RE: Committee Minutes
The Public Property Committee met at the Pot Belly Deli for a
breakfast meeting on 21 February 1996. Members present were
Carolyn Powers and Jack Grable. Don Morrison substituted for John
Clauson. Also present was Larry Curles.
The Committee met to review the lease that Dick Hayes had sent
over for the Port Orchard Library. An unexpected paragraph had
been added to the lease that changed the terms that had been
previously agreed upon. Mr Hayes will be be asked for a new lease
without the extra paragraph.
The enclosed letter advises the City that Sidney Landing is being
modified by Kitsap Transit.
The enclosed memo reaffirms that Kitsap Transit wants to use the
former landfill.
The Committee discussed the Parkwood property. The City Council
needs to discuss this issue. The Committee will recommend that
the site be declared surplus to the needs of the City and offer
it for sale.
The repair of the gutters on the South Shed (the former Fire
Station #2) will cost $650. The City Engineer will proceed with
this repair.

Subject: Port Orchard Landfill
As .you requested. I contacted Larry Curles on January 22. 1996
regarding our interest in the Port Orchard Landfill in light of the
interest which was being expressed by others.
I assured Larry we were still interested in the space. I
reiterated our long term plans as follows:
1. continue using the one half acre vehicle storage space
which we develoved last summer
L. ultimately develop the upper "plateau" area for light
vehicle maintenance and bus storage
3. expand the current bus storage area by one to two acres and
develop it as a park and ride lot
I indicated to him that numbers two and three were still some time
off but were definitely in out long term plans. I offered to re-
commit our interest up to and including reconfirming our Board
resolution of last spring. He indicated that that was not
necessary as what I told him was sufficient.

CITY Of- PGA Gn:
PUB[ -IC WORKS
On January 31, Kitsap Transit submitted the original Sidney Landing proposal of the
Transportation Improvement Board for Central Puget Sound Public Transportation Account
(CPSPTA) funding of the marine improvements. After reviewing the original Sidney Landing
proposed implementation dates and comparing them with the parameters of the situation new
Horluck Transportation ownership, relative to how its assets can be used, I am suggesting that
we revise the proposed implementation dates in the CPSPTA application while we sit down
together and determine how the puzzle pieces would fit together from a legal and a cooperating
agency point of view versus the project and construction aspect. Specifically, in the process of
buying Horluck, Hilton Smith has tied up certain assets as security for parts of the purchase.
He cannot as readily pledge the dock space or other assets that were considered an integral part
of the project to the new project as could his predecessor, the Lieseke family. He is particularly
concerned that the assets in question, especially the dock and underlying DNR lease, are pledged
because they secure exclusive operating rights and he would need to have that same agreement
of exclusivity as an operator on the passenger ferry parts of the new facility before he could
significantly amend this lease arrangement or give away the dock to either alternative use or to
removal. On the other hand, the government agencies in question may not be able to provide
that degree of exclusivity without running afoul of their own legal requirements.
Accordingly, I am suggesting that we have a preliminary work session, with attorneys as well
as the group listed above, to ascertain how we might solve this fundamental question. I am not
sure that it will require a lengthy deferral of the project but the issues seem complicated enough
to me to cause some degree of delay.

At the same time, there appears to be a separable and straight forward element of the project,
i.e., the pedestrian/ADA arrangement. This element could go ahead because I don't think it
depends on any particular significant changes to Horluck ownership or use patterns. Therefore,
we are submitting an ISTEA Enhancement grant to the Puget Sound Regional Council for that
work and we are requesting your participating support. It would make both Port and Horluck
facilities ADA accessible in the short term. We need to discuss whether my assumptions about
this ADA element being able to proceed separately is also accurate. Audry Morell of my office
will contact each of you about such a time for a meeting.
