can select from:
• Three indemnity medical plans for active employees
• Two retiree medical plans and an HMO option
• 7 dental and 5 orthodontia programs for active employees
• 1 retiree dental plan
• 4 Vision Plans
• Life insurance including group life, AD&D,
dependent life and supplemental life
• f
• Long Term Disability
• Long Term Care
• An Employee Assistance Program (EAP) —
a private and confidential counseling service
for employees and their families.
There's an option for every city at competitive rates and excellent
coverages. Over the past nine years, AWC's rates stayed below
or significantly below the national average for Employee Benefit
Trust members.

AWC Risk Management Service Agency
A couple of things can be learned just from this program's
name. First is risk management and second is service. AWC
RMSA understands cities. We know what it takes to help
parks and rec or public works. We work with small city police
departments. We understand resource and staff limitations.
We can diagnose your potential problems and offer advice
and training to avoid exposing your assets to risk.
A Comprehensive Insurance Package
The AWC RMSA offers a comprehensive package consisting of
property, liability, auto, police, E&O, Employee Fidelity, Crime
and Boiler & Machinery. Most coverages have no deductible
with limits starting at $1 million and going to $5 million. Rates
are competitive and coverages are broad. Hopefully you'll never
need it, but you'll sleep well at night knowing its there.

Instead of taking months to recuperate,the city turned to
the AWC RMSA and was on its way to building a new city
hall faster than anyone could have imagined.
This summer,the Town of Oakesdale suffered a fire in our Town
Hall.The response of the AWC RMSA was overwhelming.Within
a couple of days,we had a portable office moved on site, hooked
up with lights, phones, and computers.We were given assistance
to get back on our feet and operating as quickly as possible.
Without all the excellent help from the RMSA,we would still be
trying to sort out our mess. Our hats are off to the AWC RMSA for
their fine work.

COMMIJTE TRIP REDUCTION
The City has a number of programs designed to encourage employees to commute to
work other than by means of a single occupant vehicle. There are a number of ways in
which employees can commute to work in an environmentally-sensitive way: vanpooling,
carpooling, riding the bus, bicycling, or walking; or by eliminating trips to work by
means of working a compressed work week or telecommuting.
To encourage employees to ride the bus, the City sells bus passes for $17.50 (instead of
the regular price of $25.00) and bus tokens for 600 apiece (instead of the regular 750
apiece).
To encourage biking and walking to work, the City has bike racks and showers at its
major facilities.
To encourage its employees to work fewer than five days each week at work, the City
encourages working compressed work weeks or telecommuting. The most common
compressed work weeks are four ten-hour shifts or the 9/80 plan, which involves working
nine days in a biweekly pay period. (Under the 9/80 plan, an employee works eight nine-
hour days and one eight-hour day.) Employees wishing to work a compressed work week
or to telecommute need to obtain necessary approvals from their department and other
appropriate officials.
To encourage vanpooling and carpooling, the City has a limited number of free parking
spaces available for employees who vanpool or carpool.
The City guarantees a ride home to all employees who commute to work other than by
means of a single occupant vehicle and who experience an exigency requiring traveling
home by means of transportation other than originally planned by the employee.
The City has four sites that qualify as worksites under the Commute Trip Reduction Act:
City Hall, the Public Safety Building, the Normandie/Mission complex, and the
Water/Solid Waste Complex. There is an employee transportation coordinator assigned
to each of those four complexes; consult that person for more information on one of these
valuable programs.

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION
The City of Spokane's goal for the performance evaluation program is to train, promote
and retain qualified employees to do their job, regardless of age, sex, pregnancy, race,
creed, color, national origin, marital status, veteran status or the presence of any physical
or mental disability, or actual sexual orientation. The City intends to achieve two-way
communications between employees and supervisors regarding expectations, performance,
and acknowledgement of employee accomplishments.
* All employees will have an opportunity to provide written comments on any
evaluation. If an employee disagrees with the findings or expectations stated in the
performance evaluation, he/she may request a meeting with the next level
supervisor or the Personnel Director.
* Employee performance evaluations are reviewed by the Personnel Department for
consistency and completeness.
* Each employee will be provided with a copy of his or her performance evaluation
for his/her records.
* All documentation of performance evaluations will be considered confidential to
the extent allowed by State law.
* Any changes to an employee performance evaluation will be discussed with that
employee and a copy of the revised evaluation will be provided to that employee
and to the Personnel Department.
TYPES OF PERFORMANCE EVALUATION REPORTS
There are five types of performance evaluations.
2-7
Employee Handbook, 7/95
ORIGINAL APPOINTMENT PROBATION
During the first year that an individual is employed with the City of Spokane, three
performance evaluations will be prepared for that employee. These reports will be
prepared and submitted during the fourth, eighth and eleventh months.
PROMOTIONAL PROBATION
When a classified employee is promoted to a higher classification, that employee is on
probation for six months. Performance evaluations will be prepared and submitted
during the third and fifth months of the probationary period.
ANNUAL REVIEWS
Each employee who successfully completes probation will have a performance evaluation
prepared and submitted each year of employment. This evaluation will take place on the
anniversary date of employment or date in class. Each report will be an evaluation of the
employee's performance since the last performance evaluation was completed.
PROMOTIONAL SCORE
Each employee who signs up for a promotional test through the Civil Service system will
have a special evaluation prepared and submitted if the last evaluation was completed
more than six months before the date of the test.
SPECIAL SUPERVISORY EVALUATIONS
A rating official or a reviewing official may request a special evaluation, outside of the
above cited time frames, on an employee under their supervision. These evaluations
normally are used to document significant improvements or declines in an employee's job
performance. Special evaluations are not to be used during the initial or promotional
probationary periods.

Employee Handbook, 7/95
SMOKE-FREE WORKPLACE

Washington Clean Indoor Air Act, there shall be no smoking in or near City buildings
except in designated smoking rooms that have separate mechanical exhaust systems and
which have "negative pressure." Smoking is banned in indoor or enclosed occupied

openings that may allow airflow directly into the building. Smoking in City vehicles,
except pool vehicles, may occur if all occupants agree.

locations.

by providing periodic stop smoking classes if sufficient interest is demonstrated by
employees.

Risk Management Summary
It is the opinion of this committee the following recommendations are considered for
adoption by the city council.
After a lengthy investigation we have found the best overall way of starting our new city
on the right path not only in risk coverage, but also training the City Council in the
beginning.
It is our recommendation the council join the Washington Cities Insurance Authority
(WCIA). WCIA is a national leader in municipal insurance pooling and is member run.
There are 104 current members. The value of their service is unparalleled by the training
that is provided by them to the council and subsequent managers. WCIA makes a huge
annual investment in member training. They are becoming the statewide leaders in civil
liability training. Some of the other training includes defensive driving, anti-harassment,
personnel management, city attorney seminar, land use, and safety. Following the
training program the council will have a much better understanding of risks that can and
may pose threats to the city, whether it be talking with the news media to a 6 month
moratorium on land use.
The insurance shopping list to begin with, that are covered by WCIA would be:
• Liability (things you do to others)
• Property (fleet and real property)
• Crime/fidelity (dishonesty/money handling)
• Errors and Omissions (such as land use decisions)
• Boiler and Machinery (boilers and off-road equipment)
Insurance's that need to be purchased and not covered by WCIA would be:
• Workers Compensation Insurance (State Fund)
• Employee Health Benefits
• Life Insurance
Another service provided by WCIA is pre-defense review. This is pre-claim work that is
carried as a pool-wide expense (rather than against your claims history) to improve the
defensive posture of the city after something has happened.
The costs are driven by loss experience and worker hours and can be a little more
expensive, but again, the value far out ways the cost. For a better in depth view, we have
included their manual for your evaluation.
We have also included other insurances for quotes.

BANKING
From all appearances all banks are the same. What makes one stand out from the other
is the customer relationship and the willingness to work with the new city. When
choosing the bank that you want to work with you will need to look at the following:
• Can they issue warrants?
• Are there fees competitive?
• What is the procedure for getting a loan?

Since 1906
FARMERS & MERCHANTS BANK
MEMBER FDIC
Farmers &Merchants Bank has a 40 year history with the Spokane Valley. We were founded in 1906
by a group of Rockford, Washington farmers and businessmen who saw a need for a financial
institution to provide banking services for the local community. Their vision was to use local capital to
provide for growth of the community.
We survived the depression of the 1930's and by 1950,we were prospering. In the early 60's the Board
of Directors added several Spokane businessmen to add diversity and strengthen the management of
the bank It was the vision of these businessmen to expand Farmers &Merchants Bank from a rural
community bank to a major Spokane financial institution.
In 1961, the Directors of the bank decided to expand to the Spokane Valley and establish a branch
office. The expansion to Spokane would allow the bank to become more diversified in its customer
and loan base and not be dependent totally upon agriculture. In January 1962,the bank opened in the
Spokane Valley and introduced the concept of Saturday Banking.
In 1977, the bank was experiencing exciting growth in the Valley Office. Saturday banking was
generating customer and deposit growth that could not be properly serviced by the Valley Office. The
Valley Office, located in front of University East Shopping Center,was limited in the amount of space
available for expansion. The Board of Directors made the decision to establish a second Valley Office
at the corner of Sprague and Argonne. With the opening of the Sprague and Argonne drive-in facility,
Farmers &Merchants Bank introduced 24-hour drive-in banking, becoming one of the few banks in
the entire United States to offer a 24-hour manned banking facility.
In 1997, Farmers &Merchants Bank entered into an agreement with Tidyman's to establish three in-
store-banking facilities including one branch in their store on Argonne.
Today, with over$100,000,000 in deposits in the new City limits,Farmers &Merchants Bank ranks 3`d
in deposits among banks and thrifts. We are the only bank whose headquarters are in the new city
limits.
Farmers & Merchants Bank is committed to making the new City a success. We are the largest
employer among banks and thrifts within the new City, currently employing 75 individnnls. Not only
are our headquarters in the new City;we also house all of our servicing areas within the City limits.
We have demonstrated our commitment to the Valley over the years, dedicating both employee and
financial resources to the new City. Many of our employees serve as officers and board members of
various organizations in the Valley, including the Spokane Valley Chamber,Spokane Va.11eyMeals on
Wheels,the Sunrise Rotary and the Valley Rotary. We have also been active in Valleyfest.
Our employees have participated in the Spokane County Growth Management Planning process from
its inception. We actively participate in the Spokane Valley Chamber Transportation Committee and
have been an advocate for the funding of the Valley and regional road projects. ' •
