ACTION ITEMS:
1. Second Reading Proposed Ordinance 15-023 Adopting Moratorium Extension and Findings—Erik Lamb
After City Clerk Bainbridge read the ordinance title,it was moved by Deputy Mayor Woodard and seconded
to approve Ordinance No. 15-023 adopting a renewal and extension of the moratorium on unlicensed
marijuana uses for a period of six months and adopting related findings of fact.After Deputy City Attorney
Lamb briefly went over the purpose of the extension and renewal, Mayor Grafos invited public comment.
Jason Dixon, of Otis Orchards: his prepared statement was distributed to Council; he read from that
statement explaining that he owns Herb Nerds shop in our city; said his medical dispensary is one of only
three in Spokane Valley which meets the sales tax remittances requirements for the 502 merger;that since
the recreation shops have opened, sales in medical dropped significantly, from $17,000 a month to $3,400
a month; said the State provides opportunity to merge into a unified system and this merger is their only
hope;said the three shops which urgently need to merge are his,Alternatives MD,and E.K.Green;that this
would put the valley at six recreational shops and said"isn't that a nice agreeing to meet in the middle by
providing at least this much cooperation for these three medical dispensaries to survive." There were no
further public comments. Vote by Acclamation:In Favor: Unanimous. Opposed:None. Motion carried.
NON-ACTION ITEMS:
2. Chamber of Commerce `BIG 5' —Katherine Morgan
Via her PowerPoint slides,Ms. Morgan went through the history leading up to this BIG 5; she outlined the
5 goals as Greater Outdoors, Greater Goods, Greater Learning, Greater Cures, and Greater Vision. Ms.
Morgan explained that now is the time to put action behind the goals;she mentioned the upcoming meeting
this Thursday where they will be identifying strategies and action goals, and discuss how to achieve those
Council Study Session: 12-01-2015 Page 1 of 5
Approved by Council:01-05-2016
goals and celebrate those great strengths.Council thanked Ms.Morgan for her presentation. As a means to
show support, Councilmember Wick suggested bringing forth a resolution of support to formally endorse
these BIG 5 goals. Other members of Council concurred.
3. Proposed Fee Resolution for 2016—Chelsie Taylor
Ms.Taylor explained the process and purpose of the Fee Resolution; said there have been no changes since
2014; and she explained about the proposed changes from Parks and Recreation, and Community and
Economic Development, as noted in her December 1, 2015 Request for Council Action. Ms. Taylor also
mentioned that the third bulleted item should really state for Edgecliff Park shelter and Sullivan Park
Shelter, not Brown's Park shelter. There was some discussion about the false alarm fees and the overall
program, and Mr. Jackson said Council could always adjust rates later if they desired, and that a future
discussion could look at cost recovery. Councilmember Hafner asked how many false alarms are received,
and Ms. Taylor said she would have to research that. It was agreed this item would come to Council for
approval consideration at the December 15 council meeting.
4. Community Minded TV Agreement—John Pietro
In response to the previous question about number of false alarms, Mr. Pietro said there are between 600
and 900 false alarms per year. Moving to the Community Minded TV(CMTV)Agreement,Mr.Pietro said
that this agreement expires the end of this year; he mentioned that the expiration date will change to match
that of the Cable Franchise,which is February 10,2020. Mr. Pietro explained some of the history of PEG
(Public Education and Government) fees and public access channels. He also mentioned that CMTV and
the Spokane County Library District are developing an agreement where CMTV would make video
equipment available to the library so that it could develop a studio/media lab at the Valley Branch for
producing community content features, and said staff anticipated recommending at a later date, that
additional appropriations from the PEG fund be made available to CMTV to support those efforts.
Councilmember Pace asked about the public having the ability to watch meetings live instead of on
Thursdays, and Mr. Pietro said that would likely require is to have our own channel,which would involve
a lot of operational cost,adding that staff is looking into available options,and he mentioned that the public
now has the option of watching live via Internet.In response to a question from Councilmember Wick about
the library owning the cameras,Mr.Jackson said that the initial conversation started with the library as they
wanted to provide this service opportunity to citizens; he said we contacted the schools several times but
they don't offer broadcasting as part of their curriculum, and the library showed an interest. City Attorney
Driskell added that in terms of PEG,we already have an existing agreement with CMTV as a public entity,
so it would be a clean path for us to accomplish this; adding if we had our own station/equipment, that
would also require us to have staff with expertise in running, managing, and repairing the equipment, but
with CMTV as the primary responsible entity, this would accomplish the goal to make the equipment
available to the public. Deputy Mayor Woodard asked about the PEG fund and Mr. Pietro said we initially
had about$100,000 and have about 350,000 in that fund now which can be used for equipment in the new
city hall. Mr.Jackson added that there are constraints on how we use those funds.
5. Hauling Uncovered Loads—Erik Lamb
Deputy City Attorney Lamb explained that these proposed regulations stem from a state law requirement
for any city with a transfer station, making it unlawful for persons to haul uncovered or unsecured loads;
and since we now have our own solid waste system, we are required to adopt this provision as a means to
prevent littering and promote traffic safety. Mr. Lamb said the regulations allow a fee to be imposed at the
transfer station, which can be set by the local jurisdiction, and it could be a civil infraction or a
misdemeanor, and suggested it be high enough to be a disincentive to not securing or covering loads. Mr.
Lamb said the City of Spokane does not impose a penalty, but Cheney does. There was some discussion
about enforcement, and how other entities handle this, and it was determined that Mr. Lamb will research
what other cities do, including the process, fee, and enforcement.

Mayor Grafos called for a recess at 6:50 p.m.; he convened the meeting at 7:02 p.m.
6. Street Maintenance Contact Renewal—Eric Guth
Public Works Director Guth said that this option would be the first of four option renewal years; said the
hourly labor rates will changes as noted in the documentation, but we are not proposing an increase in the
total contract amount, as the labor increase would be absorbed through changes in the work plan. Council
agreed for staff to bring this back next for a motion consideration.
7. Street Sweeping Contract Renewal—Eric Guth
Mr. Guth said this is a companion item to the previous item; that this is considered a service so it is an
hourly contract; said this allows us to negotiate any changes in hourly rates; that we tied it to the CPI-U
(All Urban Consumers Price Index) or a maximum of 3%; said this cannot exceed 3% in any given year,
and the CPI-U levels remained level likely attributable to low fuel costs. Council agreed for staff to bring
this back next for a motion consideration.
8. Spokane Regional Transportation Management Center Interlocal Agreement—Eric Guth, Sean Messner
Traffic Engineer Messner went over the background of the proposed Amendment 2, which he said would
get us through the end of 2017 with minimal impact to the budget; and if Council agrees, he would like to
bring this back next week for a motion consideration. Councilmember Pace asked what this was used for
last year and Mr. Messner replied "very little." Mr. Messner said that 97% of this use is for incidents on
WSDOT's (Washington State Department of Transportation) facilities, and perhaps we have .03%; said
two operators sit in front of a wall of TVs and routinely go through them and respond to radio calls from
the Washington State Patrol or other law enforcement, and to citizen calls, and in which case, they would
contact that jurisdiction to let them know of an incident.Mr.Messner said that all traffic signals are funneled
back to them before they come to the City, but that process will change after this year as we would have
control of our own traffic signals;said the public generally uses it for the regional cameras on I-90,Division,
and other main roads. Mr. Messner said the benefit of staying with this is having one stop for all regional
cameras and that it does benefit the traveling public, but there isn't much benefit from a City staff point.
After discussion about the pros and cons and uses of SRTMC, it was determined to stay with this through
next year since there is no cost, and to evaluate it again prior to year's end.
9. Shoreline Master Program Final Adoption—Lori Barlow
Ms. Barlow went over the process to finalize our Shoreline Master Program (SMP), all as noted on her
December 1, 2015 Request for Council Action. Ms. Barlow also noted that the Department of Ecology
unconditionally approved our document, which doesn't occur often, and said we have received a lot of
praise on the document and its development as well as the ways we have developed our regulations. There
was Council consensus to bring the documents back for approval consideration at the next Council meeting.
10. Spokane Valley Municipal Code Text Amendments—Marty Palaniuk
Planner Palaniuk explained that because of adopting the Shoreline Master Program and the Department of
Ecology's approval,we need to correct certain inconsistencies within our Municipal Code,and he explained
the needed modifications. There was Council consensus to bring the documents back for ordinance first
reading at the next Council meeting.
11. Comprehensive Plan Legislative Review—John Hohman, Lori Barlow
Community and Economic Development Director Hohman said that staff continues working on the four
chapters not dependent on the population allocation number, i.e. Utilities, Environment,Parks, and Capital
Facilities; said they also looked at the water supply situation and in past years did a general review of all
the water districts and water supply, although they didn't get into too much detail; said they are looking at
coming up with a lot more detail in order to better understand the future as it concerns water supply. Mr.
Hohman also noted that staff is working on a scope of work for the next phase of the comp plan update with
Council Study Session: 12-01-2015 Page 3 of 5
Approved by Council:01-05-2016
the consultant, to include going through each chapter to determine what will be handled by staff or by the
consultant and said they hope to have that ready soon. Mr. Hohman stated that at the November 4 meeting
of the Steering Committee of Elected Officials, they decided to forward the PTAC (Planning Technical
Advisory Committee) recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners for their evaluation and
process; said there was a lot of discussion and questions from the Commissioners, and said he is unsure
what direction the Commission will take; but there is a great desire to move forward on the process so we
are actively looking at options in that regard. In response to Councilmember Hafner's question about the
reason for the Commissioners' opposition to the number, Mr. Hohman said it is his understanding the
Commissioners felt the overall number was too low and that it should be more reflective of the number they
generated back in 2013;he said PTAC's recommendation was 580,000 and the County's number was closer
to 618,000. Mr.Hohman said that Mr.Dave Anderson of Commerce helped put that methodology together
and it has tracked well over the years with allocation number and actual growth. Mayor Grafos concurred
and said that Commerce went back about fifteen years and discovered their projections tracked very closely
with the population allocations of PTAC. Mr. Hohman said if we were to proceed under the numbers we
like and the County disagrees, we would be looking at some risk.
12. City Hall Update—John Hohman
Mr. Hohman had City Clerk Bainbridge distribute copies of the "Energy Life Cycle Cost Analysis for
Spokane Valley City Hall" which was prepared by MSI Engineers. Mr. Hohman said if Council desires,
we could bring in an engineer at the next study session who would be prepared to answer any questions
concerning the recommended alternatives for a HVAC system; said this particular system mentioned in the
cost analysis was developed in the 1980's in Japan and about 50% of office buildings of our size range in
Japan use that; and it has been used in Europe as well and is started to be used more in the United States.
Mr. Hohman said the costs are dropping and more manufacturers are using this system, and that several
new buildings have been constructed with this in the Pacific Northwest, and appears to be a very good
system, although staff still has some vetting to do. Mayor Grafos said he has one in his building and would
like to hear more, and Councilmember Pace said he would also like to see an overall summary of how the
purchase costs would affect the budget.Concerning the use of river rock on the outside of the building, Mr.
Hohman said the architect is still looking into potential options, and that the cost per square foot is about
$35.50 for river rock, $12.40 for brick, and $11.35 for block, and said he would ask Mr. Roth to bring in
more information and have him develop some concepts for Council's consideration.
13. Advance Agenda—Mayor Grafos
Councilmember Pack asked about the Blake sidewalk project and Mr. Jackson replied that he met with
Public Works staff and they are putting together a program for public input, after which we can place that
matter back on an agenda. Councilmember Wick mentioned an important upcoming vote with SRTC
(Spokane Regional Transportation Council), and he mentioned the idea of having a method that this body
could assign a delegate who could serve until the re-appointment next year; said they will be working on a
study on grade separation projects and prioritizing funding;that the Puget Sound region did a study on how
they prioritized all grade separations,but we have not done a study and said he feels that vote will likely be
in January or February, and he mentioned the idea of being an alternate at that January meeting;mentioned
the idea of sending a letter to SRTC that we have identified the grade prioritization and relate back to their
2040 Plan; and to put forward our recommendation that there has been a prioritization of projects, and to
carry that message through with a letter to SRTC. Council concurred. Councilmember Hafner asked about
historic preservation,and Mr.Jackson said he will work with staff to bring that back to an upcoming agenda.
14. Department Monthly Reports
These reports were for information only and were not discussed or reported.

15. Council Comments-Mayor Grafos
Councilmember Hafner reported that Councilmember Bill Bates is doing better than anticipated; he is off
the oxygen and the x-rays show the cancer is in remission and no longer spreading elsewhere.
16. City Manager Comments-Mike Jackson
Mr. Jackson spoke concerning the November 17 windstorm and the resulting damage; said he would like
to get Council consensus for staff to balance the budget using the funds from the winter weather reserve to
pay for some of these items; said there is a potential for federal reimbursement,and we need to spend funds
now and in the near future to pay for the cleanup; said there were numerous fallen trees, damage to signs
and signs and debris in roadways; that street sweeping will be a large component of these expenses; said
Public Works continues to find a few trees leaning or down so there is additional cleanup; said there were
95 different locations in the city where trees were removed, and we had Senske and Geiger crews working
to help; said the tree removal component is about $108,000, and again he recommended using winter
weather reserves; and said we will want to replenish that back up to $500,000. Mr. Jackson said of our 88
traffic signals, 30 went down but are all back up and working; some signs were damaged and had to be
replaced for an estimated cost of$5,000; said our parks also suffered with 35 to 40 large trees being blown
down in Castle Park,Edgecliff,Sullivan,Terrace View and Mission Parks,and we are working with Senske
and logging companies to fill the holes in the ground, at an estimated cost of$165,000. Mr. Jackson also
noted that Sunshine Disposal has agreed to take all tree debris, no matter what size, all for the same clean
green cost;and said they processed about 540 tons of organic materials. All total,Mr.Jackson said the cost
was approximately$300,000; and Council concurred to bring this back for a motion at next week's council
meeting.
Mr. Jackson also noted that Christmas Eve is on a Thursday, and that it is normally a very quiet day, and
with Council's approval,he asked about considering closing at noon on Christmas Eve. Council concurred;
and Mr. Jackson said a motion to that effect would also be on next week's agenda.
17. Executive Session: Performance Review of a Public Employee
It was moved by Deputy Mayor Woodard, seconded and unanimously agreed to adjourn into executive
session for approximately sixty minutes to review the performance of a public employee, and that no action
would be taken upon return to open session. Council adjourned into executive session at 8:10 p.m. At
approximately 9:12 p.m., Deputy Mayor Woodard returned to Council chambers and announced that the
executive session would be extended for ten minutes. At approximately 9:22 p.m., Mayor Grafos declared
Council out of executive session, at which time it was immediately moved by Deputy Mayor Woodard,
seconded, and unanimously agreed to adjourn.

Herb Nerds is situated between Latah Creek Winery(Catering to patrons 21 or older) and a very popular
store Zanies which(caters to patrons 18 or older).There are no schools near by,we are heavily invested
into this location,as we've felt it to be extremely appropriate for this particular type of business,
especially considering the Merger of medical and recreational.This"Herb Nerds" medical dispensary is
one of only 3 in the Spokane Valley who meet the sales tax remittance requirements for the 502 merger.
Med shops Rec Shops
Knowledge,effects, useage information hurry up and buy(no advice allowed)
Can only sell to 0.001%of population Can sell to 100.00%of population
$17,000.00 dropping to$3,000.00/mo $100,000's and growing
Very poor and struggling Very rich and powerful,able to oppress
Can not afford the lawyers and crafty tactics! Financial ability to oppress medical !
State provides opportunity to MERGE into a unified system! Since the rec shops have begun to open,
sales in medical,already only able to sell to .001%of the population(Dr's Recomendation Holders) have
been crushed,and I'm willing to cite a figure from my shop Herb Nerds, our sales have dropped from
$17k per month all the way down to$3.4k,a crushing blow,and this merger is our only hope.
SINCE REC SHOPS HAVE OPENED!
Med Shops Rec Shops
Sales have fallen from$17k/mo to$3.4k/mo! Rec shop sales soaring near 7 digits,some of them
We are just trying to survive&stay open. Rec shops getting rich and dangerously powerful
Trying to participate in the merger Trying to prevent others from participating
ALL THE SUDDEN: Moratoriums galore, location prohibitions getting extended,limitations on how
many shops,well mind you, ..
When the shops in the Valley were limited to 3 recreationals,there was 7 medical dispensaries at the
time for a total of 10 shops.
Now the rec shops of course are pushing this agenda to maintain it at 3 when in all reality it was
accepted at 10 in all this time past.So isn't it a nice MERGER to allow the 3 shops paying sales taxes to
merge into the system without all of these road blocks.
From all I can tell those three shops who urgently need to merge are: Herb Nerds,Alternatives MD,
and E.K. Green.This would put the valley at 6 recreational shops and isn't that a nice 'agreeing to meet
in the middle', by providing at least this much cooperation for these three medical dispensaries to
survive.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
ENERGY LIFE CYCLE COST ANALYSIS
SPOKANE VALLEY CITY HALL
SPOKANE VALLEY, WA
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Purpose
Pursuant to the requirements of the State of Washington RCW 39.35 and the Office of
the Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI), the design of new and majorly
renovated K-12 schools larger than 25,000 square feet, must include an Energy Life-
Cycle Cost Analysis (ELCCA) to account for all energy consuming systems (HVAC,
lights, water and envelope) and to include their related costs, as well as first costs
(construction costs) and ongoing maintenance/repair costs, in the decision process for
selecting the most cost-effective, efficient public facilities.
The purpose of this ELCCA report is to compare total life cycle costs of several
alternative HVAC (air handling, heating and cooling) systems for:
Spokane Valley City Hall
for
City of Spokane Valley
Spokane Valley, Washington
As a result of this analysis, this report recommends the optimum system selection based
on design with the lowest total life cycle costs. This report also evaluates the
compliance of the building design with the provisions of the Washington State Energy
Code, 2012 Edition.
Project Summary
The proposed new building is being designed as a replacement to the current city hall.
The typical exterior wall is a basic masonry cavity wall construction. Framing is with
metal studs which run continuously past the floor structure for continuity of insulation.
The exterior skin is a mixture of brick and concrete block. Pre-Cast Concrete is used as
window sills and headers. Relief is provided at the third floor sill level by a step-back in
the face of the masonry.
There will be two roof assemblies used for the project. The first will be a metal deck roof
will have at minimum a layer of R-30 continuous insulation and single-ply roofing. The
second will be composition roofing with a continuous layer of insulation and batt
insulation between trusses. All roof assemblies will comply with guidelines set forth in
the WSEC.
Based on the results of the ELCCA which compares first costs, annual energy costs, and
ongoing maintenance/repair costs for the four alternative systems over a 30 year
economic life cycle, it is recommended that Alternative 3 —Variable Refrigerant Flow
be selected for incorporation into the design of the new Spokane Valley City Hall. The
key elements that make this the recommended system as well as the most cost-effective
choice include:
• Lowest overall 30-year life cycle cost.
v
• Efficient system operation with low annual energy costs due to:
o Heat Recovery Ventilation System
o High Efficiency Variable Flow Demand
o CO2 Demand Control Ventilation
o Economizer Capability
Variable Refrigerant Flow Systems (VRF) use refrigerant as the cooling and heating
medium, and allow one outdoor condensing unit to be connected to multiple indoor fan-
coil units (FCUs), each individually controllable by its user, while modulating the amount
of refrigerant being sent to each evaporator. By operating at varying speeds, VRF units
work only at the needed rate allowing for substantial energy savings at partial-load
conditions.
VRF systems allow individual indoor units to heat or cool as required, while the outdoor
condensing unit compressor load benefits from the internal heat recovery (some units
are in cooling and some are in heating mode).
The technology allows for compact, quiet units, flexibility of placement and gives
architects and owners more design freedom.
Gas-fired, storage tank type water heaters will be utilized. General office use will be
provided by water heaters which deliver 140°F water to multiple storage tanks and a
master thermostatic mixing valve set to deliver hot water at 120°F. The domestic hot
water systems will have pumped re-circulation to maintain water temperature at the
remote fixtures.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
ENERGY LIFE CYCLE COST ANALYSIS
SPOKANE VALLEY CITY HALL
SPOKANE VALLEY, WA
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Description of Site and Building
Spokane Valley City Hall replacement project is located off Sprague and Dartmouth on
the northwest corner of the former University Shopping Mall in the heart of Spokane
Valley, WA. The elevation is roughly 2,000 ft. above sea level, in a primarily heating
climate with 6,842 heating degree days (HDD) and 298 cooling degree days (CDD). The
building massing is roughly rectangle in nature, and is three stories in height. The
current vision is to create a classic yet contemporary masonry structure, providing a
highly visible and distinctive structure at the heart of Spokane Valley.
Typical occupancy hours range from 7am to 5pm, with some extended hours for
extracurricular and administrative activities throughout the year. The school is open
during the summer. Schedules will be used that reflect typical usage within the model.
Electricity and natural gas is available onsite, and is supplied by the Avista Utilities.
Internal Planning
The new building will be comprised of three stories of various office spaces, council
chambers, open office areas and conference rooms.
The main floor has two front entrances on the east and west side of the building that
lead into a main corridor area which connects various office and council chambers area
to the north side with the main office areas on the south side to the of the building. Stair
cases in the center, north and southeast of the design allow access to the basement,
second and third floor.
The second and third floors house multiple open and closed office spaces along with
multipurpose areas and conference rooms. Large windowed areas provide daylighting
to nearly all working spaces.
The basement will house mainly storage, electrical and mechanical spaces.
Exterior Design
The exterior of the building will be constructed of CMU and masonry veneer, with its
defining feature being a large, three story curtain wall in the center of the east side
providing the main entrance to the building. This also provides the offset in architecture
that divides the north and south areas of the building, breaking up the blocky rectangular
feel of many buildings in the area.
Site Design
The Spokane Valley City Hall replacement will be located in the center of the lot on the
northwest corner of Dartmouth and Sprague. Public parking will be located to the east,
employee parking/loading area to the south, and rapid permit parking to the west.
Design Goals
The design for the new school is based upon the needs as well as the constraints of the
design team, taking into consideration not only desired use of the space, but things such
building durability, timelessness, sustainability, and comfort.
The design team identified building goals that were important to the users of the new
building and were integrated into the WSSP Scorecard and overall building design. The
Spokane Valley City Hall project plans to integrate the following:
• Energy Savings of 15% or better over WSEC 2012.
• Preservation of green space
• Minimal footprint
• Light pollution reduction
• Reduced irrigation water use
• Potable water use reduction
• Daylight strategies
• Low VOC Emitting interior and material finishes
• Advanced mechanical filtration
• Indoor air quality, adequate volume of fresh, comfortable tempered air
• Energy efficiency in lighting systems
• High performance HVAC that is energy efficient and controllable
• Exterior lighting for security and safety

SPOKANE VALLEY, WA
Energy Simulation Assumptions
This ELCCA report is based upon a comparative energy simulation computer model that
has been developed for Spokane Valley City Hall, based upon the current architectural,
mechanical, and electrical drawings of the aforementioned project. Care was taken to
ensure that energy simulation inputs properly reflect the architectural, mechanical, and
electrical characteristics prescribed during the design process, and that additional
building loads and schedules best reflect the predicted actual building usage.
The baseline and alternative model has been developed following the requirements and
procedures as outlined in the 2012 Washington State Energy Code and the ELCCA
Guidelines for Public Agencies in Washington State. Other standards that may have
been referenced during the creation of the energy model simulation include:
- ASHRAE Handbook - Fundamentals.
- 2012 International Mechanical Code
- RS Means Cost Data
- ASHRAE 90.1
- ASHRAE 62.1
Modeling of anticipated energy consumption for alternative combinations of systems has
been performed using Trace energy simulation software developed by Trane. This
program meets the simulation program requirements as outlined in the 2012 Washington
State Energy Code.
The program uses an hourly calculation method and incorporates meteorological data
for the area that most closely matches the real location of the building site. When a
weather station does not exist near the building site's location, the energy modeler will
use a weather station that best represents the site's location and weather patterns.
An overview of modeling assumptions for each of the alternatives can be viewed on the
following modeling system matrix spreadsheet and input files.

HVAC SYSTEMS
ENERGY LIFE CYCLE COST ANALYSIS
SPOKANE VALLEY CITY HALL
SPOKANE VALLEY, WA
Alternative 1 (Prescriptive Baseline System)—(Packaged Roof-Top VAV)
All occupied zones of the building would be served by variable air volume air handling
units (either roof mounted or inside of equipment rooms) with DX cooling, hot water heat
and air economizers. The VAV air handlers would distribute air to VAV terminal units
located at the zone level and equipped with hot water reheat coils.
The VAV air handling units provides the majority of the heating required for the facility,
and all of the cooling. The remainder of the heating is provided by the downstream VAV
terminal units. The VAV air handling uses a variable frequency drive to regulate airflow
to the terminal units. As the call for cooling within the zones is reduced, the fan speed
is also reduced to deliver less primary air.
The VAV terminal units would be series fan powered units which are commonly used in
VAV zones that not only require heat during occupied hours, but also constant volume
air delivery. With this system the terminal unit fan is in series with the central fan.
Therefore, primary air from the central fan always passes through the terminal unit fan.
The terminal unit fan is generally sized for 100 percent zone air flow since all primary
airflow passes through it. This terminal unit fan operates whenever the zone is in
occupied mode. This ensures a constant flow of air, but the temperature of the air
varies. As the zone cooling requirement decreases, the primary air damper in the
terminal unit closes. As the damper closes, the air mixture supplied to the zone contains
less cool air and more warm recirculated plenum air. The terminal units located along
the perimeter use electric reheat coils to compensate for the skin heat loss of the
building.
Multiple heating water boilers would be used to generate hot water for heating the
building. The boilers would be staged in sequence to meet the heating load of the
building as the outside temperature drops.
The hot water would be distributed throughout the building by variable-flow piping
systems. Most air handling units and terminal units will be provided with two-way control
valves to provide variable flow operation of the hydronic distribution system, thereby
maximizing energy efficiency.
Advantages:
• Relatively low first cost.
• Easy to provide smaller zones.
• It's very flexible. The system can be subdivided or expanded into new zones
to bit building remodeling or additions easily and inexpensively.
• The type of system can easily be designed to facilitate partial occupancy of
the building while the remaining portions are unoccupied.
Disadvantages:
• If the VAV air handling unit fails, all of the spaces served by this unit will be
shut down.
• Hot water reheat lowers energy efficiency.
• Pumps and boilers will require periodic maintenance.
• Water loop needs to be chemically treated periodically to prevent corrosion
and failure of the components it is circulated through.

Alternative 2 —Water Source Heat Pump W/ Cooling Tower & Hot Water Boiler
Most heat pumps used in HVAC applications today use a vapor compression cycle,
similar to that used in a household refrigerator or home air conditioner and use an
electric motor driven compressor, a condenser and an evaporator. By reversing this
cycle, the unit has the ability to provide either heating or cooling.
Water source heat pumps have compressors in each unit that can be used to produce
either hot or cold air as the space conditions dictate, while being connected to a pair of
water pipes (hence water source) to provide for heat rejection or heat extraction. During
cooling, the heat pump transfers heat from the space to the water loop. As the water
loop circulates through the building, other heat pumps that may be calling for heating
can transfer this heat back into other portions of the building where it can be used, thus
increasing the efficiency of the system.
If a majority of the heat pumps are in cooling mode, the additional loop heat is rejected
to the atmosphere through a cooling tower. During heating mode, the reverse sequence
occurs. If a majority of the heat pumps are in the heating mode, additional heat is
provided to the water loop by a boiler.
Other options to reject and absorb heat into the water loop include geo-thermal and bi-
thermal.
Advantages:
• Extremely efficient.
• If a heat pump unit fails, the entire system doesn't shut down.
• This type of system can easily be designed to facilitate partial occupancy of
the building while the remaining portions are unoccupied.
• This system provides excellent indoor air quality and energy efficiency.
Disadvantages:
• The most expensive of all of the systems.
• The discharge temperature to the space cannot be modulated to suit the
space load. Similar to a house furnace, the units are either on or off with
respect to heating and cooling.
• In-room or in-space maintenance including frequent filter replacement.
• Pumps will require periodic maintenance.
• Water loop needs to be chemically treated periodically to prevent corrosion
and failure of the components it is circulated through.
• Each unit contains a compressor; therefore care needs to be taken with
respect to the design and placement to reduce the radiated sound levels.
• Each heat pump unit contains a compressor that typically needs replaced
every ten years. If not accounted for this can be a financial burden on the
city.

Alternative 3: Variable Refrigerant Flow System
Variable Refrigerant Flow Systems (VRF) use refrigerant as the cooling and heating
medium, and allow one outdoor condensing unit to be connected to multiple indoor fan-
coil units (FCUs), each individually controllable by its user, while modulating the amount
of refrigerant being sent to each evaporator. By operating at varying speeds, VRF units
work only at the needed rate allowing for substantial energy savings at partial-load
conditions.
VRF systems allow individual indoor units to heat or cool as required, while the outdoor
condensing unit compressor load benefits from the internal heat recovery (some units
are in cooling and some are in heating mode). The technology allows for compact, quiet
units, flexibility of placement and gives architects and owners more design freedom.
Advantages:
• Very efficient system.
• Zones or rooms can be designed to exact needs, taking into account
occupancy, solar gain parameters, and diversity of usage.
• VRF systems utilize small diameter pipes (refrigerant) and ducts (ventilation
air only) which makes ceiling space coordination easier.
• Easy to provide smaller zones.
• This system is ideal for an application where quiet is a necessity; meeting
rooms, private offices and conference rooms.
• The indoor units come in a variety of styles and give the owner flexibility in
deciding on the style, from wall mounted, ceiling mounted, or concealed in the
ceiling space.
Disadvantages:
• System maintenance requires an experienced refrigerant technician.
• Relatively new technology in the U.S.

DOMESTIC HOT WATER SYSTEMS
Gas-fired, storage tank type water heaters will be utilized to provide domestic hot water
throughout the building.
General school use and kitchen hot water will be provided by water heaters which
deliver 140°F water to multiple storage tanks and a master thermostatic mixing valve set
to deliver hot water at 120°F. The domestic hot water systems will have pumped re-
circulation to maintain water temperature at the remote fixtures.
If necessary due to water quality issues, water softeners will be provided in order to
precondition water for the hot water system, which will help prolong the life of the
heaters and help avoid mineral buildup on shower heads and faucets.
Low flow faucets and flush valves will be used throughout the facility.
Toilet rooms will have wall hung water closets (1.1 gallons per flush) and urinals (1/8
gallon per flush) with hard-wired, sensor-operated flush valves.
Wall hung lavatories will be low flow (.5 gpm), hard-wired, sensor-operated faucets.
Showers will be low flow (2.0 gpm) with manually operated pressure-balanced mixing
valves.
