Nathan (staff) told the council the work plan links individual work items to strategic focus areas, goals and measures and provides milestones and estimated timing for committee and council consideration.

Nathan said the work plan is meant to improve communications among staff, council and the public and to serve as an implementation checklist for council direction. He gave a navigational example: a \"national night out\" entry appearing on page 18 that is coded to strategic focus area 1, goal A and measure 4. Nathan said requests to add or remove items should be made by motion to ensure the work plan remains usable and predictable.

Council members asked about access to a digital, linked version of the plan and whether the work plan requires council adoption. Nathan and staff said the plan is a staff document intended to implement the council-adopted strategic plan; formal adoption is not required for the staff work plan itself, though some items identified for permanent committees will need council approval in later steps. One council member said she had not had time to fully read the work plan and asked for more time; staff said there will be additional touch points before any committee-level approvals.

At the start of the meeting staff also announced two late agenda changes: the city is pulling item I1 (an Open Public Meetings Act and public records presentation) and item J2 (LWOT intake) to allow staff further time to discuss those items before bringing them back to a future meeting.

No formal council vote was taken to adopt the work plan; staff requested council feedback and signaled the plan will remain a working document with future additions as emergent issues arise.","City staff presented a consolidated 2025 staff work plan that maps actions to the council-adopted 2025–26 strategic plan; staff asked council to identify additions or deletions before the plan is finalized and noted the plan is intended as a living, implementation-focused document.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_47":92,"_49":93,"_51":94,"_53":95,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":96,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":97,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6299201,"Port Angeles council approves consolidated 2025 software and maintenance renewals, limits Adobe Premiere licenses pending review",1630,1210420,2840680,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2498318-d0b039ae58210b50eccd2ad3a61eefdb&start=1210&end=2840","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2498318-d0b039ae58210b50eccd2ad3a61eefdb/thumbnail_1210420.jpg","/articles/6299201/Port-Angeles/Clallam-County/Washington/Port-Angeles-council-approves-consolidated-2025-software-and-maintenance-renewals-limits-Adobe-Premiere-licenses-pending-review","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6299201-786475428966373d8ed636a8e1a17214/orig.mp4?Expires=1771143448&Signature=jLGcHdptnBkTKqh0VlaDnb8uaC6I4wpS9d7-KZQf2f-xNw-B-Z43wikagD4UDExeNoMJoc5wpsuyMcv-0cHROApbGzzsNBGUKSXv1vUmiQWnHZ9Gqw4xnE02TxPiT1P2zP5xmN2tTMvYh4u4pLlDGxm0A-aKHHfnfxg34RAJedm4MaLqnA-IKjxyRueLuHDbo-Nw1xY8qB2DOe2XcVHOEBQp1cO8pWzbNxDQa0JV8XeJ8VhJVoPxgtPYRiEujq9IW9i3zFxgLIq7yIw2dCh8OZkBIqlqkcneF1IZBNZHq03PnO8vW3R3TSYmqECHnwSCbFPvN3wYDymI~xpwdIG6YA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Port Angeles City Council on March 4 approved a consolidated purchase of 2025 software and hardware maintenance renewals from authorized resellers under Washington State Department of Enterprise Services NASPO contracts. City staff presented the package as a consolidation of previously separate renewals; the packet lists the total cost as $636,166 including taxes.

During discussion council members questioned several line items, particularly the number of Adobe product licenses. The IT presentation noted 80 Adobe Acrobat Pro licenses and 13 Creative Cloud licenses across the organization. Council member Brandon and others questioned 38 Adobe Premiere licenses that staff said had been procured to support police body-worn camera workflows and records processing. The police and IT staff said the initial recommendation for Adobe Premiere was based on agency best-practice recommendations and that some licenses were obtained under grant funding during the pilot phase.

Eric (IT staff) clarified the product breakdown to council: \"Adobe Acrobat Pro is not used for image editing. It's used for PDF signature markup of documents, PDFs.\" City staff also said Axon's evidence.com platform, which the police department is implementing for camera evidence management, may provide the necessary processing and redaction tools in the future. IT/police staff told council that evidence.com \"will actually do everything that we need,\" but that staff are still testing that capability and could return with a final recommendation.

Council member Lindsey moved to approve the consolidated renewals and to amend the proposed licenses so that Adobe Premiere would be authorized for 4 licenses (to cover records staff) rather than the 38 listed in the packet. The motion also authorized the city manager to execute purchase documents and directed staff to return with updated information about video processing for police records. The motion passed unanimously.

The council noted the funding for the renewals was included in the council-approved 2025 IT department budget. Staff said this year's presentation consolidated multiple contracts into a single package to improve transparency. The council asked for a future status report specifying the final number of required licenses if evidence.com provides the needed functionality.

The motion passed unanimously.

Council members said the letter aims to highlight local consequences if state cuts move forward. Mayor Dexter said the city faces a difficult year if proposals under consideration at the state level take effect and framed the letter as a chance to press the case for Port Angeles' priorities. “I think I appreciate the the mechanism that we have used, which is, certainly, I think, more powerful too if I'm signing a letter on behalf, I hope, of a unanimous counsel,” Mayor Dexter said during council discussion.

Council member Lindsey moved to authorize the mayor to send the letter; the motion was seconded and then approved without recorded opposition. Lindsey warned of specific program cuts discussed at the state level, saying, “it's pretty bad when the governor's proposing things like cutting dental rates for children.” Council member Deborah added that the council should “stand up for the health, safety and welfare of all of the people who live in our community.”

Council members said they are particularly concerned about potential cuts to early childhood programs, social services and public-health funding and the downstream impacts on operations such as local food assistance. The mayor and other members noted that many residents in the community rely on state-funded services and that some local households include state employees who could face furloughs.

The motion directed the mayor to transmit a letter reflecting those concerns; council did not adopt language on the floor beyond authorizing the mayor to send the document. Mayor Dexter said he would circulate the final letter and try to send it quickly because the legislative session is ongoing.

Votes at a glance: the motion to authorize the mayor to send the letter passed unanimously (yes:7, no:0, abstain:0, absent:0).","On March 4 the Port Angeles City Council voted unanimously to authorize Mayor Dexter to send a letter to Washington's governor expressing concern about proposed state budget cuts to early childhood services, social services and other programs that council members said would affect local households and workers.","actionData","errors"]
