BACKGROUND: Spokane County has estimated for planning purposes only, that the County will receive $1,500,000 in CDBG funding for the 2008 program year. There are statutory limits on the administration and planning allocation of 20% of new funds or approximately $300,000. Also limited by statute is the human service allocation at 15% of available funds or approximately $225,000. Both the 20% for administration and 15% for human service programs (approximately $525,000) are deducted from the estimated $1.5 million available for the 2008 program year, resulting in approximately $975,000 available for capital projects. These amounts do not include any program income or de-obligated funds, which are unknown at this time. City staff met on September 218E to identify potential projects that would qualify for CDBG funding. The following list of projects is preliminary based on city staff's evaluation of CDBG eligible projects. Preliminary cost estimates are currently being developed and will be brought forward to the Council at the October 9t" meeting. 1. Rockwell Sewer Project - Full width paving 2.

Both streets are utilized for traffic circulation and on-street parking. 3. The implementation of the Sprague Appleway Revitalization Plan could place greater reliance on local streets for access and circulation. 4. The Public Works Department has proposed that the vacation of Sipple Street be denied, and the vacation of f=irst Avenue allowed only if an agreement can be made to extend Sipple Street 'through to Appleway Blvd. The extension of Sipple'Street would improve circulation and access 'to businesses on the north side of Sprague. 5. The City of Spokane Valley's Comprehensive Plan encourages connecting streets and blocks. 2 of 2 r-rrn CITY OF SPOKANE V, EY (F, .

However, the gas will be a problem as there are gas mains on Sipple south from Sprague and a service going across Sipple. There is also a gas main on the north side of 1st going toward Sargent. Avista would need access to both gas mains and the service and would need to continue any and all easements attached to these. If you have any questions, you can e-mail me or call me at 495-4304.

C laiLll THAV-14A.40m rtl.IL]l.aLtE. uJON L WWTB.6r• f..ANA YA.Y ~ STET ittOUM" Dear Gail Kogle, Chair., and Members of the Planning Commission: OF COUNSEL All. By way of a follow-up to our August 23, 2007, letter in support of the above-referenced . H. Tw. oA.ml. t.sA. • A3n.4dLei0Xd* Petition for Vacation, we would like to add the following as additional comments to the t w!o udae a Qe,Ae City of Spokane Valley Staff Report as well as to those concerns voiced by those ei1Jw .:rt,,,e~OUfaf. mo members of the Plan Commission who were present at the August 23, 2007, hearing. ~ ~A..331ce u:~, dy First, with respect to the statement that Appleway Toyota would be forced to relocate if it were unable to expand and enlarge its facility, we would like to make it clear that is not something Appleway Toyota would consider but rather comes from Toyota itself. Appleway works for Toyota, not the other way around. If Appleway Toyota carrot expand, its options are limited. It is also interesting to note that Toyota is the biggest seller on Auto Row and thereby the Spokane Valley. The loss of Apple-,vay Toyota to Auto Row will affect all of Auto Row as a whole. If you relocate Toyota to Liberty Lake or Post Falls, it would enhance the viability of every auto dealership that currently exists in those areas to the detriment of Auto Row. In short, Toyota enhances all of Auto Row as it draws new car buyers for all types of automobile sales from all areas. Currently, Toyota is t1-3e most popular brand in the world and has tremendous drawing capacity with respect to new car sales. The Staff Report is in error with respect to Paragraph 9, Land Use. Chapter 2, Land Use 2.9.1, Street Connectivity does not apply to Auto Row to residential neighborhoods and/or other neighborhoods such as the city center. Auto Row is not in the City Center since Policy LUP-7.1 deals with to improved traffic around and through the "city center" by extending the street networking creating smaller blocks it is not applicable. Sipple and First Avenues are not located in the City Center as designated as the Comprehensive ' Plan but rather are located 112 that part designated as an Auto Row overlay classification. City of Spckaue Valley Planning OoMMissioln September 13, 2007 Page 2 As stated earlier, on Page S, bapu r 2, Land Use No. 3, Auto Row ovorlay states, The City has several T)ew auto dealerships located along Sprague. Aveihue, The majority of these dealerships are located be, }veeD Argonne, Road acid T Jennan Road... New car• dealerships provide the City witb substantial sales tax revewne and can have. sipifkaut visual impact on a couilnurrity and soma hat ul quo »eeds related to developaxzer,t standards, such as stgnage, and street froutage landscape. This scenario recognizes these ci.rcurnstanees and designates areas as identified above apprupnately and provides policy direcFion for imp Iniaentiai~ dewelopment regulations. The appropriate ornpreheiuive Plan deli oation is LUP 2.5.2, Auto Row O 6T]ay, and 2.11-, Goals and Policy, specifically LUG-5- Autoniobile dealerships require- vast amounts of laud, ARy requimment for "creating smaller b]ocks" for people to get around "snort easily" contradicts and Is in conflict with the above cited elements of th e oanpiebensive Plan. Therefor~. Policy L P 1 .1 is not applicable to Auto loo %V bat is more applicable to residential developrnertt. We are cu-Tious as to why the staff noglected to brinb those elexneuts of the Comprehensive flan to di.e Plai, enuldssion's attention. ff the car dealerships ou Auto Rove are not allowed to eDlarge and expand as required b 1 their manufactarers, then the City may vi-.r well be faced with a real.possibalil that those facilities tbat cLirrently exist will became varw t and the concrete jungle curteritl in existence will only detedorate .Further. One need m-d look at the results of " Nome base" to 'LLnderstand what could occur. We have attached to this letter the Site plan as well as an 1E legation D.rawiu that are illustrative of what.Appleway Toyota is attempting to accomplisb. This 15 the current state of design and concept for new car dealerships. This is what die applical3t wishes to accomplish through the vacati.oai process. Please note thai there is suffi.ciput ci-os5 access betwen Sprague Avenue and Appleway to acconYmodate access to die site as v,,el[ as allow traffic adLzing Sargent and Vista for cross access as weil. Finally, by eiihancii)g their. facility, other dealerships will be forced to follow suit. This becomes the begnning of the revitalization and remodeling of the el7tire Auto Row as couteri}plated b the City of Spokane Valley's ompreber,siv a Plan. ;`.^AU.monuien 6G914Ca~sponderrelCtiLy d5prc ~ alley Itr 0313G7_dot Cite of.

These comments are based on the criteria for street vacation listed in Chapter 10.05.320 of the Spokane Valley Municipal Code. A. Whether a change of use or vacation of the street or alley will better serve the public; No. The vacation as proposed will not better serve the public. B. Whether the street or alley is no longer required.for public use or access; No. On-street parking is well-utilized on both Sipple and First. Most of the traffic volume appears to be related to the adjacent businesses. C. Whether the substitution of a new and different public way would be more useful to the public; Yes. We recommend that the vacation of Sipple be denied; and the vacation of First allowed only if an agreement can be made to extend Sipple through to Appleway. Lack of cross-street access between Sprague and Appleway is a frequent complaint of area businesses. This proposed through connection would be approximately halfway between Vista and Sargent, which are 1400 feet apart. The extension. of Sipple would improve circulation and access to businesses on the north side of Sprague. D. Whether conditions may so change in the future as to provide a greater use or need than presently exists; The implementation of the Sprague Appleway :Revitalization Plan could place greater reliance on local streets for access and circulation. E. Whether objections to the proposed vacation are made by owners of private property abutting the street or alley or other governmental agencies or members of the general public. Public Works is not aware of any objections at this time. 1 Additional Considerations: The part 11-);valuation Criteria in the application packet contains incorrect information regarding stormwater..facilities. It states that there are no existing stormwater drainage facilities within the subject right-of-way. Based on the storm-,vater facility inventory, these segments of Sipple and First contain 4 catchbasins and 6 drywells.

The First Touch in the Council agenda process for Council consideration of the Model, was this memo as an information only item included in the September 18, 2007 Council packet. The City of Spokane Valley supports its six-year Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) with one Sr. Engineer - CIP to manage the program, and three FTEs. The Pending Ideas List of the draft Business Plan identified the addition of a Capital Project Design and Inspection Team. The proposed model described below is a variation on that concept. It would increase the four-person Capital Improvement Program (CIP) division to a total of eight positions, including the Sr. Engineer who manages the program. There would be no net increase to the General Fund to implement this prograrn - the increased cost would be funded by the scheduled capital projects. The Finance Committee discussed the proposal at its September 7 meeting, and there was unanimous support for it. City of Spokane Valley drganizational Model The 2008 - 2013 TIP includes 27 projects totaling $29.2 million. This includes only those projects that have already secured funding, as well as the STEP projects involving curb-to-curb paving. The TIP also includes approximately $1.3 million per year in Real Estate Excise Tax (RFET) funding for road preservation projects. The number of projects the $1.3 million can fund, varies from year to year depending upon the scope of the project(s). In addition to the street infrastructure projects, the CIP division is responsible for managing the construction projects for parks (e.g., CenterPlace and the Universal Park projects), stormwater projects affecting the City's road system; and developer funded projects (e.g., traffic signal installation or other road-related upgrades). Spokane Valley currently contracts out most of the design and construction work. 14owever, managing each project is a critical responsibility assumed to City staff to ensure that consultants are accomplishing the work according to City specifications. Examples of project management tasks include the following: Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Organizational Model, continued September 18, 2007 Page 2 of 6 • Advertising for, selecting, contracting with and overseeing the work of consultants; • Making decisions on design elements of each project; • Participating in public meeting processes; • Monitoring project budgets; • Ensuring all environmental and grant requirements are met; • Coordinating grant reimbursements; • Overseeing the construction bidding process and selection of contractors; • Overseeing the construction management of the projects; and • Project closeout. The City's TIP is funded through a combination of federal and state grants, as well as local resources. It should be noted that the effort uivolved in managing a federally-funded project is approximately 30% greater than a City- or state-funded project. On federally funded projects, the Project Manager must ensure that the federal Highway Administration (FHNAIA) and WSDO1 requirements as outlined in the Local Agency Guidelines are met. These requirements are more specific and detailed compared to non- federally funded projects. The City's current staffing level in the CIP division is not sufficient to manage the projects for which the City has already secured funding, let alone those projects in the adopted TIP which are proposed for future grants. The following table shows a proposed staffing level for the CIP division. Proposed Structure Position Current FTE Proposed FTE Sr. Engineer - CTP Program Manager 1.00 1.00 Sr, Engineer - Proiect NIgmt (non-supervisory) 0.00 2.00 Engineer 1.00 0.00 Assistant Engineer 1.00 1.00 Engineering Technician Il 0.00 1.00 Engineering Technician I 1.00 2.00 Administrative Assistant 0.00 1.00 Total 4.00 8.00 This model is based on the continued premise that the City will contract out most of the design and construction work. However, it does add some flexibility to use in-house design when that is the more cost effective choice. With this model, the City could create two project management teams, made up of one Senior Engineer, one Assistant Engineer (or Engineering Tech 11), and one Engineering Tech I. Among the three positions on each team, they would be responsible for oversight of design; project and grant administration; construction oversight; and construction inspection. 'Currently the City has only one Engineering Technician classification. This proposed model would convert the existing classification into an Engineering Technician I, and would create a second classification of Engineering % Technician LI.

I 1 Frolecl Managerent'ream I Protect Management Team -fl- Personnel lmpacts This proposal results in one new classification - the Engineering Technician 11. It would be placed at Grade 15, one grade above the current Engineering Technician (1) classification. See below for more detail on the new classification. It would also transfer the FTE authorization for the currently vacant Engineer position into the Senior Engineer (non-supervisory) classification. This position already exists on the City's classification system at Grade 17, one grade above the Engineer position. Financial Analysis There would be no net impact to the General Fund to implement this model. The current FTE are budgeted in the General Fund at approximately $370,000. The estimated gross amount of the four additional positions is $3 t 5,000. The positions in this division, both current and proposed, spend the majority of their time on individual capital projects. That time can be directly charged to those projects, so the General Fund would only pay for the non-chargeable portion of the employee's time. All seven of the non-managerial positions in the division would need to charge projects for at least 55/0 of their time in order to have zero impact on the General Fund. This share of their time is a conservative estimate of what they can be expected to spend on individual projects. Capital Improvement Program (CIi') Organizational Model, continued September 18, 2007 Page 4 of f., Other Considerations The City is in the process of recalibrating its TIP schedule. Several of the projects that were scheduled for completion by the end of 2007 have not been completed due to staffing levels among other reasons. They will be moved into 2008 and future years, which in turn will delay projects already scheduled for those years. This proposal will help the City improve its project completion rate. It marks a significant increase in the staff available to work on the City's Cl?. However, once fully operational it will need to be analyzed to determine whether this model is sufficient to meet the City's CIP implementation needs. In addition, there are several major unresolved topics, any of which would require a re-evaluation of the CIP staffing level. Examples include: • Street Master Plan implementation • Sprague-Appleway Revitalization Plan and City Center public infrastructure • Bridging-the-Valley (beyond current level) Engineering Technician U. Description This position would compile, monitor, verify and reconcile financial data, including information related to grants in the Capital Improvement Program. The position is distinguished from the Engineering Technician position by work of greater technical depth acid problem solving tasks in more specific engineering related designing and drafting assignments. Specifically, some of the duties of this position would include: • Responsible for completing complex work assigmments in a variety of technical areas, such as: survey, mapping, design, traffic, inspection, utility location and engineering project management., • Provide technical and administrative support to project managers in research, process analysis, project management, communications, regulatory compliance, presentations, and report development. • Assist in the planning and completion of public works projects by preparing preliminary designs, drafting projects according to specifications and inspecting projects in progress or as completed to ensure project is completed according to standards. • Perform a variety of finance functions including compiling; monitoring, verifying and reconciling financial data, such as public works trust fiend loans. • Monitor and track local, state and federal grants for CIP projects for compliance purposes; work with granting agencies to prepare project agreements and submit timely grants reimbursements on a monthly or quarterly basis. This position is proposed to be classified at Grade 15, which compares with similar positions in Washington state. Although their titles varied, the City used as comparison the Senior Engineering Technician category identified in the AWC Salary and Benefit Survey.

While all of the jurisdictions provided some information, Lakewood, Shoreline, wid Yakima provided sufficient background infonmation to serve as a comparison. It is difficult to completely compare any two jurisdictions, because there are many different ways to provide the service. However; these cities do allow for some surface analysis. Please note that the total number and value of the projects listed for each of the cities represents their complete six-year .EE. They likely include both funded and yet-to-be funded projects. This does not perfectly compare to Spokane Valley's TIP numbers listed above, which only include the projects whose funding has been secured.

Yakima Uodel The City of Yakima has an estimated population of 82,940.- Its proposed 2008-2013 TIP includes 72 projects totaling $150.7 million.3 Yakima divides the responsibilities of developing and managing the. TIP across three departments: Public Works, Finance, and Community & Economic Development (CED). The CED's Capital Projects and Engineering Division has the majority responsibility. It has a total of fifteen FTE, including the Division Manager. Position FTE Project Engineer. 2.00 Design Engineer 2.00 Total 4.00 The above four positions appear to be dedicated to capital projects. The remaining eleven positions divide their time between capital projects and private development. Yakima could not provide an estimated division of the time. Yakima does most of its CCP engineering design and inspection in-house, but contracts them out for large projects. They contract out the vast majority of construction, as well as some of the analysis and modeling tasks. Proposal Summary This proposal would increase the 2008 preliminary budget by two additional positions, change the classification of two currently budgeted positions, and create a new position on the City's classification matrix, which appears in the 2008 Employee Salary Schedule. There is no net increase to the General Fund for this model, because the cost will be paid through charges to projects on the CIP. 3 This includes three railroad grade separation projects totaling $48.8 million.

BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: STAFF CONTACT: Dave Mercier City of Spokane Valley Introduction of the FY 2008 Preliminary Budget Prepared By David Mercier, City Manager .July 31, 2007 A. It is my pleasure to submit a balanced preliminary budget for Council consideration. This budget proposal acknowledges the fiscal constraints of the City and concentrates on sustaining core program responsibilities, consistent with direction from the City Council. B. Again this year, the Cln• Council Finance Committee has worked closely with administrative staff in e-ramining and understanding the budget construction process, the cost control methods applied to the emerging budget, and the financial data upon which the budget is based C. As prescribed by City Council, the seen (7) specific goals for Council and stag' fi)c us iYul acc'aml,lislunent in 2008 are to 1. Continue monitoring wastewater issues, including governance of wastewuter facilities, and pursuit of the most efficient and economical methods to ensure the continuation of %uste%vater discharges licenses. 2. Refine initial departmental six-year business plane in order to idcntifv and incorporate fiscal impacts into a strategic financial plan. 3. Formulate a Six-Year Struteeic Financial Plan by July 20011 that forecasts expected revenues and expenses; incorporates the cost elements of departmental business plans; identifies fiscal constraints; and, proposes formulas for Council consideration that institute sustainable budget-halaneing approaches and itemize necessary scryice rcductions or revenue increases or combinations thereof. 4_ Initiate implementation of the subarea plan for the SpraguelAppleway Revitali7ntion Plan. 5. Adopt are:-wide rezonine pryposals consistent with the comprehensive plan that reflect appropriate adjustments in zoning designations. 6. Perform an analysis of a landowner initiated request for annexation. 7. -Draft a Shoreline Mauer Proeram. D. Conservative fiscal policies geared toward the attainment of long-term financial health for the City are recommended for adoption in the Final Budget. Afeeting the targets established by these fiscal policies require a commitment to fitnd on/v those levels of service that are fiscally sustainable. E. This Preliminary Budget adheres to the fiscally responsible principles established in 2004. Sevleral measures worthy of comment are: 1. The utilization of conservative revenue projections and realistic expenditure fam-casts in the construction of this budget proposal-as we guard against fiscal disappointments. 2. The constraint of programmatic growth-no new programs. A commitment to end the year with a positive fund balance in all funds. 4. Marketing CenterPlace total opportunities and thereby defray year-round ope m ional expenses. 5. Periodically updating the six-Near financial forecast to alert the city to fiscal trends. F. Several positiv fiscal indiewors arc reflected in the propr.)sed Prelinrinarti Budget. 71eY include: 1. Achievement of the goal to establish $5,000,000 Civic Facilities Reserve marks the completion of the fourth reserve fund target established in 2004. 2. Sale tax receipts continuo to increases, but at a moderate pace. 3. No new debt--we continue to operate on a pay-as-you go basis. 4. Continued leveraging of state and federal funds to reduce the cost of local capital improvements borne by city residents resulted in a 49% savings. 5. An initial multiyear business plan for each operating department is relied upon to forecast the number of new employees needed to meet growing demand for service. Hcnce, nine new positions have been included in the proposed FY 2008 budget. G. 17w remaining action steps toward adoption of the bma qct inc lu, 1. August 14: Outside agencies pre.untations 2.

Sienitictuit Clianges to the 2008 B diet A review of the 2008 preliminary budget rcveals the following significant changes: Revenues 1. Sales tax receipts have been increased $500,000 reflecting growth in retail sales. No change in sales tax receipts is expected from the implementation of the state streamlined sales tax receipts program. 2. The city property tax rate is expected to be $1.55 per thousand dollars of assessed value. 3. Planning and Building fees and Fines & Forfeitures remain almost unchanged from 2007. L•'xpcnditures 1. Nine new positions have beers added to the proposed budget for 2008, based on the preliminary multiyear busirims plans prepared by departments. They include: a half-time Deputy City Clerk; a half-time Human Resource assistant; an administrative. A"- yst; an Accountant/Budgct Analyst; two maintenance positions at CenterPlace; a Capital Project Engineer, and a public works Administrutive Assistant- $75,000 has been budgeted for a voice activated inspection system in the building division. 3. General Fund expense..-, are greater than the projections in the City's Multiyear financial plan, due to transfers to the Civic Facilities & Civic Facilities Repair & Replacement Funds. 4. Parks capital improvements planned for 2008 have been budgeted at $500,000. There will likely be improvements scheduled for 2007 that will not be finished and "ifl be carried over ($3,000.000) into 2008. II 5. $150,000 has been budgeted for the preparation of a needs inventory under the Americans with Disabilities Act. lnidal improvements may also be constructed during the year. 6. A trattsportalion impact tire: study (Styr-et Fund) has been budgeted in 2008 in the amount of S'7 10.000, 12 I )nder Washington State Law, RCW 82.46.010, the City is allowed to impose an additional excise tax on each sale of real property at the rate of one-quarter of one percent of the selling price.

" On May 21, 2002, voter: within the City approved incorporation of the City of Spokane Valley, which is the second largest city in the County and the seventh largest city in the State, with approximately 88,000 residents. The City incorporated as of March 31, 2003. The assessed valuation of read property within the boundaries of the City for taxation purposes is estimated fir 2008 tar collection to be approximately $6,606,000,000. Spokane Valley encompasses approximately 38.2 square miles of land area. It has an extensive retail tax base and is home to several major auto dealerships and the Spokane Valley Mall, which includes over 700,000 square feet of gross leasable floor area. There are an estimated 4,000 businesses in Spokane Valley with estimated retail sales of $1.66 billion. The first permanent settler in the Spokane Valley was Antoine Plante, a retired French- Canadian trapper. Mr. Plante built a cabin near the Spokane River in 1849, from which he operated a small Hudson's Bay Company trading post. Other settlers began arriving in this area between 1865 and 1882. "Firsts" to occur in Spokane Valley include the first settler in 1849, first business and ferry in 1850, the f rst store and bridge in 1862, the first house in 1866, and the first post office in 1867. All of these "firsts" occurred before the arrival in 1873 ofJames Glover who was considered the "Father of Spokane-" In 1883, the Northern Pacific Railroad opened the west up with the transcontinental railroad. The new railroad, coupled with the discovery of silver in north Idaho, created an influx of people to the Spokane Valley area. Within a few years the Spokane area wag connected to the rest of the country by five transcontinental railroads. The next major innovation to Spokane Valley was the introduction of irrigation to the area. Within 20 years 30,000 acres of dry land had been converted into fertile farm land. The first irrigation systems were constructed between 1899 and 1905. The Valley population grew fmm 1,000 residents at the turn of the century to nearly 10,000 by 1922. During this time apple growing became the predorninant agricultural crop with nearly 2 million apple trees being planted by 1912. As the population of the Valley increased, small communities with churches, schools, businesses, community clubs, and other orgartirations thrived 74 The City- of Spokane Valley operates a number of parks within the City.
