Re: 2006 Sewer Paveback Program
Spokane County's 2006 Septic 'I'ank Flimuiation Progratn includes three projects within thc Ciey
of Spol:.ane Valley:
Veradalc Heights: This includes the area north of Sprague Avenue bet"veen Everg-reen :E2oact
and Adams Rnad, from Nixon Aveuuc to Vtissiou Avcnue. Thi.s is the largest of the three
sewer projeces this yeax. Vera Terrace: This project encompasses the area south of Sprague Avenue betlueen Lvergreen
Road and Burns ltoad, between 2`1 Avenue and 8'h Flvenue. Eteetrie RK: This projeet is an rhe west sicle of'the Town of Nlillwood behwe.en Yark Roaci and
Vista Road and bcriveen Trent Ekvenue and Utah Road, which is immediately south of the
Union Pacific 1Zailroad.
The design of the Vcradale i-Iei;hts project is 98"/o complete. The Llectric ktR project is 80%
coinplete and the design of the Vcra Terrace project is just getting star.ted. Yreliminary estimates
havu bcen preparcd to determine the city's cost to providc fiill-widtli paving far each of these
tluee projects. Preliminary escimates for the cost of drainage improvements have also becn
prepared tor each project. A simunary of these costs are tabulated below:

2006 Scwer Paveback. Program Page 2
The $140,000 drainagc improvement costs arc tivithui the buclgcted allotment of the Stornzwater
Fund. 11ie city's 2006 budget inchides $540,000 in the Streel Capital Projects Nund for full-widtti pZVing associated with the 2006 scwer projects. The City also appliEd for C]aBG Fundsin the amount o£ $207,815 to assist with fuJl-width paving costs associateci ~&rith the Vera Terrace sewEr
project. These CDBG ftinds have bcen preliminas-ily recomuiended for approval. Final aPproval
of the CDBG funds is not eYpected until the enci of vlarch or A.pril of this year. ,
A note about the CDBG fund amount: this ainount was estimated conservatively last fall prior to
Spokane County beguining the design for the Vera Terrace project. Therc urere inany unknoNvms
at that time relateti to the layout aud depth of the proposed sewer. The C17$G funds are only
available to a portion of the Vera Terrace pro.ject area, specificalJy 4`h Avcnue and dll streets
north ot'`4t' Avenue. Accprdulg to recent Preliminary sewer layouts and deptlis from Spokane
CoLuity, the estimated costs for full-widtli paving in the CllBG cligiblc area is $130,000.
A summary of the sewer paveback fuuding is as follotivs: .
Total Fstimated Pavcback Costs: $725,000
2006 Budgct Amount: $500;000
C:nBG Amount: $130.000
Sh4rtfall: . $ 95,000
The actua.l shortfall Nvill be based on the final bicis the County receives. it is recomtnended that -any shortfall in funds for this year's sewer paveback prograin come from the Street Capital
Projects Fiuid (303), Ottier Preservation 1'rojects linc item.
As was done last yEar, Spokane County will bid the Veradale Heights and Vera'1 errdce projects
xvith an a1tcnlate bici selsedule; one schcdtile witli trenching and asphalt patching, anothcr
schedule with full-width paving. The ciifferencc in bids benween these eNvo schedules reflecLs the
City's costs. This approach allows us to take advantage of credics ttiat Spokane County would
typically pay for on a trenchlpatch pr.qjcct. ThESe crcdits include pavement sawcuttiiig, erack
scaling, and pavement sLu-face sea.ling.
The Flectric RR praject will nUt have an alternate bid schedule because the cost to the City is
mostly related to the paving of "gaps". Since the roads in the Elcctl-ic RR projer.t area are
narrow and will be c;ompletcly removed for the installation or the se4ver, thcre is no
aecommodation t'or creciits as described above. In this case Spokane County pays the entire cost
for pavi.ng the roads back to their oi-iginal widths.
rlttachcd is a draft Mernorandiun of lJnderstaticling (NIOL) regarding the City of Spokane
Vallcy's rcimbiirsemcnt to the county for our share of the paving ana drainage costs. Wc will bE
bringing a final IvIOU ta Council for appr.oval 'vi the near futurc.
Please let us know if you have any quesYions or comments.
, Memorandum of Understanding
Between the City of Spokane Valley and Spokane County
Pavement Replacement Cost Sharing and Drainage Improvement Costs
for the 2006 Sewer Construction Program
WHEREAS the City of Spokane Valley (the CITY) and Spokane County (the COUNTY)
desire to work collaboratively to construct portions of the COUNTY's 2006 Sewer
Construction Program together with CITY paving and drainage improvement projects;
and
WHEREAS the CITY desires that the roads impacted by the construction of sewers in
the 2006 Sewer Construction Program be reconstructed to the full preconstruction width
for an improved roadway surface; and
WHEREAS the CITY also desires that pavement replacement work be extended in
some areas beyond the limits of sewer construction; and
WHEREAS the CITY also desires that certain drainage improvements be constructed in
areas that will be impacted by the COUNTY's 2006 Sewer Construction Program; and
~WHEREAS the costs of such full width repaving, additional length of road
reconstruction, and miscellaneous drainage improvements are not funded by the
COUNTY's Sewer Construction Program, and said costs will need to be paid by the
CITY; and
WHEREAS the 2006 Sewer Construction Program includes the Veradale Heights, Vera
Terrace, and Electric Railroad Sewer Projects within the limits of the CITY, as identified
in the COUNTY°s adopted Six-Year Sewer Capital Improvement Program 2006-2011.
NOW THEREFORE, the CITY and the COUNTY do hereby agree as follows:
1. Prior to the bid of each project, the COUNTY shall provide the CITY with a set of
project plans, together with cost estimates indicating the extent of pavement removal
and replacement to be paid for by the COUNTY as a part of the sewer project. The
CITY shall review the plans and estimate, and shall advise the COUNTY regarding the
extent to which the CITY desires to add pavement removal and replacement, as well as
the specific drainage improvements that the CITY would like to make in conjunction with
the project.
2. The COUNTY shall prepare bid documents that include the additional work that is
requested by the CITY. The CITY may request that the COUNTY include a Base Bid
Schedule and an Alternate Bid Schedule in the bid documents to allow for a more
accurate determination of the true cost impact of the additional work requested by the
CITY.
3. After the bids for a project are opened, the COUNTY shall prepare the bid tabulation
and provide a copy to the CITY on the day of the bid, together with a calculation of the -
CITY's estimated share of the project cost based upon the unit prices submitted by the
low bidder. If the CITY then decides to proceed with the desired improvements, the
CITY shall provide a written notice to the COUNTY within three days of the receipt of
the bid tabulation.
4. The CITY's maximum cost for the three projects shall not exceed $725,000 for road
improvements and $140,000 for drainage improvements without written authorization by
the CITY. The COUNTY shall not proceed with any work that would increase the
CITY's cost to an amount greater than the total amount authorized. The estimated
CITY costs by project are presented in Table 1 below. The CITY and the COUNTY
recognize that this estimated total cost is for planning purposes, and that the actual
amount will be based upon final quantities and actual contract prices.
5. If the CITY subsequently elects to make additions to the scope of the project, the
CITY shall request such additional work in writing. A corresponding adjustment shall
then be made to the CITY's share of the cost based upon the resulting increase in pay
quantities and the associated contract bid prices. For work items requested by the
CITY that are not covered by the contract bid prices, the COUNTY shall prepare a
change order for the CITY's review and acceptancs prior to work items being .
constructed.
6. Upon substantial completion of each project, the COUNTY will send an initial invoice to the CITY for the CITY's portion of the cost of-roadway and drainage improvements.
Upon execution of the final pay estimate with the contractor, the COUNTY shall prepare
and send a final invoice for any additional amounts payable by the CITY.

Ke: Reviscd Lanci Capacity Analysis
As part of khe regional growtt1 managetnent. plan.ning requirements, prescribed by t.he Spokane Caunty
CTrUwth Ma,nagement Steering Committee, lhe City of Spokane Valley is required to estimatc its
future land capacily. The Plaivung Division has usea aparcel-based, Geogr'aphical Informaliun System (C1S) approach lo
generale estimated grovvth eapacity within our City lim.its, adjacetit lJrban Growtlt Areas (UGAS), and
IJrban R.eserve Areas. 1'his process included estimating the number of gross acres of vacant and
redevelopablc land in each lznd use classification, applying a series of percctitage ciiscounG% to arrive
al an estimale of net acres in each classification, and applying zoned riensitiez lor estimaling the
\ number of housing units.
!\ttached is a matrix identifying vacant and partially used land, net devclopable acres, polential new
dwelling units, and populaticm capacity. I'he urban reserve analysis docs nol exclude critical areas,
Platted pa,rcels, or parcels issued building permits due lo time restraints and the undcrstanding that the
data for these areas eesides with Spakane County. Urban reserve area c:alculations are providcd to
assist the Council in determining potential new UCAs to aeeommociate Spokanc Valley's estimatcd

16 I. SYNOPSIS
17 On April 25, 2005, Spokane County adopted Resolution No. 2005-0365, which
18 amended the Spokane County Comprehensive Plan for 2004. The Petitioners object ,
19 particularly to Amendment 04-CPA-01, which changed the designafiion of approximately 80
20 acres of land abutting the West Plains Urban Growth Area (UGA) From existing Rural
21 Traditional (RT) ko Low Den'sity Residential (LDR), and expandetl the Urban Growth
.
22 Boundary (UGA) speciFcally to encompass this parcel.
The Hearings Board found the County cleariy erroneous on three Issues:
23
First, enlargement of its UGA requires more than an attractive proposal from a
24 developer to add urban densities to a certain part of the County. The Growth Management
25 Act (GMA) requires the UGA to be sized sufFicient to permit the urban growth that is

1 projected to occur in the County for the succeeding twenty-year period. RCW36.70A.110(2).
2 GMA cases have found that such a requirement limits the size of the UGA and requires a
3 shoiving of work demonstrating how they arrived at sucfi the size of the UGA or its
4 expansion. The County has only the proponent's arguments that an expansion in this area is
' 5needed. This is not enough.
6 Secand, tfie County failed to formally consult with airport owners and managers,
. private airport operators, general aviation pilots, ports, and the Aviation Division of the
7
Department of Transportation as is required by the GMA.
$ Finally, the County's Capital Facilities Plan (CFP) covers only 2000-2006 and does not
9 include the area which is the subject of this change. The Board finds the Petitioners have
10 carried their burden of proof in Legal Issues #1, #4, #5, #6, and #8, and have shown the
11 action taken by the County in adopting Resolution 2005-0365 is clearly erroneous. Spokane
12 County failed to adequately plan for capital facilities, utilities and transportation facilities for
13 the UGA expansion and, in addition, failed to follow the OFM population allocation . C14 guidelines when determining the fnal size of the UGA expansion. The County further failed
to show their work as to how they arrived at the need for enlarging the UGA to
15 •
accommodate the population given to them by the OFM estimates.

. 1 IV. ISSUES AND DISCUSSION
2 Issue No. 1: .
3 Has Spokane County violated the fundamental planning goals of RCW
36.70A.020(1)(2)(5)(.10) by approval of Comprehensive Plan amendment 04-CPA-1 to
4 converfi 80 acres of Rural Traditional farm land, one dwelling per 10 acres, into urban
5 residential development supporting a minimum of 320 single family residences, with a
maximum allowable density of 480 dwelling units, as listed on the application, and in
g placing this development site within the West Plains Urban Growth Area = Joint Planning
Area without adequate public facilities and services. Further, did Spokane County disregard
7 its Comprehensive Plan Goals and Policies to protect the rural character and lifestyles of its
8 rural Palisades residents by approving conversion of this site to urban and including it within
the West Plains Urban Growth Area - 7oint Planning Area (Goal RL.1 UL.18, Policies RL.1.1
g U L.181 - U L.18.4)?
10 The Parties' Position: 11 Petitioners:
12 The Petitioners state that on April 25, 2005, Spokane County adopted Resolution No.
13 2005-0365, which amended the Spokane County Comprehensive Plan for 2004. The
~ 14 Qetitioners object to a portion of that Resolution, Amendment 04-CPA-01, which changed
15 the designation of approximately 80 acres of land abutting the West Plains Urban Growth
'
Area (UGA), From existing Rural Traditional (RT) to Low Density Residential (LDR), and
16 expanded the Urban Growth Boundary (UGA) specifically to encompass this parcel.
17 The Petitioners contend that RCW 36.70A.110(1) prohibits urban growth outside
18 urban growth areas. They believe the County's actions make it possible to have urban
19 growth where no public facilities or services exist. It hastens the inappropriafie conversion of
20 undeveloped land into sprawling, low-density development.
21 Further, the Petitioners contend that GMA goals 2, 5, and 10 discourage sprawl
22 unequivocally. They contend the County Commissioners (BOCC) for Spokane ignored these
23 goals and achieve the absolute opposite. They contend that the introduction of 320 to 480
24 homes infio any rural neighborhood is devastation to all things "rural". These are contrary to
25 Spokane County's Goals RL.1 and UL.18 which require a distinct boundary betinreen urban

1 and rural land uses and provide adequate land to accommodate anticipated growth. The
2 County is claimed to have placed urban density development in the middle of rural land.
3 The reply brief of the Petitioners contends that the actions of the County have
4 allowed a sixty-fold increase in dwelling units on the property. They state that, if the UGA
5 had not been moved, the Rural Traditional zoning would still be intact, one dwelling unit per
6 10-acres. They further point oufi that all existing residences surrounding the property and
most of tfie Palisades IVeighborhood, are on individual wells and septic systems - no sewer
7 or water services for such development exist at the property.
8 The Petitioners contend that Spokane County has not updated its Capital Facilities
9 Plan since 2000; that the subject property is not wifihin the CFP area; and the County action
10 makes possible urban development where no public facilities or services exist. The
11 Petitioners state that the County's action places urban density development in fihe middle of
12 rural land; that this is spot zoning and an extension of the UGA specifically to accommodate
C 13 such. :
14 Respondent Spokane County:
15 The County believes the Petitioners arguments and analysis are-at best insufficient
for the Board to reverse the County's actions, and at worst, an attempt to shift the burden,
. 16
. of proof to the County by providing virtually no argument and only partial as well as
17 insufficient citation to the record. The County contends that the Petitioners provide no
18 analysis or citation to the record to support their conclusions. The County believes that fihe
19 petitioners rely on bald assertions. They say that the Petitioners do not show in the record
20 where no public facilities or services exist, much less identify which public facilities or •
21 services are laeking or how this amendment results in inappropriate conversion to sprawl.
22 The Counry contends that they do not permit urban growth outside the UGA but
23 changed the UGA boundary and thus is not in violation of that provision of the GMA.
24 Further, they claim the record shows that public services either are or will be available when
25 needed. The County's Plan and its amendment does not require concurrency until the time
of development. (SCC 13.650.104 and .112).

1 The County points out that the SEPA checklist from the applicant addresses ,
2 firansportation and public services issues. The City of Spokane has indicated that water and
3 sewer are available and that transportation impacts should be studied further as well as
4 coordinated with the DOT. The County admitted that additional traffic studies would be
5 required upon application for specific projects. Spokane County sewer and water
6 concu~ rrency requirements would be met at the time of development.
The County further contends that the Petitioners provided little analysis to support
7 .
their claims lfiat these changes encourage sprawl and discourage economic development
8 and environmental protection. This area is not now considered rural lands and so the
9 arguments claiming such densities would violate the nature of rural areas is baseless.
10 The County finally contends that the GMA does not prohibit the annual amendment 11 of the UGA boundary rather than limited to a five-year review. This amendment is claimed
12 to provide much needed land to accommodate growth in an area where adequate land for
13 housing is sorely lacking, especially in close proximity to jobs.
14 Board Analysis:
The GMA requires urban growth to be located within urban growth areas. Urban
15 -
. growth is permitted within the County's UGA. Under the GMA, if land is properiy included
16
. within a UGA, urban growth may be allowed upon such lands. Here, the Petitioners are
17 contending that the County is placing urban growth outside UGAs. This, of course, is not
18 the case. The County has included these lands within its UGA and, if such change were
19 compliant, any growth occurring thereon would be within such UGA. -
20 The Petitioners further contend that the County disregarded the Goals and Policies of
21 its Comprehensive Plan fio protect rural character and lifestyles of the rural Palisades
22 residents. Here again the Petitioners are arguing for the protection of Rural Character while
23 the land is zxpected to now be within the newly enlarged UGA. These arguments of the
24 Petitioners are objecting to the nature of the developmenfi when and if it is builfi upon the land within the UGA. - 25

1 In their other arguments on fihis issue, the Petitioners object to the enlargement of
2 the UGA to include the subjecfi land. A key argument here contends that there was no
3 Capital Facilities Plan update prior to the enlargement of the UGA. As this Board has held
. 4 before, (Rotrerts & Taylor v. Benton County EWGMH6, 05-1-0003, FDO 10/19/05) the
. 5 amendment of the Comprehensive Plan to expand the UGA requires a new review of the
6 Capital Facilities Plan (CFP) so the County would see that services are available for the area
added to the UGA and how they would be paid for. This was not done here. The Record
7
shows that Spokane County prepared a 6 year CFP approximately 6 years ago and it does
$ not cover the area that is the subject of this enlargement of the UGA. One of the primary
9 tenants in the GMA is RCW36.70A.020-Planning Goals. Under that statufie, subsection (12)
10 Public facilities and services, it provides:
11 "Ensure that those public facilities and services necessary to support
development shall be adequafie to serve the development at tfie time the
~ 2 development is available for occupancy and use without decreasing current .13 service levels below locally established minimum standards."
C.
14 A county-cannot fulfill the requirements of Planning Goal #12 without a futuristic
15 look at its community using a detailed capital facilities 'plan element, among the other
16 elements of its comprehensive plan. A county must have a forecast of future capital facilities
17 needs. A new CFP needs to make the corresponding population revisions, if they exist, to .
18 the CFP whose present analytical foundations are derived from the old population
19 allocations. Then there must be an analysis of the adequacy of capital facilities in the area.
20 The GMA, under RCW 36.70A.070(3), requires a capital facilifiies plan element in the
21 City or County's Comprehensive Plan. The Legislature recognized that planning is foryvard
22 looking, so mandated at a minimum a six-year Capital Facilities Element (CFE), to ensure
financing of projected capital facilities and sources of public money were clearly identified.
23 They also required a forecast of future needs for such capital facilities. The County has a
24 six-year CFP, for the period of 2000-2006. '

• 1 The reference in the record, that the City of Spokane will be able to provide services'

3 how much the infrasfiructure is going to cost and afinancial mechanism to fund it. For fihe

6 expansion of the UGA. .
In Bremerton, et al., v. Kitsap County, CPSGMHB 95-3-0039c (FDO,, Oct. 6, 1995),
7 the Central Board determined that,
8 "[Although] the GMA does not designate a specific six-year period for Capital
g Facilities Element planning, it is illogical, and contrary to one of the bedrock
. purposes of the GMA - planning to manage future growth - to suggest that
10 the Capital Facilities Element's six-year financing plan can be, in whole or in
11 part, an historical report of capital facility financing for prior years."
12 The minimum six-year CFP is a living document. It is supposed to help cities and
13
~ counties understand their current and future financial capabilities as they grow, how to pay
14 for that growth and, in some respects, how to_grow. They may find it is more cost-effective .
. 15 to increase density within their present UGA to absorb their populafiion allocation, rather
16 than run expensive urilities into expanding territory. An up-to-date CFE is a tool that can do
17 this.
18 Spokane County has not updated its plans in anticipation of adopting Resolution:
2005-0365. ThE County believes that the services will be provided at the time a specific
19
development is proposed. That is certainly when they can be provided, but planning for .
20 those services has to take place much earlier. RCW 36.70A.070(3)(b). 21 "The purpose of the capital facilities element of a comprehensive plan is to see
22 what is available, determine what is going to be needed, figure out what that
will cost, and determine how the expense will be paid." Achen v. Clark County

where locational and financing information can be found that supports the
3 UGA designations and GMA duty to ensure that adequate public facilit:ies will

4 5 The County did not update its CFE (RCVI/ 36.70A.070(3), its utilities element (RCW
g 36.70A.070(4), or its transportation element (36.70A.070(6) prior to adopting Resolution
. 7 2005-0365. Considering the impacts this amendment will have to the citizens of Spokane
8 County, an update of these comprehensive plan elements was essential to good planning
9 required by the GMA.
Conclusions:
10
The Board finds the Petitioners have carried their burden of proof and thafi the
11 County's actions are clearly erroneous. The County failed to adequately plan for capital
12 facilities, utilities and transportation within the land adopted by Resolufiion 05-057 and thus
' 13 did not comply with RCW 36.70A.070(3), (4) &(6).

14 The County contends that Policy Topic 2, which states that UGA proposals outside a
city must be based on the jurisdiction's ability to provide urban governmental services at a
15
minimum level of services, is addressed in its response to Issue 1. Services are available or
16
will be available for any development, which will, occur in the added area.
17 Public Topic 8 is further addressed in issue 1. However, the Countywide Planning
18 Polices requirement for outreach to the Spokane County Steering Committee of Elected
19 Officials (Steering committee) needs to be addressed. The County claims the Petitioners'
20. argument is misplaced.
21 Policy 2 was amended affier the subject application was received and does not apply.
22 Policies 5 and 6, now numbered 4 and 5, were amended after the application and require

$ Board AnalMsis:
9 The Petitioners have not carried their burden of proof on this issue. If the County
10 amendment were found in compliance, this land would be within the UGA and would be
11 allowed to have urban growth.
12 While it is unclear, the Board need not find the County out of compliance on this _
/ 13 issue for the County's failure to provide an opportunity for the Spokane County Steering _.l.
14 Committee of Elected Officials to -consider changing the UGA boundary by this amendment..
15 The CPP requiremenfi for submittal for review to the Steering Committee came into effect
af.ter the application was filed. The fact that when the application was received, the
16
Countywide, Planning Policy requiring submittal to the Steering Committee was not in affect, .
17 does not necessarily mean that tiie old policy prevails throughout the consideration. This is
18 a GMA amendment to the UGA. Whether policies existing at the fiime an application were
19 made for a Plan change remain in effect throughout the consideration of such an
20 amendment is not clear and we need not decide this issue at this time. It is hoped that
21 upon remand, the County will do as the GMA requires in RCW 36.70A.100 and 210 and

International Airport, Fairchild Air Force Base, or other urban service providers in this area,
8 as evidenced by agency letters and a SEPA appeal by the City of Spokane, contained within ,
9 the staff report, discouraging approval of this amendment?
.
10 The Parties' Position:
11 Petitioners: •
The Petitioners contend there is no record of County outreach or coordination with
~ 12 .
13 any other jurisdiction with which the Counry has "common boarders or related regional
~ issues" regarding 04-CPA-1. The SEPA appeal by the City of Spokane was rejected by the
14 County's Hearing Examiner. Further the Petitioners contend that-the County failed to
15 consider the objections of the representatives of the Fairchild Air Force Base, a Federal
16 facility.

21 agencies provided comments to the County. Ample notice was given to surrounding

1 property owners and interested public. The Petitioners have not carried their burden of
2 showing that the County has, in fact, failed to comply with RCW36.70A.100. Mere
3 statements of their failure to coordinate with other jurisdictions are not enough.
4 The County did not comply with RCW 36.70A.530, which requires the County to
5 protect the land surrounding our military installations from incompatible development. This
statute also requires the County to notify the commander of the military installation of the
6 County's intent to amend its Comprehensive Plan or development regulations to address
7 lands adjacent to military installations to ensure those lands are protected from
8 incompatible development. While the statute provides that amendments adopted under that
9 section shall be adopted concurrent with the scheduled updates provided in RCW
10 36.70A.130, the statute could be infierpreted still as requiring counties to recognize the
11 State of Washington's priority to protect the land surrounding our military installations from
12 incompatible development. The language specifies that amendments to a plan or .
~ 13 regulations should not allow development in the vicinity of a military installation which are
14 incompatible with the installation's ability to carry out its mission requirements. The
15 representative of the military base objected to the location of the new urban development,
. .
but this did not change the County's action.
16
While we are surprised the County Commissioners ignored the legislative intenfi and
17
the priority of the State, this Board need not determine if the legislation could be
1$ interpreted as a current requirement of the GMA. This is true because we have otherwise
19 found the actions of the. County out of compliance. However, we would recommend that the
20 County honor tfie priority voiced by the Legislature and consider the objections of the
21 representatives of Fairchild Air Force Base. 22 Conclusion:
23 The Board does not find that the Counry is out of compliance in its failure to consult .
24 with local governments and its failure to consult with military base representatives and limit .
25 development incompatible with the installations'.ability to carry out its mission
requirements. The Board does not need to determine whether certain provisions of RCW

Spokane County is required to plan under RCW 36.70.040. As such, RCW 36.70A.110

7 36.70A.110(2), tfie County must "include areas and densities sufficient to permit fihe urban
8 growth that is projected to occur in the county or city for the succeeding twenty-year

17 An urban growth area may include territory that is located outside of a city
only if such territory already is characterized by urban growth whetlier or not

23 tventy-year period, except for those urban growth areas contained tofially
within a national historical reserve. Each urban growth area shall permit urban

14 An expansion of a*UGA is essentially a redesignation. Such expansion must be
consistent with the requirements of RCW 36.70A.110. Changes in the size of UGAs must be

supported by land use capacity analysis and the County must "show its work:" "If UGAs are

5 The land capacity analysis required in RCW 36.70A.110(1) and (2) is a vital
6 component of the work that must be shown. Director of the State Department of

7 .
Case No. 03-3-0017, Final Decision and Order, (Mar. 8, 2004), at 20-22.
8 ' The record before the Hearings Board clearly shows that the County did not perform
9 any land quantity analysis. Resolution No. 2005-0365 makes no mention of an analysis or
10 review of land quantity in its findings or decision. The County also conceded in the Hearing
11 on the Merits that the County did no land quantity review. The deyelopers/Intervenors
' 12 supplied the only analysis alleging a need for additaonal land within the UGA for Spokane.
( 13 This report was included in the Record without any verification of the claims contained
`
14 therein. This is not enough. ,
The County did nothing to verify whether or not the present UGA is sufficient for the
15 existing or fufiure population growth since it designated its original UGAs. The records
16
reflect only the unverified contentions of the developer that additional lands are needed.
17 The County did. not show their work and in fact does not claim to have done anything itself
18 to ascertain the need to expand the County's UGA.
19 Conclusion:
20 The Petitioners have carried their burden of proof and have shown that the acfions
21 of the County are clearly erroneous in its failure to perform a population and land quantity
22 analysis showing that an expansion of the UGA is needed. The record clearly reflects that
23 the County did not show its work, if any was performed.

7 The Parties' Position:
' g Petitioners:
g The Petitioners contend that the subject land is assigned a"High Suscepribility"
10 rating as part of the Wesfi Plains Critical Aquifer Recharge Area. They point out that the
11 County Storm Water Management Plan indicated "high groundwater levels, shallow depth to
12 bedrock and low permeability soils... not conductive to on-site infltration of storm water
and can cause flooding and failed drainage facilities." The Petitioners contend that the .
13
C Comprehensive Plan policy RL1.13A provides that sensitive environmental features should
14 not'be included in Urban Reserve Areas outside Urban growth Areas.
15 The Petitioners contend that 280 to 480 homes and septic systems will endanger all
16 WeIIs down gradient to the site by septic seepage and cumulative storm wafier runoff, which
17 is contrary to RCW 36J0A.172. The vast majority of the homes in this area draw their
18 drinking water from the Grand Rounde-Wanapum Aquifers.
19 The County has not updated its County Capital Facilities Plan since fihe 2000 draft
' 20 and there was nothing on file as to the provision of services and financing of said services
21 for the development, including storm and sanitary sewer systems, domestic water systems,
roadway upgrade and maintenance services, fire and police protection, etc.
22
In fiheir reply brief, the Petitioners reemphasize their contention that the source of 23
drinking water in the area is vital and the property is in the "High" Susceptibility area and
24 there were no geotechnical reports or indication oF sewer and storm water-runoff disposal

3 related to the High Susceptibility rating and fail to meet the burden of proof.
4 Further, the properly is not in an Urban Reserve Area and the Petitioners are wrong
5 to assume that the project will use septic systems. The property is to be connected to
6 public sewer when developed. Therefore the claimed damage is unsupported.
The Intervenors further contend that there is no development proposal before the
7
Hearings Board and the Board has no jurisdiction or authority to reyiew a specific
8 development proposal. The Intervenors contend that public services either are or will be
9 available when needed. They contend that the GMA does not require public facilities and

1 The Parties' Position: .
2 Petitioners: ,
3 The Petitioners contend that the County failed to protect fihe rural character of the
4 area surrounding the subject parcel of land. They contend it serves to spread growth in an
5 area without the requisite urban services and does so in a manner that will engender
additional low-density sprawl as the development strives to recoup investment through
6 addibonal housing units.
7 '
. The Petitioners contend further that the County's action is negligent in protecting this
8 highly susceptible critical ground 4vater recharge area designated by the County. They
9 contend that once designated they must protect these areas.
10 In their reply brief, the Petitioners cite But/er v. Lewis County, WWGMHB 97-2-0027c ~

12 quantity issues will be resolved in the permit process."

14 The Intervenors contend that the Petitioners' statements are conclusory and only
15 their opinion. The Pefiitioners claim the County failed to protect groundwater. Yet, the
Intervenors claim, no evidence is cited by Petitioners to support their conclusions.
16
Residential development is not even a regulated activity in a High Susceptibility rated area.
17 Petitioners are claimed to fail to offer any argument or evidence related to the High

22 Board Analysis:
23 The County will be required to complete a current CFP for fihis area. Within that Plan

Did the Board of County Commissioners, as representatives of Spokane County,

Resolution 1998-0144) for public by neglecting to notify affected jurisdictions and agencies
9 of its hearing on 04-CPA-1 on April 25, 2005. Further, after rejecting the unanimous
10 decision of denial of 04-CPA-1 by the Spokane County Planning Commission, did the County
Commissioners Spokane County fail to provide notification of its public hearing, make it
11 known to the public on its website; in press releases or public service announcements, as
hard copies available for public review in County Libraries, as a display advertisement in the
12 local newspaper of circulation, or hold a public meeting at a facility within close proximity of 13 the area affected by 04-CPA-1 to inform or involve Palisades citizens in the decision making process as stated in its Public Participation Program? Did Spokane County further fail the
14 Palisades Neighborhood and other concerned citizens by atypically holding the hearing in
the middle of a workday?
15 • 16 The Parties' Position:
17 Petitioners:
18 The Petitioners contend the County has not complied with the Public Participation
Program of the County and the requirements of the GMA. The Petitioners point out that the
19
County published one legal notice in the Spokesman Review. There was nothing on the
20 County's website, libraries or other places indicating notification of this action.
21 The Spokane County Planning Commission unanimously rejecfied the application and .
22 the County failed to provide notification to the public or have a public meeting to inform or
23 involve Palisades citizens in the decision making process as required by its own Public
24 Participation Program. The Petitioners again cite Butler v. Lewis CountyLsupra, as stating

2 Petitioners contend that there was no notice of the Planning Commission hearing on fihe

4 planning Commission decision and approved the amendment. They contend that there is no
5 record of public notification. None were claimed to be held in the Palisades neighborhood.
.
6 Intervenor: Greg and Kim ]effreys, G.7.L.L.C and G.J. General Contractors
The Intervenors contend that the Petitioners failed to carry their burden of proof.
' 7 There was basically no briefing of the GMA, Counfiy regulations or case law. It is merely an
$ expression of their opinion and dissatisfaction that the County declined to accept the
9 recommendation of the Planning Commission. This is not required by the GMA.
10 The Intervenors poinfi out that the Planning Commission was not unanimous, it was a
11 recommendation formed by only 3 members of a 7-member board. .
12 The Public Participation Plan (PPP) of Spokane County was complied with according
13 to the Intervenors. They listed the numerous public participation opportunities available and
14 not menfiioned by the Petitioners. The .Intervenors contend that there was clearly sufficient
-
15 notice of the Amendment and opporfiunity to comment.
The Intervenors contend fihafi the Petitioners failed to brief a portion of the issue, the
16 holding of the hearings in the middle of a workday. They believe that this was abandoned.
17 Board Analvsis:
18 The County has a compliant Public Participation Program (PPP) and is required fio
19 follow it. The Petitioners have not shown where the County failed to comply with their own
20 PPP. In fact, the Petitioners admit that the Planning Commission had adequate public
21 participafiion and complain that there was inadequate public participation before the County
22 Commissioners. This objection is understandable where the County Commissioners did not
23 follow the recommendations of the Planning Commission. However, public participation
24 includes both thafi before the Commission and the County Commissioners. The Petitioners
have failed to carry their burden of proof. They have failed to show where the County failed
25 to follow its own PPP.

4 failing to brief it. This portion of the issue was dealing with the discouragement of new
5 residential development near airports.
Board Analvsis:
6
The GNiA was amended in 1996, to recognize the inherent social and economic
. 7
benefits of aviation and require thafi land use planning include consideration of general
8 aviation airports. RCW 36.70A.510 provides:
9 Adoption and amendment of comprehensive plan provisions and development
10 regulations under this chapter affecting general aviation airports-are subject to
RCW 36.70.547.
11
12 RCW 3670.547 provides as follows:
13 Every county, city, and town I which there is located a general aviation airport
t.' . that is operated for the beneFit of the general public,... shall, through its
, 14 comprehensive plan and development regulations, discourage the siting of
incompatible uses adjacent to such general aviation airport. Such plans and
15 regulations may only be adopted after formal consultation with: airport
16 owners and managers, private airport operafiors, general aviation pilots, ports,
and the Aviation Division of the Department of Transportafiion. All proposed
17 and adopted plans and regulations shall be filed with the aviation division of
18 the department of transportation within a reasonable time after release for

19
20 It is contended that the County notified the Spokane International Airport of the
21 subject application and received a letter back, which is part of the Record. That letter made
22 some suggestions regarding the handling of the development regarding the noise level. The
County further stated that a letter was sent to the Department of Transportation, when
23
asked if the Aviation Division of the DOT was contacted. The Record does not reflect other .

TO THE CITY OF Sl'OKANE XND ) COMMONLY RE-r~ERRED TO A.S )
"NVEST PLA1`uS/TH0.R.PE" )
MIST'ER CI3A.IRNIAN:
Tociay is the date that the Board of County Commissioners has set to render its, Decision in
- conjwiction with that area c;ommonly known as "VVest PlainsJThnrpe". 'rhat area is currently
designateci as an "LTrbart Growth ArealJoint Planning ArE;a" of Spokane Couniy:
In the Settlement Aareement execu[ed hy the Board on Juiy 29, 2003, under Resnlution io.
3-0710, thc Board ageeci to hold public hearing(s) its tn whether ar not the "West Plains/i`horpe"
area should be dcsignated as "Spokaiie County - City of Spokane Urban Growth Arca/Joint
Planning Area". After carefully considering lhe record submittecl to the Board at the Board's 2001 public
, hearing(s), Uie J7nuary 20, 2004, puhlic liearuig ancl ihe December 20, 2005, puUlic heariiig, I
ffEREBY M0VG to designate that area eeferred to as thc West Plains/Thorpe UGAIJPA as a
Spokane Coimty - City of SpokanE Urban Growth Area/Joint Planning tlrea (UGA/JPA)
comprising approximalely 11,$80 acres wilh the exception of that area contiguous lo the City of
Airway IIcights on either side of State Highway 2, apProximating 641 acres whieh is identified in
the attached map oF the area. The excepted area will retain its designation as a Spokane County
Urban Growth A.realJouit P13auiing Area.
I believe it is important to noce that the Count}wide Planning Policie-s t•equirc that deference
be givett to the continued viability of the Haiechild ,4ir Porce Base, the Spokane [nternational
Airport, and other smaller airports in the County. Accorcling[y, my motion also requires that a
notation be made on the finiil map regarding the NVese Plains.rl'horpe Spokane County - City of
. Spnkane Urban Gro«ql1 rlrea/Jaint Plwuung Area (UGA/JYA), that land use activities on the
property owned by the Spokane hiternational Ai.rports is subject to the Tnterlocal Agreement
beriveen Spokane Cpunty and the City of Spokane rcgarding the operation of the airport, the A.irport
Master Plan, and the applicablc statutes ancl regulations relating to airports.
( Page 1 pf 2
This motion is not only based on the record, but also the Plar►ning Goals set fnrth in the Growth iManagement Act and the County Wide Planning Policies.
GATA Planning Goal Number 11 requires the County to ensure coordination between
communities and jurisdictions and to reconcile con.flices. Count}wide Flanning Policy No. 2 aciopts
this ,oal in recognition of the Gounty's obligation to pravide for ` joint county and city planninp
witbin urban gmNvth areas." •
The record before tre Board indicates that the City of Airway Heialits desires to participate
in the planning of that area which is not includeci in the Spokane County-Cily of Spokane Urban . .
Growth ArealJoint Planning Arca. The City of Spokane urgcs the County to ignore the desires of
- the City oFAinvay Hcights witli respect to this area wtvch is adjacent to Airway Heights' boundary.
The Ciiy argues that the County is committed to include this area with tbe Spokane County-City of
Spok3ne iJrban Growth tlrea/Joinl Planning Area under the Settlement Ac.,~eement. Although the
Board is niindful of the City of Spokane's desire, it must he guided by the policies in the Growth
Management Act and Cotmtyvvide Planling Polices in. making its decisions. Vloreover the
Settlement acknowleciges the Board is responsible to holcl a public hearing on ttvs area and consider
all pubfic testimony such as that submittcd by Airway H.eights.
In making khis decision, the Board is not determini.ng that the exempt area is aSpokane
County-City of Airway Heigllts Urban Gi-owth Area/Jnint Planning Area. 'I'he Board cannnt make
that designation.• Instead, the area will retain its status as a Spokanc County Urban Growth
Area/Joint Planning Area. As such the City of Airway Heights can petition the Steering Committee ,
and make a case to include this area witlun its Urban GroNvth Area or. a Spokane County-City of
Airway Heights Urban GrUwth Area/Joint Planning A.rea
I would request that legal staf.f preparc Findings of Fact, Conctusions of Law and Decision)(7
reflecting this motion to be presented to the Board at a subseq«ent public meekinb.

NIIS'1'ER CHAMZAN:
Today is the date that the Board of County Commissioners has also set to rcnder its
• Decision iu conjunction with tlaat aeca commonly knovvil as "North Metro": That area is curresltly
designated as an "lJrban (irowih Area" of Spokane County. ,
tu the Settlcment Ageeement execiatcd by tiie Board on July 29, 2003, under Resolation No.
3-0710, the 13oard agreed to hold public hearing(s) as to whether or not any portion of the "NQrih
Metro" Area should be designated as "Spokaue County - City of Spokane Urban Gro«4h
Area/Joint I'lanning Area".
tlfier carefWly consiclering the record submittul to the 13oard at the Board's 2001 public
. hearing(s), the January 20, 2004, public hearing and the December 20, 2005, public hearing, I
HFREBY iV14VE to designate a portion of the area referred to as lhe iNarth Mctro UGA that lies
ea.st of State Highway 2(New•port X I.ighway), comPrising approximately 1,443 acres, whicl-area is
identified iLi dhe attaclled map as the Spokanc County - City of Spoi:ane vorth Metro Urban
Growth Area/Joint Planning Area (UGA/JPA). The remainder of [hc North Metto Area will retain
its dcsignation as thc Spokanc County North Metro Urbau GroN;'th A.rea: This metion is not only based on the record, but also the Growth Management Act and ihe
County Wide Pliuming PolieiE:s.
GNtA provides that each city that is lacated in a cotulty shall Ue iucluded within an urban
;ro~~rth area. GNIA also recognizes tliat ati urbati gcowth area may include territory.that is located
outsicie of a city only if such territory already is characterizetl by urban o owth or is adjacent tn
territory already characterized by urbaii growth. 'fhe Cauntywicle plannicig policies recognize
GMt1 and furthcr recognize the tuuque circiunstances of Spokane Coant,y. Speeifically, the
Counly%vide Planni.ng Pol.icies acknowledge that Urban Growth Areas may be established.

irldependent of incorporated areas. In such areas, urban govemmental services maybc providecl by '
other than cities.
The Countyvvide Planni.ng Policics Further set forEh the criteria which the Board must use i~~ .
establishing Urban Growth Areas. They include the following:
(1) The deterniination and proposal on an Urban Growth Area outside existing
incorporated limits shali be based on a jurisdiction's ability to provicie urban
' govemmental services at the minimum level Af service specifiod by the
Steering Connnittee
(2) The municipality tnust doctunent that iu-ban governmenlal services will be
provided within its existing city lirnits priar to the designation of an Urban
Grnw[h Area outside of existing city limits. To propose an Urban Growth
Area designation outsicle of their existing city limits, municipalities must
provide a full range of urban governmenlal services based on the
municipality's capitai facifities element of its comprehensive plan.
7'he Recorci before the $oard supports designating a portion of the hiorth Metro area
' describect above to be a Spokane County - City o.f Spokane Urban Growth ArenlJoint Planning
Area (UGA/JF'A). The City of Spokane is desigaatM as the primary provider of public sewcr
scrvice in this area. Public water scrvice in this area is provided by a number of separate public ' water purveyors. Desigmation of this area will not have an impact on adopted levels of se[vices.
Ideniifcation o£ the area as a Spokane Caunty - City of Spokane ~TOrth Metrn UGAl31'A recognizes the recently adopted Greater Morgan Acres Sub-area Plan and iniplementing zoncs.
The Record before the Board does not support desigmating the remainder of the Nor[h Metro Area, mqst of wtuch lies west of State Higltway 2, as a Spokane County - City of SPokane
Urban Growih Area/Joint Plancung Area. Accardingly, it shall retai.n its current designation as the
Spokane County-vorth Metro Urban Crowth Area. Ttie record indicates that Spokane Courity
aiid acher public service purveyors cuiYently provide the full range urban services in much of this
area and have the capacity to provicie urban services in the euti.re area. This area is almost totally
outside of the City of Spokane sewer scrvice area boundary. It is served by multip(e water
purveyors. A.lthougi the Comprehensive Plan and Capital Facilities Plctn of the City of Spokane
refc,-rence this area it does not substantiate that the City has the ability to provide andJor m~untain
' adoptul levels of service in that area.
hi designating a pnrtion of the North Metro Area as a Spokane County - City of Spokanc
Urban Growth Area/roint Planning tlrea, the Board is not suggesting that this area should be
annexed Co the City. The Boarcl's decision also does not imply or assume that the populalion
allocation assigned to this area has been re-allocated to the City of Spokane. Such a re-allocatiou .
would require formal action by the Steering Committee of EIECCcd Officials and Bflard of Cotmty
Commissioners, pursuant to the Coiuitywicle Planning Policies.
1'Age 2 'of 3 ,
1 would request that Iegal staff prepare T'indings of Fact, Conclusions of L,axv and Decision
refleeting this motion to bc presentecl to tlie Board at a subsequent public meeting.
