Mr. Gothmanr read his statement for the record (included). Overview: Deputy City Manager Calhoun briefly went over the agenda topics for the meeting, stating that we will try to hold to the schedule and if we are not able to answer all of Council's questions today, we can bring answers back to Council at a future meeting. He also pointed out that the Work Plan and Business Plan are included with the agenda packet materials but they will notcovered today, I. Legislative Update—Briahna Murray Ms. Murray informed Council that the legislative session ended March 1 lith and the legislature has not yet come to an agreement on its supplemental budgets. As a result, the Governor called for a thirty-day session. She said there were twenty-seven bills vetoed and ten signed into law with no other actions scheduled. Only 8.5 percent of the proposed bills passed, she said, one of the lowest in history. Ms. Murray briefly updated Council on some of its top priority items and other items that came about during session of interest to Spokane Valley, Nuisance Abatement Cost Recovery: cities can recover $2000 on first priority liens through property tax statements on nuisance properties where abatements are involved. She said the bill, nearly three years in the making and supported by Spokane Valley, is very close to passing and she said she is hopeful the governor will sign the bill. Barker Rd transportation funding: she said she is continuing to meet with the legislature and requesting funds and that the next funding opportunity will be through the transportation futures account. She said midway through the transportation revenue package all money that is saved to the practical solutions effort on various projects will be put into one account and projects can compete for funds within the one account so she said there is Council Special Meeting Workshep:03-15-2016 Page I of 13 Approved by Council:04-26-2016 hope to get more funding when that occurs. Mariiana Regulation: House Bill (1-1B)2693, which she and others testified against, died in committee; it would have created a marijuana lounge endorsement on a retailer's license. Senate Bill (SB) 6375 would have provided for the jurisdictional option to license and regulate marijuana lounges. She said a Seattle city attorney argued that without clubs or lounges folks who live in non-smoking apartments would have no place to smoke; however, it died in committee. HB 1438 preempts city authority to ban marijuana retail, processing and production; it passed committee but did not progress further. 1-FB 2998 will eliminate Local bans on retail and reduces marijuana tax. She said some legislators think if local jurisdictions cannot ban retail operations, tax revenues would increase and provide the state with more money to help balance its budget. VWatc1 Righ : SB 6215 converts water rights that are for aviculture or dairy purposes but used for municipal water rights to municipal water rights. She said the City signed in support of the legislation and the bill passed the Senate but died in the House Agriculture and Water Committee. She said opposition came from environmental groups and tribes that believe the existing water right transfer change system through the Department of Ecotoge would be ideal in addressing this situation rather than alternative legislation. She said if this is something important to the City, we can add it to the legislative agenda for next year. Gender Segregated Facilities; SB 6443 repeals the Human Rights Commission rale change and prevents any future rule change on the topic of gender segregated facilities. She said her office worked with the City to submit a letter of support to the Commerce and Labor committee but the bill died by one vote in the Senate, 25-24. SB 6548 Bruitsaccess to gender segregated facilities to only those with a matching gender but makes an exception fora child or person with a disability accompanied by a guardian. She said the bill went to a public hearing but did not pass out of committee, Liquor Revenue: SB 6425 and 1-113 2438, both supported by the City, would implement a phase-in approach for increasing revenue distributions to local governments. She said they would remove the 2012 liquor revenue cap and restore distributions to a 50150 share in 2023. She said that while neither bill fully passed chambers, legislation is an on-going effort to restore state-shared liquor revenues. County Commissioner Legislation: F-l:B 2610 increases the number of County Commissioners from three to five. She said the City had no position on this bill but it impacts the region, The bill passed in the House but died in. the Senate, having a public hearing but not voted out of committee. She said in the coming weeks the legislature will work to come to an agreement on the budgets and the governor will decide what he will do with the bills on his desk. Councillnember Wood asked if the water rights bill will come up again next year. Ms. Murray said she is not sure but she flagged it as an agenda item forCouncil if they want to bring it up on its legislative agenda. She said if doing so, we would want to check with Senator Padden, the bill sponsor, to see what his interest level is moving forward with the bill and added that it is discouraging when good legislation does not pass but sometimes it takes more than one year. Deputy City Manager Calhoun asked if there was any damage to other liquor revenues. Ms. Murray said liquor legislation will proactively restore City revenues but they are also still trying to ensure no other liquor revenues are taken. She said MRSC lost their funding which is funded out of liquor revenues, the basic law enforcement training bill would have increased the City's share of its cost to train law enforcement officers from twenty-five percent currently to fifty or seventy-five percent based on the number of officers going through the academy. She said no reductions were included in the budget For state-shared revenue so they were successful in cutting off those cuts. Mayor Higgins asked what the final disposition is on MRSC funding. Ms. Murray said the proposal suggests MRSC be fully funded out of liquor revenues but the operating budget has not been agreed uponand she said she is "fairly confident" the final budget agreement will not include that cut. City Attorney Driskell said that MRSC may not receive any funding at all in 2017. Ms. Murray said when the legislature meets in January of 2017 they will develop their 2017.2019 budget and can again consider all proposed cuts. Ms. Murray said that half of the Senate and all of the House are up for reelection in November so this can be pivotal in determining what the 2017 legislature looks like. Additionally, she said, the McCleary Supreme Court decision regarding K-12 education requires the legislature fully fund education by 2018_ This means the 2017 legislature needs to tackle that funding issue and to do so, the state will need a significant amount of revenue,whether making reductions or increasing revenues in some manner,and she said it is still unclear how they will handle it. Couecilmember Cotltnlann inquired as to the efforts to challenge the McCleary Council Special.Meeting Workshop: 03-15-2016 Page 2 of 13 Approved by Council:U-26-2016 decision in the higher courts. Ms. Murray said it is currently at the state Supreme Court level and there has been significant legislative pushback arguing it is a breach of judicial and legislative authority with no formal challenge or court action. She said it has been at the Supreme Court level for quite some time, and has gone to sanction arguments. The legislature passed a bill that outlines a series of workgroups and deadlines to come to resolution prior to the 2017 session. Councilmomber Wood asked if"fully funded" has been defined and she said there are multiple perspectives on what is meant by"fully funded"but they have a definition For -basic education" adopted in a bill around 2009-ish and that bill is what the McCleary court decision looked at in determine whether basic education was being provided_ Ms. Murray said she would send the case information to Council. 2. Continue to work with state and federal le islatcrs for •ossiblc financial assistance for the Barker Road Bridge Grade Separation—Eric Guth. Mark Calhoun Public Works Director Guth went through the slide presentation and said there are two grant opportunities for the Barker Bridge grade separation, the FAST Act-FASTLANE grant and the TIGER Grant. He said there are also future smaller grants to supplement these rwo larger grants. He said the City's top projects that meet the grant criteria are the Barker Road Overpass and Pines Road Underpass. The Barker Overpass project goes back ten years and SRTC has received thirty percent of the funding for design and one-hundred percent of the funding for environmental clearance; however, he said over the last several years we have tried for additional federal funding to move forward but have been unsuccessful. hi 2013, he said staff met with BNSF and Union Pacific railroads and discussed consolidating the tracks together on the same corridor, creating some overpasses and eliminating sonic of the grade separations, but the railroads do not share that idea to combine the tracks. Mr. Guth said in 2014 staff applied for the TIGER V1 grant for the Barker Overpass project but were unsuccessful after making the first cut. In 2015, staff applied for the TIGER VII grant for the Barker Overpass but were again unsuccessful although we received positive feedback an our application. It was suggested that we get a letter of support from the Federal Rail Administration and he said staff will do that for future applications. I-k said we hired HDR as our consultant for the TIGER VI application and we used that application again for the TIGER VII grant and utilized a consultant for financial help on the application. He said with the two opportunities for grants now he proposes we submit the Barker Overpass and Pines Underpass for the grants. He said the Barker project has some funding already and we still need approximately $21 million. We have no federal funding secured for the Pines Underpass project, estimated to cost approximately$18 million, Mr. Guth described the two grants and said FAST Act (Fixing Americas Surface Transportation) FASTLANE (Fostering Advancements in Shipping and Transportation for the Long-term Achievement of National Efficiencies) is a five-year program with $4.5 billion available over the five years. He said eligible projects include highway freight and rail projects, bridge projects, grade crossing and grade separation projects. He said the desire and focus of the projects is on movement of freight and criteria looks at who it benefits, how many people, and if there is a national or metropolitan area benefit. Councilmeinber Gothmann asked if our two projects benefit moving rail freight. Mr. Guth confirmed that the projects benefit rail and truck traffic. He said our projects would fall into their Small Project category where the minimum is $5 million up to $100 million. Councilreember Wood asked if we can bundle projects and Mr. Guth responded that we can but they estimate that if we bundled all of our projects, Barker, Pines, Park and Sullivan, we would be around $80 million, which still falls short of the Large Project category minimum requirement. He said larger projects are not as competitive as small projects so we tried to meet the qualifications to make a larger project. Councilmember Gotlimann asked if can tie in with Idaho as a way to meet the $1 DO million threshold and.Mr, Guth said he has not looked into that but that he can. Deputy Mayor Woodard suggested we consider the Union Pacific crossing at Pines if we are locking at bundling projects. Mr. Guth said lie would look into that for the call that comes out next year. He said the FASTLANE grant funds up to sixty percent of the total project and can be supplemented with other federal funding up to another twenty percent. He said it then requires a local match, which can also include other local or state funding. He said the grants can be used for planning and engineering, Council Special Meeting Workshop:03-15-2016 Page 3 of 13 Approved by Council;04-26-2016 development, right-of-way and construction. Requirement considerations for small projects include the project cost-effectiveness and mobility effect on the state or region; lee said he believes we meet the criteria. He said merit criteria deal with economies and mobility in our area. Other review criteria include partnership innovations such as collaborating with a broad range of stakeholders such as the County, Slate, and rail partnerships, to show we are working together. Mr. Guth said the Barker grade separation project is estimated to cost 529.2 million and that we have secured federal grants in the amount of $6,560,000, the City's match is $2,909,004 from REET 301 and 302 funds and the Capital Reserve fund 3 l2. He said assuming we receive the FASTLANE grant for sixty percent of the project cost that would leave $2.2 million needed to complete the project where they would look at other grant funding options. Councilmember Hefner asked what the City's REET status is; Mr. Calhoun said that will be covered in the next agenda item. Mr. Gtith said the Pines [,Underpass project cost is $17.2 million and no grants have been secured yet_ Assuming we receive a FASTLANE grant at sixty percent, the remaining amount needed is $6.4 million. He said we would look for other grants to supplement the FASTLANE grant and that once awarded the City has eighteen months that we could use to apply for additional grants but we would need to move forward with obligated construction funds by September 2019. Councilmember Grafos asked how long the City has to say yes or no on projects if we are short on funds. Mr. Guth said eighteen months and that once we enter 2019 we would have to know if we will move forward with the project or not. He said not all of the particulars of the funding have been published yet so staff is still familiarizing itself with this but he said he will provide more information with regard to timing flexibility as we move forward through the process. Mr. Guth said staff recommends that we apply for FASTLANE grants for both projects, but he said one concern with bundling projects is the City match funds required and whether we would be able to come up with the matching funds_ He said it will be competitive and because we have not applied for grant funds fcr Pines before and because of the time constraint, he would like to hire a consultant to help with the application and that is not in the budget. He said he received a quote from one consultant of just under $80 thousand for both projects, two applications under FASTLANE and one application under TIGER. If Council is interested in pursuing the grant for this project, he said we would need to get a consultant hired right away without two more touches by Council. Deputy City Manager Calhoun said that from a budgetary perspective we can see if there are funds in the current budget and with Council concurrence could come bail: later in the year with a budget amendment to pay for the remainder. He said for the Barker project we are looking for consensus from Council to move forward with hiring a consultant and submitting applications due to the time constraint. It was the consensus of Council to move forward with hiring a consultant and submitting the grant applications for the FASTLANE grant. Mr. Guth said we can look at bundling projects in subsequent years. He recapped that going forward we will hire a consultant, get the applications moving forward, and in the meantime bring the proposed projects back to Councilto discuss and get public input, move forward with the application submittal, and if necessary bring back a budget amendment in the fall to address the cost of the consultant. Mr. Guth said the TIGER grant is $500 million for transportation and intermodal across the country. TIGER grants cover eighty percent of the project cost but no other federal money can be applied so the City needs to make a twenty percent match and the project must be greater than $5 million. He said approximately six percent of the total applications are funded, most are only partially funded meaning less than the eighty percent is funded, and the most successful projects have a thirty-five percent match component. He said projects that compete welt are ready, have a strong local match, strong partnerships and a clear impact to the region or metropolitan area. Funds will need to be obligated by September 30, 2019. He said selection criteria include safety, quality of life, state of good repair, environmental sustainability, innovation and partnerships,readiness and cost-benefit analysis. Council Special Meeting Workshop:03-13-2016 Page 4 of 13 Approved by Council_04-26-2016 Mr. Guth said that if we use a TIGER grant for the Barker Overpass project, with an estimated cost of $29,2 million less the secured grants of 6,560,000,a City match of$1,640,000, a TIGER grant at eighty percent of the project is $21 million. Mr. Calhoun said if we receive this grant it would free up $2.2 million in REET funds that we could put toward other projects such as the Pines Underpass project. Mr. Guth said currently, there are no City funds put toward the Pines project. Mr, Guth said staff recommends we apply for a TIGER grant using the Barker Overpass project again because we already have funding partnerships and because we have applied for the grant using this project in the past, he said it could be to the City's advantage. He said the grant will be more competitive and he would like to hire a consultant to help with the application and updating the financial piece. Mr.Calhoun pointed out the Pending/Potential Projects worksheet in the packet with regard to Bridging the Valley and said that it shows the project costs and grants secured and gets updated throughput the process. He said another City funding source is the Capital Reserve Fund 312.where each year fifty percent of the remaining General Fund balance was to the 312 fund, providing City funds for capital projects. 3. Develo, a strate_ic +len for fundin. and com•letion of all ,de se.aration projects — Mark Calhoun:, Chelsie Taylor. Erik Lamb Deputy City Manager Calhoun said as an extension of the grade separation projects we are looking at taxes currently assessed. Finance Director Taylor went through the handouts in the agenda packet and said we are assuming a bond has a thirty-year repayment period and 4.5 percent interest rate and for this discussion, she is limiting the colt ersation to the bold, outlined portions of the worksheet. Mr. Calhoun said this is not a proposal, but is a "What if" Council decided not to focus on the grant funding for the projects and issued bonds instead. She said the first sheet is assuming the retail sales tax revenues increase and the second sheet is assuming a property tax rate increase voter passed bond. She said in the case of the Pines Underpass project,our annual bond payment would be just over$1 million so sales tax revenue in Spokane 'Valley would need to increase $126 million in order to make that bond payment. If using a property tax solution, she said for the same project to make the annual bond payment we would need a tax rate increase of $111389 cents per $1,404 assessed value per year for thirty years. Mr. Calhoun said currently we have a strong investment rating but the deeper we go into debt, it lowers our credit rating and increases our interest rate. Councilmernber Grafos asked and Mr. Calhoun confirmed that for this assumption, we would need to increase our gross sales by 5.2 percent with no change in the operating costs of the City to repay the bonds. .Ms. Taylor said the 2016 banked capacity is $490,992 so if we committed the banked capacity to a bend payment, we could issue about $7.8 million in bonds at 4.5 percent interest rate over thirty years. Ms. Tayler said our banked capacity represents approximately $0.06 cents per $1000, Mr. Calhoun said that we will delve deeper into banked capacity at upcoming meetings. Deputy City Attorney Lamb discussed additional revenue source options, starting with Transportation Benefit Districts (TDDs) which he said is a quasi-municipal corporation that can he formed. Ha said the City can assume the powers of the TBD or it can sit as the legislative body for the TB]). He said revenue sources through a TBD come from additional sales taxes, property taxes, vehicle tabs, and impact fees. Those revenue sources are then turned into bonds for large projects. He said Spokane, Liberty Lake and Lincoln Heights all have TBDs. Other revenue sources to Cook at include Developer Contributions with benefits that include impacting only those causing the issues rather than the whole city, however, he said one of the limitations is that TBDs only address the impacts from new development and they do not fix issues incurred from previous development. He said the size and scope of a project is a challenge because a major development can be 500 homes or units and that will not generate a large amount of money to tackle issues such as the grade separation crossings. Another challenge is timing because the money only comes in at the time of development, Mr. Lamb said that Impact Fees are GMA authorized fees that can be used for public streets and transportation, but they cannot be used to fund existing deficiencies or to pay the full cost of new facilities. He said they are adopted by schedule, can be Citywide or limited to a particular area, and involve an extensive rate analysis to determine the rates for various types of Council Special Meeting Worl t up:Os-l5-2OI6 Page 5 of 13 Apprrved by Council:04-26-2016 development. The schedule is useful to developers in determining fees they will need to pay. He said Local Improvement Districts (LIDS} are a smaller-scale financing tool assessing those who will benefit from the improvement. Property owners benefitting from the project pay for their portion of the benefit and the City pays the balance of the general benefit. Councilman Gothmann said a quiet zone project sounds like an opportunity to utilize this revenue source and Mr, Lamb confirmed. He said an LII is initiated by citizens or by Council. He said LIDs are not used very commonly because it is a time consuming and extensive process to go through and can be contentious if the property owners do not like their assessments, He said Developer Contributions for Direct Impacts of Development have constitutional and statutory restrictions and the fee needs to be proportional to the impact. He said the City currently utilizes developer fees but they generate tens of thousands of dollars rather than hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars. Councilmember Wood said he does not understand how an LID would be used for a quiet zone. Mr. Lamb said an LID creates a district with designated boundaries and properties within those boundaries that benefit from a project are assessed for the cost associated with the benefit. The assessed amount becomes a lien on the property and the property owner pays the fee annually over time. He said petitions can be used for citizens to either initiate or block an LID. Mr. Calhoun said we have an extensive amount of information regarding quiet Danes on our website. He said that as an example, if a project benefits 100 people and costs $100 thousand, the City fronts the cost and does the project. Upon completion, the City issues local improvement bonds for$100 thousand and takes a lien on the 100 homes, sends bills to the properly owner who makes annual payments over the life of the bond and the City releases the bonds. If the resident does not pay the City, the City initiates foreclosure proceedings. He said it is a common form of financing projects in many cities. Councilmember Wood asked if quiet zone can extend from city limit to city limit. Public Works Director Guth said one issue is that horns are required going in and out of the rail yard but if we go through all the federal requirements and make the improvements we could have quiet zones at all the crossings. Councilmember Grafos said if the City utilized an LID for a quiet zone,the key would be how large the LID district is to determine how large the impact fee is to the property owners and asked if that wouldbe the first step. .11elr. Lamb concurred and said the bigger the district means more people can challenge the LID but also means there are more people to offset the cost for those improvements. Couneilmember Pace asked if the City has the authority to increase the number of signatures required on a petition for an LID or who determines the percentage of signatures needed. Mr. Lamb said Council authorizes the formation of a district and as part of that decision Council could determine if it wanted to make a requirement for a higher number of petitioners at that time. Finance Director Taylor discussed the Real Estate Excise Tax (REET) revenue projection amounts. She said in 2017 the dollar amount for Pavement Preservation increases significantly and the contributions to the Pavement Preservation fund from the Civic Facilities Replacement fund will be depleted in 2016, the balance of which will be picked up by REET funds. She said that will impact the fund balance, going from $3.3 million in 2015 to less than $200 thousand by the end of 2020. Mr. Calhoun said the Pavement Preservation Program committed funds are healthy through 2020. He said the 2416 figure may be low for the projected REET amount and that the thing to consider with REET is that it is "reliably unreliable"so staff is conservative with its projections as REET trends with the economy. He said REET funds are also used for construction matches as well as pavement preservation, so the more REET funds contributed to pavement preservation, the Less funds are available for construction matches. Councilmember Hafner asked if we are still budgeting six percent for pavement preservation and Mr. Calhoun confirmed that we are. Ms. Taylor said the utility tax revenue available to the City include a six percent tax for electricity, gas, steam and telephone. She said utility taxes with no rate limits are allowed for sewer and storrnwater, solid waste, water and cable television. Currently the City only imposes a utility tax of six percent on telephone providers and the revenue is designated for use in the street fund but there are no statutory limits on how the revenue is used. Councilmember Gothmann said some electrical providers in Spokane Valley consider themselves municipalities and we cannot tax them. City Attorney Driskell said if a utility provider is quasi-municipal entity they would be treated differently with respect to a utility tax when Council Special Meeting Workshop:03-15-2016 Page 6 of 13 Approved by Counei[:04-26-2016 compared to a privately owned utility, but a decision from the state Supreme Court likely changes that dynamic so he said he would not rule electrical utility taxes out et this point. Councilmember Hefner asked what the reduction in revenue is due to cell phones. Ms. Taylor said it is decreasing at an average annual rate of approximately 4.92 percent Mr. Calhoun said staff is looking to get an audit whereby there would be no out-of-pocket cost fur the audit, hut the auditor would take fitly percent of the unpaid tax. revenues, Mayor Higgins called for a break at 10.30 a.m. The meeting reconvened at 10:40 a.in. 4. Pursue a sustainability plan in connection with the City's Pavement Preservaticm ,program to include sustained fundi_ in both the Street O-crntinc Fund L01 and Pavement Preservation Fund ii311 to address concerns beyond the year 2020—Eric Guth,Chelsie Taylor Deputy City Manager Calhoun said this topic deals with pavement preservation and street operating and management funds. The delta is the amount of money suggested we put toward pavement preservation and the amount we actually commit. The suggested amount is $6.8 million per year and currently we are at $4.2 million per year, which he said is a substantial amount, Public Works Director Guth said IMS scans portions of our streets every two years so for the most part they are able to capture the fall city in a four-year term. They put the information into a software program that details out a priority list,comparing each street in different categories against each other to come up with a priority list for each type of improvement. He said when scanning the streets, it shows the cracking, rutting and other deteriorations and treatments necessary. The streets having e. Pavement Condition index (PCI) of 45-65 are in need of replacement, streets with a PCI of 65-75 can he repaired with overlay or patching, and streets with a PC1 of 75-85 need minor rejuvenation treatments. He said the PC1 results for 2015 are based on an area that was scanned and the bulk of those streets are in good condition with greater than thirty percent rated excellent and less than eight percent rated poor. To keep the system at today's level, the consultant recommends $6.8 million annually in preservation. He said the current PCI level is 71. Funding sources include a grant fund average of$1million, average pavement preservation funds of $2.3 million, and average maintenance funds of$900 thousand totaling$4.2 million that we are currently funding, leaving a gap of$2.6 million per year underfunded. He said this program is heavily funded by REET funds and after 2017, the general fund and street fund will only contribute $1 million and the balance of that $2..3 million will come from REET. He said the City may need to find alternative funding sources or new revenue to replace or supplement the REET funds. Finance Director Taylor said she is addressing the $2.3 million coming out of the general fund (six percent) for pavement preservation. The 2013 and 2014 contributions were $282 thousand, in 2015 contributions dropped to $206 thousand and in 20116 to $67 thousand due to challenges experienced in the street fund. She said the total expenditures have been fairly constant and we are projecting the ending fund balance in 2020 will be approximately $5.5 million. Mr. Calhoun said in 2015, the fund balance is $2.6 million but we are projecting that by 2020 the fund balance will be $5.5 million. He said the question to consider is, Is the Council comfortable with $4.2 million per year or does it want to go with the recommended £6.8 million and what can the City afford? Mayor Higgins asked how dependable the $6.8 million figure is and if the world will end if we stay at our current level of funding. Mr. Guth said this is a guide with predictions of weather, travel habits, vehicle mixes, and other types of wear and tear on the roads and he said it is art indication that we are not meeting the full need. Ile said our focus has been on arterials and not residential streets and the recommendation is for all of our streets. He said we are not in dire need but he does not disagree that the PCI level will decrease over time if we do not fund the program at $6.8 million per year. He also pointed out that with the County's sewering of the Valley we benefitted because several of our streets were repaved and that helped bring our PCI levels up to our current status. Councilmember Hafner said we are a driving community and citizens do not walk to most places and preventative maintenance is important. Councilmember Grafos said he thinks we should increase the funds each year for pavement preservation because the streets continue to deteriorate. Council Special Meering Workshop:013-15.2016 Pnge"r of 13 Approved by Council:04-26-2U16 Councilmember Gothmann said now that the market has improved it is a good time to put more money toward pavement preservation. Councilrnember Pace said he agrees we should increase funds to $6.8 million but look at who pays for it and that the revenue source aligns with who benefits from it. Ms. Taylor said in looking at street fund 101 and assuming the phone utility tax decreases at an annual rate of 2.2 percent and that the preservation contribution from the street fend remains the same as the 2016 budgeted level through 2020, the end fund balance in 2020 will be $318 thousand, which is riot a sustainable path for the street fund. She said we are looking at utility taxes and we may need alternative revenue sources, such as a tax, to keep the fund going. Future revenue sources could be TBDs,or a tab fee of$20 per vehicle would add about $1.4 million. She said these funds would he used at tile discretion of Council and if the funds were committed to fund 311 that would decrease the need for REEL funds by one-half. If they were committed to the street fund, they would significantly increase the 2020 end fund balance to $3.5 million, 5.Continue and ex+and where iossible economic develoiment efforts, includin cg onstruction of the new Ci Hall. Coma lete retail and tourism studies develo and irn dement strete•les—John Hohman Community Development Director Holtman said he is here today to talk about the Economic Development Strategic Plan (EDSP), Economic Development (ED) Initiatives, and Economic Development Infrastructure plans. He said when he started five years ago as the director, Economic Development was not part of Community Development. A couple years ago the department was restructured to add focus to Economic Development without increasing staff. He said they identified they could leverage technical staff for this program and over the last few years they have been working on a large recruitment with Greater Spokane Incorporated (GSI) and he said they are now looking to formalize the program in a written manner. He said the plan will identify goals and strategies, and meet Council expectations and goals and the objectives and needs of the community. He said the Economic Development Initiatives include the marketing program, a retail and tourism enhancement study, and facility studies. He said they put out an RFQ to market the city for a 5-year strategic marketing plan, including branding and forming a clear message of what Spokane Valley is. He said we received nine submittals, five that are from firms local to our region and four firms outside of our region. Staff will conduct interviews with some or the firms and bring a final selection back to Council for approval. Mr. Holtman moved on to the Retail Improvement Strategies and said retail targets include auto dealers, local production retailers, better recruitment of restaurants and special events, and niche grocery/food stores_ Hesaid their next steps arc to meet with retailers, develop an inventory of spaces and properties for retail recruitment, and consider hiring a retail recruiter to fill identified gaps and target specific areas. Councilmember Pace said the strategies and action items look encouraging but he said we need to look at a balance between property rights and good things for the City. Ccuncilmember Wood said he is not sure why the Valley does not have any high-scale restaurants and it seems downtown (Spokane) draws all of the upscale restaurant business so he would like to see what we can do to bring in quality restaurants Mr. Hohman said they will be looking at ways to provide venues that will draw full-service and higher quality restaurants into the Valley. Mr. Hohman said with regard to the Tourism Enhancement Study, challenges identified by our stakeholders are that there is no distinct community identity or City brand, no central activity core, limited restaurants, few minor local attractions, and no regional draw. Opportunities for tourism include a multipurpose sports facility, creating a defined center by encouraging a concentration of businesses that attract shoppers, and promoting the City as a gateway to other destinations such as Mt. Spokane. Councilrnember Gothmann said Valleyfest draws 45 thousand people per year and we could work with them to increase tourism. Mr. Calhoun mentioned the interlocal with Central Valley School District, Liberty Lake and Spokane County for the Plante's Ferry Improvement and Liberty Lake Dallfrelds. He said we received five responses to the RFP and selected CSL International for the study and anticipate completion of the study the end of April, 2016. Mr. Hahman said the comprehensive Plan update will have a strong focus in ED and will incorporate goals, policies, and strategic actions identified. He said the ED Infrastructure Plan will be a formal approecli in how we handle developing infrastructure and putting ED efforts at the forefront. He said infrastructure needs identified in the Mirabeau area Council Special Meering Workshop:03-15-2016 Page l;of 13 Approved by Council:04-26-2016 include sewer, pump stations, force mains, gravity collection systems, streets, and water. He said the County is moving forward with the first phase of a sewer system from Sullivan Bridge to Euclid and heading east along the Central Pre-Mix pit to just east of Tshirley. He said he hopes to have more detail put into the plans by the end of the year. Mr. Calhoun said the ED plan is encouraging because it is looking at ways to grow the=enemy rather than looking for revenue sources. 6. Evaluate and discuss increasing costs to public safety, including law enforcement. Seek lone-term solutions to keeping costa in check while better serving,the community — Morgan Koudelka, John Pietro., Cary Driskell, Chief Van Leuven, Lt.Matt Lyons Senior Administrative Analyst Koudelka said this was a Council goal for 2015 and again in 2016 and it is a large contract that takes up most of the public safety costs. He said the first couple agreements had an eighteen-month termination clause and in the 2010 negotiations the County and Sheriff wanted a longer cancellation term from the City due to costs associated with their investment in equipment and staff; Spokane Valley makes up half of their cost and revenues. He said the process for termination is still eighteen months; however, if we start a term we must finish it and our current four-year term ends at the end of 20 I7. If we gave notice toward the end of 2017, our obligation is eighteen months, but once we enter into a new term, we would be obligated to complete the four-year period, He said a tr�ansitian plan is required. He said when we first incorporated it was important to citizens that we have our own identity so we have contract terms that allow us to have distinct identification such as patches for our uniforms and distinctive logos and paint schemes on our cars. Councilmernber GQthrnann said there are other cities that contract for police services that have citizens who do not feel having a separate community identity is important. Mr. Koudelka said that identifying items increase cost to the City, such as letterhead, patches, and paint schemes an cars. City Attorney Driskell said we looked at what it would take to modify the contract (section 15) and what formalities we would have to follow. He said we have an independent contractor relationship with the Sheriff's department which he says is important in that we are paying for the service and we do not tell them how to do their job which limits the City's liability. We tell them the City's policing priorities and they enforce the law as the Sheriff instructs them to do. If the Sheriff's department or County is sued, the City is not generally included in the lawsuit. 1Fie said we need to be careful in what we tell them we want done so as not to breach the independent contractor relationship. Councilmeniber C+othmann said one Liability solution is to do what we are currently doing which is contracting with the County for services. Councilmember Grafos said he does not think the police department is part of our identity and thinks our city is more than a police uniform. Mr. Driskell said if we want to modify the contract, it needs to be in writing and authorized by the Council, signed by the County Commissioners and the Sheriff and Spokane Valley. Mr. Koudelka said if we want to change the number of dedicated officers, we are able to do that because it is identified in the contract that we can do that.. Councilmember Hafner asked if there are any red flags we need to discuss in the current agreement. Mr. Calhoun said in the past, any issues have been handled by the City Manager, the Sheriff and the Police Chief. Chief Van Leuven said they have quarterly meetings to discuss issues. Chief Van Leuven discussed the uniforms and said the deputies assigned to Spokane Valley precinct will wear the Sheriff's uniform identified with a blue Spokane Valley patch on the left shoulder. He said if Spokane Valley did not have separate identifiers, the presence of similar cars and uniforms gives the impression of a larger force. He said the Class A uniform costs $137,01 and officers normally need a couple of each in long sleeve and short sleeve depending on the time of year. The Class B uniform is a field uniform and he said two sets cost $252.12. Jumpsuits, which relieve some back strain due to equipment taken from the utility belts, cost between $519 and $595. He said deputies assigned outside of Spokane Valley that are transferred to Spokane Valley or work overtime shifts within the City, maintaining uniformity and Spokane Valley identity would require outfitting an additional sixty or so deputies with Valley uniforms for an additional cost of $54,508.80. Councilmember Grafos said he would like to poll Council to see if there is a problem with going to the same uniforms as the Sheriff Council Special Mceting Workshop:03-13-20 I 6 Page 9 of 13 Approved by Council;04-26-70 I6 Counoilmert bcr Wood said he would need to think about it. Couneilmember Hafner said the identifying uniforms do not matter to him. Chief Van Leuven said with regard to patrol vehicles, in 2011 we switched to Ford Explorers and the manufacturer changed the color in 2014 to a slightly darker blue. The County Sign Shop produces the striping on the cars at a savings of$500 per vehicle and are able to stripe a car in just over an hour. In 2015, he said we obtained three lease return vehicles with just over 30 thousand miles on them for approximately$12 thousand each. Cauncilmem,ber Hefner asked what the current condition of the fleet is. Chief Van Leuven said the shop staff keeps our fleet in very good condition; he said we have a lot of 'vehicles but they are in good shape. For emergency response, the cars need to be pursuit-rated so cars with high miles need to replaced. He said currently we have four unmarked cars that they are looking to rotate out and will be replaced in 2016 with Spokane Valley marked SUVs. Deputy Mayor Woodard asked what the plan is for identifying the Sheriff's cars and Chief Van Leuven said the cars will remain green and white and they have no plans to change them. Mayor Higgins called for-a lunch break at 12:35 p.m. The meeting reconvened al 1.•10 p.m. Chief Van Leuven said in 2014 a rawer Shift plan was approved and it has been a great success, it has increased the morale of officers, improved service to citizens and enhanced efficiencies,especially during peak call time. Lt. Lyons said the staffing levels have hindered them from fully implementing the Power Shift, but the difference is profound. He said the response time is considerably less during peak calls and it is a priority and goal to get the Power Shift frilly running. Councilman Gothmann asked if staff is low due to recruitment and Lt. Lyons said recruitment and the retention of staff are their biggest challenges. Lt. Lyons said in the early 1990's upwards of a thousand people took the civil service test in Spokane County and now it is difficult to get one-hundred people interested. He said added to that, a larger number of applicants are disqualified due to not being able to pass the background checks and other criteria. He said our numbers match those of other jurisdictions statewide, and the competition is fierce for eligible candidates. Retention is difficult because people find the job too stressful and others go where the money is. To mess a larger and better quality pool of applicants, we were able to join and contract with Public Safety Testing(PST) so people in other jurisdictions can test for Spokane Valley openings without having to travel here. He said PST does all the marketing to colleges and other agencies. Spokane County Sheriff's department sends a team to the testing sites to help recruit by pointing out the benefit to working for the Sherif and Spokane Valley. PST updates their list sixty-eight times per year so we continue to work from the top of the list for candidates He said we are also taking the recruiting team to military transitions and colleges to talk with students in eastern Washington, Idaho and Montana and he said they will be targeting the west side of the state this spring. He said negative publicity has also hurt the retention and recruitment of officers. Washington State has higher levels of certifications and requirements that can make it stressful to get into this field. He said in 2013, forty-eight new deputies were hired, of which thirty-five remain. Mr. Koudelka said the County CEO suggested a joint meeting to come up with solutions to alleviating shortages. Deputy Mayor Woodard asked where most recruits are coming from and what the trends are. Chief Van Leuven said they are looking for laterals and offer $3,000 incentive to laterals but King County offers $6,000 to laterals. He said there are career-change hires and they try to balance laterals and new hires;they have recruited many from North Idaho and they have a great training post but they are in the same situation we are in that they have a lower pay so their officers transfer to Spokane and our officers transfer to the west side. Chief Van Leuven said they have six districts that are served "twenty-fourfseven." He said the call load for Spokane Valley is typically higher than the unincorporated areas. Lt. Lyons said Spokane Valley does not subsidize costs to unincorporated areas because there is too much activity in the Valley and the calls are tracked in the Computer Animated Dispatch (CAD) system. Ile said the CAD system does not extrapolate how many deputies go on a service call, the system is antiquated and contains so much data Council Special Meeting Workshop:03-15-2016 Page 10 of 13 Approved by Council:04-26-2016 that he cannot get to that number. However, he said it is much more often that unincorporated officers are coming in to Spokane Valley to assist rather than the other way arourtd. Deputy Mayor Woodard asked about the take-home cars and how it impacts starting shifts. Lt. Lyons said the unincorporated area has had the take-home cars for quite some time and in March of 2015 they started the program with Spokane Valley officers. Linder the old system, lie said a deputy would need to find a car and if it was during a shift overlap there may not be a car yet. They would then load the car and get it warmed up or cooled down before leaving, which takes up to twenty minutes at the beginning and end of each shift. With the take-home car program, they pick up an additional forty to forty-five minutes per shift and he said that during major events they are able to get everyone out at once without having to scramble for vehicles. During Ice Storm he said they had to rent vehicles to get extra force out. Deputy Mayor Woodard asked how many officers live within our city limits and Lt.Lyons responded approximately forty percent. Chief Van Leuven said officers are required to have their radio and gun on when driving to and from home and are required to respond to calls. He said the take-home car program provides an additional presence in neighborhoods and communities and increase the morale and accountability of officers and they take better care of their vehicles. Councilmember Hefner asked about the new CAD system and if it will allow them to determine how many officers are responding to calls in Spokane Valley. Lt. Lyons said that is his understanding and currently if an unincorporated officer responds to a call in the Valley and she is the primary officer, he can find that information in the CAIS system but he cannot extract who else responds to the call. Chief Van Leuven said officers with take-home vehicles must live within twenty miles of the city limits of Spokane Valley_ He said there are several reasons people might see Spokane Valley vehicles outside of the city limits, such as officers driving to and from work, to and from the training center, or follow up investigations outside of the city limits; driving to hospitals,jails, or court; or providing backup assistance to other agencies or special incidents. He said they are always striving for efficiencies and cost savings strategies include SCOPE stations that logged 31,973 hours in 2015 saving $727,516.01.1, buying lease return vehicles, applying in-house car decals, eliminating studded tires, using shared resources, and contracting out the records division to Spokane Police department. He said forensics is a joint accredited team, and the Power Shift has reduced overtime. Councilmember Gothmann said 1.6 percent of crimes are unsolvable because we do not have the manpower. Lt. Lyons said we have not been able to keep the Power Shift consistently tilled. Mr. Koudelka said the chart for commissioned officers by function does not capture all units and the number moves around from year to year. He said the chart shows 107.5 full time employees (ftc) and we typically use half of the shared services. The largest unit is patrol, then property and drug crimes, and traffic. He said the support functions do not utilize officers. He said staff pampered law enforcement of Spokane Valley with other cities of our size, as well as Spokane, Lakewood, and Federal Way that also contracted for services when it incorporated. He said the average number of officers per 1000 for other cities is 1.43, whereas Spokane Valley is 1. He said Spokane Valley costs include IT, HR, facility maintenance, and support, and said we tried to capture the same costs with other jurisdictions in the comparison. Ideally, he said we are looking to have officers proactively patrolling for one-third of their time, although there is no specified standard, we are shooting for eight-hundred calls per officer to allow for that extra time. He said Spokane Valley is not like other jurisdictions and we are fiscally conservative_ Mayor Higgins called for a break al 2:15 p.m The meelrng reconvened at 2:35 p.m. Mr. Koudelka said there has been an increase of 1.15 percent over the last five years in our public safety services contract. He said there have been reductions in vacant positions and no COLA increases. The contract is a four-year term that auto renews and has an eighteen-month termination notice requirement. He said we started this contract in 2003 and in 2010 agreed to a new contract that added an administrative lieutenant, a school resource officer and two patrol officers. It also eliminated corporals and created a dedicated property and drug crime unit, created a Power Shift to address high call loads, and eliminated duplicative jail charges. He said they are negotiating a credit for the public safety building and garage Council Special Meeting Workshop:03-15-2016 Page I 1 of 13 Approved by Council:44-26-2016 charges in recognition of the Valley precinct, and negotiating a reduction in the commissioned officer charge in recognition of vacant positions. He said the detention serviced contract has seen an average increase in cost of 0.81 percent over the last five years, primarily due to a reduction in our usage percentage. Our usage has decreased and some of that decrease was intentional with the new relicensing program and pre-file diversion program, but we are looking into other factors to see where the decrease is coming from. He said Electronic Home Monitoring was brought back with cost control measures including usage of alternatives to incarceration when appropriate, evaluating housing options and increasing our revenue from other agencies. The District Court contract has seen our usage go down nearly 7 percent and he said we are currently evaluating the contract. It has a termination notice of 180 days but is subject to RCW 3.50.810 requiring notice at least one year prior to February 1 of the year in which all district court judges are subject to election. The next election will be in 2018, meaning notice would have to occur by February 1, 2017. He said we replaced outdated weighted cost measures with local workload analysis, a new methodology that accounts for civil, small claims, and mental health cases, placing a larger share of cost allocation to cases that are not the City's responsibility, pre-file diversion, true diversion for electronic tickets, and pursuing a court budget that is reflective of the workload. The Public Defender contract reflects an average reduction of 2.58 percent over the last five years. The contract auto renews each year with a 180-day termination notice. He said caseload standards provide for 400 cases per public defender to be able to provide an adequate defense. In 2015, it looked as though they would need to hire two public defenders but it was proposed to hire two prosecutors instead and implement pre-file diversions enabling us to save money. He said the average reduction to the contract for Prosecutor services is 0.09 percent. He said our cost in 2014 was lower titan it was in 2010. The agreement is for one year, it auto renews and has a 180-day termination notice. He said the challenges with this contract include an increase in supervisory costs and additional attorneys added in 2015. We negotiated methodology that spreads the costs among all departments and funds that utilize services and resolve land-use cases without going to court to lower costs. The Animal Control contract has had an average cost reduction of 2.11 percent since 2004. We started a new interlocal agreement in 2014 for a regional system and new shelter. He said Spokane County is the provider and the contract's end date is 2033; the contract has a termination notice of 180 days but the City would still be obligated to debt service. He said the license revenue is lower than anticipated which is a challenge, and we negotiated a fixed rate with a CPI cap. Mr. Koudelka said the Pre-Trial services contract determines if someone is eligible for a public defender. He said the costs for this contract have increased 6.09 percent and our usage has increased 2,37 percent since 2010. The agreement started in 2005, auto renews and has a 180- day termination notice. He said there have been large cost increases due to additional functions and increase in usage. The Emergency Management contract has had art average increase 3.57 percent; we are under contract until it is terminated and it requires a 180-day termination notice. He said the contract for Probation services auto renews annually and requires a 180-day termination notice. The current agreement allows the County to keep all probation fees in return for providing the service. Mr. Koudelka listed some of the cost comparisons with other Washington cities within twenty percent population of Spokane Valley for the public safety contract services as they are listed on the updated hand-out (included). In comparing revenues with Spokane, Spokane received $203 million compared to $45 million received by Spokane Valley. He said Spokane has a higher levy rate because they offer fire and library services and pointed out the significant difference in utility sales taxes with Spokane Valley ninety percent lower than Spokane. He said other areas of significant difference include fines and penalties, interest and investments, and lodging tax. Overall, he said Spokane Valley's revenue is forty- two percent lower than Spokane. In comparing us to other cities, some have a B .0 tax, we are similar to the average in property tax revenues and he said the majority of cities have parking enforcement and an admissions tax that Spokane Valley does not have. 7, Work toward completion of the Comprcleeesive Plan update—John Hohman= Council Special Meeting Workshop:03-J5-2016.
