02/21/1996 - MinutesPUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT 21 February 1996 TO: Public Property -- Committee FM: City Engineead - 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. cc Council Treas Clerk KITSAP TRANSIT Date: February 12. 199E RE CE IV To: Dick Hayes FEB 1 3 1996 From: Jim Lundstrom CITYOi P0H"t UH,,JrJAH0 PUBLIC WORKS 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. cc: Larry Curler Wendy Clark 234 South Wycoff Bremerton, Washington 98312-4199 (360) 479-6962 FAX (360) 377-7086 KI TSAP TRANSIT February 14, 1996 Lawrence J.

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. 234 South Wycoff Bremerton, Washington 98312-4199 (360) 479-6962 FAX (360) 377-7086 Lawrence J. Curles, P.E. Kenneth Atteberry Jay Holman February 14, 1996 - Page Two 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. Sincerely, Richard M. Hayes Executive Director RMHla11.329 cc: Hilton Smith
