The City of Auburn has purchased water from Tacoma Water to supplement Page 3 of 5
CA.A Page 7 of 50
the City's water supply. Tacoma Water has offered the City options to
purchase additional water. The City will need to decide to either purchase the
additional water or invest additional funds into the City of Auburn water
system. Staff is recommending investing additional resources into the
City water system.
The City has been rehabilitating the City water sources so the City should
have sufficient supply by 2017. It is important to ensure the City has
sufficient redundant supplies to meet the growing demand in the future.
Councilmember Osborne said in 2012 Council was informed it was more cost
effective to purchase the water from Tacoma than for the City to produce
additional water and questioned what has changed from 2012 to now to
make it more cost effective keep to the water in-house. Assistant Director
Gaub explained the rates quoted in this presentation are specific to Coal
Creek Springs, each water source will have a different rate. The City has
done a very detailed evaluation of the system and the cost for each system.
Councilmember Wales asked how the department knows the Coal Creek
Well capacity can be doubled. Utilities Engineering Manager Tobin stated the
well is fed by the Lake Tapps uplands aquifer, which has sufficient supply.
Councilmember Osborne asked since the City has not completed an
analysis to confirm the Coal Creek Springs Well could double capacity, will
the City complete the analysis prior to a decision on the purchase of Tacoma
Water. Utilities Engineering Manager Tobin reported the City did a
hydrological study that indicated the well would be able to
increase production.
Councilmember Osborne asked if the City is still planning on moving forward
with the Well 7 upgrades. Utilities Engineering Manager Tobin said the cost
of the upgrades are still less then purchasing water from Tacoma Water.
Deputy Mayor Holman stated both sources have environmental
concerns. Utilities Engineering Manager Tobin stated ground water has
significantly less impacted by climate changes.

6 Commissioned Police Officers - Funded by 5% Utility Excise Tax on Cable and COPS Grants
Description of Improvement
Increased staff will enable the deployment of dedicated staff to address Downtown crime/citizen perceptions; as well as, Les
Gove Campus security issues. In addition, some of this staff will be dedicated to targeted enforcement of
individuals/locations that are identified through criminal analysis as being involved in criminal activities.
We will add one additional bicycle officer to enhance that unit to 4 bicycle officers. Re-establish Pro-Act unit that was
disbanded back in 2008 due to the economic downturn. This unit has a directed mission of surveillance and waiting on
graffiti offenders, gang activity and both residential/commercial burglary offenders. This was a highly successful unit prior to
elimination. Add 1 Day Shift K-9 Officer and 1 Major Crimes Detective.
The additional staffing will have an immediate and long lasting impact on making Auburn citizens and business community
feel secure in their community.
This decision package also includes:
* 3 patrol vehicles for general patrol use
* 3 Pro-Active Detectives vehicles for undercover operations and unmarked patrol vehicle operations (in 2018)
* 1 bicycle for bicycle patrol officer
* body cameras (in 2018)
Alternatives
Continue to assign staff in overtime assignments to address noted issues.
Advantages of Approval
Dedicated bicycle patrol to patrol Downtown and City Parks, re-establish a Pro-Act unit that dedicates itself to targeting our
most prolific offenders and the crimes they commit, Day Shift K-9 Officer and 1 additional Detective.
Implications of Denial
Potential for continued high crime rate: Our CAD Incidents were second only to Kent in 2015. Our officer workload is the
highest of any neighboring agency in south King County. Remain re-active rather than Pro-Active.
