Jane King spoke with the Council regarding a Metron Contract in a market study for the proposed Senior/Recreation Center at Walla Walla point. Ms. King said the tasks reflect the same methodology as outlined in a proposed contract with Wenatchee. She said Metron, Inc. would conduct an additional three focus group discussion in East Wenatchee. One with senior citizens, one with East Wenatchee youth, and one with parents of area youth. RSVP volunteers would distribute 350 survey forms to East Wenatchee registered voters with the goal of completing 250 surveys. Tery McKee said he appreciated what Metron was trying to do but wondered if the City would want to get involved in a project that would be located at Walla Walla Point. Paul Cassel said he had talked with Dick Woods and Mr. Woods spoke of a joint bond issue after determining what the people want and a location. Paul said he had no problem with a joint bond issue and with the 800.00 for the study but he said it was his understanding that Douglas County was not planning to participate in the survey so feels the City would be throwing away 800.00 without County involvement, but said he does agree with the concept. Ms. King said she had been informed that Douglas County did not wish to be involved and that the City's 800.00 figure would be in jeopardy. Mr. King was asked by the Council, to get some facts and figures together and present them to the City by Friday so the issue can be discussed at the Council's retreat. Paul Cassel made a motion to adopt Resolution No. 89-7 (adopting standards for public defense services as mandated by the Washington State Legislature) The Resolution sets standards such as Compensation of Counsel, Duties and Responsibilities of Counsel, Case Load Limits, Responsibility for Expert Witness Fees and Other Costs Associated with Representation, Administrative Expenses/ Support Services, Reports of Attorney Activity and Vouchers, Training, Supervision, Monitoring and evaluation of Attorneys, Substitution of Attorneys or Assignment of Contracts, Limitation on Private Practice of Contract Attorneys, Qualifications of Attorneys, Disposition of Client Complaints, Cause for Termination of Contract or Removal of Attorney and Nondiscrimination. Motion was seconded by Les Young and passed by vote of the Council. y'. There being no further business, Tery McKee made a motion that the meeting be adjourned, seconded by Les Young and passed by vote of the Council.
