Study Session Agenda,May 6,2014 CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY Request for Council Action Meeting Date: May 6, 2014 Department Director Approval Item: Check all that apply: ❑consent ❑unfinished business ®new business ® public hearing ❑ information ❑ admin.report ❑ pending legislation AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Proposed 2014 Annual Comprehensive Plan Amendments—Public Hearing GOVERNING LEGISLATION: RCW 36.70A, SVMC 17.80.140 and 19.30.010 PREVIOUS ACTION TAKEN: Admin Report—April 15, 2014 BACKGROUND: The Community Development Department received two privately initiated requests for site- specific Comprehensive Plan amendments. In addition, the City is proposing one site-specific Comprehensive Plan amendment. Sites approved for a Comprehensive Plan amendment receive a zoning classification consistent with the new land use designation. The Comprehensive Plan text amendments include amendments to six Comprehensive Plan Elements: Chapter 2 - Land Use, Chapter 3 — Transportation, Chapter 4 — Capital Facilities and Public Services, Chapter 6—Private and Public Utilities, Chapter 7—Economic Development, and Chapter 11 - Bike and Pedestrian. The proposed amendments also entail minor changes to other elements referencing the proposed amendments, such as a single reference to the City Center in the Comprehensive Plan Introduction. Staff presented the proposed amendments to the Planning Commission at a study session on February 13, 2014. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the amendments on February 27, 2014 and continued the hearing to the March 13th meeting. Following deliberations, the Planning Commission took the following actions: CPA 01-14 (Mirabeau Park)—voted to recommend that Council deny the specific map amendment; CPA 02-14 (SCRAPS -Bradley Road)—vote to recommend that Council deny the amendment resulted in a tie, as a result the motion failed. This is being forwarded without a recommendation; CPA 03-14 (Barker and Sprague)—voted to recommend that Council deny the specific map amendment; CPA 04-14 through CPA 08-14—voted to recommend approval of the text amendments; CPA 09-14—text amendment regarding parks and recreation: withdrawn due to timing of Park Master Plan update; and CPA 10-14: voted to recommend approval of the text amendment. An Administrative Report was presented to City Council on April 15th. No public comment was taken at that time. 1 of 2 PUBLIC NOTICE: Notice for the public hearing was placed in the Spokane Valley News Herald on March 18, 2014 and each site was posted with a"Notice of Public Hearing" sign. Individual public hearing notices were mailed to all property owners within 400 feet of each proposed amendment, and a display ad was placed in the Spokesman Review and Spokane Valley Herald for publication on: April 25, April 26, May 2, and May 3. SEPA REVIEW: Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA — RCW 43.21C), environmental checklists were required for each proposed amendment. Amendments to a comprehensive plan are considered "non-project actions" defined as actions involving decisions on policies, plans, or programs that contain standards controlling use or modification of the environment. Additional environmental review may be required for the physical development of the subject properties. A Determination of Non-significance (DNS) was issued for the proposed amendments on February 7, 2014 consistent with SVMC 21.20.070. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT PROPOSALS: Proposed amendments to the Comprehensive plan are organized into individual reports consisting of staff reports, maps, and comments submitted to date to assist the City Council in its review. OPTIONS: Consensus to proceed to Motion Consideration scheduled for May 13, 2014; or take other action as appropriate. STAFF CONTACT: Lori Barlow, AICP, Senior Planner ATTACHMENTS: 1) Power Point Presentation 2) Stanley J Jochim—comment letter received April 28,2014 3) See separate yellow notebook provided April 15, 2014: Contents include 2014 Comprehensive Plan amendments with individual Staff Reports, Planning Commission Meeting minutes, and comments received. Please note that the yellow notebooks will be used throughout this entire process, and at the end of the process they should be returned to Community Development for use in subsequent year's Comprehensive Plan amendments. 2 of 2 j COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PwNNING Proposed 2014 Comprehensive Plan Amendments Public Hearing May 6, 2014 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENTPLNG DIVISION SVCP Amendment Process Planning Commission City Council Review Ordinance Adoption Public Hearing 1st Reading Public Hearing Feb. 27 May 6 May 27 Recommendation Admin Report 2nd Reading March 13 May 13 June 10 Motion Consideration May 20 Proposed 2014 Comprehensive Plan Amendments COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENTPLNG_ 6_ ua�iYDIVISION City- InitiatedMap Amen Project Number CPA-01-14 °Applicant: City of Spokane Valley 11707 East Sprague Ave, Suite 106 Spokane Valley, WA 99206 Application Change City-owned parcel 45101.9068 from Parks/Open Description Space to Mixed Use Center Proposed 2014 Comprehensive Plan Amendments __L ._ sp>catiiey COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PLANNING DIVISION — e ' ' / :_____------ ._. nP� .,,i_„----___----____----=------- 1 ___, ,____ 1 _ / !

Sprague Ave. Suite 106 .viTroF,v 4, Spokane Valley, WA 99206 cpp MFNT Dear Lori Barlow, Recently I received a NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING relating to Project Number CPA-03-14 that concerns the property located at 4 N. Barker Rd., Parcel#55173.1005. Unfortunately, I will be unavailable on the date indicated for this important meeting. It is nevertheless important that I make a few observations concerning this proposed zoning change and have them included as part of the public record. I am the owner of the property located at 11 N. Barker Road, which is the corner lot located directly to the west of the parcel of the proposed zoning change. I believe a change from LDR/R-3 to HDR/MF-2A is too dramatic of a zoning change at this time and is totally out of character with the surrounding area. To my knowledge, there is no other like type development in Greenacres. One of the problems with high concentration developments is that they often bring in a large group of people that place more burdensome requirements on existing public services than single-family or smaller multi-family developments. Statistically, crime is also more prominent in these high concentration developments. There is also a big problem with traffic at the intersection of Barker/Sprague and the road segment between Appleway Ave. and 1-90. Adding several hundred more daily traffic events in these area will only aggravate an already overburdened road system. I am not against development, as such, providing it is prudently done and in keeping with the character and needs of the community. In any event we should always seek to improve the status of our neighborhoods and not encourage development that tends to reduce overall desirability of the surrounding community. Bluntly, this zoning request appears more for the accommodation of the developer and does not give sufficient deference to the neighborhood. To max out the land use in this fashion is not good community planning. I would theref. enc,urage the Planning Division to retain the current zoning of LDR/R-3, since it already seems to p-r - construction of approximately 30 additional residences. This I believe is already fairly high :et.f y • g f.r the existing neighborhood.

PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: December 10, 2013, Council concurrence to bring the project to a future Council meeting for motion consideration. BACKGROUND: The new Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) Permit for stormwater from City municipal sources (Permit) calls for the City to work with other Eastern Washington jurisdictions to study stormwater program and system effectiveness. City staff, with concurrence from staff representing 16 Cities and 6 Counties in eastern Washington, is leading the initial effort, receiving grant funding from Ecology for the first phase of studies development (see information, Council October 8, 2013 regular meeting minutes pgs 221-224). The permit infers a multi-year and multi-phase project. Future phases will require other jurisdictions to take lead of various tasks and studies to be determined, and require commitment by all jurisdictions to fund the studies. The initial funding for the first phase, however, is 100% reimbursable for up to $300,000 and will be led by City staff under the direction of the City Manger. Project benefits to the City include: 1. Compliance with new Permit obligations 2. Shows partnership with other Cities/Counties in Eastern Washington 3. Allows City staff to help identify/recommend lower cost and higher value study options 4. Ecology will reimburse 100% of project for staff time, consultants, and expenses 5. Could find the tools needed to determine the "right amount" of sweeping, vactoring, public education, bmp sizing, etc. A request for engineering consultant qualifications was issued on April 2, 2014, with 4 firms providing statements of qualifications on April 21, 2014. A recommendation committee, representing eastern Washington municipal stormwater permittees including City staff, will interview the firms. Staff will be requesting Council approval for the City Manager to enter into negotiations with a consultant and finalize an agreement for up to $270,000 of project services. OPTIONS: Information RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Information BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Staff time and expenses, including consultant costs up to $270,000, to help the City meet initial Permit required work to develop effectiveness study ideas, 100% reimbursable by Ecology funding up to $300,000 for this first phase.

CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY Request for Council Action Meeting Date: May 6, 2014 Department Director Approval: Check all that apply: ❑ consent ❑ old business ❑ new business ❑ public hearing ® information ❑ admin. report ❑ pending legislation ❑ executive session AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Draft Update 2015-2020 Stormwater Capital Improvement Project List GOVERNING LEGISLATION: RCW 90.48, Chapter 173-200 WAC, Title 33 U.S.C. 1251-1376; Storm and Surface Water Utility: SVMC 3.80; PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Approval 2014-2019 SW CIP May 28, 2013. BACKGROUND: Staff is working on a 6-year Stormwater Utility Capital Improvement Plan (SW CIP), updating last year's 2014-2019 plan to a new 2015-2020 SW CIP. The formulation of a project list is central to the development of the SW CIP. The draft project list reflects public requests for service or improvement, and the identification of needs by staff or management. The projects are prioritized and listed by year based on available local funds and anticipated State grant funding, flood mitigation need, regulatory requirements, opportunity for cost sharing and savings with other community projects, or as a long-term utility cost savings measure. Many projects could be funded in part by anticipated future stormwater grants or other funding based on the ranking and score of previous projects that the City has already received grant funding. Where staff indicated a project as eligible for a possible future grant, only the estimated local match is shown in the budget. In this proposed approach, staff would seek to apply for outside funding in upcoming years based on this list. Obtaining funding for projects on this list would thereby leverage and maximize local funds to the highest extent possible allowing the City to do more with the same amount of local funding. If the City did not receive grants in the amounts required for certain projects, the City could then decide if it wants to proceed with the project with additional local funds or wait on the project to a future date. Staff will be requesting meeting dates in May to bring a draft 2015-2020 SW CIP to the Council for consideration and approval. OPTIONS: n/a. RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: n/a BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Impacts include 2015 budget requests and discussion for future budget years in the 402 and 403 funding accounts.

Exotic Metals Forming is a leader in state-of-the-art, high-temperature, high- strength sheet metal designs and fabrications for the aerospace industry. Their company is considered one of the preferred suppliers of complex sheet metal assemblies The site in Airway Heights will accommodate a 150,000 square foot building that will be home to 150 new employees. This new location will utilize world-class lean principles and methods, and be a site for fabrication and assembly of aerospace exotic alloy ducting. Employees will include CNC machinists, TIG welders (manual and automated), assemblers, testers, and engineering technicians. "This is a great day for our community and for the entire state,"said Rich Hadley, President and CEO of Greater Spokane Incorporated. "Growing the aerospace industry in Spokane County is one of GSI's strategic objectives and this is a great example of how economic development is a team sport. We are proud to be home to Exotic's Eastern Washington manufacturing facility." As the second largest aerospace community in Washington, Spokane has developed a recruitment strategy that positions the region as the ideal place for aerospace investments. With over 110 aerospace companies employing more than 12,000 workers, Spokane has the right infrastructure and business climate for aerospace suppliers and manufacturers that are looking for new or expansion sites. "Exotic Metals is another example of an aerospace manufacturer that recognizes the quality of our workforce and the quality of our location,"said Al French, Chair, Spokane County Board of Commissioners. "This is a true game changer we believe will significantly elevate the Spokane region in the minds of the global aerospace community." Page Two March 21, 2014 "Today is an important step— if not a momentous moment—toward realizing our economic goals,"said Mayor David Condon, City of Spokane. "My hope is that others across the Pacific Northwest, and the globe, will discover what Exotic has undoubtedly learned; Spokane has an excellent trained and available workforce, collaborative business and political leaders, a low business cost environment, tremendous educational institutions, and a quality of life that is second to none." The announcement is the result of over six years of work to select and prepare the right site in the Spokane region. The recruitment team included members from Avista Corporation, City of Airway Heights, City of Spokane, Community Colleges of Spokane, Greater Spokane Incorporated, Spokane County and Spokane International Airport, in addition to our state partners in the Governor's office and the Washington Department of Commerce. "We're excited that Exotic Metals is joining our City, culminating successful recruiting efforts led by our officials, Greater Spokane Incorporated and the Spokane International Airport," says Airway Heights Mayor Patrick Rushing. "The Airway Heights City Council shares a unified vision and goal to grow the aerospace industry in and around the City. Moving forward on this vision will help make the lives of our residents and businesses more productive and financially viable." The 56.6-acre site, purchased from the Spokane International Airport, is located near McFarlane and Lawson streets in Airway Heights and presents ample room for future growth and expansion. 'Working with Exotic Metals and the City of Airway Heights has resulted in a strategic win for the future of aviation and aerospace on the West Plains," said Lawrence J. Krauter, CEO of the Spokane International Airport. 'Today's announcement is evidence of the Airport Board's commitment to growing the economic impact of Spokane International Airport and its support of the regional aerospace industry. We look forward to a continued partnership with the City as we work towards furthering this goal." Aerospace careers are paid slightly higher than Spokane County's annual average wage of about $41,900. Based on the payroll for Exotic employees and the investment in the new facility, 051 calculates the annual economic impact for the project at more than $100 million. Each new Exotic Metals job will create at least one additional job in our region through the local supply chain and consumer purchases, equaling more than 300 total new jobs. During the recruitment process, GSI staff assisted the company with community and site tours, workforce availability and funded training programs, municipal and utility contacts, and connections to local manufacturers. In addition, GSI also advocated and received Governor's Strategic Reserve Funds that were utilized by Exotic Metals for pro-planning and site readiness activities. "Congratulations to Exotic Metals Forming Company on its expansion in Airway Heights," said Governor Jay Inslee. 'We are pleased to support this 48-year old company as it continues to invest in Washington, capitalizing on the tremendous expansion of commercial airplane production at The Boeing Company. This is an important day for Airway Heights, the greater Spokane region, and the entire State of Washington."

I found it informative and helpful, and both you and the Board were most accommodating. It appears we are on track to fix the issue. As I indicated was going to happen on April 17, I led a discussion with our Council on April 22 regarding the current assessment formula,as well some background information on the Board. Based on that,our Council asked me to inquire about several topics,then I will come back before them to provide the additional information. Our Council was interested in the following: 1. Information (raw data and a map) showing the number of violations across Spokane County, including in Spokane Valley, for 2011-13. I believe a copy of the map on the wall at the last meeting would be very helpful, along with the supporting data. 2. Supporting data for how the determination was made for the$2.00 per parcel for the minimum fee. This would include any analysis that the per-acre charge of 6 cents or 12 cents is still an appropriate amount, and how many parcels there are County-wide. Did the Board consider changing the per-acre charge as well? 3. Does the Board intend to cap the increase at$60,000,then adjust the assessment amount on an annual basis to reflect this figure. Can you please address that? 4. Copies of your noxious weed schedules. Thanks again for your assistance. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me. Very truly ours, ..4Le C Dri CPD/pd c: Mike Jackson,City Manager
