the three bronze sculpture donations, mentioned the Spokane Valley Arts Council Student Art
Scholarship program; and said that he has a large private collection of art; and in speaking with individual
councilmembers, he broached the subject of the City and the Arts Council partnering in some way to
provide a structure to house the art work; and said if this idea sounded appealing, he would welcome a
future meeting with the Arts Council and Spokane Valley Council. Dr. Harken also encouraged

Councilmember Hafner: reported that he helped at the Union Gospel Thanksgiving Dinner; went to the
STA (Spokane Transit Authority) meeting where they continue to discuss their ten-year "Moving
Forward" program, including the possible sales tax ballot issue, mentioned the proposed high transit

has not yet approved; mentioned the potential economic development for the City of Spokane but
questioned what it would do for the other municipalities; also went to Visit Spokane and heard discussion
Minutes Regular Council Meeting 12-09-2014 Page 1 of 7
Approved by Council:
DRAFT
about how they would use the possible $250,000 in funding our City might provide through the Lodging
Tax Allocation process; he said he feels Visit Spokane is one of the best organizations to continue the
growth and development of tourism to our City; said he also had an additional STA meeting about
development and organization of providing funds for additional buses; and said that it appears every
school district in the area will be going for a bond issue in February, as will the Fire District and perhaps
STA.
Councilmember Pace: mentioned he is also on the STA Board and voiced his concerns with the upcoming
"ballot fatigue" and that placing the sales tax increase could get in the way of other bond issues; said he
attended the STA Planning Committee meeting where they heard a report from three business
organizations about their recommendations on the Plaza.
Councilmember Higgins: no report.
Councilmember Wick: reported that he attended the SRTC (Spokane Regional Transportation Council)
meeting last month where they discussed the process of managing and preventing traffic congestion, and
of the least expensive alternatives; went to the Ad Hoc Rail Committee where the focus was on the rail
freight movement, especially the oil freight; heard a discussion on the funding mechanism on grade
separation projects on rail corridors, such as our Bridging the Valley projects; said the Lodging Tax
Advisory Committee (LTAC) has had several different meetings with different groups, including a
Chamber of Commerce Government Action Committee meeting last week, and mentioned he feels he has
more information since the last LTAC meeting; he attended the Airport Board meeting when the
Governor was in town just prior to Thanksgiving; attended the tree lighting ceremony and mentioned the
wonderful Sunrise Elementary School Choir. Councilmember Hafner added that he also attended that
event as well as the "Breakfast with Santa" which had about 500 people participating.
Deputy Mayor Woodard: said he assisted at the Union Gospel Mission Thanksgiving Dinner; attended
several Chamber of Commerce meetings; went to the Tree Lighting and lauded the Sunrise Children's
choir; said he attended additional special research meetings, and he appreciates the calls from citizens.
MAYOR'S REPORT: Mayor Grafos reported that he attended the Gospel Union Mission Thanksgiving
Dinner, which is a very special event to help those in need; went to the meeting at the Longhorn
Restaurant where they were heard a report from the Sports Commission about the proposed new sports
complex, which he said would be a $40 million proposal for an upcoming ballot; and that he too went to
the tree lighting and was impressed with the Children's Choir.
PUBLIC COMMENTS: Mayor Grafos invited public comment.
Ms. Tzena Scarborough, from Wreaths Across America, invited everyone to the third annual ceremony,
this December 13, 2014, at noon at the Pines Cemetery inside the Pines Mausoleum; and said this is a
wonderful way to honor our veterans and express appreciation for their sacrifice.
Chris Wetherall: of Millwood, spoke about his desire for a quiet zone; said the train noises and horns are
annoying; suggested closing Vista, which would reduce train noise in that neighborhood by 50%; said
BNSF Railroad likes to trade and perhaps they would make Park a quiet zone in exchange for the City
closing Vista.
Tony Hansen: of Liberty Lake, spoke concerning lodging tax, she gave a handout showing the "trickle-
down" effect of funding support; and she urged Council to fully fund the Sports Commission and Visit
Spokane.
Ian Riley: concerning gambling tax, he asked that our City consider lowering the tax; said the City of
Spokane lowered their tax for the first quarter of next year, by 2%, and will lower the tax the following
year by an additional percent; suggested our taxes mirror the tax of Spokane or his business would be at a
disadvantage.
Liz Beck: concerning lodging tax, said she lives in Spokane but represents the Super 8 Hotel on Argonne
Road in Spokane Valley; said we can't do without the visitors and that the Sports Commission brought
numerous event s to the area, and without those, Spokane Valley would not be what it is today, and said
Minutes Regular Council Meeting 12-09-2014 Page 2 of 7
Approved by Council:

she highly appreciates those two organizations, the Sports Commission and Visit Spokane, as they bring
events and tourism to our area.

NEW BUSINESS:
2. Second Reading Proposed Ordinance 14-020 Adopting Shoreline Master Program — Lori Barlow
After City Clerk Bainbridge read the Ordinance title, it was moved by Deputy Mayor Woodard and
seconded to approve Ordinance No. 14-020 adopting the Shoreline Master Program. Ms. Barlow said
that this has been before Council on numerous occasions, and this would complete the action for the local
adoption of the Shoreline Master Program and move this document to the Department of Ecology for their
review and approval; after which it would come back as a separate action before being implemented. She
explained that there have been no changes to the ordinance since the first reading; that some comments
were received after the public hearing, and they have been forwarded to Council and are similar to
comments which have previously gone through the process. Mayor Grafos invited public comments. Mr.
Patrouch of URS Corporation, said he feels this document reflects the goals and he commends everyone
for a great job. There were no other comments. Vote by Acclamation: In Favor: Unanimous. Opposed:
None. Motion carried.
2a. Proposed Emergency Ordinance 14-021 Adopting a Marijuana Moratorium- Erik Lamb
City Manager Jackson explained that this moratorium would be for marijuana use not currently covered
and sanctioned by the Liquor Control Board; that it is important to note that this does not extinguish the
current rights for medical marijuana, but rather this concerns accepting, or processing applications for
additional use of any type of unlicensed marijuana or marijuana not currently covered by the recreational
marijuana laws. Mr. Jackson explained that we realize there is quite a bit of uncertainty related to
marijuana, and on Council's legislative agenda is a request for the State to reconcile the medical and
recreational laws; that this would permit an opportunity to stop the process of additional medical
marijuana, and he mentioned the vaping lounges and questions and concerns about those lounges, and of
the ability of those lounges to have social use of marijuana; said we are simply stating that these things
are not covered under the current state statutes; and said we have also heard about the lack of laws
regarding underage consumption. Mr. Jackson said staff has reviewed this with Community Development
and our Legal Departments and it is our recommendation to come forward with an emergency ordinance;
and by the very nature of it, we bring it forward without advertising because the concept is, it is of
importance to the health and safety to the community, and we don't want to be inundated with
Minutes Regular Council Meeting 12-09-2014 Page 3 of 7
Approved by Council:
DRAFT
applications in an interim period between announcing this and bringing it to Council. Mr. Jackson also
noted that because this is an emergency ordinance, state statutes require this to be passed by a super
majority, which is a majority of the total Council plus one, or by a vote of at least five Councilmembers.
After City Clerk Bainbridge read the ordinance title, it was moved by Deputy Mayor Woodard and
seconded, to suspend the rules and approve Ordinance No. 14-021, adopting a moratorium on marijuana
uses that are not licensed by the Washington Liquor Control Board. After Deputy City Attorney Lamb
went over the recitals in the ordinance, he explained that medical marijuana remains in a state of flux, that
it is not regulated by any state agency, and there are apparent gaps in state law, such as private
consumption lounges; the law also lacks provisions to address underage consumption; he said it is
anticipated the legislature will address the underage consumption in 2015, but we have no idea of when
that might occur, or what those provisions might contain; he said marijuana remains a Schedule 1
controlled drug so in the eyes of the federal government, it is illegal. Mr. Lamb explained that the
moratorium is appropriate as it will allow us to see what the state adopts; and he explained that this
Council would hold a public hearing on this moratorium at the January 27, 2015 Council meeting. Mr.
Lamb said that section two of the ordinance contains the meat of the regulations; and said this would
prohibit new marijuana uses other than those already authorized and licensed, so it would prohibit any
new medical collective garden but would not impact any existing medical marijuana facility; he said this
addresses the business operation and not the personal use; he said section three lays out a work plan; and
that the duration of this moratorium is one year from today. Mayor Grafos invited public comment.
Sean Green, City of Spokane: said he has a business in Spokane Valley and said there is no indication of
what is causing this emergency; said cities and towns have the authority to adopt zoning and other
requirements and that we have more than adequate commercial zoning to accommodate this; said
Spokane has twelve licensed operations and has been working effectively and he urged Council to look at
Spokane's ordinance and consider passing that; said he feels no emergency exists, and we have had over
three years to adopt regulations; also mentioned the lack of public notice for this action would be in
violation of state law; and he asked that Council not pass this ordinance.
Tim Finnigan: said he opposes the moratorium as written lumping medical and recreational marijuana in
the same breath; said he used medical marijuana for specific reasons as he doesn't want to use prescription
narcotics; said he has a medical prescription for marijuana that cost him $200; said he doesn't want to take
oxycodone as he doesn't want to be become an addict; that medical marijuana doesn't produce
hallucinations and it is not addictive; said this would shut down any further medical dispensaries; and
lumping this in with a vapor lounge does him a disservice.
Tara Harrison: Spokane Valley resident; said she has been a volunteer at a medical dispensary for two
years; saw a need and filled it; found several hundred people like Mr. Finnigan who simply want their
medicine; said this ordinance is not a good idea; that it will hurt the valley and limit small business
growth, and to knock sick people out for no reason is not justifiable.
Eric Buchanan: Spokane Valley; echoed what the others said; said medical is different from recreational;
it is hard to tell someone they can't have their medicine; and medical marijuana tends to lower the risk and
number of people who die of opiate deaths; not allowing people to socially interact with others hurts; the
more people smoke the less then drink and alcohol is more of an evil than cannabis.
Paul Lugo: said he has a medical cannabis business in the City of Spokane and has no interest in the
Valley, its politics or anything else; said this ordinance shouldn't be done out of fear or lack of adequate
ordinances; that it creates an emergency that doesn't exist and he urged Council to look at the ordinances
of the City of Spokane.
Minutes Regular Council Meeting 12-09-2014 Page 4 of 7
Approved by Council:
DRAFT
Heather Graham: Spokane Valley; said this doesn't limit Mr. Finnegan's ability to obtain his medicine;
that maybe the City of Spokane's ordinance would be an option, but this moratorium would give us plenty
of time to decide what is right for the City of Spokane Valley and to take into consideration the new data
that will come forward; that she works as a school nurse and sees the impact of the availability of
marijuana and of the tendency to "normalize" marijuana as the kids think it's not a big deal anymore; and
said she favors the moratorium.
Kevin Jacobs: Spokane Valley; said he owns the Marijuana Tap House and Grill next to the cannabis
private vapor lounge; said they separated the areas from those who choose alcohol; said he doesn't drink
but sees the need for a safe environment for adults; not kids; said they have never had kids in their place;
that he realizes the moratorium is about new businesses and he opposes the moratorium.
There were no further public comments. Councilmember Hafner said that tonight is also Council's first
encounter with this ordinance and that it provides Council an opportunity to digest what they heard, and
for our City to put something together that is right for this City. Deputy Mayor Woodard asked about the
public hearing and Mr. Lamb confirmed that it will be held January 27, before Council; and that
afterwards, the Planning Commission will consider permanent regulations to forward to Council. Deputy
Mayor Woodard noted that commercial hemp is not noted in the ordinance and said there is a big industry
for that and it is very different; said we have seen an explosion of citations for driving under the
influence, and a lot of them were by youth; said he spoke with representatives from the school district and
they also have seen an explosion of this issue in the schools, and feels the public hearing and the
emergency are the right things to do.
Councilmember Wick asked how many medical marijuana applications have been received, and Mr.
Lamb said prior to 2012, six were approved; since then we have twelve with a total of eighteen identified
now specific to marijuana; adding that many people will complete their business license for "alternative
medicine" so it may not show up as medical marijuana; and said that this moratorium will not affect any
vested rights someone might have or any land uses, and business licenses are exempt. Mayor Grafos said
he favors the moratorium as it would provide a measure of certainty and give the opportunity to look at
this situation in a logical manner, examine what the City of Spokane did, and conduct the public hearing.
Vote by Acclamation: In Favor: Unanimous. Opposed: None. Motion carried.
Mayor Grafos called for a recess at 7:45 p.m., and reconvened the meeting at 7:56 p.m.
3. Proposed Resolution 14-014 Terminating Easement — Cary Driskell
It was moved by Deputy Mayor Woodard and seconded to approve Resolution 14-014 to release the City's
interest in the south stormwater drainage area access easement on 3715 South Woodruff Road, and
authorize the City Manager to finalize and execute all documents necessary thereto. As noted on his
December 9, 2014 Request for Council Action form, City Attorney Driskell explained that this was part
of the Ponderosa 6th Addition process that was platted in 1980; that he spoke with the public works staff
who advised that we don't need that easement or the previous one, and this resolution would relinquish
that easement on the south side; adding that the owners have been advised they will need to apply for a
plat alteration to remove the easement on the north side of their property which was created through the
platting action of the Ponderosa 6th Addition. Mayor Grafos invited public comment; no comments were
offered. Vote by Acclamation: In Favor: Unanimous. Opposed: None. Motion carried.
4. Motion Consideration: Mayoral Appointment to Spokane Housing Authority — Mayor Grafos
Mayor Grafos explained that the Spokane Housing Authority's mission is to provide, develop, and
promote quality affordable housing options in the communities they serve, and that they annually provide
housing assistance to over 5,000 families of low income through a combination of tenant -based rental
assistance, SHA -owned apartment communities, and scattered site housing. Mayor Grafos said that after
Minutes Regular Council Meeting 12-09-2014 Page 5 of 7
Approved by Council:
DRAFT
due consideration of the applications submitted for this opening, he recommends the appointment of Ms.
Gretchen Campbell to the Spokane Housing Authority (SHA) Board of Commissioners. Mayor Grafos
extended his thanks to the other applicant, Ms. Angela Johnson. It was then moved by Deputy Mayor
Woodard and seconded to confirm the Mayoral appointment of Gretchen Campbell to the Spokane
Housing Authority Board of Commissioners for a term beginning January 1, 2015, and ending December
31, 2019. Mayor Grafos invited public comment.
Ms. Angela Johnson, said that as someone very involved in the community and who has a housing
background, and is a stickler for policies and procedures, that it is of great concern that she applied
November 14 and heard from no one, no interviews, no calls, no one spoke to her or her references; said
she sat here for two hours, with the flu and 102° temperature making everyone in the room sick; she said
she is thankful she heard from Pamela Tietz, Executive Director of the Spokane Housing Authority, who
took the initiative to contact her for an interview; said this is a very important appointment, yet no one
took the time to meet with her or the other candidate, and the choice was based only on her two-page
application; said she feels this would have been an obligation to meet with her; said she was grateful to
have a meeting with Pamela, and they had a great hour together; said she is disappointed in not getting
this appointment since she feels she is very qualified, but is even more disappointed that no one from the
City ever contacted her. There were no other public comments. Vote by Acclamation: In Favor:
Unanimous. Opposed: None. Motion carried.
5. Motion Consideration: Approval of Contract, Argonne Corridor Project — Steve Worley
It was moved by Deputy Mayor Woodard and seconded to award the Argonne Road Corridor Upgrade
Project #0060 to Cameron -Reilly in the amount of $1,142,108.70 and to authorize the City Manager to
finalize and execute the construction contract. Senior Engineer Worley explained about the bid award as
noted on his December 9, 2014 Request for Council Action form, and about the two additives, and said
that the two bids came in slightly higher than anticipated. Mayor Grafos invited public comment; no
comments were offered. Vote by Acclamation: In Favor: Unanimous. Opposed: None. Motion carried.
PUBLIC COMMENTS: Mayor Grafos invited public comment.
Tara Harrison: said that on October 31, 2012, her daughter was hit by a car in a pedestrian cross -walk; she
asked about getting lights especially in areas where there are three -lane crosswalks with no lights; said her
daughter got across two lanes of traffic that had stopped for her, but was hit in the third lane as they didn't
see her; that she was thrown about 30' and landed on her back and was very lucky to have survived; and
said she would love to see lights or some kind of safety measure there; that the accident occurred in the
southbound traffic lane at the intersection of Valleyway, Argonne and Mullan; said there is generally a
huge amount of foot traffic and bikes in that area and it is very hazardous.
ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS:
6. Advance Agenda — Mayor Grafos
Mayor Grafos noted the information only item about the no truck signs and asked if that would come back
to Council. Mr. Jackson replied that at this time, it is just for information and will leave the decision to
Council whether this should be re -addressed. While Mayor Grafos and Councilmember Hafner agreed
they would like to re-examine this issue, there was no consensus from Council to re -visit the topic.

CITY MANAGER COMMENTS
City Manager Jackson said that next Wednesday at 9:00 a.m. in the second floor conference room here at
City Hall, there will be a meeting with the legislators and that he will distribute some "talking points"
prior to the meeting. Mr. Jackson mentioned that next Tuesday's Council meeting will include the topic

of marijuana concerning consumption by minors, and our legislative agenda for medical marijuana, and
that one of the ideas concerning marijuana is to completely eliminate any other marijuana system, such as
medical, and combine it all into one marijuana process, and if it is determined that a tax deduction is
needed for the medical marijuana, that the process could possibly be done through the establishment.
In other business, Councilmember Hafner said that this morning he visited Councilmember Bill Bates in
the hospital; that he is undergoing radiation, has lung cancer, and they are in the processing of reducing a
tumor and it has decreased; and that he also has pneumonia; that he was out of bed for the first time today,
and was sitting in a chair and is starting to gain some of his strength back; and he would appreciate calls
or visits, but if you plan to visit, to please call ahead of time. Mr. Jackson added that Mr. Bates mentioned
that he would like to participate in some of the regular council meeting sessions via telephone, beginning
in January, and that the process is provided for in the Governance Manual. There was no objection to
having Mr. Bates join future meetings via telephone.
It was moved by Deputy Mayor Woodard, seconded and unanimously agreed to adjourn. The meeting
adjourned at 8:26 p.m.

Councilmember Bates. It was moved by Councilmember Pace, seconded and unanimously agreed to
excuse Councilmember Bates from tonight's meeting.
ACTION ITEMS:
1. Countywide Hazard Mitigation Plan — Luis Garcia
It was moved by Deputy Mayor Woodard and seconded to approve Resolution No. 14-015 adopting the
Hazard Mitigation Update. Mr. Garcia explained that as noted during the December 2 Council meeting,
compliance with the Disaster Mitigation Act and the Countywide Disaster Mitigation Update will be
undertaken by a multi -jurisdictional planning effort; the original plan has since expired and the update is
required in order for our City to qualify for federal funding under the Disaster Mitigation Act. Mr. Garcia
said a previous question arose about when funds would be available, and said if we have a project to steer
toward hazard mitigation, we could apply for funds as there doesn't need to be a specific event; and as
also mentioned during the December 2 Council meeting, no City funds will be used as this is part of a
grant from the County and the resolution is to fulfill our part as a planning partner; he said no restrictions
would be placed on businesses or property owners as a result of this Plan; it does not cover acts of
terrorism, but protects public facilities against natural events. Mayor Grafos invited public comment; no
comments were offered. Vote by Acclamation: In Favor: Unanimous. Opposed: None. Motion carried.
2. Lodging Tax Allocations for 2015 — Mark Calhoun
Deputy City Manager Calhoun explained the process thus far concerning the funding requests for 2015,
and of the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee's (LTAC) recommendations. Mr. Calhoun also went over
the past changes in the legislation, including that the Council may only approve the recommended
amounts from the list provided; that Council could choose to make awards to all, some, or none of the
recommended applicants, could remand everything back to the LTAC for further re -consideration, or
decide to have the entire process started all over again, which he said, is a fairly long time period of about

three to four months. Another option, Mr. Calhoun noted, was to hold all the money until the 2016
process, which begins in the fall of 2015. After some brief Council discussion about the process options,
Deputy Mayor Woodard said his preference was to send everything back to the committee, not for new
applications, but for the committee to reconsider the allocations. Councilmember Hafner said he was not
happy at the last Council meeting with the recommended allocations; he noted Council's "Goals and
Priorities for use of Lodging Tax revenues," and said in some incidences, he feels those goals and
priorities were not considered; but rather the LTAC only considered "heads in beds," and he said there
are other major components to tourism, such as shopping and dining, and suggested perhaps some of the
recommended allocations should go back to the committee for further consideration.
Councilmember Wick said that there have been a lot of developments and new information since the
LTAC met; that the applications are great, but perhaps we should move forward through development of
destinations and assets; said the more of those we can produce, the more Visit Spokane and others can do
for us; said he feels the Committee missed Goal #3 [Utilize funds for capital expenditures to develop
tourism destination facilities or venues within the City of Spokane Valley.]. Councilmember Wick said
the study about the sports complex came up at a different meeting, and said we didn't have that
information before; said he feels there was some misunderstanding about what the sand volleyball courts
would look like; and reiterated that he feels the committee didn't have all the information; and perhaps it
would be worth the three month delay in starting all over again. Councilmember Pace added that perhaps
Council and staff could do some brainstorming to suggest a strategic plan for facilities. Concerning the
idea of starting all over again, Councilmember Hafner said he feels that would be a change of direction
and not fair to those current applicants. Deputy Mayor Woodard said it is the hoteliers who collect the tax
and do the processing and paperwork; and agreed more work is needed but prefers the short-term option
of sending everything back for reconsideration; adding that he feels goal #5 of dedicating 5% toward new
projects, activities and/or events wasn't used this year.
Mayor Grafos said he doesn't see anything wrong with the process; that the goals appear clear, and that it
seems the goal should be to help create community identity; that Spokane has Bloomsday and the Lilac
Parade, and we have Valleyfest; and it seems the events that benefit our City were shortchanged. Mayor
Grafos recommended remanding the list back to the LTAC; that as they are, he would recommend
approval of some but not all. A question about the time needed for the options came up and Mr. Calhoun
said to remand the existing applications without re -opening the entire process, he feels the committee
could meet about mid-January, and within a week or two of that come back to Council for an
administrative report, and a few weeks after that come back for a motion consideration, or perhaps by
March 1St. There was also some talk about the same committee members reconsidering the same
applications and coming back with the same recommendations, but several Councilmembers voiced the
opinion that they feel the allocations would change since the Committee would know the feelings of the
Council. It was moved by Deputy Mayor Woodard and seconded, to send back to the Lodging Tax
Advisory Committee, all the allocations as presented, for them to reconsider and bring back as timely as
they can. Mayor Grafos invited public comment.
Tony Hansen: said a lot of time and energy went into this process, including all the binders of
information; and that now they will have to wait; she expressed concern about not funding timely and the
various economic impacts; said there is "great muscle" in Visit Spokane and of the many sports and other
events on the horizon; and suggested Council let them market those events in Spokane Valley; said the
hotels need the heads in beds, and she urged Council to see her perspective.
Bill Gothmann- went over the RCW's of what the funds can be used for; said the statutes don't say
lodging only or heads in beds only; and he feels the Council's goals meet the RCW's criteria.

Jodi Sander: said she is with Sterling Hospitality; said there have been specific numbers for the Quality
Inn due to the marketing efforts of Visit Spokane and the Sports Commission as well as the sports events
held at the HUB; said her hotel will continue as long as those organizations market our region; said she is
not worried about the upcoming new hotel in downtown Spokane.
Julie Cohn: General Manager of the Holiday Inn; said heads in beds are what replenishes the fund and
that the other organizations are the entities that continue to market us; said Washington State has no
tourism fund and that 70% of the groups at her hotel this year were sports groups.
Carla Husk: with the second Mexican Restaurant in Spokane Valley; said her numbers are directly
affected by the tourism of sports events and hotel marketing as those events bring in the people who eat in
the restaurants and shop in the mall; and said she hopes Council supports those organizations.
Cal Clausen: owner of Quality Inn, Sterling Hospitality; cautioned Council on overlooking or ignoring the
recommendations of the Committee as what is the level of quality of committee members if Council
doesn't listen to them; said there is a flaw in how the money is allocated within the committee; the state
legislature says the money is here to promote tourism in the community; he recommended Council adopt
what the committee recommends this year, and for next year perhaps grant first time applicants what they
want and if they don't produce tourism, then cut the allocation in half the following year, and continue
that process for two more years.
Jayne Singleton: with the Valley Museum; said she has been involved for ten years and has submitted an
application every year, and was on the committee for two years, but the dynamics are the same now as ten
years ago; the bigger issue is a need for vision and more facilities; and she suggested having a task force
to have venues out here; and to diversify.
Bill Crawford: also with the Valley Museum; said prior to our City's incorporation, about 40¢ of every
dollar went to fund things outside our City; said we knew if we incorporated, 100% of those funds could
stay here and that we could be a very profitable city with a surplus; and said we are indeed a very
profitable city and do have a surplus; said the idea of keeping valley money in the valley should be
applied to these funds as almost 80% of those funds are being sent to downtown Spokane, and Visit
Spokane and the Sports Commission; said he questions the value of that; said we get the overflow of
downtown hotel compression, but with 700 rooms downtown available 365 days a year, the majority of
that will stay downtown; said it is time to save that money and apply to some things here; said the plan is
to have the new proposed sports complex constructed right by the arena with limited parking, but that we
have all kinds of space and easy access; said we should get that sports complex out here; and that we need
a venue here to promote.
Herman Meier: member of the LTAC; said this is his second year on the committee and he applied to be
on the committee because of the need to apply more funds to valley applicants; said historically about
75% of the funding has gone to two applicants with a regional focus; that they do great work but times
have changed; said he would like to see those valley applicants fully funded with smaller amounts going
to the regional applicants; said it has been an uphill battle each year as the funding allocations were
strictly based on heads in beds, and if you didn't agree, they cut the funding; said it is time for a change
and to re -visit the allocation process. There were no further comments.
Vote by Acclamation: In Favor: Unanimous. Opposed: None. Motion carried.
NON -ACTION ITEMS:
3. Sullivan Road Corridor Study — Eric Guth, Sean Messner
Via his PowerPoint presentation, Mr. Messner explained that this study is just the beginning stage and is a
planning level to use as a building block for future studies and improvements; he discussed some of the

background of the study including Bigelow Gulch and North/South Corridor; Sullivan Road between I-90
and SR 290 as one of the busiest freight routes; the impact on the corridor expected by the completion of
Bigelow Gulch and of the City's desire to re-evaluate needs of the corridor and validate the impacts from
Bigelow Gulch and North/South Corridor projects. Mr. Messner explained some of the goals, and said the
purpose of this study is to develop a twenty -plus year corridor plan that addresses transportation,
community, and system preservation needs; he mentioned some of the key study elements and general
process, and briefly spoke about existing hourly and peak hour traffic conditions; and also noted the five-
year crash data summary, existing deficiencies, and travel forecast. Mr. Messner mentioned current
improvements, short-term planned improvements, longer term planned improvements, and funding
sources; and said the next steps are to prioritize for near and long-term improvements; identify and refine
the funding needs; prioritize the TIP (Transportation Improvement Program) projects with Council
direction; identify funding and partnering opportunities, and to coordinate the TIP and STIP (Statewide
Transportation Improvement Program).
Mayor Grafos called for a recess at 7:17 p.m.; he reconvened the meeting at 7:31 p.m.
4. State and Local Marijuana Laws; Consumption/Possession by Minors — Erik Lamb
Deputy City Attorney Lamb stated that tonight's report focuses on the state and local marijuana laws that
regulate the consumption or effects of consumption by minors in public places; he referenced Greater
Spokane Substance Abuse Council's Director Linda Thompson's September presentation, as well as Chief
VanLeuven's previous alcohol/drug enforcement presentation. He explained that there are different
definitions for consumption, use, and possession; and that there are no state laws prohibiting minors from
consuming or exhibiting the effects of having consumed marijuana, although it is possible the state may
consider and adopt regulations in the upcoming 2015 legislative session. Mr. Lamb said if our City were
to enact a new, minor in consumption law, the offense would be limited to a civil infraction, which means
a fine or ticket; he said the law would need to be changed at the state level in order for the offense to be
classified as a misdemeanor.
There was some discussion about penalties and optional community service and sending a stronger
message other than having just a citation as the penalty. If a minor were to receive a ticket,
Councilmember Wick said he would want to make sure the parent or guardian received notification of
that ticket; he also brought up the idea of having a drug school similar to the classes one could take when
issued a traffic ticket. Councilmember Hafner said some type of deterrent is needed, similar to smoking or
using alcohol while under age; he said there needs to be consequences or a penalty. City Attorney Driskell
said the age of the offender would be interesting as with other violations, those under eighteen years old
are referred to juvenile court; said he understands Council would like staff to investigate some alternative
penalties; and that it will take some time to examine and come up with some solutions, with the hope of
having something more productive long-term. Councilmember Hafner suggested checking with local high
school principals to hear about the types of problems they are experiencing and how they handle various
situations. Mayor Grafos said he is not in favor of pursuing this now as he prefers to wait to see what the
state comes up with; and said by waiting for a year or two we could better determine how big of a
problem this is; he said there are already consequences such as having the parent involved should
something occur at school. Councilmember Pace said the school takes care of situations that occur in the
school, but what about incidents outside the school; he said he feels there is still a need to send a message
and he prefers not waiting for the state; that there are laws concerning minors consuming alcohol and it
appears logical there should be laws for minors consuming marijuana. Mr. Jackson said there are various
opinions tonight, and he asked if this should more forward now, or let the discussion develop more on a
state level. Deputy Mayor Woodard and Councilmember Pace said they would like to see it move
forward, with Deputy Mayor Woodard adding that it will take the legislators time to come up with
regulations and he does not want to put this topic off for two to three years as he hears we have a growing
problem; and said it would be good to start the research.

Councilmember Higgins said the legislature hasn't done much and he feels they are not inclined to deal
with this; and said he likes the suggestion about getting the high school principals together to see what
kind of problem they are experiencing; and then re -visit the issue again later. Concerning consumption
and driving, Councilmember Wick said there is a need to protect the kids and other citizens from even
inhaling fumes and feels the issue needs to be considered now; said the principals would have one
perspective and law enforcement would have another. Councilmember Pace said if it is illegal for minors
to possess or consume alcohol, it should also be illegal for them to possess or consume marijuana.
Councilmember Hafner suggested using caution to make sure we get all the facts before we start
legislating what parents and kids can do. Mr. Jackson said staff will visit with the principals and report
back to Council via an informational council packet item. Mayor Grafos said it would be interesting to
see Liberty Lake's data of how many they arrested and of their cost in man-hours. Councilmember Hafner
said if Council concurs, he would be happy to schedule a meeting with the principals and to include our
legal department. There were no objections.
5. Legislative Agenda for Medical Marijuana — Erik Lamb, Mike Jackson
City Manager Jackson said our recently adopted moratorium is on any new medical marijuana or co-op
sales and any processing or sales that do not fall under the existing 502 regulations. Deputy City Attorney
Lamb noted that it does not impact any existing business or future business or any existing 502 business.
Mr. Jackson added that we are not trying to stop the legitimate uses of medical marijuana and are
proposing to combine it all under one system; he said the recreational marijuana system is highly
regulated while the medical marijuana system is mostly unregulated; he said staff would like to start to
formulate some language that could go into a bill. Mr. Jackson then referenced the attached "Marijuana
Comments" which were provided to Briahna Taylor, and he went over those "talking points." Mr.
Jackson stated that reconciling medical and recreational marijuana would do away with the collective
gardens and co-ops and would license the recreational outlets to sell medical marijuana; and said another
alternative is to have the medical marijuana sold through a pharmacy. Mr. Lamb brought up Talking
Point item #3 and #4 which includes the idea of charging the same fee and the same tax for all marijuana;
and if legislators feel there should be a tax exemption for medical marijuana, he mentioned the idea of
developing state license/registry for qualified physicians, and to create a tax exemption for marijuana for
medical purposes. Councilmember Pace said he would like to get a clear report as he heard that
pharmacies would be issuing a compound derived from marijuana; and Mr. Lamb said he also heard
about projects to remove certain aspects of the marijuana and put it into pill form; he said there are
varying reports as to the success of that, and said further research would be needed. Mr. Lamb noted there
is a significant tax of 25% on recreational marijuana so the exemption would be on that tax.
Councilmember Pace said he would like to see the medical marijuana go away and just have it handled by
the recreational store; that a "tax is a tax."
Deputy Mayor Woodard said he feels the tax exemption is not a concern, but prefers to tighten the
process by having in all in one store or pharmacy. Mr. Jackson and Mr. Lamb continued to discuss the
remaining "talking points" on the "Marijuana Comments" sheet included in the council packet. Mr.
Jackson said that consumption, whether smoked or vaped would also fall under the state's no smoking
guidelines, even if the club were private so that issue needs clarification; and Mr. Driskell added we need
the state to clarify the definition of "public place." Mr. Jackson said there was also some discussion to
allow more retail outlets and to allow them closer to parks; but said that he realizes this Council does not
want to lessen the requirements on buffer zones. Mr. Jackson said they will refine these "talking points"
and work with Consultant Briahna Taylor and the next time this comes to Council, he hopes to have some
draft legislative verbiage, and said AWC (Association of Washington Cities) is also working on this issue.
6. Minor Code Amendments to Dangerous Dog Regulations — Cary Driskell
City Attorney Driskell said that we contract with Spokane County Regional Animal Protection Services
(SCRAPS) for animal control and one of the terms of that contract requires us to adopt and update as
appropriate, regulations that are substantially similar to those adopted by the County; he said the purpose
Council Study Session 12-16-2014 Page 5 of 7
Approved by Council:
DRAFT
for the similar provisions is so SCRAPS officers won't have to learn and apply numerous enforcement
provisions for its various partners. Mr. Driskell said some minor modifications are necessary to ensure
our code accurately cites the County Code; adding that there were also some other proposed
"housekeeping" amendments. There were no objections to staff bringing this forward for a first reading in
January.
7. Comprehensive Plan, Public Participation Program — Lori Barlow
Director Hohman explained that we are required to complete the review of the Comprehensive Plan by
2017; that the current Plan is outdated so there is a need to get working on that as soon as possible; said
the GMA (Growth Management Act) requires each city establish a public participation program, which is
tonight's focus; said after staffs presentation, if there are questions or concerns, he would route them to
Consultant Tadas Kisielius then return to Council in the future; said there is a need to get out as much
information as possible to get the public involved; said the update process is a robust one and staff would
like to get through this without any appeal, so we will need to have a lot of participation and evaluate the
process as we go. Mr. Hohman mentioned the idea of the Citizen Amendment Request, a form for
comments and suggestions to incorporate into the program; said they will also have about four visioning
meetings; that they plan to work with the Chamber and the other organizations to get those Citizen
Amendment Request forms out to get the input to help build the process; he said this is a very aggressive
schedule with an amazing amount of work to be done, and we have to be poised to meet future needs in
the various markets in order to have appropriate zoning, how much and in the right place, and have a
parallel track for citizen requests to take to the Planning Commission then on to the Council, and then
back into the program; said the goal is to produce a draft by June, and he plans to have planning staff
assist in all these activities, so he will be looking at shifting some of the on -duty counter processes, and
mentioned the idea of staff having a cell phone so that someone is always available to render assistance.
Mr. Hohman stated that he doesn't want to shortchange the technical aspects of this; that they will need to
do the proper analysis for the community and stakeholders' needs to move the city forward in different
directions. In response to Councilmember Wick's comments about not wanting to lose any momentum
created at the permit center and that he would rather take two years to complete this review then
jeopardize that progress, Mr. Hohman said he would never do that; that they have made several gains in
the last several years and will continue to use the resources in the best manner possible.
Senior Planner Barlow went through the PowerPoint presentation explaining the update process, timeline,
statutory requirements, phases of the update process which include the visioning process, draft
comprehensive plan process, and final draft comprehensive plan process. She mentioned the dates this is
scheduled to go before the Planning Commission and the Council, and said that overall staff anticipates
about four Council meetings, four Planning Commission meetings, and as many as twelve planning staff
and consultant team meetings. Ms. Barlow noted that the next steps are to create a project webpage on the
City's website, that staff will conduct planning for Community Visioning, and hold community visioning
meetings. Councilmember Hafner said the process seems overwhelming and he asked if the schedule is
realistic keeping in mind staffs overall workload. Mr. Hohman said that at this stage staff feels the plan is
aggressive but do -able; but a lot depends on the level of requests and public participation, but with a
reasonable amount of requests, he feels they can stay on track. Mr. Jackson added that the idea of
visioning is not just to have a statement, but to get ideas of how the community wants the city and zoning
to develop, and what they want the city to look like in the future. Mayor Grafos said he feels the plan is
realistic.
8. Advance Agenda — Mayor Grafos
Deputy Mayor Woodard said he would like a future administrative report on our rules and ordinance for
e -cigarettes, including the age limits imposed. There were no objections to adding the topic to a future
agenda. Council also decided to cancel the December 30 Council meeting and have those currently
scheduled December 30 appointments made during the January 6 Council meeting.

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: First Reading Ordinance 15-001 amending SVMC 7.30 — Animal
Regulations
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: SVMC 7.30; Spokane County Code 5.04 and 5.12.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Adoption of regulations in 2003; amendments in 2007;
amendments in 2012; administrative report December 16, 2014.
BACKGROUND: The City contracts with Spokane County Regional Animal Protection Service
(SCRAPS) for animal control services within the City. One of the terms of that contract requires
the City to adopt and update as appropriate, regulations that are substantially similar to those
adopted by Spokane County. The "substantially similar" language allows for some minor variations
to account for our form of government or some local preference. The City has adopted by
reference portions of the County Code in their entirety, but has separate provisions specifically
relating to dangerous and potentially dangerous dogs under SVMC 7.30.035, 7.30.040, and
7.30.045.
The purpose for the requirement to have code provisions substantially similar is so SCRAPS
officers don't have to learn and apply numerous enforcement provisions for various partners.
In late 2013, Spokane County made a number of revisions to its relevant code provisions to reflect
that the regional partnership would be expanding under the new interlocal agreement, and to make
various updates to their code as appropriate. As a result, some minor modifications became
necessary to ensure SVMC 7.30 accurately cited to the County Code. This is seen on the
proposed amendment to SVMC 7.30.045(E). Additionally, the County added some requirements
for certain dog owners who are required by law to register a dog after it is declared to be
dangerous, which regulations are found under the proposed amendment to SVMC 7.30.045(A).
These additional requirements relate to humane treatment and living conditions for dogs deemed
dangerous.
The remaining proposed amendments are housekeeping, and reflect a particular way we reference
things in our Code. As we amend any part of our Code over time, our office has been also adding
similar changes. For example, rather than referencing partial Code section, the full reference is
provided, or consistent use of a terms like "shall" for mandatory actions, and similar types of
changes.
OPTIONS: (1) place on a future agenda for a second reading; (2) take other action as appropriate.
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: I move we advance Ordinance 15-001 amending
Spokane Valley Municipal Code Animal Regulations to a second reading.

GOVERNING LEGISLATION: RCW 70.94 (Clean Air Act), RCW 82.70 (Commute Trip
Reduction Incentives), RCW 47.01.440 (Goals to Reduce Annual Per Capita Vehicle Miles
Travelled), RCW 70.235.020 (Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reductions), Governor's Executive
Order 14-04 (Washington Carbon Pollution Reduction and Clean Energy Action)
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Interlocal Agreement C013-155 adopted on August
27, 2013; Ordinance No. 10-013 Adopting the City of Spokane Valley Commute Trip Reduction
Plan adopted on July 27, 2010
BACKGROUND: Council adopted the original Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) ordinance and
Plan in 2010. Subsequently, the City Manager approved the four year plan (2011-15). The
State Commute Trip Reduction Board adopts its own plan every four years and local
jurisdictions implement the new goals into their own plans based upon previous results from
CTR surveys. These plans are approved by the local Regional Transportation Councils and the
state CTR Board. This version is for 2015-2019 (mid -year to mid -year). The goals and
approach to the goals have been changed significantly, warranting approval by Council. Rather
than reducing drive -alone trips, the CTR plan will now set goals to increase the use of commute
alternatives. The new goal is to increase the use of commute alternatives by 6% while vehicle
miles travelled and greenhouse gas emissions goals will be an 18% reduction.
OPTIONS: With Council consensus, item will advance to Motion Consideration to adopt the
Plan on January 27 (or consent agenda if desired).
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Council Consensus to place a motion on the January
27 Consent Agenda.
BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: None. State supplied funds are transferred to Spokane
County as the City contracts with the County to provide Commute Trip Reduction services and
oversight over affected employers within the City of Spokane Valley. City CTR responsibilities
are provided by employees with existing responsibilities. CTR responsibilities are added
responsibilities.

Comprehensive planning & community goals
Governor's Executive Order 14-04 Washington Carbon Reduction and Clean Energy Action directs state
agencies to assist local governments to update their comprehensive plans to produce travel and land -
use patterns that maximize efficiency in movement of goods and people, and reduce greenhouse gas
emissions.
2 CTR Plan/Implementation Plan Update: 2015-2019
How does trip reduction support the goals of your community and comprehensive plan, and vice versa?
How will you further integrate trip reduction through the updating of your comprehensive plan (e.g.,
parking, land use)?
Creating and maintaining an expedient transportation system is one of the main goals of the City's
comprehensive plan. Trip reduction reduces the need for costly infrastructure expansion and allows tax
dollars to be more effectively spent on a diverse transportation system with a variety of options that is
less costly to maintain. Additionally, trip reduction results in less pollution, creating a healthier
environment for our public.
Updates to the comprehensive plan are guided by policies. Crucial to land use development and
management is having high-capacity transportation corridors, public transportation services, mixed-use
design, and pedestrian friendly neighborhoods that all promote trip reduction.
Following is a summary of elements of the City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan that pursue the
use of commute alternatives.
Policy Topic 5 — Transportation
Policies
5. Local jurisdictions shall develop and adopt land use plans that have been coordinated through the
Spokane Regional Transportation Council (SRTC) to ensure that they preserve and enhance the regional
transportation system. These plans may include high-capacity transportation corridors and shall fulfill air
quality conformity and financial requirements of Federal Transportation Laws and Regulations, the Clean
Air Act Amendments of 1990, and the GMA.
6. Local jurisdictions shall designate within land use plans areas that can support public transportation
services. These areas shall include existing as well as new development. Each jurisdiction's land use plan,
the regional transportation plan and the Spokane Transit Authority's (STA) Long Range Transit Plan shall
support, complement and be consistent with each other.
11. Each jurisdiction shall address land use designations and site design requirements that are
supportive of and compatible with public transportation, for example:
a. pedestrian -scale neighborhoods and activity centers;
b. mixed-use development; and
c. pedestrian friendly and non -motorized design.
A return to mixed-use development will also contribute to fewer trips and fewer miles traveled as
demonstrated in Chapter 2.5.4
2.5.4 Mixed-use
The concept of "Mixed-use" has been around for centuries. Prior to the advent of the automobile and
the proliferation of the road and highway system, Mixed-use was a predominant urban form. The
CTR Plan/Implementation Plan Update: 2015-2019
"rediscovery" of this development type may be due in part to the negative impacts of sprawl, which
have resulted in traffic congestion, decline in air quality, and inefficient use of resources and
infrastructure. Mixed-use development has several potential benefits:
• Land and infrastructure resources are used more efficiently;
• Pedestrian -friendly neighborhoods;
• Jobs are located near housing;
• Opportunities to revitalize commercial corridors;
• Opportunities for infill residential development (primarily in corridors);
• Encourage new housing and innovative retail that is less auto dependent; and
• Compatibility with existing transit access along local corridors.
The design of the urban environment as detailed in Chapter 2.7, also places a priority on elements that
contribute to trip reduction, including:
• Integration and linking of neighborhoods including bicycle and pedestrian facilities;
• The effect of traffic patterns and parking on neighborhood character.
Chapter 2.9 details the connection between land use planning and transportation and how the City can
benefit from cultivating alternative forms of transportation and mitigating the impact of the automobile.
2.9.1 Street Connectivity
Street design can have a significant impact on community development. It is important that
neighborhoods be connected is such a manner that cars, bicycles and pedestrians can pass with ease
from one neighborhood to an adjacent neighborhood via collectors and arterials. Such a pattern
promotes a sense of community.
All new developments should give special consideration to emergency access routes.
2.9.2 Traffic Calming
Traffic calming can be defined as measures that physically alter the operational characteristics of the
roadway in an attempt to slow down traffic and reduce the negative effects of the automobile. The
theory behind traffic calming is that roads should be multiuse spaces encouraging social links within a
community and the harmonious interaction of various modes of travel (i.e., walking, cycling, auto,
transit).
The following Land Use Goal and Policies align with commute trip reduction goals.
LUP-1.4 Encourage the development of transportation routes and facilities to serve residential
neighborhoods. Special attention should be given to pedestrian circulation.
LUP-2.3 Encourage the development of transportation routes and facilities to serve residential

• Multi -story buildings oriented to the street rather than parking lots; and
• Parking space located behind or to the side of buildings or in parking structures.
LUP-10.3 Encourage shared -use parking, pedestrian access and transit incentive programs in industrial
development projects.
LUP-16.1 Encourage new developments, including multifamily projects, to be arranged in a pattern of
connecting streets and blocks to allow people to safely get around easily by foot, bicycle, bus, or car.
LUP-16.2 Develop street, pedestrian path and bike path standards that contribute to a system of fully
connected routes.
LUP-16.4 Connect neighborhood services, public open space and parks with multi -modal paths.
Lastly, the City has adopted a Bike and Pedestrian Master Program (Attached) and created a connected
system of bikeways and sidewalks/paths to allow bike riders and pedestrians to move easily about the
City.
Land use and transportation conditions
How do existing and future anticipated land -use and transportation conditions affect CTR worksites?
The City of Spokane Valley has identified several CTR related projects as a priority in the upcoming years.
Council has adopted the City's Six Year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) 2015-2019 which
identifies eight projects that will provide infrastructure improvements including sidewalks, bike lanes,
multi -use paths, and pedestrian -friendly traffic signals. Six of these projects are related entirely to the
promotion of alternative transportation modes. The cost of these projects is $4,752,000. Two other
projects are street projects that will add sidewalks and bike lanes to existing streets. The estimated
related CTR cost of these two projects is $1,163,400.
Financial plan
What are the anticipated funding sources and amounts for local trip reduction, including grants and
local funding?
The CTR program in the City of Spokane Valley is administered by Spokane County through an inter -local
agreement. State funding is allocated and based on the approved state budget and on how many
affected worksites are in the City of Spokane Valley. In addition, Spokane County secures CMAQgrants
to help enhance and maintain the CTR program and will continue to apply for the grants when available,

City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
CHAPTER 11- BIKE AND PEDESTRIAN ELEMENT
11.0 Introduction
11.0.1 Why Plan for Bicycling and Walking?
Bicycling in urban areas has grown dramatically in the last decade due to factors such as healthier
lifestyles, rising fuel costs and a desire to lessen impacts on the environment. By creating safe
places to ride, the development of new facility types such as bike lanes, bicycle friendly routes, and
shared use paths have enabled more people to use bike transportation. In addition, as the
importance of a healthy lifestyle has grown, the desire to incorporate exercise through walking has
also grown. As a basic form of mobility, virtually all trips—regardless of mode—start and end with
walking.
The City of Spokane Valley has the essential elements to create a great place to bike and walk.
Most streets connect, congestion is minimal, the terrain is flat, and weather is suitable many
months of the year. For these reasons, biking and walking is a great way to get around the City.
Where there are close links between home and destinations (such as school, work, and shops)
walking and cycling can be the preferred and efficient way to move from place to place.
Promoting walking and bicycling can help ease congestion, address weight and health issues and
enhance the livability and economic vitality of our community. They help promote interaction
between neighbors, strengthen connection to the community, provide `eyes -on -the -street' security,
and support local retail activity. By comparison, streets and places where people are not present
often feel uncomfortable and barren. Cities around the nation with the most positive economic
growth and solid resources from tourism, general retail and other sources are places where people
can come and feel comfortable.
11.0.2 Overview
As an element of the City of Spokane Valley's Comprehensive Plan, this chapter is organized to
present background data concerning bike and pedestrian facilities (Section 11.1), applicable
federal, state and local codes relating to the topic (section 11.2), and a set of goals and objectives
(section 11.3). Section 11.4, contains city-wide bike and pedestrian facility improvements, potential
education, enforcement and evaluation tools. As a policy document, this chapter will guide
decisions regarding multi -modal transportation facilities. As an implementation tool, it will detail
priorities and standards for development.
11.0.3 Vision Statements
To increase opportunities for non -motorized transportation that improve the connectivity, safety,
convenience and attractiveness of the pedestrian and bicycle network in the City of Spokane
Valley.
To identify and prioritize facility recommendations based on thorough data collection and
analysis, community visioning, regional collaboration, engineering assessment and preliminary
cost estimates.
11.0.4 Process
Several steps were involved in creating the Bike and Pedestrian Master Program.
a. Data Collection
A comprehensive field inventory of existing bicycle and pedestrian facilities was conducted,
identifying constraints and opportunities for improvements. The City coordinated with
adjacent jurisdictions as well as bike, pedestrian and health advocates, property owners
and other stakeholders. This step incorporated a thorough review of the existing adopted
Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan, including a review of the bike facility map, goals and
policies related to bike and walking activity, as well as a review of recently approved similar
Adopted 10-25-2011 (Updated 07-24-2013) Chapter 11 — Bike and Pedestrian Master Program

City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
plans in the region. Accident data and funding sources for potential future projects were
also gathered. A sidewalk inventory completed by students at Washington State University
(WSU) was added to the City's GIS system.
b. Public Outreach
This Bike and Pedestrian Master Program (BPMP) was created over a year and a half
period with participation from a diverse group of citizens, residents and interested parties.
A contact database was created to ensure interested parties were notified throughout the
development of the plan. Over 900 contacts were included within five months of initiation.
The first in a series of BPMP workshops was held on June 16, 2010. A diverse group
voiced opinions and concerns on bicycling and walking in the City. Through an interactive
exercise, the participants identified destinations, obstacles, and preferred routes for bike
and pedestrian facilities. An on-line survey was made available through the City's web
page. Over 350 responses were received from the online survey, indicating a significant
level of interest. The short, non -statistical survey gathered additional insight into the biking
and walking experience in Spokane Valley and into desired routes and destinations.
c. Connectivity Assessment and Route Recommendations
From the gathered data, a preliminary connection assessment and potential route
recommendations were developed. Details of existing rights-of-way, pavement width,
driveway approaches and traffic counts were gathered.
d. Continued Public Outreach
A second community workshop was held on September 19, 2010 to present preliminary
bike and pedestrian routes and connections based on the information gathered at the first
workshop and through the on-line survey. The Spokane Regional Health District presented
information on health impacts associated with alternative modes of transportation. By
prioritizing potential projects, participants helped create a vision of a comprehensive bike
and pedestrian network.
The workshops were publicized online, at schools, bike shops and community facilities
throughout the City. In addition, staff prepared newsletters and maintained a BPMP page
on the City of Spokane Valley website. Quarterly updates were presented to the City
Council as part of the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) status
reports.
e. Safety Analysis and Prioritization of Improvements
A portion of money from the City's EECBG funded an engineering consultant to review the
proposed routes for safety, cost and prioritizations. This engineering assessment provides
technical guidance to help ensure that proposed bike and pedestrian facilities, such as bike
lanes on arterials or shared use paths in neighborhoods, are safe, functional, and
appropriate for the set route.
f. Plan Refinement, Review and Adoption
Desired routes were refined based on technical input from the consultant. Classifications
for both bicycle and pedestrian facilities were reviewed based on the American Association
of State Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) guidelines and industry standards.
Comprehensive Plan text, maps and exhibits were prepared. Priorities and preliminary
implementation schedules were included. Additional workshops were held to gather input
on the draft BPMP document. Finally, the BPMP was presented to both the Planning
Commission and the City Council.
11.0.5 Bike and Pedestrian Master Plan Technical Advisory Group
Developing the BPMP resulted in partnerships and collaboration between the City, adjoining
jurisdictions and many other interested agencies and individuals. Representatives from many of
these groups served on the Bike and Pedestrian Technical Advisory Group (BPTAG). The BPTAG
Adopted 10-25-2011 (Updated 07-24-2013) Chapter 11 — Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Page 2 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
met several times to review and make recommendations on potential routes, facilities and
implementation strategies.
11.0.6 Partnerships
Preparation of the BPMP has involved a wide range of people and agencies. Partnerships and
collaboration contributes to the quality and integrity of the program. Maintaining these partnerships
will contribute toward successful implementation and realization of shared goals.
a. Spokane Regional Health District
The Spokane Regional Health District (SRHD) serves as the area's public health leader
and partner in protecting and improving the health of the community. The Health District's
Physical Activity program works with community coalitions, elected officials, citizen groups
and other organizations to encourage policies that make it easier for people to be physically
active. An analysis of existing social, economic and health statistics of the residents of the
City of Spokane Valley was prepared by the SRHD epidemiologist. The role of SRHD was
to bring awareness of the positive health impact bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure can
have on a community.
b. School Districts and Safe Routes to School
Safe Routes to School is a national program aimed at enabling community leaders, schools
and parents across the country to improve safety and encourage more children to be active
by safely walking and bicycling to school. In the process, work associated with Safe
Routes to School contributes to reducing traffic congestion, improving physical health, and
making communities more livable overall. The SRHD along with the City, Bicycle Alliance
of Washington, Central Valley School District, East Valley School District, and West Valley
School District worked diligently through the 2010/2011 school year to prepare walking
audits of all elementary and middle schools. Walking audits are detailed surveys of streets
and sidewalks within a one -mile radius surrounding a school using the Safe Walk and Bike
Routes: A Guide for Planning and Improving Walk and Bike to School Options for Students
(site: WSDOT and WTSC 2010). Results of the audits are used to prepare preferred
walking routes for students and to identify and prioritize street and sidewalk safety projects.
Continued coordinated efforts between school districts, SRHD and the City will aid in the
successful implementation of safe routes for pedestrians of all ages.
c. Spokane Transit Authority
The Spokane Transit Authority (STA) is a regional public transportation agency providing a
variety of transportation options, including bus service to the City of Spokane Valley. The
transit system effectively expands the area that pedestrians are able to access for daily
services and activities. STA's database of pedestrian paths throughout its service area
was used as base data for the City's sidewalk inventory, gap analysis and recommended
pedestrian network. The data identified barriers to people using the sidewalk network to
access the bus system.
d. Bicycle Alliance of Washington
The Bicycle Alliance of Washington is a non-profit organization advocating for bicyclists and
bike -friendly communities throughout Washington. The Alliance works toward increasing
the percentage of all types of bicycle riders and increasing funding available for inclusive,
non -motorized transportation facilities. The Alliance works closely with Safe Routes to
School programs and serves as a clearinghouse for bicycle education and advocacy.
e. Washington State University
In 2007, Washington State University Interdisciplinary Design Institute (WSU) created a
pedestrian model by mapping pedestrian networks throughout Spokane Transit Authority's
service area, identifying barriers such as the absence of sidewalks and curb ramps, and
non -ADA compliant variations in the surface condition, height, width, and slope of
Adopted 10-25-2011 (Updated 07-24-2013) Chapter 11 — Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Page 3 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
pedestrian facilities. The data has been used to identify existing routes and to determine
sidewalk infill priorities. By partnering with the City, data developed through the Bike and
Pedestrian Master Program will be used to update the WSU pedestrian network model. In
turn, the model will be useful in prioritizing pedestrian improvements in an effort to increase
safety throughout the City.
f. Spokane Regional Transportation Council
The Spokane Regional Transportation Council (SRTC) is the local metropolitan planning
organization encouraging coordination and collaboration between planning and
transportation departments throughout the region. SRTC maintains the Transportation
Improvement Program, a three-year list of state and federally -funded transportation
projects, and the Metropolitan Transportation Plan in Spokane County, a document
addressing transportation needs for the next 20 years. SRTC recognizes that walking and
bicycling are simple and efficient modes of travel that can increase public transit ridership.
Coordination between the City and SRTC will create opportunities to implement effective
non -motorized projects and programs.
11.1 Planning Context
The Bike and Pedestrian Element of the Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan expands on the
Transportation Element to focus on non -motorized transportation. Also referred to as the Bike and
Pedestrian Master Program, this element is consistent with the overall Comprehensive Plan,
specifically the Land Use, Transportation, Parks and Recreation and Neighborhood Elements.
11.1.1 GMA
The Washington Growth Management Act (GMA), the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) and the
Washington Administrative Code (WAC) provide for the inclusion of non -motorized transportation
elements in comprehensive plans. Bike and pedestrian planning is sometimes included in the land
use, transportation or recreation elements. Using a separate element to address opportunities and
constraints specific to these non -motorized forms of transportation allows the City of Spokane
Valley to focus on improvements that enhance the livability and economic vitality of our community.
11.1.2 County -Wide Planning Policies
County Wide Planning Policies (CWPP) provide a policy framework for the County and its
respective cities. Specifically items 10 and 16 under Policy Topic 5 — Transportation, state:
10. Each jurisdiction should coordinate its housing and transportation strategies to support
existing, or develop new, public multimodal transportation systems.
16. Each jurisdiction shall address energy consumption/conservation by:
a. Designing transportation improvements for alternatives to the single -occupant vehicle;
b. Locating and adopting design standards for new development to support pedestrian or
non -motorized travel;
c. Providing regulatory and financial incentives to promote efforts of the public and private
sector to conserve energy; and
d. Reducing the number of vehicle miles traveled and number of vehicle trips.
As described in Section 11.0.6 above, the SRTC is the Metropolitan Planning Organization for the
Spokane region. SRTC maintains the Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP), a 20 -year strategy
to meet the transportation needs of the region. MTP goals related to non -motorized transportation
include:
• Establishing a bicycle and pedestrian program that will increase the mode -share of people
walking and bicycling as a means of transportation over the next 20 years;
• Eliminating barriers that discourage or prohibit pedestrian or bicycle access;
Adopted 10-25-2011 (Updated 07-24-2013) Chapter 11 — Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Page 4 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
• Identifying the needs and gaps in the regional bicycle and pedestrian system; and
• Encouraging connections between residential areas and adjacent land uses to enhance
awareness and cooperation between all roadway users.
The MTP facilitated the creation of three complementary products: the Spokane Regional Bike Plan
(adopted in 2008); the Spokane Regional Pedestrian Plan (adopted in 2009) and the SmartRoutes
program. All of these were collaborative efforts with SRTC, the Spokane Regional Health District,
the Active Transportation Technical Committee (including representatives from the City of Spokane
Valley and other cities and towns) and a citizen -based steering committee. Each of these
documents encourages jurisdictions to tailor the regional plans to their own needs and to use them
for guidance to develop appropriate bicycle and pedestrian projects that traverse jurisdictional lines.
11.2 Existing Setting
11.2.1 Comprehensive Plan
The City of Spokane Valley's Comprehensive Plan includes goals and policies to guide
development within the City. All elements within the Comprehensive Plan must be internally
consistent. Goals found within other elements encourage the development and implementation of
a bike and pedestrian system within the City. The following are from the Land Use, Transportation,
Natural Environment and the Parks and Recreation elements:
Land Use - Goal LUG -7
Provide a balanced transportation network that accommodates public transportation, high
occupancy vehicles, pedestrians, bicyclists, automobiles and integrated parking.
Transportation - Goal TG -9
Enhance community livability and transportation by encouraging a connected system of pedestrian
and bicycle ways that is integrated into a coordinated regional network.
Natural Environment - Goal NEG -20
Support regional efforts to improve air quality.
Parks and Recreation - Goal PRG -4
Based upon budgetary resources, promote, develop, operate and maintain a comprehensive
trail/bicycle system within Spokane Valley that provides non -motorized travel (walking, bicycling,
skating, and horseback riding) to meet city residents recreation, fitness and commuting needs.
11.2.2 Current Activity
a. Collision Data
The Washington State Department of Transportation maintains records of pedestrian and
bicycle collision data. Between 2003 (incorporation) and 2010, there were six fatalities and
295 serious or disabling injuries in Spokane Valley associated with pedestrian and bicycle
collisions. On average, there are 41 pedestrian and bicycle collisions per year. The
majority of the collisions occurred on major arterials including Argonne, Pines and Sullivan
Roads. It is estimated that many bicycle and pedestrian collisions have happened but have
not been reported.
b. Citizen Input
To ensure the bike and pedestrian system reflects the community's desires, an extensive
outreach component was built into the process. As described in the previous section, this
process included workshops and an on-line survey. The results showed that a majority of
respondents walk or bicycle for exercise/health, enjoyment, or to commute to work/school.
When asked what prevents a person from biking or walking, an overwhelming 70% of the

respondents said it was due to the lack of facilities. The results showed the community's
desire to see improved bike and pedestrian facilities in or around the following six routes:
1. Sprague Avenue
2. Pines Road
3. 32nd Ave / Dishman Mica
4. Argonne / Mullan corridor
5. Valleyway Avenue (as a bicycle friendly route)
6. Sullivan Road
Many mentioned the need for more north/south connections to the Centennial Trail. The
preferred facilities were bike lanes and shared use paths. The graphs below illustrate the
respondent's views.

c. Health Data
As part of the initial community workshops, the SRHD prepared information correlating
active lifestyles, including bicycle and pedestrian commutes, to improved health.
Sedentary lifestyles can contribute to obesity. Obesity can be defined as a person with a
body mass index of 30 or greater. Obesity can contribute to illnesses including heart
disease and strokes, high blood pressure, osteoarthritis, diabetes and some forms of
cancer.
Lack of physical activity increases health risks, resulting in increased costs for medical
care, worker compensation and lost productivity. Obesity and lack of activity contribute to
chronic diseases including cancer, heart and respiratory disease. The top five causes of
death in Spokane Valley are shown below:
Literature reviews have shown that urban design and land use policies creating
opportunities for physical activity within communities have been effective and are
considered best practices for increasing a community's health and reducing obesity.
More than half of Spokane County's carbon monoxide emissions are from vehicle sources.
Reducing vehicle trips by accommodating and encouraging active transportation can
positively impacts health by improving air quality.
SRHD also considers socio-economic factors as they relate to health. A link exists
between education, poverty, and mobility choices. In Spokane Valley, between 2004 and
2008, 37.4 percent of the population had less than a high school diploma or GED. The
amount of education a person achieves influences their ability to earn a certain standard of
living. Between 2004 and 2008, 43.9 percent of the City's population was at or below the
200 percent federal poverty level. That is more than twice the national average. A
substantial percentage of the population either cannot afford automobile transportation, or
affording it is a financial hardship. For these people, in addition to the young in age and the
older population, getting around by other alternatives such as walking, bicycling or transit is
a necessity.

City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
11.2.3 Existing Bicycle System
Though developed as a compilation of rural townships over time, the City of Spokane Valley has a
strong grid pattern of streets. The placement of principal and minor arterials, collectors and local
access streets overlaid on the relatively flat topography provides an excellent base for non -
motorized transportation.
a. Types of Bicycle Users
There are many types of bicyclists with varying skills and levels of comfort in terms of riding
in traffic. While bicyclists can be loosely categorized as experienced adult, casual adult and
child cyclists, there are many levels of cycling competency and just as many opinions as to
what makes an ideal bike route. Some experienced cyclists ride on busy arterial streets
regardless of bicycle facilities. Some cyclists will ride on busy roads only if bike lanes are
provided. Some will use the lanes only if parallel residential roads are unavailable.
b. Existing Bicycle Facilities
A combination of striped bike lanes, posted bicycle friendly routes and separated bike
facilities are found throughout the City. In addition, other streets act as informal routes,
favored by bicycle commuters as safe and convenient alternatives to bike ways with heavy
automobile traffic.
The following different types of bicycle facilities, as defined by the American Association of
State and Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) are found throughout Spokane
Valley:
i. Shared Use Path: Facilities on separated right-of-way and with minimal cross flow by
motor vehicles. Minimum width is six feet; optimal width is ten feet. Shared use paths
may also be used by pedestrians, skaters, wheelchair users, joggers and other non -
motorized users.
• The Centennial Trail is an example of a shared use path in the City. With
connections through adjacent jurisdictions, it is an important regional recreational
and commuting facility. Other shared use paths exist along the south side of
Appleway Avenue from Sprague Avenue to the eastern City boundary and on
Sullivan Road, from Centennial Trail to just south of Trent Road.
ii. Bike Lanes: A portion of a roadway designated by striping, signing and pavement
markings for the preferential or exclusive use by bicyclists. The required width of a bike
lane on a given street varies based on several factors, such as existence of a gutter
and curb. Parking and traffic volume must be considered as well. AASHTO and SRTC
(Spokane Regional Transportation Council) guidelines recommend that for a street
without gutter or curb, the minimum width of the bike lane should be four feet. If the
street includes curb and gutter, the minimum width should be five feet. In situations
where parking is permitted without any striping or stalls, AASHTO guidelines
recommend an 11 -foot bike lane width. Bicycle lanes improve conditions for cyclists of
all abilities within a given corridor and encourage increased bicycle use by providing a
greater degree of comfort and perceived safety for less skilled cyclists.
• Striped bicycle lanes are located along several arterials, including 32nd Avenue,
portions of Broadway, Evergreen Road, Mission Road, Sprague Avenue and 16th
Avenue. Mirabeau Parkway from Pines Road to Indiana Avenue and Indiana
Avenue from Mirabeau to Evergreen Road are also improved with bike lanes.
iii. Signed Shared Roadway: Signed lane allowing both vehicular and bicycle traffic.
Minimum width is 14 feet. Signed shared roadways indicate to cyclists that there are
particular advantages to using these routes compared to alternate routes.
• In the City of Spokane Valley, signed shared roadways exist on 4th Avenue from
University to Conklin, and on Trent from Flora to the eastern city boundary.

Page 10 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
iv. Shared Roadway: Lane allowing both vehicular and bicycle traffic. No signing is
involved.
• All public streets in the City of Spokane Valley can be defined as shared roadways.
Existing bike facilities in the City of Spokane Valley are shown in Map 11.1. Other bicycle
facilities found throughout the City include bicycle parking facilities at some commercial,
public and office facilities and bicycle racks on transit vehicles.
c. System Deficiencies
Barriers surrounding both recreation and commuting bicycle activity throughout the City
include crossing Interstate 90, railroad tracks, and the Spokane River. Currently, principal
arterials cross these barriers. However, the limited space for bike facilities on these
arterials plus the traffic volume hinders the safety and comfort for many riders. This
impacts those trying to access commercial and employment centers in the north part of the
City as well as those trying to access the Centennial Trail. Other factors impacting bicycle
activity include impaired sight distances, limited street connectivity, cyclist and motorist
behaviors, lack of way -finding signs, and maintenance issues.
11.2.4 Existing Pedestrian System
a. Types of Pedestrians
For trips of a certain length, walking is a simple affordable way to get around. Spokane
Valley, with relatively flat terrain and a predominately grid street pattern, has great
opportunities for pedestrians of all kinds. People choose to walk for many reasons
including recreation and necessity. Pedestrians include adults, children, seniors, people
without cars and people with disabilities. Those with higher levels of transportation choice,
i.e. those specifically able to afford cars and of driving age, make use of autos for most
trips. This situation is not so much a reflection of popular transportation preferences but of
the many auto -dominated land use and transportation decisions that created present day
Spokane Valley. Citizens, including those driving cars as well as seniors, youth and people
with disabilities, need safety, connectivity and accessibility.
b. Existing Pedestrian Facilities
Sidewalk inventories were performed by City staff as part of the analyses conducted for the
Bike and Pedestrian Master Program and the American with Disabilities Act transition plan.
Also, in association with the Safe Routes to School program, volunteers from all elementary
and middle schools in the City conducted walking audits to determine potential routes to
their schools and to identify missing sidewalk segments, potential pedestrian conflicts and
existing safe haven areas for students.
The existing pedestrian system in Spokane Valley includes sidewalks, shared use paths,
wide shoulders on rural roads and residential streets. Generally, sidewalks exist on most of
the existing arterials and range in width from three to six feet. In addition, most streets
surrounding elementary, middle and high school facilities are improved with sidewalks.
Several shared -use paths, intended for all types of non -motorized transportation, are
located throughout the City (see section on existing bicycle facilities above). Map 11.3
shows locations of existing sidewalk facilities.
Other infrastructure associated with pedestrian activity includes curb ramps, intersection
markings, cross walks with and without associated signals, benches and shelters for transit
facilities, and street trees.
c. System Deficiencies:
For the most part, sidewalks on arterials are constructed adjacent to the curb and lanes
where cars are traveling in excess of 30 and 40 miles per hour, impacting pedestrian
comfort and safety. In addition, while current development standards require separated
sidewalks, there are portions where sidewalks were not built with initial street construction.
Adopted 10-25-2011 (Updated 07-24-2013) Chapter 11 — Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Page 11 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
Other factors making walking difficult include crosswalk issues on high-volume streets,
obstructions such as power poles and utility boxes in the sidewalk, outdated or non-existent
curb ramps, poor lighting, limited facilities at transit stops, and maintenance issues.
11.3 Goals and Policies
Spokane Valley is intended to become a bicycle and pedestrian friendly City, where bicycling and
walking are encouraged and promoted as safe and convenient forms of transportation and
recreation. Goals help guide actions towards fulfilling this vision. Policies are more specific
statements relating to implementing measures that will achieve the goals.
As with many cities, Spokane Valley has limited funds with which to pursue its bike and pedestrian
goals. Focused and prioritized resources will aid the City in having a positive impact on non -
motorized transportation infrastructure. The City will strive to make strategic investments of the
limited resources available and where possible, leverage resources in cooperation with other
governmental and private agencies.
The following goals and policies are consistent with the goals and policies of other chapters of the
Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan, with the Countywide Planning Policies and the Growth
Management Act.

public transit access to critical services for these citizens and pedestrian routes
that enable children to safely walk to school in these neighborhoods.
11.4 Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
11.4.1 Engineering Improvements
a. Overall Bicycle and Pedestrian Network
The City of Spokane Valley Bike and Pedestrian Master Program is based on field data,
citizen input and engineering analysis of constraints and opportunities for bicycle and
pedestrian facilities. It should be noted that this is a master program, not a detailed
feasibility analysis. As such, exact routing and designations could be modified during the
course of more detailed studies of specific projects. The recommended bikeway network is
shown in Map 11.2 and recommended pedestrian network is shown in Map 11.4. Map 11.5
shows the recommended travel ways for the schools that participated in the safe routes to
school exercise.
b. Possible Engineering Solutions
The specific types of bike and pedestrian treatments that are applied to roads vary
depending on the existing right-of-way, traffic counts, traffic speeds, roadway cross
sections, number of approaches or driveways on the street and topography. A brief
description of bicycle treatments is provided below. More specific design guidelines
including the complete toolbox and typical cross section layouts are found in Appendix 2:
Facility Design Guidelines.
i. Bicycle Friendly Routes — Bicycle friendly routes are roadways with low speeds and low
volumes. The treatments recommended for bicycle routes should strive to improve
through movements for bicyclists and other non -motorized modes. Bicycle route
treatments are ideal on two-lane roadways where traffic volume is less than 3,000
vehicles per day (although less than 1,500 vehicles per day is preferred) and posted
speeds of 25 miles per hour or less. See Appendix 2 for specific bicycle friendly route
treatments and cross sections.
ii. Bicycle Lanes - Bicycle lanes designate an exclusive part of the roadway (typically on
the right side of the roadway) to be used by bicyclists only. A bike lane is typically
located between the right most traffic lane and the curb or on street parking area. A
bicycle lane should be considered on roadways with traffic volumes greater than 3,000
vehicles per day or posted speeds greater than 25 miles per hour. Appendix 2 includes
a variety of bicycle lane treatments from a standard bike lane to buffered bike lanes
and climbing lanes. The appendix also includes cross sections showing how bike lanes
could be applied to existing City roadways.
iii. Cycle Tracks - A cycle track is an exclusive bike facility separated from vehicle traffic
and the sidewalk, and is intended to provide improved comfort and safety for the
bicyclist as compared to an on -street bike lane. The cycle track can be separated from
vehicle traffic using a variety of treatments (curbs, planter strips, on -street parking,
pavement markings, or other options). In addition, the cycle track should be clearly
defined from sidewalks (grade separated, pavement markings, or an alternate clear
indication) to prevent bicycle conflicts with pedestrians. A cycle track requires a wider
cross section than a typical bike lane, but should be considered on roadways where
bicyclists may not feel comfortable biking directly adjacent to vehicle traffic.
Adopted 10-25-2011 (Updated 07-24-2013) Chapter 11 — Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Page 14 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
iv. Shared Use Paths — Shared use paths are physically separated from the roadway and
are intended for use by pedestrians, bicyclists, runners and other non -motorized
users. Shared use paths supplement bike lanes, bicycle friendly routes and sidewalks
and connect to these other facilities at ends of the path as well as midway, depending
on the length and location. The number of driveways and crossings should be
minimized when designing a shared use path. Generally, if there are more than eight
crossings per mile, an on -street facility should be considered instead.
v. Bicycle Intersection Treatments - Intersection treatments improve the safety of
bicyclists through an intersection (typically a signalized intersection). Depending on the
characteristics of the cross streets (traffic and bicycle volumes, traffic and bicycle
speeds, type of bicycle facility, number of vehicles and/or bikes turning, visibility,
surrounding land use, and other factors) a range of treatments may be applicable.
Appendix 2 provides specific intersection treatment guidelines and criteria.
vi. Mid -Block Crossing Treatments - Mid -block crossings can be dangerous for bicyclists
because drivers are not typically expecting a crossing at a non -intersection location.
The need for a mid -block crossing may arise if two bicycle facilities are off -set or if a
trail intersects a roadway at mid -block. In these situations, mid -block crossing
treatments can be applied to improve the safety.
vii. Wayfinding - Wayfinding is meant to be used by bicyclists while en route to
communicate directions, distance and sometimes expected travel time to a particular
destination. Wayfinding is typically accomplished through the use of signs
supplemented at times with pavement markings. Wayfinding can be beneficial to all
types of bicycle facilities.
viii. Prioritization Criteria — Bicycle Network
The overall bicycle and pedestrian networks will be implemented over time. The
criteria contained in Appendix 1 has been used to determine where to focus available
funding and staff time to implement bicycle facility projects. Priority is given to those
projects anticipated to serve the most number of people and to contribute to overall
safety.
ix. Prioritization Criteria — Pedestrian Network
The criteria contained in Appendix 1 was used to determine where to focus available
funding and staff time to implement pedestrian facility projects. Priority is given to
those projects anticipated to serve the most number of people and to contribute to
overall safety.
x. Network Improvements
Facility improvements, summarized in Appendix 1, are categorized as short-term and
long-term projects based on need and ease of implementation.
11.4.2 Ancillary Facilities
Ancillary facilities add to the safety and comfort of using walking and bicycling as modes of
transportation. Ancillary facilities can include bicycle parking, showers and lockers, transit features
and bicycle and pedestrian maps. Crosswalk design can aid in increasing visibility through the use
of specific striping patterns and lights. The following methods address ancillary features:
a. Pedestrian Features: Encourage that pedestrian crossing facilities, including
crosswalks and signage, alert both motorists and pedestrians to the presence of the
facility. Work with developers and utilities to remove existing hazards such as light
poles and utility boxes from the sidewalk. Where appropriate, constrain roadway width
Adopted 10-25-2011 (Updated 07-24-2013) Chapter 11 — Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Page 15 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
with bulb -outs and tighter right turns at intersections to slow vehicles as they approach
areas with high pedestrian volumes. Provide sidewalks or pedestrian paths between
neighborhoods and commercial or public destinations where appropriate. Encourage
clearly identified safe walking paths between public sidewalks and commercial
buildings.
b. Bicycle Parking: Continue to require bicycle racks for new development. Consider
developing standards for the size of bicycle parking spaces, clearance, aisles, signs,
anchoring, non-interference with pedestrian circulation, and weather protection.
c. Shower and Locker Facilities: Continue to coordinate with Spokane County Commute
Trip Reduction program to encourage shower and locker facilities as tenant benefits
and to encourage employers to consider partnering with nearby gym facilities for use of
existing shower facilities.
d. Transit Features: Continue as an active partner with the Spokane Regional
Transportation Council and the Spokane Transit Authority to encourage the
accommodation of bike lockers and bikes on transit vehicles.
11.4.3 Education and Encouragement
Unfortunately, too many bicyclists in the United States lack the basic skills or knowledge to safely
ride a bicycle in traffic. Many people are afraid of bicycling on streets. Bicycle education programs
are designed to increase bicycle safety by improving the ability to ride with traffic as well as improve
motorist awareness. The difficulties faced in helping people develop this skill and knowledge stems
from the wide range of age groups that require this training and the necessity to tailor the programs
to each group. Bicycle education programs should be directed at children bicyclists, adult bicyclists
and motorists.
The following methods address education and encouragement:
a. Child Education and Encouragement: In conjunction with the Health District, school
districts and other interested organizations, encourage development of bicycle
education programs for several age groups or use existing programs that have
demonstrated effectiveness. Programs could be incorporated into existing summer
parks programming and existing school programming. Programs could include bicycle
helmet safety information, maintenance and repair, safe riding habits and bicycle rides.
More specifically, students in grades K-3 could be taught basic pedestrian skills,
stranger danger, crossing residential streets, using pedestrian push buttons and taking
a school bus. Older students in Grades 4 to 5 could learn bike safety and handling
skills, including bike operation on streets with supervised bike rides on neighborhood
streets. Later, in Grades 7-9, students could learn basic mobility skills of how to get
around town including using transit for utilitarian and recreational trips (e.g., how to
read a bus schedule, execute a transfer, take rapid transit), and more on safe bicycling
practices. In tenth grade, many students take driver's education. The driver's
education curriculum could include focused instruction on how motorists should interact
with pedestrians and bicyclists, how to predict their movements, pass safely and learn
when different modes have the right-of-way.
b. Adult Education and Encouragement: Continue to partner with the Health District,
Police Department, SCOPE and other interested organizations to develop adult
pedestrian and bicycle program(s) which could include a public awareness campaign
focused on responsible road behavior. The campaign could be directed to
pedestrians, bicyclists and motorists alike and make use of public service space from
newspapers, television, radio, bus advertising, posters and flyers included in utility
bills. In addition, promote community events such as Bike to Work Week, charity bike
rides, costume rides, bike fairs and bicycle rodeos. Include bicycle safety checks and
safety information. Incorporate "share the road" signs where appropriate on City
streets and include "sharing the road" or other safety campaign information on the
City's webpage.

City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
11.4.4 Enforcement
While laws that address bicyclists' behavior and safety are in place, they are sometimes not fully
enforced. Effective enforcement leads to a safer environment for pedestrians, bicyclists and
motorists alike. The following methods address enforcement of this Bike and Pedestrian Master
Program:
a. Law Enforcement: Work with the Spokane Valley Police Department to develop a policy to
include the City's intent to enforce existing laws affecting pedestrian, bicyclist and motorist
responsibilities, including parking in bike lanes but especially those relating to drunken
driving, careless driving, speeding and failing to yield.
b. School Crossings: Continue assisting school districts to develop their Safe Routes to School
programs to ensure safe crossing activity at school sites. Engage SCOPE as an additional
presence where needed.
c. Facility Upkeep: Continue existing program of regular maintenance of street and sidewalk
facilities. Ensure that asphalt pavement overlays are flush with the concrete gutter and that
utility covers are flush with the pavement.
11.4.5 Implementation and Funding
Various portions of this Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Program can be implemented with existing
procedures (such as paint applied when a road is resurfaced, continuing existing requirements and
coordination with other agencies). Other portions will require further study, possible neighborhood
input and detailed engineering design. Table 11.4.1 summarizes potential steps involved with
implementation:

Detailed descriptions of funding sources, including match requirements and application timing, are
contained in Appendix 3. Review of several funding programs reveals that while each grant
announcement details specific criteria for funding, certain common threads are present. When
applying for funding consider the following criteria:
a. Partnership
Funding is limited. Therefore, grant sources encourage and support cooperative regional
projects and planning efforts that integrate housing, transportation, environmental impact
and economic development. Projects that pull together public and private entities and
multiple stakeholders are favored.
b. Risk Reduction
Crash data quantifies dangerous stretches of pedestrian and bicycle commute routes.
Increasing safety for pedestrians and bicyclists encourages the larger community to
consider these alternative modes of transportation. Projects designed to address a clear
and demonstrated safety hazard are therefore encouraged.
c. Location
Bike and pedestrian facilities that link residential areas with schools, recreation facilities,
and shopping areas result in a large benefit to a community. Encouraging alternative
transportation to daily activities reduces car commutes and pollution. Well located projects
also consider and provide for multi -generational users.
d. Broad Project Scope
Developing and encouraging use of an overall bike and pedestrian system is an on-going
process. Implementing a successful bike and pedestrian master program includes
identification of facility improvements, provisions for education, encouragement and
enforcement, and program follow-up that provides for evaluation and adjustments over
time.
11.4.6 Monitoring and Modifications
Monitoring the effectiveness of the overall BPMP can be accomplished as part of the annual
Comprehensive Plan review and update. Modifications to the Bicycle Map, the Pedestrian Map, the
project implementation tables and other programs described in this Chapter can be accomplished
as needed to achieve established goals. The City's web page can be updated with notices of
projects that are in the planning, design, build or maintenance phase. Education and enforcement
activities can be highlighted on the web page.
