This information is a summary of additional programs, including those funded by grants and contracts, of the Spokane County Sheriff's Office and the Spokane Valley Police Department, hereinafter referred to as "SCSO/SVPD", supported by federal funds. Summary of Contracts: The school districts of Central Valley, East Valley, and West Valley have or are negotiating contracts for School Resource Deputies (SRDs). The contracts for School Resource Deputies assigned to the schools within the City of Spokane Valley and/or attended by students living within the City of Spokane Valley directly benefit the students, patrons, and staff of those schools. West Valley, Central Valley, and University High Schools all have School Resource Deputies assigned to their campuses, and those School Resource Deputies also provide services to other schools of the West Valley and Central Valley School Districts within the City of Spokane Valley. Although the contracts provide funding from the school districts, there are also additional funds that have contributed to the budgets for these SRDs and the schools. These are listed below in the discussion of grants. Contractual agreements are also a part of many of the partnership agreements for cooperative work programs funded wholly or in part by grants managed by the Grant/Contract Coordinator. Summary of Grants: The SCSO historically has taken advantage of a number of federal and state grant opportunities dating back to 1994 with 6 grants providing approximately $350,000 funding. Traditionally the opportunities were allocated to jurisdictions via formula funding based on population, crime statistics, and other demographics. Beginning in approximately 2000, there was a shift toward competitive discretionary grant funding as well as Congressional earmark programs with an average of 12 grants each year providing approximately $1.25 million funding. Implementation of the Coordinator's work program began in April of 2003, and the number of grants being managed by the Coordinator numbered 22 by 2003 year end providing approximately $1.50 million funding. By the end of 2005 there were 58 grants managed, and they were providing over$2.50 million funding. Personnel costs supported by Grants: During the years of 2003 through 2005 grants provided funding for additional and/or carryover personnel performing law enforcement services. Included were 3 Property Crimes Task Force Detectives, 1 dedicated Drug Endangered Children Project Detective, 1 Methamphetamine Precursor Detective, 1 FTE School Resource Deputy, 1 support staff for the Spokane Regional Drug Task Force, and 13 COPS positions. These COPS positions provided the opportunity to fill positions for 2 Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Officers, 1 School Resource Deputy, 10 Patrol Deputies, and a credit to the City of Spokane Valley for 1 Sergeant assigned to the SVPD. In addition during this time frame, grant funding has provided for 1 dedicated Drug Endangered Children Project Detective for the City of Spokane Police Department, 1 dedicated Drug Endangered Children Project Prosecutor, 2.75 FTE dedicated drug crimes Prosecutors, 5 dedicated staff positions for partners in the Drug Endangered Children Project, 2 dedicated staff positions for the Edgecliff Weed and Seed Project, and over 9,000 hours of overtime for law enforcement personnel. Programs Benefiting the City of Spokane Valley: Although all law enforcement services via contract and grant revenue provide an indirect benefit to the City of Spokane Valley by providing personnel, equipment, and programs to enhance public safety for the entire Spokane County region, there are a number of programs that are managed by the Coordinator specifically for the benefit of the City of Spokane Valley and its Police Department. The following grants provide federal funding (either directly or indirectly) to the City of Spokane Valley: Edgecliff Weed and Seed Project - $750,000 federal funds from the US Department of Justice from 2004 through 2007. The Edgecliff Weed and Seed Project's 3 grants managed by the Coordinator are providing a total of $550,000 directly to the City of Spokane Valley and its citizens for the time frame of January 1, 2004 through September 30, 2006. An additional $200,000 grant is in the application process, and it will provide funding to extend the Edgecliff Weed and Seed Project through September 30, 2007. That grant requires a$25,000 match, all of which will be met by the volunteer services of Edgecliff SCOPE members, thereby relieving the City of Spokane Valley from providing that match. o Project Safe Neighborhood, ATF Canine grants — For the time frame of September of 2003 through August of 2006 there has been federal funding for combating gun crimes via 2 grants. The total fund from the US Department of Justice via pass through from Washington Department of Community, Trade and Economic Development (CTED) is $82,890. The funds provide for the costs of overtime, telephone, equipment (including the vehicle of Deputy JP Melton and equipment in Forensics), supplies and training. ® Spokane Regional Drug Task Force (SRDTF) Justice Assistance Grant, Drug Interdiction Program from the US Department of Justice passed through via Washington Department of Community, Trade and Economic Development — approximately $500,000 annual budget with $233,143 for 2006-2007 twelve-month period from federal grant and the remainder from the Designated Unreserved Fund Balance (DUFB) account containing forfeiture funds as a result of seizures by SRDTF. 9 The Washington Traffic Safety Commission (WTSC) grants typically become available for overtime emphasis patrols approximately 4 times per year with an average of$20,000 per year available to the SVPD and another $20,000 per year available to the SCSO. In addition, WTSC grants for equipment, including more than $52,000 in funds during 2005 alone for radars and other traffic safety equipment, were split equally between the SCSO and SVPD. WASPC equipment grants in smaller quantities of$1,000 to $3,000 per year are also provided for each agency, SVPD and SCSO. These funds are primarily federal funds from various federal agencies and are passed through to the state via WTSC. • The Secure Our Schools grant from the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) Office of the U.S. Department of Justice. The federal funds of $32,115 are matched with an equal amount of local funds and being used to provide all schools that house School Resource Deputies, both inside and outside of the City of Spokane Valley, with enhanced communications systems as well as security training for school administration, staff, and students, as appropriate for each group. • The US Department of Justice provides funds with a 50/50 federal to local allocation through the bulletproof vest program. The federal fund varies depending on the need throughout the nation and priorities set by the federal agencies involved. The last grant for use in 2005 was for $8,484 in federal funds. Vests are purchased for all deputies/officers in law enforcement and other Spokane County employees (Geiger, Jail, Park Ranger, Reserves, Sheriff, Spokane Valley Police) as vests are rotated through their life cycles. The 2006 award has not been set by the federal agency. • Buffer Zone funding via the Department of Homeland Security was funded from October 1, 2005, through March 31, 2006, in the amount of $48,642 to purchase communications equipment, police equipment, and other equipment for the benefit of law enforcement. Deputy Travis Pendell is the person responsible for the program on this grant. Finally, the demographics of the areas for which law enforcement services are provided by the SCSO and/or the SVPD play a role in the ultimate benefit received by the urbanized areas of the City of Spokane Valley and the citizens living in those areas. These areas are denser with respect to population per area. Many of the law enforcement services provided are in response to incidents in these denser populated areas, and grant programs are intended to and do address specific criminal activity. Among the grant programs are the following: • Spokane County Collaborative Community Response to Drug Endangered Children o STOP Violence Against Women— federal funds passed through the Washington State Office of Crime Victims in the amount of approximately $25,000 each year to fund overtime, phones, training, and supplies for deputies and officers assigned to projects involving combating violence against women • Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG-former title) and the Justice Assistance Grant (JAG-current title) from US Department of Justice — funded as a formula grant each year based on negotiation among all City of Spokane and County of Spokane, including City of Spokane Valley, for law enforcement and prosecution. The SCSO/SVPD law enforcement funding for 2004-2008 under the current JAG program is $85,000. The prior LLEBG, which runs through October of 2006, was funded at $27,892. Both grants require a match of approximately 25% of the federal amount or 20% of the total program, including federal and match. The 2006 award, which will run for 4 years, is pending. It will provide for$50,820 to the law enforcement budget for the SCSO/SVPD.

Located on a 10.4 acre site, the neighborhood was jointly developed by Community Frameworks, a non-profit affordable housing developer and Greenstone Homes, a large regional for-profit developer and home builder. The project was designed from the start to seamlessly integrate entry level market rate homes with subsidized homes offered through Community Frameworks HomeStarts home ownership program. A master plan featuring small lots, alley-loaded garages, central auto courts, extensive use of street trees and a neighborhood park assured that Dishman Commons was developed as a high quality, visually appealing and family friendly neighborhood. All 36 of the condo owners (30 low income families and 6 market rate) and 38 low income, single family homeowners at Dishman Commons are first time home buyers in Community Frameworks HomeStarts home ownership program In the HomeStarts program, buyers earn their down payment and closing costs through sweat equity work. In a model called mutual sweat equity, a group of 8 to 10 families work together on each others houses and no one moves in until all the houses are completed. The sweat equity requirement not only eliminates the down payment barrier but it also builds pride of ownership and a sense of community. The primary financing for the home buyers comes from bank first mortgages. HomeStarts staff help families apply and qualify for a first mortgage with payments based on their income. Typically, this mortgage is not enough to purchase the home. Then HomeStarts is able to backfill behind the first mortgage with one or more deferred second mortgages. This allows the family to buy a well built new home with payments that are affordable based on their current income. First mortgages from local lenders for HomeStarts homes total just over$4,725,000. Subsidy funding used at Dishman Commons to provide deferred mortgages was received from: Washington State Housing Trust Fund- $1,005,000; HUD Self-Help Housing Opportunity Program (SHOP)- $700,000; Federal Horne Loan Bank- $430,000; Spokane County- HUD HOME $227,500 and Spokane County- other $22,500. Wells Fargo Bank, Washington Mutual and Bank of America have supported the project and HomeStarts through grant funding. Federal funding ittaled $927,500 in SHOP and HOME Funds. In June 2006 the last 12 homebuyers will move into their new condominium units, completing this innovative project and leaving a vibrant new neighborhood as a legacy for all the residents of Spokane Valley.

Over a five year period,representatives from local entities including the Guild School,Spokane School District No. 81,Shriner's Hospital,Harvard Park Children's Center,Sports Medicine and Ronald McDonald House Charities were consulted to identify educational and physical growth and development needs of children 1-1/2 through 10 years of age. The "Essential Academic Learning Requirements"outlined by the Washington State Commission on Student Learning were reviewed for opportunities in the park. Design Goals The Children's Universal Park is designed to be accessible, developmentally progressive,therapeutic, and kinetically engaging. The Park is specifically designed to provide activities that work toward: Enhancing psycho-motor skills El Improving coordination. ® Regaining strength and balance m Improving flexibility ® Increasing range of motion ' Enhancing sensory motor performance ▪ Stimulating tactile feeling s Increasing gross and fine motor skills ® Providing auditory stimulus ® Building muscle tone O Building confidence s Rehabilitation • Encouraging social interaction ' Therapeutic exercise © Providing cardiovascular exercise s Essential academic learning The Chilli:-en's Universal Park Master i•'11a�a The Children's Universal Park is designed for preschool and school aged children and specifically includes events to enrich the experience for children with special physical needs (Figure 3). The park provides imaginative,cognitive and motor skills play events with educational stations for families and small to large educational groups. The park provides an outdoor format where classrooms up to the fifth grade can pursue Essential Academic Learning Requirements in physical,earth and life sciences, and health and fitness. Activity stations include climbing,balance challenge,slides,sand,water,sorting and counting,and nature exploration. Every surface and space within the park is utilized to provide multiple sensory stimulus,provide physically challenging exercise stations, and accommodate a variety of individual and group 'learning through play' activities. The Children's Universal Park is completely contained with a combination of fences,walls,rocks and landscape to provide safety and confidence within the park. The entry welcomes all to come in and explore the park. The Park Elements are arranged in designated areas of varying sizes to accommodate individuals,multiple families,small groups, and outdoor classrooms progressing through the park (Figure 4). Children's Universal Park 4 David Evans and Associates, Inc. 05/07/01 The Park Elements provide the following play experiences in an ideal outdoor environment: Entry Portal Gather your group all together at the gateway before you divide them into small groups and send them off to play in each area of the park. The Grove Providing a canopy of shade,the grove is the inviting backdrop for the park's entry. Trees selected represent the orchards of earlier days in the Spokane Valley. Beneath the shade of the center trees sit in the cool earth,lean against the trunk of a tree if you need support. Feel the ground and play in the dirt. The Rolling Field The Palouse hills in miniature is one grassy mound and swale after another providing an open play field that rises and falls with laughter. Lay down and roll over the mounds, smell the grass and feel the moving sensation for whole body physical therapy. The Picnic Area Gather for a lunch stop. Watch others at the Math and Mazes Wall as you eat. Then jump up and join in the fun as you wait for your group to finish lunch. Math and Mazes Wall Learn to sort and count at the abacus. Let your fingers find their way out of the finger maze. Move the balls and watch them slide from one side to the next on the spiral maze. Hop and jump through games in the paving. Check in with friends exploring the Mountain Range Chimes by talking through the talking tubes. Volcano Slide Mirabeau's only active mountain erupting with mist or electric neon when triggered by an observer simulates a volcano. To reach the rim of the volcano take the gradual ramp, or be a rock climber and ascend the rock wall and cross the swinging bridge, or use the transfer station pads. Once on top spiral around the mountain on the volcano slide! Salmon Life Cycle Wall See the.stages of a salmon's life from egg to adult. Touch the reliefs to sense the size of each stage. Count the number of fish and rim over to the math and mazes wall to log in your totals. Double Slide Cove Kids going around and around the loop,racing by twos down the double slide. A transfer station lets children lift themselves to the top and be rewarded by sliding down. Or use the climbing wall to make the top and slide down, around and around. The safe cave is for those in chairs who participate by watching and rocking from their own protected space. The Observation Deck Look into scopes to see osprey circling over the Spokane River looking for lunch or fish jumping for their food. Wave to people on the Centennial Trail and at the Plaza. Gather for group time to hear stories. Mountain Range Chimes Reflecting our local mountain profiles a work of visual and audio art. Chimes suspended for musical play by the brush of a small hand or by the wind whistling though the Mountain Range.

Start with the 4" step height to practice raising each foot. Then challenge yourself to step the 6" and 8" high risers. Fossil and River Table Area Make rubbings to take home from the fossils table. Learn how water flows with gravity. Move objects to create bends,dams,falls,and see how boats flow down the river you created. Feel the excitement of moving water;get your hands wet and laugh. Geology Wall © Soil Strata—read about the layers of soil and how they are formed. See and feel the textures. • Life in the Soil—See animals and organisms make their homes in the soil and learn what they do. Rearrange the critters around on the wall. • Aquifer—Learn about the lakes and rivers flowing below the ground we walk on. Learn how the water gets there,stays there and how we tap into it. alance Beam Test your balance as you walk the beams around the semicircle,pretend you are jumping logs floating in the river. Challenge yourself through each level of difficulty. Sundial Circle A paved circular area with multipurpose uses. Gather a group of children around the circle perimeter for story time or games. Stand in the Center and be the Gnomon on the sundial,check your shadow on the marked surface,and tell the time of day. River Wash Stand on the swinging bridge and image huge fish swimming below you.
