5. Public Comment
Steve Klein, Thurston County resident shared his concerns for Bald Hill Road with
all the rain we have had recently. There have been a couple of issues in the last
year and a half that has shut the road down due to flooding. This project is on the
6 Year Transportation Improvement Plan but it could take years to fund the
project. Mr. Klein would like to see something done very soon since it is a well-
traveled road. Mr. Klein suggested putting up a concrete wall and dredging under
Highway 507 to help with the drainage. Mayor Harding stated that Public Works
Director Ryan Johnstone is aware of the problem and he is working on it.
Cameron Jane, owner of the Triad Arts Theater presented the Mayor and
a valentine coupon and invited them to the theater on February

10. Mayor and Council Initiatives
Councilmember Foster attended an informational meeting concerning the
formation of a group that is interested in bringing an Art Institute to Yelm.
Councilmember Foster is involved with the Thurston County Medic One EMS
system and is happy to report that after compiling data from last year, Thurston
County is now at a 59% save rate for cardiac arrests. The national average is
somewhere around 10% so Thurston County has worked diligently to have such
an impressively high save rate.
Councilmember Carmody attended the same informational meeting as
Councilmember Foster regarding the Art Institute group and added that it was
very informative and it is going into the pre feasibility stages. Councilmember
Carmody state it would be an awesome opportunity to bring art classes to Yelm
and technical, vocational, educational classes as well. Councilmember Carmody
also attended the Intercity Transit Board meeting and they approved a new
contract with their Attorney and Lobbyist and approved a chairperson to the
Council. Councilmember Carmody met with EJ Curry from the Yelm Adult
Community Center and one of the needs that conveyed was that the Senior
Center needs more volunteers and money.
Councilmember Wood attended the TComm 911 Admin Board meeting, the
current Chair and Vice Chair were reappointed, and they discussed the Text 911
service. More information regarding this new system will be brought to Council in
the future.
Councilmember DePinto will be reaching out to neighboring cities regarding
their Parks and Recreation departments so we can improve upon ours.
Councilmember DePinto met with Farron McCloud, Chairman of the Nisqually
Indian Tribe to discuss partnerships and how we can work closer together and
improve our relationship. Councilmember DePinto asked when the Yelm
Transportation Committee meets. Mayor Harding stated they are held on an as
needed basis. Councilmember DePinto has reached out to the STEDI group to
determine when they meet.
Councilmember Hendrickson attended the Yelm Emergency Operations board
meeting along with Chief Todd Stancil, and discussed the Alert Sense system.
The Hazardous Mitigation
Plan is moving along. The Yelm School District has purchased a big generator
from Fairpoint Communications to be used during emergency fuel situations. The
Executive Seminar for Thurston County will be March 21, 2016. That is Cascadia
Rising, which will be a State wide emergency exercise that will last for 5 days.
Yelm will be involved in the exercise for 3 days. In the event of an actual
emergency, the Public Safety Building will be the set up. Mayor Harding clarified
the Alert Sense program is very similar to an Amber Alert system. All the
jurisdictions in Thurston County are subscribing to the program. A system would
send out messages to the community via text.

Project Funding Approval Request
Recommendation
AuthorizeMayor Harding to enter into an Agreement with the Transportation
Improvement Board(TIB)to mutually fund the construction of sidewalk along SR507
between Mosman Avenue SE and Washington Avenue SE.
Funding
Expense authority for this project requires Council Approval via a separate budget

On July 28, 2015 City Council adopted Resolution 559 which adopted an updated six
year transportation improvement program(STIP).The STIP is the capital facilities
document that guides transportation funding for a six year cycle. Itis based on the
Yelm Comprehensive Transportation Plan and is the ‘implementation’ document forthe
overall plan. Projects that are on the STIP are eligible for State or Federal funding, as
well as funding from the use of Localfunding sources, such asTraffic Facilities Charges
(TFC’s).

Identified within the 2015 STIP list above was the “SR 507 Sidewalk – Mosman to
Washington” projectY17B which Public Works pursued funding for in 2015.
Current Situation
In the Fall of 2015 Public Works submitted an application to the TIB for funding of the
SR 507 sidewalk project. On November 20, 2015 we received confirmation that our
project had been selectedfor funding in 2016-17.Estimated project costs for this
project are $400,400, inclusive ofa 20% matching requirement from the City ($80,080).
We were informed in December 2015 by the TIB that design funding for this project can
be authorized immediately upon submission of the appropriate verification and
agreement execution. It would be prudent to expedite this project into design as quickly
as possible to take advantage of the adjacent Yelm Skatepark improvement project
proximity for continuity of projects and better design.

STAFF REPORT
To: Mayor Ron Harding
Yelm City Council
From: Noah Crocker, Finance Director
Date: February 17, 2016 (for February 23, 2016 City Council Meeting)
Subj: Ordinance No. 1011, 2016 Budget Amendment Fund 102 and Fund 316
Adopt Ordinance 1011, amending the adopted 2016 Budget to increase the spending
authority in Fund 102 (Arterial Street Fund) and 316 (Roads/Street Construction) by
$80,080 and $445,889 respectively to complete the SR 507 Sidewalk project, complete/
release retainage from the Cullens/Solberg Construction Project and complete the
Mosman Phase 2 Engineering.
In the Fall of 2015 Public Works submitted an application to the Transportation
Improvement Board (TIB) for funding of the SR 507 sidewalk project. On November 20,
2015 we received confirmation that our project had been selected for funding in 2016-
17. Estimated project costs for this project are $400,400, inclusive of a 20% matching
requirement from the City ($80,080).
The City was informed in December 2015 by the TIB that design funding for this project
can be authorized immediately upon submission of the appropriate verification and
agreement execution.
For the estimated project cost of $400,400 TIB will provide a grant of $320,320 and the
City identified $80,080 from Fund 102 as a source to provide the match as required by
TIB. As the project will be paid for out of fund 316, a transfer of $80,080 is required
from 102 to 316. The anticipated grant proceeds will be added to the 2016 budget as a
funding source.
Secondly, as the Cullens/Solberg project has reached completion the City has released
retainage to the contractor. The original 2016 budget did not provide for the release of
retainage as the project was anticipated to be fully completed in 2015. Additional
expenditure authority of $10,010.62 is requested as a part of this budget amendment.

Agenda Item 8. b. Ordinance No. 1011, Budget Amendment, Fund 102 and 316
Page 2 of 3
Finally, during the 2016 Budget process the forecast was for higher expenses to be
incurred in the 2015 budget year for the Mosman Phase 2 project. The expenses for
Mosman Phase 2 did not occur in 2015 but are anticipated to occur during the 2016
budget year. This amendment will move expenditure authority from the 2015 fiscal year
to the 2016 fiscal year.
There is sufficient cash in Fund 102 to provide the grant match. With the transfer and
the TIB grant, fund 316 will have sufficient cash to complete the projects at present.
The Council should adopt Ordinance 1011 in order to provide the transfer, authorize the
expenditures to construct the SR507 Sidewalk project, complete the Cullens/Solberg
Project and complete the Mosman Phase 2 Engineering.

To: Mayor Ron Harding
Yelm City Council
From: Ryan Johnstone, Public Works Director
Date: February 11, 2016 (for February 23, 2016 City Council Meeting)
Subj: Deschutes River Habitat Restoration Final Design
Attach: Final Design Professional Services Agreement, Consultant Scope and Fee
Authorize Mayor Harding to sign the professional services agreement with Confluence
Environmental Company in the amount of $35,000 (one-third of the total fee of
$105,000) for completion of the final design effort for the Deschutes River Habitat
Restoration project.
Expense authority for this project was approved by City Council via ordinance No. 1008
(the 2016 Budget) within the 401-Water Utility fund. Adequate funds exist in the budget
for the Deschutes River Habitat Restoration Project final design.
The Deschutes River Habitat Restoration project restores former fish and wildlife habitat
on 200 acres of property jointly owned by the Cities of Yelm, Lacey, and Olympia. The
property was originally purchased in 2011. Habitat restoration design has been ongoing
since that time.
This project is one of a suite of mitigation projects agreed to be completed by the Cities
of Yelm, Lacey, and Olympia in order to mitigate for groundwater withdrawals
associated with water rights that were awarded to the Cities by the Department of
Ecology. However, because Yelm's water rights award was reversed by the Washington
State Supreme Court, the City has committed to support the final design of this
particular project only. Any further mitigation efforts to be funded by the City of Yelm,
including the construction of this project, are "on-hold" until the issues surrounding the
award of future water rights to the City of Yelm are settled.

60% design of the habitat restoration project was completed in 2015 and it is expected
that final design will be completed by late summer of 2016. The cost of final design is
$105,000. The Cities are splitting the cost evenly three ways with Yelm's share of the
final design cost being $35,000.
Construction of the designed improvements will begin in 2017.

From:Grant Beck, Community Development Director

Subj:Community Center Rental Fees
Adopt Resolution 565 establishing rental fees for the Yelm Community Center.
The Yelm Community Center is nearing completion and will soon be available to rent.
Mayor Harding had requested that the Yelm ParksAdvisory Committeedevelop
proposed rules and procedures, and a rental fee schedule for consideration by the City
Council.
The Committee reviewed the operations of similar facilities within the Thurston/Pierce
County region and, from these examples, forwarded recommendedpolices, rules, and
rental fees to the City Council. The Council first reviewed the proposal at its study
session inOctober,2015. At that time, there was discussion about discounted rates for
local community service organizations and City residents.
The matter was revisited at the January 23, 2016 study session, after the Committee
reviewed the Council’s concerns with Councilmember Foster and Mayor Harding.
At the January study session, the Council requested that the fees, recommended to be
comparableto similar regional facilities, be set lower than comparables until operations
costs and the capacity of the facility had some history. With lowerrental fees, the
Council indicated that discountsmay not be required.
The resolution before Council reflects the discussion from the January study session.
The City Council may choose to adopt Resolution 565 to establish rental fees at the
Community Center.

Subj: Interlocal Agreement – Yelm Community Schools
Authorize Mayor Harding to sign an interlocal agreement between the City and Yelm
Community Schools for the application of the Office of Drinking Water Grant.
Yelm Community Schools has requested that Prairie Elementary be connected to the
City of Yelm Water System. Prairie Elementary is currently served by a Group A water
system owned and maintained by the School District. The school is within the water
service area of the City and is within Yelm’s Urban Growth area, although it is currently
outside the City limits.
The cost to design and installation of a water main extension to serve the school will be
borne by the School District. The Washington State Department of Health, Office of
Drinking Water offers grant assistance to water systems extending service to facilities
such as schools. The water system is the entity eligible for the grant funds, in this case,
the City of Yelm.
The City and School District would like to enter into an interlocal agreement to allow the
City to apply for grant funds to design the water main extension to serve Prairie
Elementary.
The City Council should authorize Mayor Harding to sign the interlocal agreement.
