HOSES LAKE
The City Council previously passed Ordinance No. 2662 fixing the amount to be received
for municipal purposes from taxations on assessed valuations on property within the City
of Moses Lake, Washington for 2013. Upon presentation of the ordinance to the
Assessors office, I was told that in order to preserve the 2011 tax levy amount of
$10,222,955, the ordinance needed to be revised . The reduction in the 2012 tax levy
amount of $8,681 ,816 came about because of an action of the state in reducing the levy
because of the REC appeal of its tax assessment.
I have prepared a revised ordinance amending Ordinance No. 2662 reflecting the
preservation of the City's 2011 tax le vy amount but still indicating that the 2011 levy
amount has been increased by the statutorily allowed 1 %.
The proposed ordinance is presented to you for your consideration . This ordinance must
be in the hands of the County by November 30 as is required by law.
Respectfully submitted

D. The City of Moses Lake's actual levy amount from the previous year, 2012. was $8,681 ,816, which was reduced from

Property Tax Resolution
City of Moses Lake Example.xl sx
I am sorry I missed your call earlier today. I will be in a meeting between 2:00pm and 3:00, then I will be leaving the
office at 3:00 for the rest of the day.
I looked up some levy information for the City of Moses Lake and hopefully can get sta rted with some guidance in this
message in case we do not end up talking this afternoon.
RCW 84.55.120 requires taxing districts to adopt a resolution/ordinance specifying an increase in the terms of dollars
and percentage of change compared to the districts prior year's levy. According to the information available to me, the
city's prior year's levy amount was $8,681,816.
Your district could have levied as much as $10,222,955 last year. This is referred to as your highest lawful levy since
1985. If your district adopts a resolution/ordinance compliant with RCW 84.55.120, the highest lawful levy will
automatically be increased by 1%. That one percent increase will result in a levy capacity, before additional funds for
new construction, etc., of $10,325,184.
I have attached an incomplete levy limit worksheet to help illustrate the two limits. As yo u will see the 1% increase over
the highest lawful levy on page 1 bala nces with the "actual levy limit", based on an adopted resolution/ordinance with
an increase of 18.9288503% compared to the districts prior year's levy amount. I estimated an increase of $200,000 for
new construction. Gail will be able to provide you with a more accurate number here than I can.
If your council members want to levy this amount, they must adopt a resolution/ordinance authorizing an increase of
$1,643,368 which is a percentage increase of 18.9288503 as compared to your prior year's levy of $8,681,816.
If your council members adopt a resolution/ordinance with a lesser dollar and percentage change they will not be
levying at their highest lawful levy amount, which is okay.
I hope this helps!

successor) resigns from its functions as depository, and no substitute depository can be obtained,
or (B) the Finance Director determines that it is in the best interest of the beneficial owners of the
Bonds that such owners be able to obtain the Bonds in the form of certificates, the ownership of
such Bonds may then be transferred to any person or entity as herein provided, and shall no
longer be held in fully-immobilized form. The Finance Director shall deliver a written request to
the Registrar, together with a supply of definitive Bonds, to issue Bonds as herein provided in

acknowledge such receipt to the City in writing.
Article 3. Creation and Operation of Escrow Fund

The City represents that, based upon the infonnation provided in the Verification Report,

provide moneys for transfer to the Paying Agent at the times and in the amounts required to pay
the interest on the Refunded Bonds as such interest comes due and the principal of the Refunded
Bonds as the Refunded Bonds are paid on an optional redemption date prior to maturity, all as
more fully set forth in Exhibit E attached hereto. If, for any reason, at any time, the cash
balances on deposit or scheduled to be on deposit in the Escrow Fund shall be insufficient to
transfer the amounts required by the Paying Agent to make the payments set forth in Section 3.2.

certified public accountants that such transaction will not cause the amount of money and
securities in the Escrow Fund to be reduced below an amount sufficient to provide for the full
and timely payment of principal of and interest on all of the remaining Refunded Bonds as they
become due, taking into account any optional redemption thereof exercised by the City in
connection with such transaction; and (b) the Escrow Agent shall have received the unqualified
written legal opinion of its bond counselor tax counsel to the effect that such transaction will not
cause any of the Bonds or Refunded Bonds to be an "arbitrage bond" within the meaning of

Article 5. Application of Cash Balances
Section 5.1. In General.
Except as provided in Section 2.1, 3.2 and 4.2 hereof, no withdrawals, transfers or

Emies' contractor removes and replaces the driveways. The existing widths of the driveways are
approximately 42 feet and 82 feet. The widest driveway allowed in the Community Street and
Utility Standards is 40 feet.
For comparison, the width of Broadway Avenue is approximately 78 feet, which is five traffic
lanes and two parking lanes. The reasons for restricting the widths of driveways include a shorter
distance for pedestrians to cross, causes vehicles to enter and exit the street perpendicular instead
of at a skew, and causes vehicles to enter and exit the street in an orderly fashion.
These driveways were installed by a city contractor in 1986 before the driveway standards existed.

Dear Mr. Harer:
Fuel Stops
This letter is pertaining to our fuel stop location at 1810 E. Kittleson Rd. in Moses Lake,
Washington. As you know from our discussions and meetings, our company has agreed to spend
a substantial sum of money to help support the standing water issue on Kittleson Road. As part
of that project, we are electing to repair our existing driveways for the betterment of our
customers and overall general aesthetics.
We are respectfully requesting that in the ' repair of the two driveways, that we are able to keep
the lengths of the driveways unchanged and in tact as they currently stand. We have a pre-
existing condition with our existing business operation. Our building, fuel pumps and driveways
are located dependant on large trucks that need long approaches to properly and safely reach our
pumps. I understand that the city has a code for the building of new dirveways of a certain length
for new construction; however, we believe that this code should not be applied in this
circumstance because of our pre-existing business operation that has functioned safely for many
years.
We are willing participants in the improvement of our location to support our responsibilities and
to support the City in improving the condition of the Kittleson Road for us and our neighbors;
however, reducing the width of our driveways would adversely effect our business operations
and something that we cannot agree to accommodate.
My understanding is that the procedure to resolve this issue is for us to attend the City Council
meeting to present this request for deviation. Kevin Richards from Western Pacific Engineering
will be representing our interest at the appropriate City Council meeting to resolve thls matter.
Please let me know if you have any questions or if you need anything else from our end.
Sincerely,
~u

SUBJECT: Library Assessable Restrooms
Staff has reviewed the options to acquire an assessable restroom in the Library. The most
economical solution is to convert the existing janitor closet to an assessable restroom, and convert
janitorial closet to a unisex assessable restroom. The library staff would be required to also use
this restroom. The work would require moving a wall approximately one foot, moving a built-in
desk approximately one foot, and installing 4-foot tall wall to define the corridor to the restroom.
Other options are to covert the Librarian office into a restroom and partitioning off anther space
for her office, or installing a restroom in the conference room. Both of the options would cost
approximately $40,000 -$50,000.
Staff can make the modifications to convert the janitorial closet into a restroom. The cost of
materials is estimated to be $6,000. If this plan is approved, the Building Division would like to
start work in the next week since the end of November and the first part of December are not quite
so busy for them.
Staff is requesting direction for the improvements.
