Matt Paluch, Executive Chair of Moses Lake Community Coalition
Jessica Cox, Vice Executive Chair of Moses Lake Community Coalition
Re: Quarterly Report April-June 2023
Moses Lake Community Coalition has been actively pursuing objectives from our strategic plan.
The following descriptions include the measures we have taken from April 2023- June 2023.
Services provided:
1. Community Mental Health Promotion: We continue to support the Youth Action Team at
Moses Lake High School. They are currently working on two projects. One of those being a
pocket mental health guide for students. They are nearly finished, all that is left is graphic
design. This project will roll over to the next school year. They are also planning on continuing
work on a safe space on campus during the next school year.
2. Family Management Promotion: MLCC decided during our strategic planning process to
focus our family efforts on PAX Tools Workshops. These workshops compliment the PAX Good
Behavior Game strategies that have been implemented at Boys and Girls Club and will be
implemented fall 2023 at Larson Heights Elementary. We also ran the Talk. They Hear You,
media campaign. This campaign’s focus is to teach parents how to have preventative
conversations with their children. We plan to reinforce these concepts by offering
presentations to parents at the middle schools next school year.
3. Outreach & Community Education Workshops: We had two educational workshops during
this time. We provided Hidden in Plain Sight training to 33 staff members at Job Corps here in
Moses Lake. This training teaches adults how to spot modern paraphernalia devices as well as
how to be preventative with the youth they are responsible for. In addition, we co-sponsored
(with Washington Healthcare Authority) a Youth Mental Health First Aid training at Job Corps
that catered to their staff, Moses Lake Community Health Center staff, and the community at
large. This training provided 20 local community members with the opportunity to gain skills
that are referred to as mental health CPR. As for our outreach efforts, we attended Park
Orchard Elementary School Family Night as well as the Moses Lake Senior Picnic.

4. Moses Lake Community Coalition: Our coalition and Executive Leadership Team continue to
meet monthly. Our coalition currently has 54 voting members that have signed a Coalition
Involvement Agreement. Our coalition partner list is up to 98 individuals and our newsletter
circulation is currently 214, with several views coming in via Facebook as well.
We have completed our strategic planning process for the 2023-2024 fiscal year, and we are
providing a copy of our updated Action Plan and Logic Model to you. In addition, we were able to
secure a grant from Thriving Together that will help us further our prevention efforts. For this next
fiscal year, we will be utilizing City of Moses Lake funding to support general coalition function, and
our training and capacity building activities. This is a more refined focus with city funding than in
years past.
City funds will help to support our general coalition operation, community outreach, our annual Town
Hall, the annual Key Leader Event, and our Youth Development opportunities which will now include
training students to provide peer-to-peer support for suicide prevention. This will also aid our ability
to provide parent prevention education presentations, presentations for middle schoolers about
substance use and prevention, provide a community education workshop, and support coalition
training. There is also an increased this focus on mental health as the coalition is developing a
taskforce that will work with organizations across the county to assess and address gaps in our
current level of mental health services.
MLCC continues to work on innovative as well as evidence-based approaches to address substance
use prevention in our city. We plan to continue to seek additional funding in order to be able to
further expand our efforts. We are ever grateful for the city’s continued support for our work. If there
are any topics of interest city council would like our growing coalition to research and potentially
fund, we would invite you to bring that to our table. It is our goal to continue to provide strategies
and programs to the city of Moses Lake while continuously seeking funding to benefit our
community.
Sincerely,
Megan Watson

Mr. Don Myers
I would like to offer my sincerest gratitude for displaying the commemorative stole, “Mountain
and Moon,” that we gifted to you, in addition to sending us the picture of all of you with the
stole and the works by local artist Kimberly Matthews Wheaton. Even from far away Yonezawa,
it felt as if I was viewing Moses Lake’s warm landscapes up-close and in-person.
I was reminded of the importance of exchange with everyone in Moses Lake at the ceremony
last October commemorating the 40th Anniversary of our sister city affiliation. Currently, we
are in the midst of working on visiting Moses Lake once again and restarting our exchange
student and mutual visit programs. When we have more details we will be in touch.
I am greatly looking forward to the day when we can once again meet, socialize, and exchange
in person with all of you from Moses Lake City.

Overview
Fiscal and Policy Implications

Provide Amended Direction:
No Action Taken:
RCW 42.24 governs the process for audit and review of claims and payroll payments for the City. RCW
42.24.180 requires the review and approval of all payments at a regularly scheduled public meeting on at
least a monthly basis. The State Budgeting, Accounting and Reporting Systems (BARS) Manual outlines the
above format for approval by the City Council.
RCW 42.24.080 requires that all claims presented against the City by persons furnishing materials, rendering
services or performing labor must be certified by the appropriate official to ensure that the materials have
been furnished, the services rendered, or the labor performed as described, and that the claims are just, due
and unpaid obligations against the City.
RCW 42.24.180 allows expedited processing of the payment of claims when certain conditions have been
met. The statute allows the issuance of warrants or checks in payment of claims before the legislative body
has acted to approve the claims when: (1) the appropriate officers have furnished official bonds; (2) the
legislative body had adopted policies that implement effective internal control; (3) the legislative body has
provided for review of the documentation supporting the claims within a month of issuance; and (4) that if
claims are disapproved, they shall be recognized as receivables and diligently pursued.
The City meets all these conditions.
To comply with the requirements, Finance staff schedule payment of claims and payroll for semi-monthly Council
approval on the Consent Agenda. The payments listed in the schedule cover all claims and payroll payments
during the period prior to the date of the Council meeting.
All payments made during this period were found to be valid claims against the City. Details are attached and
any questions should be directed to the City Manager or Finance Director.
The City's internal controls include certification of the validity of all payments by the appropriate department prior
to submission for payment. The Finance Director has delegated authority for the examination of vouchers and
authorization of payments to the Finance, Accounts Payable, and Payroll staff. All payments are reviewed and
validated. The Finance Division regularly reviews it processes to ensure appropriate internal controls are in
place.

No Action Taken:
The Community Development Department has received a request from Sara Prather on behalf of CAD Homes,
LLC. to build a single dwelling on unplatted property[1]. The property is located at the intersection of Madison St
and Quintanilla Dr. The Assessor’s Parcel Number is 11-0176-000. The proponent is requesting to construct one
single residential dwelling on the .27-acre parcel which is zoned R1 Single Family Residential.
Per Moses Lake Municipal Code 16.02.040 a building permit cannot be issued on unplatted property unless the
City Council finds that the public interest will not be adversely affected by the issuance of such a permit. All
other criteria of land use and building permit requirements will still apply.
The parcel is a remnant parcel from the Sydney Major Subdivision that the applicant developed in 2020. The
applicant chose to exclude this area and not include it within the major subdivision because it would have put
the development over the threshold that would require a second street access be improved to meet the fire
safety standards. The Fire Marshal is requesting, should City Council approve the request, that the additional
dwelling unit be required to install NFPA 13R.
When property is subdivided it is subject to certain development requirements such as infrastructure
improvements, dedication of open/park space, transferring water rights or paying a fee in lieu of water rights.
Since this parcel was not included in the major subdivision it was not subject to the required fees. Should City
Council grant the privilege to build on unplatted property, Community Development is recommending that the
development fees be included in the decision.
This is a one-time action. The applicant will not be allowed to proceed in same manner as conducted in 2020 by
agreement.
[1] Unplatted property is property that has not been subdivided in compliance with RCW 58.17.
None
Options and Results
The applicant will be able to build on unplatted property.
Staff will bring back options for recommended changes.
The applicant will not be able to build on unplatted property.

Evergreen Storm H20 was contracted October 22 , 2022, to develop a comprehensive stormwater plan and
rate study. This study will support and ensure the City has adequate funding to maintain compliance with
regulatory requirements and provide a proactive plan for expanding the City’s stormwater system to keep pace
with growth while maintaining functionality of the existing assets.
The contract included Task 5, which was intended for Evergreen Storm H20 to prepare a grant application to
fund portions of Task 4 Capital Improvement Project identification, Task 5 rate study, a portion of Task 6 which is
the completion of Chapter 6 of the Comprehensive Plan and Task 8 which is the Communication Portion of the
Plan.
On June 22 , 2023, the City was awarded a grant in the amount of $332,500 to fund Task 4,5,6, and 8.
Now that the grant has been awarded, the contract needs to be amended to allow the additional scope of work
items to be added to the original contract to complete tasks 4, 5, 6, and 8.
The City was made aware of a Growth Management Act (GMA) compliance issue that the Planning Division is
quickly working to resolve. This compliance issue will not allow the grant agreement to be signed until the City is
fully compliant with the GMA.
Brad Mitchell and Kirsten Peterson met with Washington Department of Ecology grant managers to seek an
extension for grant agreement signatures. This extension will require the City to be GMA compliant before
Ecology will fund the $332,500. The Planning Division is working towards a February compliance date, provided
City Council approves the code update.
nd
nd
The Amendment will be funded by a $332,500 Grant, the contract amount is $333,547. This will require $1,047
of unbudgeted funds to be used for the completion.
Options and Results
Evergreen Storm H20 will begin working on the Rate Study, Capital Improvement Project Identification, and
completion of Chapter 6 of the Comprehensive Plan.

The comprehensive plan will not be completed and will remain unfinished. The updated rate structure will also

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
In 2007 the City of Moses Lake (City) qualified for an Eastern Washington (EWA) Phase
II combined National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) and State Waste
Discharge General Permit for Discharges from Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewers
(MS4s) [MS4 Permit]. Since the first MS4 Permit issuance, the City has experienced
considerable economic growth particularly with industrial and residential
development resulting in many areas transitioning from farmland. The primary goal of
this project is to develop a comprehensive stormwater plan and rate study that
supports and will fund the City in maintaining compliance with regulatory
requirements and a proactive plan for expanding their stormwater system to keep
pace with growth while maintaining the functionality of their existing assets. These
project goals will be achieved by completing the following.
• Review existing city information and regulatory requirements (Tasks 2 & 3) to
develop an actionable comprehensive stormwater plan that the City can utilize.
• Evaluate and recommend city resource needs and improvements to support
compliance and utility operation by performing a gap analysis that considers
current and anticipated MS4 Permit requirements, UIC Program Rule (UIC Rule), and
level of service (LOS) goals for unregulated stormwater elements (Task 2).
• Evaluate and recommend improvements in the stormwater collection system based
on conveyance goals, policies, and anticipated growth (Task 3 & 4).
• Develop and implement a well-defined system for prioritizing Capital Improvement

Task 4 Develop CIP Budget
This task focuses on developing a CIP project budget which includes conducting hydraulics and
hydrology (H&H) modeling to identify problem areas, conducting a receiving water assessment
to identify locations where water quality retrofits are most needed, developing conceptual CIP
project designs, as well as conceptual-level opinion of probable costs for CIP projects and asset
management replacement/repairs. In addition, a rubric will be developed for prioritizing CIP
projects, which will be created with input from the City to identify the highest priority CIP projects
to address as part of their stormwater infrastructure improvements.
Task 4a Hydraulics and Hydrology Modeling
This subtask focuses on H&H modeling to evaluate the capacity of the city’s stormwater conveyance
system, reviewing drainage compliant records, and developing a list of potential projects that advance to
conceptual design as part of Task 4c.
Consultant Services
• Develop CIP Project List
o Develop a List of Drainage Areas of Concern
▪ Collect and review the City-wide inventory of drainage complaints. This information combined
with notes from the maintenance interviews will be organized into groups by location and then
drainage issues at each location. Drainage areas of concern that appear likely to warrant a CIP
project for addressing the concern will be identified. These will include areas that cannot be
addressed by the City’s standard operations and maintenance program.
▪ Field Inspections will be conducted with City personnel to locations with drainage areas of
concern. The purpose of these visits is to confirm field conditions at locations where CIP
projects may be needed. Field inspection locations will be selected by the City and/or
recommended by the Consultant based on the modeling results or notes of known drainage
issues. Up to 16 hours are budgeted for two staff members to conduct site visits to confirm and
document locations of stormwater assets.
o Develop Synthesized List of Drainage Areas of Concern along with the stormwater conveyance
systems or facilities that need to be upgraded or replaced (H&H modeling results). The table will
include a summary of the following information:
▪ Issue Summary: The location, date(s) and frequency of occurrence, prior mitigation attempts,
and the source of the information (drain issues), and type of stormwater feature (i.e., culvert,
drywell, BMP, catch basin, etc.)
▪ Recommended CIP Design: a concept design alternative will be identified and summarized. A
plan will be developed for planning-level evaluation of each alternative using the information
available. The plan will include a general approach for modeling if needed or a qualitative
approach if modeling is not needed.
o During a monthly check-in meeting with the City, the Consultant will review and confirm the areas of
concern identified.
o Develop one 11x17 City-wide map that identifies all drainage areas of concern.
o The consultant will meet with the City to review the synthesized and determine which projects should
advance to CIP development.

Task 5 Rate Study
This task will be performed by FCS GROUP. The task focuses on conducting a rate study to determine the
revenue needed to support the stormwater utility and meet existing and anticipated regulatory
requirements. An innovative and effective rate study will generate a pricing structure and financial plan
that satisfies the long-term obligations of the utility and will target an equitable cost recovery solution
from customers while conforming to legal constraints, regulatory requirements, agency policies, and
community values. The rate components included as part of this rate study proposal center on the
following components, each of which are applicable to the City.
• Modeling Toolset − Provides the framework for the rate study offering the City a
“nimble” and dynamic model that can evaluate the impact of changes to key inputs
and/or variables and inform decision making.
• Revenue Requirement Analysis – Establishes near and long-term revenue needs to
ensure that rates can fully recover the operating, maintenance, administration and
capital needs for a self-supporting system.
• Cost-of-Service Analysis − Evaluates whether customers are paying for their
proportionate use of the systems by establishing an equitable basis for assigning
“cost shares” that are in line with their use of the system.
• Rate Design Analysis − Designs a rate structure that collects target revenue levels.
Consultant Services
We understand that the stormwater system will have distinct needs, initiatives, and influences which will
inform the long-range financial requirements and rate resources necessary. FCS GROUP understands that
every public agency faces its own unique challenges. One of the keys to our success and reputation is our
ability to listen to our clients and produce customized study results that can be easily implemented and
understood by everyone. While we follow proven methodologies, we recognize and respect that a
successful solution for a common problem will inevitably look different depending on the needs and
values of each individual agency—we are continually engineering innovative solutions tailored to the
specific needs of each client.
The following tasks are proposed as part of the rate study effort.
• Project Initiation Meeting
A project initiation meeting will be scheduled at the commencement of the project with the
consultant team and City project team. This meeting will establish the goals and objectives of the
overall project and focus the efforts of the project team. The items covered at the meeting include
review of the scope of work, identify project objectives, expectations and deliverables, outline the
project schedule and key milestone review points and discuss appropriate lines of communication.
This meeting is proposed as remote using the application of the City’s choice.
• Data Collection
Provide a data needs list at project initiation encompassing, revenue, expenses, fiscal policies,
capital plans, facility plans, and available customer account and parcel data. The data will be
reviewed, analyzed and validated for inclusion in the study process.
COML Council Packet 9-26-23, Page 77 of 141
Page 8 of 15
• Rate Model Toolset
The rate model forms the framework and foundation of the rate study analysis. As a project
deliverable, this study will provide the City with a financial model capable of running sensitivity
analysis based upon alternative scenarios for staffing and/or other operating expenses, capital
prioritization and level of service scenarios. FCS will work closely with the City project team to
establish the rate model framework and parameters that will meet the City’s financial planning
requirements. The objective of this toolset is to offer transparency, functionality, and flexibility
and enable the City to provide robust, data-driven scenarios for executive and policy level
decision-making.
• Customer Statistics Validation
A detailed customer billing statistics validation will be completed for the stormwater utility.
Individual customer data including; number of accounts billed units and square footage or square
footage billing tier will be evaluated and validated against actual revenue collections. This revenue
reconciliation will identify anomalies to be corrected prior to developing future rate structure
alternatives. Validation of the customer statistics data set is critical to the rate study as it
establishes the foundation for expected current revenue and rate structure redesign.
• Revenue Requirement Financial Plan
o Develop a multi-year financial plan for the stormwater utility that identifies the revenue required for
a self-supporting utility – operating, maintenance, administrative, capital, regulatory requirements,
program staffing and financial policies. This task is based on existing operations and informed by
information developed as part of the Stormwater Comprehensive Plan.
o A key part of this task is development of a level of service matrix to capture both existing system
operations, and resolving issues and deficiencies identified in the SCP. The project team and City will
define service levels for consideration and group the utility activities and CIP projects by program area
and level. Often these service levels include current, regulatory compliance, proactive and
comprehensive. The cost and rate impact of achieving each service level will be developed and shared
in a service level matrix format.
o The results of the revenue requirement analysis will be the recommended annual rate strategy
needed to meet the obligations of the utility.
• Cost of Service
The cost of service analysis is intended to provide the analytical basis for equitably recovering the
forecasted revenue requirement from classes of customers according to their use of the system.
The analysis typically involves a two-step process. First, capital and operating costs are allocated
to functional categories such as base and use (water quantity). Second, based on customer class
characteristics for the commercial, industrial, institutional, and residential ratepayers derived
from utility billing system data (such as number of customers, chargeable area, customers that
provide on-site mitigation measures, etc.), distribute the functionally allocated costs to customer
classes. Allocated costs are then compared to current revenue contribution, by customer class, to
determine if each class is paying its proportional cost of service.
• Rate Design
o Rate design considers both the level (amount of revenue that must be generated) and structure (how
the revenue will be collected, or bill assessed). This task will begin with an issue paper This paper will
include an evaluation of the City’s existing rate structure versus other alternatives for City
consideration. Each rate structure option will discuss pros/cons and address how each alternative
ranks against revenue stability, understandability, data needs, implementation and billing system
COML Council Packet 9-26-23, Page 78 of 141
Page 9 of 15
capabilities. The rate impacts will be evaluated consider the existing rate structure by applying rate
needs “across the board” increasing all customer rates and rate categories/tiers equally. The rate
impacts will then be evaluated using the City selected preferred alternative from the issue paper.
o FCS GROUP will work with City staff to develop a work plan for City staff to use in the compilation of
needed customer data for the designated rate structure. The study budget assumes that the City will
conduct any measurements or detailed estimation tasks, with FCS GROUP guidance - GIS data, tax
assessor data or another source to develop the required information needed to support the new
stormwater rate structure calculation. Measured impervious area for all developed, non-single family
parcels will be needed. FCS GROUP will then analyze the customer data for use in the rate design work.
o Monthly bill impacts will be calculated for the rate structure alternative developed. In addition,
comparative survey will be performed with up to five (5) neighboring jurisdictions.

RE: Completion of the periodic update of Moses Lake’s Comprehensive Plan
Dear Mayor Curnel:
Thank you for sending Growth Management Services Ordinance No. 2992. We received this on
November 30, 2021 and processed it with the Material ID 2021-S-3438. This ordinance
indicates the completion of your comprehensive plan review and update required under RCW
36.70A.130. We recognize the substantial investment of time, energy, and resources that these
documents represent. We congratulate you, your planning commission, staff, and involved
citizens for the good work represented by your update.
Next Steps to Complete the Periodic Update:
RCW 36.70A.130(1) requires that counties and cities take action to review and revise, if
necessary, their comprehensive plans and development regulations, including their critical areas
ordinances, every eight-years. At this time, it appears you still need to finalize the review and
update of your development regulations and critical area regulations.
Finalizing the Periodic Update Process:
Commerce recommends that your final legislative action documents the entire review process
and declares that the periodic update required in RCW 36.70A.130(1) is complete. This final
action should outline opportunities for the public to take part in this review, and include findings
that your comprehensive plan and development regulations are consistent with the Growth
Management Act.

State Fiscal Year 2024 Final Water Quality Funding Offer List and Intended Use Plan
Thank you for your time and effort in applying to Ecology for funding for your water quality
project in the State Fiscal Year 2024 (SFY24) Funding Cycle. I am pleased to inform you that your
project has been identified for funding. Please review the following information closely for
more details.
On June 22, 2023, Ecology published the SFY24 Final Water Quality Funding Offer List and
Intended Use Plan7 (Final List). The Final List describes the projects and funding for the SFY24
Funding Cycle from the Centennial Clean Water Program (Centennial), the Clean Water Act
Section 319 Nonpoint Source Fund (Section 319), the Stormwater Financial Assistance Program
(SFAP), the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF), and new federal funding provided to
the CWSRF through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL).
On November 15, 2021, President Joe Biden signed the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act
(IIJA), also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), which Ecology estimates could
provide nearly $200 million in new funding to Washington’s CWSRF over the next five years. For
this SFY 2024 Final List, Washington’s CWSRF has been allocated a total of $36 million in BIL
funds, awarded as part of the CWSRF, and focused on supporting small financially
disadvantaged community projects.
Ecology evaluated 151 applications from local governments, tribes, conservation districts, other
public entities, and qualified not-for-profit organizations. Funding requests totaled
approximately $331 million. To ensure funds are committed to the highest priority projects,
Ecology water quality specialists evaluated and scored all eligible project proposals. Scores were
compiled, and a statewide priority list was developed. Projects proposed for funding are based
7 https://apps.ecology.wa.gov/publications/documents/2310018.pdf
COML Council Packet 9-26-23, Page 88 of 141
upon the priority list, the type of project, and the funding source.
After rating and ranking all eligible proposed projects and providing support for three additional
small financially disadvantaged community phased projects, Ecology offered approximately
$313 million to 126 projects. Detailed information on all proposals received and offered funding
can be found in Appendix 1 in the Final List.
A record of scores and evaluator comments are provided in the Evaluation Scorecard Report
available through Ecology’s Administration of Grants and Loans (EAGL) system. Applicants are
strongly encouraged to review the report, as it will help applicants understand the strengths
and weaknesses of their application. In addition, reviewing the report will help applicants
become aware of any concerns about unclear costs or tasks and/or possible ineligible
components; unclear costs or tasks and/or ineligible components may significantly delay the
development of a funding agreement. To obtain the Evaluation Scorecard Report, follow these
steps.
• Go into your application in EAGL.
• While in the Application Menu, click “View Forms” in the “View, Edit and Complete Forms”
section.
• Scroll down the list of forms to near the bottom.
• Click on “Evaluation Scorecard (External)” in the “Screening/Evaluation/Offer” section.
• Follow the prompts for opening or saving a PDF copy of the report.
I am pleased to inform you that your project is being offered funding of up to $332,500,
including:
• A $0 from CWSRF for a term of 0 years at a 0 percent interest rate.
• A $0 Forgivable Principal loan from CWSRF that will not be required to be repaid.
• A $332,500 grant from SFAP.
• A $0 grant from Centennial.
• A $0 grant from Section 319.
Important Notice. Based on the Washington State Department of Commerce’s Growth Management Act (GMA) compliance list, your community is currently out of compliance. Ecology will not be able to sign a funding agreement until this is resolved. GMA compliance must be complete by January 31, 2021. Be sure to discuss this with your planning office so they are aware this funding is contingent on GMA compliance. If you have any questions, contact Shelly McMurry at shelly.mcmurry@ecy.wa.gov or (564) 999-1649.
The final funding amount awarded for your project will be based on negotiations between you
and Ecology regarding the project scope of work, budget, technical considerations,
reasonableness of cost, and eligibility determinations.
Based on your application, project type, and fund source, various conditions of funding will
COML Council Packet 9-26-23, Page 89 of 141
apply; these will be addressed during the agreement negotiation process. For information on
conditions that may apply, please see Ecology’s SFY24 Funding Guidelines8 and the footnotes
assigned to your project in Appendix 1 in the Final List.
All projects require cultural resources review, and most projects require environmental review.
Please be aware of the requirements for your project and implement the project schedule
accordingly. If you have specific questions, please contact Environmental and Cultural Resource
Coordinator, Liz Ellis, at liz.ellis@ecy.wa.gov or (360) 628-4410 for CWSRF funded projects,
Melissa Conger at melissa.conger@ecy.wa.gov or (360) 706-4202 for SFAP funded projects, or
Seth Elsen, at seth.elsen@ecy.wa.gov, (564) 999-1177 for Centennial funded projects.
Ecology is committed to negotiating and signing a funding agreement no later than January 31,
2024. To meet this timeline and ensure timely use of limited state and federal funds, it is
essential that negotiations and funding agreement development begin as soon as possible.
Please see the typical negotiation timeline on the last page of this letter.

On November 6, 2020, the City of Moses Lake entered into a contract with HopeSource to provide management
services for operations of the Sleep Center located on Broadway Extended. This was following receipt of a
grant award from the State Dept of Commerce intended for the sole purpose of providing services to individuals
experiencing homelessness. The original agreement between the City and HopeSource is attached to this
report and states within Section II that the Time of Performance was between November 1, 2020 and October
31, 2021. The Department of Commerce later extended the time period for the grant to last until September 30,
2023. The State also provided increased funding to be utilized towards management of the Sleep Center. The
additional funding was previously approved by the City through a series of amendments to an Agreement with
Grant County, the entity that administers the State grant funding.
An amendment to the original Agreement is attached, which extends the Time of Performance to the date of
September 30, 2023. A new Exhibit B is also included which will replace the Exhibit B found with the original
contract. The new Exhibit B also reflects the total amount of grant funding that will be reimbursed to
HopeSource during the updated Time of Performance period.

procedures.
Staff will bring back options for recommended changes.
The existing contract will not account for the extended time period of the account nor reflect the increased grant
funding provided by the State Dept of Commerce.

EXHIBIT B
The City of Moses Lake, in partnership with a qualified non-profit community development entity, wi11 develop an initial
response for the chronically homeless under the COVID funding through the development of a camp where residents con
have access to services, sanitation and the ability to be tested and quarantined if there is a positive COVID identification.
The City has previously entered into a contract with HopeSource to utilize COViD-19 Grant Funds. Those funds have
since been re-purposed and the remaining COVID-19 Grant Funds wil1 be utilized for the duration of November 2020
and September 30, 2023, to fund operations of the Sleeping Center, Moses Lake Enhanced Shelter and ESG-CV rapid
rehousing and homeless prevention activities. The budget for the COV/D-19 grant application and Emergency Solutions
Grant follows. The city wil1 provide living quarters (sleeping shelters) sanitation and bathroom facilities, administrative
building and operating expenses and the Contractor will provide wrap around services and overal1 administration of the
program. Over the life of the funding, we are planning on 100 homeless individuals. More than 60% of the homeless in
Grant County reside within the City of Moses Lake. It will take some time for the contractor to reach out to all our
homeless individuals to provide information about the services being offered and the homeless camp area. The plan is to
keep the homeless camp open indefinitely to work with the contractor on a long-term plan to develop emergency shelter
and permanent supportive housing space.

economic instability, who have health issues, mental health or substance use disorders, and those who may experience
a job-loss, family break up, or domestic violence can all be pushed into homelessness at any time.

COORDINATED ENTRY:
Grant County utilizes a low-barrier Coordinated Entry System to identify, engage, and refer households to the proper
services. The purpose of Grant County's crisis response system is to ensure that homelessness is rare, brief, and one-
tame, CE guides households who are experiencing a housing crisis by providing immediate access to the most
appropriate housing program through a standardized assessment, prioritization, and referral process. If possible, CE
COML Council Packet 9-26-23, Page 109 of 141
does not keep waitlists for services. Instead, available services are offered to qualifying households in the hope to assist
with the household's housing crisis immediately.
Prioritization for services is established by Department of Commerce's basic prioritizatlon requirements. If resources are
limited, prioritization will be given to those with the highest need. Need is identified by a score of more than 6 on the
VISPDAT-Vulnerabilitylndex. Forthosewhodonotrnettheprioritization,diversiondiscussionswillbeheld.
