City Manager's Budget Message
2016 Annual Budget
Dear Citizens, Mayor and City Council of Spokane Valley:
Sound Financial Position
It is with great pleasure that I present the attached 2016 proposed budget for the City of Spokane
Valley. The City of Spokane Valley remains financially strong and continues to benefit from a
history of prudent financial decisions since our 2003 incorporation.Responsible budgeting and
restrained spending has helped us achieve key Fiscal Policies and maintain an ending General
Fund Balance equivalent to six-months of general fund operations.
The City of Spokane Valley is unique in many of its financial policies and a great example of
how a City provides key services to the community while holding down taxes,fees and other
charges. Our per capita employee count and personnel expenses are among the lowest(if not the
lowest)of comparable size cities in the state and around the U.S.
The City's top two budget priorities are law enforcement and road maintenance,in that order. To
ensure continued financial stability,it is imperative the City's recurring annual expenses remain
in-check. We must continue to limit recurring expenditures at levels less than or equal to our
annual revenues.
Beyond recurring operating activity however,due to our excellent financial condition,we are
afforded the opportunity to use the portion of the General Fund balance that exceeds 50%for
nonrecurring expenditures in pursuit of programs important to the City Council and community.
Recent examples include General Fund contributions to the Appleway Trail(University to Pines
Rd.), Sullivan Road West Bridge Replacement project,the Appleway road landscaping and a
cash"down payment"for construction of a new City Hall.
Pavement Preservation
Beginning in 2012,the City initiated spending of general fund,special revenue fund and capital
project fund revenues and reserves for the purpose of aiding street preservation.In 2016,our
citizens will again see an aggressive program of repaving our roadways. Some may question
paving roads that"don't look so bad." The truth is the best time to repave is before a road
deteriorates to the point that full reconstruction is necessary.Full reconstruction can cost
substantially more than pavement preservation such as crack sealing or grinding and repaving.
This is why the City of Spokane Valley has committed critical financial resources to preservation
of our transportation infrastructure. We hope you are as proud of our fine road system as we are!
Fiscal Policies
The Fiscal Policies adopted by the City Council are important for the long-range fiscal strength
of Spokane Valley. These policies appropriately dictate if the economic conditions deteriorate,
future budget reductions may be triggered.
Financial Management—The City proposes to:
1. Maintain basic service levels with minimal resources to achieve success.
2. Minimize personnel costs/overhead by continuing to contract for many services.
3. Continue the six-year Business Plan process.
4. Leverage City funds with grant opportunities.
5. Minimize City debt with a pay as you go philosophy.
o The State of Washington sets the maximum level of allowable debt for
cities based on assessed value of property.The City of Spokane Valley
currently utilizes only 1.20%of its total debt capacity,and more
importantly,only 6.02%of non-voted bond capacity.This is extremely
low debt.
6. Strive to prioritize spending in the annual budget process and minimize mid-year
addition of projects and appropriations.
Financial Objectives-The City's financial objectives are:
1. Maintain a minimum General Fund Ending Balance of 50%of recurring
expenditures,which is the equivalent of six months of general fund operations.
2. If necessary,utilize the Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund($5.5 million)to
maintain ending fund balance minimum.
3. Commitment to the strategy the Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund will not
reduce below$3.27 million(60%of$5.5 million).
4. Maintain the 2016 property tax assessment the same as 2015 with the exception of
new construction.As in the previous six years,the City will forego the potential
annual increase to property tax allowable by RCW 84.52.050.We anticipate this will
result in a levy of$11,279,200 plus estimated new construction of$200,000 for a
total levy of$11,479,200.The allowable potential increase will be banked for future
2
use as provided by law.This effectively makes the 7th year in a row that we have not
increased our City property tax assessment.
5. Grow our economy so the existing tax base can support basic programs.
Commitment—By committing to these policies and the checks and balances they afford,the
City will ensure financial sustainability well into the future.
2016 Budget Highlights
The 2016 Budget recognizes the economic realities of our times and the necessity to continue to
operate within our financial means.
City Hall Project:In 2015,the City made the decision to construct a new City Hall at a
cost currently projected at$14.4 million. Having rented a city hall since incorporation,
the fund balance had grown such that a cash"down payment"in the amount of$6.3
million is available for land purchase,design cost and a portion of construction cost.The
balance will be financed with a bond sale of approximately$8.1 million with 98.2%of
annual payments being funded through the existing lease payment for the rented city hall.
The remaining portion of the payment,along with the operation and maintenance cost of
owning our own city hall,will be a recurring cost of the City's general fund.
Pavement Preservation Fund: In the 2012 Budget,Council established the Pavement
Preservation Fund#311. For 2016,projected expenditures for preservation are
$3,000,000. There are not any grant funds anticipated for pavement preservation for
2016. Funding sources for pavement preservation consist of$943,800 that will be
transferred from the General Fund,$67,342 from the Street Fund,$559,786 from the
Civic Facilities Replacement Fund, $365,286 from REET 1 Capital Projects Fund and
$365,286 from REET 2 Special Projects Fund. Most of these transfers are projected to be
sustainable for the foreseeable future.However,the transfer from the Civic Facilities
Replacement fund is not sustainable and is depleted at year end 2016.The total revenues
for street preservation are$2,301,500,which is$748,500 less than projected expenditures
with the remainder coming from Street Preservation fund balance in an effort to be more
aggressive with the preservation program.Because of this,we are currently able to
continue the funding of street preservation through at least 2020.This will require us to
adhere to the budget and continue to utilize grant funds to bolster our own city transfers.
Moderate Growth in Current Operational Expenses/Budget Increase: Investing in the
essential core services identified by the Council and community establishes baseline
costs. Similar to the trend in most jurisdictions,costs and demands for service are
growing while tax revenues are decreasing. Quality service delivery requires ongoing
investment in basic capacity to yield efficient operations. Moderate as it may be,
recurring operational expenses have increased as reflected in the General Fund increase
of 2.79%for 2016.However,excluding additions to recurring expenditures for new
services added since 2012,the General Fund recurring expenditure budget has had an
average annual increase of 1.41%from 2011 to 2016.
3
Staffing Levels: Staffing levels for 2016 will increase slightly to 87.40 employees as
compared to 87.25 in 2015.Taking into consideration we contract for police services and
are served by Fire Districts and a Library District,for a major city we are operating
substantially below the normal employee count at a significantly reduced cost. Spokane
Valley personnel costs are approximately 20%of the total General Fund recurring
expenditures. Comparable cities and counties typically fund personnel costs at about 40%
of their General Fund Budget(after adjusting for police,fire and library personnel,of
which the City of Spokane Valley contracts as noted previously). Spokane Valley staff
levels average about one employee for every 1,068 citizens. Comparable cities' averages
are from one employee for every 160 citizens,to one employee for every 412 citizens.
While the survey is not scientific,the low comparable personnel costs coupled with the
low employee per citizen ratio indicates the City of Spokane Valley is operating at a low,
yet effective staffing level.
Since incorporation,the City has taken a conservative approach to adding new staff.
Spokane Valley continues to have the lowest employee count of any Washington city
with a population of 50,000 or greater. By all comparisons,the City of Spokane Valley is
a lean,productive City government.
Public Safety Costs: In 2016,the Police, Court and Jail related services proposed budget
is$24,703,749 —an amount equal to 215%of anticipated property tax collections
($11,479,200)for the entire year. Council has made a commitment not to reduce public
safety service levels and associated costs in 2016.
Challenges:
Railroad Grade Separation & Quiet Zone Projects:The City has been pursuing funding
for rail grade separation projects for the past several years. The wait for trains is a safety
and quality of life issue and impacts our local economy. Currently the City is pursuing a
federal TIGER VII grant for the Barker and Trent Road Overpass. Other projects
identified include Pines Road Underpass, Park Road Overpass and Sullivan Road
Overpass improvements. The total estimated cost of all four projects is over$83 million–
well beyond the scope of City financing but feasible over the long-term.
Pavement Preservation: Street Preservation needs must be balanced with other needs.
The 2016 Budget achieves this balance.
Grants and Declining Matching Funds: City staff actively pursues funding
commitments from other sources to help pay the cost of needed capital improvements—
roads,bridges, stormwater and parks that benefit the community. In 2016, a total of
$18,444,741 is budgeted for a range of capital projects of which$10,440,763 (56.6%)is
coming from outside grant sources.
4
When the City applies for state and federal grants,the City must provide its share(match)
for these projects. In the past,Real Estate Excise Tax(REET)was used for most of the
City match. In addition to capital construction,the City funds a portion of Pavement
Preservation from REET funds also.
During the past nine years, annual revenue from the REET tax declined from a high of
$2.5 million in 2007,to$960,000 during the worst of the recession,to an estimated$1.6
million in 2016.Depending on availability of Federal, State and Local grants,which have
been declining,the City may reach a point where we have to prioritize preservation
versus capital projects.
Local Street Maintenance Combination of Funding: This fund derives its revenues
from an allocation of the State Motor Vehicle Fuel Tax distributed to cities and towns,
and a 6%city utility tax on telephone usage estimated in 2016 at$2,004,900 and
$2,340,000 respectively. The combination of Fuel Tax and Telephone Utility Tax enables
us to meet the ongoing need for these funds to pay for critical street maintenance
activities such as snow plowing,pot hole repair,crack sealing, sweeping,weed control,
street lighting,traffic signals and a variety of other repairs/improvements. In 2016,
$67,342 will transfer to Pavement Preservation for more substantial repaving projects.
The Budget for 2016
Strong but Guarded. One of the most important tests of fiscal management is the ability of a
municipal enterprise to maintain basic services during an economic downturn.The creation and
maintenance of financial reserves since incorporation has served its intended purpose of
providing opportunity for Spokane Valley to sustain critical public services during turbulent
economic conditions that began in 2008, and from which we may or may not be emerging.The
2016 budget reflects a prudent and guarded increase in continuation of service delivery
capabilities.These increases are carefully considered and well within the means of the City.
Service delivery cannot grow faster than the economic development of the City.
Balanced Budget: Means exactly what it says-expenses have been balanced with known or
reasonably predictable revenues with no increase in property tax or in sales tax rates for the City
(lodging tax rates are generally not paid by residents). The budget is designed to maintain the
healthy,positive fund balance at year-end providing the City's cash flow needs without costly
borrowing. In pursuit of fiscal responsibility, special attention is given to limiting the growth in
new programs and financial commitments.This approach allows available resources to be put
toward sustaining services consistent with the City Council's priorities for 2016 and beyond.
5
Future Concepts:
The budget process is not static and Council,the citizens, and staff must remain vigilant to watch
for economic trends that impact current forecasts. Even as the 2016 budget is adopted,we must
remain mindful of the future economic opportunities and threats that may impact our multi-year
forecast. Examples of potential impacts and adaptive future concepts are as follows:
Retail Strategy.The City is actively engaged in growing our economy. In 2016 we will execute
a retail strategy to support existing retail and encourage new retail to retain local dollars and
attract spending from outside our city limits.
Tourism. The City is engaged with the tourist industry in Spokane Valley including lodging,
dining and shopping sectors. We are planning for the future to attract visitors and enhance our
local tourism economy.
Acknowledgments:
I would like to acknowledge the citizens, City Council and staff for a long history of
conservative spending and prudent fiscal planning. By saving and conserving the taxpayers'
money, and by adopting prudent long-term fiscal policies,the City can provide essential services
and balance its budget for many years to come.
The City Council has set a path to ensure the long-term financial sustainability of the City.The
management staff and employees have worked together to develop Business Plans and 2016
budget recommendations to achieve the Council's goal of sustainability.
The Citizens of Spokane Valley should be proud of the strong financial condition of their City.
We invite your examination and questions regarding the 2016 Budget.

SUBJECT: About the 2016 Budget and Budget Development Process
The budget includes the financial planning and legal authority to obligate public funds. Additionally, the
budget provides significant policy direction by the City Council to the staff and community. As a result, the
City Council, staff and public are involved in establishing the budget for the City of Spokane Valley.
The budget serves four functions:
1. It is a Policy Document
The budget functions as a policy document in that the decisions made within the budget will reflect the
general principles or plans that guide the actions taken for the future. As a policy document, the budget
makes specific attempts to link desired goals and policy direction to the actual day-to-day activities of the
City staff.
2. It is an Operational Guide
The budget of the City reflects its operation. Activities of each City function and organization have been
planned, debated, formalized, and described in the following sections. This process will help to maintain an
understanding of the various operations of the City and how they relate to each other and to the attainment of
the policy issues and goals of the City Council.
3. It is a Link with the General Public
The budget provides a unique opportunity to allow and encourage public review of City operations. The
budget describes the activities of the City,the reason or cause for those activities, future implications, and the
direct relationship to the citizenry.
4. It is a Legally Required Financial Planning Tool
The budget is a financial planning tool, which has been its most traditional use. In this light, preparing and
adopting a budget is a State law requirement of all cities as stated in Title 35A of the Revised Code of
Washington (RCW). The budget must be adopted as a balanced budget and must be in place prior to the
beginning of the City's fiscal year. The budget is the legal authority to expend public moneys and controls
those expenditures by limiting the amount of the appropriation at the fund level. The revenues of the City are
estimated, along with available cash carry-forward,to indicate funds available. The budget takes into account
unforeseen contingencies and provides for the need for periodic adjustments.

2016 BUDGET DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
Historically the City has utilized a budgeting approach that assumed for most functions of government that
the current year's budget was indicative of the base required for the following year. However,with the recent
downturn in the economy and resultant reduction in revenues (most notably the decline in sales taxes), the
2012 through 2016 Budget development processes were amended to consciously review service levels in each
department and determine the appropriate level of funding that meets Council goals relative to available
resources.
The 2016 Budget development process began at the February 17,2015, Council workshop where among other
topics, Council and Staff discussed the budget in general terms. In mid-April 2015 the Finance Department
notified City Departments that their 2016 revenue and expenditure estimates were due by mid-May. Through
the balance of May and early June, the City Manager's office and Finance Department worked to prepare
budget worksheets that were communicated to the City Council at a Budget workshop held June 16, 2015.
Following the workshop, the Finance Department continued work on the budget including refinements of
revenue and expenditure estimates and through July and August, the Finance Department and City Manager
reviewed updated budget projections.
By the time the 2016 Budget is scheduled to be adopted on November 10, 2015,the Council will have had an
opportunity to discuss it on seven separate occasions, including two public hearings to gather input from
citizens:
June 16 Council budget workshop
August 11 Admin report: Estimated 2016 revenues and expenditures
August 25 Public hearing#1 on 2016 revenues and expenditures
September 8 City Manager's presentation of preliminary 2016 Budget
September 22 Public hearing#2 on 2016 Budget
October 13 First reading on ordinance adopting the 2016 Budget
November 10 Second reading on ordinance adopting the 2016 Budget
Once adopted,the final operating budget is published,distributed, and made available to the public.
After the budget is adopted, the City enters a budget implementation and monitoring stage. Throughout the
year, expenditures are monitored by the Finance Department and department directors to ensure that actual
expenditures are in compliance with the approved budget. The Finance Department provides the City
Manager and City Council with monthly reports to keep them abreast of the City's financial condition and
individual department compliance with approved appropriation levels. Any budget amendments made during
the year are adopted by City Council ordinance.
The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts within a fund; however, any revisions that alter
the total expenditures of a fund, or that affect the number of authorized employee positions, salary ranges or
other conditions of employment must be approved by the City Council.
When the City Council determines that it is in the best interest of the City to increase or decrease the
appropriation for a particular fund, it may do so by ordinance adopted by Council after holding one public
hearing.

BUDGET PRINCIPLES
• Department directors have primary responsibility for formulating budget proposals in line with City
Council and City Manager priority direction,and for implementing them once they are approved.
• The Finance Department is responsible for coordinating the overall preparation and administration of the
City's budget. This function is fulfilled in compliance with applicable State of Washington statutes
governing local government budgeting practices.
• The Finance Department assists department staff in identifying budget problems, formulating solutions
and alternatives, and implementing any necessary corrective actions.
• Interfind charges will be based on recovery of costs associated with providing those services.
• Budget amendments requiring City Council approval will occur through the ordinance process at the fund
level prior to fiscal year end.
• The City's budget presentation will be directed at displaying the City's services plan in a
Council/constituent friendly format.
• No long term debt will be incurred without identification of a revenue source to repay the debt. Long
term debt will be incurred for capital purposes only.
• The City will strive to maintain equipment replacement funds in an amount necessary to replace the
equipment at the end of its useful life. Life cycle assumptions and required contributions will be
reviewed annually as part of the budget process. New operations in difficult economic times may make it
difficult to fund this principle in some years.
• The City will pursue an ending general fund balance at a level of no less than 50% of recurring
expenditures. This figure is based upon an evaluation of both cash flow and operating needs.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING AND BUDGETING
Accounting
Accounting records for the City are maintained in accordance with methods prescribed by the State Auditor
under the authority of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW), Chapter 43.09.20, and in compliance with
generally accepted accounting principles as set forth by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board.
Basis of Presentation-Fund Accounting
The accounts of the City of Spokane Valley are organized on the basis of funds,each of which is considered a
separate accounting entity. Each fund is accounted for with a separate set of double-entry accounts that
comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues and expenditures or expenses, as appropriate. The City's
resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds depending on their intended purpose. The
following are the fund types used by the City of Spokane Valley:
9
Governmental Fund Types
Governmental funds are used to account for activities typically associated with state and local government
operations. All governmental fund types are accounted for on a spending or "financial flows" measurement
focus, which means that typically only current assets and current liabilities are included on related balance
sheets. The operating statements of governmental funds measure changes in financial position, rather than net
income. They present increases(revenues and other financing sources)and decreases(expenditures and other
financing uses) in net current assets. There are four governmental fund types used by the City of Spokane
Valley:
1. General Fund
This fund is the primary fund of the City of Spokane Valley. It accounts for all financial resources except
those required or elected to be accounted for in another fund.
2. Special Revenue Funds
These funds account for revenues that are legally restricted or designated to finance particular activities of
the City of Spokane Valley. Special Revenue funds include:
• #101 - Street Fund
• #103 -Paths&Trails Fund
• #104-Hotel/Motel Tax—Tourism Facilities Fund
• #105 -Hotel/Motel Tax Fund
• #106-Solid Waste Fund
• #107-PEG Fund
• #120-CenterPlace Operating Reserve Fund
• #121 -Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund
• #122-Winter Weather Reserve Fund
• #123 -Civic Facilities Replacement Fund
3. Debt Service Funds
These funds account for financial resources which are designated for the retirement of debt. Debt Service
Funds are comprised of the#204—LTGO Debt Service Fund.
4. Capital Project Funds
These funds account for financial resources, which are designated for the acquisition or construction of
general government capital projects. Capital Project Funds include:
• #301 —REET 1 Capital Project Fund
• #302—REET 2 Capital Projects Fund
• #303 - Streets Capital Projects Fund
• #309-Parks Capital Projects Fund
• #310-Civic Facilities Capital Projects Fund
• #311 -Pavement Preservation Fund
• #312—Capital Reserve Fund
• #313—City Hall Construction Fund
10
Proprietary Fund Types
A fifth type of fund classification are the Proprietary Funds that are used to account for activities similar
to those found in the private sector where the intent of the governing body is to finance the full cost of
providing services based on the commercial model which uses a flow of economic resources approach.
Under this approach, the operating statements for the proprietary funds focus on a measurement of net
income (revenues and expenses) and both current and non-current assets and liabilities are reported on
related balance sheets. Their reported fund equity (total net assets) is segregated into restricted,
unrestricted and invested in capital assets classifications. As described below, there are two generic fund
types in this category:
1. Enterprise Funds
These funds account for operations that provide goods or services to the general public and are
supported primarily by user charges. Included in this type of fund is:
• #402—Stormwater Management Fund
• #403—Aquifer Protection Area Fund
2. Internal Service Funds
These funds account for operations that provide goods or services to other departments or funds of the
City. Included in this type of fund is:
• #501 -Equipment Rental and Replacement Fund
• #502-Risk Management Fund
Basis of Accounting
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures are recognized, recorded in the accounting
system and ultimately reported in the financial statements.
• Modified Accrual Basis of Accounting is used for all governmental funds. Modified accrual
recognizes revenues when they become both measurable and available to finance expenditures of the
current period.
• Accrual Basis of Accounting is used for enterprise and internal service funds. Under this system
revenues and expenses are recognized in the period incurred rather than when cash is either received
or disbursed.
Budgets and Budgetary Accounting
Annual appropriation budgets are adopted for all funds with Governmental Funds utilizing a modified
cash basis of accounting for budget purposes,and Proprietary Funds utilizing a working capital approach.
Budgets are adopted at the fund level that constitutes the legal authority for expenditures and annual
appropriations for all funds lapse at the end of the fiscal period.
EXPLANATION OF MAJOR REVENUE SOURCES
General Fund#001
• Property Tax
Property taxes play an essential role in the finances of the municipal budget. State law limits the City to a
$3.60 levy per $1,000 assessed valuation, deducting from there the levy of$1.50 by the Spokane County
Fire Districts #1 and #8, along with deducting $0.50 for the Library District, which leaves the City with
the authority to levy up to$1.60 for its own purposes. The levy amount must be established by ordinance
by November 30th prior to the levy year.
11
• Retail Sales and Use Tax
The sales tax rate for retail sales transacted within the boundaries of the City of Spokane Valley is 8.7%.
The tax that is paid by a purchaser at the point of sale is remitted by the vendor to the Washington
Department of Revenue who then remits the taxes back to the various agencies that have imposed the tax.
The allocation of the 8.7%tax rate to the agencies is as follows:
State of Washington 6.50%
City of Spokane Valley 0.85%
Spokane County 0.15%
Criminal Justice 0.10%
Spokane Public Facilities District 0.10% *
Public Safety 0.10% * 2.20%local tax
Juvenile Jail 0.10% *
Mental Health 0.10% *
Law Enforcement Communications 0.10% *
Spokane Transit Authority 0.60% *
8.70%
*Indicates voter approved sales taxes.
• Criminal Justice Sales Tax
Local Sales Tax for Criminal Justice funding is to be used solely for criminal justice purposes,such as the
City's law enforcement contract. This tax is authorized at 1/10 of 1% of retail sales transacted in the
County. Of the total amount collected, the State distributes 10% of the receipts to Spokane County, with
the remainder allocated on a per capita basis to the County and cities within the County.
• Public Safety Sales Tax
Beginning in 2005, an additional 0.1% voter approved increase in sales tax was devoted to public safety
purposes. This 0.1% was approved by the voters again in August 2009. Of the total amount collected,
the State distributes 60% of the receipts to Spokane County, with the remainder allocated on a per capita
basis to the cities within the County.
• Gambling Tax
Gambling tax revenues must be spent primarily on law enforcement purposes pertaining to gambling.
Funds remaining after necessary expenditures for such enforcement purposes may be used for any general
government purpose.
Gambling taxes are to be paid quarterly to the City, no later than the last day of January, April, July and
October. The City imposes a tax on the following forms of gambling at the following rates: Bingo (5%
gross, less prizes); Raffles (5% gross, less prizes); Punchboards and Pulltabs (5% gross, less prizes);
Amusement Games (2%gross, less prizes); Card playing(6%gross).
• Leasehold Excise Tax
Taxes on property owned by state or local governments and leased to private parties(City's share).
• Franchise Fees
Cable TV is the only franchise fee levied in the City at a rate of 5%of gross revenues. This is a fee levied
on private utilities for the right to use city streets,alleys, and other public properties.
12
• State-Shared Revenues
State-shared revenues are received from liquor sales, and motor vehicle excise taxes. These taxes are
collected by the State of Washington and shared with local governments based on population. State-
shared revenues are distributed on either a monthly or quarterly basis, although not all quarterly revenues
are distributed in the same month of the quarter. The 2015 population figure used in the 2016 Budget is
93,340 as reported by the Office of Financial Management for Washington State on April 1, 2015. This
figure is important when determining distribution of State shared revenues on a per capita basis.
• Fines and Forfeitures/Public Safety
Fines and penalties are collected as a result of Municipal Court rulings and other miscellaneous rule
infractions. All court fines and penalties are shared with the State, with the City, on average, retaining
less than 50%of the amount collected.
• Community Development
Community Development revenues are largely composed of fees for building permits, plan reviews, false
alarms and right of way permits.
• Recreation Program Fees
The Parks and Recreation Department charges fees for selected recreation programs. These fees offset
direct costs related to providing the program.
• CenterPlace Fees
The Parks and Recreation Department charges fees for use of CenterPlace. Uses include regional
meetings, weddings, receptions and banquets. Rental rooms include classrooms, the great room and
dining rooms.
• Investment Interest
The City earns investment interest on sales tax money held by the State of Washington prior to the
distribution of the taxes to the City, as well as on City initiated investments.
Street Fund#101
• Motor Vehicle Fuel Excise Tax(gas tax)
The State of Washington collects a $0.4450 per gallon motor vehicle fuel tax at the pump, which will
increase to$0.4940 per gallon effective July 1, 2016. Of this amount,the State remits a portion of the tax
back to cities on a per capita basis. For 2016 the Municipal Research and Services Center estimates the
distribution back to cities will be $21.57 per person. Based upon a City of Spokane Valley population of
93,340 (per the Washington State Office of Financial Management on April 1, 2015) we anticipate the
City will collect $2,013,400 in 2016. RCW 47.30.050 specifies that .42% of this tax must be expended
for paths and trails activities and based upon the 2016 revenue estimate this computes to $8,500. The
balance of$2,004,900 will be credited to Fund#101 for Street maintenance and operations.
• Telephone Utility Tax
The City of Spokane Valley levied a 6% telephone utility tax via Ordinance #08-014 with collections
beginning in 2009. Telephone companies providing this service pay the tax to the City monthly.
Telephone tax has been estimated at$2.34 million for 2016.
13
Paths& Trails Fund#103
Cities are required to spend .42% of the motor vehicle fuel tax receipts on paths and trails (please see the
explanation for Street Fund#101) which we anticipate will be$8,500 in 2016. Because the amount collected
in any given year is relatively small, it is typical to accumulate State distributions for several years until
adequate dollars are available for a project.
Hotel/Motel Tax—Tourism Facilities Fund#104
The City imposes a 1.3% tax under RCW 67.28.181 on all charges made for the furnishing of lodging at
hotels, motels, and similar establishments (including bed and breakfasts and RV parks) for a continuous
period of less than one month. The revenues generated by this tax may only be used for capital expenditures
for acquiring, constructing, making improvements to or other related capital expenditures for large sporting
venues, or venues for tourism-related facilities.This tax is estimated to generate$357,500 in 2016.
Hotel/Motel Tax Fund#105
The City imposes a 2%tax under RCW 67.28.180 on all charges made for the furnishing of lodging at hotels,
motels, and similar establishments (including bed and breakfasts and RV parks) for a continuous period of
less than one month. The tax is taken as a credit against the 6.5 percent state sales tax, so that the total tax
that a patron pays in retail sales tax and hotel/motel tax combined is equal to the retail sales tax in the
jurisdiction. The revenues generated by this tax may be used solely for paying for tourism promotion and for
the acquisition and/or operation of tourism-related facilities. This tax is estimated to generate $550,000 in
2016.
PEG Fund#107
Under the City's cable franchise,the franchise grantee remits to the City as a capital contribution in support of
Public Education Government(PEG) capital requirements an amount equal to$0.35 per subscriber per month
to be paid to the City on a quarterly basis for the life of the franchise. Capital contributions collected under
this agreement are allocated to PEG capital uses exclusively. PEG capital uses include, in part, the set-up of
equipment in the City Council Chambers that allows Spokane Valley to broadcast Council meetings both live
and through subsequent reviews via digital recordings available on the City's website.
LTGO Debt Service Fund#204
In 2003 the City issued $9,430,000 in limited tax general obligation (LTGO) bonds the proceeds of which
were used to finance both the construction of CenterPlace and road and street improvements surrounding the
facility. In 2014 the City refunded the LTGO bonds in order to take advantage of lower interest rates which
resulted in a reduction in subsequent annual bond repayment (much like refinancing a home mortgage). At
the completion of the bond refunding there remained$7,035,000 of LTGO bonds. Of this total:
• $5,650,000 remains on the original debt used towards the construction of CenterPlace. These bonds will
be paid off in annual installments over the 20-year period ending December 1, 2033. Annual debt service
payments on these bonds are provided by the Spokane Public Facilities District. At January 1, 2016, the
outstanding balance on this portion of the bond issue will be$5,250,000.
• $1,385,000 remains on the original debt used towards the road and street improvements. These bonds
will be paid off in annual installments over the 10-year period ending December 1, 2023. Annual debt
service payments on these bonds are provided by equal distributions from the 1st and 2❑d quarter percent
real estate excise tax. At January 1, 2016, the outstanding balance on this portion of the bond issue will
be$1,125,000.
REET 1 Capital Projects Fund#301
Under Washington State Law, RCW 82.46.010, the City is allowed to impose an excise tax on each sale of
real property at the rate of one-quarter of one percent of the selling price. The revenue generated is used for
financing capital projects as specified in the capital facilities plan under the Growth Management Act.
14
REET 2 Capital Projects Fund#302
Under Washington State Law, RCW 82.46.010,the City is allowed to impose an additional excise tax on each
sale of real property at the rate of one-quarter of one percent of the selling price. The revenue generated is
used for financing public works capital projects as specified in the capital facilities plan under the Growth
Management Act.
Stormwater Management Fund#402
A stormwater fee is imposed upon every developed parcel within the City, which is an annual charge of$21
for each single family unit and$21 per 3,160 square feet of impervious surface for all other properties. These
charges are uniform for the same class of customers and service facilities. These fees are estimated to
generate$1,870,000 in 2016.
Aquifer Protection Area (APA)Fund#403
These are voter approved fees, the proceeds of which are applied to aquifer protection related capital
construction projects. Fees are collected by Spokane County and remitted to the City twice each year. Fees
include:
• An annual fee of$15 per household for the withdrawal of water from properties within the APA.
• An annual fee of$15 per household for on-site sewage disposal by properties within the APA.
• For commercial properties an annual fee ranging from$15 to$960 depending upon water meter size.
These fees are estimated to generate$500,000 in 2016
Interfund Transfers
Many funds receive a portion of their revenues from other funds in the form of an interfund transfer. These
transfers typically represent payments for either services rendered by one fund for another or a concentration
of revenues for a specific project or purpose. The following interfund transfers are planned for 2016:

• Budgets will be adopted across 24 separate funds.
• The full time equivalent employee (FTE) count will be 87.4 employees compared to 87.25 in the prior
year as a result of one part-time position being increased from 0.5 to 0.65.
• The 2016 Budget reflects the fourth consecutive year the City will set aside City monies in an amount
equivalent to 6%of General Fund recurring expenditures for pavement preservation in Fund#311 —
Pavement Preservation. This 6%equals$2,301,500.
• Positions and salary ranges are based on the City's compensation and classification plan.
• Payroll tax and benefit amounts are based on staff benefit plans.
• Contract costs for public safety,park maintenance, aquatics and street maintenance are based on estimates
by City staff.

2016 General Fund Revenues
• Total recurring 2016 revenues are estimated at$39,438,428 as compared to$38,261,000 in 2015. This
is an increase of$1,177,428 or 3.08%.
• The two largest sources of revenue continue to be Sales Tax and Property Tax which are collectively
estimated to account for 81.4%of 2016 General Fund recurring revenues.
• The 2016 general sales tax estimate(excluding criminal justice and public safety sales taxes) is reflective
of 2015 receipts to date and are currently estimated at$18.2 million which reflects an increase of
$582,100 or 3.30%over the 2015 estimate.
• The Property Tax levy does not include the potential annual increase allowed by Initiative#747 which
was approved by the voters in November 2001 through their approval of Initiative#747 and the
subsequent action by the State Legislature in November 2007.
o The 2016 levy is estimated at$11,479,200 .
o The levy assumes we start with the 2015 levy of$11,279,152,forgo the potential annual increase
allowed by State law,and finally add taxes related to new construction which we estimate to be
$200,000.
• Franchise fees and business registrations are primarily based on projected receipts in 2015.
• State shared revenues are based upon a combination of historical collections including 2015 collections
through July, and per capita distribution figures reported by the Municipal Research and Services Center.
• Fines and forfeitures are estimated by Spokane Valley and based on historical collections.
• Building permit and land use fees are estimated by Spokane Valley and based on historic collections.
2016 General Fund Expenditures

$2,301,500 and is computed by multiplying total recurring expenditures prior to adding the pavement
preservation element($2,301,500/$38,417,399 =6%). The$2,301,500 that is transferred to Pavement
Preservation Fund#311 is comprised of the following:

General Fund Revenues Over(Under)Expenditures and Fund Balance
• 2016 recurring revenues are anticipated to exceed recurring expenditures by$77,229 .
• Total 2016 expenditures are anticipated to exceed total revenues by$495,627 .
o This is entirely due to the nonrecurring expenditures previously discussed which equal $613,281 and
is not a result of ongoing operating costs overwhelming revenues. In fact it is because of the City's
strong financial position that we're able to make these acquisitions.
• The total unrestricted General Fund ending fund balance is anticipated to be$21,119,702 at the end of
2016 which is 53.66%of total recurring expenditures of$39,361,199. Our goal is to maintain an ending
fund balance of at least 50.0%.

Fund:103 Paths&Trails Fund Spokane Valley
2016 Budget
The State of Washington collects a$0.445 per gallon motor vehicle fuel tax at the pump,which will increase to
$0.494 per gallon effective July 1,2016.Of this amount,the State remits a portion of the tax back to cities on a per
capita basis. For 2016 the Municipal Research and Services Center estimates the distribution back to cities will
be$21.27 per person. Based upon a City of Spokane Valley population of 93,340(per the Washington State Office
of Financial Management on April 1,2015)we anticipate the City will collect$2,2013,400 in 2016. RCW 47.030.050
specifies that.42%of this tax must be expended for the construction of paths and trails and based upon the 2016
revenue estimate. This computes to$8,500. The balance or$2,004,900 will be credited to Fund#101 for Street
maintenance and operations.
The portion of the motor vehicle tax allocated to the Paths and Trails Fund is by State Law restricted for the construction
and/or improvement of paths and trails withing the City. Because the cost of such projects is typically much greater
than the funds generated in a single year we typically leave the fund balance untouched until an adequate fund balance
is available. In 2014 the City transferred$50,000 to Park Capital Projects Fund#309 to be applied twoards the
Phase 2 Appleway Trail Project from University to Pines.

Fund:106 Solid Waste Fund Spokane Valley
2016 Budget
In 2003,the City of Spokane Valley entered into an interolocal agreement with the City of Spokane and Spokane County
to join the existing Spokane Regional Solid Waste Management System for a period of eight years. In 2011,that
agreement was extended through November 16,2014.
Committed to ensuring Spokane Valley citizens are provided with solid waste services that are affordable,sustainable,
and environmentally responsible,in June 2014 the City of Spokane Valley opted to contract for solid waste transfer,
transport and disposal services with Sunshine Recyclers,Inc.Services provided under the contract are effective
November 17,2014,and continue for a period of ten years with options for two three-year extensions. Terms of the
contract require Sunshine to pay the City an annual administrative fee of$125,000 that will be used by the City to offset
contract administrative costs and solid waste management within the city,including solid waste public educational
efforts. The contract also provides that a road maintenance fee will be paid by Sunshine at the rate of$1 per ton for
each ton in excess of 45,500 tons in a single contract year. Payments will be made to the City by March 31 of the year
following the calendar year being measured. Assuming the total tonnage in 2015 exceeds 45,500 we would expect our
first payment from Sunshine by March 31,2016.
The contract with Sunshine Recyclers does not include curbside pickup which remains optional for citizens and is
available by subscription through Waste Management and Sunshine Disposal,Inc.
During the years of 2013 and 2014,the General Fund#001 funded various studies and fees related to the solid waste
program and transferred$60,000 to the Solid Waste Fund#106 for the purpose of providing information materials
and marketing necessary to inform residents and businesses of the change in the solid waste transfer,transport and
disposal.The total amount paid out of the General Fund for these expenditures was$202,121.Beginning in 2015 the
Solid Waste Fund will reimburse the General Fund for these costs over a 5-year period,which equates to a
payment of annually of$40,425 in the years 2015 through 2019.

Fund:120 CenterPlace Operating Reserve Fund Spokane Valley
2016 Budget
The CenterPlace Operating Reserve Fund was established as a result of covenant related to the issuance of
limited tax general obligation bonds initially issued in 2003 and refunded in 2014. The bonds were issued for the
purpose of constructing the CenterPlace facility. As a part of the bond issuance the City agreed to establish a$300,000
operating reserve account that could be used to make debt service payments on the bonds and/or pay for operating
expenses of CenterPlace. If at any time the City were to draw on these reserves it would have to prepare and follow a
plan for reinstatement of those funds drawn. This reserve is required to be in place for the life of the bonds which run
through December 1,2033.

Fund:121 Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund Spokane Valley
2016 Budget
The City has committed to maintaining a General Fund fund balance of at least 50%of recurring expenditures which
is equivalent to 6-months of operations. The Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund serves as an emergency source
of temporary financing to the General Fund in the event a downturn in the local economy resulted in a reduction of
revenues that would otherwise compromise either the General Fund's minimum 50%reserve balance or historical levels
of service.
If an event such as a downturn in the economy resulted in the General Fund balance dropping below 50%of recurring
expenditures,then the Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund could be drawn against to maintain the fund balance
minimum. In no event would the Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund be reduced to less than 60%of the current
$5.5 million balance or$3.27 million. This represents a Fiscal Policy of the City that is also stated in the City Manager's
2016 Budget Message located near the front of this budget document.

Fund:122 Winter Weather Reserve Fund Spokane Valley
2016 Budget
The Winter Weather Reserve Fund was established to provide an emergency reserve for use during unusually harsh
winters where the Street Fund#101 budget and fund balance are inadequate to accommodate the amount of snow plowing
that may be necessary. In the event the City draws against this fund in any given winter we will strive to replenish
the balance back to approximately$500,000 through subsequent years transfers from Fund#101. Due to the uncertainty
of when this fund might be drawn upon we actually budget the same$500,000 in both 2014 and 2015 even though we
recognize there exists only$500,000 to address this issue if it should arise.

Fund:123 Civic Facility Replacement Fund Spokane Valley
2016 Budget
This fund was initially created to set aside money for the eventual replacement of CenterPlace and the police precinct
building located on on east Sprague Avenue and the source of funds had in prior years been an annual transfer from
the General Fund. Beginning in 2013 however the City made the decision to no longer set money aside in this fund for
future building replacements and instead decided to commit the entire fund balance of Fund#123 to a pavement
program that is operated through Pavement Preservation Fund#311. This is in recognition of the fact that addressing
deteriorating streets in a timely manner is a much higher priority in the present than setting money aside for buildings that
will need replaced in the distant future. It was the City's conclusion that to both set money aside for the replacement of
CenterPlace now while at the same time repaying the 2014 LTGO bonds(see Fund#204 discussion)that were issued
to finance the construction of CenterPlace is essentially asking the same generation of taxpayers/citizens to pay for the
same structure twice-the initial construction and the replacement.
The$2.4 million fund balance that existed at the end of 2012 will be completely depleted due to transfers for pavement
preservation in 2016.

Fund:204 Limited Tax General Obligation(LTGO)Bond-Debt Service Fund Spokane Valley
2016 Budget
This fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources for,and the payment of limited tax general obligation(LTGO)
bonds also referred to as councilmanic or nonvoted bonds. When LTGO bonds are issued the City irrevocably pledges
the full faith,credit and resources necessary to make timely payments of principal and interest,within constitutional and
statutory limitations pertaining to non-voted general obligations.
In 2003 the City issued$9,430,000 in LTGO bonds,the proceeds of which were used to finance both the construction of
CenterPlace and road and street improvements surrounding the facility. In 2014 the City refunded the LTGO bonds in order
to take advantage of lower interest rates which resulted in a reduction in subsequent annual bond payments(much like
refinancing a home mortgage). At the completion of the bond refunding there remained$7,035,000 of LTGO bonds. Of this
total:
• $5,650,000 remains on the original debt used towards the construction of CenterPlace. These bonds will be paid
off in annual installments over the 20-year period ending December 1,2033. Annual debt service payments on these
bonds are provided by the Spokane Public Facilities District. At January 1,2016,the outstanding balance on this
portion of the bond issue will be$5,250,000.
• $1,385,000 remains on the original debt used towards the road and street improvements. These bonds will be paid
off in annual installments over the 10-year period ending December 1,2023. Annual debt service payments on these
bonds are provided by equal distributions from the 1st and 2nd quarter percent real estate excise tax(Funds 301
and 302). At January 1,2016,the outstanding balance on this portion of the bond issue will be$1,125,000.

Fund:309 Park Capital Projects Fund Spokane Valley
2016 Budget
The Parks Capital Projects Fund was created to account for park related capital improvements. Source of financing
typically consists of an annual transfer from the General Fund#001,however in some years the City will utilize money

Fund: 310 Civic Facility Capital Projects Fund Spokane Valley
2016 Budget
The Civic Building Capital Projects Fund was initially set-up to accumulate resources to ultimately acquire or construct a
City Hall building. The initial sources of revenue to set-up the fund reserves were transfers from the General Fund during
2005 through 2007,and as recently as December 31,2009,this fund had a fund balance of$5,828,600. During 2010 and
2011 the City determined that street repairs and reconstruction represented a more immediate City need and opted to
expend nearly$2,000,000 of the fund balance for these projects. The projects themselves were part of a septic tank
elimination program(STEP)initiated by Spokane County that resulted in the installation of sewer lines down many City
City streets. At that time the City decided to completely reconstruct the effected streets rather than patch them.
In 2012 the City used this fund to finance a variety street related capital projects as well as the$2.5 million acquisition
of an 8.4 acre parcel of land on Sprague Avenue that is adjacent to Balfour Park. Partially offsetting the cost of the land
acquisition was the subsequent sale of 2.82 acres of this parcel to the Spokane County Library District who plans to
construct a library building consisting of no less than 30,000 square feet. In order for the Library District to actually construct
a new building on this site they must first have a successful voted bond issue to provide the necessary financing. In the
event the Library District is unable to pass a bond by October 2017,they may sell the 2.82 acres parcel back to the City for
the original purchase price of$839,285.
In 2015 the General Fund began to make two annual transfers to this fund that are each related to the eventual
construction of a new City Hall facility.These transfers continued in 2016.
• The first transfer in the amount of$72,500,when added to the City's$434,600 annual lease payment for space in its
current space totals$507,100 which is the amount we currently anticipate our annual bond repayment would be if
we were to issue approximately$8,000,000 of limited tax general obligation bonds with a 2%issue cost over 30-years
at 4.50%.
• The second transfer is our current estimate of the annual operating costs of a City Hall facility including utilities,
janitorial,grounds maintenance and snow removal,and operating and maintenance supplies.
The purpose behind making these transfers beginning in 2015 is to"create"this appropriation capacity within the General
Fund.

Fund: 311 Pavement Preservation Fund Spokane Valley
2016 Budget
This fund was created during the 2011 Budget development process for the purpose of setting money aside for
yet to be determined street capital improvement projects. During the 2011 Budget the City Council opted to:
• Make an initial transfer of$500,000 from the Civic Facilities Capital Projects Fund#310,and additionally
transfer an amount equivalent to 40%of the General Fund's audited fund balance that exceeded$26,000,000 as
of December 31,2010. The 2010 ending fund balance was$27,461,703 which resulted in an additional 2011
transfer of$584,681 ((=$27,461,703-$26,000,000)x 40%)bringing the total transfers to$1,084,681. there were
no pavement preservation expenditures from this fund in 2011.
• In the 2012 Budget the City Council opted to transfer 100%of the General Fund unreserved fund balance in excess
of$26,000,000 to Fund#311 which computed out to$2,045,203(=$28,045,203-$26,000,000). Pavement
preservation expenditures in 2012 totalled$2,181,451.
• In the 2013 Budget development process the City committed to finance pavement preservation at a level equivalent
to 6%of 2013 General Fund recurring expenditures which computed out to$2,054,141 (_$34,235,677 x 6%). This
was funded with an appropriation of$855,857 directly from the General Fund plus an additional appropriation of
$1,198,284 in Fund#311. Sources of financing for the fund#311 appropriation included transfers-in from Fund#101
of$282,000;#123 of$616,284;#301 of$150,000 and#302 of$150,000. With an additional$35,945 in grant
revenue this brought total 2013 pavement preservation revenues to$2,092,886,which financed$2,243,010
in projects in 2013(=$855,857 in Fund#001 and$1,387,153 in Fund#311).
• In the 2014 Budget development process the City again committed to finance pavement preservation at a level
equivalent to 6%of General Fund recurring expenditures which computed out to$2,156,051 (=$35,934,187 x 6%).
This was financed with transfers from a number of City funds including$888,823 from the General Fund#001;
$282,000 from Fund#101;$616,284 from Fund#123;$184,472 from Fund#301 and$184,472 from Fund#302.
With an additional$2,042,665 in grant revenue this brought total 2014 pavement preservation revenues to
$4,200,619,which helped finance$3,077,215 of projects in 2014.
• In the 2015 Budget development process the City again committed to finance pavement preservation at a level
equivalent to 6%of General Fund recurring expenditures which computed out to$2,245,133(=$37,418,882 x 6%).
This was financed with transfers from a number of City funds including$920,000 from the General Fund#001;
$206,618 from Fund#101;$616,284 from Fund#123;$251,049 from Fund#301 and$251,049 from Fund#302.
With an additional$1,086,709 of grant revenue this brings anticipated 2015 pavement preservation revenues to
$3,331,709,which are anticipated to finance$2,662,968 of projects in 2015.
• The 2016 Budget is again being developed to set aside City funds equivalent to 6%of General Fund recurring
expenditures which computes out to$2,301,500(=$38,357,999 x 6%). This is being financed with transfers from a
number of City funds including$943,800 from the General Fund#001;$67,342 from Fund#101;$559,786 from
Fund#123;$365,286 from Fund#301 and$365,286 from Fund#302. This brings anticipated 2016 pavement
preservation revenues to$2,301,500.The 2016 Budget is anticipated to finance$2,156,051 of projects in 2016.
The fund balance of Fund#123 will be exhausted with the 2016 transfer of$559,786. In order to maintain the City's practice
of setting aside funds for pavement preservation in an amount equivalent to 6%of General Fund recurring expenditures,
the City will have to rely more heavily on the REET funds going forward.We have determined that the 2016 funding level of
$2,301,500 is sustainable through 2020 assuming a General Fund contribution of$943,800,a Street Fund contribution of
$67,342,and a collective contribution of$1,290,358 from the REET 1 Capital Projects Fund#301 and the REET 2 Capital
Projects Fund#302.The City will take advantage of grant programs directed at pavement preservation as they become
available.
Because this is a Capital Project Fund whose sole purpose is to provide for Pavement Preservation projects,any
money not expended in a given year will remain in the fund and will be available for reappropriation in subsequent
years.

Fund:403 Aquifer Protection Area Fund Spokane Valley
2016 Budget
In 1985 voters of Spokane County approved a ballot proposition to create the Spokane Aquifer Protection Area(APA)
as well as corresponding aquifer protection area fees with both sunsetting December 31,2005. Boundaries of the
APA included portions of unincorporated areas(including what is now Spokane Valley)and the cities of Liberty Lake,
Millwood and Spokane. In 2004 the City of Spokane Valley approved a resolution authorizing the inclusion of its municipal
boundaries within the APA. The APA program was subsequently reauthorized through 2025 with voter approval.
All fees are collected by Spokane County and include:
• An annual fee of$15 per household for the withdraw)of water from properties within the APA.
• An annual fee of$15 per household for on-site sewage disposal within the APA.
• For commercial properties an annual fee ranging from$15 to$960 depending upon water meter size.
In 2004 the City of Spokane Valley(City)entered into an interlocal agreement with Spokane County(County)that
authorized the County to collect and retain APA fees through 2010 for a variety of projects including:
• up to$100,000 annually through 2010 to the Spokane Regional Health District to provide for data base
management related to monitoriing of septic tanks and their potential impact on water quality in the Spokane
Valley Rathdrum Praire Aquifer.
• a septic tank elimination program(STEP)designed to replace septic tanks with sanitary sewer systems.
In the 2004 interlocal agreement the City and County also agreed that for the years 2011 through 2025 the APA fees
remaining after the payment of reasonable administration and billing fees incurred by the County would be distributed
annually between the County,City and City of Spokane on a proportional basis relative to the amount generated in
unincorporated areas,the City and City of Spokane.
The fees collected on the City's behalf by Spokane County are expended entirely on stormwater related projects that
designed to protect the aquifer. These fees plus grant monies received from a number of granting agencies finance a
variety of capital projects.

Fund:501 Equipment Rental&Replacement Fund Spokane Valley
2016 Budget
The Equipment Rental&Replacement Fund(ER&R)is an Internal Service Fund that is designed to provide the funds
necessary to purchase new vehicles and equipment at predetermined life cycles. This fund operates by charging each City
department a monthly rental rate for the vehicles they use. The fee is based upon the estimated useful life of the vehicle
and its replacement cost. The theory behind this program is that it allows City departments to budget vehicle replacement
costs as a reocurring expense over an extended period of time rather than as an intermittent capital expense that may be
difficult to afford in any single year. In the event a City department requires an additional vehicle that actually adds to the
fleet rather than simply replaces an existing vehicle,then that department must budget for the initial purchase price and
transfer the necessary funds to the ER&R Fund to make the acquisition. In subsequent years the department will then
begin paying a replacement fee spread out over the estimated useful life of the new vehicle.
The 2016 Budget includes an appropriation of$330,000 to replace one small pickup in the Community and Economic
Development Department with one small SUV,one car and one small truck for the Parks and Recreation Department,
one truck split half-time between the Street Fund and the Stormwater Management Fund,and one tandem snow plow.
Source of financing for the vehicles will be Fund#501 fund balance which exists as a result of previous years payments
by General Fund for this purpose.
Snow Plow Replacment Program
The snowplow fleet currently consists of nine plow trucks.Six of the trucks are equipped with sanders and three of the
trucks are equipped with 1,000-gallon tanks for placement of liquid deicer.Over the past five years the City has
continued to improve the snow removal operations and has updated the snow plan accordingly.These improvements in
snow operations have dictated that operating nine plows is a very efficient way to remove snow from the arterial and hillside
roadways.Operating nine plows allows the performance of a full city arterial and designated hillsides plow in approximately
12 hours. In the future new plows will be purchased to replace the aging fleet as noted below and older plows will serve
as backups and eventually be retired from the fleet beginning in 2022.The recommended snow plow fleet consists of eleven
plows with two serving as backup plows.The two backup plows ensure that arterial roadways and hillside priority roadways
can be cleared of snow per the snow plan.Having backup plows provides the City with additional plows that can be deployed
in case of a mechanical breakdown or an accident during a winter storm event.
The 2016 Budget includes the purchase of a tandem axle plow truck with a sander.A tandem axle plow is critical
for plowing the hillside areas as the lead truck.This purchase will complete the need for a second tandem axle plow for
efficient and effective hillside plowing.This truck would also be equipped with a dump box so it could be utilized to haul
material and trailer the backhoe during the spring,summer and fall months.The Snowplow Equipment Rental and
Replacement Fund balance is currently$325,000.A new tandem axle plow with a dump box and sander will cost
approximately$225,000.Future replacements will be single axle plows with an estimated cost of$200,000 per plow.
