New York City, Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C. as a result of unprovoked terrorist attacks; and
WHEREAS, on that fateful September morning, we were reminded that the greatest strength in
America is found in the hearts and souls of its citizens, as we witnessed police officers, firefighters,

risking their lives to save innocent victims. On this day, our country came together to provide relief and

world, we can now look at September 11 and see something more than pain -- we can see strength,
heroism and unity; and
WHEREAS, today and every day, we should pray for the brave men and women in uniform who
are serving at home and abroad to protect their homeland and advance liberty around the world; and
WHEREAS, we will never forget, the victims who perished that day, nor the amazing acts of
selflessness; and
WHEREAS, the nation remembers September 11 each year as Patriot Day and as a National
Day of Service and Remembrance, which calls upon all Americans to participate in this observance
through moments of silence, the flying of the flag of the United States at half-staff, as well as activities in

Agenda Item No.: Public Hearing 6A Meeting Date: September 11, 2018
Subject: Public Hearing on the South Kitsap Prepared by: Brandy Rinearson, MMC
School District Bond and Capital Projects City Clerk
Levy Atty Routing No.: NA
Atty Review Date: NA
Summary: The South Kitsap School District is asking the City Council to support the upcoming School
Bond and Levy Propositions. Staff was directed to publish a Public Hearing for citizens to voice their
support or opposition of the ballot measures. Staff sent a public hearing notice to the local media, the
City’s citizen’s distribution list, posted on the City’s Facebook page, and noticed it in the City’s official
newspaper, the Port Orchard Independent.
There are two items on the ballot for the November 6, 2018 Election: Proposition No. 1 Bond to Build
Second High School, and Proposition No. 2 Capital Projects Levy to address urgent safety and security,
facility projects, and technology needs at all schools.
The 2018 Bond measure will address crowding and improve safety at both campuses. This will allow
students greater personalized learning and more opportunities in the arts, athletics, and activities. The
new school would serve the Cedar Heights, Sidney Glen, Sunnyslope and Burley Glenwood areas.
The 2018 Levy measure will fund secure entrances at the Middle Schools, security cameras, intercom
and lockdown notifications systems and fire alarm replacement district wide. In addition, will fund a
large list of renovation of the pool and restrooms, roof replace at John Sedgwick, Sunnyslope, and
Marcus Whitman; and improve ADA accessibility and compliance district wide. Lastly, it will fund
interactive projectors for classrooms, student computers, and infrastructure upgrades to support
technology throughout the district.
Recommendation: Staff recommends the Mayor open the Public Hearing, with the understanding final
action will be taken at the September 25, 2018, Council meeting.
Fiscal Impact: None.
Alternatives: None.
Attachments: None.

Agenda Staff Report
Agenda Item No.: Business Item 7A Meeting Date: September 11, 2018
Subject: Adoption of an Ordinance Amending Port Prepared by: Noah Crocker
Orchard Municipal Code 5.12 “Business Finance Director
Licenses” Atty Routing No.: 088-18
Atty Review Date: September 7, 2018
Summary: Engrossed House Bill (EHB) 2005, adopted by the State Legislature in 2017, required cities and
towns with business license regulations to establish a workgroup that would create a model business
license with a minimum threshold and a definition of “engaging in business” by July 2018. The model
business license created by the workgroup must be adopted by all cities who have business licensing
regulations by January 1, 2019.
The City Business License workgroup has been meeting since last August to draft language for a model
business license ordinance that includes both legislative requirements of defining the meaning of “engaging
in business” and setting a minimum threshold.
The Final model business license ordinance has been released and it contains two required components
that cities and towns must incorporate into their existing business license ordinances.
The two components are as follows:
1. Cities and towns may only impose licensing requirements upon individuals or companies “engaging
in business within the city,” as defined in the model ordinance. The ordinance also sets forth examples
of activities that are considered “engaging in business,” as well as business activities that do not
require licensing. The definition is based on the model ordinance for B&O taxes.
2. For businesses that engage in business within the city but are not physically located within the city,
the ordinance establishes a minimum dollar threshold below which the businesses are partially or fully
exempted from licensing requirements. The minimum threshold of business activity in the ordinance is
$2,000, although cities may adopt a higher threshold if desired. Below this threshold, cities must
either:
• Exempt these businesses from the licensing requirements entirely, or
• Require licensing, but at no cost to the businesses.

Staff Report 7A
Page 2 of 2
Current business licensing partner cities must adopt the language by October 17, 2018 (RCW 35.90.070),
and provide notification to Business Licensing Service (BLS) in order to maintain its business licensing
program on January 1, 2019. The statute requires that notice be received by BLS a minimum of 75 days
prior to the effective date for “all changes that affect in any way who must obtain a license, who is exempt
from obtaining a license, or the amount or method of determining any fee for the issuance or renewal of
the license.” Both provisions of the model ordinance will require the 75-day notification to BLS.
Any city or town that does not adopt the model ordinance by the deadline is prohibited from enforcing its
general business licensing requirements until it adopts the model ordinance provisions.
Recommendation: Staff recommend approving the Ordinance as provided.
Relationship to Comprehensive Plan: N/A
Motion for consideration: “I move to adopt an Ordinance amending POMC 5.12 as presented.”
Fiscal Impact: N/A
Alternatives: Do not approve Ordinance and provide alternative guidance
Attachments: Ordinance and redline POMC 5.12.

ORDINANCE AND ESTABLISHING AN EFFECTIVE DATE OF JANUARY 1,
2019.
WHEREAS, the City of Port Orchard has adopted local regulations establishing standards
and procedures for business licenses, including as currently codified in Chapter 5.12 POMC; and
WHEREAS, in 2017, the state legislature passed EHB 2005, an act relating to improving
the business climate in Washington state by simplifying the administration of municipal general
business licenses and requiring cities to develop a general business licensing model ordinance;
and
WHEREAS, cities, working through the Association of Washington Cities (AWC),
established a model ordinance development committee made up of a representative sampling
of cities that impose a general business license requirement. A city that imposes a general
business license requirement must adopt the mandatory provisions of the model ordinance by
January 1, 2019. The mandatory provisions of the model ordinance include the following: (1)
the definition of “engaging in business within the city”; and (2) a uniform minimum licensing
threshold under which a person would not have to obtain a city’s general business license; and
WHEREAS, the City of Port Orchard has determined to amend the code to follow these
prescribed standards, as well as to make any other necessary changes to Chapter POMC 5.12;
now, therefore,

Warrant of Abatement at 1013 Morton Atty Review Date: September 6, 2018
Street
Summary: The City of Port Orchard has been pursuing the abatement of 1013 Morton Street under the
provisions of Chapter 35.80 RCW, as adopted by Port Orchard Municipal Code (POMC) Section 20.212.
The current owners purchased the property located at 1013 Morton Street in October 2005. The two
buildings, a 1.5-story house with daylight basement and a two-story garage/storage building, both built
in 1912, have been vacant, dilapidated, and uninhabitable since at least April 2007, and the front
retaining wall is broken, bulging and in danger of failure. Since 2007, the City has received repeated
complaints about the buildings and property and had to make multiple contacts with the owners
related to unsecured buildings, unpermitted work, uncontrolled vegetation, and property maintenance
issues. In February 2008, City staff found work being done in the building without permits and stopped
the work. Since that time, there have been no permit applications, no further work has been done
(with the exception of the removal of a ramp between the two buildings), and the buildings and
structures have continued to deteriorate, with no apparent maintenance done to preserve the
buildings or structures.
On September 12, 2017, Code Enforcement Officer Doug Price inspected the buildings on the Property,
from the exterior only, and found multiple violations of Section 20.212. POMC. Due to damage,
dilapidation, and improper and unpermitted construction and modification, the buildings and
structures on the Property are dangerous or unfit for human habitation or other uses, as defined by
POMC 20.212.040. On November 7, 2017, the City issued a Complaint and Notice of Hearing, stating in
what respects the property is dangerous or unfit and accomplished proper service of the Complaint
and Notice. The owners of the property never responded to the Complaint and Notice, but did appear
at the hearing on November 27, 2017 before City’s Community Development Director. The owners did
not, however, propose any plan to address the City’s Complaint. The City filed its Findings and Order
on November 29, 2017, and accomplished proper service of the Findings and Order. The owners of the
property have filed no appeal of the Notice and Order, and to date, the dangerous buildings and
structures have not been abated.

Staff Report 7D
Page 2 of 2
The next step to secure compliance with the City’s Notice and Order is to obtain a Warrant of
Abatement from the Kitsap County Superior Court. Authorization to initiate lawsuits on behalf of the
City must be obtained from the Port Orchard City Council.
Recommendation: Provide authorization to the Code Enforcement Officer and City Attorney to move
forward with the lawsuit to seek a Warrant of Abatement.
Relationship to Comprehensive Plan: No relationship to Comprehensive Plan.
Motion for consideration: I move to approve the Resolution authorizing the Port Orchard Code
Enforcement Officer and City Attorney to undertake such actions as are necessary and appropriate to
initiate and pursue a lawsuit for a Warrant of Abatement for the owners of 1013 Morton Street on
behalf of the City of Port Orchard as presented.
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.
Alternatives: Do not approve Resolution and provide guidance to staff regarding either not moving
forward with the abatement or moving forward without a Warrant of Abatement from the Kitsap
County Superior Court.
Attachments: Resolution.

mentioned before, the Change Order approval process between the Contractor, the City’s CA/CM Team
and WSDOT Highways & Local Programs will not occur in time for this Regular Meeting and cannot wait,
therefore, the City’s Public Works Department is requesting authorization for the Mayor to execute
Change Order No. 7 in an amount of $114,820.78 with Active Construction, Inc. at this time. In general
summary, the current value of all change orders to date total $787,825.65, or 78.8% of the Contingency
Value.
Relationship to Comprehensive Plan: Project 1.1 – Chapter 8: Transportation.
Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the Mayor to execute Change
Orders No. 7 with Active Construction, Inc. in the amount not to exceed $114,820.78 added to the
current contract amount.
Motion for Consideration: I move to authorize the Mayor to execute Change Order No. 7 with Active
Construction, Inc. in the amount not to exceed $114,820.78 added to the current contract amount.
Fiscal Impact: Funding provided within the approved 2017-2018 Budget for this Project.

Description
This change shifts the 30 In. storm drain south to avoid the unanticipated existing 6” underdrain below the
north abutment at SR 16, between “T” Sta. 6+42.50 and “T” Sta. 9+36. During design, the location of the
existing underdrain was not known during potholing. The contractor discovered that it was located along
the same alignment as the proposed 30 In. ductile iron storm drain pipe. BergerABAM met with WSDOT
on 9/18/2017 and WSDOT requested that the existing underdrain be protected rather than be replaced.
This Change Order also compensates the contractor for the installation and maintenance of a Dewatering
System. Potholing data indicate a water table at the elevation of the underdrain during the summer
months. Since the plans did not show the elevation of the existing underdrain dewatering was not includ-
ed in the unit prices.
The following plan sheets are modified and are incorporated as part of this change order:
DM-1; plan sheet 11 of 232, Demolition Plan – Sheet 1; revision date 8/27/2018
RP-1; plan sheet 62 or 232, Tremont St Plan and Profile – Sheet 1; revision date 8/27/2018
