IV. PUBLIC APPEARANCES
Hugh Robinson Central Point business owner
Mr. Robinson wanted to inform the Council of a property dispute happening with
their property and the new owners next door. They have been visited by the
Police Department and spoken with the Planning Department for several weeks.
The new owners have been encroaching on their property using it for delivery of
goods to the store next door. This takes up their parking spaces. Mr. Robinson
stated that they will be installing a fence which will hopefully stop the illegal use
of their property. It is a volatile issue at times because the new owner does not
understand the property line issues. He wanted to express gratitude to both the
Planning Department and the Police Department for their help and understanding
of the issue. Mayor Williams explained that both Departments have been keeping
them aware of the issues.

Nuisances in Regards to Home Gown Marijuana and Medical
Marijuana
Police Chief Kris Allison explained this is the second reading of an ordinance
adding nuisances affecting public health including homegrown or medical
marijuana grows. Any violation of Chapter 8.45 shall be deemed a nuisance
affecting public health including homegrown or medical marijuana grows. This
ordinance includes but not limited to odors emanating from the premise; noise
from grow operations emitting from the premises; visibility of marijuana from
outside the household; and failure to maintain such marijuana cultivation within a
secure structure.
The reference to residential zones has been removed from the ordinance. As
stated at the first reading we would like this ordinance to cover all zones not just
residential zones.

B. Ordinance No. 2012, An Ordinance Amending Section 8.02.010
Definitions Chronic Nuisance Property in Central Point Municipal
Code
Chief Allison stated the proposed ordinance adds nuisance activities to include
violation of Chapter 8.45 regulating homegrown and medical marijuana. This
ordinance will allow the City to deem a violation of chapter 8.45 as a chronic
nuisance property if violations occur. The reference to residential zones has been
removed from the ordinance in order to be consistent with the previous
ordinance.

land to the Central Point Urban Growth Boundary (UGB). The City Council
passed a resolution of intent in 2013 to initiate changes to the UGB in response
to a request by Cardmoore Trucking to bring their property at Seven Oaks
Interchange into the City of Central Point. In order to extend the UGB to the
Cardmoore property, the City completed an earlier UGB amendment south of this
proposal in order for it to be contiguous. The property being added to the UGB
will retain the County Comprehensive Plan designation and zoning until such
time as the properties are annexed and the appropriate City zoning is applied.
Mayor Williams opened the Public Hearing. No one came forward and the public
hearing was closed.
There was discussion about the next steps in the process. The property owners
are eager to get things moving but realize it is a long process. Both the County
Planning Commission and the Central Point Planning Commission recommended
approval of this expansion.
We must take into consideration the creation of Conceptual Land Use and
Transportation Plans, the adoption of an Interchange Agreement Management
Plan for Seven Oaks Interchange Area, and the formation of and receipt of
recommendations from a County Appointed Agricultural Task Force. Each of
these conditions have been addressed.
Mike Quilty moved to second reading An Ordinance Amending the

H. Resolution No. 1425, A Resolution Revising the Classification Pay
Plan
Mr. Clayton explained that this is an annual resolution to reaffirm any revisions
that may have been done to the Pay Plan with a ratification of a collective
bargaining agreement.
Part A of the pay plan has updated position titles. The union contract negotiated
in 2014 included a cost of living adjustment or July 1, 2015 based on the January
to January, All cities CPI with a range of 0 to 3.5%. The CPI change was a
negative amount, so no cost of living adjustment was made to the pay scale.
Part B of the pay plan also has updated position titles. This group bargained for a
COLA based on the CPI with a 0 to 4% range. There is no cost of living
adjustment this year. The union recently requested to change the Master Police
Officer position title back to Corporal effective July 1.
Part C of the pay plan reflects no change in salary range amounts but does move
the Accountant/Supervisor position from Band I to Band I. This position's pay
band was not adjusted when the supervisory duties were added to the position
last year.

Insurance requires that the City pass such a resolution annually. This resolution
continues the current practice of providing workers' compensation coverage for
city volunteers. The proposed resolution includes a category for committee
members, the Council, Police volunteers, Kidventure volunteers and other
various program areas. This does not cover volunteers for special events such as
the Battle of the Bones.

A. Freeman Road Waterline Replacement
Parks and Public Works Director Matt Samitore stated that the City was able to
work out an agreement with the current contractor for Freeman Road. The price
was increased and will take up the entire 2015/17 capital water fund. The detour
signs are in place and the street is closed to through traffic. Understandably
residents are irritated by the project but it will be a nice improvement when it is all
done.
IX. MAYOR'S REPORT
Mayor Williams reported that he:
• Attended two nights of the Wild Rogue Pro Rodeo, there was a great turnout
for the event that Central Point is proud to sponsor.
• Attended the Fairboard meeting. They have offered Helen Funk the position
of Expo Manager.
• Attended the Medford Chamber Forum to hear the County Manager's state of
the County Address.
• Attended the Medford Water Commission meeting. He read into the record
the following statement:
"I have a growing concern with the Medford Water Commission. It started
out with staff recommending a 7% across the board increase in water rates,
which 5% was approved by the commission members. This was before the
Rate Study was complete. General comments at the commission meetings
indicated that substantial rate increases were in order.
At a subsequent meeting the commission approved a $17 million dollar
project for the Flock -Sed basin (necessary for duff plan expansion). That
amount is more than double what the amount was estimated several years
ago. This project was over a three year period, in addition to other capital
projects. I believe this is necessary to take the Duff plant to 61 million gallons
per day.
At the last meeting staff indicated that the commission would have a
serious cash flow problem and presented three alternatives to suspend
payments to capital fund reserves. The commission did not take action at the
last meeting, but it was indicated that an additional "across the board" rate
increase would be required. The commission was presented with several
options before narrowing in on a three year 11.9% per year increase plan.
The new rate study is due out on July 1". We have no indications except
that rates will go up, and if past actions are any indication, the Medford Water
Commission will continue to take advantage of the cities that purchase
water."
X. CITY MANAGER'S REPORT
City Manager Chris Clayton reported that:
• There is a new Library Services Director. She will introduce herself at the
next City Council meeting.
• He had a meeting with Combined Transport earlier today. They are eager to

Tom Humphrey, AICP
Community Development Director
AGENDA ITEM: File No. 14009
Second Reading of an Ordinance to Amend the Comprehensive Plan Map (Minor) to add approximately
47 acres to the City of Central Point Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) north of Interstate 5, east and west
of Blackwell Road in the vicinity of the Seven Oaks Interchange (Exit 35) including portions of Dean
Creek Road. County File No. LRP 2013-00006 and City File No. 14009; Applicant: City of Central
Point.
STAFFSOURCE:
Tom Humphrey AICP , Community Development Director
BACKGROUND:
The adoption of the proposed Minor Map Amendment would amend the County and City Comprehensive
Plan Maps by adding approximately 47 acres of employment land to the Central Point UGB. The City
Council passed a Resolution of Intent (No. 1378) in August 2013 to initiate changes to its UGB in
response to a request by Cardmoore Trucking to bring their property at Seven Oaks Interchange into the
City of Central Point. In order to extend the UGB to the Cardmoore property, the City completed an
earlier UGB Amendment south of this proposal in order for it to be contiguous.
The land proposed for amendment includes property that is in the ownership of the Card Family and
Stallion Land Company. There are some portions of right-of-way that are either under thejurisdiction of
Jackson County or the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT). The land being added to the UGB
will retain the County Comprehensive Plan designation and zoning until such nine as the properties are
annexed and the appropriate City zoning is applied. The City Council conducted a public hearing on this
item at their last meeting, made no revisions and moved the Ordinance to this second reading.
ISSUES:
City and County's Regional Plan Elements include a provision that prior to expansion q/ the Central
Paint Urban Grax•th Banndary into ani Urban Reserve Area, the C!N and Jackson Cannty shall adapt an
agreement (Area afMuhral planning Concern) far the management a(Gibbons/forest Acres
Unincorporated Containment Boundary (Performance Indicators 4.1.9.5). The two agencies concluded
that the best way to address this condition was to amend the pre-existing City/Conray agreement. The
UGBMA was adopted earlier this year and this Regional Plan provision was satisfied.
Other conditions of the Regional Plan Element include; 1) the creation of Conceptual Land Use and
Transportation Plans (Performance Measure 4.1.7 and 4.1.8); 2) the adoption of an Interchange Area
Management Plan (LAMP) for Seven Oaks Interchange Area (Performance Measure 4.1.9.1); and 3) the
formation of and receipt of recommendations from a County Appointed Agricultural Task Force
(Performance Measure 4.1.20).
Each of these conditions have been addressed. The City Council may recall its approval of a Conceptual
Plan for URA CP -1 B. This plan has been vetted and approved by the Rogue Valley MPO and by the
Rogue River Valley Irrigation District. Regarding issues of roadway access, the applicant has worked out
CAP062515 Page 11
temporary and long range access to their property from Blackwell Road. City staff participated in the
Agricultural Task Force and contributed to the recommendations the Comity Board of Commissioners
incorporated in the Comity Comprehensive Plan.
FINDING: The proposed UGB Amendment may proceed having satisfied conditions and being in
compliance with the GBCVRP Performance Indicators, adopted pursuant to the requirements of ORS
197.656(2)(b)(C).
The City has criteria for initiating amendments to the comprehensive plan or the urban growth boundary
(ref. CPMC Section 17.96.200). The Urban Growth Boundary Management Agreement with Jackson
County also provides a process for considering and adopting this UGB Amendment.
FINDING: The proposed Minor Boundary Line Adjustment is consistent with the Central Point
Municipal Code - Comprehensive Plan and Urban Grox•th Boundary Amendments and with the
City/County UGBMA and it also satisfies the requirements of the GBCVRP and the City's Regional Plan
Element.
The County's record requirements are fairly extensive with a file consisting of 971 pages. This file and
City documents that have part of our proceedings subsequent to the Joint City/County Planning
Commission meeting have been retained in the Community Development Department. An Ordinance
Amending the Comprehensive Plan Map is the only attachment included in the second and final reading.
ATTACHMENTS:
Attachment "A"— Ordinance No. An Ordinance Amending the Comprehensive Plan Map (Minor) to
Add Approximately 47 acres to the Central Point Urban Growth Boundary north of Interstate 5,east and
west of Blackwell Road in the vicinity of the Seven Oaks Interchange (Exit 35) including portions of
Dean Creek Road.
ACTION:
Conduct the second reading of the proposed admendment to the Urban Growth Boundary and 1)
approve the ordinance; 2) approve the ordinance with revisions; 3) deny the proposal.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the ordinance and approve an amendment to the UGB.

AGENDA ITEM: Discussion of the draft franchise agreement being negotiated between the
City of Central Point and Rogue Valley Sanitary Sewer.
STAFF SOURCE:
Chris Clayton, City Manager
BACKGROUND/SYNOPSIS
The City of Central Point currently maintains franchise agreements with the following franchisees:
Pacific Power & Light (Pacific Corp.); Avista Utilities; Charter Communications; Hunter
Communications (Core Digital); L.S. Networks; Qwest Communications; Rogue Disposal and
Recycling and the City of Central Point (5% franchise on the City's water system). Each of these
franchised utilities currently pays a franchise fee for use of the City of Central Point's public right-
of-way. Current franchise rates vary from 5%-6% of gross revenues (within Central Point
boundaries), largely due to length of existing agreements. Recently expired agreements have been
renegotiated at 6%, while agreements with future expirations have remained at their previously
negotiated rate of 5%.
In 2012, the City of Phoenix became the first city to pass a franchise ordinance which places
operating requirements, and a franchise fee, on Rogue Valley Sewer Services (RVSS). RVSS has
opposed the implementation of such a franchise fee and, ultimately, challenged the City of
Phoenix's authority in court. The adjudication of this issue has resulted in both the Circuit Court
and Oregon Court of Appeals reaffirming the City of Phoenix's `home -rule' authority to impose a
franchise fee on RVSS, even though they are designated a special sewer district under Oregon
Revised Statute Chapter 450. This issue will receive final consideration from the Oregon Supreme
Court during the calendar year 2015.
Realizing the uncertainty of Oregon Supreme Court's pending decision on this issue, the City of
Central Point recently passed a general utility license fee ordinance which allowed for alternate
right-of-way use compensation should the court rule in favor of Rogue Valley Sewer Services. A
negotiated franchise agreement remains an option under the general utility license fee ordinance,
and this has been the preferred alternative of Rogue Valley Sewer Services.
The attached draft franchise agreement represents the initial review by both the City of Central
Point and Rogue Valley Sewer Services. Council discussion and feedback will be useful in
determining the specifics of a final agreement. The target for having an adopted agreement in place
is mid-July to early August.

STAFF REPORT

AGENDA ITEM: Discussion Item Only —Council discussion related to the Medford Water
Commission's recent announcement that cash Bow -related issues could result in substantial
rate increases for the "other cities" customer group.
STAFFSOURCE:
Chris Clayton, City Manager
BACKGROUND/SYNOPSIS:
At the June 3", 2015 Medford Water Commission (MWC) study session titled "Financial Policies',
it was revealed that the Medford Water Commission is considering dramatic rate increases (11.9%
for 3 consecutive years) to offset "recently discovered," current cash flow-related issues. These
proposed rate increases would be in addition to the recent "interim" 5% "across the board" rate
increase. Also, the MWC is currently engaged in an ongoing rate study, being performed by third
party consultant HDR, which will likely recommend future rate increases beginning in January
2016. Given all of these potential increases, the "other cities' customer group could realize overall
rate increases as high as 40%-50% by the calendar year 2018.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The following Medford Water Commission rate increases have been approved or are currently
under consideration:
I. Interim 5% rate increase (approved/implemented in March 2015).
2. Cash flow offset rate increases recommended at 11.9% for fiscal years 2015-2016; 2016-
2017; and 2017-2018.
3. HDR rate study recommendation (estimated at 8%-10%).
ATTACHMENTS:
I. Information supplied at the June 3", 2015 Medford Water Commission Study Session.
RECOMMENDATION:
L Council briefing/overview of proposed Medford Water Commission rate increases and cash
flow related issues.
2. Review of City's written response (to be delivered at a later date).
3. Future direction.

THE RULES
1. Maintain a value of one year worth of operating expenses in the Water Construction Fund
2. Fund the Future Main Replacement Fund in the amount of $275,000 per year
3. Augment the Future Water Treatment Plant Fund (Duff 11) In the amount of $250,000 per year
4. Financial need of maintaining ending fund balance carry-over in the Water Fund of $2 Million
each year
NOTES
a. Future Main Replacement Fund "layaway account' is for emergency mainline facility
repair/replacements
L. Future Water Treatment Plant Fund "layaway account' and Future Water Right Development
Fund "layaway account' can be used, as noted in past budget adoption, for unexpected
secondary emergency purposes
COMMENTS
1. 1 am presenting three alternatives for addressing the 10 year projection cash flow issues. There
are undoubtedly variations within these alternatives and can be investigated as directed by the
Board. Alternative A deals with "Changing the Rules", alternative 33 deals with "Suspending the
Rules", and alternative C deals with "Maintaining the Rules'.
SEE ATTACHED SPREADSHEETS
2. 1 recommend alternative 83. "SusirendinR the Rules". This alternative allows the Commission to
weather the cash flow dip in the Water Construction Fund "savings account' around fiscal year
18-19, maintain an adequate carry-over end of year balance in the Water Fund "checking
account', and get back on track with current rules again being implemented by the end of the
10 year window. If an emergency presents itself, the FMR, FWRD, & FWTP Funds collectively
have $9 Million to temporarily/appropriately draw on (emergency bonding or short term loans
are also possible options). The needed overall rate increase equates/averages out to 55%
(approx. 3 cents per thousand) each year for the next 11 years although actual overall rate
increases would be closer to 11.9% (approx. 7 cents per thousand) in the beginning three
years.
CAP062515 Page 26
The 10 year projections are based on current financial variables that do indeed vary overtime.
It is important to keep in mind that the projections for the current fiscal year are the closest to
being dependable and are the only ones that should be counted on in the short term. This
future look and projections information began as "Table II" in 1980 with then current Manager,
Bob Lee. Its title changed and format morphed over time becoming known as "Appendix B".
With the new financial and billing software, detailed ties and financial information can now be
used to more precisely project outcomes of overall rate increases with needed future
capital/expense project funding, It will now be (mown as "10 Year Cash Flow and Fund Balance
Projections'.
4. Different customer group rate increases will always be reviewed, predicated, and approved on
an annual cost of service study done using the 2015 methodology and format that will be
presented for MWC Board approval by HDR Consultants in the near future.
5. The summertime high demand period (May thru September) still carries a surcharge often cents
per thousand gallons paid by ALL customers that goes into the Future Water Treatment Plant
Fund (Duff 11). This surcharge is independent of the noted required overall rate increases and
could be eliminated, increased, decreased, or maintained overtime. Its function is to collect
money over time towards the future extremely high Duff II treatment plant costs. It is
anticipated that the Duff II treatment plant will eventually be paid for by this fund in
combination with time implemented bonding and a new round of SDCs specifically for Duff II.
The earliest anticipation of need for Phase I of Duff II is around 2030 but could be as far off as
2040. The 2008 projected cost for Phase I of Duff 11 was $70 million with Phase 11 and III coming
in later future years at $28 and $30 million respectively. Preliminary securing of site permitting
conditions is currently underway and initial intake expansion work will need to begin at the end
of the current 20 year capital work timespan.
6. The HIS currently supplies 26.4 MGD. The Duff l treatment plant supplies 45 MGD today and
will be able to provide a total of 65 MGD when the planned future Floc -Sed and Filter
Expansions are done within the next 10 years. The future Duff II with all 3 phases will be able to
produce 60 MGD. All said and done a total of 151.4 MGD. The high summer demand rate has
reached 61.8 MGD in 2010.
7. Staff will prepare the final budget for approval with alternative B in mind unless directed
otherwise by June 17"', the public hearing date for reviewing and approving the 2015-16 Fiscal
Year Budget.

MEDFORD WATER COMMISSION Cxavrl pl >✓
FUTURE WATER TREATMENT PLANT FUND
Fiscal Year 2014-15
This page shows the budget for the "Future Water Treatment Plant Fund' forthe Fiscal Year (FY),
The Fund was established in FY2010-11 and acts as a savings account or sinking fund to accumulate
funds for major expenditure items related to the future construction of the Duff #2 Water Treatment Plant
that cannot be funded from operating revenue.
Each year a certain amount of revenue is transferred to the Future Water Treatment Plant Fund as
determined by Board action through the budget process. The moneys in the Future Water Treatment
Plant Fund are invested and the interest on the investments is retained in the fund. The funds in the
Future Water Treatment Plant Fund are earmarked for future use as major construction of Water treatment
facilities needed to meet future system demands OR EMERGENCY WATER SYSTEM NEEDS THAT
MAY OCCUR. This results in a "pay-as-you-go' method of financing system expansion as apposed to
borrowing funds to construct the facilities OR MEET EMERGENCY NEEDS.
