AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Update on the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
Program.
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: Community Development Block Grant Program.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Spokane Valley has approved the submittal of
construction projects for consideration as part of the Spokane County Consortium, administered
by Spokane County.
BACKGROUND: On May 24, 2004 the Spokane County Housing & Community Development
Department held a meeting with representatives of the small cities to discuss 2006 funding
allocations. Tim Crowley noted that Spokane County was originally included as an urban
entitlement County only as a result of the designation of sole source aquifer and the direct
intercession of Rep. Tom Foley. Information concerning allocations to municipal jurisdictions
distributed at the meeting is attached. No information was provided for the unincorporated area.
The HOME allocations for housing are separate entitlements which use different formulae, and
were not presented.
Spokane County receives CDBG funding based on Formula A while the funding formula for
entitlement cities is the greater of Formula A or Formula B, reduced as necessary for all
entitlement jurisdictions to avoid exceeding the amount of congressional appropriation..
Using a hypothetical based on the 2005 allocation, Spokane Valley would receive $530,000
under Formula A and $335,000 under Formula B. The latter estimate was prepared by the
Department of Housing & Urban Development. The $530,000 was developed using the formula
by Spokane County staff. Preliminary estimates in the $700 -$800K range were developed by
City staff based only on cities of similar size and composition within the state. A similar estimate
prepared by Spokane County and regional DHUD staff was similar, but was based on 2000
Census population numbers, rather than 2004.
The 2006 CDBG appropriation has -not been established at this time, although the expectation is
that the amount will not exceed the 2005 total, and may be reduced. The allocation of HOME
funds will likely follow the decision on the options shown.
The three options outlined in the material describe the possible altematives affecting City.
OPTION 1: The City would defer entitlement status and remain a part of the consortium.
The City could not opt out during the three year period 2006 -2009. CDBG administration
for the Consortium would continue.
OPTION 2: The City elects.entitlement status and would be required to prepare its own
Consolidated Plan. Funding would not be available until the Plan had been approved by
DHUD. The City would assume responsibility for program administration. The City
could opt in to the Consortium, but entitlement funding would be returned to the State. It

is not clear whether this would apply to funds for the remaining three year period, or just
the year when the City opted in.
OPTION 3: The City elects entitlement status but enters into a pass- through agreement
with the County. The City would be bound by the agreement for the program period.
The City would be required to develop a Consolidated Plan.
The City has not yet received formal notification of entitlement eligibility, nor an official estimate
of the funding that would be available as an entitlement City.
The County has approved a Consolidated Plan which presently includes Spokane Valley as part
of the Consortium. Under either Option 2 or Option 3 it will be necessary for the County to
amend the Plan and for the City to develop its own Plan. The Consolidated Plan establishes
funding priorities. Under the hypothetical case, the amount of funding would be established
under Formula A.
As an entitlement city the City would have more control over the funds it received as a result of
the development of a Consolidated Plan, but at the same time would be responsible for
administrative functions presently shared with other members of the Consortium.
OPTIONS: Provide staff with direction on the City's continued participation on the Spokane
County CDBG Consortium for the 2006 -2008 fiscal period.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Provide Staff with direction.
BUDGET /FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Specified.

Dear Senator/Representative (last name):
As you begin the appropriations process, this letter urges you to provide level funding for t
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program within the U.S. De t he
of H
and Urban Development (HUD) at $4.7 billion in FY06 with no less than $43 50 billion noosing
formula funding to CDBG grantees. '
As you know, for more than thirty years, the CDBG program has been a critical source of
support to states and localities, helping them tackle their most serious community develo me
challenges, including affordable housing, infrastructure, public services and economic
nt
development. In 2004, over 95 percent of CDBG fiends went to activities principally
low- and moderate- income persons. In 2004 alone, CDBG helped rehabilitate p y 1 ng
rental housing units and helped create or retain more than 90,000 jobs. Because sc of CDBG 0
funded assistance, more than 11,000 low - and moderate - income families became new
homeowners in 2004. Millions ofAmericans have benetitted from public improvements an
public services provides with CDBG funds. In my community, the program has d

Talk about how the program works in your community. Please feel free to add other at you
examples. Congressional members want to know how the program is benefitting their
constituents.[
Congress expressed strong bipartisan support for CDBG recently by adding language in the
conference agreement of the FY06 Budget Resolution to restore funding to CDBG. The FY06
Budget Resolution increased Function 450, the function within which CDBG falls in the budg
by $1.5 billion specifically to "maintain economic and community development programs uc
as CDBG at 2005 levels." We urge you to support this recommendation and provide level such
funding of $4.7 billion for CDBG in FY06, with no less than $4.350 billi
formula funding to CDBG grantees. on provided in direct

1. Spokane County receives funding based on the formula -A originally established
for allocating CDBG funds. The formula has only three variables — population
weighted at 25 percent, poverty weighted at 50 percent and overcrowding
weighted at 25 percent.
2. Under the second formula -B with the variables growth lag weighted at 20
percent, poverty weighted at 30 percent, and housing built before 1940 weighted
50 percent. Under the dual - formula system, grants are determined for each
entitlement jurisdiction by both formulas.
3. The entitlement jurisdiction automatically receives funds from the formula that
generates the higher amount. This amount is then reduced by a pro rata
reduction to ensure that the combination of the highest formula amounts does
not exceed the amount appropriated.
4. With each amival CDBG entitlement, a maximum of 20 percent is allowable for
eligible administration and planning activities. The County makes available 10
percent of the maximum available administration for planning activities through
its annual funding process.
5. A maximum of 15 percent of each year's allocation is allowed for human service
activities. For every dollar available for human service activities the Department
receives three to four dollars in requests for funding.

OPTIONS
"The President's budget for Fiscal Year 2006 does not include funding for the CDBG
program. Rather, under the presidents budget proposal, CDBG would be one of 18
programs consolidated into the Strengthening America's Communities Initiative at the
Department of Commerce."
• Spokane County will retain its urban county status regardless of the option decided on by
the City of Spokane Valley. However, the actual amount of CDBG funds will be
determined based on each city and town's participation in the consortium.
• On April 29, the Department provided notification to eleven of the cities and towns
regarding Urban County Qualification process. Notification to the Spokane Valley was
delayed until HUD could confirm that Spokane Valley is statistically eligible for CDBG
in FY06. Additionally, it was imperative that HUD provided Spokane Valley with an
estimate of CDBG funding that could be expected using US Census Bureau data used in
formulating grant amounts. Without the official notification of entitlement status and a
proximate grant amount, the process would have been unfair to Spokane Valley in
meeting the timeliness contained in the instructions.
• On May 17 the Board of County Commissioners of Spokane County adopted the
County's 2005 -2009 Consolidated Plan and Annual Plan of investments for 2005. HUD
will have 45 clays to review and issue a determination regarding approval.
Option 1: Spokane Valley chooses to defer entitlement status and chooses to continue
participation in the Urban County Entitlement. Spokane Valley executes an inter -local
Cooperation Agreement with the County. The County is responsible for all aspects of
administering the program. All cities and towns remain in the Urban County Entitlement for the
three -year period.
Option 2: Spokane Valley chooses to accept entitlement status, and opt out of the Urban County
Entitlement. The City assumes full administrative responsibility for meeting program
requirements. Before funding is available the City will be required to subrnit its Consolidated
Plan to HUD for approval. This option triggers a substantial amendment to the County's
Consolidated Plan requiring the County to resubmit the plan to the public and HUD. Spokane
Valley cannot opt-in-during the three -year period. .,
Option 3: Spokane Valley and the County negotiate a "pass- through" using a Joint Agreement
with the County. The City will be responsible for submitting a partial Consolidated Plan to the
County covering such items as housing and non- housing needs, market conditions, citizen
participation, and strategies. The County retains some or all program administration
responsibilities for the City. Both the City and County are bound by the Joint - Agreement for the
Urban Qualification period.

Re: Spokane County Comprehensive Plan Update
11707 E Sprague Ave Suite 106 • Spokane Valley WA 99206
509.921.1000 • Fax: 509.921.1008 • cityhall @spokanevalley.org
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 implementation to the County for consideration during the update
process.
A significant issue that is being discussed is related to population allocation on a
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 year 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 growth 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 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.
City staff has attended four 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. A meeting of the Steering
Committee of Elected Officials (SCEO) will be scheduled during June or July to
review the implications of the higher population numbers and proposals for
expansion of the UGA boundaries.
City staff will continue to monitor the County's process and provide Council with
updates as they become available.

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Local Agency Agreement and Federal Aid Project Prospectus with the
Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) for Argonne Road Overlay Project.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: 1) Approval of Six Year Transportation Improvement
Plan, which includes the Argonne Road Overlay Project, 2) approval of application for federal
grant funding for the Argonne Road Overlay Project.
BACKGROUND: Public Works recently applied for and received from SRTC a $274,000 grant
for the rehabilitation of Argonne Road between Indiana Avenue and Montgomery Avenue. This
project was originally planned for construction in 2003. Due to the delay in the federal call for
projects the Argonne Road Overlay Project will be constructed during the 2005 construction
season. This project will improve 0.21 miles of roadway by grinding and overlaying the road
with 2 inches of asphalt concrete pavement.
To begin the design phase, the City must enter into a Local Agency Agreement with the
WSDOT. A Local Agency Agreement is a standard WSDOT agreement required on all projects
where federal funds are received. Once the agreement is executed Preliminary Engineering
(PE) funds can be released for the design phase of the project.
Attached is a copy of the Local Agency Agreement and Project Prospectus that must be signed
by a city official and returned to the WSDOT for processing and approval.
OPTIONS: 1) Approve agreement, 2) reject agreement, or 3) provide additional direction to
staff.
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Place item on the June le consent agenda
authorizing the City Manager or designee to execute the Local Agency Agreements (for each
phase of the project as needed) and Project Prospectus for the Argonne Road Rehabilitation
project.
BUDGET /FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The local match funds of $42,600 will come from the 2005
Street Capital Projects Fund budget. The total estimated project cost is $316,600:

densities of more than one house per acre," signed by approximately 52 residents of the Greenacres

prior to adoption hold a public hearing, or within sixty (60) days of adoption, hold a public hearing on the
proposed moratorium; and
WHEREAS, the moratorium shall not be effective for longer than six (6) months but may be
effective for up to one (1) year if a work plan is developed by the City; and

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.
Thank you,

RE: 11/18/04 Planning Commission Meeting
Greenacres Rezone /Moratorium
The Planning Commission voted to bring the Greenacres areawide rezone back
on the table for reconsideration at their November 18, 2004 meeting. After •
lengthy discussion, the Commission voted 4 -3 to recommend approval of the
rezone from UR -7* to UR -3.5. (The October 14, 2004, vote on a motion to
approve the rezone resulted in a 3 -3 tie.) City Council will be briefed on this item
on November 30, 2004.
Community Development Staff proceeded to brief the Commission on the
proposed moratorium for the Greenacres area. Staff informed the Commission
that the issue was scheduled for discussion and consideration on December 9,
2004, and that public comment would be accepted at that time.
The Planning Commission asked if the issue could be considered immediately.
Staff informed the Commission that moratoriums do not require a public hearing
to be adopted and that they could discuss and make a recommendation on the
reqeust. Staff also mentioned that interested Greenacres residents were told that
they there would be opportunity to comment on December 9'
After discussion, the Commission voted unanimously to approve a motion to
recommend denial of the requested moratorium. The Commission did not find an
immediate threat to the public and did not believe the issue needed to be
extended to December 9'

IX. COMMISSION BUSINESS
A. OLD BUSINESS: •
Continued Public Hearing on Comprehensive Plan Amendment No.
CPA- 07 -04.
This hearing was continued by motion on October 14, 2004. Mr. Kuhta
directed the Commission's attention to a memorandum written by Sandra
Raskell, P.E., dated November 12, 2004. In it, Ms. Raskell explained that
the City of Spokane Valley Public Works Department received three
copies of the Applicants' Traffic impact Analysis for Mansfield Avenue
Corridor Assessment and Lawson Property on November 10. The City's
Public Works Department requested that the public hearing for CPA -07-
04 be tabled until January 13, 2005 to allow staff sufficient time to review
and comment on the study.
Conunissioner Carroll requested a copy of the study to review before the
public hearing on January 13. Mr. Kuhta explained that the entire
document may not be available, but he would endeavor to make an
executive summary available to all Commissioners in the near future.
Commissioner Gothmann moved that the Planning Commission
continue the public hearing on Comprehensive Plan Amendment No.
CPA -07 -04 to January 13, 2005. Motion was seconded by
Commissioner Robertson. Motion passed unanimously.
Greenacres Area -Wide Rezone Application No. REZ- 17 -04.
Before moving on to New Business, Chairman Gothmann requested time
to discuss what happened at the public hearing on October 14, 2004, for
the Greenacres Area -Wide Rezone Application No REZ- 1 7 -04. Several
Commissioners expressed dissatisfaction with the tied vote, which resulted
in moving the matter to City Council without a recommendation from the
Planning Commission. After reviewing "Robert's Rules of Order",
Commissioner Gothmann concluded that the Commission could reopen
the matter For further discussion if a motion is made to reconsider the
original motion. A Motion to R.econsider can be made at the same
meeting or at the next meeting if nothing has been done on the motion
itself since the last meeting, and a Commissioner on the winning side
(Commissioners Crosby, Can•oIl and Blum) or one who did not vote but is
well - versed on the matter (Commissioner Kogle) must make the Motion to
Reconsider.
It was moved by Commissioner Kogle that the original request for a
Greenacres Area -Wide Rezone, Application No. REZ- 17 -04, be
reconsidered by the Planning Commission. Commissioner Gothmann
seconded the motion. Commissioners .Beaulac, Carroll, Crosby,
Gothmann and Kogle voted in favor of the motion. Commissioner Blinn
voted in opposition of the motion. Commissioner Robertson abstained
. from the vote. Motion carried 5 -1.
Staff provided the Commissioners copies of handouts from two previous
meetings in which the Greenacres Area -Wide Rezone request was heard.
There was a discussion among Commissioners regarding the responsibility
of a government agency to honor original zoning designations which were
intended for 'development in residential areas equally to the zoning
requests of residents who wish to limit development in their residential
areas. Commissioner Carroll is greatly concerned that if out City does not
respect past decisions or is not consistent in its land use decisions,
businesses or other investors may not feel confident enough in our
government to commit to long term development plans. Commissioners
were reminded that City procedures exist which allow landowners to
rezone their property if they choose to do so.
It was proved by Commissioner Carroll, and seconded by Commissioner
Crosby, that the Planning Commission amend the original motion to
approve the Greenacres Area -Wide Rezone request as presented by
exempting the areas on the map colored in pink, orange and blue -gray.
Commissioners Blum, Carroll, and Crosby voted in favor of the
amended motion. Commissioners Beaulac, Gothmann, Kogle and
Robertson voted in opposition of the amended motion. Motion failed 4-
3.
Commissioner Crosby moved that the Planning Commission amend the
original motion to approve the Greenacres Area -Wide Rezone request as
presented by excluding the area west of Flora and north of Mission and
the areas on the map colored pink, orange and blue- „ray. The amended
motion was seconded by Commissioner Carroll. Commissioners Carroll
and Crosby voted in favor of the amended motion. Commissioners
Beaulac, Blum, Gothmann, Kogle and .Robertson voted in opposition of
the amended motion. Motion failed 5-2.
Chairman Gothmann called for a vote on the original motion for the
Planning Commission to approve the Greenacres Area -Wide Rezone
Application No. REZ- 17 -04, as presented. Commissioners Beaulac,
Gothmann, Kogle and Robertson voted in favor of the original motion.
Commissioners Blum, Crosby and Carroll voted in opposition of the
original motion. Motion passed 4 -3.
The Planning Commission will additionally request that the Council
consider a recommendation to allow those landowners in the pink areas
of the map be exempted from paying the City's rezone application . fee if
they choose to return to the UR -7* Zonin designation within the next
two years.
Mr. Cary Driskell spoke to the legality of the recommendation for a fee
exemption, stating that he would advise against it because it could be
construed as a "gift of a fund” by the City to the landowners involved.
The Commissioners took a ten - minute break from 7:40 — 7:50 p.m.
B. NEW BUSINESS:
Greenacres Area Petition Requesting a Moratorium on New
Development.
The City Clerk received a request for a temporary moratorium on new
development in the North Greenacres area on August 10, 2004. The
request was delivered to the City in the form of a petition signed by area
residents. City Council has requested that the Planning Commission
review the request and forward a recommendation to them. The •
moratorium request is scheduled to be discussed by the Commission on
December 9, 2004. Moratoriums are enacted when there is an immediate
threat to the general public's health, safety and welfare. The Commission
must decide if current zoning within the North Greenacres area threatens
4
the public's health, safety or welfare and make specific findings reflecting
these threats.
The Commission discussed the staff report and the issues involved in this
request. Mr. Kuhta explained that Mr. Driskell was present to answer any
legal questions the Commission might have on this issue.
Commissioner Crosby proved that the Planning Commission recommend
denial of the moratorium petition to City Council. Mr. Crosby's Motion
was seconded by Commissioner .Blum. Motion passed unanimously.
The Commission agreed that it may want to revisit this moratorium
request if the City Council doesn't agree with its recommendations on the
Greenacres Area -Wide Rezone request.
.Election of Planning Commission Officers — 2005.
Mr. McCormick agreed to facilitate the nominations for Commission
Chair. Commissioner Robertson nominated Commissioner Gothmann for
the office of Chairman. There was a brief discussion about this
nomination because officer positions are limited to two consecutive terms
and several Commissioners understood that M.r. Gothmann had served his
two terms. Commissioner Blum nominated Commissioner Crosby for the
office of Chairman.
Commissioner Gothmann received three votes from Commissioners
Beaulac, Gothmann and Robertson. Commissioner Crosby received four
votes from Commissioners Blum, Carroll, Crosby and Kogle. As a result
of majority vote, Commissioner Crosby will serve as Planning
Commission Chairnurn, effective January .1, 2005 through December 3.1,
2005.
Chairman Gothmann facilitated the nominations for Commission Vice
Chair. Commissioner Beaulac nominated Commissioner Carroll for the
office of Vice Chairman. Commissioner Gothmann nominated
Commissioner Robertson for the office of Vice Chairman.
Commissioner Carroll received five votes from Commissioners Beaulac,
Blum, Carroll, Crosby and Kogle. Commissioner Robertson abstained
from voting, and received one vote from Commissioner Gothmann. As a
result of majority vote, Commissioner Carroll will serve as Planning.
Commission Vice Chair, effective January 1, 2005 through December
31, 2005.
Commissioners Gothmann and Robertson were commended on their work
as officers of the Planning Commission for the past two terms.
O
Deputy Mayor Richard Munson addressed the Commission with regard to
a meeting he had attended earlier in the morning. Eastern Washington
University has estimated a 5.3% growth in sales tax revenue for all areas
of Spokane County except the City of Spokane. He jokingly told Mayor
Jim West that the Valley had abandoned its efforts to annex the City of
Spokane when they heard that zero growth in sales tax revenues were
projected for them.
Discussion of Planning Commission Rules of Procedure.
This matter was placed on the agenda because of the tie vote at the last
Commission meeting regarding the Grccnacres Area -Wide Rezone
request. The tie vote enabled a public request to be forwarded to City
Council without a recommendation from the Planning Commission. After
a brief discussion, the Commission agreed that this will seldom occur. if
it does, the Chair has the option to extend discussion after the vote instead
of ending Commission deliberations without closure.
X. FOR THE GOOD OF THE ORDER
There were no matters to discuss.
XI. AI)J 0 ITRNMENT
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 8:30 p.rn.

Debi Alley, Administrat' y ssistant illiam H. othmann, Chairman

APPROVED:
To the City of Spokane Valley City Council & Planning Dept.
We ,the undersigned ,are the resident landowners and primary stakeholders
of North Greenacres Community whose boundaries were defined in 1993 as
follows: North and West Boundary is the Spokane River and the South
Boundary is Mission Avenue and the East Boundary is Barker Road. The
Simpson Subdivison in the southeast corner is excluded. The owner
occupied plats represents the primary stakeholders who are committed to
preserving the traditions, customs and culture and economic stability of our
neighborhood.
WE ARE PETITIONING FOR A TEMPORARY MORATORIUM AGAINST
DEVELOPMENT OF DENSITIES OF MORE THAN ONE HOUSE PER ACRE
UNTIL INTERIM ZONING IS ADOPTED. WE ARE ASKING FOR A ZONE
CHANGE THAT ACCOMODATES THE RECENT RIGHTS WE HAD UNDER SR -1.
We the undersigned agree that this is an old established neighborhood dating
back,;_14(:years, sharing a common culture. The keeping of larger lot sizes,
gardens ;I all orchards, animals, and some truck farming characterize the
historical foundations of this local area. Approximately 85% of parcels are
single family residences occupied by owners. We have a tradition of larger
parcels with over 5O° Utthese parcels being larger than 1 acre as pursuant
to a study done in 1994 by Spokane County.:..
We are committed to the process of writing a Neighborhood Plan for
adoption into the Comprehensive Plan
Furthermore, we are concerned due to the near proximity of the river,
that our health and safety will be compromised without a moratorium.
THE ABILITY TO BRING SEWER PIPE OR PROPOSALS FOR NEW WASTE
MANAGEMENT FACILITIES DOES NOT MEET GMA CONCURRENCY.
UNLESS THE PRESENT WASTE MANAGEMENT FACILITY HAS THE
CAPACITY TO EFFECTIVELY TREAT ALL THE ADDITIONAL EFFLUENT
FROM BOTH CITY AND COUNTY NEW DEVELOPMENTS, IT POSES A
PUBLIC SAFETY HAZARD. (The danger as posed by the recent accident provokes
serious thought. This issue , by overwhelming evidence must be solved.)
WE are also seeking adoption of a resolution for establishing policy that
mitigates impacts that effect traditions, culture, and customs, economic
stability, and quality of life. (i.e. horse keeping and a PUD side by side)

CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY
Request for Council Action
Meeting Date: June 7, 2005 City Manager Sign -off:
Item: Check all that apply: ❑ consent ❑ 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
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Presentation by legal staff in January, 2005;
presentation by legal staff May 10, 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 powers, how they are
initiated, and limitations on the exercise of the authority. These materials are being provided
again to Council as an update.
Staff provided the information again in early May, and revised its statement regarding the ability
to adopt one of the powers and not the other. Council asked staff to prepare the resolutions and
ordinances that would be required to adopt the powers or power. Those documents are
attached, and are drafted so that the Council can choose to move forward with either of the
powers individually, or both powers collectively.
If the Council wants to proceed with one or both the powers, the process under RCW is to adopt
a resolution declaring its intention to provide for one or both of the powers. The City must
publish this resolution in a newspaper of general circulation within the City not more than ten
days after passage of the resolution. The citizens then have an opportunity to file a referendum
to try to block this action by the Council, but only if done within 90 days of publication. If no
legally sufficient referendum petition is filed, then the Council must enact an ordinance formally
adopting the power of initiative or referendum, or both. If a sufficient referendum petition is filed
to try to block the action, then it would be submitted for vote by the citizens. Please note, once
the process is started by adoption of the resolution, it must be completed by adoption of
an ordinance.
The Council also asked if the powers of initiative or referendum could be used to either impose
a tax, or to remove a tax imposed by the Council. Generally speaking, initiative or referendum
cannot be used to impose or remove a tax. The only exceptions are where a statute authorizing
a tax specifically states it is subject to referendum. The examples I am aware of are:
- RCW 82.14.340, establishing sales tax imposed for criminal justice purposes;
- RCW 35.21.706, relating to imposition or increase of B & 0 tax;
- RCW 82.14.046, relating to the imposition or altering of a tax relating to transit;
- RCW 82.80.090, relating to an optional vehicle license fee or commercial parking tax.
OPTIONS: Do nothing, or choose one of the three options for adoption.

AGENDA ITEM TITLE : Traffic Control /Special Events
GOVERNING LEGISLATION:
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Council has adopted Ordinance No. 64 Adopting
Regulations for Special Events.
BACKGROUND: In the interest of continuous process improvement, administrative staff would
like to discuss the Special Events Ordinance with City Council. Specifically, staff has been
considering whether or not neighborhood block parties, held on City streets, should be
exempted from obtaining a permit and/or providing proof of liability insurance. Staff has had
lively discussions on both sides of this issue. On one hand, it is good to encourage
neighborhood gatherings that foster a sense of community (and the permitting and insurance
requirements may detract from that). On the other hand, Ordinance No. 64 does require
issuance of a Special Events Permit and proof of liability insurance for °use" of City streets and
other public places. Also, Washington Cities Insurance Authority considers block parties to be a
Hazard II Special Event and requests that the user group provide proof of liability insurance to
the City.
OPTIONS: Explore options for changes to Ordinance No. 64 and seek alternatives to insurance
requirements
or
Leave existing ordinance /policies in place.
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: This is the first touch with council on this issue. Staff
seeks Council discussion and direction on this matter.
BUDGET /FINANCIAL IMPACTS: None to current operating budget. WCIA indicates there is a
potential of higher premiums to the City if a claim is brought against the City/WCIA and the user
group does not have liability insurance.

Re: Regional ESRI Site License Agreement
Introduction
History
Overview
11707 E Sprague Ave Suite 106 • Spokane Valley WA 99206
509.921.1000 • Fax: 509.921.1008 • cityhall @spokanevalley.org
The City has been utilizing ArcView GIS software produced by Environmental Systems
Research Institute, Inc. ("ESRI"). The licenses and maintenance for this software have been
purchased through Spokane County.
Recently Spokane County entered into a regional enterprise license agreement with ESRI.
Spokane County has offered to let the City participate in this agreement and has submitted an
interlocal agreement to the City for consideration.
The County had some extra licenses of ArcView that they allowed the Cityto use beginning
in January 2004. The City was only charged maintenance fees for four ArcView licenses at
the cost of $ 1 35.25 per month.
Beginning in 2005, the County entered into a regional enterprise license agreement ( "ELA ")
with ESRI. The County provided a floating Arcinfo license to the City in January and
continued providing the ArcView licenses to the City with the understanding that the City
would participate in the enterprise license agreement.
The ELA consolidates multi jurisdictional ESRI software usage into one over - arching license
that allows all participating jurisdiction to share in the software included in the agreement
with ESRI. Such an agreement allows participating jurisdictions to test and utilize many
different ESRI products without paying upfront acquisition costs.
The license agreement is for five years. The agreement between the City and the County
may be terminated at any time with thirty (30) days notice.
Regional ESRI Enterprise License Agreement
June 7, 2005
Page 2of4
Benefits
The enterprise license agreement provides greater flexibility and expanded product
availability while stabilizing costs. The City can try out any BSI software available from
month -to- month. This capability allows the City to try out ESRI GIS products to determine
if they would be beneficial to the City, without incurring the cost of purchasing the software.
Floating licenses can be utilized to allow City users to share a license. This is beneficial to
employees that are part -time users of GIS software and do not need their own copy of the
software. A floating license allows many users to utilize a software license without the cost
of individual licenses. The ELA also allows employees to utilize ESRI training through
online video and interactive training modules. The training can be viewed an unlimited
number of times in a six -month period. The training sessions are allocated out by the County
according to the cost allocation percentage and the demand. The benefits of the ELA can be
summarized as follows:
■ Greater flexibility
• No software purchase costs
• Allows software experimentation on month -to -month basis
• Included training and user conferences
Financial impact
The total cost for the Spokane County ESRI enterprise license is $195,000 per year. The
County also adds $5,000 per year in administration fees and $16,380 in taxes for a total
annual cost of $216,380. The City's portion of the annual cost is determined the first year
based on the 2004 ESRI maintenance fees the City paid compared to the total fees paid by all
participating agencies. The cost for each year is payable up front so the County charged the
City $2,300 in December 2004 for 2005. In subsequent years the City's portion is calculated
monthly by determining the City's percentage of the normal maintenance fees associated
with the software it is currently using compared to the total maintenance fees of all the
participating entities and applying that percentage to the total annual cost of $216,380. The
City's current cost is $536.60 /month or $6,439.20 annually. These charges are collected
monthly in 2005 so that the 2006 payment can be made by the County in December of 2005.
Table 1 (Below) compares the costs associated with four different scenarios for Spokane
Valley. Floating licenses can be used by any employee with the software and a license
manager installed on the individual's computer. Stand -alone licenses are for one person's
use only. Arclnfo comes in floating licenses only. Primary maintenance is charged on the
first copy of a license and secondary maintenance is charged on subsequent licenses for a
specific type of software.

Regional ESRI Enterprise License Agreement
June 7, 2005
Page 3 of 4
Table 1. Comparative Spokane Valley Costs of ELA GIS Options
If the City desires to continue to utilize ESRI GIS software but does not wish to participate in
' the ELA, it would have to purchase the software and licenses and choose whether to purchase
maintenance. Maintenance ensures that the City receives software updates to maintain
compatibility and provides technical support from ESRI. The costs for the software licenses
and maintenance if the City did not participate in the ELA agreement are presented in Table
2 (Below).
Table 2. City purchase of GIS Software.
If the City purchased its own software it could not try out software on a trial basis nor drop
and add licenses on.an as- needed basis. Table 3 (Below) takes a comparative look at the
costs associated with the ELA versus the costs associated with the City purchasing ESRI GIS
software on its own.
Table 3. Cost Comparison of ELA versus to -House Purchase
Costs are compared at two -year and five -year timeframes. The maintenance fees for the first
year are included in the purchase price if the City purchased the software on its own. The
maintenance fees under the in -house purchase option are less than the annual ELA charge but
it would take many years to nvercomc the initial outlay for the license purchase. The more
software that is acquired the longer the timeframe necessary to catch the ELA cost.
Regional ESRi Enterprise License Agreement
June 7, 2005
Page 4 of 4
The cost calculation in this memorandum for the E:LA assumes that other participating
entities remain static in regard to the number of licenses they are using. If the other agencies
increase their number of ESIZI licenses it will reduce Spokane Valley's proportionate share
and the resultant cost.
Conclusion
I conducted a search for any negative comments associated with the ESR.I enterprise license
and was unable to locate any. The U.S.D.A, the Department of the Interior, the National
Association of Conservation Districts, and many other public entities are utilizing this license
arrangement.
The flexibility and abundance of software available through this enterprise would seem to
make it a worthwhile investment, and the availability to many users in the city that can also
take advantage of training greatly increase the benefits of such an agreement. The City can
withdraw from the agreement at any time with thirty days notice so there does not seem to be
much risk of getting locked into an undesirable agreement.
The options available to the City are:
1. Participate in the Enterprise License Agreement with the County
2. Purchase and maintain own GIS software
3. Operate without any GiS software
It is my recommendation that the City participate in the regional enterprise license
agreement.
Staff has placed this item on the June 14 Consent Agenda for Council consideration.
