City Council Meeting 08/25/2020 06:30 PM 149 Hodgden Street S, Tenino, WA 98589

WORK SESSION

• 1.The Tenino Community Service Center (TCSC) is working with the US Department of Housing and Urban Development to obtain a new, refrigerated, delivery truck.  One of the requirements is that they must be able to show a secure storage location when the truck is not being used.  TCSC has identified an area within their "footprint" that can be fenced off to meet that requirement.   They have selected a contractor to install the fence and have asked the City for financial assistance.

  Because TCSC provides much-needed assistance to Tenino residents, in some cases, the only assistance available within the City,  and because the COVID-19 pandemic has increased both the volume and quantity of food required to be distributed, it is in the best interests of the City to support TCSC in their effort to secure the truck.

  Because it is sometimes necessary to load the truck and park it overnight, there is also a requirement to provide "shore power" to the truck to run the refrigeration units.  There is no "shore power" outlet currently available, and it is estimated to cost approximately $1500, it is also in the City's best interest to assist TCSC in establishing "shore power" capability.

  Because this issue is a direct result of the government response to the COVID-19 pandemic, this grant will be eligible for reimbursement through CARES Act funding.

• 2.Thurston County proposes to replace the Health and Human Services Council (HHSC) with a Regional Housing Council (RHC).

  The proposed Interlocal Agreement (ILA) for the RHC uses the same methodolgy for representation as does the TCOMM/911 ILA in that Tenino would not have a voting seat on the Council, unless Tenino were elected by all those entities who represent less than 5% of the County's inhabitants.

  Even so, the City would be required to provide a "decision-maker" to each Council Meeting and may be required to provide both in-kind contributions, as well as funds (under certain conditions).
