Item: Check all that apply: consent ❑ old business X new business ❑ public hearing
❑ information - admin. report ❑ pending legislation
AGENDA ITEM TITLE : City Funding Options
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: State Law
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: The city cfluncil has reviewed city financial forecasts
and is aware that action is needed to avoid deficits in future years. There are four significant
projectslprograms that need funding. The council has been supportive of these
projects/programs but a plan is needed to provide funding before we move ahead.
BACKGROUND: The four most pressing needs are:
0
A. City hall construction estimated at $18 million
B. City center improvements including open space, land, plazas, streets, and developer
incentives roughly estimated at $10 million . .
C. Street maintenance estimated at $2 million each year
D. Pavement management program to protect the city's capital investment in streets,
estimated at $4 million each year
While no one funding source is likely to provide all the funding, we need to begin assembling •
smaller funding sources to assist us in accomplishing city goals_ . If we do not have new funding
• sources in place soon we will need to begin reducing our service levels to balance our budget.
A 2008 council goal is "Formulate a Six-Year Strategic Financial Plan by July 2008 that
forecasts expected revenues and expenses : ...................that institute sustainable budget-
.balancing approaches and itemizes necessarv service reductions or revenue increases or
combinations thereof.°
~
i
~
• Agenaa Item 4a
At the councillstaff retreat on January 12 there was discussion regarding:
A. Setting aside $800,000 each year for paying the costs of building a new city hall
B. A voter approved bond sale for city center improvements with an increase in property
taxes to retire the bonds
C. A vehicle license fee of $20/year to be used for street maintenance
D. Preparation of a funding plan to pay for the pavement management program
OPTIONS: 1.) Direct staff to proceed with items A, B, C and D as outlined; 2.) Direct staff to
. abandon A, B, C and D and look for ways to cut service levels; 3) Some combination of 1) and
. 2).
BUDGETlFINANCIAL IMPACTS: Projections of revenues and expenditures over the next six
years indicate additional funding sources must be found or seniice levels reduced.

AGENDA ITEM TITLE : Senske Park Maintenance Contract Amendment GOVERNING LEGISLATION: N/A .
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN:
BACKGROUND: - In 2005, the City contracted with Senske Lawn and Tree Care for park maintenance and
maintenance of the Centennial Trail for a total annual cost of $608,681.21. This was a one year
initial agreernent with four one year renewal options. In 2006, the contract was renewed at the
same total annual cost of $608,681.21. In 2007, the contract was renewed with an increase of
2%, which brought the total annual cost up to $620,854.83.
~ The 2008 renewal of the Park Maintenance Contract was offered to Senske at the same total
annual cost of $620,854.83. Senske has countered with an offer of a 2% increase in cost. This
would resuft in an increase of $12,417.10 to the annual contract, bringing the total contract
amount to $633,271.93. The breakdown would be $609,544.56 towards park maintenance and
$23,727.37 towards Centennial Trail maintenance. .
As per the contract, cost changes must be justified and mutually agreed to by the City and the .
Contractor (Senske). Based on a Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase of at least 2% for the
preceding 12 months and satisfactory performance by Senske in meeting the objectives of the
contract, staff feels the request is both justified and mutually agreeable.

To: City Council; David Mercier, City Manager
From: Mike Jacksan, Deputy City Manager
Date: January 10,.2008
Re: 2008 Park Maintenance Contract
In 2005, the City contracted with Senske Lawn and Tree Cai-e for park maintenance and
inaintenance nf the Centennial Trail for a total annual cost of $608,681.21. This was a
one year initial aareeinent witli four one year renewxl options. In 2006, the contract was
renewed at the sarrie total annual cost of $608,681.21. In 2007, lhe contract was renewed
with an increase of 2%, which brnught the total-annual cost up to $620,854.83.
1 he 2008 renewal of thc Park Maintenance Contract was affered to Senske at the same
total annual cost of .$620,$54.$3. Senske has countered lA7th an offer of a 2% increase in ,
cost. This would result in an increase of S 12,417.10 to the annual contract, bringing the
total contract amoimt to $633,271.93. The breakdpwn would be $609,544.56 lowards
park maintenance and $23,72737 towards Centennial Trail maintenance.
The contract stipulates 1:hat "Cost changes in future years, if any, must be justified and .
mutually agreed to by the City and the Contractor." Senske listed several reasons for the
requestcd increasc for 2008 including a 20% increase in sununer st~, significancly
higher fucl prices, sigiiificantly higher fertilizer prices and increases in disposal charges.
l3ased on a Cousumer Price Index (Cpl) increase of at least 2% for the preceding 12
months, coupled with the satisfactory service provided by Senske, staff recommends
approval of a 2% increase for 2008, effective January 1, 2008.
Please note:
1. REfcrcnce to the CPI is for comparison only. There is no contractual reference
, to the CPI in the City/Senskc agrecment and there is no bui.lt in mechanism for
increa.sing the contract cost.
The 2008 budget ineluties funds in the Parks and Recreation Services and Chargcs Flccount to
cover the total cost of the contract wluch would bc $633;271.93.
Please let me know if you have quEStions or would like additional information.

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Old Senior Center Building Demolition
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: N/A • PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Council previously authorized staff to obtain a
detailed engineering report on the condition of the Valley Mission Senior Center Building at
11423 E. Mission Ave.; Staff presented results of the engineering reports at the January 8, 2008
Study Session and Council approved placing a motion on the January 15, 2008 consent agenda
for the demolition of the building.
~ BACKGROUND: The old Valley Mission senior center facility at 11423 E. Mission Ave. was
vacated in September 2005 when the Spokane Valley. Senior Citizen program was moved to
CenterPlace. The building has been empty since that time. The Valley Mission facility is
approximately 12,000 square feet and was opened in 1976. The facility is located within Valley
Mission Park. -
The engineering firm of Thomas, Dean & Hoskins, Inc. (TD&H) together with the geotechnical
firm of GeoEngineers evaluated the Old Senior Center building and parking area. The work
included a structural evaluation of the building itself along with a soils evaluation around the
building foundation and parking lot.
In conclusion, the engineer states, "The cost to repair and make improvements in the old
building is approximately $1.7 million, which is comparable to that of a new building at $1.3
million. The refurbished existing building would have a shorter useful life and higher operating
costs." , OPTIONS: Demolish or remodel the existing building.
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Motion to authorize the demolition of the old senior
center building at 11423 E. 11llission Ave.

Deputy CiCy Manager Jackson asked if theee were any suggestions for any clianges to the gonls, and
Mayror Munson asked Deputy Mayor Denenny to give an update on the wastewater treahnent plant issue.
Deputy M3yor I7enenny explai.ned that he vvill give Council an update in Marcli, but briefly stated that dle
Environmental Protcclion Agency (EPA) has some criticism about die ageeement, and there is some
disagreement vnnng the attorneys and consultants regarding the direction EPA gave them in letters; that
the criticism was not specified in the diseharge allocations, which was part of the Vlemoraiidum nf
Understanding (MOin, and he stated that the Sierra Club and others miglit file suit regarding that
agreement; that the Department Af Fcologry (UOE) controls and issues evcrything in this State and has
delegated authority from the FPA; and that the EPA might not allow what the 170E agreed tn, and if suit
occurs, it would go through the Ninth Cirouit, and we would be out of die winciow of capacity or beyond
that window of having enough capacity to allow building, which could result in a thrust to put the
discharge out on dhe Slatese. Mayor Munson said he discussed this issue with Governor Gregoire, that
the Govenlor is aware of the pr4blem, and that he tolcl her that this could result in issuing a building _
moratorium if xhis is not resolved. There were no suggested changes for 1:his goal.
Goal #2: Refitie initinl depurln2ental six year business Plans in order to identify and irrcorporate fiscal
irnppcts inta a strategic finuncial plan. Deputy City ManaDcr Jackson exPlained that one of the infents of this 2007 Business Plan is to more
closety align the Plan wi[h the Budget and the Strategic Plan; that Council needs to eYaniine funding
possibilities to fund those stated goals, and he added that the numbcr of customer service improvements
actually eYCeed what are stated in tliE plan. There were no suggested changes for this goal.

Community Development Director McClung said that the nesC skeps are public meetings for February,
including the ConsultanYs presentation of Baok 3 for ['cbruary 19, which will be t4 Council and the
Planning Commission. Ms. hicCluna stated that a SEPA Deterinination has been issued on the City
Center portion of the plan, zind we should have estimatcs on in&astructure cost soan. Publie Works
Di.rector Kersten said that he and Gladding Jackson are working on those estimates, and should have
some number5 wit6in the next few weeks, buC he estimates the cost in the hvclve Co fourteen million
dollar range, and said that costs will cover streets, underground water and power, sewer, and lanclscaping
down diat part of the Center; and that the City Center street by itself is about $3 million; he added that the
numbers will include frontages but nnt the actua) ungrade of the whnle streets or new intcrchanges. Mr.
Kersten also stated that the library is obligated to build their half of the street, and that there are some
minor strcets which could be built by a developer. City ACtorney Connelly remarked that the condition of
purchase and sale is the raad extending south to the library which has to be built, and there is no
indication as to who or how thal will be accomplished; that they have had contacts from at leasl one
devcloper coneerning the city, and are 6nally getting dovni to costs, and said he anticipates the nert
month or rivo will bc productive. iVlr. Kersten stated that we don't have to use all $12 million to satisfy
the library; and Mr. Connelly responded that we can start with the idea that the cfeveloper will build the
streets. The issue of turning Sprabue and Appleway back to hvQ-ways was broached, arid Mr. Kersten • said that Glatting Jackson is working on that and should have some figures in the next few weeks and will
consoliclate ehat into another report. Mr. Kersten also mentioncd we will have a list of all potential
projects that it will take to haWe the City Center Projeet; and said some developers are interested who
want to look at the project in the next few weeks, after which time Mr. Kersten said hc shoulcl know if
those developers are genuinely interested. Mr. Connelly also mentioneci t.hat any developers meeting wich
Mr. Munson should include Mr. Uenenny as well, and he (vfr. Cnnnelly) sent Couneil'a memo on what

that they are putting tpgether a sehedule for the next "batch" of comp plan change reyuests, which are
from eleven individual preperty oNvuers. In response to Mayoe Munson's question about Council nrotocol
on how to address comp plan changes, it was mentioned that Mr. McCormick will be giving Council a
report on lhis at the ne?ct councit meeting, and will subsequently give quarterly upctates. Councilmember

DRAFT
~ Develapment Department recently awarded Spokane County, Spokane, Spokanc Valley, Liberty Lake,
tlinvay 1•Ieights, ancl the Town of iMilhwood a grant that aUows the County and affected cities to move
forward with coordinatecl planning for the metro urban growth area; and this meeting should be of
assistance a,s there is a(ot of work to do so we know the process on taking in a neighborhood that may
want to be annexed. City Attorney Connelly said that our eYisting comp plan does noC identify any urban
growth areas (UGAs) as future growth areas for the City of Spokane Valley; and such needs to be
incluclecl in oiu• Plan; that we intentionally did not include that in the first plan as we have to have the
comp plan basis for movina forward; and once we agrec on Chose areas, we can move fonvard.
Councilmember Taylor said that would be a;reat topic for the first quarter comp plan issues; ajid Mr.
Connelly replied that these should be in conjunction with a joi.nt pla.nning presentation, and that we can
move this issue piirallel with the comp plan process. Mayor Munson mentioned that provided Nve follow
the County Wide Planning Policies on joint planning, we can annex; and Mr. Connelly added that Nve just
need to do our par[ ta identify future growfh areas for Spol:ane valley. It was then mentioned that pcrhaps
Gnal #S is completed and perha-ps should be re-worded. Ms. McClung suggested re-wording to read,
"Complete the annual comp plan updatc" or to simply leave the goal as stated, noting that it is complete.
[t was suggested to continue to improve the area-wide zoning proposals and include identifying the
specific areas f.or annexation; or perhaps eombine goal S and 6; and it was subsequently mentioned by Mr.
Connelly that the UGA is the planning tool, and anriexHtinn is the regulatiori that implements it.
Councilmember Taylor said that before the end of this year, everythiiig the City needs to do needs to be in
place to aecomplish this Goal #5) goal.
For oal #fi, Councilmember '1'aylor suggested chaiiging it to read; "Adopt all neccssary amnexation
policies and perform the analysis of land owricr and city-initiated requests for annexation." NVhen vls.
McClung asked if Council wants analysis, cost, and proccdure, Councilmember Taylor responded that if a
O member of dhe public asks to be annexed, we need to know the cosc for upgrading roads. Ms. McClung
replied that i.n her previouS experience, approximately five years ago it cost $150,000 for a consultant to
get together that inforniation, not to mention a great deal of staff work. Mr. Connelly added that a
financial analysis, which prececles an annexation analysis, would be sevcral hundred thousand dollars to
determine if there are suffcient tax revEnues Ca justify it. Councilmember Taylor responded that perliaps
we don'e need a full financial analysis on evcry possible annexation, but as they come; to which
Councilmember Godimann addcd that there needs to be a process that is timely for owncr-initiated
annesations, and some people are inquiring already. Mr. Connelly explained that we have to havc those
future growth areas ide►itifed. lleputy City Mana;er Jackson said that according to thc minutes of the
last• June retreat, "iVfi-. Merciei• mentione(l the idea of performing an analysis for annexation as there will
be a need to have our annexation operational policies sharpened as some potential areas are developing on
our peripherals." Further comments were that part of developing this ;oal wauld bc a Cinancial analysis;
that we need a process when determining UGAs, that it is easier tq annex vaca.nt land lhan cleveloped
land; that any s.reas ws want to annex, whether already developcd or to be developctt, needs to be up to
our city standards; and that we should include the bencft of looking at anncxations prior to clevelopment.
There was nothing definitive statetl regarding changing this goal.

crdclilional reg-trlutoty protectioiz for ►vaters of stale►vicle significance; i. e., Spokane River, Shelley Lake.
Community Development DirectAr McGung explained that this Shoreline Master Peogram must be
updatect by 2013; and when this goal was first developed, there was some state funding available, but
such funding did not materialize. Ms. McClung said staff will put together a plan for how to get the
program completed and processed by the de_adline, but that lhis is not something they will bc working on
this year, which prompled Deputy Mayor Denenny to inquire if this perhaps should not be an 08 goal.
Mr. Connelly stated that if the County changes their program, we havc a choics to stay with theirs or have
"our own; and that previously we hacl a draft shoreline ordinance before fhe Plaiining Commis.sion which
former Community Dcvelopment .Director Marina Sukup had completcd; but the DOE said it wasn't

going ro oceur; that there were specifias in the orciinance that DOE was not comfortable with and they put
it as a low priority; adding that many thought we were a lot closer then we ended up being. After Further
brief discussion, there was courrcil con.sensus to delete this as ari 08 goal and put tlris on the agenda in six
moriths to caisitler as aa 2009 goal.
2. Pronosed 2009 Council Goals - Mike .Tackson
Deputy City Manager Jackson ex.plained that diis is a type of brainstorming session to discuss possible
2009 goals.
There tivas council consenscis ta wail until June to decide whether to inclucle the S6torelirre 1llaster
Frogrant as cz 2009 goal.
laiscussion ensued regarding the possibility of kceping the monitoring of cvastewater issues goal as a 2009
goal, and Deputy Vlayor Taenenny explained some of tlie pressing issues as discussed previously and
noted above, but no decision was made to have this considered a 2009 goal.
Councilmember Taylor talked about having funcling for the City Center as a possible goal. That led to
further financial discussion including inention of the possibility of having multiple bonding issues on an
upcoming ballot.
Mayor Munson asked about developing an audit for vitrious contracts Nve have. Discussion on this topic
inclucled mcntion that the Sheriff s Office would be the top contract audit priority-; whether lo have a
performance and/or a financial Sheri.ffi's Officc audit; the idea of examining oCher options for law .
enforcement anci wnethe.r that s}iould be a stated 2009 goal; Deputy Mayor Denenny's mention nf the
nced for fui analysis of our "Iargest financial obligation" and that we can't examine alternatives widivut an audit involving the cost factor; disagreement from Councilmember Gothmann that the purpose of an
audit is to see if our administraCive division is meeting its goals; with lleputy Mayor Dcnenny's counter- response that a performance audit is to look at control mechanisms, and we can't do that if we can'l
eontrol any changes. That prompted an additional response from Councilmember Gothmann that we
already have control over such xhings as asking foe re-assigning of patrol offieers in nccded areas, that we
can discuss those nceds with the S1leriff; but Councilmember Taylor dis.agreed and said those are issues
dealt with by thc City Manager and not something Council dcals with. Mr. Gothmann disagreed ancl
stated that wc havc not set goals for our police, such as do we want more pr lcss craffic enforcemettt; and
that those are policies we can set and turn pver to the Sheriff's Office; that our role is to identify areas to
re-:issign or add officers, and to make policy decisions to best serve our citiZens. Iviayor Muuson statecl
' that in e4anioins the contracl issue with the Sheeiff's Office, there was a"water linc" and some things
werc not negotisble, and some things were not deFined. Councilmember Taylor asked Mr. Koudelka whac
is alloweci within lhe contract, and are there changes the City is looking to mal:e now after five years,
such as something to change to give us more control and more autonomy?
Administrative Analyst Koudelka cxplaineci that it becanie evident this pasC yea.r when wc had to select a
new police chief, that there were some shortcomings as to ow perspectivre as how that process takes place;
that at one point we had worked to come up caith a new law enforcement agreement that incorporated a
lot of die model language of mosC of our othcr contracts already adopted by Council, and that we reached
a point where we had a good clraft ready for review hy Sheriff Sterk, who resigned beCore the end of his
term, and that process was put on hold; and at this point, Mr. Koudell:a-explained, we are trying to work
through some building issues and get a bettcr understanding of what our costs are and get more specifics;
and that all that would hclp us to understand if we are getting an efticient delivery of services, which
Would help us to move forward to discuss options. For this yca.r, Mr. K_oudelka stated, there was a i-~
meeting set for next week widi Marshall and one of the undershcriffs, Mr. Koudelka, and Mr. Connelly,
which meeting was postponed due to Mr. Vlercier's unexpected absence due to the death in his family;
Council Retreat Minutcs: 01-12-2003 Page 4 of 11

DRAI± C
and that said meeting will have to be re-schedulecf. Mr. Koudelka stated that when such meeting does
occur, thcy should know where dley stancl regarding some unresolved building issues; and said thaC staff
plans to pull together all the items in the old contract that were deficient; and ta get input from Council as
well as identify some new items or revisions to the eristing agreement, then movre forward to implement a
model agrcement that will address all our needs. As an aside, Mr. Jackson said R!Ir. Koucielka tivill
perform the performance audit of the Sherifrs Office.
Mr. Koudelka also mentioned that Councilmember Gothmann seemed to be aclciressing a perforrnance
measurement, but that the business plan hopes to incorporate that anti bring law enforcemcnt into the
business plan giving the oppnrtunity to have goals; anci acfded that a performarice audil: would look at the
efficiency of cfelivering that seivice, such as getting data of crime analysis on how quickly law
enfarcement responds, how many units, etc. or to sce if perhaps dhere is a bettcr way to use time; staffing '
sehedules and levels sufficient to address call timcs woulcf also be esamined; and he stated that Nve don't
have a developed system or procedure for perfornlance audits; but are warking on identifying what steps
are needed to dp so. Poliee Chief VanLeuven menkioned that some of that ctatti is now available and is
included in his mondlly report he submits as part of the Couricil paeket; and the data is analyzed by
supcrvisors who rnanage the pcrfbrmance of addressina Cttose "hot spots."
Councilmember Taylor remarked that the previously mentioried "water line" needs to bc diseussed,
whethcr 1:hat includes the need for more r 1'E's, or switching officers fi-om one nlace tn another; and a
diseussion on xvtiether thaC flexibility shpuld exist; t;hat so far dhere have been nn contractual changes, 3nd
we need to see what headway wc ean mal:e, that a lot of C.his came to a head but the City backed awav
from some qf the more controversial issues so we could gEt a new police chief. Councilmember
Gotlimann mentioned that hc feels it strange to focus so much on personnel issues and not on the area df
O enforcemeot, ta which Mr. Taylor replied that the area of enforcement is direcdy i.mpacted by the leve) of
autonomy noted in the contract. Couricilmember Gothmann said he wants to focus on pcrformance issues,
and that the SherifPs Office shnuld bring altcrna[ives to us. Deputy Mayror Denenny said he wants to
st,ut the proce„ss for our own.department and Would like that as a goal; and Councilmember Schimmels
said if we can`t come to a contract abreement, our duty is to talk to Mr. Mercier and/or Nlr. Jackson; and
that we need to do a nerformance audit which will direct the financial picture and move from there to
a(tematives. Mr. Koudelka explaine.d thal one of the work goals is to develop an audit plan for all
c4titracts, and to have that designed to ensure eonsistency in our method of verifying costs we are
eharged; and that concerning law enforcement, we are in the pracess of working wit:h the County to come
up wit}i a method to more accurately determine costs, which will then be brought Fonward to Council later
th is year.
Mayror Munson saicl for 2009 alternatives, we should hsve current cnsts to mal:e comparisons; and vtr.
Koudelka erplainecl that the County lias a consultant to develop a cost plan for the Sheriffls Officc and
for direct costs such as telephone, yet he added that a let of the support costs come to us in a Simplex
i1iet}iod, so there is a nccd for a greater in-depth eomparison. Councilmember Gotlimann said he would
like lo have Cauncil ask the f'olice Chief Co bring a plan for policing the city, and to present diat along
with atternatives to Council; that such repoi-t has never been done, and he Feels that is wrong but is
something that Sheriff K.nezovich said he would clo. Mayor Munson said he sees no rGason why Nve can't
ask for that this year, and Deputy Mayor Denenny agreed, as well as to acidress those issucs previously
mentioned. Mayor Munson asked if a 2009 goal should be to develop a cost model for law enforcement
and Councilmember Taylor said he feels it prernature For Council to state specific goals until staff has had
that discussion with the Shcrift's Office, «fiich meecing was mentioned previously Uy V1r. Koudelka, aiad
he added that we don't want to send a misleading message that we are no longer cortfident with our
,r--~ current contract. Deputy Mayor Denenny said he fcels we neecl to havc a law enforcetnent analysis and
cost out the alternatives; and that this should be discussed in June. Councilmember `I'aylor concurred that
this should be postponed until the suminer agcnda; as did Vlayor Munson. Councilmember Tayl'or then

suggested the optien of inerely poscponing this issue until we can get a report from staff on how thc
contrac;tual negotiations are coming, as part of this issue centers on performance and part is governance; ;
and that it rehirns to the autonomy issues which -vvere not resolved before. Councilmember Wilhite also subgested putting this on lhe agenda for June to examine how in-depth Council may want to have this as a
2009 goal. Vlayor Munson saicl hc feels this issue will take several rneetings to resolve, and
- Councilmember Gothmann said we need to iclentify what it is we arc contracting, and what are our goals
for the community regarding law enfoecement, that we need to identify those goals before considering
alternatives. There iras cventual corrsensus to put this as an upcoming study sessivn agenda item, and
that Folice Clriej VunLeziven and Mr. rLfercier could give Coxincil a list of wJurt Co:oicil has control over,
ai1d of suggested areas ar gouls for lmv enfarcernent to achieve, and that dhis is separate from the
cqntractual baseti issues which will come back later.
To recap, Mr. Jackson stated that possible 2009 goals inelude continuinD thc monitoring oP wastewater
issues, the police department, and securing funding sources for the City Center. Mr. Thompson said it is
his perception from speaking with Mr. Mercier on this topic, that we need to move forwarci with ►najor
decisions for securing tiunding sources for the City Center by July 2008, and s-aicl if we don't get f.nancino
started soon, we will lose ground. Councilmember Taylor said that rather than the suggested 2009 goa) of
securing Punding sources fnr the City Center, that perht►ps a better 2009 goal to add during the June retreat
would be to furtlier refine 2008 Goal number 4. Brief discussion continued regarding using the private
sector contractually for other public worl:s issues; dhat Mr. Kersten said the only area left is snow removal
which would be very diffeult and extremely expensivE to do ourselves, but that he could eYplore that
option at Council direction. Mayor Munson suggested keeping these issues in mind for possible goals to
discuss rit L'he June retreat. • '
There was a brief break in the meeting at 9:30 a.m., and the meeting reconvened at 9:50 a.m. _

3. Financial Forecast - Ken Thomnson -
Finance Director Thompson explaincd that the purpose of this item is to bring Council an update on
projections for revenues and expenditures in the general fund and otFier areas such as the street fund, but
he said it would not include the stormwater fund as they have a fixed income source which flows through
the County. In looking at areas we lrack, he explained, general, street, and capital Pund, there will always
be more projects then we have money for; and we ean spread those prnjects over a sia-year period. Mr.
Thompson then hiohlightcd tlie packet document "Significajrt f'oints" under general fund, strcet fund, and
"capital. Mr. Thompson mcntioned that in the general fund, there are no, funds for the City Center; and
also in the general fund, he mentioned that addirional Uansfcrs to die Civic FacilitiES I'und will lessen the
facilities' need in futtare years; and that the bottom line is, iFwe keep putting funds aside we can probably
handle that; and if we dan't put tunds aside, we v,rill have an approYimate S6 rnillion prnblem; that we
need to get startcd and he Wroulct like direction from Couneil to keep putting Funcls aside for.the next fve
years. The Street Fund nee.ds an adciiCional $2 million a year for maintenance, and Mr. Thompson
reminded Council that we no longer move funds from the general Pund to the street fund. Finance
Director Thompson said regar<ling Capital, the 2008 figures look pretty gootl, but beyaid that there arc
too many variables to make a good funding prediction.
Mr. Thompson said the General Fund Sheets with tlie "B" on the eop include the business plan, and the
ones without the "B" clo not; that property laxes ttave gone up mostly due to increases in assessed value;
but Gambling tax has decreased by several hundred thousand, and he feels that perhaps banning s►noking
in the c,asinos makes it difficult for them to keep customers; or perhaps people simply prefer the larger
gambling establishments. Mr. Thompson said that the general fund is not as a big concem now as the
deficit rnove_s around we should be in good shape for another three or four years; and added that every
year we budget a half-million dollars for a contingency; that we typically don't spend it so that gives that
that much more eaeh year to apply to the defeit in future years.
Council Retreat Niinutes: 01-12-2003 Page 6 af 11

llfLAFT
0 Conceming the S#reet fund, Mr. Thompson said there is perhaps one more year before we are out of
funds; and we can't wait another year tn address this prnblem as it will take sis months tn a year to get
annther fiinding source; that a decision needs to be made by June or July of this year for a funding source.
~1~1r. Thompson added it will take anproximately $6.5 million to fund the Strect MasterPlan; that the gas
tax is a fixecl number per gallon rat:her than a percentage, anci as the price of gasoline inereases, people
drive less. Vir. Thompson said it is difficult to predict what will happen to the future price of fuel.
Finance llirector Thompson also mentioned that Capital includes such tliings as parks projects, the
University Park, swimming pool, and the recently added funds for the art work on the bridge, and that he
anticipates dhere could be a future desire to appropriate more funds for art in the City Center; and that we
need to pul' aside ftinds to get started on the ADA Plan; and that the pavement management program
added another approsimate $4 million. Concerning the Transportation Improvemcnt Program (TIP),
I'ublic 1'Jorks Director Kersten explained dhat the figures show our match, and dhis assumes we wil) get
what we appliecl for, whieh Iikely won'c be the case for all projects. Finance Direetor Thnmpson said the-
real estate excise tax (R.EE7') generates about $2.2 rnillion annually; that it cannot be used for road
maintenance, but if a street were uiken out and replaced, or a street needed a grind or overlay, Nve could
use R-EE'I' funds, but we cannot use any RrET moiicy on the strcet fund itself. Public Works Director
Kersten said tt►at in Problem Scatemenl #2 etpenttiture line item of $4 million, that is what he spends on
sh-eet maintenance now like snow removal; aiid just in street maintenance there will be an approximatc
$2.5 million shorCfall beginning 2010; ancl that the capital bottom line pavement management program
shows the dollars we need to maintain good conditions of our existing strcets and cloes not inelucle £br
extimple, changing a ltivo-lane road into a four-lane road; vid to maintain wfiere we are today, we would
have to fund $4 million now, which still won't kecp up entirely hut would allow for some roacl
~ cleterioration. This iCem ended with brief discussion on the rate of taxes coming in and the slow down of
buildings.
4. Six-Xear Diisiness -Plan -1Vl.ike J9ckson
L7eputy City Manager Jackson said this is an opportunity for a quick look at various portions of the 2008
Business Plan, and to align funding sources with the business plan; that some things on the pending list
have already come forward; that there has been overall cu.stomer service improvement; that a challenge is
to try to align the Plan more closcly with funding and to have the Strategic Plan work together with the
Six-Ycar Business Plan; thaC the Business Plan is Council's direction to stnff and staffls best atternpt to
lonk at programs and services they feel ineet council's and the community's expectaCions. NIr. Jackson
said thaC. staff doesn't always weigh exactly what is feasible as they try to make Council aware oF other
things available in other coinmunities similar in size with ours. Vir. Jackson eYplained that staff Iooks
forward to develnpiog the next business plan, aid is looking at recommendations that are feasible in
• keeping witli funding items. 2egarding tlie Public Works clepartment, iMr. Jackson mentioned fimding
options will need to be exarnined for city hall, street maintenance, city center; and as noted on page 26;
they want to look al the process to see if Council wants to change the way we are appmaching the plan, as
any chaoges will need to be addressed prior to development of the 2008 and 2009 business plan; that we
want to develop a mission statement for each dePartment, ancl in cases widi multiple divisions withiri
deparhnents, there may be multiple mission statements. iVfr. Jacl:son said that staffworks hard ta identify
the realm of their program, and he feels it is important that Council reviews those pages. He pointed out
the detailed goal list on page 23, and said there are the projects which will drive discussian on possible
funding sources. f'age 30 was highlighted by Mr. Jackson, and he said it shows all areas previously
approved by Council, and that the programs will continue once implemented. Mr. Jacl:son also
recornmended Council review the appendi:Y for updated versions of some of these fgures. Deputy City
Manager Jackson saicl that these recommendations are all incorporated into aod arc fully fiinded in our 2008 budget, Nvhich has all heen previously authorized by Council. We reminded Council that some "big
tickeY" items are not included, sueh as funding for City Hall, the Street- MzsterPlan, and City Center, and
Council Retreat Minutcs: 01-12-2008 Page 7 of 11

DRAFT
recomiiiended Council review the updated financial chAri just after pagc 40; and said that Council will
w2nt to discuss possible funding options to implement the 2009 plan and to further refine the plan to the ,
pqint of recommending achievable programs and projeCts. Mr. Jackson also mentioned that these issues
cao easily be incomprated into a study session.
In :Further rcview arld discussion of the materials after page 40, those in the "Attachment to Business
1?la.n," Councilmember Gothmann mentioned page 17 and at the top of page 25 to perhaps cxamine what
affeet an "Edgeclift Neighborhood Centee' would have on scnior services, and how it might affect our City's senior program. Mr. Jackson mentioned that the Senior I'rogram is run out of the CenterPlace, but
is not run by the Ciry and the City does not provide the senior programs as that is provided by the Senior
Association liotued at CenterPlace. Councilmcmbcr Gothmann remarked that perhaps this would be an
opportunity to coardinate aU senior activities, and perhaps have the City offcr some prAgrams at
rdgeclift; that he spoke with Ian Robertson out at the H[J13 where they have some representatives from
otiher senior associations starting a recreation progrun there at no charge. Somc mernbers Af Council
agreed that it wnuld be agood idea to coordinatc senior activitie,s with a11 community entities that provide
senior prograinmine, but Councilmember Taylor suggested that be done with caution as perhaps things to
coordinate would be better ways to transport seniors to and from activities, and we might not bc in a
position to expand our direct responsibilities. Mr. Jackson said that as we start to look more closely at
performance measurements, in the future, we realize that each adds work and time and we must be eareful .
about manaoing our time and resources.
5. Funding Ontions Bund Issues - Ken Thumnson
Finance Dii-ector '1`hompson said thaC one oF the upcoming pressing financial problems is City I-lall; that
he estimates the project at S 18 million; that we have six million plus interest; we could have a bond salc
for another six million when we are ready tn build (Councilmanie bonds), and could use w}iat we eu•e ,
paying for rent at the current site to retire the 20-year bond debt; but that still leaves a shortage of about ' six million; and that if he eontinues to set funds asidc cach year at the end of the year, that would amount to another $3.5 million, thereby only leaving a$2.5 million shortage; and khat we could manage a$2.5
million shortage but not a six inillion dollar shortage. There followed discussion on setting aside
$700,000 annually, and of amending the budget when necessary; or examining oxher altcrnatives. The
idea of grants was mentioncd, but Mr. Thompson said that grants are not likely for this type nf financing
issuc. City Attorney Connelly said he is working with our bonding altorneys in discussing funding
mechanisms, that they are wailing for some cost figures and should hflve a report for council soon on
diffei-ent ways to fund a cit}, hall; anci that options sue.h as other bonds, pcrhaps some grants, and taxes are
still being explored. Although grants may be available, Mr. Kersten menlioned I:hat havino someone with
the time and Exrcrtise to explore grant options is not ahvays an easy t-ksk, as you need someone highly
skilled and it could be costly, but also could be worth cxamining. Mayor Munson said dhat he prefers
keeping the reserve, but wants to have the ability to change his mind; Co which Mr. Thompson replied
Council ahvays has that option.
iVLr. Thompson also mentioned the $2 million needed for potholes plocaing, etc. and he sugge•sted lool:ing
at a vehicle tab fee, and mentioned that the Chamber of Commerce committee would like us to dedicate
such to the North Soudi Freeway. There follnwed lengthy discussion concerning possible Transportation
Bencfits Districts; that Mayor vlunson spoke with Senator Chris Marr- who feels avehicle tab fce should
be imnosed aiid dedicated to the North South Freeway, and such could generate $150 rnillion for that
freeway but would require a matching fee; Chat our own priorities include completivn of that fi-eeway; that
the County will hold a public hearing on this topic January 22"d; that perhaps a staff member could attend
the hearing; anci that Mayor Munson mentioned dhe County indicated they might ask for a tab fee greater
t'han $20.00. CouncilmembEr Wilhite explained that she attended a telephonic cnnversatian with Chris
Marr, «fio indicated he has to convince the rest nf the legislalure Co go along with that previous
suggestion, but it seems to be a growing consensus that $20.00 is not amplc for the needs and tllat the
Couacil Retreat yIinutes: 01-12-2008 Paee 8 of 11

~ message is that communities must help fund these enormnus transportation costs, and if more thsin $20.00 .
per tab is souF;ht, it will have to go for a public vote. Councilmember WilMite also mentioned the
. frustracion in tryina to esplain to the public about the imgortance of having freight use the Nnrth South
Freeway versus roads such as Barker; that an option is to increase the $20 fee an acldilional 20 or 30
dollars, with half of the additional amount being dediGated to the North South Feeeway, and then
generating a project list of «fiat they'd use the othcr fees for, adding thaC they could only be used for capital projects.
Furiher discussion nn this topic ensued, generating fiirther questions on dollar limits, timing, can the
County impose a feE before the City or vice-versa, when does.such fee require a vote of the people;
shauld this be a regional eff'ort or does the City of Spokane Valley act alone; can there be co-existing
Transportation I3enetils Districts; if the fiinds are to be used for a tederal highway, then why not usc
federal funds; would sueh a fee reduce potentia) funds for our own street maintenance; are there other
options not yet e.cplored; whaC are the advanCages and disadvanLages of goiiig wilh the County or forming
our oHm TBD; what can we do so we don't jeopardize our own ability for a$20.00 eounc:ilmanic bond;
are we running out of timc; and is it feasible to have rnAre than one ballot issue for this item. These
options will be fur[her explored and reported back al the.neYt council meeting, and Iklayror Munson said
he will endeavor to find out what Spokane City's views are on Lhis issue, as he believes they are having
their qwn retreat today as well and will be tliscussing this issue.

Public lnformation Officer Branch went through her PowerP.oint presentation on the options for
celebrating the City's fifth zinniversary, which will be March 31, 2008. There -was brief discussion and
some suggestions, including usin- every weck to "tcll our story" and discuss groHRh, ehange, what
occurred prior to incorporation and what lies ahead; that we shouid promote the City Center; have a(or
several) kick-off events at the end of March; havc a weEk-lont, focus Ending on March 31'; and of the possibility of having the Chamber involved. Mayor Munson suggested Council consider these options,
and_he_suggested_Che pos.sibilita! of-forming an ad hoc committee for these aclivit.ies: and asked staff to
bring this item back soon on an upcoming agcnda to discuss again.
4. Admin Report: Billboard Lease - CarY 17riskell
Mr. I7riskell explained the billboard lease situation involving Lamar Outdoor Advertising, and said that as
part of the widenino of Mullan Road, the Counry acquired land upon which the billboard was sited, and
the County agreed to allow Lamar to maintain the billboard on what was then County property; but when
Spokanc Valley incorporated, the properiy bccame the propcrty of the City of Spokane Valley; that this
issue was brought to CounciPs attenrion back in August 2003, but Council elected to removc il from the
agenda to discuss later. Mr. Driskell said he has discussed this issue with Lamar Outdoor Advertising,
and they have the proposed lease agreement as a result of those discussions. Mr. Driskell said some
options for Council to consider is to grant a]ease, sell the right-of way to Lamar, or require the removal
of the billboard. Council discussed the options, and Councilmember Gothmann mentionecl he feels we
cannot afford to sell the right-of-way, and said he has no objection to require the removal of the billboard,
or in the altema[ive, to move forNvard with the lease_. City Attorney Connelly added that if we ask them to
move the sign, we would have to move c,arefully in our role as property owner versus ow role as siVi
~ regulator. Mayor dViunson asked about including language into the lease agreement concerning allowing
180 days' time period to have the billboard removed if Council later wanted to inake that decision.
Deputy Mayor Denenny said he feels there is no reason to remove the sigr►, and therefore sees no reason
to lose the poCential income from the lease. Councilmembers favored moviiig fonNIard with a lease
agreement to bring forward for a future motion.
5. Admin Re2ort: Sidewalks (ADA) - Mike Connelly
Cit), Attorney Connelly explained that there are lengthy materials included in tonight's council packet,
including a memorandum giving the background of the discussions of this topic; the pertinent
Wasliington statutes that affect and regulate sidewalks; the secrion of the Spokarie Valley Municipal Code
which addresses nuisances; a memorandum conccrning snow on sidewalks, a draft ordinaoce from 2004
which was never adopted, minuccs from psist counci] meetings where the topic was addressed, and
examples of other c'rties and municipalities' ordinance concerning removal oi' snow and ice from
sidewllks.
Mr. Connelly said that Council has several options: (1) to do nothing and a.llow snow and ice to build up
. and if we want to prosecute, to do so a..s we do for other violations of Code, which is on a complaint-
driven basis; (2) we could "beef Lip the enforcement side, define the duty and offense more specifically
rather than just have it buried in the nuisance ordinance, and perhaps add some timelines likc penall:ies
would follow if the sidewalk is not cleaned in 24 hours; or (3) take a more glnbal apprpach and have a
more expansive ordinance which could address the various circumstances differently; and Nve could even
assume responsibility to clear specific high-risk pedestrian areas,'discuss plowing procedures, and
identify where 'we don't want the snow and ice accumulating on sidewalks. Mr. Connelly rcmindetl
Cnuncil that dle more expansive ordinance not only allows more flexibility bui adds more responsibility. .
Mr. Connelly mentioned that he has verbally aod in writing asked Spokane County for their ADA
feasibility study, but that request has not been g;ranted yet, and said he will be sending the County a
> Public Record Request to ask for the documenY Concerning other ADA requirements, Mr. Co»nelly
Council Regular Mecting: 01-08-08 Page 3 of 5

mentioned that Finance 17irector Ken Thompson is the City's designated responsible official to receive ..,1
A.DA-related complaints. Concerning specific ordinance options, Mr. Connelly said we do have the right
if Council desires, to make abutti.ng property owners more responsible, or we could charge them and =l
could even attach that as a lien if we do the work oursel<<es or hire someone to do that (cleaning the
sidewalks); and in response to council's questions about complaints, Mr. Connelly said we do get a few;
including some complaints that the properiy owner shoveled the sidewalk and then the sidewalk got
buried by the snowplow; or complaints of vehicles throwing up water and creating ice berms, and
complaints about the inability to walk along parts of Sprague and the difficulty of maneuvering a
. - wheelchair-,,N,hen-pcoper-ty-owmers_dan_t_shavel_dieir_side,NN,alk;_and_that_l1e_feels w:e_get_f-Ke_ rsix
complaints a winter.
Depury Mayor Denenny suggested perhaps we should forrn an ad hoc commiriee to address this issue,
including eaamining who should be responsible, bus routes, high traffic areas, and areas where children
walk to school. After further discussion, there was Council consensus to form an ad hoc committee to
work with staff in the areas mentioried above, and ARayror Munson appointed Deputy Mayor Denenny as
the committee chair, and i.ncluded Councillnembers Schimmels and Dempsey as committee members.
Deputy Mayor Denenny said he will communicate with others and staff, and that perhaps they could get a
map of the number of miles in order to get a sense of the areas of responsibilit`y.
6. Admin Report: Aviation Ordinance Discussion - Mike Connellv
City Attorney Connelly explaincd that there have been a number of citizen questions and concerns with
the density restrictioo set forth in our adopl.ed airport nverlay; that the primary eoncern is the prohibition
to create any neNv lot, regardless of the underlying zoning of less than 2.5 acres, and that Council has
asked for additional information concerning the requuements of this ordinance, and of the State
requirements of both adjaeent jurisdictions and oCher jurisdictions. Mr. Connelly pointed out his _
memorandum also contains details of what other jurisdictions have for airport regulations, and mentioned . that other Spokane County jurisdictions have less stringent airport regulations than our newly adopted
ordinance; «<hile some othcr Washington jurisdictions outside Spokane County have similar provisions to
those we recently passed, and he mentioned in particular Skagit County and Tumwater; and st,ated that
some options for Council include doing nothing, or refemng this* ordinance back to the Planning
Commission for review of the density provisians.
Council discussion included what Are and are not tlie primary crash zones; mention of concern about
heiaht or about noise and nuisance; with Mr. Connelly remarking that Council can choose to focus on or
express concerned about whatever they wish, whether safety and community, or title notice about some
risk and noise. Councilmember Gothinann said he would like the accident data of Felts Field. Other
remarks included discussion on having some mechanism to make sure people who move in the area or
buy property in the area reali7.,e they are i.n a fly zone; mention of the need to look at GIS brEa}:down of
what densities are residential zones built now and what lots already have housing; and that there are
hundreds of potential new lots tihat could be formed if these restirictions were not in plaCe.
Councilmember Taylor said he would like to examine the current density, would like to see what zone 6
covers relative to current residential areas, and see what is the average density currently in place. Mr.
Connelly said we can keep the ordinance before Couneil for furcher review, but any change will
ultimately need to go back to the Placuiing Commission. There was Council consensus to bring the data
back to Council that Councilmember Taylor asked for, then to send the ordinance back to the Flanning
Commission for fiirther deliberation.

AGENDA ITENi TITLE: First Reading Proposed Ordinance 08-001: Dangerous Dog and
Potentially Dangerous Dog Appeal procedures
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: *SVMC 7.30.035 and.040
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Adoption of Ordinance 07-003 in early 2007 created
city-specific appeal procedures separate from those adopted by Spokane County; information -
only January 8, 2008, administrative report January 15, 2008.
BACKGROUND: In January, 2007, the Council adopted new procedures for appeals of
administrative determinations relating to dangerous dogs and potentially dangerous dogs. This
became necessary after the County Commissioners advised the City that they would no longer
hear such appeafs for the City.
The City operated under these procedures over the past year. In early December, 2007, a
~ Spokane County Superior Court judge issueti a ruling on a C'rty of Spokane dangerous dog case
that caused us and Spokane County to look at our code provisions relating to such appeals. In
essence, the Court ruled that the City of Spokane's code did not provide sufficient due process
because it was not clear what rights an appellant had to review the evidence prior to the
hearing, and it Wvas not clear that the City has the burden of proof to establish that the
administrative determination was conect.
In reviewing our provisions, there may be room to challenge on the same basis. As such, +rue
advise amending our appeal provisions to clear up these ambiguities. -
I have reviewed these proposed changes with Dan Catt, the County Deputy Prosecuting
Attorney responsible for animal control issues, as well as Nancy Hill and Hearing Examiner Mike
Dempsey. They all concur that these proposed amendments appear to address any concerns
raised by the recent court decision.
OPTiONS: Suggest changes; move to a second reading; suspend the rules and adopt tonight
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: I move to advance Ordinance 08-001 to a second
reading. BUDGETIFINANCIAL IMPACTS: NA

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Lamar Outdoor billboard lease - motion consideration
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: NA
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: First touch was in August, 2003, at which time the
Council took it off of the agenda. Information only to Council on November 7, 2007,
Administrative report January 8, 2008.
BACKGROUND: Spokane County constructed Appleway Boulevard around 1999-2000. As
part of that project, Spokane County redesigned the intersection at Dishman-Mica and Sprague,
adding in Appleway. Part of that reconfiguration included widening Mullan Road at its point of
beginning at what is now Appleway Boulevard. In the process of widening IUlullan Road, the
County acquired land upon which a billboard was sited, owned by Lamar Outdoor. From what
~ stafif can gather, the County agreed to allow Lamar to maintain its billboard on what was then
County property. Attached is a map showing the location of the sign, along with several photos
of the sign, both from the north approach and south approach.
At the time the City incorporated, we became the owner of the property. We were in contact
with Lamar right after incorporation to discuss the terms of a potential lease, and a draft was
circulated. When it came. before the Council at a study session in August, 2003, the minutes
indicated it was removed from the Agenda. It has not come back up since that time.
Staff re-initiated discussions last year with Lamar to determine an appropriate course of action.
Staff then tabled the discussions again because the City was beginning serious discussions on
the Uniform Development Code, which includes billboard regulations. Staff wanted to let
Council arrive at its collective policy determination with regard to how billboards would be
treated generally in the context of the UDC, rather than the policy discussion being driven by the
fact the City owns property upon which a billboard sits and from which the City would derive
some income.
When staff discussed the three options with Council on January 8, the Council instructed staff to
prepare a motion for consideration for adoption of the proposed lease. There were several
questions about the 180 day termination period, and what affect, if any, that had on the lease
payment. I spoke vwith a different company about marlcet rates for similarly situated billboards,
and I am confident that $1,000 per year, with 2% annual increase is reasonabfe. As such, staff
recommends approval of this lease agreement. .
OPTIONS: Authorize staff to sign the lease agreement as drafted; authorize staff to sign lease
with changes; instruct staff to continue working on this matter.
RECOIVIMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: I move that we authorize the City Manager or
designee to sign the lease agreement as drafted. •

BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: $1,000 for the first year, with 2% annual increases.

Re: Crack Sealing
The County provided crack sealing for the City this last summer. In previous years their
work has been excellent and we have not had a problem with the material peeling out of
the cracks. This year the County used a new product which unfortunately did not
perForm well. The material is peeling out of the cracks and causing a considerable
mess along the roadways. The County has agreed to reseal any cracks next summer
that fail during this winter at no cost to the City. They have also agreed to attempt to
sweep up the loose material in an effort to clean up the streets. Some of the worst
locations are on Sprague between Bowdish and Adams on the east bound lanes,
Dishman PAica south of 16th on the south bound lanes and Sprague between Vista and
Par1c on the west bound lanes.

Memorandum To: Dave Mercier, City Manager From: Ken Thompson, Finance Director ,
Date: January 14, 2008
Re: December Report
. Finance employees worked in the following areas during llecember: BudLet variance/invesCment reports
Reports showino a cornparison oFrevenues and expenditures, to the 2007 Amended Budget, at December
31, are atCached. Staff provicles information on seleeted opei-ating funds at month end and a more
complete report quarterly. Overall, revenucs will likely eYCeec1 our esti►nates and expenditures will likely
be less rhan budgeted.
Gambling ca.c reccipts for 2007 ru-e less than projected in our budget. We have two significant accaunts
that have fallen behind. \Ne will continue to monitor thesc accounts but full collection is unlikely. Most
other rcvenues in the General Fund will be in e:ccess of our budget estimates. Fund balance (clollars left
over from prior years) will increase significantly from our preliminary estirnates as we finish closing out •
2006 imd ma.ke adjusnnents to our 2007 records. The inveslment report is attached for your review. Annual audit '
Our 2006 financial statements and audit should be finalized within 45 clays. V1re expect our auditors will
have the usual routine suggestions for improvement and also a comment that we need to monitor
worksheet preparat.ion more carefiilly, especially as dhey relate to fLxecl assets.
Preparation for January retreat
Revenues aiid expenditures were forecast in llecember for the retreat. Ciry gcneral fund, street fund and
capital neecis were projected inro 2013 to identify potential problems.
The strcet fund (maintenance of our streets) presenls the most significant problem. Consideratinn oP a
vehicle license tab fee will take place over the next fetiv months to see if this revenue source might be a
partial answer to our Punding needs. Spokane County has an interest in this funding source as well.
Year end fnancial records
Almos[ all finance tasks zire coordinated with the encl of cach aalendar year. tlecounts payable, payroll,
budgecing, lodging tax i-eimbursementslrepoiting, 1099 misccllaiieous incame statements, w-2 forms and
annuallquarterly reporting all require additional work at year end. Finance staff will be busy with these
duties during the next six months.

CODE COMPLIANCE:
The number of 'Violations Reported' on the foliowing chart reflecl.s actuai Spokane VaUey Zoning Code
violations, plus complaints received which were not viotations. The complaints received are added to thA
total because they reflect Gme officers spent in the fietd corxlucting investigaGans. In addition, the
"Investigated' and 'Pending' columns accurately reflect Caie Compliance's current ability to process and
investigate backlog cases
The following chart provides a monthly companson of the types of Spokane Valley Code violations
reported. Violations are reported based on tfi►e pnmary campiaint received, rather than the number of
additional viotations identified on any individual premcses. The investigation of a comptaint of junk
vehicfes, for exampla, might also resuft in identfication of additional vblations such as the accumulation
of trash or harboring of livestock. These are not included in thz summary. A total af 38 new complaints
were processed In December.
