City Council (Legislative) - 001
The City of Moses Lake operates under the council-manager form of government. The seven Council
Members are elected by the voters and represent the entire community. They serve staggered four-
year terms. The Council Members, in turn, select a Mayor and Deputy Mayor from among their
membership to lead the Council’s business meetings and represent the City at official functions. The
Mayor and Deputy Mayor serve for two years.
The City Council hires and evaluates the City Manager, and approves all ordinances, resolutions, and
interlocal agreements of the City, as well as all contracts that exceed the authorized spending authority
of the City Manager, outlined in Resolution 3668. With the guidance of the appointed City Manager, the
Council analyzes proposals to meet community needs, initiates action for new programs and determines
the ability of the City to provide financing for City operations. The Council reviews, modifies and adopts
the balanced annual municipal budget presented by the City Manager.
Work by the Council involves considerable interaction with citizens, commissions, other governmental
agencies, and staff. Regular meetings of the Council are held every second and fourth Tuesday evening
starting at 6:30 p.m. Work sessions are held prior to the regular meeting, if necessary, to devote extra
study to an issue.

Self Insurance/Risk Management - 503
Mission
The Self-Insurance Fund is maintained to separately account for various risk management costs. The
City is a member of the Washington Cities Insurance Authority (WCIA) risk pool. This budget provides
for:
• Administration of the program
• Legal expense and claims adjustment
• The purchase of liability, property, and other miscellaneous insurance coverages
• Dependable Financial Stability
• Underwriting Services
• Broad Deductible Selections
• Comprehensive Claims Administration
• Risk Management Services
• Exclusive Training and Education
As an internal service fund, all operating divisions pay a “premium” to cover the total program. The
allocation is based on intrinsic risk (i.e. number of employees, value of capital assets, etc.), and a factor
for historical claim payments.

Local Fiscal Recovery (ARPA) - 105
ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act) funding is support provided to eligible state, local, territorial, and
tribal governments to help these entities respond to and recover from the COVID-19 emergency.
Specifically, the funds are intended to provide a substantial infusion of resources to help turn the tide on
the pandemic, address its economic fallout, and lay the foundation for a strong and equitable recovery
process.
The Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF) provide substantial flexibility for each
government to meet local needs – including support for households, small businesses, impacted
industries, essential workers, and the communities hardest hit by the crisis. These funds can also be
used to make necessary investments in water, sewer, and broadband infrastructure. There is specific
guidance for the use of the funds in the Interim Final Rule published by the Department of Treasury.
In the City’s 2022 budget process, staff recommended several eligible uses of the funds. In early 2022,
staff carried out a survey to determine if the spending priorities were consistent with citizen’s input.
The result was an updated budget based on input received from the survey and carrying over the
unspent ARPA funds for utilization in 2022. Council approved the updated spending plan for 2022 in
February 2022.
We have evaluated the anticipated spending of ARPA funds through the end of 2022 and have updated
the spending plan for the 2023 budget for Council’s consideration.

Community Development – 004
Mission
The Community Development Department is here to serve the community by proactively planning for
future growth of the city in a safe and responsible manner that honors the past while building on the
values of the community members who live, work and recreate in the City. The department is
comprised of the following four divisions:
• Building
This division regulates all aspects of residential, multi-family, commercial, industrial, and public
buildings activity including new and remodeled construction.
• Planning
This division works with the community to establish long range planning goals and objectives,
and also processes land use actions such as subdivisions, annexations, conditional use permits
and shoreline permits.
• Code Enforcement
This division ensures that nuisances such as weeds, abandoned vehicles and graffiti are cleaned
up in an effort to maintain a safe, healthy environment for our community members. This
division also provides education regarding best practices in appropriate use of water in our arid
region.
• Housing & Homelessness
This division operates the Sleep Center and coordinates with other non-profit providers in the
community to provide for services for those in homeless situations, or who are at-risk of
homelessness. This division also coordinates with the planning division in implementing
strategies to provide safe, decent housing for all.

Community Development – 004
Expenditure Summary
The Community Development budget reflects an increase of $516.4k (25.7%). The largest increase is in
Service Charges ($224k, 133.0%) due to professional services for new software, development code, SMP
and comprehensive plan re-analysis. This is followed by increases in salaries ($200k, 20.2%), benefits
($28.9, 5.8%) as a result of COLA increases and full staffing in 2022, and intergovernmental allocations
($53.9, 18.0%) due to increases in IT and liability insurance costs.
2023 Unbudgeted Requests
Community Development is requesting the addition of two staff in 2023: a long range planner and an
administrative assistant/permit tech. If approved, this request would add $241k to the budget in
additional salary and benefit costs.

Homeless Services - 110
Expenditure Summary
The Homeless Services budget reflects an increase of $2.05M. The largest increase ($1.45M) is due to
the relocation of the Sleep Center from it’s current location by September 2023. Funding for the
relocation was approved by Council from ARPA funds that were received by the City in 2021 and 2022.
The other increase in is Professional Services as a result increased security costs for the sleep center.

Financial Services - 003
Expenditure Summary
The Finance budget reflects an increase of $511.3k (46.7%) from the 2022 Adopted Budget. The
increase is due to professional service costs ($516k) for selection and implementation of a new ERP-FMS
system and increased audit costs, offset by salary/benefit decreases (-$21k) due to splitting one
employees’ costs between Finance and Utility Billing and changes in plan selections for employees.
Intergovernmental allocations increased by $16.5k (14.2%) due to rising liability insurance ($11k) and
software support ($16k) costs offset by a reduction in building maintenance ($10k) costs due to a
change in allocation methods.
2023 Unbudgeted Requests
We are requesting the addition of a Financial Analyst position for 2023. A financial analyst would
provide technical guidance to various City departments and employees and research and analyze
complex issues and trends, develop/create analytical models, reports and policy recommendations
related to City financial matters. The addition of a Financial Analyst would add approximately $123k in
additional salary and benefits to the Finance budget for 2023. The Finance Department had previously
requested the addition of an Administrative Assistant which was denied by prior Council, and we have
subsequently determined that a Financial Analyst would provide more value to the department.
HR and Finance would like to hire a temporary to assist in a scanning project to reduce the amount of
paper documents that are in storage. This would add an additional $11k in salary and benefits to the
budget.
In 2022, Council authorized Finance to hire a consulting firm to assist in preparing an RFP for a new ERP-
FMS system. We anticipate publishing the RFP in mid-November and will close the RFP by the end of
2022. We are requesting a budget of $484k in 2023 for the system implementation, software fees and
the remaining consulting service fees that were approved in 2022 but will not be spent by year-end.

Central Services – Utility Services – 517-514
Expenditure Summary
The Utility Services budget reflects an increase of $130.6k (13.7%) from the 2022 Adopted Budget. The
increase is due to salary/benefit ($62.5k, 15.14%) increases due to COLA and position changes in 2022.
This is followed by an increase in Machinery & Equipment ($35.6k) to purchase new meter reading
equipment required to replace outdated equipment that is no longer being serviced and
intergovernmental services ($28.4k, 32%) due to increased IT costs.
2023 Unbudgeted Requests
We are requesting the addition of a second Utility Billing (UB) Technician position in 2023. The current
Utility Billing system requires significant workarounds to provide accurate billings and readings to
customers. A second UB Technician would distribute the workload and afford current staff time to
determine and implement system fixes and solutions. The addition of a UB Technician would add
approximately $92.3k in additional salary and benefits to the Utility Services budget for 2023.
The existing Itron meter reading equipment is being phased out and parts are getting difficult to locate.
New equipment would be supported for several years and would provide the ability to read meters
using updated technology (RFID?). The cost for two would increase the budget by an additional $36k for
the equipment and $3k for software and installation.

Firemen’s Pension - 611
Mission
This fund provides for a single-employer, defined benefit pension plan to retired firefighters employed
prior to 3/1/1970 as governed by Washington State Law RCW 41.16 and 41.18. Pension benefits for
firefighters that were hired after March 1, 1970 are covered by the Washington Law Enforcement
Officers and Firefighters’ Retirement System (LEOFF). If firefighters were active in the period from
3/1/1970 to 9/30/1977, they are considered members of the LEOFF 1 retirement plan. Under governing
law, the City pension member is entitled to payment from the City’s pension plan for those benefits in
excess of those calculated under the LEOFF plan.
LEOFF 1 members are also eligible for 100% reimbursement of necessary medical expenses. These
benefits are being paid out of the Fire budget in General Fund, and there have been no transfers into
the fund to date. The current Fire Insurance Premium Tax distribution has not exceeded the annual
pension payments thus far.
There are 4 retirees and/or dependents (out of 5 eligible) who are currently receiving this pension
benefit.
The revenue source for this fund is a state-shared revenue distribution of Fire Insurance Premium Tax
calculated based on the ratio of paid firefighters in the state. Currently this annual distribution is
exceeding the pension payments. However, recent discussion at the state legislature included
discontinuing this distribution to cities. The fund will support pension benefits and LEOFF 1 medical
benefits up to the current revenue. Any excess in the fund after all future benefits have been paid can
be transferred to General Fund.

Tourism Activities/Lodging Taxes - 102
In accordance with RCW 67.28.180, the City imposes a 2% tax on all charges for furnishing lodging at
hotels, motels, and similar establishments. This tax is taken as a credit against the 6.5% state sales tax—
in other words it does not add to the sales tax charged for lodging. The City has called this the “first”
2%” lodging tax. We also levy a local option 2% tax in accordance with RCW 67.28.181, the “second 2%”
which brings the total received by the City to 4% of the lodging charges.
The guiding principle for the use of lodging taxes is that they must be used for activities, operations and
expenditures designed to increase tourism. State law requires that all requests to use hotel/motel tax
be vetted by a Lodging Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC), that is made up of generators (i.e. hoteliers),
and users of the tax in the same ratio.
Historically, the City, through the Parks Department, has committed the first 2% of the tax to debt; most
recently the cumulative balance that has been built up in the “first 2%” has been allocated to the
planning and design of the Larson Recreation Center, which broke ground in 2021, and debt was issued
through the State’s LOCAL program. In 2022, $319,200 of the estimated tax collection is also going for
debt service for this project, since the ongoing tax stream has been pledged for debt service on this new
facility.
Each year, the City’s LTAC convenes to evaluate use of the “second 2%”, and the LTAC has reviewed the
proposals. The budget includes the available amount of $324,800. LTAC makes its recommendation to
City Council, who will review and approve a final allocation among the applicants.
The Hotel/Motel tax is seeing a rebound since the COVID 19 pandemic. The total tax collected was
$578,429 in 2020 growing to $7778,827 in 2021 and projected to be over $800,000 in 2022. Because of
the ongoing uncertainty about the economy due to high inflation, prices and how people’s travel habits
will respond, we have made a conservative estimate of $680,000 for 2023. Losses in tax revenue of
$190,000 in 2020 were approved by the prior Council to be reimbursed using ARPA funds and will be
transferred into the fund by year-end 2022.

Unemployment Compensation – 501
The Unemployment Compensation Fund is maintained to cover unemployment claims filed by former
employees. The City is self-insured for this function, and pays the cost of claims plus some
administration to the State instead of paying premiums. Equifax is our third-party claims administrator.
Historically, the balance in this fund had been built up, so the program has been operating without
any “premiums” from the operating divisions to cover the total program. In 2019, because the fund
balance had been depleted, premiums were reinstated. The largest user of unemployment is the Parks
seasonal employee program, so Parks will pay the largest share of the estimated benefit. Other users
are other seasonal programs in Code Enforcement, Streets, Water, and Fleet Maintenance. In both 2022
and 2023, the budget is set with the actual assumed usage charged back to the applicable operation.

Solid Waste – Sanitation – 490
The overarching goal of the Solid Waste utility is to protect the public health and safety of all residents
of the City by providing quality solid waste services that are efficient, cost effective and environmentally
responsible. This is accomplished through a contract with Lakeside Disposal, which collects and disposes
of all garbage, yard waste and recyclable material within the City of Moses Lake. Because the Utility Billing Department manages the waste hauling contract; interfaces with the
contractor to produce accurate bills; and develops the rates to bill our customers, this operation is
included with Finance, and not Municipal Services.
The annual adjustment for contracted disposal fees resulted in a 5% increase to the hauler effective
September 1. This increase was calculated based on the year over year percentage change of the
Consumer Price Index (CPI-W). The fund balance has improved sufficiently that we are not requesting a
customer rate increase in 2023.
We have been without a yard waste program since 2020 when the former provided decided not to
renew the contract. We have reviewed options in prior years, but other priorities have taken precedent
in 2022 and we need to revisit our options in 2023. When we have a better estimate of viable options
and costs, we will bring it back for Council approval—it is not currently in the 2023 budget.

Interfund Loan Repayments
Miscellaneous Services - 006
This set of accounts in General Fund is used to account for payments made to Outside Agencies (e.g.
Grant County Auditor for election costs; the local Chamber of Commerce; the Grant County Health
District; the Moses Lake Senior Opportunity and Services; etc.) This is also where the interfund support
by General Fund resides. These operating transfers are made either to fund obligated debt service
payments, or to allocate tax revenues to other operations. Expenses that are General Fund in nature,
but not allocable to any specific operation are also included in this section. Examples would include
miscellaneous taxes and assessments. The Police station remodel or new build transfer for LOCAL
borrowing debt service is estimated at approximately $378,000 and is incorporated into the 2023
budget. The increase in debt service is offset with a reduction of Streets transfer. The transfer to the
Streets Fund for 2023 is budgeted at

Library – 007
Per the contract with the North Central Regional Library System (District), if the City of Moses Lake is to
have a “brick and mortar” library, the City needs to provide the building. The District provides for the
mail order – multi county library system through a long-standing property tax levy. The City has provided
the building and through a maintenance and operations agreement with the District, the City performs
maintenance, insures, and pays the utilities for the facility, and the District provides a lease payment to
offset the maintenance and operations of the building. This lease payment provides an approximate
$40,000 each year, but actual costs for the City are higher reflected in the budget chart below.
The City and the District negotiated an amendment to the lease in 2019 which ends in 2023.
A 2020 needs assessment, carried out by the District, indicated $488,000 in capital needs for the
building. Knowing the needs of the building and based on a desire expressed by the City and
Community through the Creative District Process, the Regional Library District has announced the
support of reinvestment in several of it’s branches, and Moses Lake is on the list. The City and District
will work cooperatively to develop an updated capital program for beyond 2023 and a new agreement
will be negotiated.

Police Department – 030
Expenditure Summary
The Police budget reflects an increase of $1.2m (12.6%). The largest increase is in salaries ($520k,
10.7%) and benefits ($113k, 5.6%) as a result of added staff approved for 2022 and wage increases
negotiated through 2025, coupled with increased overtime and training costs. Supplies increased by
$112k, (46.5%) because of additional computer software support, firearms/ammunition and general
supply cost increases. Service charges increased $126k (8.9%) due to increased MACC and Grant County
Animal Outreach contract costs as well as increased costs for the Flock ALRP cameras, hearings
examiner, background, and security costs. Intergovernmental allocations increased by $361k (28.0%)
due to increased IT costs, liability insurance, building maintenance and fleet equipment costs.
2023 Unbudgeted Requests
The Police Department is requesting the addition of four (4) police officers, a police detective, and a
criminal analyst in 2023. If approved, these positions would add $681.7k in salary and benefit costs to
the 2023 budget.

FUTURE NEEDS
Over past six years we have added 12 new positions to the department. Two positions filled the K9 spots, two filled the Traffic positions, two were assigned to Street
Crimes, two were assigned as SROs, one to Major Crimes, one to Community Outreach, and two were assigned to Patrol.
Because we had started new programs such as K9, Traffic, Street Crimes, and added to SROs we needed additional staffing for those programs.
In the coming years, and with growth of the city, we will need to continue to grow our Patrol Division to meet the needs of the community. As mentioned above, we will
respond to over 20,000 calls for service this year, which will be the highest call volume we have ever seen. We have seen a nearly 12% increase in calls for service in the
past three years. We currently run with a four-officer minimum per shift, which is too low for the number of calls and the types of calls that we respond to. Each Patrol
officer is “responsible” for approximately 700-800 calls for service each year and respond to more than 1200 calls. We need to get to a minimum staffing of six officers
per crew, which would take hiring an additional 8-12 officers.
With population growth expected to be around 2% per year, we will need to add one to two patrol positions per year to keep in line with the workload. If the city chooses
to annex large areas of the surrounding area such as the Mae Valley, Cascade Valley or Base area, those patrol needs will be significantly higher to cover the added area
and population. It is anticipated that if the Base housing area were to be annexed into the city, we would need an additional eight patrol officers, one to two additional
detectives and one additional clerk.
The Space Needs Analysis that was conducted by Rolluda Architects projected that within 10 years the department would need approximately 25,000 square feet to meet
our staffing needs. In the 10-year period from 2023 to 2033 solely based on a 2% growth rate we would need an additional 10-12 Patrol officers and likely an additional
two detectives to meet the needs. Additional officers would more than likely also require at least one additional clerical staff to handle the increased reports.
With additional space afforded through a new building, we would have the ability to bring in some Federal partners to our area. I have been in discussions with ATF
about brining an ATF agent to Moses Lake on a permanent basis so long as they had an office within our building.
A question was asked about building satellite stations throughout the city in conjunction with fire stations. While having satellite stations around the city in fire stations
is a great idea and has been done in cities like Kennewick, Pasco, and Spokane for decades, each of these cities still has a main police station. The main station is used
for all business dealings including licensing, fingerprinting, records maintenance, investigations, interviews, patrol briefings, community events, press briefings, workout
equipment, training, vehicle and weapons storage, and a whole host of other uses. If we were to build a new station on Central Dr, we would keep our satellite office at
fire station 2, would add a satellite office on the south end of the city when/if fire station 3 is built and would add similar satellite offices to any fire stations built in the
Mae Valley or Cascade Valley area. If the city were to annex the Base area, we would look at using the sheriff’s substation on the base for a satellite office.
Lastly, our department is heavily involved in community events and activities. Annually we participate in National Night Out, Faith & Blue, Citizen’s Academy, Touch
a Truck, Spring Fest, Freedom Fest, and numerous fundraising activities. Having a new building with a “community” room would allow us to host these events within
the confines of our building and would give our officers more opportunities to socialize and interact with our citizens. We would move several of our community events
to our building and could increase the number of events to add open houses, coffee with a cop, and other such programs for more community interaction.
REMODEL/ADDITION OF BALSAM ST LOCATION PROS
• Savings of $656,254 to $2,227,404 versus’ building new
• Remain close to other city services
CONS
• Remodeling would limit options based on footprint and existing walls
• Limited space for exterior buildings (garage, TRT vehicle storage, large
evidence storage)
• Cost of portable space for a year during remodel
• Where to temporarily move/place portables during remodel
• Accessibility from location over the next 30+ years
• Building could be repurposed for other city departments and services

DEPARTMENT DIVISIONS ADMINISTRATION DIVISION
• There are four administrative staff within the police department. The Police Chief, Patrol Captain, Support Services Captain and Administrative
Assistant make up the Administration Division.
PATROL DIVISION
PATROL
• Four crews staffed with one sergeant, one corporal, and four officers.
• The crews work 12-hour shifts with a minimum staffing of four.
• With calls for service reaching 20,000 this year, additional officers will be needed to keep up with calls.
• The corporals and officers currently work out of a shared space that is not big enough for their needs. The patrol sergeants share two offices between the four of them.
K9
• Two K9 officers that work with Patrol on opposite shifts allowing for
seven-day coverage. The K9 officers currently share office space with
the SROs and MHP counselor. TRAFFIC
• In 2023 will have two traffic officers that will work with patrol on opposite shifts that will allow for seven-day coverage. Will handle all
accidents and traffic related calls. Once in place, the traffic officers
would be required to work out of the patrol room as there is no other
space available.
SCHOOL RESOURCE
• Four SROs that work in the fifteen district schools. SROs are assigned office space within the schools, but complete reports and do follow-up from an office in the PD. COMMUNITY SERVICES
• Two CSOs that handle animal control, public code enforcement issues
and issue photo enforcement citations. They currently have an office that
they share between the two of them.
COMMUNITY OUTREACH
• In 2023 will have an officer assigned at the COO. This officer will work with service providers, homeless citizens, Drug Court participants, and
youth related services. This position will also need to work out of the
patrol room as no other space is available.
CO-RESPONDER PROGRAM
• Currently have an MHP counselor assigned to our office through RENEW. The grant is funded for a two-year period at which we would like to hire a fulltime MHP that would work exclusively with MLPD. RESERVE OFFICER PROGRAM
• We currently have two reserve officers who work with patrol and use
patrol resources.
SUPPORT SERVICES DIVISION
INVESTIGATIONS
• There is currently one detective sergeant, one detective corporal, three major crimes detectives and three street crimes detectives. This division has seen the most growth within the past few years doubling in size. With continued major crimes and drug issues within the city, I anticipate that this division will continue to see growth. A request has been made
for the 2023 budget to add one crime analyst and one more major crime
detective.
RECORDS
• We currently have a records supervisor and three records technicians. Our records staff handles lobby traffic, phone calls, and all records, including the dissemination of public records. While this division has not seen growth in the past several years, a request has been made for an additional clerk to assist with public records. EVIDENCE
• We have one evidence technician that handles more than 10,000 pieces of
evidence. She is also responsible for crime scene response and
photography and handling organizing community events. We are limited on space for evidence and greatly need to expand our evidence storage area. VOLUNTEERS
• We have five volunteers that assist with records, fingerprinting, scanning
old files and documents. We would like to increase our volunteer pool to
include a Volunteer on Patrol program that could help with parking
enforcement, vacation checks, and assist with patrol high vandalism
areas. The issue is that we have no space or vehicles available to start
such a program and would also need to assign a coordinator that could take on the additional duties. CHAPLAINS
• We have four chaplains that work with patrol for death notifications and other such duties as needed. The Chaplains work primarily with patrol and do not need additional space.
