CHANGED CONDITIONS - ' WHAT ARE THE CHANGES CONDITIONS HIGH WARRANTS THIS PROPOSED Cl-CANCE? The site was not appropriate for apar Lrrients in 1.976 , and is most certainly not appropriate for a e.rtments in 2003 . The site was categorized in the High Density Residential category without regard for the 'underlying zoning, characteristics of the area, proximity to the Freeway Interchange, noise from arterial and railroad traffic , and the utilization of other frontage properties along Pines Road for commercial and industrial purposes. Sewer lines are in the process of being extended along Mansfield Avenue" and a new traffic signal is planned at the Mansfield and Pines intersection. As .the area continues to develop, the site will be appropriate for comrneroial/'industrial/office uses. The County' s Comprehensive Plan shows Light Industrial to the south, Mixed Use and Commercial to the east, and High Density Residential to the north and east. i 6/412003 Page 3 of 5 • PROPOSAL PROVIDE GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSAL: Thomas S. Smith and Robert J . Warner, owners of a 2 .5 acre parcel; located on the west side of Pines Road between the Union Pacific Railroad tracks and Mansfield Avenue, request the the Generalized: Comprehensive Plan of the City of the Spokane Valley be changed from the High Density Residential category to the Light Industrial category to acknowledge the the 1-2 zone category granted to the property through a specific zoning request ( ZE-78-75) granted by Spokane County on April 29, 1976 for potential use of an office/ warehouse project. The subject property has been assessed as commercial property, dedications of additional rights-of-way have. been granted, sewer and water is available to the site, certain buildings demolished, and the site graded in anticipation of future commercial/industrial activities. The recent action by the Board of County Commissioners of Spokane County to classify the property High Density Residential efectively limits the development options available for the property. The owners consider this action a dc - zone and herein petition the City Council of the Spokane Valley to correct the comprehensive plan category to reflect past action's and to acknowledge the highest and best use of the property. The; site is not suitable for apartments or other high density residential uses because of the traffic ana noise along Pines Road, a state highway, proximity to I-90 and the Pines Interchange, and the impact of train passing mouth of -the--site--- -... . ...... . _ _ ADJACENT LAND USES DESCRIBE EXIS'T1NC LAND USES WITHIN THE VICINITY OF PROPOSAL: The subject property is vacant = .

Pinecroft Mobile Home Park zoned UR-22. The subject property was granted a rezone by Spokane County in 1976. The 1970 rezone to Restricted Industrial would have allowed construction of a future commercial/industrial development During the County's 2002 comprehensive plan update, the subject parcels were changed on the plan map to High Density Residential and subsequently rezoned to UR-22. SEPA Analysis The requested comprehensive plan map and rezone is considered a "non-project" action under SEPA. The applicant does not include provisions for a specific project at this time. The requested rezone, if approved, would result in a wide range of potential commercial, retail and light industrial land uses to be allowed on the subject property. Given the wide 1 range of potential uses that would be allowed under the requested 1-2 zoning, it would be extremely difficult to identify specific impacts with potential development of the subject property. A more appropriate time to assess the development impacts of this property would be at the time a project specific related environmental review is conducted. Recommendation Staff recommends that a Determination of Nonsignificance be issued for the proposed comprehensive plan and zoning map amendment. 2 ofoktio City of Spokane Valley DETERMINATION OF NONSIGNIFICANCE Description of proposal: Request a Comprehensive Plan Map amendment from High Density Residential I€_Light Induseral and a rezone from'Urban Residential-22,to 1-2,Light Industrial.

Applications received prior to July 1$t are considered by the Planning Commission in August and September, with a recommendation forwarded to the City Council in later September or early October. A decision by the City Council is to be made no later than December of each year. All parts of the Comprehensive Plan can be amended during the annual cycle. The Community Development Department received 7 requests for site-specific Comprehensive Plan amendments for 2001 Sites that are approved for a comprehensive plan amendment will automatically receive a zoning designation that is consistent with the new land use designation. Attachments to this report include application materials, SEPA documentation, land use maps and zoning maps to assist the Commission's review. Notice The Community Development Department placed advertisements in the Spokesman- Review on June 5, 7, '12 and 14, 2003, notifying the public that comprehensive plan amendment applications would be accepted until July 1, 2003. On August 13, 2003, notice Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amerxdments of the Planning Commission's public hearing was placed in the Spokesman-Review. Each site was posted with a "Notice of Land Use Application" sign, which included a map and description of the proposal_ Finally, individual notice of the proposals was mailed to all property owners within 400 feet of each amendment. SEPA Review Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA— RCW 43.21 C) environmental checklists were required for each proposed comprehensive plan amendment. Under SEPA, amendments to the comprehensive plan are considered "non-project actions' which are defined as actions involving decisions on policies, plans, or programs that contain standards controlling use or modification of the environment. Additional environmental review may be required for the actual development of the subject properties. Staff reviewed the environmental checklists and a threshold determination was made for each comprehensive plan amendment request. Determinations of Nonsignificance (DNS) were issued for the requested comprehensive plan amendments on August 8, 2003. The DNS's were published in the city's official newspaper on August 13, 2003 consistent with City of Spokane Valley requirements, Comprehensive Plan Amendment Proposals CPA-03-01 Applicant: Gib Brumback Request: Change the land use designation from Low-Density Residential to Regional Commercial and the zoning from UR-7 (UR-7) to ( -3). Location: 8915 East Montgomery-West of Argonne Rd., on the north side of Montgomery and south of the Union Pacific railroad right-of-way. Site Area: 2.76 acres Existing Use: 15,000 sq. ft. self-storage building, self serve car wash and RVdtruck storage. Adjacent Uses: Railroad to the north, commercial to the west, residential to the south. Public Facilities: The property is currently served with public water and sewer and is accessed from a paved, public street. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The subject property was zoned commercial in 1970. In 2001, Spokane County designated the property Low-Density Residential and applied the August 14, 20003 Pegs 2 of Staff Report 20D3 Comprehensive Plan Amendments UR-7 zone. The request is to re-establish the previous commercial zoning and be consistent with existing uses on subject property_ Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The interim Comprehensive Plan [and use map designates the Argonne corridor between 1-90 and Trent Ave. as a Community Center, which is a higher-intensity, mixed-use area designed to serve two or more neighborhoods. These areas have a mix of uses, including commercial, civic, high-density residential and recreational uses. Existing zoning along the Argonne corridor is largely B-3 and UR-22 transitioning to UR- 3.5. The Applicant requests that the Regional Commercial land use designation be applied to the subject property. This designation is not consistent with the adjacent Community Center designation. Recommendation Change property to Community Center, consistent with adjacent properties. Apply the B-2 zone consistent with the Phase 1 Development Regulations. All current uses on the property are allowed in the B-2 zone. (See Attachment 1 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related naps.) CPA-03-02 Applicant: Associated Restaurants, Inc. (Richard Repp) Request: Change land use designation from Neighborhood Commercial to Regional Commercial and zoning from B-1 to 8-3. The application indicates that the property is designated Medium Density residential, which is not correct. Location: South side of Appleway Blvd. across from Dishman Dodge, east of Park Road. Site Area: 3 acres Existing Use: The property is currently vacant. Adjacent Uses: The Rose Haven Mobile Home Park is located directly west of the subject property, with vacant hillside land to the south and east. Dishman Dodge is located across Appleway to the north. Public Facilities: The subject property is located within East Spokane Water District# 1 (WATER RIGHTS?? The area was sewered by Spokane County in 2001 and is accessed by Appleway Blvd. Previous Land Use/Zoning: In December, 2001, the property was zoned Neighborhood Commercial (B-i) by Spokane County_ The Applicant originally requested the County to August 14, 2O 3 page 3 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments zone the property B-3, which was conditionally approved by the Hearing Examiner. This decision was appealed to be Board of County Commissioners, who decided to zone the property B-1 in December, 2001. The major issue concerning this property is the potential impact commercial development will have on the Dishman Hills Natural Area, located south of the site and the precedent that would be set by allowing commercial development south of Appleway. Spokane County adopted their Comprehensive Plan in November, 2001 and Phase 1 Development Regulations implementing the Comprehensive Plan in January, 2002, The 2001 Comprehensive Plan designated the subject property Medium Density Residential with the Phase 1 Regulations applying the UR-12 zoning designation. The zoning history of the subject property was brought to the City Council's attention prior to the date of incorporation. When the Council adopted the County's Comprehensive Plan, the subject property received the Neighborhood Commercial land use designation. This was followed with a zone change to Neighborhood Commercial, consistent with the decision made by the County Commissioners in December, 2001, Comprehensive Plan'Zoning Analysis: The entire south side of Appleway Blvd., from Coleman to Sargent Ave., is designated Medium Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan map, except for the subject property, which is currently designated Neighborhood Commercial. Property north of Appleway is designated Medium Density Residential and Regional Commercial. The Comprehensive Plan describes the Regional Commercial category as intensive commercial areas intended to draw customers from the County at large and other outlying areas. Regional shopping centers and major commercial areas will be designated with this classification, The Neighborhood Commercial classification designates small-scale neighborhood-serving retail and office use. Community Commercial designates areas for retail, service and office establishments intended to serve several neighborhoods, Recommendation: The proposed site is bound by a manufactured home park to the west and hills to the south and east. These constraints, and the size of the subject property, will limit development in this area to the subject site. The Neighborhood Commercial designation does not appear appropriate in this instance because the site will not serve a single neighborhood. Further, at 3 acres, the site is large enough to support commercial businesses that will riot fit into the Neighborhood Commercial classification, either by size or intensity. Conversely the Regional Commercial designation is perhaps too intense for this particular site. Staff recommends designating the property Community Commercial and applying the B-2 zone, which will allow mere flexibility and marketability to the site, but will limit future impacts of development that would be allowed under the Regional Commercial designation and B-3 zone. (See Attachment 2 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) August 14, 2003 Page 4 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments CPA-03-03 Applicant: Thomas Smith Request: Change the lard use designation from High Density Residential to Light Industrial and change zoning from UR-22 to I-2. Location: West side of Pines Road between the Union Pacific Railroad Right-of-Way and Mansfield Avenue. Site Area: 2.5 acres Existing Use: Vacant Adjacent Uses: Property to the west, across Pines Rd., includes a restaurant, an office and a convenience store. A mobile home court is directly west of the site and the Union Pacific railroad right-cf way adjacent to the south property line. Public Facilities: Public water is available to the site through Irvin Water District. The area is scheduled for sewer construction during 2003; however, the Applicant recently opted out of the County's sewer program. The County would have provided a sewer stub to the property from the sewer extension along Mansfield Avenue and charged the property with a sewer general facility. The Applicant decided to opt out of the program, indicating that he would be responsible to extend a sewer line under the railroad right-of- way ight-ofway to an existing main line. Ineither case, any new development would be required to connect to the public sewer system. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The property was zoned Restricted Industrial in 1976, which would have allowed construction of a commercial/industrial development. In 20151, Spokane County designated the properly High Density Residential and followed with a UR- 22 zoning designation in 2002. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The Interim Comprehensive Plan designates a large area west of Pines and north of the railroad right-of-way High Density Residential This category allows for multi-family apartments and office uses. Land on the east side of Pines is designated Community Center, an intense mixed-use area. Property to the south, including the railroad property, is designated Light Industrial. The Comprehensive Plan states that Light Industrial category "is intended for industrial areas that have a special emphasis and attention given to aesthetics, landscaping and internal and community compatibility". Office and commercial uses that support and compliment the industrial areas are allowed. Recommendation: Change property to Light Industrial and zone I-2, consistent with previous 1976 zoning end policies within the Interim Comprehensive Plan. (See Attachment 3 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) August 14, 2003 Page 5 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Ran Amendments CPA-03-44 Applicant: Doug Lydig (John Sweitzer, Agent) Request: Change property from Low Density Residential to Light Industrial and zoning from UR-7 to 1-2. Location: Golf Dome property at Cataldo Avenue, west of Bradley and adjacent to Beauty Bark. Site Area: 2.57 acres Existing Use: Indoor golf practice facility. Adjacent Uses; Industrial and commercial uses, including a landscape supply business to the east, a UPS trucking facility to the west and scattered residential parcels to the north. Public Facilities: Public sewer won't be available to the site until 2005. Public water is supplied by Spokane County Water District Nc. 3. The site is accessed by a public road. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The site was rezoned from 1-2 to B-3 by Spokane County in 1994 to allow for construction of the indoor golf facility and pro shop. In 2001, Spokane County designated the property Low Density Residential and followed with a UR-7 zoning designation in 2002. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The subject property is surrounded on three sides by Light Industrial property, with Low-Density Residential property to the north. The requested Light Industrial designation is consistent with the surrounding designations. Recommendation: Change land use designation to Light Industrial and change zoning to 1-2. (See Attachment 4 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) CPA-03-05 Applicant: Dave IVerren (Lexington Homes) Request: Change property from Low Density Residential to High Density Residential and change zoning from UR-3.5 to UR-22. Location: Between Broadway and Cataldo Avenue, west of Pines Road. Site Area: 3 acres August 14, 2003 Page 6 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendrmmits Existing Use: Largely vacant except for a single-family dwelling. Adjacent Uses: Residential/vacant land to the west, single-family residential to the north and east. Public Facilities: The property has public sewer available; water is provided by Modern Electric 1 Fater Company. Access to the site is from Broadway Avenue, a four lane principal arterial. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The subject property has been zoned single-family residential for many years. Property directly east received a zone change to UR-22 in 1978 and is designated High Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The subject site is located within a transition area between single-family residential and office uses. Property directly east is designated High Density Residential while property to the west and north is designated Low Density Residential; property south, across Broadway, is designated Medium Density Residential and zoned UR-22. The request is consistent with Policies UL.2.16, UL.2.20 and Goal UL.7 of the Urban Land Use chapter of the Interim Comprehensive Plan. Recommendation: Change property to High Density Residential and change zoning to UR-22. (See Attachment 5 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps) CPA-03-06 Applicant: Harold Sarff Request: Change property from Low Density Residential to High Density Residential, Location: North side of Broadway, west of Evergreen Road between Blake and learner Rd. Site Area: 5+ acres Existing Zoning/Land Use: The property is currently zoned UR-22 and is developed with a independent retirement complex called Broadway Court Estates. The Applicant is requesting to expand the facility to the east, into vacant residential property. Adjacent Uses: The site is surrounded by the following uses and zoning districts: north — vacant land zoned UR-3.5; south — Broadway Avenue, church and single family zoned UR- 3.5; east—single family residential zoned UR-3.5; and west— unimproved Blake Road and Blake elementary piayfields zoned UR-3.5. August t4, 2003 Page 7 of g Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments Public Facilities: The site is currently served with water by Vera Water and Power and is connected to public sewer. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The majority of the proposed site was zoned UR-22 in 1998 to allow for the development of the retirement facility. In 2001, Spokane County designated the property Low Density Residential but did not change the UR-22 zoning. Therefore, the existing Comprehensive Plan designation is not consistent with the current zone and use of the property. The proposed expansion area to the east is designated Low Density Residential and zoned UR-3.5. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: It appears that the County erred in designating the subject property Low Density Residential in 2001. The expansion area to the east would not have a significant impact on the neighborhood and is consistent with Comprehensive Plan Policy UL 2.17. Recommendation: Change the entire site to High Density Residential, including the separate parcel fronting Broadway and surrounded by the subject property. Apply the UR- 22 zone to the expansion area. (See Attachment B for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps) CPA-03-07 Applicant: P &T Partners (John Peterson. Agent) Request: Change property from Low-Density Residential to High-Density Residential on the western portion and Community Commercial on the eastern portion. The requested zoning is UR-22 on the western portion and B-2 on the eastern portion. Location: The property is located on the west side of Barker Road, between Boone and Sharp Avenue. Site Area: Total area is about 3 acres, which will be split approximately in half by the Community Commercial/High Density Residential designations. Existing Use: The eastern portion is developed with a convenience store/service station and fast food restaurant. The western portion is vacant. Adjacent Uses: Property to the north is currently being developed into a R.V./Boat storage facility; south is Washington State D.O.T. property (part of the I-901Barker interchange); east and west is residential. Public Facilities: Water is served by Consolidated Irrigation District#19; access is via public roads maintained by Spokane County. The existing convenience store/fast food restaurant is connected to the County's sewer line on Barker Rd. by a private 2' line. August 14, 2003 Page 8 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments Development of the western portion may require connection to the County's sewer line to the west, which is yet to beconstructed. Kevin Cooke, Spokane County Utilities, informed the Community Development Staff that a line will be constructed about 1000' east of the Flora and Mission intersection. The developer of the subject properly would be required to extend sewer to this location, rather than east to Barker Road. Engineering issues aside, future development on the site would be required to connect to theCounty's public sewer system. Previous Land Use&Zoning: The property was converted to 1-2 zoning in 1957, 195B and 1971. The convenience store was constructed in 2000. In 2001, Spokane County designated the area Low-Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan Map and applied the UR-7 zone. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The existing use of the property is not consistent with the current Low-Density Residential designation and UR-7 zoning. The requested Community Commercial designation for the eastern portion of the site is consistent with the existing use. The Comprehensive Plan describes Community Commercial as "areas for retail, service and office establishments intended to serve several neighborhoods". Policy UL.2.16 encourages the location of medium and high density residential categories near commercial areas and public open spaces and on sites with good access to arterials. Policy UL.2.17 encourages multifamily homes to be integrated into or next to neighborhood, community or urban activity centers; and integrated into small, scattered parcels throughout existing residential areas. Recommendation: Community Development staff supports the requested Community Commercial designation for the existing commercial business on the eastern portion of the site. However, staff does not support designating the western portion High Density Residential, but does recommend designating the site Medium Density Residential. This will provide for a better transition between commercial and single-family residential and will have less impact on the existing single-family neighborhood.

The subject property is comprised of approximately 2.57 acres and is currently developed with an enclosed golf practice facility. The site is surrounded by the following uses and zoning districts: north — some residential and zoned UR-3.5; south — Cataldo Avenue and Interstate 90 right-of-way; east — residential uses and zoned UR-3.5, and west — industrial uses and zoned 1-2, Light Industrial. The subject property was granted a rezone by Spokane County in 1994_ The 1994 rezone to B-3, Regional Commercial from 1^2, Light Industrial allowed the construction of the indoor golf practice facility and pro shop. During the County's 2002 comprehensive plan update, the subject parcel was changed on the comprehensive plan map to Low Density Residential and subsequently rezoned to UR-7. This change has resulted in the existing use becoming "nonconforming”. SEPA Analysis The requested comprehensive plan map and rezone is considered a "non-project' action under SEPA. The applicant does not include provisions to construct or change the existing use at this time. The requested rezone, if approved, would not result in an immediate 1 change to the current use on the property. A more appropriate time to assess the development impacts of this property would be at a future date when a project specific related environmental review as conducted. Recommendation Staff recommends that a Determination of Nonsignificance be issued for the proposed comprehensive plan and zoning map amendment. 2 F161k";"1.-7i./ City of Spokane Valley DETERMINATION OF NONSIGNIFICANCE Description of proposal west a Comprehensive Plan Map amendutent from Low Density Residential. to Li.ht Industrial and a rezone from Urban Residential-3.5 to I-2 ' ht Indus.

Department of Community Development LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION 400Availey Staff Re po rt Subject: 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendment Proposals Hearing Date: August 28, 2003 Staff: Greg McCormick, AICP — Long Range Planning Manager Scott Kuhta, AICP— Long Range Planner Marina Sulcup, A1CP —Community Development Director Background The Spokane Valley Interim Comprehensive Plan includes an annual amendment cycle that runs from July 2`'d to July 1't of the following year. Applications received prior to July -15' are considered by the Planning Commission in August and September, with a recommendation forwarded to the City Council in later September or early October. A decision by the City Council is to be made no later than December of each year. All parts of the Comprehensive Plan can be amended during the annual cycle. The Community Development Department received 7 requests for site-specific Comprehensive Plan amendments for 2003, Sites that are approved for a comprehensive plan amendment will automatically receive a zoning designation that is consistent with the new land use designation_ Attachments to this report include application materials, SEPA documentation, land use maps and zoning maps to assist the Commission's review. Notice The Community Development Department placed advertisements in the Spokesman- Review on June 5, 7, 12 and 14, 2003, notifying the public that comprehensive plan amendment applications would be accepted until July 1, 2003. On August 13, 2003, notice Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments of the Planning Commission's public hearing was placed in the Spokesman-Review. Each site was posted with a "Notice of Land Use Application" sign, which included a map and description of the proposal. Finally, individual notice of the proposals was mailed to all property owners within 400 feet of each amendment. SEPA Review Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA-- RGV'W 43.2-1C) environmental checklists were required for each proposed comprehensive plan amendment. Under SEPA, amendments to the comprehensive plan are considered "non-project actions' which are defined as actions involving decisions on policies, plans, or programs that contain standards controlling use or modification of the environment. Additional environmental review may be required for the actual development of the subject properties. Staff reviewed the environmental checklists and a threshold determination was made for each comprehensive plan amendment request. Determinations of Nonsignificance (DNS) were issued for the requested comprehensive plan amendments on August 8, 2003. The DNS's were published in the city's official newspaper on August 13, 2003 consistent with City of Spokane Valley requirements. Comprehensive Plan Amendment Proposals CPA-03-01 Applicant: Gib Brumback Request Change the land use designation from Low-Density Residential to Regional Commercial and the zoning from UR-7 (UR-7) to (B-3). Location: 8915 East Montgomery-West of Argonne Rd., on the north side of Montgomery and south of the Union Pacific railroad right-of-way. Site Area: 2.76 acres Existing Use: 15,000 sq. ft. self-storage building, self serve car wash and RV/truck storage. Adjacent Uses: Railroad to the north, commercial to the west, residential to the south. Public Facilities: The property is currently served with public water and sewer and is accessed from a paved, public street. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The subject property was zoned commercial in 1970. In 2001, Spokane County designated the property Low-Density Residential and applied the August 14, 2003 Page 2 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments UR-7 zone. The request is to re-establish the previous commercial zoning and be consistent with existing uses on subject properly. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The interim Comprehensive Plan land use map designates the Argonne corridor between 1-90 and Trent Ave. as a Community Center, which is a higher-intensity, mixed-use area designed to serve two or more neighborhoods. These areas have a mix of uses, including commercial, civic, high-density residential and recreational uses. Existing zoning along the Argonne corridor is largely Bel and UR-22 transitioning to UR- 3.5. The Applicant requests that the Regional Commercial land use designation be applied to the subject property. This designation is not consistent with the adjacent Community Center designation. Recommendation Change property to Community Center, consistent with adjacent properties_ Apply the B-2 zone consistent with the Phase 1 Development Regulations. All current uses on the property are allowed in the B-2 zone. (See Attachment 1 far application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps) CPA-03-02 Applicant: Associated Restaurants, Inc. (Richard Repp) Request: Change land use designation from Neighborhood Commercial to Regional Commercial and zoning from B-1 to B-3. The application indicates that the property is designated Medium Density residential, which is not correct. Location: South side of Appleway Blvd. across from Dishman Dodge, east of Park Road. Site Area: 3 acres Existing Use: The property is currently vacant. Adjacent Uses: The Rose Haven Mobile Home Park is located directly west of the subject property, with vacant hillside land to the south and east. Dishman Dodge is located across Appleway to the north. Public Facilities: The subject property is located within East Spokane Water District# 1 (WATER RIGHTS?? The area was sewered by Spokane County in 2001 and is accessed by Appleway Blvd. Previous Land UselZoning: In December, 2001, the property was zoned Neighborhood Commercial (B-1) by Spokane County. The Applicant originally requested the County to August 14, 2003 Page 3 or9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments zone the property B-3, which was conditionally approved by the Hearing Examiner. This decision was appealed to be Board of County Commissioners, who decided to zone the property B-1 in December, 2001. The major issue concerning this property is the potential impact commercial development will have on the Dishmari Hills Natural Area, located south of the site and the precedent that would be set by allowing commercial development south of Appleway. Spokane County adopted their Comprehensive Plan in November, 2001 and Phase 1 Development Regulations implementing the Comprehensive Plan in January, 2002. The 2001 Comprehensive 'Plan designated the subject property Medium Density Residential with the Phase Regulations applying the JR-12 zoning designation. The zoning history of the subject property was brought to the City Council's attention prior to the date of incorporation. When the Council adopted the County's Comprehensive Plan, the subject property received the Neighborhood Commercial land use designation. This was followed with a zone change to Neighborhood Commercial, consistent with the decision made by the County Commissioners in December, 2001. Comprehensive Plan!Zoning Analysis: The entire south side of Appleway Blvd., from Coleman to Sargent Ave., is designated Medium Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan map, except for the subject property, which is currently designated Neighborhood Commercial, Property north of Appleway is designated Medium Density Residential and Regional Commercial, The Comprehensive Plan describes the Regional Commercial category as intensive commercial areas intended to draw customers from the County at large and other outlying areas. Regional shopping centers and major commercial areas will be designated with this classification, The Neighborhood Commercial classification designates small-scale neighborhood-serving retail and office use. Community Commercial designates areas for retail, service and office establishments intended to serve several neighborhoods. Recommendation: The proposed site is bound by a manufactured home park to the west and hills to the south and east. These constraints, and the size of the subject property, will limit development in this area to the subject site. The Neighborhood Commercial designation does not appear appropriate in this instance because the site will not serve a single neighborhood. Further, at 3 acres, the site is large enough to support commercial businesses that will not fit into the NeighborhoodCommercial classification, either by size or intensity. Conversely, the Regional Commercial designation is perhaps too intense for this particular site. Staff recommends designating the property Community Commercial and applying the B-2 zone, which will allow more flexibility and marketability to the site, but will limit future impacts of development that would be allowed under the Regional Commercial designation and B-3 zone. (See Attachment 2 for application materials, SENA documentation and related maps) August 14, 2003 Page 4 of Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments CPA-03-03 Applicant: Thomas Smith Request; Change the land use designation from High Density Residential to Light Industrial and change zoning from UR-22 to 1-2. Location: West side of Pines Road between the Union Pacific Railroad Right-of-Way and Mansfield Avenue. Site Area: 2.5 acres Existing Use: Vacant Adjacent Uses: Property to the west, across Pines Rd., includes a restaurant, an office and a convenience store. A mobile home court is directly west of the site and the Union Pacific railroad right-of-way adjacent to the south property line. Public Facilities: Public water is available to the site through Irvin Water District. The area is scheduled for sewer construction during 2003; however, the Applicant recently opted out of the County's sewer program. The County would have provided a sewer stub to the property from the sewer extension along Mansfield Avenue and charged the property with a sewer general facility. The Applicant decided to opt out of the program, indicating that he would be responsible to extend a sewer line under the railroad right-of- way to an existing main line. In either case, any new development would be required to connect to the public sewer system. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The property was zoned Restricted Industrial in 1976, which would have allowed construction of a commercial/industrial development, In 2001, Spokane County designated the property High Density Residential and followed with a UR- 22 zoning designation in 2002. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The Interim Comprehensive Plan designates a large area west of Pines and north of the railroad right-of-way High Density Residential. This category allows for multi-family apartments and office uses. Land on the east side of Fines is designated Community Center, an intense mixed-use area. Property to the south, including the railroad property, is designated Light Industrial. The Comprehensive Plan states that Light Industrial category"is intended for industrial areas that have a special emphasis and attention given to aesthetics, landscaping and internal and community compatibility". Office and commercial uses that support and compliment the industrial areas are allowed. Recommendation: Change property to Light Industrial and zone 1-2, consistent with previous 1976 zoning and policies within the interim Comprehensive Plan_ (See Attachment 3 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) August 14, 2003 Page 5 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensfve Plan Amendments CPA-03-04 Applicant: Doug Lydig (John Sweitzer, Agent) Request: Change property from Low Density Residential to Light industrial and zoning from UR-7 to 1-2. Location: Golf Dome property at Cataldo Avenue, west of Bradley and adjacent to Beauty Bark. Site Area; 2.57 acres Existing Use: Indoor golf practice facility. Adjacent Uses: Industrial and commercial uses, including a landscape supply business to the east, a UPS trucking facility to the west and scattered residential parcels to the north. Public Facilities: Public sewer won't be available to the site until 2005. Public water is supplied by Spokane County Water District tslo, 3. The site is accessed by a public road. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The site was rezoned from 1-2 to 8-3 by Spokane County in 1994 to allow for construction of the indoor golf facility and pro shop. In 2001, Spokane County designated the property Low Density Residential and followed with a UR-7 zoning designation in 2002. Comprehensive Piangoning Analysis: The subject property is surrounded on three sides by Light Industrial property, with Low-Density Residential property to the north The requested Light Industrial designation is consistent with the surrounding designations. Recommendation: Change land use designation to Light Industrial and change zoning to 1-2. (See Attachment 4 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) CPA-03-05 Applicant: Dave Nerren (Lexington Hornes) Request: Change property from Low Density Residential to High Density Residential and change zoning from UR-3.5 to UR-22. Location: Between Broadway and Cataldo Avenue, west of Pines Road. Site Areae 3 acres August 14,2003 Page 6 of 9 Staff Report 2303 Comprehensive Plan Amendments Existing Use: Largely vacant except for a single-family dwelling. Adjacent Uses: Residential/vacant land to the west, single-family residential to the north and east Public Facilities; The property has public sewer available; water is provided by Modem Electric Water Company. Access to the site is from Broadway Avenue, a four lane principal arterial. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The subject property has been zoned single-family residential for many years. Property directly east received a zone change to UR-22 in 1975 and is designated High Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The subject site is located within a transition area between single-family residential and office uses. Property directly east is designated High Density Residential while property to the west and north is designated Low Density Residential; property south, across Broadway, is designated Medium Density Residential and zoned UR-22, The request is consistent with Policies UL.2.16, UL.2.20 and Goal UL.7 of the Urban Land Use chapter of the Interim Comprehensive Plan. Recommendation: Change property to High Density Residential and change zoning to UR-22. (See Attachment 5 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related reaps.) CPA-03-06 Applicant: Harold Sarrf Request: Change property from Low Density Residential to High Density Residential_ Location: North side of Broadway, west of Evergreen Road between Blake and Manner Rd. Site Area: 5+ acres Existing Zoning!Land Use: The property is currently zoned UR-22 and is developed with a independent retirement complex called Broadway Court Estates, The Applicant is requesting to expand the facility to the east, into vacant residential property. Adjacent Uses: The site is surrounded by the following uses and zoning districts: north — vacant lend zoned UR-3.5; south — Broadway Avenue, church and single family zoned UR- .5; east— single family residential zoned UR-3.5; and west— unimproved Blake Road and Blake elementary playfields zoned UR-3.5. August 14, 2003 Page 7 of 9 Staff Report 2oon Comprehensive Plan Amendments Public Facilities: The site is currently served with water by Vera Water and Power and is connected to public sewer.. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The majority of the proposed site was zoned UR-22 in 1993 to allow for the development of the retirement facility. In 2001, Spokane County designated the property Low Density Residential but did riot change the UR-22 zoning. Therefore, the existing Comprehensive Plan designation is not consistent with the current zone and use of the property. The proposed expansion area to the east Is designated Low Density Residential and zoned UR-3.5. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: It appears that the County erred in designating the subject property Low Density Residential in 2001. The expansion area to the east would not have a significant impact on the neighborhood and is consistent with Comprehensive Plan Policy UL 2.17. Recommendation: Change the entire site to High Density Residential, including the separate parcel fronting Broadway and surrounded by the subject property. Apply the UR- 22 zone to the expansion area. (See Attachment 6 for application materials, SEA documentation and related maps.) CPA-03-07 Applicant: P &T Partners (John Peterson, Agent) Request: Change property from Low-Density Residential to High-Density Residential on the western portion and Community Commercial on the eastern portion. The requested zoning is UR-22 on the western portion and B-2 on the eastern portion, Location: The property is located on the west side of Barker Road, between Boone and Sharp Avenue. Site Area: Total area is about 3 acres, which will be split approximately in half by the Community Commercial/High Density Residential designations. Existing Use: The eastern portion is developed with a convenience store/service station and fast food restaurant. The western portion is vacant, Adjacent Uses: Property to the north is currently being developed into a R.V.}Boat storage facility; south is Washington State D.C.T. property (part of the 1-90/Barker interchange); east and west is residential. Public Facilities: Water is served by Consolidated Irrigation District#19; access is via public roads maintained by Spokane County. The existing convenience store/fast food restaurant is connected to the County's sewer line on Barker Rd. by a private 2n line. August 14, 2X Page 8 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendmerits Development of the western portion may require connection to the County's sewer line to the west, which is yet to be constructed. Kevin Cooke, Spokane County Utilities, informed the Community Development Staff that a line will be constructed about 1000` east of the Flora and Mission intersection, The developer of the subject property would be required to extend sewer to this location, rather than east to Barker Road. Engineering issues aside, future development on the site would be required to connect to the County's public sewer system. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The property was converted to 1-2 zoning in 1957, 1958 and 1971. The convenience store was constructed in 2000. In 2001, Spokane County designated the area Low-Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan Map and applied the UR-7 zone. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The existing use of the property is not consistent with the current Low-Density Residential designation and UR-7 zoning. The requested Community Commercial designation for the eastern portion of the site is consistent with the existing use. The Comprehensive Plan describes Community Commercial as 'areas for retail, service and office establishments intended to serve several neighborhoods". Policy UL_2.15 encourages the location of medium and high density residential categories near commercial areas and public open spaces and on sites with good access to arterials_ Policy IJL.2.17 encourages multifamily homes to be integrated into or next to neighborhood, community or urban activity centers; and integrated into small, scattered parcels throughout existing residential areas. Recommendation: Community Development staff supports the requested Community Commercial designation for the existing commercial business on the eastern portion of the site. However, staff does not support designating the western portion High Density Residential, but does recommend designating the site Medium Density Residential, This will provide for a better transition between commercial and single-family residential and will have less impact on the existing single-family neighborhood, (See Attachment 7 for application materials, SEA documentation and related maps.)

Yes NAME OF ARTERIAL ROADS:BroadwayAwenue PREVIOUS ZONING/LAND USE DECISIONS None by City of Spokane Valley Previous actions by Spokane County include: CofE's far BLI Change from Urban Category offormer Land Use Plan to LDR of GMA Plan. The Urban Category allowed for UR-22 Zoning, hence the previous zone changes in the area to UR-22. The current GMA Plan class tried the land on the basis of then current use tfrras limiting the property zone to UR 3.5 or UR 7. CHANGED CONNDITIONS What are the changed conditions which warrants this proposed change? • Other properties adjacent to the east and south have similar high-density UR-22 zoning as proposed for the subject property and supporting HDR or MDR land use categories. • The land use pattern is changing in the immediate area to office parks and/or other higher density residential uses. • Adequate infrastructure exist to serve the proposed itstensify of use, including the arterial improvements of Broadway Avenue. PROPOSAL Provide a general description of the proposal The subject property is being developed for an office park and possible assisted living units. The HDR Category would allow UR-22 zoning similar to the adjacent UR-22 zones and thus allow the proposed use. ADJACENT LANA USES Describe existing land uses within the vicinity of the proposal. There are a mixture of land uses within the area. To the east along Broadway, there are offices with some vacant parcels with residential single-family in transition to other UR-22 uses. To the south, there are apartments and a Junior High School and residential single-family exist to the north and west. The present use of the existing site is residential and vacant. PART III Continued COMPREHENSIVE PLAN CONSISTENCY Describe how the proposal is consistent with the comprehensive plan-Cite specific Goals and Policies: UL.2J6 Encourage the location of medium and high-density residential categories near commercial areas and public open spaces and on sites with good access to major arterials. The subject property is located on Broadway Avenue near Pines Rd. which,places the site near commercial uses and on an arterial. UL.2.20 Encourage new developments, including multifamily projects, to be arranged in a pattern of connecting streets and blocks to allow people to get around easily by foot, bicycle, bus or car. .... The subject site can and wilt be designed to take advantage of arterial access as well as focal access street access, thus providing ease of access for both pedestrians, cyclist and motorist. UL.7 Guide efficient development patterns by locating residential development in areas where facilities and services can be provided in a cost-effective and timely fashion. The subject site is located within an area offidi idi services and it is thus cost effective to allow higher intensity development along this arterial in closepr-oximity to other commercial services. Public Facilities Describe availability of public services, including roads, water, sewer, parks and Public Transit. The subject site is served with full services and a recently widened and improved arterial. It is served by public transit on Broadway Avenue. Parks are located across Broadway at Pines Junior High. f4�IMS okaine �e-�. .,1 *11 Department of CommuniDevefepment 4F Valley LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION DATE; August 6, 2003 FILE #: CPA-03-05 APPLICANT; Dwight Hume (agent), Lexington Homes %Dave Nerren (owner) LOCATION: The subject property is located between Broadway and Cataldo Avenue, west of Pines Road, Spokane Valley, WA REQUEST: Comprehensive Plan Map amendment from Low Density Residential to High Density Residential; corresponding zoning map amendment from Urban Residential-3.5 (UR-3.5), to Urban Residential 22 (UR-22),. r rrh/r'tE'f`d'.P`J'j'/'.^drT1:'•/-•s`-.+Y.Nr.'.mt.'I- -'-,f.{`aid`-t+✓/`J�'4`.�-/i.°r_rFd-+.A'-:."..✓`✓`{ " - Background The subject property is located on the north side of Broadway Avenue, south side of Cataldo Avenue approximately G60 feet west of Pines Road in the NE 14 of Section 16, Township 25 North, Range 44 East Whil. The subject property is comprised of approximately 3 acres and is predominantly vacant with a single family dwelling existing on a portion of the property. The site is surrounded by the following uses and zoning districts: north — Cataldo Avenue and zoned UR-3.5; south — Broadway Avenue zoned UR-22; east — residential uses and zoned UR-22; arid west— residential uses and zoned UR-3.5. SEPA Analysis The requested comprehensive plan map and rezone is considered a "non-project" action under SEPA. The applicant does not include provisions for a specific project at this time. The requested rezone, if approved, would result in a wider range of land uses that would be allowed on the subject property. Given the wide range of potential uses, which include high density multi family residential and professional office that would be allowed under the requested UR-22 zoning, it would be extremely difficult to identify specific impacts associated with potential development of the subject property. A more appropriate time to assess the development impacts of this property would be at a future date when a project specific environmental review is conducted. 1 Recommendation Staff recommends that a Determination of Nonsignificance be issued for the proposed comprehensive plan and zoning map amendment. 2 CPA City of Spokane Valley DONATION OF NONSIGNIFICANCE Description of proposal: Request a Comprehensive Plan Map amendment from Low Density Residential to High Density Residential and a rezone from Urban Residential 35,to Urban Residential 22.

The subject property is comprised of approximately 5+ acres and is developed with Broadway Court Estates, which is an independent retirement complex fur senior, on the western portion of the subject property. The easterly portion of the subject property is currently vacant; the applicant proposes to expand the existing use into this area if the comprehensive plan and zoning maps requests are approved. The zoning map and comprehensive plan map are in conflict relative to the western portion of the subject property. The comprehensive plan map designates this area of the property as Low Density Residential, while the western portion is zoned UR-22. The requested change would correct this inconsistency. The site is surrounded by the following uses and zoning districts: north — vacant land zoned UR-3,5; south — Broadway Avenue, church and single family zoned UR-3,5; east — single family residential zoned UR-3.5; and west — unimproved Blake Road and Blake Elementary playfields zoned UR-3.5. SEPA Analysis t The requested comprehensive plan map and rezone is considered a "non-project" action under SEPA. Part of this request will result in the comprehensive plan map and zoning map to be consistent. The applicant does not include provisions for the expansion of the existing facility at this time. The requested rezone, if approved, would presumably result in an expansion of the existing use on the westerly portion of the subject property. A more appropriate time to assess the development impacts of this property would be at a future date when a project specific environmental review is conducted_ Recommendation Staff recommends that a Determination of Nonsignificance be issued for the proposed comprehensive plan and zoning map amendment. 2 p7A-tteo(t" City of Spokane Valley DETERMINATION OF NONSIGNIFICANCE Description of proposal.

SEPA Review Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA — RCW 43.21 C) environmental checklists were required for each proposed comprehensive plan amendment Under SEPA, amendments to the comprehensive plan are considered "non-project actions" which are defined as actions involving decisions on policies, plans, or programs that contain standards controlling use or modification of the environment. Additional environmental review may be required for the actual development of the subject properties. Staff reviewed the environmental checklists and a threshold determination was made for each comprehensive plan amendment request. Determinations of Nonsignificance (DNS) were issued for the requested comprehensive plan amendments on August 2003. The DNS's were published in the city's official newspaper on August 13, 2003 consistent with City of Spokane Valley requirements. Comprehensive Plan Amendment Proposals CPA-03-01 Applicant: Gib Brumback Request: Change the land use designation from Low-Density Residential to Regional Commercial and the zoning from UR-7 (UR-7) to (8-3), Location: 6915 East Montgomery -West of Argonne Rd., on the north side of Montgomery and south of the Union Pacific railroad right-of-way. Site Area: 2.76 acres Existing Use: 15,000 sq. ft. self-storage building, self serve car wash and RV/truck storage. Adjacent Uses: Railroad to the north, commercial to the west, residential to the south. Public Facilities: The property is currently served with public water and sewer and is accessed from a paved, public street_ Previous Land Use(Zoning: The subject property was zoned commercial in 1970. In 2001, Spokane County designated the property Low-Density Residential and applied the August 14, 2003 Page 2 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments UR-7 zone. The request is to re-establish the previous commercial zoning and be consistent with existing uses on subject property. Comprehensive Pian!Zorring Analysis: The interim Comprehensive Plan land use map designates the Argonne corridor between 1-90 and Trent Ave. as a Community Center, which is a higher-intensity, mixed-use area designed to serve two or more neighborhoods, These areas have a mix of uses, including commercial, civic, high-density residential and recreational uses. Existing zoning along the Argonne corridor is largely B-3 and UR-22 transitioning to UR- 3.5. The Applicant requests that the Regional Commercial land use designation be applied to the subject property_ This designation is not consistent with the adjacent Community Center designation. Recommendation Change property to Community Center, consistent with adjacent properties. Apply the B•2 zone consistent with the Phase 1 Development Regulations. All current uses on the property are allowed in the B-2 zone. (See Attachment 1 for application materials, SFPA documentation and related maps.) CPA-03-02 Applicant: Associated Restaurants, Inc. (Richard Repp) Request: Change lard use designation from Neighborhood Commercial to Regional Commercial and zoning from B-1 to 8-3. The application indicates that the property is designated Medium Density residential, which is not correct. Location: South side of Appleway Blvd. across from Dishman Dodge, east of Park Road. Site Area: 3 acres Existing Use: The property is currently vacant. Adjacent Uses: The Rose Haven lvlobile Home Park is located directly west of the subject property, with vacant hillside land to the south and east. Dishman Dodge is located across Appleway to the north. Public Facilities: The subject property is located within East Spokane Water District# 1 (WATER RIGHTS?? The area was sewered by Spokane County in 2001 and is accessed by Appleway Blvd. Previous Land Use/Zoning: In December, 2001, the property was zoned Neighborhood Commercial (B-1) by Spokane County. The Applicant originally requested the County to August 14, 2003 Page 3 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments zone the properly B-3, which was conditionally approved by the Hearing Examiner. This decision was appealed to be Board of County Commissioners, who decided to zone the property B-I in December, 2001. The major issue concerning this property is the potential impact commercial development will have on the Dishrnan Hills Natural Area, located south of the site and the precedent that would be set by allowing commercial development south of Appleway. Spokane County adopted their Comprehensive Plan in November, 2001 and Phase 1 Development Regulations implementing the Comprehensive Plan in January, 2002. The 2001 Comprehensive Plan designated the subject property Medium Density Residential with the Phase 1 Regulations applying the UR-12 zoning designation. The zoning history of the subject property was brought to the City Council's attention prior to the date of incorporation. When the Council adopted the County's Comprehensive Plan, the subject property received the Neighborhood Commercial land use designation. This was followed with a zone change to Neighborhood Commercial, consistent with the decision made by the County Commissioners in December, 2001. Comprehensive PlantZoning Analysis: The entire south side of Appleway Blvd., from Coleman to Sargent Ave., is designated Medium{ Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan map, except for the subject property, which is currently designated Neighborhood Commercial. Property north of Appieway is designated Medium Density Residential and Regional Commercial. The Comprehensive Plan describes the Regional Commercial category as intensive commercial areas intended to draw customers from the County at large and other outlying areas, Regional shopping centers and major commercial areas will be designated with this classification. The Neighborhood Commercial classification designates small-scale neighborhood-serving retail and office use. Community Commercial designates areas for retail, service and office establishments intended to serve several neighborhoods. Recommendation: The proposed site is bound by a manufactured home park to the west and hills to the south and east. These constraints, and the size of the subject property, will limit development in this area to the subject site. The Neighborhood Commercial designation does not appear appropriate in this instance because the site will not serve a single neighborhood. Further, at 3 acres, the site is large enough to support commercial businesses that will not fit into the Neighborhood Commercial classification, either by size or intensity. Conversely, the Regional Commercial designation is perhaps too intense for this particular site. Staff recommends designating the property Community Commercial and applying the B-2 zone, which will allow more flexibility and marketability to the site, but will limit future impacts of development that would be allowed under the Regional Commercial designation and B-3 zone. (See Attachment 2 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) August 14, 2003 Page 4 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments CPA-03-D3 Applicant: Thomas Smith Request Change the land use designation from High Density Residential to Light Industrial and change zoning from UR-22 to 1-2, Location: West side of Pines Road between the Union Pacific Railroad Right-of-Way and Mansfield Avenue. Site Area: 2.5 acres Existing Use: Vacant Adjacent Uses: Property to the west, across Pines Rd., includes a restaurant, an office and a convenience stare. A mobile home court is directly west of the site and the Union Pacific railroad right-of-way adjacent to the south property line. Public Facilities: Public water is available to the site through Irvin Water District. The area is scheduled for sewer construction during 2003; however, the Applicant recently opted out of the County's sewer program. The County would have provided a sewer stub to the property from the sewer extension along Mansfield Avenue and charged the property with a sewer general facility. The Applicant decided to opt out of the program, indicating that he would be responsible to extend a sewer line under the railroad right-of- way to an existing main line. In either case, any new development would be required to connect to the public sewer system. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The property was zoned Restricted industrial in 1976, which would have allowed construction of a commerciallindustrial development_ In 2001, Spokane County designated the property High Density Residential and followed with a UR-- 22 zoning designation in 2002. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The Interim Comprehensive Plan designates a large area west of Pines and north of the railroad right-of-way High Density Residential. This category allows for multi-family apartments and office uses. Land on the east side of Pines is designated Community Center, an intense mixed-use area. Property to the south, including the railroad property, is designated Light Industrial The Comprehensive Plan states that Light Industrial category Llis intended for industrial areas that have a special emphasis and attention given to aesthetics, landscaping and internal and community compatibility". Office and commercial uses that support and compliment the industrial areas are allowed. Recommendation: Change property to Light Industrial and zone 1-2, consistent with previous 1976 zoning and policies within the Interim Comprehensive Plan. (See Attachment 3 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) August 14, 2003 Page 5 ci 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments CPA-03-04 Applicant: Doug Lydig (John Sweitzer, Agent) Request: Change property from Low Density Residential to Light Industrial and zoning from UR-7 to 1-2. Location: Golf Dome property at Cataldo Avenue, west of Bradley and adjacent to Beauty Bark. Site Area: 2.57 acres Existing Use: Indoor golf practice facility. Adjacent Uses: Industrial and commercial uses, including a landscape supply business to the east, a UPS trucking facility to the west and scattered residential parcels to the north. Public Facilities: Public sewer won't be available to the site until 2005. Public water is supplied by Spokane County Water District No. 3_ The site is accessed by a public road. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The site was rezoned from k2 to B-3 by Spokane County in 1994 to allow for construction of the indoor golf facility and pro shop. In 2001, Spokane County designated the property Low Density Residential and followed with a UR-7 zoning designation in 2002. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The subject property is surrounded on three sides by Light Industrial property, with. Low-Density Residential property to the north. The requested Light Industrial designation is consistent with the surrounding designations. Recommendation: Change land use designation to Light Industrial and change zoning to 1-2. (See Attachment 4 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) CPA-in-DS Applicant: Dave Nerren (Lexington Homes) Request: Change property from Low Density Residential to High Density Residential and change zoning from LIR-3.5 to UR-22. Location: Between Broadway and Cataldo Avenue, west of Pines Road. Site Area: 3 acres August 14, 2003 Page 6 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments Existing Use: Largely vacant except for a single-family dwelling. Adjacent Uses: Residential/vacant land to the west, single-family residential to the north and east. Public Facilities: The property has public sewer available; water is provided by Modern Electric Water Company. Access to the site is from BrcadwayAvenue, a four lane principal arterial. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The subject property has been zoned single-family residential for many years. Property directly east received a zone change to UR-22 in 1978 and is designated High Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map. Comprehensive Plan,Zoning Analysis: The subject site is located within a transition area between single-family residential and office uses. Property directly east is designated High Density Residential while property to the west and north is designated Low Density Residential; property south, across Broadway, is designated Medium Density Residential and zoned UR-22. The request is consistent with Policies UL.2.16, UL.2.20 and Goal UL.7 of the Urban Land Use chapter of the Interim Comprehensive Plan. Recommendation: Change property to High Density Residential and change zoning to UR-22, (See Attachment 5 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) CPA-03-06 Applicant Harold Sarff Request: Change property from Low Density Residential to High Density Residential. Location: North side of Broadway, west of Evergreen Read between Blake and !Varner Rd, Site Area: 5f acres Existing ZoninglLartd Use: The property is currently zoned UR-22 and is developed with a independent retirement complex called Broadway Court Estates, The Applicant is requesting to expand the facility to the east, into vacant residential property. Adjacent Uses: The site is surrounded by the following uses and zoning districts: north — vacant land zoned UR-3.5; south 4 Broadway Avenue, church and single family zoned UR- 3.5; east— single family residential zoned UR-3.5; and west— unimproved Blake Road and Blake elementary playfields zoned UR-3.5, August 14, 2003 Page 7 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments Public Facilities: The site is currently served with water by Vera Water and Power and is connected to pubtic sewer. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The majority of the proposed site was zoned UR-22 in 1998 to allow for the development of the retirement facility. In 2001, Spokane County designated the property Low Density Residential but did not change the UR-22 zoning. Therefore, the existing Comprehensive Plan designation is not consistent with the current zone and use of the property. The proposed expansion area to the east is designated Low Density Residential and zoned UR-3.5. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: It appears that the County erred in designating the subject property Low Density Residential in 2001. The expansion area to the east would not have a significant impact on the neighborhood and is consistent with Comprehensive Plan Policy UL 2.17. Recommendation: Change the entire site to High Density Residential, including the separate parcel fronting Broadway and surrounded by the subject property. Apply the UR- 22 zone to the expansion area. (see Attachment 6 for application materials, SEPA documentation arid related maps) CPA-03-07 Applicant: P &T Partners (John Peterson, Agent) Request: Change property from Low-Density Residential to High-Density Residential on the western portion and Community Commercial on the eastern portion. The requested zoning is UR-22 on the western portion and B-2 on the eastern portion. Location: The property is located on the west side of Barker Road, between Boone and Sharp Avenue. Site Area: Total area is about 3 acres, which will be split approximately in half by the Community Commercial/High Density Residential designations. Existing Use: The eastern portion is developed with a convenience store/service station and fast food restaurant. The western portion is vacant. Adjacent Uses: Property to the north is currently being developed into a R.VJBoat storage facility; south is Washington Stale D.O.T. property (part of the 1-90/Barker interchange); east and west is residential. Public Facilities: Water is served by Consolidated Irrigation District#19; access is via public roads maintained by Spokane County. The existing convenience store/fast food restaurant is connected to the Courity's sewer line on Barker Rd. by a private 2" line. August 14, 2003 Page 8 cf 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments Development of the western portion may require connection to the County's sewer line to the west, which is yet to be constructed. Kevin Cooke, Spokane County Utilities, informed the Community Development Staff that a line will be constructed about 1 DO0' east of the Flora and Mission intersection. The developer of the subject property would be required to extend sewer to this location, rather than east to Barker Road. Engineering issues aside, future development on the site would be required to connect to the County's public sewer system. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The property was converted to 1-2 zoning in 1957, 1958 and 1971. The convenience store was constructed in 2000. in 2001, Spokane County designated the area Low-Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan Map and applied the UR-7 zone. Comprehensive PlantZoning Analysis: The existing use of the property is not consistent with the current Low-Density Residential designation and UR-7 zoning. The requested Community Commercial designation for the eastern portion of the site is consistent with the existing use. The Comprehensive Plan describes Community Commercial as "areas for retail, service and office establishments intended to serve several neighborhoods". Policy UL.2.16 encourages the location of medium and high density residential categories near commercial areas and public open spaces and on sites with good access to arterials. Policy UL.2.17 encourages multifamily homes to be integrated into or next to neighborhood, community or urban activity centers; and integrated into small, scattered parcels throughout existing residential areas. Recommendation: Community Development staff supports the requested Community Commercial designation for the existing commercial business on the eastern portion of the site. However, staff does not support designating the western portion High Density Residential, but does recommend designating the site Medium Density Residential. This will provide for a better transition between commercial and single-family residential and will have less impact on the existing single-family neighborhood.

The westerly portion of the subject property is currently vacant; the applicant proposes to construct multi family dwellings in this area if the comprehensive plan and zoning maps requests are approved. The site is surrounded by the following uses and zoning districts: north — vacant land and residential zoned UR-3.5 and 1-2; south — Boone Avenue and 1-90 interchange; east Barker Road and residential uses zoned UR-3.5; and west —residential uses zoned UR-- 3.5. The existing development on the site was approved by Spokane County in 2000. At the time of the development approvals, the easterly portion of the property was zoned 1-2 by the County, which allowed commercial and retail uses. The existing use is now considered a "nonconforming' use under the city's zoning code 1 SEPA Analysis The requested comprehensive plan map and rezone is considered a "non-project" action under SEPA. This request will result in what could be considered a correction to the comprehensive plan map and zoning map to the eastern portion of the subject property that was developed with the commercial and retail uses_ The applicant does not include specific provisions for the construction of the multi family portion of this proposal. The requested rezone, if approved, would likely result in development proposal for the westerly portion of the subject property. A more appropriate time to assess the environmental impacts of a development on this property would be at a time when a project specific environmental review is conducted. Recommendation Staff recommends that a Determination of Nonsignificance be issued for the proposed comprehensive plan and zoning map amendment 2 („Pitt'°F.

LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION .00,0vailey Staff Report Subject: 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendment Proposals Hearing Date: August 28, 2003 Staff: Greg McCormick, AICP — Long Range Planning Manager Scott Kuhta, AICP — Long Range Planner Marina Sukup, AICP --Community. Development. Director Background The Spokane Valley Interim Comprehensive Plan includes an annual amendment cycle that runs from July 2nd to July 1st of the following year. Applications received prior to July 1't are considered by the Planning Commission in August and September, with a recommendation forwarded to the City Council in later September or early October_ A decision by the City Council is lo be made no later than December of each year. All parts of the Comprehensive Plan can be amended during the annual cycle. The Community Development Department received 7 requests for site-specific Comprehensive Plan amendments for 2003. Sites that are approved for a comprehensive plan amendment will automatically receive a zoning designation that is consistent with the new land use designation. Attachments to this report include application materials, SEPA documentation, land use maps and zoning maps to assist the Commission's review. Notice The Community Development Department placed advertisements in the Spokesman- Review on June 5, 7, 12 and 14, 2003, notifying the public that comprehensive plan amendment applications would be accepted until July 1, 2003. On August 13, 2003, notice Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments of the Planning Commission's public hearing was placed in the Spokesman-Review, Each site was posted with a "Notice of Land Use Application" sign, which included a map and description of the proposal. Finally, individual notice of the proposals was mailed to all property owners within 400 feet of each amendment. SEPA Review Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA T RCW 43_21C) environmental checklists were required for each proposed comprehensive plan amendment. Under SEPA, amendments to the comprehensive plan are considered "non-project actions"which are defined as actions involving decisions on policies, plans, or programs that contain standards controlling use or modification of the environment. Additional environmental review may be required for the actual development of the subject properties. Staff reviewed the environmental checklists and a threshold determination was made for each comprehensive plan amendment request. Determinations of Nonsignificance (DNS) were issued for the requested comprehensive plan amendments on August 8, 2003. The DNS's were published in the city's official newspaper on August 13, 2003 consistent with City of Spokane Valley requirements. Comprehensive Plan Amendment Proposals CPA-03.01 Applicant: Gib Brumback Request: Change the land use designation from Low-Density Residential to Regional Commercial and the zoning from UR-7 (UR-7) to (P-3). Location: 8915 East Montgomery - West of Argonne Rd., on the north side of Montgomery and south of the Union Pacific railroad right-of-way. Site Area: 2.76 acres Existing Use: 15,000 sq. ft self-storage building, self serve car wash and R1lltruck storage. Adjacent Uses: Railroad to the north, commercial to the west, residential to the south. Public Facilities: The property is currently served with public water and sewer and is accessed from a paved, public street. Previous Land UselZoning: The subject property was zoned commercial in 1970. In 2001, Spokane County designated the property Low-Density Residential and applied the August 14, 2003 Page 2 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments UR-7 zone The request is to re-establish the previous commercial zoning and be consistent with existing uses on subject property. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The interim Comprehensive Plan land use map designates the Argonne corridor between 1-90 and Trent Ave. as a Community Center, which is a higher-intensity, mixed-use area designed to serve two or more neighborhoods. These areas have a mix of uses, including commercial, civic, high-density residential and recreational uses. Existing zoning along the Argonne corridor is largely B-3 and UR-22 transitioning to UR- 3,5. The Applicant requests that the Regional Commercial land use designation be applied to the subject property. This designation is not consistent with the adjacentCommunity Center designation. Recommendation Change property to Community Center, consistent with adjacent properties. Apply the B-2 zone consistent with the Phase 1 Development Regulations. All current uses on the property are allowed in the B-2 zone. (See Attachment 1 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) CPA-03-02 Applicant: Associated Restaurants, Inc. (Richard Repp) Request: Change land use designation from Neighborhood Commercial to Regional Commercial and zoning from B-I to B-3_ The application indicates that the property is designated Medium Density residential, which is not correct_ Location: South side of Appleway Blvd. across from Dishman Dodge, east of Park Road. Site Area: 3 acres Existing Use: The property is currently vacant. Adjacent Uses: The Rose Haven Mobile Home Park is located directly west of the subject property, with vacant hillside land to the south and east. Dishman Dodge is located across Appleway to the north. Public Facilities: The subject property is located within East Spokane Water District# t (WATER RIGHTS?? The area was sewered by Spokane County in 2001 and is accessed by Appleway Blvd. Previous Land UselZoning: 1n December, 2D01, the property was zoned Neighborhood Commercial (B-1) by Spokane County. The Applicant originally requested the County to August 14, 2003 Page 3 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments zone the property B-3, which was conditionally approved by the Hearing Examiner. This decision was appealed to be Board of County Commissioners, who decided to zone the property B-1 in December, 2001. The major issue concerning this property is the potential impact commercial development will have on the Dishnian Hills Natural Area, located south of the site and the precedent that would be set by allowing commercial development south of Appleway. Spokane County adopted their Comprehensive Plan in November, 2001 and Phase 1 Development Regulations implementing the Comprehensive Plan in January, 2002. The 2001 Comprehensive Plan designated the subject property Medium Density Residential with the Phase 1 Regulations applying the UR.-12 zoning designation. The zoning history of the subject property was brought to the City Council's attention prior to the date of incorporation. When the Council adopted the County's Comprehensive Plan, the subject property received the Neighborhood Commercial land use designation. This was followed with a zone change to Neighborhood Commercial, consistent with the decision made by the County Commissioners in December, 20101. Comprehensive Plan.!2oning Analysis: The entire south side of Appleway Blvd., from Coleman to Sargent Ave., is designated Medium Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan map, except for the subject property, which is currently designated Neighborhood Commercial. Properly north of Appleway is designated Medium Density Residential and Regional Commercial. The Comprehensive Plan describes the Regional Commercial category as intensive commercial areas intended to draw customers from the County at large and other outlying areas. Regional shopping centers and major commercial areas will be designated with this classification. The Neighborhood Commercial classification designates small-scale neighborhood-serving retail and office use. Community Commercial designates areas for retail, service and office establishments intended to serve several neighborhoods. Recommendation: The proposed site is bound by a manufactured home park to the west and hills to the south and east. These constraints, and the size of the subject property, will limit development in this area to the subject site. The Neighborhood Commercial designation does not appear appropriate in this instance because the site will not serve a single neighborhood. Further, at 3 acres, the site is large enough to support commercial businesses that will not fit into the Neighborhood Commercial classification, either by size or intensity. Conversely, the Regional Commercial designation is perhaps too intense for this particular site. Staff recommends designating the property Community Commercial and applying the B-2 zone, which will allow more flexibility and marketability to the site, but will limit future impacts of development that would be allowed under the Regional Commercial designation and B-3 zone. (See Attachment 2 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) August 14, 2D03 Page 4 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments CPA-03-03 Applicant: Thomas Smith Request: Change the land use designation from High Density Residential to Light Industrial and change zoning from UR-22 to 1-2. Location: West side of Pines Road between the Union Pacific Railroad Right-of-Way and Mansfield Avenue. Site Area: 2.5 acres Existing Use; Vacant Adjacent Uses: Property to the west, across Pines Rd., includes a restaurant, an office and a convenience store. A mobile home court is directly west of the site and the Union Pacific railroad right-of-way adjacent to the south property line. Public Facilities; Public water is available to the site through Irvin Water District. The area is scheduled for sewer construction during 2003: however, the Applicant recently opted out of the County's sewer program. The County would have provided a sewer stub to the property from the sewer extension along Mansfield Avenue and charged the property with a sewer general facility. The Applicant decided to opt out of the program, indicating that he would be responsible to extend a sewer line under the railroad right-of- way to an existing main line. in either case, any new development would be required to connect to the public sewer system. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The property was zoned Restricted Industrial in 1976, which would have allowed construction of a commercialtindustrial development. In 2001, Spokane County designated the property High Density Residential and followed with a UR-- 22 zoning designation in 2002, Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The Interim Comprehensive Plan designates a large area west of Pines and north of the railroad right-of-way High Density Residential. This category allows for multi-family apartments and office uses. Land on the east side of Pines is designated Community Center, an intense mixed-use area. Property to the south, including the railroad property, is designated Light Industrial. The Comprehensive Plan states that Light Industrial category is intended for industrial areas that have a special emphasis and attention given to aesthetics, landscaping and internal and community compatibility". Office and commercial uses that support and compliment the industrial areas are allowed. Recommendat-lore Change property to Light Industrial and zone 1-2, consistent with previous 1976 zoning and policies within the Interim Comprehensive Plan. (See Attachment 3 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) August 14, 2003 Page 6 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive plan Amendments CPA-03-04 Applicant: Doug Lydig (John Sweitzer, Agent) Request: Change property from Low Density Residential to Light Industrial and zoning from UR-7 to 1-2. Location: Golf Dome property at Cataldo Avenue, west of Bradley and adjacent to Beauty Bark. Site Area: 2.57 acres Existing Use: Indoor golf practice facility. Adjacent Uses: Industrial and commercial uses, including a landscape supply business to the east, a UPS trucking facility to the west and scattered residential parcels to the north. Public Facilities: Public sewer won't be available to the site until 2005. Public water is supplied by Spokane County Water District No. 3. The site is accessed by a public road. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The site was rezoned from 1-2 to B-3 by Spokane County in 1994 to allow for construction of the indoor golf facility and pro shop. In 2001, Spokane County designated the property Low Density Residential and followed with a UR-7 zoning designation in 2002. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The subject property is surrounded on three sides by Light Industrial property, with Low-Density Residential property to the north_ The requested Light Industrial designation is consistent with the surrounding designations. Recommendation: Change land use designation to Light Industrial and change zoning to 1-2. (See Attachment 4 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) CPA-03-05 Applicant: Dave Nerren (Lexington Homes) Request: Change property from Low Density Residential to High Density Residential and change zoning from UR-3.5 to UR-22. Location: Between Broadway and Cateldo Avenue, west of Pines Road. Site Area: 3 acres August 14. 2003 Page 6 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments Existing Use: Largely vacant except for a single-family dwelling. Adjacent Uses: Residentiallvacant land to the west, single-family residential to the north and east. Public Facilities: The property has public sewer available; water is provided by Modern Electric Water Company. Access to the site is from Broadway Avenue, a four lane principal arterial. Previous Land Use{Zoning: The subject property has been zoned single-family residential for many years. Property directly east received a zone change to UR-22 in 1978 and is designated High Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map_ Comprehensive PlanfZoning Analysis: The subject site is located within a transition area between single-family residential and office uses. Property directly east is designated High Density Residential while property to the west and north is designated Low Density Residential; property south, across Broadway, is designated Medium Density Residential and zoned UR-22. The request is consistent with Policies UL.2.15, UL.2.20 and Goal UL.7 of he Urban Land Use chapter of the Interim Comprehensive Plan. Recommendation: Change property to High Density Residential and change zoning to UR-22. (See Attachment 5 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps,) CPA-03-O6 Applicant: Harold Salt Request: Change property from Low Density Residential to High Density Residential. Location: North side of Broadway, west of Evergreen Road between Blake and Maurer Rd. Site Area: 5+ acres Existing Zoning!Land Use: The property is currently zoned UR-22 and is developed with a independent retirement complex called Broadway Court Estates. The Applicant is requesting to expand the facility to the east, into vacant residential property. Adjacent Uses: The site is surrounded by the following uses and zoning districts: north— vacant land zoned UR-3,5; south — Broadway Avenue, church and single family zoned UR- 3.5; east-- single family residential zoned UR-3.5, and west— unimproved Blake Road and Blake elementary playtields zoned UR-3.5. August 14, 2003 Page 7 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan Amendments Public Facilities: The site is currently served with water by Vera Water and Power and is connected to public sewer. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The majority of the proposed site was zoned UR-22 in 1998 to allow for the development of the retirement facility. In 2001, Spokane County designated the property Low Density Residential but did not change the UR-22 zoning. Therefore, the existing Comprehensive Plan designation is not consistent with the current zone and use of the property. The proposed expansion area to the east is designated Low Density Residential and zoned UR-3.5. Comprehensive PianlZoning Analysis: It appears that the County erred in designating the subject property Low Density Residential in 2001, The expansion area to the east would not have a significant impact on the neighborhood and is consistent with Comprehensive Plan Policy UL 2.17. Recommendation: Change the entire site to High Density Residential, including the separate parcel fronting Broadway and surrounded by the subject property. Apply the UR- 22 zone to the expansion area. (See Attachment 0 for application materials, SEPA documentation and related maps.) CPA-03-07 Applicant: P &7 Partners (John Peterson, Agent) Request: Change property from Low-Density Residential to High-Density Residential on the western portion and Community Commercial on the eastern portion. The requested zoning is UR-22 on the western portion and B-2 on the eastern portion. Location: The property is located on the west side of Barker Road, between Boone and Sharp Avenue. Site Area: Total area is about 3 acres, which will be split approximately in half by the Community Commercial/High Density Residential designations. Existing Use: The eastern portion is developed with a convenience store/service station and fast food restaurant. The western portion is vacant. Adjacent Uses: Property to the north is currently being developed into a R.V./Boat storage facility; south is Washington State D.O.T. property (part of the I-9OlBarker interchange); east and west is residential. Public Facilities: Water is served by Consolidated Irrigation District #19; access is via public roads maintained by Spokane County, The existing convenience store/fast food restaurant is connected to the County's sewer line on Barker Rd. by a private 2° line. August 14, 2003 Page 8 of 9 Staff Report 2003 Comprehensive Plan .Amendments Development of the western portion may require connection to the County's sewer line to the west, which is yet to be constructed. Kevin Cooke, Spokane County Utilities, informed the Community Development Staff that a line will be constructed about 1000' east of the Flora and Mission intersection. The developer of the subject property would be required to extend sewer to this location, rather than east to Barker Road. Engineering issues aside, future development on the site would be required to connect to the County's public sewer system. Previous Land Use/Zoning: The property was converted to 1-2 zoning in 1957, 1958 and 1971. The convenience store was constructed in 2000. In 2001, Spokane County designated the area Low-Density Residential on the Comprehensive Plan Map and applied the UR-7 zone. Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Analysis: The existing use of the property is not consistent with the current Low-Density Residential designation and UR-7 zoning. The requested Community Commercial designation for the eastern portion of the site is consistent with the existing use. The Comprehensive Plandescribes Community Commercial as "areas for retail, service and office establishments intended to serve several neighborhoods". Policy UL.2.16 encourages the location of medium and high density residential categories near commercial areas and public open spaces and on sites with good access to arterials. Policy UL_2.17 encourages multifamily homes to be integrated into or next to neighborhood, community or urban activity centers; and integrated into small, scattered parcels throughout existing residential areas_ Recommendation: Community Development staff supports the requested Community Commercial designation for the existing commercial business on the eastern portion of the site. However, staff does not support designating the western portion High Density Residential, but does recommend designating the site Medium Density residential. This will provide for a better transition between commercial and single-family residential and will have less impact on the existing single-family neighborhood.

Included in the statewide goals is RCIN 35.70A020(11), which states in part, 'Citizen participation and coordination. Encourage the involvement of citizens in the planning process .._". Citizen participation is further addressed in RCW 36.70A.035 Public Participation — Notice Provisions and 35,70A,140 Comprehensive Plans— Ensure Public Participation. RCW 36.70A.140 of GMA requires each city planning under GMA to "establish and broadly disseminate to the public a public participation program". This section of GMA further requires the city provide For 'early and continuous public participation in the development' of the city's comprehensive plan or any amendments. The Washington Administrative Code 365-195-600(2) (WAC) provides recommendations for meeting the public participation requirements of the GMA The specific public participation program is contained in the attached document ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Public Participation Program. STAFF CONTACT: Marina Sukup, AICP, Community Development Director Greg McCormick,AICP, Long Range Planning Manager Scott Kuhta, AICP, Long Range Planner draft it,9\141144 Ono ne .00•117alley COMPREHENSIVE(SIVE PLAN Public Participation Program RCVV 36.7QA.140 of the Washington Growth Management Act requires that each city"establish and broadly disseminate to the public a public participation program ... for early and continuous public participation in the development" of the city's Comprehensive Plan. Consistent with the recommendations of the GMA which emphasize the involvement of the broadest cross-section of the community, including the involvement of groups riot previously involved, the City of Spokane Valley adopts the following program for citizen participation in the planning process: 1. Visioning Process —This process provides Spokane Valley citizens en opportunity to establish a framework and context upon which the comprehensive plan will be based. Planning Commission meetings will provide the forum for the initial community visioning process A draft 'Vision" will be tested for consistency during the development of the Plan as the community identifies priorities and implementation strategies and updated accordingly. The ultimate "Vision"will beestablished at the conclusion of the planning process as a result of community participation. 2.
