BUDGET CATEGORY: Wastewater Operating Fund
LEGAL REVIEW:
DESCRIPTION:
Resolution for the sole source procurement of UV Bulbs for the Wastewater Treatment Plant from
Berson Ultraviolet Systems.
HISTORY:
The City’s Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) was upgraded in 2011 and began using an Aquionics
Ultraviolet (UV) disinfection system to treat effluent prior to discharge in the Stillaguamish river.
The Aquionics UV disinfection systems use powerful lamps to produce concentrated ultraviolet
radiation which destroys micro‐organisms.
A sister company to Aquionics, Berson Ultraviolet Systems, produces the ultraviolet bulbs specified
and warrantied by Aquionics. Achieving the NPDES permit required level of disinfection is
warrantied only with the use of Berson UV bulbs. In addition, Washington state inspected, tested
and permitted the WRF’s disinfection system with it operating under manufacturer’s
recommendations. To be fully compliant with the WRF’s NPDES permit, the only bulbs the City can
procure for the UV system are Berson UV bulbs.
ALTERNATIVES
- Do not authorize sole source procurement of UV bulbs from Berson Ultraviolet Systems
- Remand to staff for further consideration
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Workshop; discussion only. At the March 6 Council meeting the motion will be “I move to approve
the Resolution authorizing the sole source procurement of UV Bulbs from Berson Ultraviolet
Systems, pending final review by the City Attorney”.

RESOLUTION NO. 2017-XXX
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF ARLINGTON TO WAIVE BIDDING REQUIREMENTS
FOR THE PURCHASE OF NEW ULTRAVIOLET BULBS FOR USE BY THE CITY OF
ARLINGTON WASTEWATER DEPARTMENT
WHEREAS, the City of Arlington Wastewater Department treats wastewater for all of its
customers; and
WHEREAS, to maintain the consistency of parts, ensure the warranty of the UV System
at the Wastewater Treatment plant, and avoid the cost associated with repairs to the system that
may occur using non genuine original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement parts, a
supplier of OEM ultraviolet bulbs is required; and
WHEREAS, Aquionics (a sister company to Berson, the original manufacturer) has
provided the City of Arlington with its existing UV bulbs, and Aquionics is the sole source
representative authorized to sell UV Bulbs; and
WHEREAS, RCW 35.23.352(9) permits the waiving of bidding requirements for the
purchase of materials which are clearly and legitimately limited to a single source of supply or
services which are subject to special market conditions;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Arlington,
as follows:
Section 1: The City Council of the City of Arlington finds that replacing
ultraviolet bulbs with OEM bulbs clearly limits the City of Arlington to a single
source of supply, justifying the waiver of competitive bidding requirements.
Section 2: The City Council of the City of Arlington hereby waives the bidding
requirements for the purchase of Ultraviolet Bulbs for use by the City of
Arlington Wastewater Department and authorizes sole source purchasing from
Aquionics.
Section 3: This resolution will be effective for three (3) years from the date of
adoption.

LEGAL REVIEW:
DESCRIPTION:
The Citizens Salary Review Commission meets every odd numbered year to make
decisions regarding compensation for Arlington’s elected officials. The City contacted each
member of the 2015 Citizen Salary Review Commission to determine their interest in
continuing to serve on the Commission. Of the five members, Chad Clay and Sherri
McCarthy indicated their desire to continue serving on the Commission. Mr. Clay’s term
does not expire until 12/31/2017. Ms. McCarthy’s term expired on 12/31/2016 and she
would like to be renewed for an additional term.
The City advertised for members of the community to volunteer for the three remaining
positions on the Citizen Salary Review Commission and received five applications.
Three members of the City Council interviewed the five candidates on Friday, February 10,
2017 using a standardized list of questions. After contemplating the answers from the
interviews, the Council committee is recommending the following three individuals to fill
the remaining three spots on the Citizens Salary Review Commission:
‐ Steve Maisch
‐ Christopher St. John
‐ Austin DeFreece
HISTORY:
A new chapter 2.89 was added to the Arlington Municipal Code on January 20, 2015 that
created a Citizen Salary Review Commission for the salaries of elected officials. It is the
policy of the city of Arlington to base salaries and per diem reimbursement of elected
officials on realistic standards so that elected officials of the city may be paid according to
the duties of their offices, and so that citizens of the highest quality may be attracted to
public service.
ALTERNATIVES
Reject Council selection committee’s recommendations.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Workshop; discussion only. At the March 6, 2017 Council meeting, the proposed motion
will be “I move to consent to the reappointment of Sherri McCarthy and the appointment
of Steve Maisch, Christopher St. John, and Austin DeFreece to the Citizens Salary Review
Commission.”

Inter‐fund Loan from Growth Fund to EMS Fund

Loan Worksheet – Exhibit 1
DEPARTMENT OF ORIGIN
Finance: Kristin Garcia, Finance Director 360‐403‐3431
EXPENDITURES REQUESTED: Up to $185,975
BUDGET CATEGORY: Growth Fund
LEGAL REVIEW:
DESCRIPTION:
As of January 31, 2017, the EMS Fund required an inter‐fund loan of $72,891. The EMS Fund
budgeted a total loan amount of $185,975. Based on cash flow projections, it is likely
additional loans may be necessary until tax payments are received in May. For efficiency
purposes, staff is asking the council for authorization to issue an inter‐fund loan, only as
necessary, up to the amount approved in the budget, in lieu of bringing this item to council
every month a loan is needed. If at any point a loan amount is expected to exceed the
amount budgeted, the item will be brought to council for approval.
HISTORY:
The EMS Fund does not currently have any previous loans outstanding. Previous
outstanding loans from 2015 and 2016 were paid in full by December 31, 2016.
ALTERNATIVES
Do not approve the inter‐fund loan and allow the fund to be negative. This could violate
RCW 43.09.210 which states that no fund should unfairly benefit from another.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Workshop; discussion only. At the March 6, 2017 meeting, the motion will read; “I move to
authorize the finance director to take an inter‐fund loan from the Growth Fund to the EMS
Fund up to $185,975”.
