April 19, 2005 Joint vleetine Council & Plauning Commission-Notes Page I of2
DRAFT
works in tandem with land use descriptions and policics within the I..and Usc 1--.lemcnt of the Plan. M.r. McCorrnick further stnted that the purpose of taday's meeting is to present an overview af the land use
concepts prior to issuing a Draft P1an, whieh Plan will thcn be the subject af public review ancl hearings.
ti1r. McCorrnick said that the Comprehensive Plan consists di twa major urbiin dccivity centers: the area
around the Fairgrounds, and ttic ccnter of the City around Sprague and University; that tMosc areas were
clesignate.d as rnajor stops along the corridor and are suitable activity centers. He then gave brief descriptions
of the various sections of the City ancl their current designations, such as the northeast portion as traditionall_y
industrial; a brief overvicw of cYisting interirn comp plan rnap lay outs, foUowed by an ovcrview of the basic
LmdErlying principle,s of the new draft plan map, including mention of some of the new category names such
as "office" and "quasi-public."
After a britf discussion of some zoning issues, (hospital or automotive district), which will be implemented
through a series of amendments and new zoning districts, Mr. McCormick went over some of the underlying
principles used in the map cievelupcnent:
I. Creatc a city center widiin the city; which was discussed in the valucs section earlier; this «<ill
require input fi-om community to identify a city center perha~s running frorn Farr R.oacl on the west
to just east of University ancl then from Valleywary clown to 4'.
2. Preserve existing neighborlioods; the majority of the area is still low clensity residential, although
some areas are being examined as higher density residential.
3. Focus rettiil at major cross-roads; shrink t.he areas designated as commercial to more of the major
intersections of arterials, and concentrate regional commercial at major interchanges.
4. Create office designation; the5e are mqstly around the mcdical c;ampus t►rea v-ound the 1•Iosrital and
Yines ftoad, with snme along the Mullan/Argonne Road cauplet.
5. rncourage redevelopment along the strict corridors into offiee/residential development; collaps$ the `
commercial areas into major intersections with the concept not to zone things out of eristenee, but lo
acld incentives t:o develup things like ofiice ancl/or residentiaL (Incentives were described as pcrhaps
allowing additional height, dii'ferent parking requirements, et:c.)
6. Idenlify miX use centers; such as areas around Mirabeau Point wtlich is de.vcloping in that fashion
now, ana thc rirea norkh of Tre.nt from the Spokane River west to the city limits of Millwood.
Discussion then includect the neecf tu clefine a city eenter; getting public feedhack; indueements to
developers; the various map designations; designating the schoots in green on the map; wetlands, critical
::ircas (whic:h will be a separate rndp); plans for gathering public (citizens and businesses) input including
upcoming meetingslopen houseshworkshops; and having a database of all publie comments.
As there was nn fiirther business, the meeting adjourned at 7:25 p.m.

9. Sign Codc Discussion - Marina Sukup
Community Development Director Sukup explained that Council was previously briefed on the progress
of the Sign Committee, thal the Planning Commission held a public hearing, and Council ciiscussed the
proposed ordinance in January, March; and April, and on April S, 2005, Council requested additional
i.nformaCion relative to aclverl-ising copy on private benchcs wiihiri the public righl-of-way, maintenance
ot' directional signs on Appleway, and political signs. Ms. Sukup gave a history of the Apnleway
directional signs, the bench advertising with Sunset Outdoor Advertising, and discusserl Mr. Driskell's
April 18, 2005 "Treatmcnt of political signs" memorandum, along with the "Sea Tac" treatment of
political signs. Discussion then ensued regarding going out for bids for bench advertisers; the treatment
of benches as "oITcial signs;" right-of way obstructions; eoneraetual acgreements lo c;over liability and
other issues; regulating benches; handicapped aacessible benches; followed by furtlier discussion on
Appleway directional signs; ruaintenfuice of those sigiis; traffic control manual requirements; direational

After further discussion on the political sign question, including enforcement of regulations, it was
determined that the City would nnt be in a position to monitor andJor regulate placement of every political
sign, and did not want to adopt regulations that were not enforceable; and therefore Council gave no
eonsensus conc:erning politieal signs. There was Council consensus ta set up contractual arrangements
for the benches; and to procced with the second reading of the ordinance on May 10, 2005. In conclusion;
Mr. vlercier stated that the directiona) signs were treated under the trafFic manual and thcrcfore, our sign
ordinance does not need to address that issue; and as such the management of the sign program on
Appleway is a septirate issue. It was ciecided that the nexc step would be that staff report to Council on

10. Pavement Cut Polic:v - Ncil Kersten, John Huhman, and Marins Sukup
Public Works Dircctor Kersten stated ihat an initial draft of a pavement cut policy with the City of
Spokane and Spokane County, was presented to Council several weel:s ago, and mentianed that thc
County's poliey began approximately one ancl one-half years ago. IVIr. Kersten explainec{ lhat at that
time, we we;re severally short-staffed and lherefore did not participate; and after another yc.ar, the County
completed their policy. Mr. Kersten stated that if Council desires, staff will furiher pursue the history o1'
the policy and report back on which issues changed, and why, to help us cleterrnine if we wanl to make
any changes. He stated that ttie Policy is vague in many areas and needs uni.farm interpretation; the
policy is complex wiCh four tier levels based on the a};e of the streec and five different c;ategorie,s af
strcets. Mr. KersCCn also explained that under the matrix on page ninc, the modified policy is allowed on
minor arterials and collecCor arterials over six years old, and on principal arterials over hvelve years old;
and allows joints at thc centerline of lanc. FIowever, Mr. Kersten suggestect that in keeping with aur
current policy, that all arterials be cut to the lane line and that no cuts be allowed to the cencer of lane,s.
Community DevElopment Uirector Sukup added that implementing such a plan would be data
maintenanee interisive; and keepino abreast of the permitting process would require additional staff, and
the start-up costs to create the database woulcl be difficult to esCimatc_ Discussion then ensued regarding
the dif£culty in calculating permit tees to allow for cost recovery; the number qf staff'we currenNy have

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Agreements for additional city hall space (Suite 103)
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: The city has an existing lease for office space that runs through
March 31, 2010.
BACKGROUND: The city needs additional office space at our existing site. At city council
direction, staff has negotiated for space currently leased to another tenant. We understand the
other tenant, First Federal Securities, has agreed to our latest proposal which will provide an
additional 1,140 square feet of office space for city use. The proposed sub-lease rate would be
equal to the rate we have agreed to pay for our space in other areas of Redwood Plaza.
Since the First Federal Securities sub-lease will expire two years before our existing lease for
other space in the building, we have secured a separate lease for suite 103 beginning in March
of 2008 through the end of our existing lease (3-31-10), so that all our leases will expire at the
same time.
The rental rates, terms and conditions for the two new leases would be the same as our existing
lease.
Staff discussed the potential for city use of suite 103 at the March 8 and March 22 council
meetings.
RECOMMENDATION: A motion to authorize the City Manager to sign the leases is
recommended.
BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The city will pay approximately $18,000 each year for this
additional space. The 2005 city budget includes funds for this purpose.

GOVERNING LEGISLATION: Spokane Valley Municipal Code Article V Signage Standards
Section 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 20, 2004. Mr. David Crosby, Chair of the Committee,
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 proposed amendments on January 25,
2005. The proposed ordinance was advanced to a second reading on March 8, 2005. City
Council reviewed the proposed regulations in Study Sessions on April 5 and 26, 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 Committee met on a regular basis from mid-June through the
~ first week of December, 2004. The meetings were held in the Council Chambers and were
open to the public. Committee deliberations were also posted on the City'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 rnay or may not require a permit. Permanent sign types include
attached or "wall" signs and free-standing signs. Free-standing signs include both "pole" signs
and monument signs. Permanent signs require a permit.
Local government may regulate the time, place and manner of commercial Rspeech°, but may
not control the message.
The Committee has recommended amending provisions which are not inconsistent with the
Interim Comprehensive Plan immediately, including:
• Updated 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:

Re: Sprague Avenue Business Service Signs
As requested t have reviewed tfie
~6 standards in regard to the Sprague
Avenue business service signs located
on Appleway. There are approximately
22 total signs each with space for six
business logos. To the left is a picture
. of a typical sign.
OF& M :
aaNK. ~
' ~ M.
AIL
Each sign has space for six logo panets which is the maximum number of panels allow
by the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices - Miliennium Edition (MUTCD M.E.).
A copy of part 2F-21 pages 1-9 are attached for your reference. Each logo panel is
approximately 24 inches in width and 12 inches in heighG The MUTCD M.E. atlows
logo panels to be a maximum of 24 inches in width and 18 inches in height. Both of
these requirements are ouUined in Section 2F.04.
The MUTCD contains the standards for traffic control devices that regulate, wam, and
guide road users along highways, oounly roads, and city streets. The MUTCD M.E. is
the cument adopted version of the MUTCD legal for use in Washington State. WSDOT
adopied the June 14, 2001 version of the MUTCD M.E. on January 9, 2003. The
MUTCD M.E. and the Washington State modificatans shall be used for the installation
and maintenance of traff~c control devices.
There are some other issues regarding the existing signs that may not meet the above
standards. They are as follows:
• Sedion 2F.01 Eli ibili - The attraction service shall only include facilities whECh
have the primary purpose of providing amusement, historical, cultural, or leisure
activities. Some of the signs do not appear to compiy with this section.
• Section 2F.02 Application - Servioe signs shall display the message GAS,
FOOD, LODGING, CAMPING, or ATTRACTION. The existing signs display the
words SPAGUE AVENUE BUSINESS.
• Sane of the signs appear to be to ciose to the intersections Under Section
2F.09 the guidance document recommends that signs be 300 feet in advance of
the intersection
The onfy change allowed to the existing signs under the standard would be ta increase
the height of the logo from 12 inches to 18 inches. However, as noted above, other
aspects of the signs may be non-confioRning.
The current signs attempt to mimic signs
required by MUTCD. They are difficult
to read and have a tendency to blend
into the background abng the street Because tfiere are minimal changes that .
could occur under the above standards
and possible otfier non-confoRning ~
issues, a better solution may be to
consider creating a section within the
_
sign ordinanoe specficalty for Sprague
business directianal signs on Appleway.
As an example, to the right is a City
directional si9n from Bend. Ore9on that
would fall under this type ordinance. -
This would allow the City to develop a
directional sign standard specific tor the
Sprague Avenue businesses and a
signing policy that addresses the use of - 1`
the signs. ' -

AGENDA ITEM TiTLE: Motion Consideration: Authorization of Permit Specialist FTE
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: N/A
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: April 5, 2005 Study Session
BACKGROUND: Staff has been reviewing the commercial development permit process, with
the intent of improving reliability, consistency and efficiency. The proc,ess spans three divisions
(building, engineering and planning) within two City Departments (Community Development and
Public Works). We started with the building permit application process. Once we finish, we'll
look at the land use functions as well as the construction and inspection processes.
This is a work in progress, but initial evaluation has identified a need for better internal
coordination of the permit applications. This would allow for earlier identification of additional
and/or conflicting needs, which in tum will help development customers reach a conclusion on
their permit applications.
~ Staff is recommending the addition of 1.0 FTE Permit Specialist, and designating one of the
Permit Specialists as a lead to fill the interdepartmental coordination function of the Commercial
Development applications.
At the April 5 meeting, there was Council consensus to include the budget appropriation for this
position in the Budget Amendment, which will be considered at the May 10 meeting.
Our next update to Council on this project is scheduled for June 7, 2005.
OPTIONS: 1) Authorize the addition of 1.0 FTE Permit Specialist; 2) Maintain the status quo
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Move to approve the authorization of 1.0 FTE
Permit Specialist.
BUDGETlFINANCIAL IMPACTS: Estimated impact comes to about $38,000. There are
additional start-up costs for the new position, including computer and furnishings. Sufficient
funding has been included in the proposed budget amendment.

AGENDA ITEM TITLE : City/County Park Facility Cooperative Use Pilot Project
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: N/A
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: April 26, 2005 Council meeting - Memo/lnformation
only
BACKGROUND: The parks and recreation departments for the City of Spokane Valley and
Spokane County have identified a"pilotL project for joint facility use. In this scenario, the County
would utilize the City-owned softball fields for softball leagues. In exchange, the City would use
Camp Caro for summer recreation programs. This is proposed as a"no cost° exchange of
facilities use. Other park facilities, such as picnic shelters, may also be shared.
There are four softball fields in the City (Brown's, Terrace View, Valley Mission, and Edgecliff
parks). The County has requested use of the fields for summer and fall softball leagues. The
Parks and Recreation Department would request use of Camp Caro for basically the same
"season° (May - October) but not necessarily for the same amount of time.
~
~ In Resolution 04-011, the City Council adopted a fee of $25 for the first hour and $15 for each
additional hour. The County fee structure for Camp Caro is $150 per day for adult use and $50
per day for non-profit youth.
The fees indicated above provide a rough gauge of the value. There is some lost opportunity to
the public for informal use of the fields. However, the county softball program does serve the
citizens of Spokane Valley.
In 2003 and 2004, the City allowed use of the fields at no charge and the County performed
their own maintenance, separate from the City contract.
Staff proposes a written letter of agreement with the County for the cooperative use of the
above two facilities for the 2005 season. Relative use, problems, benefits, etc. will be tracked
and evaluated at the end of the season.
OPTIONS: Approve or disapprove. If disapproved, each entity would have the option of paying
the established fees.
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Move to authorize the City Manager or his
designee to negotiate and execute a letter of agreement with Spokane County for
cooperative use of park and recreation facilities.
BUDGETlFINANCIAL IMPACTS: There is no direct expenditure impact. Cost of field
preparation is included in Senske contract at a fixed rate.

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Helmet Safety Update
GOVERNING LEGISLATION:
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Received power point presentation from Spokane
Regional Health District on issues relating to helmet safety. Powerpoint and discussion by staff
with Council June 29, 2004.
BACKGROUND: The Spokane Regional Health District provided the Council with information
on bicycle helmet safery last summer, including a proposed ordinance for the Council to
consider. At the request of Council, staff analyzed the proposed ordinance and discussed it
with the Council on June 29, 2004. Based on that discussion, the Council declined to consider
the ordinance in its then-existing form, and requested that the District address concems raised
by City staff about the proposed ordinancs. Those concems were fonwarded to the District.
The District asserts that this draft ordinance addresses those concerns.
A representative(s) of the District will answer questions about the newly revised proposed
ordinance.
The infraction levels and charges are as follows:
Class 1 - $250 plus costs = $513
Class 2 - $125/257 •
Class 3 - $50/103
Class 4 - $25J52
OPTIONS: Request more information from staff/SRHD; put proposed ordinance on first reading.

Meeting Date: May 10, 2005 City Manager Sign-off:
Item: Check all that apply: ❑ oonsent ❑ old business new business ❑ public hearing
❑ information X admin. report ❑ pending legislation
AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Initiative/referendum by cities in Washington.
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: RCW 35A,11.080, RCW 35.17.240-.360.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Presentation by legal staff in January, 2005.
BACKGROUND: The City Council previously requested information on the exercise of
referendum and initiative power in cities. Legal staff provided a memorandum drafted by former
Legal Intern Joshua Leonard that explained the legal the basis for the po+nrers, how they are
initiated, and limitations on the exercise of the authority. These materials are being provided
again to Council as an update.
Since the memorandum was originally provided to Council, staff has done additional research
into whether the powers of initiative and referendum must be linked such that if one is adopted,
both are adopted. Staff originally stated that they are linked. Staff now understands the two
powers may not necessarily be linked, that it is arguably an open question. This is based on
new information from MIRSC. If the City were to adopt one power, and not the other, an
interested party may challenge the action in Superior Court. The resuiting court decision would
be the first of its kind in Washington on this issue.
OPTIONS: 1. Instruct staff to draft an ordinance adopting initiative AND referendum authority;
2. Instruct staff to draft an ordinance adopting either initiative OR referendum authority;
3. Do nothing.

C~
What are the Powers of
Initiative & Referendum?
These powers represent an attempt to
enlarge the legislative decision-making
role of the general electorate.
In Washington, the two powers are linked so
that any municipality that adopts the power
of initiative also adopts the power of
referendum (and vice-versa).
1
The Difference Between
Initiative & Referendum:
The power of initiative is used to propose
NEW legislation.
The power of referendum is used to
REVIEW legislation already approved by
the city's legislative body.
~
~
INITIATIVE
• Begins with the filing of a petition
consisting of a specified number of
signatures.
• If the number of valid signatures is
deemed sufficient, the proposed ordinance
must either be adopted by the city council
or be submitted to the entire electorate of
the municipality for a vote.
• Only ordinances may be adopted by
initiative. The initiative power is not
available to adopt resolutions or motions.
,
,.2
REFERENDUM
• The referendum process formally begins with
the filing of a petition containing a specified
number of signatures of registered voters.
• The petition must be filed prior to the effective
date of the challenged ordinance (the effective
date must be at least 30 days after passage).
• If the number of signatures is deemed sufficient,
the effectiveness of the challenged ordinance
until either (1) the ordinance is repealed by the
city council, or (2) the ordinance is submitted to
the voters of the city for approval or rejection.
• The power of referendum is only applicable to
ordinances. Resolutions, motions, and other
council actions are not subject to referendum.
~
:
Initiative & Referendum
Sufficiency of Petition:
• RCW 35A.11.100
• The petition must be signed by registered voters in
the city equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the total
number of names of persons listed as registered
voters within the city on the of the last preceding
city general election.
• last preceding city general election = November
2003 general election
registered voters in the City of Spokane Valley.
• J_ valid signatures are required for a petition to be deemed
sufficient.

/
Statutory Authority
Counties
• Only home-rule counties that have adopted charters (King,
Whatcom, Pierce, Snohomish, & Clallam counties) have the
powers of initiative and referendum (if their respective
charters include some provision for the powers).
Cities
• The powers of initiative & referendum are not automatically
included in the powers granted to a first-class city or a non-
charter code city_ State enabling legislation must authorize
the grant of these powers.
• A city may provide for the exercise of the powers by its
citizens, if authorized by enabling legislation.
• Commission cities 8 towns automatically have the powers of
initiative & referendum included in their enabling statutes.
~
Limitations on the Exercise
of Referendum Power
The statute that grants the power of
referendum to code cities includes a list
of types of ordinances that are not
subject to the exercise of referendum
power. .
,
,
4
J
Ordinances that are Statutorily
Exempt from Referendum
The following types of ordinances are exempt from
referendum, and thus are not subject to the thirty-day
waiting period for ordinances:
• Ordinances initiated by petition;
• Emergency ordinances;
• Ordinances providing for local improvement districts;
• Ordinances appropriating money;
• Ordinances providing for (or approving) rollective bargaining;
• Ordinances providing for the compensation of or working conditions of
city employees; and
• Ordinances authorizing or repealing the levy of taxes.
Limitations on the Use
of Initiative & Referendum
• Washington courts have recognized
additional limitations on the use of initiative
& referendum powers.
• 2 tests are used to determine whether an
ordinance is beyond the scope of "direct
legislation" by the people in the form of
initiative or referendum.
,
5
Test #1
• Whether the underlying action is legislative
or administrative in nature.
• If the action is administrative, it is NOT subject to
exercise of the powers of initiative or referendum.
- Actions taken on subjects of a"temporary & special
character" are usually regarded as administrative acts.
- If the action merely pursues an existing policy or plan, the
action is likely administrative.
• If the action is leqislative, it MAY BE subiect to
exercise of the powers of initiative or referendum.
- Actions of a'permanent 8 general character" are usually
determined to be legislative acts.
- If the action prescribes a new policy or plan, the action is
likely legislative.
J
Test #2
• Whether the authority for a particular action
was granted by the legislature to the city
council or the electorate as a whole (a.k.a.,
the "Grant of Authority" test).
• If the authority to undertake a particular action was
granted specifically to the city council, the powers of
initiative and referendum are unavailable.
• If the authority to perform an action was to the
corporate entity (namely the electorate as a whole),
exercise of the powers of initiative and referendum
may be authorized. _
i
6
~
Arguments in Favor of the
Powers of Initiative & Referendum
• Initiative & referendum represent "direct
democracy" at its most fundamental level.
• Initiative & referendum powers:
- neutralize special interest groups,
- curtail corruption,
- provide a means for civic education, and
- put pressure on public officials to act in the public
interest.
~
. ~
Arguments Against the
Powers of Initiative & Referendum
• The powers of initiative & referendum undercut
representative government by removing lawmaking
authority from the hands of elected officials.
• Initiatives and referendums result in unworkable
laws, because they reduce complex issues to a
"yes or no" vote by voters who may not be as well-
informed on the intricacies of the particular issue at
hand as those elected to represent the public as
legislators.
• The powers or initiative & referendum result in
crudely drafted laws that have not been subjected
to the usual compromise-effecting process of "give-
and-take" legislative enactment that is the
trademark of representative democracy.

Memorandum
To: Cary Driskell, Deputy City Attorney; Dave Mercier, City Manager
From: Joshua Leonard, Legal Intem
CC:
Date: December 27, 2004
Re: Initiative and referendum.
:I:. WHAT ARE THE POWERS UF IMTIATIVF ANll :It:EFERENDUM?
These powers represen.t an attempt to enlarge the legislative decision-making role of the
general electorate. The easiest way to differentiate behveen thc powers of initiative and
refcrendum is lhac lhe p4wer of initiative is used to propose new lcgislation, and the power of
reFerendurn is used to review legislation already approved by the city's IegislaUve body. In
Washington, the lwo powers axe linked so that aiiy municipality lhat adopts the power of
initiative als4 adopis the Pnwer of referendum (and vicc-versa).
A. Initiative
The power of inilialive (as it applies to mtuiicipalitics) is the power of the vnters of a city
to dircctly initiate and enacl legislation. The process begins with the filing of a petition
cUneaining a specified nuinber of signatures ihat proposeS an ordinance for adoption by the
municipality. If the number of signatures is cleemed suffcient, the proposcd ordinance must
either be adopted by the city council or submitted to the entire electorate of the mun.icipality for a
vote. Only orclinances may be adopted by initiative. T'he initiative power is not available ta
adopt resolutipns or mofions.
B. Referenclum
The power of referendum in a inunicipality is the righl oF the cikizens to have an
ordinance that has been passed by the city council submilted to the votcrs for their approval or
rejectioii. The process bcgins with the filing of a petition writh a required number of signahires of
~ registered voters prior lo the efYective date of the ordinance' which must be at least 30 daY s after
i
1
passage. If the number of signatures is deemed sufficient, the effectiveness of the ordinance is
suspended until either it is repealeci by the city council or it is submitted to the voters of the city ~
for approval or rejection in an election. 'I'hc power of referendum is only applicablc to
ordinances. Resolutions, motions, and other council actions arc not subject to rcfercndum.
U. STATUTORY AUTHORI.TX
The powers of initiative and referendum are not automatically includcd in the powers
granteci to a (irst-class city or a non-charter code city by statute. The state legislature must grant
these powers in the enabling legislalion pf a firsl-class cicy or a non-charter cocle c:ity. Cities and
to~Nqis .v7th the commission form of government, which are rare (Shelton being the only
Washington city with the commission form of governmcnt), automatically have the powers oi'
initiativc and refcreiidum included in their enabling statutes.
Only home-rule counties that have adopted charters (King, Whatcom, Pierce, Snohomish,
and Clallam counties) have the powers of initiative and referenduin (if tlieir respective charters
include some Provision for the powers). Spolcane County, whieh does not have a eharter, does
not have the p4wers of initiative and referendwn.
A. Authorizing the Exercise of the Powers of Initiative & Referendum
Tlie Revised Code of Washingtnn (RCV) is the source of initiative and refercndum
powers given to first class citics; code cities that have formally aciopte.d the powers, a.nd cities
with the commissiou form of govenunent. For a non-charter codc city; RCW 35A.11.080
authorizes the exercise of the powers 4t' initiative and referendum, i_f the city elects to provide for
the exercise of those powers in the manner provided IIl E7.CW 35A.02.020, 35A.02.025, and
35A.02.030. .
B. Exercising the Powcrs of loitiaHve & 1'teferenduin
The method prescribcd by sialute for exercising the Powers of iniliative and referendum
is as fol(ows:
Fxcept a5 pravided in RCW 35A.11.090, ancl except thal the number of registered
voters needed to sign a petition for initiative or referendtun shall be fiftecn
percent of the total number of names of persons listed as registered voters %<<itlun
the city on the day of the last precedi.ng city general election, the powcrs of
initiative and referendum in noncharter code cities shall bc exercised in the
manner set forth for the commission form of gavernment in RCW 35.17.240
through 35.17.360, as now or hereafter amended.
i
2
~ RCW 35A..11.100. I'hc number of registered voters within Spokane Valley on the day of the
"last preceding city general election" (which was held in Novcmber 2003 1) was . 1'hus,
in orcier lo iniliate the considcration of a legislative reso.lution by the gencral electorate, or in
ordcr to refer an already enacted ordinance to a vote by the general electorate, thc valici
signatures of Spokane Valley registered voters on a petition would be required.
'I'he provisions and requirements of RCW 35.17.240 - 35.17.360, ancl RCW
35A.01.040(4) are discussed below. a
1. RCW 35.17.240
Once a petition for rcfercndum has been filed (and is found sufficient); the legislative
body oF the municipal_ity is required to reconsidcr the ordinance subject to referendum. Upon
reconsidering the nrdinance, the legislativc body ha.s two options: First, the legislative body can
def~eat the ordinance subject to referendum in its entirety; or secnnd, the legislative bociy can
submit the orciinance subject tn referendum to a votc of the people. The operation of an
ordinancc subjcct to referencium must be suspended until either the rcfcrendum petitinn is 1'ound
insufficient, or die ordinancc subject lo referendum is upheld by a majority of vates cast in tlte
rcferendum eleciion.
2. RCW 35.17.250
1 he renuircments thal apply to initiative petitions (e.g., the character, fomi, number of
signatures required, the examination and certification process, and the submission to a popular
votc of the ordinanc;e proposed by the initiative petition) are alsa applicable to rcfcrcndum
pctitions, and to lhe orclinances challenged by referendiun petitions.
3. RCV1V 35.17.260
Ordinances may be initiated (or challenged by refcrendtun) by petition of registerccl
voters of thc city. Pursuant lo RCW 35A.11.100, thE pctition must be signed by registered voters
in the city equal to fifteen percent of the total number of naines of persons listed as registered
voters within the city nn the day of ttie last preceding city general election. Fram this poinl, the
process Por a re.f'erenduan petition found to be sufficienC is eontaineci in KCW 35.17.240,
' Aacordin5 to MRSC, the "last preceding ciry general election" for purposes of RCW 35A.11. 100 would be the
November 2003 election, as city elections occur in odd-numbered years (see 12CW 29A.04.330). lt likely does not
matter that the eity ciid nat xetually have aii election on that date; what is important for puiposes of the statwe is that
r~ this is the date it would have liad an election if it had ineorporatecf earlier than March 2004, and that this is the date
~ certain from wliich the base number of regis/ered vtiters is determined.
~ RCW 35A.01.040(4) replaced R.CW 35.17.280 with regard to code citics.

discussed above. If an initiative petikinn is fnund sufficient, and i f il contains a request that,
unless passed by the legislative bocly of the city, the ordinance be submitted to a vote of the /
registered voters of the city, the legislative bady has two options: First, the legislative body can
pass the proposeci ordinance without alteration within twenfy day5 after the county auditor's
cercif cate of suffliciency was rcceived; or sccond, the legislative body can cause a special
election to bc hcld on the next election date (as provided in RCW 29.13.020) thal occurs no
sooner than forty-f ve days after the election is called, for submission of the proposed ordinance,
without alleration, lo a votc of the people. However, if a generAl electioii will occur within
ninety days, submission of the proposcd ordinancc must be made on the general election ballot,
precluciing the need for a spccial election.
4. RCW 35.17.270
A petitioner preparing an initiative Petition for submission tq the legislative bod}° of a city
must follnw the prpcedures pf RCW 35.21.005, or RCW 35A.01.040 for cUde cities.
5. 12CW 35A.01.040(4)3
Within three days of the f luig of a petition, the officer with 'whom the pctition is filcd
shall transmit the petition to the county auditor. The officer whose duty it is to detErmine the ✓
sufficiency of the petition (ttie county auditor) shall proceed to make such a dctermination evith
reasonable prouiptness.
The county auditor is requireci tq file a cerlif`icate reflecting the petitipn's "temiinal dAte"
with the officer who iiutially received the filed petition. The "terminal datc" is the datc an which
the clelerminalion of sufficiency was begun. Adclitional pages of one or more signatures may be
added to the petilion by t5ling with the appropriate filing ofhcer prior to the tennination date.
My sigr►er of a filcd petition may withdraw his or her si,,nature b_y a written request For
withdrawal filed with the receiving officer prior to the ternunal date.
6. RCW 35.17.290
If the pekition is deemed insuFlit;ienl by the county auditor, nr if the legislative body of
the ciiy refuses to act on a sufficicnt pctition as required by statute; any taxpayer may conunence
an action in the superior court against the city lo obtain a decree vrdering an election to be held
in the city, if the court finds the petition to be sufficient.
. 7. RCW 35.17.300

As to the form of an elcction under the powers Af initiative and referendum, publication
of notice, the election, thc canvass of the returns, and the declaration of the results are to be
conducted in the same way as are other city elections. My number of proposed orciinances c>r
rcferendum items may be voted upon at the same election, but nnly ane speeial election for the
purpose of exercising lhe powers of initiative and referendum may be called during any one six-
month period.
8. xcw 35.17.31.0
The cit}, clerk is required to cause thE ord'uiance or propvsition lhat is to be submitted to
the voters at an election to be published once in eACh of the daily newspapers in the city. 7'his
publication is in addition to the notice required by RCW 29A.36.080.
9. RCW 35.17.330
If the majority of votcs cast in an initiative election favor the proposcd ordinancc, thc
orciinanec bccomes effective immediately and is made a part of the city's record of ordinances. If
the majority of votes cast in a refercndtun election are against repealing the ordinance referred to
the general electorate for a votc, the ordinance becomes effective (pursuant to RCW 35.17.240).
10. RCW 3537.340
Upon the adoption of an ordinance initiated by petition; or the approval of an ordinance
subjcct to referendum (pursuant to RCW 35.17.240), the city clerk shall write on the margin of
the rccord "ordinance by petiCioti No or "ordinance by vote of the people." Such an
ordinance catuiot be repealed or amended except by a vote of the people. The legislative body nf
a city may, hnwever, propose an amEndmcnt by resolution, and cause the prop4sed amenclment
to bc put to a votc of the people.
11. A Note on the Sufficiency of Petitioris
Beforc a petition can initiate the direct consideration of new legislation by the people, or
in order to require already enacted legislacian to be referrcd to a vote of tJte people, the county
auditor must deern a petition to be sufficient. RCW 35A.01.040 contains the sufficicncy
requirements for a petition filed for eiCher initiative or rcfcrenduin ui a code city. Ainong those
requirements arc: (a) format speeific;alions; (b) a prescribed warning statement; (c) tie
rcquirement that a true copy o1.' an ordinance to be initiated or refened be included; (d) ref'erence
to applicable state statute or city ordinance (if any); (e) the format of signatures; and various

The requirement found in RCW 35A.01.040(8) pertains to the time periocl in which a
.
petition must be filed Nvith the city clerk ta be fpnvarded to the county auditor for a
determination of sufficiency. it reads: "Signalures followeci by a date of signing whieh is more
than six months prior to the ciate of filing of the petition shall bc stricken." RCW 35A.01.040(A).
The practical effect of this provision is that a six month time linut on the validity of a signature
begins to toll as of the signing of chat signature. The reference lo the "date of 6]ing" likely
means the date the petition was filed with the city clerk; rather than the "termination date"
previously discusscd.
RCW 35A.01.040 also provides tliat "[p]etitions containing the rcquircd niunber or
sig.natures shall be acc;epted as prima f'aeie valid until their invalidity has been proved." RCW
35n.01.040(5). This provision places the burdcn of prooi' on a party who seeks to have the
petition deeuied insufficient or iiivalid, once the petition is shoAm to contain the requisite number

III. IIIVTITATIONS On' THE USE OF 1NITIATIVE & REFERENI)'UM
Limitations on the excrcise of the powcrs of initiativc and referendum can be found in
statc statutes and also in applicable Gase law.
A. Statutory Limitations on the Gxercisc of Rcfcrcndum Power
The statute that grants the power of referendum to code cities includes a list of types of
ardinances that are not subject to the exercise Uf referendum power. These exempt ordinanccs
are not subject to the th.i.rly-day waiting period for ordinances. '1'he list of exempt ardinajices is
as follows:
1. Qrdinances initialed-by pelilicm;
2. Lrnergency ordinances necessary for the immediate preservaticm of public peace,
health; and safety that contain a statemcnt of urgency anti are passed by a
unanimous vote of the city legislative body;
3. Ordinfuices providin; for local improvement districts;
4. Ordinfuices appropriating money;
5. Ordinances providing for or apprqving collective bargai.ning;
6. Ordinaiices providing for the compensation of or working condilions oF city
employees; or
7. Orciinances authoriiing or repealing the levy of tFixes. '6
RCW 35A.11.090. These types of ordintinces take effect as provided in general law.
B. Other Limitfltic►ns on the Fxercise of the Powers of Initiative and Rcfcrendum
Waslungtnn courts have recoguzed additional limitations on the use of the powers of
initiative and referendum. Courts have employed tulo tests to determine whether au ordinance is
beyonci the seope oF direel legislation by the people in the form of initiative or ref:erenduin. The
first test relates to the form pi' the underlying action. The seconci test relates to whom the grant
of legislativc authority is dirccted.
1. Whether the Underlying Actic►n is I,legislativc or Administrative
If the action is adiniiustrative, it is not subjcct to the powers af initiative and referendum.
If it is legislakive, iti may be subject to initiative and refcrendum (depcnding upon the oulGome of
the second test). The scope of the powers of initiative and referendum is reslricted to ordinances
adopting legislative policy.
There are nwo tests consistently uscd by Washingt4n courts to make the detennination as
to what actions are administrative and what actions arc lcgislative. First, actions relating to
subjects af a permanent and general cliaracter are usually determined to be legislative in nature,
and actions takcn on subiects of a temporary and special character are usually regarded as
\ J -
adiniiustrative in nature. Second, the action is usually legislative in nature if it prescribcs a new
policy or plan; whereas it is administrativc in nature if it merely pursues ttn existing policy or
plan.
Lven with thesc tcsts as guides, the distincCion between legislative matters and
admicustrative mattErs is not always clear. The following is a representakive example of
Washington court cases that address the characterization of actions as either legislative or
administrative:
a. Ruano v. Snellman, 81 Wn.2d 820 (1973) - The selection of a cuntractcrr and nther
actions incident to a building rontract are administrative in nature.
b. Fleicier v. Seattle, 100 Wn.2d 874 (1984) - An amcndmr-nt to a comprebensive
strcet name ordinance is an administrative action, suice it is cnactcd plirsuant to a Plan already
adopted by the legislative bocly.
c. Leornard v. Bothcll, 87 Wn.2d 847 (1976) - f1 site spccific rcznne amendment is an
r-admioistrativc action, as it implements the existing zoning codc or comprehensive plan.
7
d. 13allasiotes v. Gardner, 97 Wn.2d 191 (1982) -'1'he implementaNon of a punch-card ,
balloting systcoi is lcgislative in nacure. - ~
e. Eazle M. Jorgensen Co. v. Seattlc, 99 Wn.2d 861 (1983), and Scott Paper Co. v.
Anacortes, 90 Wn.2d 19 (197$) - 1 he setting of rates is A legislativc act.
f. Durocher v. King Cauntv, 80 `Vn.2d 139 (1972) - The acl of granting an unclstssified
use pcrmit is administrative in nature.
g. Citizens for a Financially iZesponsible Government v. Snokane, 99 Wn.2d 339, 662
P.2d 845 (1983) - Thc enactment of a business and occupation tax is considered legislative in
vature. h. Paget v. Logan , 78 Wn.2d 349, 474 Y.2d 247 (1970) - A decision regarding where
to locate a multipurpose stadium is a legislative act.
2. R'hethcr the Authnrity for a Particulur Actinn was grantcd by the
Legislature to the City Council or to the Electorate as a Whole
If tlie statutory autliority to, undertake a particular actaon was granted specifically to the
city council, ttie powers of initiative and referendum are unable to be e.cercised. I-Iowever, if the
legislativc grant of authority for an action was to the corporate entity, nacnely the electorate as a wholc, direct legislation in the forni of the exercise of the powers of initiative and referendum is
available. The idea behind this distinction is thal where the legislature has expre5sly granted
authority tn the city council, that autharity may not be subject to the Power of the people to enact
or repeal legislation directly through the initiative or refcrcndum process.
The first step in this tesC is to determine if the instimt action is specifically authorized by
the statc lcgislahire. If so, the secand step is to determine to whom that authority is ~,~ranted (be it
to the city counc•il Or the corporate entily). A grant of aulhority specifically ta the city council
precludes cxErcise of the powers of initiative and referendum as to that authority.
As in the first test, above, the dis[inction between authority granted specifically to the city
council and authority granted to the electnrate as a whole may not always be clear. The
following are examples of cascs in which Washington courts havc cYamined specific issues to
detcrmine wtiether the underlying aelion was subject to initialive and referendum based on the
"Grant of .Aulhorily" test:
.
8
~ a. I eArnard v. Bothell, 87 Wn.2d 847 (1976) - A refcrendum challenging a rerone
amendment was not allowed by the court because the city council, not the electorate as a
whole, was granted authority by the legislaturc to adopt and modify the zoning code.
b. State ex rel. Bowen v. KrueQel, 67 Wn.2d 673 (1965) - An orclinance providing for
annexatioii is nut subject to a referendum because tlie powers of annexation were grantcd by
the legislature ta the mayor and city council.
c. Citizens for Fulanciallv Responsible Government v. Spokane, 99 Vdn.2d 339 (1983) -
An orclinance extending a business ancl occupation tax was suhject to a referenduin in a first
class city because neither the state constitution nor the state legislature restrictcd that taxing
power to the city council.
d. State ex r.el. Haws v. Pomerov, 50 Wn.2d 23 (1957) - An ordinance setting utility
rates for a municipality-owned water system (beiug financed by rcvcnue boncls) is not
subject to referendum bccause the atrthority to set utility rates was granted to the city council.
IV. A1.2GUM.ENTS FQR AND AGAINST 7'FIE
POWERS OF I1vITIATIVE AND Rr',:FE1.2TN7)UM
~
Botli sides of the initiativc and referendum argument agree that most actions of
government are best handled by elected represcntatives. Even thase who advocatc widespread
usc of the powers of initialive and referendum agree that such powers are supplemental to the
iiormal legislative proccss.
A. Arguments in Favor of the Powers of Initiativc ancl Referendum
'Chose in favor of the po~vers of initiative and referenduin argue that these gowers
represent "direct democrflcy" at its most fundamental level. Supporters feel that initiative and
re.ferendum powcrs neutralize special interest groups, curtail corruption, provide a means for
civic education, and put pressure on public o_fficials ta aet in the public interest.
B. Arguments against the Powcrs of Initiative and IZeferendum
Critics Uf the powers of initiative ancl referendum argue ihat thcy unclercut representative
government by removing lawrnak:i_ng aulhority from the hands of elected ofTicials. Oppanents
feel that these devices result in unworkable laws, beGause they reduce complEx issucs to a"ycs"
or "no" votc by voters who may not he as well-inforrned on the intricacies of the parlicular issue
at haiid as tihose elecled to represent the public as legislators. Reliance upan the powcrs of
initiative and referendum, argue aciversaries of the powers, results in crudely drafted laws that
9
have not becn subjecled to the usual compromise-effecting process of "give-ancl-take" legislalive
enactment that is the trademark of representative democracy. V. ABANUQNMEN"I" OF INITIATIVE ANll REFEREN:UUM
Although a commission c:ity may not abandon tlie powers of initialive and referendum
(unless the city chanses to another form of government), a kirsl class city or a code city may later
repeal or abandon the powcrs. In a commission city, the powers are built into the commissian
form of govcrrunent by state statute, a.nd no provisinn is ineluded for repeal of the powers. First
class eities cau relinquish or abandon initiative and referendum powers by amending their
charters. `I"he procedure for a cnde city to abandon or repeal initiative and refercndtun powers is
the same as is providcd for abancinnment of government by a code cily. `1"hc procedure is
siunmarized below.
A.. lnitiation of Abanclonment
'1'here are tvvo ways to initiate tlle repeal of iiutiative and referendum powers. The tyrst is
for the city cduncil to pass a re5olution of intention, proposing abandonment of initiative and
referendum pdwers. "I'he secnna is for the citizens to petition for abandonment of the powers.
'I'hc petition must be signed by qualified clectors equal in number to not less lhan ten perccnt of
the votes casl at the last general municipal election. Six years must havc passcd since the
adoption oF the powers of.' initiative and referendum before the proc;ess of abar►donment of these
powers can cotrunence.
B. Cityvvidc Election
Oncc the petition has been found sufficient by the city clerk or the resolution of intention
has been approved by the city council, an election of all city eitizens must be held. The election
should be helci at the neYt general election (if one is schcduled with.i.n 180 clays) or at a specia]
election as provicled in R.CW 29.13.020.
' C. Flection Uutcome
lf a majority of the voters at the election vote to repeal the powers of initiative and
rel'`erendum, they are relinqiushed and no longer availabie.
- VI. CONCI.USION
The powers o.f.' initiative and referendum have been adoptcd for use in several
Washington municipalitics. All ten first-class cities have adoptcd the powers in their respective
~
charters. '1'he powers of initiative and referendum are available to all code cities, but they must "
10
be SpeciFically adoptcd by each city. MoSt af the code cities in Washingtan have never formally
adoptcd thcse powers. Third-class cities and fourth-class towns are not statutnrily authorized to
adopt the powers.
In ciCies where the pnw•ers of initiative and refcrcndum are not available or have not been
specifically adopted for use, a city council may still submit an issue directly to citizens on an
advisory ballot Unlike an initiafive or referendum vote; however, the results of an election on
ari advisory ba.sis are not binding.
Usc of these powers nt "direct democracy" is often the cause of litigation, often over
whether a particular issue is subject t4 these pawers, or to determine whcther the language used
in an initiative or referendum pelition complies with the law. (:ourt determinadons are made on
a case-by-case basis, aftcr cxamining the partieular circumstances of a casc.

RE: Greenacres Moratorium Request
Council Members:
On November 18, 2004, the Spokane Valley Planning Commission considered a
request for a development moratorium in the North Greenacres neighborhood.
The moratorium request was forwarded to the Commission via the City Clerk in
the form of a petition signed by Greenacres residents.
After discussion, the Commission voted unanimously to recommend that the City
Council deny the requested moratorium. The Commission did not find that a
development moratorium was warranted, but did believe that the Greenacres
areawide rezone would address many of the neighborhood's issues.

CC: Date: May 5, 2005
Re: Spokane County Comprehensive Plan Update
Pursuant to the Growth Management Act (GMA) (RCW 36.70A.130(4)), Spokane
County is required to update the County's Comprehensive Plan. This update is
required to be completed on or before December 1, 2006. In order to meet this
GMA deadline, the County has initiated the update process. The County has
requested that all jurisdictions within Spokane County and other interested parties
review the present comprehensive plan and provide comments regarding goals,
policies, maps or imptementation to the County for consideration during the update
process.
~
A significant issue that is being discussed is related to population allocation on a
r
county-wide basis. The Washington State Office of Financial Management (OFM) is
required by state law to provide counties within the state a 20 year population growth
projection. This growth projection comes in the form of a range of expected
population growth. During the County's initial comprehensive planning process, the
Board of County Commissioners (BoCC) adopted a 20 year population growth
projection that was in the mid-range of the OFM population range. The County is now considering increasing the 20 population projection from the mid-
range level to the high end of the OFM population range. The estimated 2005
population for all of Spokane County is 419,566. The 20 year grovrrth projection
being considered is a year 2025 population of 646,634 or a 54% increase over the
20 year planning horizon. The overall result of this new population estimate is that
the existing urban growth area (UGA) would be increased by over 11 square miles
or roughly 1/3 of the size of the City of Spokane Valley.
The increased population estimate will have impacts on local jurisdictions as well as
service providers. For example: Sewer - by increasing the population estimate and
subsequently the UGA boundary, the sewer service plan would likely need to be
updated to reflect the new population estimate. Future facilities would need to be
sized appropriately in anticipation of the increase in population. User fees that are
~ charged would be evaluated and set at a level to cover the capital, operation and
maintenance costs of the facilities. If this level of growth does not occur, the overall
fee structure would have to be evaluated and increased fees would be likely have to "
take place to cover the additional infrastructure costs. Other service providers would also be affected such as school districts, water providers, fire districts, etc. all of
whom have capital plans that are impacted, to a greater or lesser extent, by an
increase in population allocation.
Counry staff requests that comments and suggested revisions be provided to the
County by May 20, 2005. City staff has attended three meetings with County staff
and staff from other jurisdictions in the County to discuss the update process and
more specifically the issues of population allocation and UGA boundaries. City staff
will continue to monitor the County's process and provide Council with updates as
appropriate. •
