Yelm Reserve Officer of the Year (2014) -Don Wilson
Chief Todd Stancil stated that Don Wilson was hired as a Reserve Officer in 2005

He holds a level 3 classification, which is the highest classification you can have as
a reserve. He can patrol solo if need be. In 2008, Reserve Officer Wilson
responded to a head on collision on Yelm Avenue where he administered CPR and
first aid to one of the injured motorist. He was presented a Life Saving Award for
his actions. Reserve Officer Wilson is always willing to assist his fellow Officers will

Chief Todd Stancil stated this is Police Officer Devon Taylor's second time

2002 as a Reserve Officer for the City of Yelm. He received Reserve Officer of the
Year in 2005. In July of 2011, he was hired on to the City of Yelm as a full time

unanimous amongst the supervisory staff with the Yelm Police department. Officer
Taylor continues to be a leader in the department in regards to accountability and
professionalism. He sets a high standard for others to follow. His fashion to serve
the community of Yelm is unmatched and without question. On November 30,
2014, Officer Taylor responded to an accident where he and Thurston County

South Puget Sound Habitat for Humanity Stores -
Curt Andino, Executive Director; Caleb White, Manager of Retail Operations and
Keith Anderson, Yelm Store Manager -
Curt Andino, Executive Director for the South Puget Sound Habitat for Humanity
Stores thanked Mayor Harding and Councilmember Foster for inviting them to the
meeting and Councilmember Littlefield for having the gumption and the tenacity
to be on the HOME Consortium committee. South Puget Sound Habitat for
Humanity is a builder of affordable homes for low- income families in Thurston
County. A low- income family can own their own home for about $750 a month
with a zero interest loan. The home is built in cooperation with the family in need.
They must put in 250 hours assisting with the construction of their home. This
offers shelter to those in need, stability and equity to those in the workforce,
disabled and the elderly. The money to build these houses comes from the Habitat
for Humanity Stores and some government funding. The stores receive furniture
and construction material donations, which are sold and in turn fund the homes.
33 Units are currently being built in Lacey and in time, Habitat for Humanity would
like to build in Yelm. Mr. Andino introduced Caleb White, Manager of General
Retail Operations and the Yelm Store Manager, Keith Anderson. Councilmember
Hendrickson thanked Mr. Andino for the presentation and stated he recently
purchased a stove at the Yelm store. Everyone at the store was very nice and
professional. Councilmember Littlefield asked where most of the items in the
stores come from. Mr. Andino stated they are by donation. They will even come to
a location to pick up merchandise for the store. From January of this year to date,
1800 tons of material was diverted from the garbage dump to the store for resale.
People that have been given community service through the judicial system come
and clean the donated items for resale. Councilmember Foster thanked Mr.
Andino, asked about the process to obtain a Habitat for Humanity Home, and
asked why they have not built in Yelm yet. Mr. Andino stated there are about 40
applicants per home and constrained entirely by finances. The more governmental
funding received, the faster houses will go up. Councilmember Isom asked what
the percentage of the Habitat for Humanity home ownership retains ownership. 45
homes have been built and they have had no foreclosures. In Mr. Andino's ten
years with Habitat for Humanity, only two families have been asked to move out
of the homes.
Mayor Harding thanked Mr. Andino for the informative presentation and invited
him to future conversations on this subject.
5. Public Comment -
Clydia Cuykendall, a Thurston County resident is campaigning for Port of Olympia
Commissioner candidate, Joe Downing. Ms. Cuykendall asked Yelm what it would
like the Port of Olympia to do for Yelm in addition to the small cities funding
program. Mayor Harding stated the City tries to emphasize to the County
Commissioners that economic development responsibilities with the Port of
Olympia is a countywide initiative.

Recommendation
Approve Resolution No. 555 establishing a policy for payment of retroactive pay to non -
represented employees for work previously performed and establishing an effective
date of April 1, 2015.
Background
Historically, the City has provided consistent wage and benefit adjustments to all
employees, including both represented and non - represented when financially and
operationally able. The wages and benefits determined in the Salary and Benefit
Schedule are adopted as part of the annual budget with consideration of the Collective
Bargaining Agreements of the two represented groups in place. The 2012 -2014 CBA
agreement with Public Works and the Yelm Police expired 12/31/14, prior to the start of
bargaining for new agreements. The terms of the previous agreements remain until a
new agreement is in place.
Current Situation
This year is unique in that the bargaining with the Teamsters and Public Works began
after the 2015 Budget adoption. Council ratified the 2015 -2017 Collective Bargaining
Agreement with Public Works membership on March 10, 2015. The terms of the
agreement include a retroactive payment of wages effective January 1, 2015 to the
membership. Any adjustments will require an amendment to the Salary and Benefit
Schedule based on the terms of the agreement. For non - represented employees,
Resolution No. 555 would establish a policy to allow the City to make adjustments to the
compensation of the non - represented employees.

City of Yelm
STAFF REPORT
From: Shelly Badger, City Administrator
Date: March 6, 2015 (for March 24, 2015 City Council Meeting)
Subj: City of Yelm Skate Park Design and Construction Management Contract
Approval
Attach: BCRA Scope and Fee
Recommendation
Authorize Mayor Harding to sign a contract with BCRA in the amount of $107,915 for
the design of the new skate park to be located at 203 First St. S (SR 507).
Background
In 2014, the City began the design of a new Community Center to be constructed in City
Park. The existing skate park and police building were demolished in the summer of
2014. The new skate park is scheduled to be relocated to the old Public Works Yard
located at 203 First St. S. Before design and construction are to begin, two underground
storage tanks were to be evaluated for leaks and removed. These tanks were removed
on March 4, 2015. Preliminary indications are that the UST's did not leak and no soil
remediation is necessary.
Current Situation
With the completion of the UST removal, the City can now move forward with design of
the skate park. City staff have engaged with BCRA to refine the scope and fee. This
scope does include design and construction management tasks and the fee is within an
acceptable percentage of the overall project cost. Design is anticipated to take three
months and construction another four months.
A Community Development Block Grant was awarded to the City for the completion of
this project in the amount of $439,208.

2.1 Community Outreach Meetings
2.1.1 Stakeholder Meeting #1: The first stakeholder meetings is largely about introducing the
project to the community, and brainstorming design ideas. We do not approach the first
meeting with any pre- conceived ideas for the design direction. Rather, we utilize our
'Skateparks 101' visual presentation, 'Feedback Forms' and an interactive 'Terrain
Prioritization' exercise to gather empirical data, and help achieve a group consensus
regarding priorities for terrain feature elements, and overall style of park (i.e.
street /plaza vs. bowl /transition).
2.1.2 Stakeholder Meeting #2: During the second stakeholder meeting we gain critical
feedback from the user group on the first draft concept design(s) which we then take
into account in finalizing a Final Concept Design.
2.3 Complete schematic design drawings for skatepark (2D renders, final 3D renders). New Line to
collaborate on extended site design with BCRA.

GEOTECHNICAL SCOPE OF SERVICES
1.1 Geotechnical Engineering Study
1.1.1 Subsurface exploration for the project would be conducted using a rubber -tired
backhoe to excavate a series of exploration pits across the parcel. Subsurface
conditions encountered in the explorations would be observed and logged by an
engineering geologist or geotechnical engineer from our firm.
1.2 Infiltration Rate Assessment
1.2.1 Where soils are known to exhibit high infiltration rates similar to the site's
recessional outwash soils, it is possible to correlate infiltration rates from grain size
(sieve) data using the Massman equation per the 2012 Washington State
Department of Ecology (Ecology) Stormwater Management Manual for Western
Washington. Therefore, we propose to develop preliminary infiltration design rates
based on grain size distribution data from 6 soil samples. To estimate depth to
seasonal high ground water, we will utilize local Ecology water well logs. We have
also included in our scope of work organic content and cation exchange capacity
testing, and to assist the project civil engineer evaluation of the water quality
treatment characteristics of the soil in the proposed infiltration area.
Submittals:
Our findings and recommendations would be presented in o written geologic hazards
and geotechnicol engineering report to include the following minimum information:
o. A description of surface and subsurface conditions on the site;
b. Site preparation recommendations;
c. Recommendations for structurolfill placement;
d. Geologic hazards (including landslide hazards) and recommended mitigation;
e. Erosion hazards and mitigation;
f. Type(s) of suitable foundotion(s);
g. Depth to foundation bearing sediments;
h. Allowable foundation soil bearing pressures;
i. Temporary cut slope recommendations;
j. Drainage and erosion considerations;
k. Seismic considerations;
I. Preliminary design infiltration rote recommendations;
m. Recommendations for further studies, if warranted.

1.1 If unusual or unanticipated conditions are encountered that would involve additional costs, we would
immediately notify you to discuss modification of the study. Additional authorized services would be
provided as outlined on the Schedule of Charges.
1.2 We have not included pavement design in our scope of work, but could add this service at the request
of the Client. The pavement design would be based on traffic count data provided by others.
1.3 Prior to our exploration, AESI will notify the one -call utility locating service to locate buried public
underground utilities at the site. Locates conducted through the one -call locate service typically do
not cover water or sewer pipes on private property, or other privately owned utilities. For this reason,
we have included a private utility locate in our cost estimate below. Buried utilities locatable through
a private locate are typically limited to those constructed of a conductible metal or buried with a
conductible tracer wire. Non - conductible utilities, such as those constructed of plastic or concrete, or
those containing non - continuous conductible segments, are typically not locatable. The only way to
locate non - conductive privately owned utilities is by the use of accurate and complete as -built
drawings. Depending upon depth and location, not all metallic utilities may be locatable. If available,
we request that we be provided with as -built plans of known existing utilities prior to commencement

STAFF REPORT

March 13, 2015 (for March 24th City Council Meeting)
Subj: 2015 Water Conservation Program — Commercial Irrigation
Recommendation
Adopt Resolution Number 556 restricting the use of water for irrigation pursuant to
Section 13.04.097 Yelm Municipal Code and establishing policies and procedures for
the implementation of water conservation measures in 2015.
Background
The City Council adopted a water conservation program in 2010 that established a
water budget for each water customer with an irrigation meter. The budget was based
on the amount of water according to the Washington Irrigation Guide needed to
maintain healthy and productive landscaping, or the customers use in 2009, whichever
was less.
This program was anticipated to reduce irrigation usage in half. The program was
highly successful and water customers saved over 65 million gallons (200 acre feet) of
water since 2010. These water savings, along with residential water conservation,
helped to realize the City's conservation goals and extend the life of existing water
system infrastructure. The Council has continued the program each year since 2010.
The proposed 2015 water conservation program is identical to the 2014 program with
water budgets established by the Community Development Director based on the
criteria originally adopted by Council in 2009. This year, those users whose water

The proposed 2015 water conservation program is identical to the 2014 program with
water budgets established by the Community Development Director based on the
criteria originally adopted by Council in 2009. This year, those users whose water
Agenda Item 8. e. Resolution No. 556 -2015 Water Conservation Program

budgets were based on 2009 actual usage were updated to be based on the
Washington Irrigation Guide.
The total amount of water allocated for irrigation in 2015 includes approximately a 2.5%
unallocated reserve for the purpose of adding new customers.
The requested 2015 irrigation budget is 1,500,000 cubic feet (34.44 AF).
Current Situation
Weekly notices of water usage will be sent to the irrigation customers with usage that is
abnormally high, but not to all irrigation customers. Personal contact with those
customers using water at a rate that will result in over budget usage will be made
weekly. Personal contact will also be made as customers near their 2015 total
budgeted amount.
It is recommended that Council adopt Resolution 556, establishing a water conservation
program for 2015.

CITY OF YELM
RESOLUTION NUMBER 556
RESTRICTING THE USE OF WATER FOR IRRIGATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 13.04.097 YELM
MUNICIPAL CODE AND ESTABLISHING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION
OF WATER CONSERVATION MEASURES IN 2015
WHEREAS, Section 13.04.097 YMC states that the City reserves the right for any
cause to make any order regulating forbidding or restricting the use of water for
irrigation or sprinkling or any other non - essential outside usage; and
WHEREAS, irrigation water through irrigation meters within the City of Yelm used
68.7 acre feet of water in 2009, enough water to provide potable water for 285 homes;
and
WHEREAS, irrigation water through irrigation meters accounted for 8.5% of all
water used in Yelm in 2009; and
WHEREAS, irrigation water usage significantly adds to the peak demand needs of
the City of Yelm water system, requiring costly infrastructure improvements including
source capacity, storage, and distribution lines; and
WHEREAS, the City conducted a water audit that shows almost twice as much
water is used to irrigate commercial landscaping and recreational open space as is
required to keep these areas healthy and productive; and
WHEREAS, the City utilized the Washington Irrigation Guide, published by the
National Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) and data from the Environmental
Protection Agency to determine that typical landscaping plants comprised of trees and
shrubs require 11.53 inches of irrigation water per season in the Yelm area to remain
healthy and productive; and
WHEREAS, the City desires to promote water conservation by watering street
trees (trees in the public right of way) only as needed during the irrigation season with
reclaimed water and allowing grass in planter strips within the public right of way to go
dormant; and
WHEREAS, many private storm ponds within residential and commercial
developments have irrigation systems that were installed to establish storm pond
plantings but are not required for long term maintenance of the ponds; and
WHEREAS, residential irrigation is not metered separately through irrigation
meters but is a significant portion of total water usage in Yelm; and
Agenda Item 8. e. Resolution No. 556 -2015 Water Conservation Program
Page 4 of 9
WHEREAS, residential homeowners associations often have covenants and
restrictions that require lots to be maintained in a manner which requires significant
irrigation of lawns; and
WHEREAS, these covenants are not required by any City development regulation
and conflict with water conservation policies; and
WHEREAS, the City Council adopted Resolution 510 which established a water
conservation program based on these tenets in 2010 which resulted in a significant
reduction in irrigation water usage; and
Whereas, the City Council adopted Resolutions 522, 5317 539, and 550 which
continued the water conservation program from 2011 through 2014; and
WHEREAS, the City Council desires to promote water conservation in order to use
its water supply in the most efficient manner possible, limiting discretionary use;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Yelm
that the following water conservation measures be undertaken immediately.
1. The Community Development Director shall establish a water budget for every
irrigation meter customer that limits the annual amount of irrigation water allowed
for each irrigation meter. The water budget shall be based on:
• The area of landscaping on the site, excluding storm ponds and planter
strips within the public street right of way.
• An annual irrigation rate of 11.53 inches of water.
2. The total amount of water allocated for irrigation meter customers shall be no
greater than 1,500,000 cubic feet (34.44 AF).
3. Written notice of the annual water budget shall be provided to each irrigation
meter customer.
4. Irrigation meters will be read weekly during the irrigation season and notice of
weekly usage above that predicted by the Washington Irrigation Guide will be
provided to irrigation utility customers.
5. When the water budget for the year has been used, the irrigation meter will be
locked.
6. The City will irrigate with reclaimed water all planter strips in the public right of
way, as needed.
7. Residential water conservation is encouraged by the City of Yelm and private
covenants requiring residential irrigation of property are suspended.

On Thursday we reached the halfway point of the regular legislative session. From early
morning until late each night, every day this week was devoted to debating and voting
on bills that will now be considered by the House of Representatives.
Each chamber has until next Wednesday to send any legislation over to the opposite
chamber — the exception being for bills that will be in the budget package. This is the
next of the deadlines intended to help finish our job in Olympia within the 105 days
allowed by our state's constitution.
Earlier this week I was thrilled to lead the Senate in honoring the Bethel School District
superintendent, Tom Seigel (see photo). Even if you live in a different school district,
you are likely aware of Tom and that he is the driving force behind the Pierce County
Skills Center. What began as a vocational - technical high school for Bethel only in 2006
grew into a facility that is serving students from many Pierce County school districts
today. The schools in Bethel have seen big improvements under Tom's leadership and
his commitment to the community at large is truly inspirational.

On Monday, after days of debate, the Senate passed two more bills as part of the
transportation- revenue package. A total of 10 bills related to this package are now
being considered by the House of Representatives.
Voting in favor of the first eight bills was easy. I think we can all agree that holding the
state's transportation department more accountable is a good thing. The bill that listed
the more than 75 transportation projects that will be tackled around the state was also
an easy vote. As rural residents we know finishing State Route 167 to the Port of
Tacoma and making improvements to Interstate 5 through the Joint Base Lewis -
McChord corridor will get us home to our families sooner and entice businesses to
locate in our area.
Saying yes to the revenue bill, however, was the single hardest vote I have ever taken.
Agenda Item 12. Correspondence

I'm not in favor of more taxes, but the rubber has literally hit the road with our state's
infrastructure; our highways are crumbling, bridges are degrading and unfinished
projects and gridlock are hampering economic development. It's no different than what
homeowners face: when my aging furnace breaks down and can't be repaired any
longer, I must -- as much as I don't like it -- spend the money to replace it.
I'm pleased the Senate package fully funds each of the projects on the list, so they will
be 100 percent completed. It also contains some very effective consumer protections —
including one that will keep fuel - related revenue from being diverted for other uses,
instead being put toward roads and bridges.
I understand that no one — including me — wants to pay higher prices at the pump, but
folks have told me they would be willing to invest more in the infrastructure if there were
meaningful reforms that would protect their investment and stretch their dollars. I can
tell you it's those reforms and the strength of the projects that make this package so
much better than previous proposals, as well as what the Legislature adopted in 2003
and 2005.
This package is not a done deal. Passing it out of the Senate was the first of many
steps. I'm certain the House Transportation Committee will make changes and the
package may end up on the Governor's desk or it may not. I'll keep you posted as the
bills progress.

On Monday, 8 -year old Joseph and 9 -year old Samuel, who attend Ptarmigan
Elementary School in Orting, led the members of the Senate in a recitation of the
Pledge of Allegiance as part of our opening ceremonies.

As the one who brought this new custom to the Senate chamber it was gratifying to see
my friends from home participate. I feel strongly that our children should be learning
and reciting the pledge at school and adults are no different. It is a privilege to live in
America and we should all be reminded of the freedoms we enjoy.

I'm expecting to spend more long hours on the floor of the Senate chamber early next
week. Between votes, I find time to read every email and message my office receives.
So I hope you'll keep in touch either through enialill or by calling my legislative assistant,

Dear Friends and Neighbors,
We're starting the tenth week of the legislative session, having passed a Wednesday deadline for House - introduced bills
to be voted out of the House. There were some late nights last week and the week before. Now we're back to our
committees, holding hearings on Senate bills.
Please take a short survey on the minimum wage
The week before last, the House narrowly passed a bill to raise the state minimum wage to $12 per hour by 2019 (and raise it
every year after that according to the rate of inflation). I and many of my colleagues voted against it because we believe it
will hurt rural and lower- income areas more, and negatively impact our youth unemployment rate which is already far higher
than the national average. In fact, we tried to amend the bill to allow a lower training wage for younger workers, but we were
unsuccessful.
The minimum wage bill now goes to the state Senate for consideration. Additionally, a
wealthy Democratic Party donor says he plans to put a $16- per -hour statewide minimum
wage on the ballot in 2016, so this issue will be ongoing.
I would like to know your opinion on minimum wage. Please take a short, three - question
survey -- you can click here. or on the button to the right. I appreciate your input.
House floor action
The House last week wrapped up eight days of voting on the House floor. Although things
generally went well and most of the bills passed with bipartisan support, I was
Agenda Item 12. Correspondence
Page 11 of 13
disappointed by the way the debate was conducted by the majority party. In several
cases, the Democratic leadership cut off debate on issues important to our state.
For example, a bill of mine that finally passed on Tuesday would create a task force to
study the merits of letting school districts build new schools outside of their urban
growth boundaries. My original bill, which I sponsored at the request of the Bethel
School District, would have allowed such building to go ahead immediately but in order
to get Democratic support we had to compromise with a study.
Our debate on the House floor was interrupted by the majority party when the
discussion touched on the many problems the Growth Management Act (GMA) has
caused. We were told there would be no vote on my bill if we kept talking about the
GMA. The bill was eventually approved, but it seemed wrong that we weren't allowed
to have an open discussion merely because the majority party felt uncomfortable with
the topic. You can watch the floor debate on the bill .here..
Are we under - taxed?
This session, a recurring theme from the governor and some of the members across the aisle is that state government isn't
collecting enough tax revenues. They argue that, as a share of personal income, state and local tax collection in Washington
has gone from 11th highest in the nation in the mid -1990s to 35th today. They
say there isn't enough money to pay for all the services Washingtonians expect.
Now, you won't get any argument from me about the need for reforming our
state's tax structure. It is true that Washington has many more wealthy residents
than it did 20 years ago; much of that wealth is concentrated in the greater Seattle
area. The tax burden should be spread fairly across all citizens, and not borne
disproportionately by the middle class or lower- income people.
But I don't believe the goal should be to increase people's taxes. It should be to
make our tax system fairer. With the exception of the gas tax which the governor
is proposing to replace with a carbon tax, all the new taxes and tax hikes would
be added on top of the already existing taxes.
I believe strongly that it is my job to work hard to do the most with existing
revenues and be as efficient as we possibly can with those dollars. If we ever ask
for more it should only be as a last resort and to pay for solid assets for the
people of Washington.
Tell me what you think. Do you think the state of Washington doesn't collect
enough taxes, or do you think the government should be more careful about how
it spends tax dollars? Send me an email at 't.wilcox (He ).wa. .
That's all for this week. Thank you for your time, and it is an honor to serve you
in the state House of Representatives.
