awarding contracts for public works and contracts for purchases. Competitive bidding requirements may be
waived for:
Sole Source Purchases
Purchases that are clearly and legitimately limited to a single source of supply (Sole Source Vendor):
If, after conducting a good faith review of available resources, the requesting department director determines that
there is only one source of the required materials, supplies, or equipment, a purchase contract may be awarded
without complying with established bid requirements. The requesting department director must complete the Sole
Source Vendor Statement form, attached as Exhibit 4, and must be filed with the contract.
Purchases involving special facilities or market conditions
The Mayor may waive established bidding requirements if an opportunity arises to purchase favorably-priced
equipment at an auction, or supplies or used goods that will be sold before the City can conduct the bid process.
Purchases in the event of an emergency
If an emergency situation has been declared, the Mayor may waive competitive bidding requirements and the City
may award all necessary contracts to purchase goods, materials, or services to address the emergency situation.
Purchase order(s) must be properly documented as pertaining to an emergency as soon as possible following the
event. If a contract is awarded without competitive bidding due to a declared emergency, the City Council must
adopt a resolution certifying the emergency situation existed no later than two weeks following the award of the
contract.
Intergovernmental Purchases and Piggybacking
Page 77 of 192
City of Port Orchard Page 13 of 22 Procurement Policies & Procedures
The City may make purchases using another local, state, or federal agency’s purchasing contract, a process known
as “piggybacking”. The host city entity and the City of Port Orchard must follow the statutory contracting
requirements and post solicitations online, as outlined in RCW 39.34. In addition, City staff should use the
Purchases through Interlocal Agreements checklist, attached as Exhibit 5.
Telecommunication Systems/Services
The City may acquire electronic data processing or telecommunication equipment, software, or services through
competitive negotiation rather than through competitive bidding as outlined in RCW 39.04.270.
7.0 Change Orders
Upon recommendation of the department director, and demonstration that a Change Order is necessary and
reasonable, the department director is authorized to approve any and all Change Orders that do not exceed 10% of either
the legally authorized budget limit for the applicable project or either the contract amount established by the City Council, with
a maximum approval amount of $50,000. The Mayor is authorized to approve any and all Change Orders that do not exceed
either 10% of the legally authorized budget limit for the applicable project or either the contract amount established by the
City Council, with a maximum approval amount of $100,000. A completed Change Order form, attached as Exhibit 6, must
be filed with the contract.
Change Orders in Excess of City Council Authorized Budget Appropriations.
Upon recommendation of the department director, and demonstration that a Change Order is necessary, the
responsible department director shall submit to the City Council a Change Order Request to include the amount of
requested funds and a written justification describing why the additional funds are necessary and the benefits to be
derived. A request for budget amendment shall accompany the Change Order.
If the City Council approves the Change Order Request, the responsible department director shall take the necessary
actions to enact the Change Order and complete the work in an expeditious manner in accordance with the City
Council’s direction.
If the City Council denies the Change Order Request, the responsible department director shall report back to the
Mayor and City Council with options as to how to accomplish the project/contract within the funds allocated.
Consistent with RCW 39.04.280, in the event of an emergency or the need to take immediate or expeditious action
necessary to protect or maintain the public health, safety, or welfare; or to prevent damage to public or private
property, and with approval of the Mayor, department directors are authorized to enact Change Orders in excess of
the legally authorized expenditure level. The responsible department director shall timely report such actions to the
City Council.
8.0 Purchase Orders
The City Clerk is authorized to execute requests for routine purchase orders as stated in Resolution No. 1086. Routine
purchase orders are used to detail the terms of the purchase, including the items purchased, the price, delivery date,
and terms of payment. Purchase Orders are available to vendors and suppliers when there is an agreement to deliver
purchased items prior to payment, with the purchase order serving as a guarantee of future payment. Once a purchase
order is generated, an in-progress purchase is created. The order remains in progress until the ordered items have
been delivered and paid. Attached as Exhibit 7.

Washington State Prevailing Wage Law
CITY OF PORT ORCHARD
WASHINGTON STATE PREVAILING WAGE LAW
The Prevailing Wages on Public Works Act (Chapter 39.12 RCW) requires that employees of government contractors be
paid prevailing wages for all public work. Agencies awarding public works contracts include state agencies, counties,
municipalities and all political subdivisions of the state.
All public agencies, contractors performing public work, and construction workers on public works construction should be
aware of their rights and legal responsibilities. Failing to comply with the provisions of Chapter 39.12 RCW may subject
contractors and/or public agencies to liability for all unpaid prevailing wages and penalties.
The Department of Labor and Industries (L&I) administers the prevailing wage law. The Office of the Attorney General
provides legal counsel to L&I and prosecutes violators. The State Auditor’s Office ascertains if a public agency’s policies,
procedures and practices meet the requirements of the law.
Do not rely on this plain language description without reading the laws and regulations. The informal discussions below
are meant to be helpful when read in conjunction with the laws and WAC rules. They are not meant to be a substitute
for reading and understanding the laws. After reading the laws and regulations, please do not hesitate to contact the
Prevailing Wage Office with any questions you may have.
The Prevailing Wages on Public Works Act
Enacted in 1945, the Washington State Public Works Act, also known as the “prevailing wage law”, is a worker protection
act. It requires that workers be paid prevailing wages when employed on public works projects, and on public building
service maintenance contracts. (RCW 39.04.010, RCW 39.12.010, and RCW 39.12.020)
The Public Works Act is modeled after the federal Davis-Bacon Act, which was enacted to protect the employees of
contractors performing public works construction from substandard earnings, and to preserve local wage standards.
The Public Works Act regulates wages paid to workers, laborers and mechanics performing public work. It does not apply
to work that is clerical, executive, administrative or professional in nature. For example, the Act does not apply to the
work of a secretary, engineer or administrator, unless they are performing construction work, alteration work, repair
work, etc. Prevailing Wage application depends on the work that is performed, regardless of the worker’s job title. Any
doubts or questions regarding the applicability of the prevailing wage law should be directed to the Prevailing Wage
Office. (RCW 39.12.020 and WAC 296-128-510 through 530)
What Is Public Work?
Public work is all work, construction, alteration, repair or improvement that is executed at the cost of the state or any
other local public agency. This includes, but is not limited to, demolition, remodeling, renovation, road construction,
building construction, ferry construction and utilities construction. (RCW 39.04.010)
What Is Prevailing Wage?
Prevailing Wage is defined as the hourly wage, usual benefits and overtime, paid in the largest city in each county, to the
majority of workers, laborers, and mechanics. Prevailing wages are established, by the Department of Labor and
Industries, for each trade and occupation employed in the performance of public work. They are established separately
for each county, and are reflective of local wage conditions.
Page 81 of 192
City of Port Orchard Page 17 of 22 Procurement Policies & Procedures
Awarding Agencies' Responsibilities
1. Contracts for Public Work: Employers are not responsible for making the legal determination of whether a contract
does or does not meet the definition of a “public works” contract. Public agencies, in awarding a contract, must make
the determination of whether that contract involves “public work” and communicate it to the employers in the bid
specifications and contracts. The law does not allow public agencies to place this burden upon the employer. For
example, it is insufficient to state, “Contractors shall comply with the prevailing wage law, if applicable”. Agencies
should seek the advice of legal counsel regarding when a contract is for public work. Before acting on advice that a
contract is not for public work, agencies should contact the Prevailing Wage Office for a determination of the
applicability of the statute. (RCW 39.04.010, RCW 39.12.030, RCW 39.12.040, and RCW 39.12.042)
2. Prevailing Wage Provisions: Awarding agencies must stipulate in bid specifications and contracts for public work that
workers shall receive the prevailing rate of wage. Those documents must also contain a list of the applicable prevailing
wage rates. Compliance with the law is not met by referring contractors to the department or other sources to obtain
wage rate information. RCW 39.12.030
3. Public Building Service Maintenance Contracts: Public building service maintenance (janitorial) contracts of more than
one year duration must include wage language recognizing the potential for future variance in applicable prevailing
wages each year after the first year of the contract. RCW 39.12.020 and WAC 296-127-023
4. Disbursal of Public Funds: Agencies may not make any payments where employers have not submitted an Intent form
that has been approved by the Industrial Statistician. Agencies may not release retainage until all employers have
submitted an Affidavit form that has been certified by the Industrial Statistician. The requirement to submit these
forms should also be stated in the contract. RCW 39.12.030, RCW 39.12.040 and RCW 39.12.042
5. Turnkey Projects (lessee/lessor relationships between public and private parties): Prevailing wages must be paid for
any work, construction, alteration, repair or improvement, other than ordinary maintenance, that the state or a
municipality causes to be performed by a private party through a contract to rent, lease, or purchase at least fifty
percent of the project by one or more state agencies or municipalities. RCW 39.04.260. It is the responsibility of the
awarding agency to make an accurate determination as to whether the entire project falls within RCW 39.04.260 prior
to entering into a lease relationship for space in a privately owned building. The determination is based on whether
the awarding agency is causing the work to be performed and when at least fifty percent of the leased space is going
to be occupied by one or more public agencies. If RCW 39.04.260 applies, all work performed in conjunction with the
project is covered, not just the tenant improvements, and the project is subject to all provisions of RCW 39.12. Should
the awarding agency fail to comply with all the provisions of RCW 39.04.260 and RCW 39.12.040, the awarding agency
can be held responsible for any unpaid prevailing wages.
6. Contract Administration: Though not legally required, the following activities are recommended to ensure compliance
with the Public Works Act.
a. Job site inspections should be performed on a routine or periodic basis to verify compliance. These
inspections should include checking to see that a copy of the Intent is posted at the job site. Workers
should be randomly interviewed to verify that prevailing wages are received. Apprentice workers should
be asked to show their registration cards.
b. References should be checked when the agency is empowered to select the lowest responsible bidder.
The department can advise an agency regarding an employer’s history of wage claims. Check the
Contractor Debarment List to find out if a contractor is debarred from bidding on public works projects.
c. Verify Contractor Registration Status and Verify Workers’ Compensation Premium Status. Find out
whether a contractor or other employer has an industrial insurance (workers’ compensation) account
with L&I and that their premiums are up to date.

Agenda Staff Report
Agenda Item No.: Business Item 7F Meeting Date: September 22, 2020
Subject: Adoption of a Resolution Authorizing
Mayor or Designee to Initiate a Legal
Action to Seek Abatement of Code
Violations Occurring at SE Crawford Road
Prepared by: Nicholas Bond
DCD Director
Atty Routing No: 025-20
Atty Review Date: September 15, 2020
Summary: By this Resolution the City Council would authorize the Mayor or designee to commence litigation
against Devin Charles Pate and the owners of vehicles and real property located at SE Crawford Road, as
identified in the September 1, 2020, Notice and Order to Abate Junk Vehicles and Public Nuisance for ongoing
public nuisance conditions and violations of the Port Orchard Municipal Code.
By way of background, SE Crawford Road is a private road owned collectively by the owners of the properties
adjoining the road. In conjunction with efforts to clean up various properties along Crawford Rd., ongoing
since 2017, the City of Port Orchard has been pursuing the removal of junk and inoperable vehicles and
vehicle dismantling and repair activities from the roadway. Efforts began with an informal inspection and
contact with residents and owners and have progressed to a Notice and Order to Abate Junk Vehicles and
Public Nuisance issued on September 1, 2020. Despite these efforts, the conditions have gotten significantly
worse over the course of this time.
The numerous junk and inoperable vehicles, many of which are full of junk and garbage, contribute to the
nuisance conditions in the neighborhood and obstruct the road for residents, the public, and emergency and
utility vehicles. In addition, owners who are attempting to clean up their properties and demolish dangerous
buildings can’t get equipment to their properties to do so.
As Crawford Rd. is private, the City’s parking regulations do not apply and junk, inoperable, unlicensed, and
nuisance vehicles cannot be impounded by the City as on public roads. As with any private property, the road
is subject to abatement under POMC Chapters 9.30 (Nuisances) and 10.92 (Junk Vehicles).
The Notice and Orders were served on September 1 & 3, 2020, to each owner of SE Crawford Rd and to the
registered owner of each of the 18 junk and nuisance vehicles present on the road at that time, by certified
and regular mail, posted on the road and on each vehicle, requiring removal the violations within 10 days.
The orders were not appealed and Officer Price reinspected on September 14, 2020, finding 17 of the 18
vehicles remaining on the road parcel.
The vehicles violate POMC Chapters 9.30, 20.66, and 10.92, and constitute a public nuisance under these
Page 140 of 192
Staff Report 7F
Page 2 of 2
regulations.
The City has the authority to abate nuisances and junk vehicles, to expend public funds for the purpose,
and to recover those funds via various means, under the authority of these regulations and RCW 7.48
and 9.66. The City has budgeted funds for the abatement of dangerous buildings and public nuisances.
The next step to secure compliance with the City’s Notice and Order is to file a civil action and seek,
among other relief, a Warrant of Abatement from the Kitsap County Superior Court to enter the Property
and abate the violations. Authorization to initiate lawsuits on behalf of the City must be obtained from
the Port Orchard City Council.
Relationship to Comprehensive Plan: No relationship to Comprehensive Plan.
Recommendation: Provide authorization to the Mayor or designee (Code Enforcement Officer and City
Attorney) to move forward with the lawsuit.
Motion for consideration: I move to adopt a Resolution authorizing the Mayor or designee to
commence legal action against the owners of the vehicles and real property located at SE Crawford Road
for all claims and damages appropriate to remediate the public nuisance conditions and code violations
existing on said property.
Fiscal Impact: A $240 filing fee is required by the Kitsap County Superior Court. The costs of this action,
including attorney fees, are chargeable to the vehicle owners, and so may be reimbursed. Due to
variables in the cost of abatement, unclear ownership of a number of the vehicles, and the difficulty in
collecting such debts, total costs and percentage of recovery of those costs is unknown. It is anticipated
that any cost recovery in this case will be limited; however, the City has budgeted adequate funds for
dangerous building and public nuisance abatement.
Alternatives: Do not approve Resolution and provide guidance to staff regarding either not moving
forward with the abatement or proceeding in a different manner.
Attachments: Resolution, Notice and Order to Abate Junk Vehicles and Public Nuisance.

Subject: Adoption of a Resolution Authorizing Mayor
or Designee to Initiate a Legal Action to Seek
Abatement of Code Violations Occurring at
1743 SE Crawford Road
Prepared by: Nicholas Bond
DCD Director
Atty Routing No: 025-20
Atty Review Date: September 15, 2020
Summary: By this Resolution the City Council would authorize the Mayor or designee to commence litigation
against the owner of real property located at 1743 SE Crawford Road, Kitsap County Tax Parcel No. 012301-
3-031-2004, for ongoing public nuisance conditions and violations of the Port Orchard Municipal Code. By
way of background, the City of Port Orchard has been pursuing the cleanup of 1743 SE Crawford Road and
the associated portion of the private road (the “Property”) under the provisions of various chapters of Port
Orchard Municipal Code since 2017. Efforts began with an informal inspection and personal contact and have
progressed to a Notice and Order to Abate Public Nuisance issued on November 20, 2019. The condition of
the property and road have gotten significantly worse over the course of this time.
The Property is now entirely filled with junk, trash, indoor furniture and household goods left outside and
exposed to the weather, vehicle parts and components, and inoperable, apparently inoperable, junk,
wrecked, and/or dismantled or partially-dismantled vehicles, including cars, trucks, motorcycles and mopeds,
riding lawnmowers, boats, bicycles, and recreational vehicles. The road contains numerous vehicles not
registered, but self-attributed to the owner of the Property, some inoperable, wrecked, being worked on,
being dismantled and used for parts, or just being stored due to the lack of available space on the Property.
The owner continues to accumulate vehicles. The City has received frequent complaints regarding the
Property and continues to receive complaints.
The Notice and Order to Abate was served to the owner by certified and regular mail and posted on the
property. The owner verbally acknowledged receipt of the Notice and Order and promised several times that
he would get it all done, and did briefly make significant progress, but has not continued to do so. Code
Enforcement Officer Doug Price re-inspected the Property on May 8, 2020, finding that vehicles that had
been removed were back and the condition appeared to be back to at least as bad as before the Notice and
Order was issued. These conditions on the Property violate POMC Chapters 9.30, 20.66, and 10.92, and
constitute a public nuisance under these regulations.
The City has the authority to abate nuisances and junk vehicles, to expend public funds for the purpose, and
to recover those funds via various means, under the authority of these regulations and RCW 7.48 and 9.66,
and additionally, to file a lien against the property under the authority of RCW 35A.21.405. The City has
budgeted funds for the abatement of dangerous buildings and public nuisances.
Page 147 of 192
Staff Report 7G
Page 2 of 2
The vehicles on the road obstruct residents, the public, and emergency and utility vehicles (garbage truck,
etc.) from reaching the properties at the end of the road, and sometimes block the road entirely.
The next step to secure compliance with the City’s Notice and Order is to file a civil action and seek, among
other relief, a Warrant of Abatement from the Kitsap County Superior Court to enter the Property and abate
the violations. Authorization to initiate lawsuits on behalf of the City must be obtained from the Port Orchard
City Council.
Relationship to Comprehensive Plan: No relationship to Comprehensive Plan.
Recommendation: Provide authorization to the Mayor or designee (Code Enforcement Officer and City
Attorney) to move forward with the lawsuit.
Motion for consideration: I move to adopt a Resolution authorizing the Mayor or designee to commence
legal action against the owners of real property located at 1743 SE Crawford Road for all claims and damages
appropriate to remediate the public nuisance conditions and code violations existing on said property.
Fiscal Impact: A $240 filing fee is required by the Kitsap County Superior Court. All of the costs of this action,
including attorney fees, are chargeable to the property owner, and so may be reimbursed. Due to variables
in the cost of abatement, response of the owner, and value of the property if sold at tax auction, total costs
and percentage of recovery of those costs is unknown. It is anticipated that cost recovery in this case may
not exceed $2,000, which is likely to be only a portion of the cost of this abatement, as that is the limit of
what may be recorded as a priority lien for a public nuisance abatement, in accordance with the provisions
of RCW 35A.21.405; however, the City has budgeted adequate funds for dangerous building and public
nuisance abatement.
Alternatives: Do not approve Resolution and provide guidance to staff regarding either not moving forward
with the abatement or moving forward in a different manner.
Attachments: Resolution.

I. INTRODUCTION
City of Port Orchard, Kitsap Regional Library and Rice Fergus Miller are conducting public outreach
sessions to review the South Kitsap Community Events Center (SKCEC) project as required by the
Regional Center Interlocal Agreement (RCILA) between the Kitsap Public Facilities District (KPFD)
and the City of Port Orchard to construct.
Rice Fergus Miller is under contract for Phase 1 (RCILA Tasks 1 & 2) to conduct feasibility studies,
programming, conceptual and schematic design. A minimum of three public outreach sessions are
planned during this phase in addition to continuous public communication updates as we work
towards completion of a selected site and schematic design for this project at the end of this phase.
The purpose of this document is to identify the public participation objectives, approach, audiences,
schedule, and opportunities for public participation. This document may be updated over time to
reflect the needs of the project.
II. OBJECTIVES
The Public Participation Objectives include:
· Obtain public input regarding site and building programming and design
· Provide opportunities for public participation to review and offer feedback on the overall
project.

· Provide regular updates to the public so they understand the issues at hand, solutions in
design and the progress of this publicly funded work.
· Use a variety of communication methods while observing WA state regulations in the
prevention of the spread of COVID (such as virtual meetings, online surveys, media, social
media, mailers, etc.) to offer all residents a variety of ways to participate safely and
comfortably.
· Make the public outreach and participation inclusive to people of all ages, races, cultures,
and genders while providing special attention to the residents and businesses of the
community.
III. APPROACH
Serotonin Creative, under contract through Rice Fergus Miller, will take the lead in the public
outreach process. They are a digital agency specializing in public relations, content creation, and
social media strategy, among other communications specialties. They will create, organize, monitor,

approval of the site and building design. Council members will be notified of public outreach
sessions and are invited to participate early in the planning process. All public outreach sessions will
be noticed appropriately so that all Council members are able to fully participate in these events.
The Council will receive periodic updates and will review the Steering Committee recommendations
for the project. Council will have a meeting in January 2021 to make the final project site selection
and approval of the program. They will have another meeting in October 2021 to review the
schematic design, conduct a feasibility study with KPFD, confirm the approval to move forward
with the project and approve the contract for Rice Fergus Miller and the rest of the design team to
proceed with Phase 2.
Steering Committee: The SKCEC Steering Committee members are listed at the beginning of this
document.
City of Port Orchard will provide policy recommendations and conduct initial review and feedback
on presentations to the City Council.

Kitsap Regional Library will provide similar guidance and feedback relative to the library operations
and programming.
Rice Fergus Miller will provide project management of the public outreach team and design team
efforts. They will work closely with Serotonin Creative to ensure all public outreach efforts and
communications stay on track and that we comply with all public record requirements, as outlined
by the City of Port Orchard. They will also lead the design team in ensuring project goals and
objectives are met.
VI. ROLE OF THE PUBLIC
The South Kitsap Community Events Center is being created for the public –their use, their benefit
and their enjoyment. In order for this to be successful, it is important to hear their interests and
desires so they are part of our conversations and decision making in programming, planning and
design of this facility. It is also important to retain the public’s interest throughout this process by
making participation as inclusive, interesting and accessible as possible. This will be accomplished
through advertising, outreach, stakeholder involvement, and various public communication
platforms.
The Washington State Department of Commerce lists benefits of including citizens in the process:
· Enhances the quality of planning by incorporating a wide variety of information and
perspectives.
· Allows communities to make decisions based on shared values.
· Engage citizens in the ownership of local land use challenges and solutions.
· Educates and empowers citizens.
· Supports swift and efficient project implementation.
· Ensures that good plans remain relevant over time.
· Fosters a sense of community and trust in government.
VII. METHODS AND SCHEDULE
The ongoing COVID pandemic presents a unique challenge to our team to effectively maintain
communication and constant connection with the public. We will be using methods that safely
observe all WA State regulations for public safety and social distancing. Internet access will be a
key tool for many of the platforms to be used (i.e. virtual meetings, social media, online surveys,
emails, etc.). Since not all citizens may have access to this, we will also utilize traditional methods as
an alternative (i.e. mail, combination virtual and in-person meetings, etc.) We will find ways to reach
out to a variety of groups to encourage involvement from as wide an audience as possible.
The following tools will be employed to achieve widespread and ongoing citizen involvement:
· 1st Public Outreach Event:
o This will be an online survey that will be open to the public for 3 weeks in late
September to early October 2020 and will be focused on questions about the
building program.
o The Port Orchard branch of Kitsap Regional Library will provide the public outdoor
access to Wi-Fi to facilitate community participation.
o Public notification, including the opening and closing time of the survey plus a link to
the survey website will be communicated to the public in a variety of mediums.
Page 160 of 192
SKCEC PPP
09.16.2020
5 of 5
· 2nd Public Outreach Event:
o Depending on the WA State social distancing policies at the time, this could be a
combination of a virtual and in-person meeting to be held middle to late November
2020.
o Presentation of the conceptual design will be shared with the public for feedback.
· 3rd Public Outreach Event:
o This will be held in 2021 to present the progress of the schematic design to provide
an opportunity for public feedback.
o We will review the WA State social distancing policies at that time and will
determine the most appropriate platform to use for this effort.
· Continuous Public Communication:
o Additional public outreach events may be held as determined from public feedback
and the Steering Committee
o Effective notice of all public outreach events
Underrepresented groups will be specifically targeted for outreach
The date, time, location and/or any online web links to the events will be
published early enough and widely enough for all interested citizens to be
notified
Notice will be published in the Port Orchard Independent (official newspaper
of record) and possibly also the Kitsap Sun
Regular press releases will be published ahead of public meetings, and city
staff will be available for interested reporters and media outlets
Postings in public spaces, social media updates, and email subscription lists
o Written comments and online public feedback forms will be provided
o Interested Parties List will be maintained for notification of all public outreach events
and press or social media releases of project updates.
IX. CONCLUSION
This Public Participation Program is being presented to City Council for approval and
implementation based on the outlined schedule. This program may be updated as conditions
change or additional resources to support outreach activities become available. A copy of the
program shall be made available for viewing at the front counter of the Department of Community
Development and on the city’s website.

Agenda Item No.: Business Item 7J Meeting Date: September 22, 2020
Subject: Approval of an Agreement with STANLEY Prepared by: Mark Dorsey, P.E.
Convergent Security Solutions, Inc. for the Public Works Director
Public Works Ancillary Facilities Security Atty Routing No.: Public Works-Matter 9
Improvements Atty Review Date: September 16, 2020
Summary: On February 25, 2020, the Port Orchard City Council authorized an Agreement with STANLEY
Convergent Security Solutions, Inc., through Washington State Department of Enterprise Systems Contract
No. 03017 to upgrade City Hall access points with an electronic key card system. That Agreement was the
first phase in a multi-phase effort to acquire the software needed to expand access security to other City-
owned Public Works (water & sanitary sewer) ancillary facilities dispersed throughout the city, as staff has
recognized the need for upgraded security from the current hard key system which provides no benefits
for the monitoring of these crucial infrastructure sites. These ancillary facilities house the machinery and
chemicals needed for the day-to-day potable water production/distribution and the wastewater
collection/conveyance operations, and thereby protecting public health.
The City desires to piggyback on the Washington State Department of Enterprise Systems Contract No.
03017 for these additional phases of the security upgrade project. By this Agreement, the Council would
authorize the next phase of security upgrades for City-owned facilities. The Public Works Shop renovations
are now complete, and in addition to the recent interior space remodel, that facility could also benefit
from electronic key cards for accessing the facility and chipped keys/padlocks for accessing the gated yard.
This Public Works Shop security upgrade will be Phase 1 for the ancillary water & sanitary sewer facilities
mentioned above. Phase 2 will include securing all exterior access points to each water & sanitary sewer
facility with chipped key access that will have the ability to grant/deny permission and track entry. All
interior locks at each facility can be upgraded in the future if management deems this necessary as
identified below:
Facilities Quoted Total
Phase 1 - Public Works Shop (incl. License) $26,487.00
Phase 2 - Water & Sanitary Sewer Facilities $27,090.86
Relationship to Comprehensive Plan: N/A
Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the Mayor to enter into an
Agreement with STANLEY Convergent Security Solutions, Inc. for the Ancillary Facilities Security
Improvements, and Council has two options:
Option 1 – Phase 1 Public Works Shop only, in the amount of $26,487.00 (applicable tax included.)
Page 162 of 192
Staff Report 7J
Page 2 of 2
Option 2 – Phase 1 Public Works Shop in the amount of $26,487.00, plus Phase 2 Water & Sanitary
Sewer Facilities, in the additional amount of $27,090.86 (applicable tax included) for a total of
$53,577.86.
Motion for Consideration: I move to authorize the Mayor to enter into an Agreement with STANLEY
Convergent Security Solutions, Inc. for the Ancillary Facilities Security Improvements:
Option 1 – Phase 1 Public Works Shop only, in the amount of $26,487.00 (applicable tax included.)
Option 2 – Phase 1 Public Works Shop in the amount of $26,487.00, plus Phase 2 Water & Sanitary
Sewer Facilities, in the additional amount of $27,090.86 (applicable tax included) for a total of
$53,577.86.
Fiscal Impact: As this is not within the current 2019-2020 Biennial Budget, a budget amendment will be
required.
Alternatives: Do not approve for 2020 and budget within 2021-2022.

Subject Approval of Amendment No. 2 to Prepared by: K. Chris Hammer, P.E.
Contract No. 023-19 with Transportation Assistant City Engineer
Solutions, Inc. Consultants for the Traffic Atty Routing No.: N/A
Impact Fee Study Update Atty Review Date: N/A
Summary: On February 12, 2020, the Mayor executed Contract No. C023-19 with TSI Consultants for an
update of the City’s Traffic Impact Fee Study and associated traffic modeling. The Consultant has
completed the traffic modeling and draft study. Staff has been coordinating with the Transportation
Committee and the Consultant, and Council has provided direction on impact fee rate alternatives.
The City desires to have a uniform citywide traffic impact fee, but currently a separate impact fee exists
for McCormick Woods. The City has been negotiating with the developers to restructure the McCormick
Woods development agreement. It appears that it will be several more months until these negotiations
are concluded. The City desires to move forward with implementing new impact fees, in order to collect
increased fees that are more in line with comparable cities, to better address growth-related
transportation impacts.
Staff is recommending that the City update the traffic impact fees this year, and follow up next year by
adopting a uniform citywide traffic impact fee. The Transportation Committee supports this approach. It
is proposed that the scope for the traffic impact fee study will be expanded to address a phased impact
fee implementation, and consultant fees will be increased by $7,000 to address this change. The new
total amount for the traffic impact fee study will be $32,000.00. No changes are proposed to the
duration of the contract. Please refer to the attached Amendment 2 and TSI’s August 25, 2020 letter
describing the scope and fee for additional information.
Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the Mayor to execute Amendment
No. 2 to Contract No. C023-19 with TSI Consulting for the Traffic Impact Fee Study, in an amount not to
exceed $7,000.00 (for a total amended contract amount of $32,000.00).
Relationship to Comprehensive Plan: Chapter 7 – Transportation.
Motion for Consideration: “I move to authorize the Mayor to execute Amendment No. 2 of Contract No.
C023-19 with TSI Consulting for the for the Traffic Impact Fee Study, in an amount not to exceed
$7,000.00 (for a total amended contract amount of $32,000.00).”
Fiscal Impact: $7,000.00

Alternatives: 1) Renegotiate a lower cost to finalize the Traffic Impact Fee Study without provisions
for implementing a citywide fee following the conclusion of negotiations; 2) Do nothing - stop work
and do not update impact fee rates.
