CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY
' Request for Council Action
Meeting Date: April 5, 2005 City Manager Sign-off:
Item: Check all that apply: ❑ consent X old business ❑ new business ❑ public hearing
❑ information ❑ admin. report ❑ penciing legislation
AGENDA ITEM TITLE: SpraguelAppleway Valley Corridor Discussion - Right-of-Way Quit
Claim Deed
GOVERNING LEGISLATION:
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: February 3; 2004 the Council requested SRTC to
model traffic for the Couplet Project. At the joint Council/Planning Commission meeting on
February 23, 2004 three couplet alternatives were selected for further s#udy by Public VUorks
staff, At the April 6, 2004 Council meefing option 2A was presented to Council and the decision
was made to suspend further study on that option. At the January 18, 2005 staff presented
history and concerns that SRTC had not completed the traffic modeling.
~ BACKGROUND:
Valley Corridor Project:
Interim Traffic Model -(See attached letter to SRTC)
Scope of Work for RFP -(See attached scope of work)
Right-of Way Quit Claim Deed -(See attached Deeds)
Suggested changes:
o Page 2, # 1, second line - the words "and shall be properly maintained in good condition
for these purposes." should be removed.
o Page 2, # 2, first paragraph -clarify in this paragraph that any right to operate, maintain,
alter, construct, etc. the se+,ver or road is subject to all applicable permit requirements the
City has adopted for such activity.
o Page 2, # 2, sec4nd paragraph - ths words "or allow to be caused" are not acceptable in
this context due to the following sentences, which state that "any such damage is the
sole responsibility and liability of Grantee and hereby covenants with Grantor that
Grantee will pay for any damage done at any time hereafter to the sanitary sewer lines,
their appurtenances and the access road." We will be respflnsible for, and pay for;
damage we cause, but we should not be a guarantor for damage cause by others.
o Page 3, # 4, first paragraph - the bottom line refers to uses of the property, and thaf
~ Grantee shall grant an easement related to public transportation uses. This sentence
should end after joint use of the Property for public transportation purposes.u The
remainder of that paragraph should be removed. lNe also need to clarify to whom the
City would grant an easement io. It is not clear if it is intended to be Spokane County, or
another entity that may propose a form of public transportation for thaf area.
o The City should have the right to place utilities, public or private in the ROW, and make
other reasonably related uses of the ROW. In the donafion document the language
should read, "transferred and conveyed for street, utility (public and private), and all
other reasonably related purposes consistent with the authority of the City to control and
manage the property under the laws of Washington."
o Page 2, #3, I would recommend that we not assume the risk for hazardous substances.
If we do then we should consider a full environmental assessment on the property. We
may also want to include a condition that allows us to return the ROW to the County in
the event that we encounter significant hazardous materials.

Glenn Miles
Transportation Manager
Spoka,ne Regional Trdnsportation Council
221 W. First Ave., Suite 310
Spol:ane, Washington 99201
lte: Iaterim Regional Traffic Moclel
Dear Glenn:
For more than a ycar the City of Spokane Valley Public Works dcpartmcnt has been
wrorl:ing vkith you, ynur staff, and other area transportation agenc:ies to try to get tbe
Spokane regional transpartation demand model to a point that reasonably reflects existing
~ traffic counts and reasonably estimates increases in future traf_~c volumes. During this
time SRTC has used three different computcr traf~ic models (EMMF,✓2, TMODEL2, and
`
now VISLTN).
Wc have spent numerous hours reviewing the results of each of SRTC's mvdel versions.
SRTC has made two attempts to calibrate the model, first to 2000 traffic count data and
most recently to 2003 count data. We have submitted many comments and suggestions
to SRTC in an effort to get a mhre accurate and reasonable model.
Last week Wednesday we received the latest version of SR'1 C's interim model, which
included recent comments from WSDOT, Spokane County, and on]y same of our
recommcnded suggestions. We have reviewed the results of this latest model and are still
nat comfortable with its results. Her.e is an example of some of our concems:
1. There are still somc major differences between modeled and counted volumes on
several major arterials in the 2003 network. For example:
• EB Appleway east of Pazk in the model shhws 2064. Counted 2003 volumes
were 2771.
• FB Appleway west of University- in the model shows 1286. Caunied 2003
volumes were 2141.
IB Sullivan between Sprague and Broadway in the model is around 670.
• 'N
Counted 2004 volumes were 1229.
• NVB Sprague west of Sullivan is only 482. Counted 2003 volumes were 1024.
Glenn Miles 3/29/2005
Interim Regiona] "I'raffic Model Page 2
Most of these are centereci on the retail area of SPrague Avenuc. Rle believe that if
the i7cstinatians for non-CBTa retail were iricrea..sed, perhaps these link volumes `
wnuld increase to mateh 2003 counts.
• NB Argonne between Y.nox and Montgomery is 2533. Counted 2003
vo1 umes were 1600.
• SB Argonnc behveen Knox and Montgomery is 2372. Counted 2003 volumes
were 1415.
An analysis of thcsc high volumes on Argonne shows some ocid behavior of inbound
and outbound Tndustrial Park traffic f'ollowing Trent between Sul]ivan and Argonnc,
and using the A.rgnnne intcrchange to acc:ess 1-90 rather than Sullivan.
2. '1`bere are signifieant problems with the trip generation rates for the non-CBll retail
Transportation Analysis 7ones ('fAZ).
•"I"t1Z 416 (Nfalley Mall) has 1648 Orionaiing trips but only 298 Destination
trips (an 85/15 split).
• The 11'E Trip Generatyon Manual under LU 820 (Shopping Centcr) shows
ihere should be a PM peak enteri.ng/exiting sPlit of 48/52.
• A sinoilar split is reported for Electronic Superstore, Office Supply SuPerstore;
and Bvok Superstore,,which are also included in'1'AZ 416. .
• Sdme comment for TA7 243 ($roadway `Val-Mart), which has 45$
Originating trips and 241 Destination (a 66/34 split). JTE reports a 49/51 split
for this type of PM peak.
3. TAG 257 includes the Spokane Industrial Park and has virtually no dwelling units.
However, it has 4088 Orig, 3394 Dest, and 425$ I.nternal trips. We question whether
the Intemal trips Should be higher than the Origins for a TAZ with na dwelling units?
4. 1-90 in doArotown is coded with a capaciiy ot' 2000 pephpl, and a volume-delay curve
that is considerably different from speed-flow relationships in thc I-tigbway Capacity
Manual. See attached ehart. For example, on one link the assiSnment results in 6307
for a V/C of 105%. With this volume the iravel time for this 0.6 mile segznent jumps
f.rom 35 seconds to 46 rainutes. This equates to a voluxne of 2102 vehicle per lane.
Per the HCM, the freeway should be operaling at LOS E with speeds of 45-65 mph.
5. lhe current modcl shows a signifcantly lower volume of traffic on 1-90 and Sprague
Avenue than would re.asonably be expected. '1`here is also a significant increase in
traffic on Brnadway Avenue easl of the interchange at I-90. The model currently
indicates tliat in the year 2025 more eastbound traffic will exit 1-90 onto Broadway
Avenue (3148 trips east of Park Rd.) than onto the couplet (2867 trips on Appleway
east of Pazk Rd.). Broadway Avenue has two lanes eastbound while Appleway has
four lanes eastboiuid. Also, the 3148 trips indicdted on Broadway Avenue
significantly exceed the model's ttivo-lane castbound capacity of 1200 cars/hour/lan.e `
~

Interim Regiandl Traffic Model Page 3
~J (ar 2400 tatal eastbound capacity). Appleway, with four eastbounri lanes, has a
model capaciry of 6000 cars.
6. 'I`hcre are only six sieps in the Incremental assignment in the current model. PTV
recnmmends using "more and smaller increments tn smooth the effects of Y/C ratio
delays". In general PTV also recommends using the Equi.librium assignment method
rather than the Incremental assigmment method alone. A sensitivity analysi.s we
performed shows that using twclve steps for the Incremental assignmcnt method
corrects many of the assigiment c,oncerns we identified on EB 1-90 and on $roadway
Avenue.
7. We had talked at one time at a Mode1 Users Group mceting about some adjustments
to future grnwth allocations based oa the fact that volumes on reccnt improvement
Projects are exceeding previous allacations. 1 he status of these allUCations is
unknown with rcgard to the current 2025 mpdel version.
SRTC staf[ has indicated ttiat rather than spend more time evaluaiing ancl making morc
ehanges to this model, they would rather move forward with the development nf a new
reeianal model that would be built from scratch using local GIS data. We undcrstand this
new model woulcl ta}:e up to a year to complete and would include results from the Home
Iuterview Survey that S.RTC is currently embarking on, which is not scheduled to be
completed until later this summer.
~ Some of the impacts to the citv of noi having a reasonable interim regional transportation
model at this time arc as follows:
• Impairs our ability to coinplete the LOS Interscction Analysis needed f6r the
Comp Plan since future traffic volumes are questianable
• llclays our ability to complete the Transporcation Element of the Comp Plan since
we don't have accurate numbers to identify current deficiencies
• Delays our abilily to complete the Capital Facilities element of the Comp Ylan,
again since future tratfic volumes are in quesrion
• lmpacts our ability to analyze altematives fnr the Valley Corridor project because
there appears io be errors in the future traffic projectians
. Impairs our abitity to plan for future transportation projects to include in our Six
Year TIP
• I7oes not allow us to move forward, if Council chposes to do so, on developuig
transportation i.mpact fees for new development
In order for the Cit}, to proceecl with the above issues without additional delay, we will
revise the interim model ourseives to address the c9ncerns listcd above. Specifically we
plan to malce the following revisians:
1. Moclify the capacity of freeway la.nes to 2300 vphpl.
-'2. i.nvestigate and possibly mal:e adjustments to the volume-clelay curves to better
match the IICM.
Cilenn Miles 3/29/2005
lnterim Regional T'raf_fic Model Page 4
3. Minor edits to the centroid connector weights as needed
4. Inerease the destinaiions For non-CI3L7 retail to get link volumcs to closer matcb
2003 counts .
5. Re-run the model A4th either a 12-step lncrcmental assignment or an Equilibrium
assignment
6. Provide substantial post-processing of the model results
Once these changes are made we will pravide you a copy of the base 2003 and 2025
model versions alang -,A2th a list of the changes that werc made.
Un a separate but related issue, we wanted to infiorm you that we are presenti.ng to the
City Council next Tuesday night a requcst to issue an FtFQ f.'or the selr;ction of a
consultant tA assist us in the environmen.tal evaluation of the Valley Corridor F'roject.
A contract wit:h the selected consultant will be consistent with the scope of work that you
rec;ently commented on. The contraci will include the development of a TransportatiAn
17iscipli.ne Report and an EniTironmental A.ssetsment. 'fhc purpose of tlus effort vNill be
to provide the infnrmation necessary to get SRTC approval lo place the Valley Corridor
Project on the MTP. Once on the YVITP we vNRll then begin the Preli.minary Engineering
phase that Nvas recently seler,ted for funding by SRTC.
Please let us know if you have dny cpmments. We look forward to work:i.ng wifh y4u an -these projects. . Sincerely,

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Study Session: Consideration of an ordinance amending the Sign
Regulations
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: Spokane Valley Municipal Code Article V Signage Standards
Secfion 10.30.660 amending the interim Zoning Code Chapter 14.804.
PREVIOUS COUNCIUCOMMISSION ACTION: City Council was briefed on the progress of
the Ad Hoc Sign Committee on July 24, 2004. Mr. David Crosby, Chair of the Comrnittee,
reported on the findings of the Committee on October 12, 2004. On December 9, 2004, the
Planning Commission met with the Ad Hoc Sign Committee in a study session to review the
Committee's recommendations. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on proposed
amendments on January 13, 2005, and recommended approval by a vote of 4 to 2 with the
Chairman not voting. City Council was briefed on the propased amendments on January 25,
2005. The proposed ordinance was advanced fo a second reading on March 8, 2005.
BACKGROUND: Chapter 14.804 of the Interim Zoning Regulations regulates the placement
and dimensions of signage. The Ad Hoc Committee was charged with the "review and update"
of the existing regulations. The Commi#tee met on a regular basis from mid-June through the
first week of December, 2004. The meetings were held in fhe Council Chambers and were
open to the public. Commitfee deliberations were also posted on the Cify's web site.
Signs are classified as On-premises (advertising goods or services on site) and Off-premises.
Billboards are off-premises signs. On-premises signs are either temporary (e.g. real estate
sale) or permanent, and may or may not require a permif. Permanent sign types include
attached or "wall" signs and free-standing signs. Free-standing signs include bath "pole° signs
and monument signs. Permanent signs require a permit.
Local government may regulate the time, place and manner of commercial "speech", but rnay
not control the message.
The Committee has recommended amending provisions which are not inconsistent with the
Interim Comprehensive Plan immediately, including:
• Updatsd definitions
• Updated height, maximum copy area and spacing standards
• Measurement of irregular signs
The Committee also recommended amendments which should be considered following the
adoption of the new Comprehensive Plan, including:
• Amending "aesthetic corridor" designations within Spokane Valley
• "Cap and Replace" for billboards
The draft ordinance was forwarded to CTED for their review on November 2, 2004. A
Determination of Non-Significance was also issued on November 2, 2004. The comment period
expired on December 2, 2004. CTED has not commented on the draft ordinance.

Item: Check all that apply; ❑ consent X old business ❑ new business ❑ public hearing
❑ informafion ❑ admin. report ❑ pending legislation
AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Pavement Nianagement and Associated Policy Issues
GOVERNING LEGISLATION:
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN:
BACKGROUND:
Discussions Items:
• Pavement Management Categories
1. 6-Year Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) - See attached draft 2006-2011 TIP
o City Arterial Streets
o Includes Improvement and Preservation Projects
o Eligible for State or Federal Funding
2. 6-Year Residential Preservation Street Plan - See attached 6-Year Plan
o City Residential Streets
o Includes Improvement and Preservation Projects
o Generally not eligible for State or Federal Funding
3. Sewer Paveback Projects
o Includes the addition cost for full pavement replacement in Sewer Projects
4. Street Maintenance
o Minor pavement repair and replacement
o Crack sealing
o Shoulder repair
• Pavement Management - Pavement management is currently handled by the County
under the County Engineering Interlocal. The attached draft 6-Year Residential Street
Plan vWas developed by the County. I recommend that we detete this effort under the
County Engineering Interlocal for 2005 and hire an in-house engineer to develop and
oversee this program. No additional funds will be required.
• Concurrency - Currently the City reviews projects for transportation concurrency on a
project-by-project basis. If a project fails the concurrency review and the project permit
cannot be conditioned to accomplish concurrency, the project cannot be issued a permit.
The 2005 budget has an allocation of $40,000 for funding an impact fee study. Staff is
interested in obtaining initial feedback from Council about further examining the
prospects for a Traffic Impact Fee system or other appropriate system to replace the
current project-by-project traffic analysis methodology for concurrency. Should the
Council desire more specifc data, staff recommends hiring a cflnsultant to guide the City
in the discussion and decision regarding implementation of a revised process. Although
there is currently $40,004 in the 2005 budget, I recommend that we increase this by an
additional $35,000 to cover the cost of the first phase of this extensive study process.
• Sewer Paveback - The Sherwood Forest Sewer Basin scheduled for construction in
2005 is curbed with 36' to 50' wide roadways that will result in oniy partial replacement of
the roadway (trench patching). We currently have an alternate bid included in this
project that will show the additional cost to replace the entire roadway. This project is
scheduled far a bid opening on April 5~'. This bid should provide the information we
need fo estimate paveback costs for 2006-2010 projects. The other sewer basin
projects to be constructed in the 2005 construction season have narrower roads that will
be repaved to their current width with a few exceptions. The exceptions to the full width
pavement replacement are listed below by sewer basin. Alternate bid items for full width
paving will be included in the bids for each project.
o Orchard Avenue Sewer Basin - Park Road (Bridgeport to Liberty) 38' width
o Edgerton Sewer Basin - Park Road (Trent to Utah) 38' width and Dora Road
(Trent to Mansfield) 40' width
o Parks Road - Bradley (Mission to Cataldo) 30' width and Nora (Park to End) 40'
width

il'iSRC - I{requentlv A.sked ()ue.sfions - Impact Fees
~J
1. What are impact fees?
Impact fees are charges assessed against newly-developing property that attempt to
recover the cost incurred by a local government in providing the public facilities
required to serve the new development.
2. Who pays impact fees?
The developer of a proposed development pzys the impact fee, although the developer
will, as a practical matter, pass the costs of these fees onto the purchases of the
developed property. The local government examines the proposed development,
determines whaC facilities will be reauired to sustaln the desired Ievel of service, and
charges the developer a fee to cover a portion of the cost of the needed system
improvements.
3. Must a city charge impact fees?
No. Impact fees are strictly optional. 7he Growth Management Act requires that cities
plan for future growth and provide the facilities necessary For accommodating that
growth. Impact fees provide another tivay for cikies and counties Co pay for these
facilities. 4. What means are available to Washington cities to insure that developers
install and/or pay for public facilities necessitated by new development?
Washfngton municipalities impose development fees and exactions upon developers as
a means of insuring the provision of public facilities necessitated by new development.
7he Growth h1anagement Act authorizes those cities and counties that are planning
under the Act to charge impact fees (RCW 82.02.050 -.090).
In addition, the following statutes provide authorization to impose development fees or
to otherwise pay for the public facilities needed to accommodate growth:
• Subdivision Exactions-Ch. 58.17 RCW
• Water/Sewer Connection Fees-RCW 35.92.025
• Water/Sewer Latecomer Fees-RCW 35.91.020
• Street Latecomer Fees-Ch. 35.72 RCW
• Local Improvement Districts-Chs. 35.43 - 35.56 RCW and Ch. 35A.43 RCW
• 5tate Environmental Policy Act (Mitigation Measures)-Ch. 43.21C RCW
5. What options are availabte to Washington cities for imposing traffic impact
fees on new development?
Washington cities have a variety of options available for irnposing traffic Impact fees
on ne+v development. The following statutes provide the authorization to impose traffic
impact fees: Slate Environmental Policy Act (Mitigation Measures)-Ch. 43.21C RCW Voluntary
Agreements-RCW 82.02.020 Transportation BenePit District Act-RCW 35.21.225 and

REGIUNAL PAVEMENT CUT POLiCY
Febru:uy I 4, 2(kQ,1;
TNTRQDiJCTIC7N
The local gavernme.ntal entities within Spokane Counh+ are faced with the same challenges as many nther
muniCipaIilies 1:hrUUgliout the counuy. Pavement cuts are a necessary operation and cannot be avoided.
Utilities need to serve new customers ancl repair existine facilities. There is a comrnon good for all
utilities to be placed in the 1'ublic Right of 1~1~ay. i\II parties sliall s[rive t:o rcduce the burden to the
taxpayer/ratepayer, ancl dainaDe to the roadways.
Studics conclucied by multiple grou>>s and organizations have determined that poorly restored pavement
cuts cause permanent seructural and functiom3i clama~e increasing maintenance costs, future reha}~ilitation
costs, and produce a rougli ride. If realized, the increasecf costs ancl rough ride iire a burden for the
~ taxpayer/ratepayer.
As F..ahihit A on page eighf shows: the pavement beyond the trench may be weakened by sagging which
results f'rom Ioss of laieral support. Meavy consti-uction traffic also wea)cens the are.a adjacent to the
trench. Studies (see attached bibliograJahy) have showm that the. pave•ment life may be reduced by
pavement cuts. F'anrly constructed patches tend not to Iast through the life of the existing roM and fail
prernaturely when the•re is a lack of good construction techniques «sed when bacl:filling and compacting.
1'his causes an ad(litional burden to rnaintenancc departmcnts and taxpaYcrs/ratepayers. A poorly
constructed pavement cut usually reyuires repair before the road needs to be resurfaced; problems
rypically appe.al• in the first two years. Studies also reveal that patch areas probAbly requiir. tliicker
overlays compared to the rest of the pavrement in the area. This also results in higher costs to the
iaxpayer/ratepayer.
EXECUTIVE SUMM.A11Y
'l'his document Outlines Spokaune CUUnty and the City af Spokane's joint regional polic), regardint
pavement cuts. It addressss excavation problems, constr•uction re.quiremenis, warranties and other relaced
aspects. 1n addition, it modifies the five year new pavement eut moriitorium, creating a new regional
three-year cut moratnrium as outlined in this agreement and exhibit 13 tier chart. Any road will remain
available tn be cut if there is no other rneans to take care of an cmerDency situation (broken water, sewer
or gas lines or as approvect by the Agency Engineer). The utility shall attempt to use other in111ovaiive
ideas for servicine customers other than cutting into the publie R.ight: oTWay while not diminishing safety
5tandards. .
