Resolution No. 3465 F4.7 A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Auburn, Washington, authorizing the transfer of funds for the purpose of making a loan or loans from the General Fund and/or the Cumulative Reserve Fund to the Arterial Street Fund for up to a three-year period of time. Finance Director Coleman explained that Resolution No. 3465 is merely for cash flow purposes until grant reimbursements are received. Vice Chair Borden moved and Member Cerino seconded to recommend adoption of Resolution No. 3465. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 3-0. V. DISCUSSION ITEMS A. Capital Facilities Plan Director Coleman distributed copies of a draft agreement with Henderson, Young & Company. The purpose of the agreement is to update the Capital Facilities Plan (CFP). Director Coleman reported that the CFP needs to include any projects funded by REET (Real Estate Excise Tax) funds and also needs to be updated to include transportation impact fees in order to comply with the Growth Management Act (GMA). Director Coleman explained that updating the CFP improves bond ratings by showing the City is proactive in managing and projecting project funding sources. Ideally, the CFP should be updated every year. Director Coleman reviewed the proposed scope of work and budget for the CFP update. Director Coleman stated that Henderson, Young & Company has worked for the City of Auburn on previous CFP updates. Finance Committee Minutes for May 6, 2001 Page 4 Committee Members directed Director Coleman to proceed with the Agreement for Professional Services with Henderson, Young & Company for Committee review at the May 20, 2002 meeting. B. Incarceration Alternatives Human Resources Director Heineman reported that she is the City of Auburn representative on the Committee reviewing incarceration alternatives. To date, successful negotiations with King County with regard to incarceration of inmates include reductions in the maintenance day fee from $100.00 to $77.37, and the booking fee from $155.30 to 148.78. Alternative facilities for inmates are being discussed. It is very likely that King County may require cities to find alternative facilities sooner than expected. Director Heineman stated that the Committee is urging finalization of a long-term agreement with Yakima Jail so as to have a facility to incarcerate Auburn misdemeanants. The long-term agreement will enable Yakima to procure financing to begin construction of an additional facility. Participating cities have committed to a 440 bed facility. The City of Auburn will be responsible for the number of beds equal to an average of beds used over a one-year period of time. The information to determine the average number of beds used is being compiled by Police Chief Jim Kelly. Director Heineman explained that a long-term agreement with Yakima would provide time for the City of Auburn to research the type and size of facility that the City may wish to construct in the future. Director Heineman reported that King County is also terminating judicial services for surrounding cities. Recent legislation allows cities to enter a pilot program to share jurisdictions for judicial services. The City of Auburn Municipal Court entered the pilot program with the cities of Kent, Federal Way, Tukwila, Des Moines, Renton, and Pacific. Director Heineman stated that problems at the Yakima facility related to teleconferencing with regards to visitation and arraignments should be resolved by June, 2002, and will eliminate inmate transportation issues. Transportation will only be necessary for court appearances. Finance Committee Minutes for May 6, 2001 Page 5 VI.
