Councilmember Magdoff opened the meeting. 1. Community Development Director Lori Barnett initiated a presentation regarding potential councilmanic imposition of a sales and use tax as authorized by House Bill 1590 to fund Homeless/Housing and Support Services. Wenatchee Councilmember Linda Herald spoke to the Council regarding a proposal for a low-barrier shelter project to serve unsheltered individuals. She also spoke regarding the limited options that local governments have to enforce camping restriction on the homelessness without low-barrier shelters in place. City of Wenatchee’s Grant Programs Coordinator Sandra Van Osten presented information to the Council regarding the financial and environmental impacts of homelessness and explained how low-barrier shelters could lower COVID-19 transmission, reduce non-reimbursable healthcare costs for hospitals and clinics and decrease negative law enforcement interactions. City of Wenatchee’s Chief of Police Steve Crown spoke to the fact that a low- barrier shelter is not an end all, however it is very useful to law enforcement to move homeless individuals off the street to a safe place until they become sober -in some cases- and have services available to them in the morning to aid with homelessness. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 50 of 241 2-25-2021 Council Workshop Minutes Page 2 of 3 Grant Programs Coordinator Sandra Van Osten presented information about House Bill 1590 and allowable uses and eligible population. This is a councilmanic option to address housing and homeless services. A project description was provided as Phase 1, based on a sleep center model similar to programs that have been implemented in Walla Walla and Moses Lake. These sleep centers are weatherproof to withstand wind, rain, and snow, are heavily insulated but not heated. Local health care providers would have an opportunity to provide an onsite service, there would be case managers on-site during the day to help clients access services and transition into permanent housing. There would also be an overnight security guard. Staff provided recommendation to the Council asking the City of East Wenatchee to convene a public hearing to take testimony, deliberate, and take action on the potential of enacting the House Bill 1590 sales and use tax, using the revenue generated to pursue strategies in: Phase I: Development of a new low-barrier sleep center targeting unsheltered and chronically homeless clients. Phase II: Expansion of existing homeless services to support sleep center clients in transitioning to permanent housing and supporting the development of permanent housing and other affordable housing options. Comments provided by City of Wenatchee Chief of Police Steve Crown, City of Wenatchee Community Development Director Glen Devries, City of East Wenatchee Community Development Director Lori Barnett, Councilmember Hepner, Councilmember Tidd, Mayor Crawford, Councilmember Raab, and Councilmember Johnson. 2. Project Development Manager Tom Wachholder presented information on current street preservation funding, pavement condition and alternative revenue sources for the City’s Transportation Benefit District that could replace the current $20 car tab fee. Mr. Wachholder provided information from other jurisdictions that have successfully implemented the sales tax option as a replacement for the car tab fees to support their Transportation Benefit District. It was noted that this funding source broadens the population base paying for street preservation projects to everyone who travel on the streets, not just city residents. Council requested staff to contact the various cities that have successfully passed the Sales and Use Tax to fund Transportation Benefit Districts and learn more about their campaign strategies. Additionally, the City Council asked staff to look into someone to poll the community to learn how the public would respond to this ask and possibly reach out to the City of Wenatchee to see if they have any interest in pursuing the same funding option. Comments provided by all Councilmembers, Community Development Director Lori Barnett, Mayor Crawford, and City Attorney Devin Poulson. 3. Finance Director Josh DeLay presented a 2020 yearend Financial Report. No comments were provided by the Council. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 51 of 241 2-25-2021 Council Workshop Minutes Page 3 of 3 4.

II. Background/History: In June of 2020 the City Council approved initiating a project to amend the East Wenatchee Municipal Code and Greater East Wenatchee Urban Growth Area Design Standards & Guidelines to address Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 1923 providing options for cities planning under the Growth Management Act to adopt actions to increase residential building capacity. The proposal under consideration addresses two of the three actions that the Council approved: • Authorize at least one duplex, triplex, or courtyard apartment on each parcel in one or more zoning districts that permit single- family residences unless a city documents a specific infrastructure or physical constraint that would make this requirement unfeasible for a particular parcel. • Authorize a duplex on each corner lot within all zoning districts that permit single-family residences. The Planning Commission held workshops on August 25, 2020 and October 27, 2020 to review and discuss the proposed amendments. The proposed amendments were submitted to the state and local agencies for review and have been posted on the City’s website since December 2020. At their February 23, 2021 public hearing, the Planning Commission took action to recommend approval of the 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 55 of 241 proposed amendments to the East Wenatchee Municipal Code. However, they remanded the proposed amendments to the Greater East Wenatchee Urban Growth Area Design Standards & Guidelines back to staff for more work. Unfortunately, the public was not given an opportunity to comment on the proposal. As such this hearing before the City Council provides that opportunity for public comment. I.

II. Background/History: On June 2, 2020, the City Council approved hiring a consultant – Makers Architecture and Urban Design, LLP – to initiate amendments to the East Wenatchee Municipal Code and Greater East Wenatchee Urban Growth Area Design Standards & Guidelines to address legislative provision in Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill (E2SHB) 1923 encouraging cities planning under the Growth Management Act to adopt actions to increase residential building capacity. The City selected the following actions: • Authorize at least one duplex, triplex, or courtyard apartment on each parcel in one or more zoning districts that permit single- family residences unless a city documents a specific infrastructure or physical constraint that would make this requirement unfeasible for a particular parcel. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 57 of 241 • Authorize a duplex on each corner lot within all zoning districts that permit single-family residences. • Allow the division or redivision of land into the maximum number of lots through the short subdivision process provided in chapter 58.17 RCW. Commerce provided the City with a grant to assist in the project. The ordinances under consideration address the first two actions. The third action is still in process. The City received a grant from the Washington State Department of Commerce to assist with this project. It should be noted that this is a joint project with Douglas County since the County adopts the City’s Zoning Code for application within the urban growth area.

II.PROPOSAL ANALYSIS A. Background: In 2019 the state Legislature passed Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill (E2SHB) 1923 encouraging cities planning under the Growth Management Act (GMA) to adopt actions to increase residential building capacity. To be eligible for grant funds, cities needed to select at least two objectives listed in the bill. East Wenatchee selected the following actions: •Authorize at least one duplex, triplex, or courtyard apartment on each parcel in one or more zoning districts that permit single-family residences unless a city documents a specific infrastructure or physical constraint that would make this requirement unfeasible for a particular parcel. •Authorize a duplex on each corner lot within all zoning districts that permit single-family residences. Exhibit 3 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 124 of 241 Staff Report - ZTA 2020-02 Amend EWMC & Design Standards February 23, 2021 Page 2 • Allow the division or redivision of land into the maximum number of lots through the short subdivision process provided in chapter 58.17 RCW. The City contracted with Makers Architecture and Urban Design, LLP to assist with the project to address the first two objectives. The amendment to the subdivision code will be addressed in a separate process. Makers audited the City’s Zoning Code and the Design Standards providing guidance regarding sections that should be amended. The Audit report and a draft of amendments to the Municipal Code and the Design Standards were presented to the Planning Commission for review and discussion at a workshop on August 25, 2020. Revised amendments to the Municipal Code and the Design Standards were presented to the Planning Commission for review and discussion at a workshop on October 27, 2020. Additional work has been completed by Staff and Makers. The revised amendments are attached as Exhibit A – East Wenatchee Municipal Code Amendments, and Exhibit B - Greater East Wenatchee Urban Growth Area Design Standards & Guidelines amendments. B. Comprehensive Plan: The Greater East Wenatchee Area Comprehensive Plan (2019) is the guidance document for land uses within the community and urban area. The following goal and policies are applicable to the proposal under consideration: Chapter 3 - Land Use Commercial Goal 4. Provide an opportunity for mixed-use areas in locations where residential and commercial land uses can develop in a manner that is complimentary to neighboring properties and/or will establish and sustain unique character areas for individual neighborhoods. Policies C-3 Adopt consistent design standards for development in commercial districts to insure that proposed uses are complimentary and compatible with adjacent land uses. The standards should address landscaping, pedestrian access, vehicular access, traffic control, signage and other amenities ensuring that commercial uses will enhance and contribute to the natural attractiveness of the community. C-7 Promote appropriately buffered multi-family residential and office development compatible with existing and potential commercial activities. Such uses should be permitted as transition between high-intensity uses (e.g. commercial) and low-intensity uses (e.g. single-family residential). C-11 Encourage and promote infill development and redevelopment efforts to revitalize and support established commercial areas. Chapter 4 - Housing. Goals 1. To provide for a sufficient number of safe, attractive and affordable residences for people of all income levels. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 125 of 241 Staff Report - ZTA 2020-02 Amend EWMC & Design Standards February 23, 2021 Page 3 2. To maintain quality of life in residential neighborhoods by protecting residential properties from excessive noise, visual, air and water pollution. 3. To provide for a variety of housing types and densities to ensure a range of affordable housing options for all segments of the community. 4. To provide opportunities for a mixture of commercial and residential land uses developed in a coordinated and complimentary manner in designated mixed use areas. Policies H-2 Provide flexibility in the development regulations to encourage infill development that is compatible with the character of the existing neighborhood and is adequately served by public facilities and services. H-3 Develop design standards that provide a transition between residential uses and high intensity commercial or industrial developments. H-4 Apply consistent standards in residential development to preserve residential character. H-7 Use the following criteria for the establishment of residential densities: a. Adjacent to commercial development, residential development should range from 8 to 24 dwelling units per acre and may include mixed-use type projects. b. Adjacent to the existing single-family districts, densities should range from 8 to 15 dwelling units per acre. H-8 Provide for multi-family densities near major activity centers, parks, commercial, and business centers, that are adequately serviced by transportation systems and utilities. H-10 Provide standards for cluster style development that ensures adequate provisions are made for open space and traffic circulation. H-11 Provide incentives and opportunities for choices of housing types, styles, quantities and innovative design including accessory dwellings and cottage style housing in residential neighborhoods. H-14 Promote the construction of affordable housing to meet the needs of all economic segments of the population by establishing incentives in development standards that will increase the production of low and moderate priced housing by private and public sector housing providers. H-18 Encourage the rehabilitation of aging housing stock. H-21 Residential development must meet the net density targets of 8 dwelling units per acre for single-family and 12 dwelling units per acre for multi- family. Net density does not include land set aside for public facilities, recreation, or critical areas. H-25 Adopt zoning, subdivision and design regulations to guide and facilitate development of mixed-use projects adjacent to and within commercial designations. The proposed amendments will expand the options and availability for more variety of housing within residential and commercial zoning district.

A. General. 1. Dimensions, slopes and details for all driveway and access easements connecting to a city street shall be as indicated on Figure 4-1 in EWMC 12.60.010. Driveways entering streets with curb and gutter shall meet the requirements contained within WSDOT Standard Plans as approved by the city engineer. 2. All new or revised driveways and accesses onto a city street (including temporary or construction accesses) require approval from the city engineer in accordance with the provisions of this chapter. B. Conditions for Approval of New Driveways and Access Easements. 1. Driveways directly providing access onto arterials and collectors shall be denied if alternate access is available. Access onto arterials and collectors may be permitted where no other alternative is available and is approved by the city engineer. 2. Where property has frontage on more than one street, driveways and accesses shall be limited to the lowest volume street. 3. Circular driveways shall have a minimum separation of 100 feet unless the lot width is insufficient to accommodate the 100-foot separation and the shorter distance is supported by an analysis prepared by a licensed engineer and approved by the city engineer demonstrating that the two access points are necessary and will not adversely impact traffic flow and circulation on the connecting street. 4. Driveways and access easements should be located at the greatest distance possible from an intersection of two streets. Driveways and access easements should not be located closer than 125 feet from the nearest edge of the intersection as measured from the closest point of the driveway edge when either intersecting street is an arterial or collector and 75 feet when the streets are both local access streets. The city engineer may issue a permit for a driveway or access easement not meeting city location and spacing criteria standards if a conforming connection is not attainable at the time of the permit application submittal and denial would leave the property without a reasonable means of connection to the street system. The city engineer may require the applicant to 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 168 of 241 MAKERS architecture and urban design Page 39 EW Code Amendments Draft_2-15-2021.docx provide a traffic impact analysis to support the request for a nonconforming driveway or access easement. Nonconforming driveway or access easement permits shall specify conditions or limits including, but not limited to, the following: a. Joint Use Connection. The city may issue a driveway or access easement connection permit requiring a legally enforceable joint use driveway when determined by the city engineer to be in the best interest of the city in maintaining the operational efficiency and safety of the street. b. Traffic Volume. The maximum vehicular usage of the connection shall be specified in the permit. c. Future Alternate Access. The permit shall specify that a conforming connection be constructed if and when future alternate means of access becomes available, and that the nonconforming connection must be removed. d. Users. The permit shall specify the properties to be served by the connection; and any other conditions as necessary to ensure the safe operation of the driveway or access easement and the intersecting street. 5. In areas zoned residential, the minimum separation of individual parcel driveways or accesses, as measured from the centerlines of the driveways or accesses, shall not exceed one-half of the sum of the accessed parcel frontage and each of the adjacent parcel frontages. Joint usage driveways may be required where sufficient spacing is not available. 6. Only one driveway per single residential or commercial unit will be permitted unless the applicant can demonstrate that additional driveways or accesses are needed due to the amount of traffic generated by the project, traffic distribution patterns, impacts to the city street system or public safety and there is sufficient space to accommodate the additional driveway or access. Joint usage driveways are encouraged. 7. All abandoned driveways shall be removed and restored by the applicant or agent. 8. Maintenance of driveways and approaches (and associated culverts where required) onto a city street shall be the responsibility of the applicant. C. Standards. 1. Common to All Driveways and Access Easements. a. Clear View Triangle. In addition to providing sufficient sight distances as required in subsection (C)(1)(c) of this section, a clear view triangle as described in Chapter 10.28 EWMC shall be maintained for vision safety purposes. b. Alignment. All driveways and access easement shall intersect the main street at an angle between 75 and 105 degrees, with 90 degrees being preferable. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 169 of 241 MAKERS architecture and urban design Page 40 EW Code Amendments Draft_2-15-2021.docx c. Sight Distance. Sufficient sight distances for vehicles to safely enter onto a public street or streets as well as for other vehicles on the street or streets to avoid accidents with entering or exiting vehicles is required for all driveways and access points. For all driveways and access easement, stopping sight distance in accordance with the AASHTO Green Book is required as follows: To calculate sight distance for existing streets serving a proposed driveway or access, first convert the posted speed to an operating speed as per Table 12.53.010-1: Table 12.53.010-1 Posted Speed Add for Operating Speed 20 mph 0 25 mph 0 30 mph 5 mph 35 mph 5 mph 40 mph 10 mph 45 mph and above 10 mph Secondly, use the operating speed and determine the minimum stopping sight distances from Table 12.53.010-2 (based on an approaching vehicle driver’s eye height of three and one-half feet and an object at the driveway of two feet). Table 12.53.010-2 Operating Speed (mph) Minimum Stopping Sight Distance (feet) 20 115 25 155 30 200 35 250 40 305 45 360 50 425 55 495 60 570 The grade of the street can also affect the minimum sight distance required. The following Table 12.53.010-3 provides the increase for downgrades and the decrease for upgrades modifiers. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 170 of 241 MAKERS architecture and urban design Page 41 EW Code Amendments Draft_2-15-2021.docx Table 12.53.010-3 Operating Speed (mph) Increase (feet) for Downgrades Decrease (feet) for Upgrades 3% 6% 9% 3% 6% 9% 20 to 30 10 20 30 — 10 20 31 to 40 20 40 70 10 20 30 41 to 50 30 70 — 20 30 — 51 to 60 50 110 — 30 50 — Situations with sight distances less than the above must be approved by the city engineer. In these cases, the applicant may also be required to obtain the services of a professional traffic engineer to assess the situation and provide written justification for lesser sight distances. Sight distances shall be measured from a point 10 feet back of the edge of shoulder or back of sidewalk each way along the edge of the traveled way of the main street as shown in the figure below. d. Drainage. Approaches shall be constructed in such a manner as to minimize the runoff from a driveway or other access easement onto the main street. All approaches at points where there is an existing roadside ditch shall be constructed with a culvert pipe meeting the specifications of the city engineer. e. Surfacing within Right-of-Way. That portion of a driveway or access easement connecting to a paved public street that is within the right-of- way of the public street shall be surfaced with a minimum of two and one- half inches of compacted asphalt concrete pavement or equivalent surfacing material to the street. f. Maintenance. Maintenance of all driveways and access easement including approaches to public streets shall be the responsibility of the owner(s). All shared driveways and access easements shall have a maintenance agreement recorded with the final project approval that 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 171 of 241 MAKERS architecture and urban design Page 42 EW Code Amendments Draft_2-15-2021.docx specifies consistent maintenance in accordance with the approved project plans. 2. Driveways and Joint Usage Driveways. Driveways and joint usage driveways serving no more than two lots have no minimum width or surfacing requirements beyond requirements of subsection (C)(1) of this section. The minimum width of a driveway or a joint usage driveway is 20 feet. In addition to the provisions in subsection (C)(1) driveways and joint use driveways must meet the following standards: a. Driveways providing access to one single-family home should have a maximum improved width of 20 feet and a minimum improved width of 10 feet. b. Joint use driveways should have a minimum improved width of 15 feet and a maximum improved width of 30 feet. The width of the easement shall be sufficient to accommodate the driveway surfacing, any required storm water drainage features, and any utilities. In no case shall the easement be less than 30 20 feet in width. The full width of the easement shall be clear of sight obstructions to a height of 13 feet six inches. The maximum grade shall be 12 percent. c. All driveways shall be improved with a minimum of six inches of compacted gravel base, crushed surfacing base course or crushed surfacing top course. The surfacing shall be concrete, asphalt or an alternative treatment providing surfacing capable of supporting a typical residential vehicle load. The use of pervious surfacing is encouraged. d. All driveways greater than 150 feet in length shall be improved with an approved turnaround for emergency vehicles such as a cul-de-sac or hammerhead unless the fire marshal determines that alternative access for fire protection is available. See Figure 4-2 in EWMC 12.60.010 for acceptable turnaround designs. 3. Access Easements. Property accesses serving no more than four lots are access easements. Unless an alternate approved emergency vehicle access is provided, access easements shall also serve as an emergency vehicle access. Access easements are privately owned and maintained by the property owners being served and are not the responsibility of the city. Access easements shall comply with EWMC 15.16.010 and have the following minimum requirements: a. The minimum width of the tract or easement for an access easement shall be 30 20 feet for access easements if no fire hydrant is located along the easement. Thirty feet of easement width is required if a fire hydrant is located along the easement. b. The minimum base shall be six inches of compacted gravel base, crushed surfacing base course or crushed surfacing top course. The surfacing shall be concrete, asphalt, or other approved surfacing capable of supporting the imposed load of fire apparatus weighing at least 75,000 pounds. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 172 of 241 MAKERS architecture and urban design Page 43 EW Code Amendments Draft_2-15-2021.docx c. The base and surfacing shall provide a minimum unobstructed width of 20 feet. Where a fire hydrant is located on an access easement, the minimum unobstructed surface width shall be 26 feet. d. Suitable drainage in the form of ditches and cross culverts shall be provided along the full length of the access easement. Any bridges or drainage structures shall meet the requirements of Chapter 12.55 EWMC. e.

This information is also helpful to determine if available avoidance, minimization or compensatory mitigation measures will address the probable significant impacts or if an environmental impact statement will be prepared to further analyze the proposal. Instructions for applicants: This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Please answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. You may need to consult with an agency specialist or private consultant for some questions. You may use “not applicable” or "does not apply" only when you can explain why it does not apply and not when the answer is unknown. You may also attach or incorporate by reference additional studies reports. Complete and accurate answers to these questions often avoid delays with the SEPA process as well as later in the decision- making process. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact. Instructions for Lead Agencies: Please adjust the format of this template as needed. Additional information may be necessary to evaluate the existing environment, all interrelated aspects of the proposal and an analysis of adverse impacts. The checklist is considered the first but not necessarily the only source of information needed to make an adequate threshold determination. Once a threshold determination is made, the lead agency is responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the checklist and other supporting documents. Use of checklist for nonproject proposals: For nonproject proposals (such as ordinances, regulations, plans and programs), complete the applicable parts of sections A and B plus the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (part D). Please completely answer all questions that apply and note that the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal," "proponent," and "affected geographic area," respectively. The lead agency may exclude (for non-projects) questions in Part B - Environmental Elements –that do not contribute meaningfully to the analysis of the proposal. A. Background 1.

Amendments are proposed for the Greater East Wenatchee Urban Growth Area Design Standards and Guidelines; the East Wenatchee Municipal Code in Title 17 Zoning in Chapters 17.08 Definitions, 17.24 Residential Low Density District, 17.28 Residential Medium Density District, 17.32 Residential High Density/Office District 17.34 Commercial Zoning District Land Use Matrix, and 17.72 General Regulations; as well as Title 12 Streets, Sidewalks and Public Places in Chapter 12.53 Driveways, Access Easement, Pedestrian Facilities, Walks and Trails. The Code and Design Standard amendments are intended to clean up some inconsistencies, provide more options for design of vehicle accesses, update terms and conditions that are out of 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 180 of 241 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 181 of 241 SEPA Environmental checklist (WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 Page 4 of 5 urban growth area. As such emissions to air from additional traffic and production of noise from traffic and people living in close proximity is anticipated. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce such increases are: The city and county have noise measurements to ensure that neighboring properties are protected. The code also includes enforcement measures. Any potential for increases in noise, because of development at any scale, would be analyzed and mitigated on a case-by-case basis as part of the general review as development occurs. 2. How would the proposal be likely to affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life? The proposed amendments will not result in direct impacts to plants, animals, fish or marine life. This proposal is a nonproject action that will be applicable within the urban area. Landscaping requirements will address plants. Critical areas regulations address potential impacts to fish and animals. Proposed measures to protect or conserve plants, animals, fish, or marine life are: Not applicable to the non-project action. Any potential for impacts because of development, would be evaluated and mitigated accordingly in the review and permitting phase of any land use development project. 3. How would the proposal be likely to deplete energy or natural resources? As a nonproject action, there will be no direct impacts. The increase in density that may result from the application of these provisions will likely concentrate residential development in areas already characterized by urban growth. Additional need for energy may be a result, however the concentration of development will likely reduce the necessity for major expansion of energy facilities. Proposed measures to protect or conserve energy and natural resources are: The proposal amendments are intended to increase the capacity within the existing urban growth area. This is anticipated to reduce the need to expand the urban growth area into neighboring resource lands by providing more capacity within the existing residential areas for additional housing options. Energy efficiency is a requirement for all occupied structures. Residential developments are required to comply with the State Energy Code. 4. How would the proposal be likely to use or affect environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated (or eligible or under study) for governmental protection; such as parks, wilderness, wild and scenic rivers, threatened or endangered species habitat, historic or cultural sites, wetlands, floodplains, or prime farmlands? The proposal amendments could have a potential benefit for preserving environmentally sensitive areas, critical areas, and farmland. The proposal is intended to increase the capacity within the existing urban growth area to accommodate the growth projected over the 20-year planning horizon. By increasing options for type, style, and number of dwelling units, these provisions are anticipated to reduce the need to expand the urban growth area thereby preserving lands for critical areas and farmland. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 182 of 241 SEPA Environmental checklist (WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 Page 5 of 5 Proposed measures to protect such resources or to avoid or reduce impacts are: See above, no impacts are anticipated. 5. How would the proposal be likely to affect land and shoreline use, including whether it would allow or encourage land or shoreline uses incompatible with existing plans? The proposed amendments follow the recommendations of the comprehensive plan and are intended to implement the goals and policies in the plan related to: • providing flexibility in the design and density of housing; • increased potential for infill development; • encourage the provision of housing affordable to all economic groups; and • ensure that development within single-family neighborhoods is compatible with the character of the neighborhood. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts are: None are necessary. 6. How would the proposal be likely to increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities? As a nonproject action, there will be no direct impacts. The increase in density that may result from the application of these provisions will likely concentrate residential development in areas already characterized by urban growth. This will likely result in increased use of existing transportation systems as well as extension of transportation facilities to serve newly developed areas. This potential new development will increase the demand for public services and utilities. Proposed measures to reduce or respond to such demand(s) are: Additional need for services is anticipated, however the proposals are intended to encourage infill development. The concentration of development within the existing urban area will likely reduce the necessity for major expansion of facilities although system upgrades may be necessary. As development occurs, the need for upgrades are evaluated on a project basis. Developers are responsible for upgrades necessary to serve new development. 7. Identify, if possible, whether the proposal may conflict with local, state, or federal laws or requirements for the protection of the environment. This proposal is a nonproject action and would not conflict with local, state, or federal laws or requirements for the protection of the environment. Development projects would be evaluated at the time of application submittal and must meet adopted standards and requirements for the protection of the environment. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 183 of 241 CITY OF EAST WENATCHEE COUNCIL AGENDA BILL To: Mayor and Council. From/Presenter: Lori Barnett, Community Development Director Subject: Public hearing regarding the potential imposition of a 1/10th of one percent sales and use tax to provide a funding source to address affordable housing and housing related services. Date: March 16, 2021 I. Summary Title: Public hearing to obtain comments regarding the potential for the City Council to use their councilmanic option to impose of a 1/10th of one percent sales and use tax within the City to provide a funding source to address homelessness, affordable housing, mental health services, and housing related services in accordance with RCW 82.14.530. II. Background/History: RCW 82.14.530 allows cities and counties to levy a 1/10th of 1 percent sales and use tax to fund housing and housing related services. In 2020, the Legislature passed an amendment to include a councilmanic option in addition to the voter approved process. Counties wishing to use that option had until September 30, 2020 to levy the tax. If the county took no action, the cities could utilize the option. Douglas County has not levied the tax. The revenue must be used for affordable housing, housing-related programs, and behavioral health services for persons with incomes at or below 60% of the area median within any of the following groups: • Persons with behavioral health disabilities; • Senior citizens; • Persons with disabilities; • Domestic violence survivors; • Homeless, or at risk of becoming homeless, families with children; or • Unaccompanied homeless youth or young adults. This proposal was discussed at a Council Workshop on August 18, 2020 and in a more in-depth Workshop on February 25, 2021. The major factors supporting the imposition of this tax is to provide funding for: (1) a low-barrier shelter (sleep center) to meet the needs of our unsheltered homeless population and (2) to provide a stable funding source for affordable housing, behavioral health and housing- related services into the future. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 184 of 241 This proposal is also being considered by the City of Wenatchee. It is estimated that the revenue for East Wenatchee could be $400,000 per year and for Wenatchee $800,000 to $900,000 per year. Impact on taxpayer: As an example, a $20,000 purchase would increase the sales tax collected by $20. III. Recommended Action: Hold public hearing IV. Exhibits: Financial Data: Expenditure Required Amount Budgeted Appropriation Required $ 0 $ 0 $ 0 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 185 of 241 CITY OF EAST WENATCHEE COUNCIL AGENDA BILL To: Mayor and Council. From/Presenter: Lori Barnett, Community Development Director Subject: Ordinance 2021-04 imposing an additional sales and use tax of 1/10th of 1% for affordable housing and related services. Adding chapter 4.12 to the City Code as authorized by RCW 82.14.530. Date: March 16, 2021 I. Summary Title: An Ordinance of the City of East Wenatchee imposing an additional sales and use tax of one-tenth of one percent for affordable housing and related services as authorized by RCW 82.14.530 by adding Chapter 4.12 to the East Wenatchee Municipal Code, providing for severability and establishing an effective date. II. Background/History: RCW 82.14.530, enacted in 2015, allows cities and counties to levy a 1/10th of 1 percent sales and use tax to fund housing and housing related services if approved by a majority of voters. Several jurisdictions took advantage of that option. Ellensburg is one example of a city near us that used the voter process. In 2020, the Legislature amended RCW 82.14.530 to include a councilmanic option in addition to the voter process. Counties wishing to use that option had until September 30, 2020 to enact the tax. If the county chose not to, the cities could utilize the option. This proposal was discussed at a Council Workshop on August 18, 2020 and in a more in-depth Workshop on February 25, 2021. This proposal is a joint effort with the City of Wenatchee which is also proposing to levy the tax. This funding source will benefit the community by providing a locally controlled source of revenue for the development of affordable housing and housing-related services. Who could be served? Affordable housing and housing-related programs provided to persons within any of the following groups if their income is at or below 60% of the area median income. • Persons with behavioral health disabilities; • Senior citizens; • Persons with disabilities; • Domestic violence survivors; • Homeless, or at risk of becoming homeless, families with children; or • Unaccompanied homeless youth or young adults. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 186 of 241 Need: This community is facing a shortage of affordable housing and housing available for homeless individuals. Homelessness. Phase 1 would address homeless housing and services. The January 2020 Point-in-Time (PIT) count reported • 84 unsheltered homeless adults - meaning they are living on the streets or in a place not meant for human habitation. • 43 of those were considered to be “chronically homeless” - an increase from 36 reported in the 2019 PIT Count. “Chronically homeless” are those who have lived on the streets an extended time (12 months or more) and have a disability or qualify under the group categories mentioned above. This option is being recommended to initially provide funding to establish an emergency shelter to house homeless individuals based upon the “sleep center” model that several jurisdictions have developed. The proposed “sleep center” style will include on-site support services to help clients access health and human services and transition to permanent housing. The Washington State Department of Commerce provided a grant for this facility. Moses Lake built a sleep center in 2020 and has seen a high degree of success moving folks from homelessness to permanent housing. An article specific to their project has been included in this packet. A low-barrier shelter is needed to comply with the Martin vs. City of Boise ruling: The court deemed it unconstitutional to prohibit the homeless from sleeping or camping on public property unless the community had a meaningful alternative, such as low-barrier shelter. Existing shelters in the East Wenatchee/Wenatchee area do not qualify as “low-barrier”. Additionally, the existing congregate style shelters are not a long-term solution to housing the homeless. In addition to the potential transmission of diseases, such as COVID-19, single room facilities have been proven to be safer and healthier emotionally and physically for clients. Local business owners and local government jurisdictions incur significant costs while responding to issues involving unsheltered homeless individuals: • Confluence Health incurred a loss of approximately $2.4 million for 25 homeless patients during 2017 - 2019. • East Wenatchee Police Department - 488 calls for service and 105 arrests involving homeless individuals. * 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 187 of 241 • Wenatchee Police Department - 847 calls for service and 58 arrests involving homeless individuals. * *Note: It should be noted that the law enforcement data may not be consistent between jurisdictions due to the coding of calls. • Douglas County spent over $45,000 in 2020, filled 3,379 garbage bags totaling 31,425 pounds of garbage, cleaning up 73 inactive camps and 27 active camps along SR 28 and the Columbia River. • Wenatchee's Park Department estimates costs to respond to homeless issues in 2020 was approximately $280,000. Affordable Housing. Phase 2 would provide a stable funding source for affordable housing construction. Housing is considered affordable if an individual or family is paying 30% or less of their income for housing costs. • 41% of renters and 23% of homeowners in East Wenatchee are paying 30% or more for housing. • 36% of renters and 26% of homeowners in Douglas County are paying 30% or more for housing It should be noted that this data is from the 2014-2018 American Community Survey (ACS). It is likely the numbers are higher today. Increased housing costs. The tight market and high cost, makes it difficult to find homes for low-income buyers to rent or purchase. In East Wenatchee single- family homes make up 56% of the total housing units in the City compared to 66% in Douglas County. Sales price comparison for homes in the Wenatchee market area: Median: • 2017 - $290,000 • 2020 - $370,000 Average: • 2017 - $317,820 • 2020 - $415,873 Homes with list prices of $300,000 or less: • November 2017, 70 homes or 32% of the total inventory • November 2020, 24 homes or 14% of the total inventory Rental vacancy rates continue to be low (2.1% to 3%) which tends to drive rents up based upon the typical supply and demand model. The table below compares the vacancy rates from the last two ACS reporting periods. A 5% vacancy rate is considered a healthy rate. Source Douglas County East Wenatchee ACS 2007-11 13%7% ACS 2018 5-Year Estimte 3.1%2.1% 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 188 of 241 What will it cost? As the table below shows, for a purchase of $20,000 of taxable goods and services, the sales and use tax would increase by $20. The benefit of this approach is that all consumers pay the tax, not just the residents of each city. And again, this will be a locally controlled revenue source that is targeted to affordable housing, mental health services, and housing-related uses. III.

RCW 35A.11.020 and RCW 35A.12.190 authorize the City Council to adopt ordinances of all kinds to regulate its municipal affairs and appropriate to the good government of the City. 3.2.

The homeless housing park at SR 17 and Broadway in Moses Lake is owned by the city of Moses Lake and is operated by HopeSource. HopeSource is a community action agency that operates a variety of programs such as Supportive Services for Veteran Families, the Youth Homeless Demonstration Project, and provides support services to coordinate care. Several agencies are involved when it comes to caring for those who utilize the shelters, they include: Grant Integrated Services, the state Department of Social and Health Services, Compass Career Solutions, and the Housing Authority of Grant County. Also involved is the North Central Washington Recovery Coalition; it’s an organization providing support to recovering addicts by hosting Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous meetings. The city of Moses Lake says these wrap-around services help people transition out of homeless, and transitioned they have, according to those who look after the center. Since opening the Sleep Center on Dec. 11, 2020, the city says 70 people have received shelter, with a cumulative total of over 650 nights of shelter provided. In addition, 11 individuals who have utilized the sleep center have been transitioned out of homelessness as of Feb. 23, 2021. Also, more data shows that four guests worked through HopeSource to Exhibit 2 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 195 of 241 attain stable housing and three of them are now employed. Furthermore, the city says three patrons entered a rehabilitation program and got stable housing after completing their rehabilitation. “The Sleep Center offers shelter and so much more to those that are experiencing hardships and homelessness,” said Taylor Burton, the City of Moses Lake’s Housing and Grants Coordinator. “The Sleep Center is a program designed to support those that want to change their lives and begin the road to ending homelessness. This program may be fledgling, but the potential to end homelessness in our community is great. With the continued support of the community and the amazing work of HopeSource, there is hope that change can be accomplished.” Michael Guertin and his pregnant fiancé, Sara Byrd, say they found housing thanks to the services provided at the Moses Lake Sleep Center. “We ended up homeless due to a mental breakdown, we had nowhere to go and we ended up at the sleep center,” Michael said. “It was a lot of good help. We used it as long as we needed to and now, we are doing a lot better.” Michael and fiancé went on to tout the amenities provided at the homeless center. The Wallings had spent four nights at the shelter; they say they found better housing in a matter of days thanks to the help coordinated by HopeSource. Their daughters were being cared for elsewhere while they stayed there; the sleeping center has a strict 'no minors' policy. “It’s been an uphill battle until we got into the sleep center, it’s been a god-send, that’s for sure, we couldn’t have done it without them,” they said. “We highly recommend it to anyone on the street who is struggling.” Jerome Mead is another person who discovered the resources available to him after spending time at the shelter. “I would still be out there in the freezing cold…I’m so grateful for them,” he said. “The homeless center has guided me the way to go to treatment and get better, happy to start a new journey, a new chapter in my life. I recommend anyone who needs it to come and get the help and support,” Mead stated.

From/Presenter: Lori Barnett, Community Development Director Subject: Resolution 2021-05 considering the approval of the 2019 CDBG Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report. Date: March 16, 2021 I. Summary Title: A Resolution of the City of East Wenatchee, Washington, adopting the “City of East Wenatchee 2019 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report” in accordance with the requirements of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development regulations at 24 CFR Part 91, and establishing an effective date. II. Background/History: The CAPER must be prepared, reviewed by the public, and submitted to HUD on an annual basis within 90 days of the end of the program year. Due to the pandemic, HUD provided an extension to 180 days. The program year ended on September 31, 2021. The 2019 CAPER describes how the City used the CDBG program funds during that program year. The original formula allocation for 2019 was $135,695. Those funds were allocated for: • $27,000 for City CDBG planning and administrative activities • $108,695 for the Columbia Valley Housing Association down payment assistance program. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic a special allocation of CDBG funding came through the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) passed by Congress. The first round of CDBG-CV was $83,927. The City amended the 2019 Annual Action Plan on May 19, 2020, to identify the use of the new funds and to reallocate of $50,000 of unspent down payment assistance program. The new 2019 allocation included • $27,000 for City CDBG planning and administrative activities. • $58,695 to the Columbia Valley Housing Association down payment assistance program. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 200 of 241 • $133,927 Microenterprise business grants of up to $5,000 grants administered by the Chelan Douglas Port Authority. The City received an additional $114,862 (CDBG-CV3). The 2019 Annual Action Plan was amended for a second time on February 2, 2021, to allocate the new funds. The amended plan included the following new programs: • Additional $5,000 for City CDBG planning and administrative activities • $15,000 for the Chelan & Douglas County COVID-19 Food Assistance Program. • $94,862 to the Community Action Council for emergency income payments for rent and utilities. The following expenditures occurred during the program year. • Administration & Planning Funds: The City expended $26,979. The funds were primarily used for development of the new 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, the first amendment to the 2019 Annual Action Plan, and developing the microenterprise grant program. • Down payment assistance program: The Columbia Valley Housing Association was able to close on one property expending $35,000 for downpayment assistance and closing costs. Since funds were still available from the 2018 Program Year allocation, no 2019 funds were used. This program has been heavily impacted by the lack of inventory of homes for sale within a price range affordable to low-income individuals. • Microenterprise grants: The City executed a subrecipient agreement with the Chelan-Douglas Port Authority to administer this program. Two businesses received Micro- enterprise grants for a total expenditure of $10,000. • Food Assistance Program: This program started on February 3, 2021. No funds have been expended as yet. There are other activities listed in the CAPER including efforts to address homelessness and opportunities to facilitate housing development. Those activities did not involve CDBG funds, however they do address some of the goals of the CDBG program. A combined notice of availability and notice of public hearing was published in the Wenatchee World on February 27,2021, to initiate the required 15-day comment period. The notice and a copy of the Draft 2019 CAPER was also posted on the City web site. No comments have been received. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 201 of 241 I.

The 2020 Annual Action Plan allocated the fund to the following projects: • $27,000 for City CDBG planning and administrative activities • $108,695 for the Columbia Valley Housing Association down payment assistance program. Direct assistance for up to 5 households. On March 13, 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic was declared a national emergency. A special source of funding was provided through the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) passed by Congress. These funds are intended to prevent, prepare for and respond to the coronavirus pandemic. The first round of funds for the CDBG program was identified as “CDBG-CV”. On April 13, 2020 the City was notified of a special allocation of $83,927. The 2019 Annual Action Plan was amended to allocate the funds. Resolution 2020-16 was approved by Council on May 19, 2020, amending the CDBG 2019 Annual Action Plan in response to the special allocation of CDBG-CV funds. Included in that amendment was the reallocation of $50,000 of unspent 2019 CDBG program year funds that had previously been allocated for the down payment assistance program. The amended plan included the following programs: • $27,000 for City CDBG planning and administrative activities • $58,695 to the Columbia Valley Housing Association down payment assistance program. Direct assistance for up to 3 households. This represented a $50,000 reduction in funding for that program. • $133,927 Microenterprise business grants – it was estimated that up to 26 businesses could be provided with $5,000 grants. On September 11, 2020 the City was notified of a special allocation of an additional $114,862 designated as CDBG-CV3. The 2019 Annual Action Plan was amended for a second time to allocate the new funds. Resolution 2021-03 was approved by Council on February 2, 2021, amending the CDBG 2019 Annual Action Plan in response to the special allocation of CDBG-CV3 funds. The amended plan included the following programs: • $5,000 for City CDBG planning and administrative activities 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 206 of 241 CAPER 2 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) • $15,000 for the Chelan & Douglas County COVID-19 Food Assistance Program. The program is administered by Serve Wenatchee, a private non-profit, faith-based organization and the Town Toyota Center. Chelan Douglas Health District, the City of Wenatchee, and the City of East Wenatchee are providing the funding for the program. Boxes of food are prepared and delivered to persons or families that are required to quarantine or isolate as a result of exposure to COVID-19. This program is meeting an urgent need created by a serious and immediate threat to the health and welfare of the community. • $94,862 to the Community Action Council for emergency income payments for rent and utilities. This program provides funds to low- and moderate-income individuals and families who are impacted by COVID-19. The qualifying income limit is 80% of area median income. Funds will be available to pay up to six consecutive months of rental assistance or utility payments. The funds are paid directly to the landlord or the utility company on behalf of the qualifying tenant. Administration & Planning Funds: The City expended $26,979 in administrative costs primarily used for development of the new 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan, the first amendment to the 2019 Annual Action Plan and developing the microenterprise grant program. Down payment assistance program: The Columbia Valley Housing Association was able to close on one property in 2020 expending $35,000 for downpayment assistance and closing costs. That project was charged to the balance remaining in the 2018 Program Year allocation. This program has been heavily impacted by the lack of inventory of homes for sale within a price range affordable to low-income individuals. Since 2017, the median sales price for homes in the Wenatchee market area has increased from $290,000 to $370,00 with the average increasing from $317,820 to $415,873 in 2020. Microenterprise grants: The City executed a subrecipient agreement with the Chelan-Douglas Port Authority to administer this program. They were previously awarded funds from the state for grants to businesses impacted by the pandemic. Interest in the CDBG Microenterprise program has been low. Two businesses received Micro-enterprise grants for a total expenditure of $10,000. Requirement for CDBG program eligibility are more stringent than the state programs. Food Assistance Program: This program started on February 3, 2021. No funds have been expended as yet. Emergency income payments for rent and utilities: This program has not started yet. It is anticipated that a contract with Community Action Council will be formalized in March or April. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 207 of 241 CAPER 3 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) Comparison of the proposed versus actual outcomes for each outcome measure submitted with the consolidated plan and explain, if applicable, why progress was not made toward meeting goals and objectives. 91.520(g) Goal Category Source / Amount Indicator Unit of Measure Expected – Strategic Plan Actual – Strategic Plan Percent Complete Expected – Program Year Actual – Program Year Percent Complete Increase and preserve affordable housing Affordable Housing CDBG: $59,927 Rental units rehabilitated Household Housing Unit 18 18 100.00% Increase and preserve affordable housing Affordable Housing CDBG: $35,000 Direct Financial Assistance to Homebuyers Households Assisted 3 0 0.33% 5 1 20.00% Support businesses impacted by pandemic CDBG: $10,000 Business served Business Assisted 26 0 2 7.7% Revitalize Neighborhoods and Community Public Improvements CDBG: $ Public Facility or Infrastructure Activities other than Low/Moderate Income Housing Benefit Persons Assisted 3395 6790 200.00% Table 1 - Accomplishments – Program Year & Strategic Plan to Date Assess how the jurisdiction’s use of funds, particularly CDBG, addresses the priorities and specific objectives identified in the plan, giving special attention to the highest priority activities identified. The primary basis for allocation of CDBG resources is to serve the needs of low and moderately low income households, business, and individuals. Consolidated Plan strategies developed through the community planning process reflect that a significant amount of funds are targeted to projects that benefit the low to moderately low income households. The funds that have been expended have benefitted low to moderate households or businesses. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 208 of 241 CAPER 4 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) CR-10 - Racial and Ethnic composition of families assisted Describe the families assisted (including the racial and ethnic status of families assisted). 91.520(a) CDBG White 2 Black or African American 0 Asian 0 American Indian or American Native 0 Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander 0 Total 0 Hispanic 5 Not Hispanic 0 Table 2 – Table of assistance to racial and ethnic populations by source of funds Narrative The downpayment assistance program assisted one family with 5 members that self-identified as Hispanic.

The City often uses CDBG funds to leverage other federal, state, local and private resources to meet housing and community development needs. While matching funds are not currently required for the City’s CDBG program, the City anticipates that most major projects will be funded primarily through non-CDBG resources. The Columbia Valley Housing Association downpayment assistance program leverages very little CDBG funding with a significant private investment. The ratio of CDBG funds to private funds is approximately $1 of CDBG to over $9 of private funding. The microenterprise grant program requires no match and is responding to the economic impacts attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic. It should be noted that the Chelan-Douglas Port Authority is not charging any fees for the administration of the program. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 211 of 241 CAPER 7 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) CR-20 - Affordable Housing 91.520(b) Evaluation of the jurisdiction's progress in providing affordable housing, including the number and types of families served, the number of extremely low-income, low-income, moderate-income, and middle-income persons served. One-Year Goal Actual Number of Homeless households to be provided affordable housing units 0 0 Number of Non-Homeless households to be provided affordable housing units 5 1 Number of Special-Needs households to be provided affordable housing units 0 0 Total 5 1 Table 5 – Number of Households One-Year Goal Actual Number of households supported through Rental Assistance 0 0 Number of households supported through The Production of New Units 0 0 Number of households supported through Rehab of Existing Units 0 0 Number of households supported through Acquisition of Existing Units 5 1 Total 5 1 Table 6 – Number of Households Supported Discuss the difference between goals and outcomes and problems encountered in meeting these goals. The overall goal of the community planning and development programs available from the City with CDBG funding is to assist low and moderate income households in obtaining affordable housing. Unfortunately, a review of the projects and activities implemented in program year 2019 demonstrate that the City has made limited progress in fulfilling its goals. The downpayment homeowner assistance program has been adversely impacted by the lack of inventory of homes for sale within a price range affordable to low-income individuals. East Wenatchee is a small community. Single-family homes only make up 56% of the total housing units in the City compared to 66% in Douglas County. In November of 2017, there were 70 homes for sale that had a list price of $300,000 or less, representing 32% of the total inventory. In November of 2020, there were only 24 homes listed at $300,000 or less, representing 14% of the inventory of homes on the market. The tight market and high cost, makes it difficult to find homes for low-income buyers. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 212 of 241 CAPER 8 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) Discuss how these outcomes will impact future annual action plans. It will be important to monitor the progress for this program to determine whether the funds should be reallocated. The City will work closely with HUD staff to improve performance in timely implementation of identified community development strategies and CDBG. The City did not hinder Consolidated Plan implementation by action or willful inaction. Again, the market conditions have impacted the homeownership program.

The City does not directly fund homeless outreach. Outreach is conducted through the work of organizations that operate in East Wenatchee and Wenatchee providing housing and housing support programs serving homeless and those at-risk of becoming homeless. East Wenatchee has no housing programs and relies upon other local agencies. Also, East Wenatchee Community Development Department staff regularly attend meetings of the Chelan Douglas Homeless Advisory Committee. That committee includes representatives from various housing and service providers including state and local government agencies, non- profits, local landlords, and faith-based organizations. Elected officials from the City of East Wenatchee are members of the Chelan Douglas Homeless Housing Task Force. City staff also participate in the meetings. That group is responsible for the development of the local homeless housing strategic plan and recommends awards for the distribution of the Chelan-Douglas Counties Homeless Housing fund (RCW 36.22.179 and RCW 36.22.1791), City of Wenatchee Low-Income Housing funds, Consolidated Homeless Grant (CHG), Housing & Essential Needs Grant Funds (HEN) and Emergency Solutions Grant funds (ESG). The funding is allocated using a competitive grant application process that is typically on a 2-year cycle. The city of Wenatchee is the lead entity for this process. The 2020-2021 Homeless Housing Funding Awards allocated $92,000 to direct Homeless Outreach and $688,000 for the Coordinated Entry/Diversion and Training Programs. All of the programs are outreach efforts directed toward assessing the needs of the homeless and helping folks find alternatives to living on the streets. Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons. Homeless housing funding awards were granted for emergency shelter operations and support in the amount of $648,427. The emergency shelter programs include year-round shelters, severe-weather shelters, and hotel voucher programs. The hotel voucher program was funded to provide an alternative to emergency shelters when the typical shelter environment will not work for the family such as families with children or persons with disabilities. Local transitional housing providers were awarded $563,059. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 214 of 241 CAPER 10 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: likely to become homeless after being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); and, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs. Homeless Housing Funding Awards were allocated for Prevention in the amount of $679,732. Prevention programs include legal assistance to help a tenant work out a program to avoid a pending eviction. Funding was awarded to an agency that provides transitional housing for individuals that have been released from a correctional facility. Rental assistance programs from various agencies were awarded $583,774. The program helps tenants pay rent up to a maximum of 2 years. Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again. Homeless Housing Funding Awards were allocated for Rapid Rehousing program in the amount of $640,237. The Rapid Rehousing services include a landlord liaison program. Some landlords are hesitant to rent to individuals or families with poor rental histories. This program allows landlords to sign up to participate knowing they will have a support system. If there is a problem with the tenant, the landlord can contact the agency. There is also a mitigation reserve that can pay for damages over and above the security deposit. Permanent Supportive Housing projects were awarded $629,734. This includes an award to a recently completed project to help them pay down the debt for the facility. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 215 of 241 CAPER 11 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) CR-30 - Public Housing 91.220(h); 91.320(j) Actions taken to address the needs of public housing. In 2002, the city of East Wenatchee executed an interlocal governmental cooperation agreement (ILA) with the Housing Authority of Chelan County and the City of Wenatchee. The ILA allows the Housing Authority to operate, under limited circumstances, within the city limits. An East Wenatchee city councilmember serves on that agency’s board of directors. The Housing Authority operates an apartment complex that includes 35 year-round units for low-income farmworkers. The Housing Authority also operates the Section 8 Tenant Based Rental Assistance Program with 494 vouchers. Approximately 150 of the participants in the program reside in East Wenatchee. They also have 47 HUD Veteran’s Assistance Vouchers. The Housing Authority has a range of services to address the needs of their tenants. Actions taken to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership No activities or actions were taken by the city. However, the Housing Authority offers their tenants and clients a self-sufficiency education program which includes information on managing money, caring for a home, and life skills. Actions taken to provide assistance to troubled PHAs. The Housing Authority is not a troubled PHA. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 216 of 241 CAPER 12 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) CR-35 - Other Actions 91.220(j)-(k); 91.320(i)-(j) Actions taken to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment. 91.220 (j); 91.320 (i) The City initiated a project to audit the Zoning Code, Subdivision Code, and Greater East Wenatchee Area Design Standards & Guidelines to identify barriers and opportunities to expand the type of housing that would be allowed in the single-family zoning district and other districts that allow housing. Code amendments are in the process of being adopted that would allow duplexes and triplexes in the single-family zoning district. More variety in housing types is a proven method of expanding affordable housing options.

A Councilmember sits on the Housing Authority Board. The Mayor, a Councilmember, and Community Development Director regularly attend meetings of the Chelan Douglas Local Homeless Housing Task Force. The Task Force serves as a decision-making body providing oversight, direction, and guidance for the development and implementation of the Chelan-Douglas Homeless Plan. The Task Force is responsible for establishing and overseeing the local process for applying for, reviewing, and prioritizing project applications for funding allocations to support the continued reduction and prevention of homelessness in Chelan and Douglas counties. 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 217 of 241 CAPER 13 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) City staff also attend meetings of the Chelan Douglas Homeless Advisory Committee. That Committee provides an opportunity for housing and service providers to “spot-light” their programs fostering coordination among agencies and bringing more understanding of the services and facilities that are available to assist those who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. Additionally, staff and an elected official participate in the Our Valley Our Future planning efforts as members of the original Core Team. Our Valley first initiated a conversation with the community in fall 2015, asking thousands of residents what they saw as the region’s core values, biggest strengths, weaknesses and challenges, and best ideas. This dialogue was accomplished through interviews with community leaders, public surveys, presentations to local organizations, public open houses, and workshops for the wider community. All of the information and ideas obtained from residents was collected, compiled and analyzed forming the building blocks of a long-term vision and action plan that was produced. This plan is organized into six focus areas and presented in a matrix format listing 28 strategies, 149 actions and 7 major projects in all. The plan has been updated annually to highlight projects that have been completed and to add projects requested by the community. These projects drive the vision forward and produce positive outcomes for the region. Participation in homeless housing outreach activities and regional planning efforts provide City staff and elected officials with valuable institutional knowledge of the needs of the community. Actions taken to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies. 91.220(k); 91.320(j) City staff regularly attend meetings of the Chelan Douglas Homeless Housing Advisory Committee.

Summary Title: RH2 Engineering Task Authorization No. 1 associated with additional stormwater and asphalt work in conjunction with the Douglas County Sewer District’s Kentucky View Lift Station Phase II project. II. Background/History: The Douglas County Sewer District (Sewer District) identified a need to expand their sanitary sewer system and started the first phase of their Kentucky View Lift Station project in 2016. This project installed a new sewer lift station and replaced existing sanitary sewer pipe in 4th Street SE located east of S Iowa Ave. Now the Sewer District is executing phase II of the Kentucky View Lift Station project, which continues to replace the existing 4th Street SE sanitary line from S Iowa Ave west. Public Works staff have identified two (2) City items that can be addressed through partnering with the Sewer District’s Kentucky View Lift Station Phase II project: 1. Stormwater modeling, as part of the current Stormwater Comprehensive Plan update, identified a conveyance system deficiency located near the dead-end of Pace Dr. This deficiency is related to an undersized storm sewer pipe that discharges into the City’s Pace Drive stormwater pond. This deficient area is adjacent to the Sewer District’s project limits; and 2. Areas of deficient pavement along the 4th Street SE corridor are present within the Sewer District’s project limits. The Sewer District is already proposing to overlay the center two-way left turn and westbound lanes from S Iowa Ave to Eastridge Drive; therefore, there is a partnership opportunity to efficiently repair and overlay deteriorating pavement in the eastbound lane of 4th Street SE from Eastridge Drive to approximately 250’ west of S Iowa Ave. Partnering with the Sewer District to address the two (2) above-mentioned issues is advantageous to the City due to combining the City’s work into the larger Sewer 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 222 of 241 District project. This will ultimately reduce engineering and construction costs to the City. The proposed RH2 Engineering (RH2) Task Authorization (TA) will allow RH2 to design and incorporate the City’s work into the Sewer District’s project. In addition, provided the City accepts the construction bid, the proposed TA includes services during construction. III.

Summary Title: Chief Johnson along with Sergeant Marshall will present information regarding an Axon company Taser program for the East Wenatchee Police Department. The Chief is proposing a 5-year agreement that would meet EWPD’s taser needs while integrating tasers with the body worn camera system. 1.1. Background/History: In the last month, administration discovered that the current taser program is lacking in both stock and a valid replacement plan. Tasers are warrantied for 5-years. The proposed warranty includes legal defense from Axon on warrantied equipment along with repair and replacement, similar to the body worn camera program/lease. The EWPD currently has tasers as old as 2013 and does not have enough tasers for all commissioned staff. The PD already has a $2,184 commitment to Axon in 2021 & 2022 for tasers which would be replaced with the proposed replacement agreement of $9,646.00. Total cost of the 5-year proposed lease is $56,254.00. Recommended Action: Motion to authorize the Mayor to negotiate and enter into a 5-year contract with Axon to supply EWPD with tasers and taser related equipment for an amount not to exceed $56,254.00. Exhibits: Financial Data: Expenditure Required Amount Budgeted Appropriation Required $9,646.00 $ 33,000 $ 0 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 230 of 241 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 231 of 241 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 232 of 241 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 233 of 241 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 234 of 241 3/16/2021 City Council Agenda Packet 235 of 241 From:Trautmann, Cara Subject:Spectrum Pacific West, LLC ("SPECTRUM") Programming Update 03.01.2021 Date:Monday, March 1, 2021 4:25:24 PM Attachments:image002.png This letter will serve as notice that on or around April 1, 2021, Spectrum Pacific West, LLC (“Spectrum”), will launch Africa Channel HD on SPP Tier 2 HD & Spectrum Lifestyle TV HD tier of service on channel 201 on the channel lineup serving your community.
