ACTION AND DISCUSSIONS ITEMS

CONTRACTS/AGREEMENTS

— Agreement No. 04SJ15. Present: Jon Shannon, Public Works Director.

At the request of Commissioner Miller, Mr. Shannon explained that this agreement has been in existence for many years but recently expired. A similar agreement exists between Whatcom County and Skagit, Island and Snohomish counties for deflection testing of the weight load on pavement that is constructed with Rural Arterial Project (RAP) funding. He estimated that the total cost for using their equipment over the next 10 years would probably amount to no more than $1,000.

The following action was taken: Moved by Evans, seconded by Miller, to sign the Intergovernmental Agreement between SJC and Whatcom County for engineering, administrative and clerical expertise to perform deflection testing on RAP projects in SJC, pursuant to the guidelines established in SJC Ordinance 4-2000, under the terms and conditions as outlined therein.

Motion carried.

PERSONNEL ISSUES

— 1. Request to Post the Position of Full-Time Solid Waste Facility Operator for Orcas and San Juan Islands. Present: Jon Shannon, Public Works Director, and Matt Zybas, Solid Waste Manager.

Mr. Shannon and Mr. Zybas explained that in the past this position has been filled with temporary employees. The Federal Labor Law and SJC Personnel Rule 11.010 (2) prohibit the use of temporary employees for regular routine duties over long periods of time.

Working with Becky Rusnak, Human Resources Manager, to eliminate any liability, the Solid Waste Division is requesting to post one regular full-time operator position to be shared between the Orcas and San Juan transfer stations. This proposal does not change current staffing levels; would provide a position filled by one person with benefits; and, it is currently funded within the approved 2004 budget.

Additional information was provided in the Staff Reports dated May 12, 2004 from Mr. Zybas and Ms. Rusnak.

The following action was taken: Moved by Evans, seconded by Miller, to approve the posting of a full-time Solid Waste Facility Operator for the Orcas and San Juan transfer stations at Range F, Step 1 of the Local 1849 Salary Schedule per the recommendation in the Staff Reports dated May 12, 2004 from the Solid Waste Manager and Human Resources Manager.

MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS

— 1. SJC Elections Issues. Present: Si A. Stephens, SJC Auditor, and Dan Gillespie, Elections Supervisor.

Mr. Stephens updated the BOCC on implementation of electronic voting in Washington state. This will become a requirement in January 2006. He explained to the Board that while he is Auditor, he will continue to insist that a paper ballot be available for every voter, even with electronic voting. He does not wish to implement this procedure until it is required.

He reviewed in detail the process used by his office for elections held in SJC, assuring the BOCC that the procedures used in this county exceed the requirements set forth by the Secretary of State.

He and Mr. Gillespie had attended the State Elections Conference held the prior week and shared information on the September Primary Election and November General Election processes.

The following is a summary of the ensuing discussion:

(a) New election policies and procedures will be written to accommodate changes in the primary election. This falls under the direction of the Canvass Board.

(b) There are new voter registration laws. Citizens desiring to register to vote in counties in WA are required to provide elections personnel with photo identification (such as a driver’s license) and proof of residency in that county. The Secretary of State’s office will verify this information. The existing oath is still required.

(c) The Presidential Primary will be a Modified Montana election. The WACs are being written. Three parties will be allowed on the ballot — Republican, Democrat and Libertarian. Whether voting at the poles or by absentee ballot, voters must check a box declaring which party they are voting for. If the appropriate box is not checked, then votes can only be cast for only non-partisan offices.

Mr. Stephens commented that the last time voters in SJC had to declare party affiliation, voter turnout in SJC was the lowest it had ever been. He did state that no list will be maintained on which party affiliation was selected. This closed primary is estimated to cost an additional $5,000,000 in WA state and $38,000 more in SJC.

The Grange and others have filed lawsuits; however, he did not feel it would make a difference at this time. Minor party candidates (such as the “Green Party”) will only be listed on the General Election Ballot. Candidates from these parties will be chosen by convention.

(d) The Board requested information on the filing and election of Freeholders on the November ballot. Mr. Stephens related that the last Home Rule Charter attempt in SJC had 21 Freeholders. He said at this time, if the “district” method was selected, it would break down as 10 from District 1, seven from District 2, and four from District 3. However, he emphasized that it is the BOCC that makes the decision on the number of Freeholders and prerequisites (precinct or district) of candidate requirements.

Additionally, he informed the BOCC that any candidates must be residents of SJC for at least five years at the time of filing, must reside within the area determined by the BOCC, and must be registered voters in SJC.

Mr. Stephens estimated that the cost for this Freeholder portion of the election would be at least $25,000, but could be as high as $40,000. He suggested that the filing date for these positions be in August or early September. He preferred that they not file with the regular candidates for other offices in July. He stated that he would prefer that the BOCC choose the “district” method rather than the “precinct” method.

In closing, he stated that he and Mr. Gillespie will meet with the Prosecuting Attorney on this matter and present more information and any recommendations in the near future.

— 2. Report on the Governor’s Forum on the U.S. Commission on Ocean Policy Report.

Commissioner Miller reported that 12 people met with Governor Locke to offer comments on the U.S. Commission on Ocean Policy Report. It mirrors the Pew Commission on Oceans. The USOC wants funding to come from offshore drilling to pay for protection of marine life.

Some of the issues of discussion were Marine Protected Areas, Ocean Councils, fund raising, aging infrastructure problems in the USA related to storm water, impervious surfaces, sewer runoff, etc. SJC is already working on many of the issues identified in the Puget Sound area.

The theme of the meeting was “Oceans Affect and Sustain All Life on Earth.” Among those present were Tom Cowan, Executive Director of the Northwest Straits Commission, a representative of the Northwest Fisheries Commission, and Doug Sutherland, Commissioner of Lands.

One concern expressed by Ms. Miller was the proposed reorganization of the Commission. Commissioner Evans restated his views on overharvesting of marine life and the resulting impacts. Ms. Miller told fellow Board members that she had placed the information from the meeting in the BOCC “Mail Box” for the Board’s review.

— 3. Proclamation. Commissioner Evans proposed that the BOCC sign a proclamation on behalf of the County honoring retiring Orcas Island Fire Chief Gary Bennett. He added that he would present this to Mr. Bennett at his retirement dinner this evening. The following action was taken: Moved by Evans, seconded by Miller, to proclaim Tuesday, May 18, 2004, as Gary Bennett Day in appreciation of his contributions to SJC. Motion carried.

PUBLIC HEARINGS/MEETINGS

Noon: A luncheon and joint meeting was held with the Town of Friday Harbor Council. Present: Councilmembers Wally Gillette, Debbie Emery, Carrie Brooks, David Jones, Howie Rosenfeld; King Fitch, Town Administrator; Mike Bertrand, Land Use Administrator/Town Marshal; Randall Gaylord, SJC Prosecuting Attorney; various SJC Department Heads and Elected Officials; Bob Distler, Chair, SJC Ferry Advisory Committee; and interested citizens.

— Second Ferry Slip: Mr. Distler detailed the history for the proposed renovation at the Friday Harbor Terminal. He stated that he objected to the deletion of the second slip. However, funding, environmental and permitting issues are reasons that the temporary second slip will not be made permanent at this time. The temporary slip will be dismantled when the main slip is returned to service, but it will be designed so that a second slip could be built in the future.

He encouraged the Town, Port of Friday Harbor and County to work together to develop a comprehensive proposal to submit to Washington State Ferries (WSF) to relieve traffic congestion and pedestrian traffic to help with the loading and offloading delays. All agreed that the second slip is necessary in the event of an emergency.

Mr. Distler and Commissioner Nielsen will draft a letter to be signed by the Town and County and sent to WSF supporting the second slip.

— Solid Waste Issues: Matt Zybas, SJC Solid Waste Manager, updated the Council and Board on his meeting with Mr. Fitch and Mark Tompkins, SJC Environmental Health Manager, regarding the shelf area at the Town’s landfill site.

The County will look at moving the modular trailers so that the Town can do the necessary re-grading of the site to comply with their landfill closure plan, and a second lease will be negotiated for that portion of the property.

The Town Council explained that its reasons for increasing the lease of the property was due largely to the County increasing the tipping rates for the Town’s haulers. The increase came after they had adopted their budget for 2004 and they had to search for revenue to cover the increase. They had to then pass that increase to the Town citizens.

Commissioner Miller explained the history of the site with regards to acquisition of the Town property and the Sundstrom property for the proposed recycling center. She stated that the County couldn’t justify the cost of the property to the County taxpayers if the County is not paying fair market prices as required by State law. She conveyed the increase in costs to dispose of garbage and recyclables were due to ferry fares and gasoline prices, which have increased dramatically, and basic costs are strained. She also cited a strong sense of urgency to do something soon or we would lose the ability to recycle entirely.

Commissioner Evans said that the site is an embarrassment to the Town and County and that if the County doesn’t receive some relief regarding space or financing, it will be difficult to offer both garbage and recycling services on SJI.

Councilmember Emery stated she thought the town understood the situation, but they would like to know ahead of time what the future costs will be for budgeting purposes.

Commissioner Evans stated that the rate the Town is charged as a commercial hauler is significantly less than what the self-hauler pays. He said that only if we could be assured of what the rates for ferry fares and gasoline would be in the future, could we then assure the Town what their costs would be.

Councilmember Brooks reminded the Board that the Town has a small population from which to pool resources and that 60 percent of the Town’s residents are under the median income level. She also stated that the County was leasing the land for a nominal fee and the Town felt the County was not recognizing that contribution as doing their part to hold the cost down.

Staff will work on negotiating two separate leases for the property.

— Essential Public Facilities/Joint Planning Policies: Commissioner Nielsen reminded all that the Town and County must work together to site Essential Public Facilities. She stated that citizens do not have a clear delineation between the “County” and the “Town” issues.

The Growth Management Act requires Towns/Cities and Counties to have joint planning policies, and the Growth Hearing Boards support joint plans. She stressed that both governments need to encourage their staff to uphold and comply with the Joint Planning Policies now in place between the Town and County.

— Turn Point/Pear Point Road: The Board explained to the Town that there is no money in the road fund to accomplish this project at this time. The County is facing several road failures on both Orcas and San Juan islands. The biggest road failure presently is Cattle Point Road where it passes through American Camp.

The Town shared their concerns regarding the congestion on Warbass and Harrison roads particularly at the time a ferry is unloading.

Jon Shannon, SJC Public Works Director, stated the project is on the County’s 20-year plan, but that it is in the 10- to 15-year range. All agreed that the Turn Point/Pear Point Plan adopted previously is still in effect.

— Capron Funds: Mr. Shannon explained the situation regarding the distribution of these funds. Currently the Treasurer is distributing the funds as required by State Law. He stated that the policy makers would need to negotiate and enter into an intergovernmental agreement to do anything other than what the State law requires.

Commissioner Nielsen explained that road funds are depleted and the Capron funding is needed countywide.

Councilmember Rosenfeld said that the reduction in funding to the Town was being decreased from 10 to 7 percent.

Commissioner Nielsen suggested it might be time to look at an intergovernmental agreement, and that maybe these funds should be used for the landside connections to the ferry terminals, which is our connection to the State highways.

— Future Meetings: The general question was posed as to whether to continue joint meetings and under what format. The Board stated that Tuesdays are best for them. The Council stated that Tuesdays are outside of their meeting days, which are Thursdays, and that they have to pass an ordinance to meet on other days. They also explained that they are paid a nominal sum for their regular meetings and that this meeting was voluntary on their part.

Commissioner Nielsen suggested short, one-hour meetings at Noon. Councilmember Rosenfeld suggested quarterly meetings and of those four meetings, two would be held on Thursdays and two would be held on Tuesdays. The group agreed by consensus to that suggestion. Town and County staff will work on scheduling those meetings.

— ADUs/Guest houses: This topic was not on the Town or County agendas, but raised by Commissioner Evans while there was still some allotted time available. (Recorder’s Note: This topic stems from the Town’s appeal to the Growth Management Board of the County’s ADU policies.)

He stated that he didn’t understand the Town’s position because the Town has control over who gets water and under what conditions. The County wants the Town to accept their ADU policies and for the Town to place their own restrictions/conditions on the Town water system. The Town wants to be exempted from the County’s policies.

Commissioner Nielsen explained that this was a much broader issue. She stated the State Housing Policy adopted in 1993 says that ADUs are to be allowed in all urban areas. She reiterated that how the Town manages their water is up to them.

Mr. Fitch stated that the Town water system also serves 350 homes outside of the Town borders and is concerned with complying with the County policies in those situations.

Commissioner Miller told of how every other water system, both public and private, are saying “no” to their members for more water connections if water is not available. Mr. Fitch asked that the County support the Town’s policy on vacation rentals. Commissioner Miller asked that these issues be brought to Town and County staff and requested a memo from the Town stating their requests.

WORK SESSIONS

— 10:30 a.m.: A work session was held to receive the first quarter financial report for 2004 and to discuss the preliminary 2005 SJC Budget. Present: Si A. Stephens, SJC Auditor; Kathy Turnbull, SJC Treasurer; available Department Heads and Elected Officials; and interested citizens.

Mr. Stephens began by cautioning all present that the first quarter figures are not a true indication of trends. Ms. Turnbull then presented the revenue figures and stated that with the new cash receipting system, more property tax payments were reported in April; however, the May figures may be lower than in prior years.

Sales tax revenue is up slightly from last year and approximately $188,000 in sales tax due has been recovered with the work performed by her research staff. This amount has been verified by the State.

E-911 has been removed from County Current as of late last year and now has its own fund.

She echoed Mr. Stephens’ opening statement explaining the State is one full quarter behind in their reporting. Interest rates are showing a slight movement upward, but there is still a 14 percent difference from the prior year.

Mr. Stephens pointed out the anomalies between last year and this year. This included several payments from the State that should have been paid in 2003 but were received in 2004. State sales tax payments are two months behind.

Mr. Stephens passed out several handouts for informational purposes and went over each item. He stated that this information is posted on the SJC internal “K” drive.

Chair Nielsen asked if there were any comments from those present. The following is a summary of the ensuing discussion:

Commissioner Miller expressed her concerns regarding rising expenses such as a 100 percent increase in commuter parking fees in Anacortes, increased ferry fares, a 30 percent increase in the cost of electricity, and gasoline now costs upward of $2.50 a gallon. These factors will increase Maintenance and Operation (M&O) costs for the County and businesses. She has been told that retail business has been poor on Lopez Island. The Freeholder process will add to SJC budget expenses, and there is a potential initiative that could reduce revenue by 25 percent.

The Auditor agreed that increased expenses could be devastating. He also cautioned the Board regarding approval of any additional emergency appropriation requests.

Commissioner Evans proposed to move forward with a status quo budget for 2005. He explained that he did not want to put the County through an involved process that is also expensive. He related that he had been invited to a meeting of managers and senior staff a couple of weeks ago. The attendees were unanimous in conveying the time and effort that goes into the usual budget process reduces productivity.

Last year, with the “Priorities of Government” (POG) process, six months were spent identifying each department’s role in, and contribution to, public health, safety and welfare. This process resulted in the determination that those departments funded by the General Fund all contributed in one way or another. He emphasized that nothing has changed and there was no need to duplicate the effort for 2005.

Further, the time spent by each department in preparation of these detailed accounts was actually costing money and the uncertainty of funding is creating a stressful working environment for all employees. He further proposed that this 2005 budget be calculated with a two percent increase in labor costs; that the BOCC make any necessary adjustments or cuts only when it is known if any new initiative is passed that would affect revenue; and, that if there were any new program proposals, that a source of funding would have to be identified in order to bring them forward.

Commissioner Nielsen stated that the POG process was useful, but she did not feel that SJC had adhered to the priorities identified. She personally did not expect any new budget requests without new revenue being identified. She recommended the Board consider some cuts if the revenue outlook was not favorable.

She agreed an abbreviated budget process was in order but made it clear that she wanted the process transparent to the public. She shared that Clark County had presented information to the public, which incorporated the proposed 25 percent cut, so that citizens had a clear concept of what could happen. She also emphasized that SJC does not have any choices with the costs associated with State mandates.

Commissioner Miller expressed her concern about the impact of the potential initiative stating it would amount to approximately an $800,000 loss of revenue to SJC alone. She did not wish to wait until November to consider what cuts may have to be made.

Mr. Stephens interjected that he has been monitoring this initiative and that he will know by July if it will be placed on the November ballot. He fully agreed that an abbreviated budget process was a good idea and stated that he and his staff can prepare a modified budget if the proposed initiative has enough signatures to be place on the ballot.

SJC Clerk, Mary Jean Cahail, concurred with the status quo proposal stating how much productive management and staff time was lost in the longer budget process. She then informed the Board that there is a new State mandate beginning June 1, 2004, requiring that the County Clerks be the “keepers” of any last will and testaments they are asked to hold. She has already determined that local attorneys will be availing themselves of this new service, but added that there is no place to store these documents.

Mr. Evans asked if it was possible to go to the public on the November ballot for a levy lift. Mr. Stephens stated it would have to wait until the following February. Others in attendance concurred with the abbreviated budget process.

At the conclusion of the meeting, the Board agreed that they would wait until July to determine what may need to be done regarding budget cuts, depending on whether or not the initiative is placed on the ballot.

EXECUTIVE/CLOSED SESSIONS

— 2:32 p.m.: Commissioner Nielsen announced the BOCC would be holding an executive session estimated to last approximately 30 minutes, to discuss a matter of litigation, pursuant to the provisions of RCW 42.30.110(1)(i). The session ended at 3:32 p.m. for an actual session time of one hour. No action was taken.

— 3:35 p.m.: Commissioner Nielsen announced the BOCC would be holding a closed session estimated to last approximately 30 minutes, to discuss a matter of labor, pursuant to the provisions of RCW 42.30.140(4)(b).

PUBLIC HEARINGS/MEETINGS

— 10:00 a.m.: The Commissioners attended/observed, by telephone conference call, the Growth Management Hearing Board’s Public Hearing (WWGMHB) regarding Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Compliance in San Juan County.

The hearing was conducted by Western Washington Growth Management Hearing Board members, Holly Gadbaw, Chair; Nan Henricksen, member; and Margery Hite, member, who was to join the hearing late. Randall Gaylord, SJC Prosecuting Attorney, represented the County at this hearing. Attending for the County was Francine Shaw, Deputy Director, CDPD; and DJ Sessner, SJC Senior Planner. Also participating via telephone conference were appellants, Lynn Bahrych, Stephanie Buffum and Jon Christoffersen sitting in for Joe Symons.

Mr. Gaylord reviewed the County’s actions for compliance to the Growth Board’s order of April 17, 2003. He stated that the County has complied with the order in that it has not issued any permits for freestanding or detached ADUs since the order was submitted. He also reported that there was an Administrative Determination in place to not accept applications for building permits of detached ADU’s; the County is continuing to seek review of the Growth Board’s decision through the Court of Appeals; and a mediation meeting was planned for May 24, 2003 with the appellants to attempt to settle this matter.

The appellants were concerned that the County had not amended its ordinance to comply with the Growth Board’s order and stated that they are pleased with the cooperation for the mediation meeting.

After further discussion, the Growth Board agreed to not issue an order until after they received a report on the mediation effort. That report is due to the Growth Board on Friday, May 28, 2004.
