City Manager's Budget Message
2018 Annual Budget
Dear Citizens, Mayor and City Council of Spokane Valley:
It is with pleasure that I present the attached 2018 Budget for the City of Spokane Valley. The
City remains financially strong and continues to benefit from a history of prudent financial
decisions that have been made since our 2003 incorporation. Consistently responsible
budgeting and restrained spending have again helped us achieve the key Fiscal Policies noted
in the following pages.
The City of Spokane Valley continues to be an excellent example of how a City provides key
services to the community while holding down taxes, fees and other charges. Additionally, our
per capita employee count and personnel expenses are among the lowest (if not the lowest) of
comparable size cities in the state and around the U.S.
We recognize that to ensure continued financial stability, it is imperative that we achieve two key
goals within our General Fund:
1. Recurring annual revenues must be greater than or equal to recurring annual expenditures,
and
2. The ending General Fund fund balance must be sufficient enough to meet cash flow needs
which is no less than 50% of recurring expenditures and represents roughly six months of
General Fund operations.
We are pleased to report that each of these goals have again been achieved in the 2018
General Fund Budget.
Beyond recurring operating activity, and due to our excellent financial condition, we are afforded
the opportunity to use the portion of the General Fund fund balance that exceeds 50% for
nonrecurring expenditures in pursuit of programs important to the City Council and community.
Recent examples include General Fund contributions to each phase of the Appleway Trail
project, Sullivan Road West Bridge Replacement project, Appleway road landscaping, a cash
"down payment" for construction of a New City Hall, and beginning to set money aside for future
railroad grade separation projects and development of Balfour Park.

Fiscal Policies
Fiscal Health is at the Core of Providing a Good Public Service
The Fiscal Policies adopted by the City Council are important for the long-range fiscal strength
of Spokane Valley. These policies set a framework that the City will follow to responsibly
manage resources and if necessary, under what circumstances we will utilize reserves to
sustain operations during economic downturns.
Financial Management
The City will strive to:
1. Maintain basic service levels with minimal resources to achieve success.
2. Minimize personnel costs and overhead by continuing to contract for services when it makes
financial sense to do so.
3. Continue the six-year Business Plan process.
4. Leverage City funds with grant opportunities.
5. Minimize City debt with a pay as you go philosophy.
o The State of Washington sets the maximum level of allowable debt for cities based on
assessed value of property. The City of Spokane Valley currently utilizes only 2.10% of
its total debt capacity, and more importantly, only 10.50% of non-voted bond capacity.
This reflects an exceptionally low debt burden.
6. Strive to prioritize spending in the annual budget process and minimize the mid-year
addition of projects and appropriations.
Financial Objectives
The City's financial objectives are:
1. Adopt a General Fund Budget with recurring revenues equal to, or greater than recurring
expenditures.
2. Maintain a minimum General Fund Ending Fund Balance of at least 50% of the recurring
expenditure budget. This is adequate to meet cash flow needs and is the equivalent of six
months of general fund operations.
3. If necessary, utilize a portion of the Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund ($5.5 million)
to maintain ending fund balance minimum.
4. Commitment to the strategy that the Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund will not be
reduced below $3.3 million (60% of$5.5 million).
5. Maintain the 2018 property tax assessment the same as 2017 with the exception of new
construction. As in the previous eight years, the City will forego the one-percent annual
increase to property tax allowable by RCW 84.52.050. We anticipate this will result in a levy
of$11,646,122 plus estimated new construction of$150,000 for a total levy of approximately
$11,796,100. The allowable potential increase will be banked for future use as provided by
law. This effectively makes the ninth year in a row that we have not increased our City
property tax assessment.
6. Grow our economy so the existing tax base can support basic programs.
Commitment — By committing to these policies and the checks and balances they afford, the
City will ensure financial sustainability well into the future.

2018 Budget Highlights
City Priorities
The City's chief budget priorities are public safety, pavement preservation, transportation and
infrastructure (including railroad grade separations and park related projects) and economic
development. Ensuring that we've committed adequate resources to these activities accounts
for much of the effort that staff collectively dedicates to the annual development of our Business
Plan and Operating and Capital budgets.
Moderate Growth in Recurring General Fund Expenditures
Investing in essential core services identified by the Council and community establishes the
baseline expenditures we have included in this budget. Similar to the trend experienced in most
jurisdictions, we find that the cost of providing these services often increases at a faster rate
than the moderate growth we see in the underlying tax revenues that support these core
services. With that said however, City staff and Council collectively strive to meet the challenge
of continuing to provide historic levels of service and we will again meet this challenge in 2018
where we anticipate recurring revenues will increase over those of 2017 by 3.73%, while
expenditures increase by just 1.81%.
Public Safety Costs
Over the years Council has consistently committed to the maintenance and at times
enhancement of public safety service levels and this is again reflected in the 2018 Budget
where public safety costs including law enforcement, courts, prosecution, public defense and jail
related services total $25,464,251 which is an amount equal to 216% of anticipated property tax
collections (= $25,464,251 / $11,796,100).
City Hall Construction Project
Since incorporation in 2003 the City had leased City Hall office space and over that time frame
the City, like many of our residents, debated whether we were better off to continue renting or
owning our own home. In 2015, the City made the decision to construct a New City Hall at a
then estimated cost of$14.4 million. Through the balance of 2015 and into 2016 the City
acquired land, contracted with an architect for design services and construction occurred
between June 2016 and September 2017. With all costs for the facility accounted for, the actual
final price totaled $14.15 million or $250,000 less than our initial target. We financed the project
with a combination of$6.30 million in cash we set aside for this project and $7.85 million in net
LTGO bond proceeds. Repayment of the bonds will take place over the 30-year period of 2016
through 2045 at a fixed average annual payment of$399,888 which is $34,712 less per year
than the City's final annual lease payment of$434,600. The difference between continuing a
lease for 30 years at a conservatively estimated annual increase of 3% versus having this fixed
annual bond payment results in a savings to the community of approximately $8 million.
We recognize that occupying a building we own will result in a number of costs we haven't
historically borne as a tenant including facility maintenance, janitorial services and utilities. In
acknowledgment of this, beginning with the 2017 General Fund Recurring Budget, we created a
new department titled "City Hall Operations and Maintenance" that will account for the variety of
costs we anticipate we will incur. The 2018 Budget for this department is $306,043.
3
Staffing Levels
Staffing levels in 2018 are currently anticipated to increase by .85 full-time equivalent employee
(FTE) to 89.25 FTEs from the 88.4 FTEs included in the 2017 Budget. The addition of the .85
FTEs is a result of a number of personnel actions that are explained below:
FTEs in the adopted 2017 Budget 88.40
April 1, 2017 Reorganization (0.65)
Revised 2017 FTEs 87.75
2018 Changes
+ Attorney 0.50
+ Limited term employee moved to
regular status position 1.00
2018 Proposed FTEs 89.25
In the 2017 Budget, of the 88.40 FTEs, we included the wages of 3.5 FTEs in capital projects
leaving a net of 84.9 FTEs financed from operating funds. In the 2018 Budget, of the 89.25
FTEs, we include the wages of 4.5 FTEs in capital projects leaving a net of 84.75 FTEs financed
from operating funds. This reflects a net decrease of .15 FTEs financed from operating funds
between 2017 and 2018. These changes are depicted in the following analysis:
2017 2018 Difference
FTEs financed by operating funds 84.90 84.75 (0.15)
FTEs financed by capital projects 3.50 4.50 1.00
Total FTEs 88.40 89.25 0.85
Distribution of wage related costs to City funds are budgeted as follows:
FTEs Distribution by Fund
General Fund #001 74.63
Street O&M Fund #101 5.72
Street Capital Projects Fund #303 4.5
Stormwater Fund #402 4.4
89.25
Taking into consideration that we contract for police services and are served by Fire Districts
and a Library District, for a major city we are operating substantially below the normal employee
count and consequently at a significantly reduced payroll cost relative to many cities across the
country. Spokane Valley personnel costs are approximately 21.2% of the total General Fund
recurring expenditures. Spokane Valley staff levels average about one employee for every
1,054 citizens while comparably sized cities in the State of Washington have a much higher
ratio of employees to citizens.
Since incorporation, the City has taken a conservative approach to adding new staff and
continues to have the lowest per capita employee count of any Washington city with a
population of 50,000 or greater. By all comparisons, the City of Spokane Valley is a lean,
productive City government.
4
Pavement Preservation
Beginning in 2012, the City initiated spending of general fund, special revenue fund and capital
project fund revenues and reserves for the purpose of financing our street preservation efforts.
In 2018, our citizens will again see an aggressive program of repaving our roadways. Some
may question paving roads that "don't look so bad" but the truth is the best time to repave is
before a road deteriorates to the point that full reconstruction is necessary. Full reconstruction
can cost substantially more than pavement preservation treatments such as crack sealing or
grinding and repaving. This is why the City of Spokane Valley has committed critical financial
resources to the preservation of our transportation infrastructure. We hope you are as proud of
our fine road system as we are!
For 2018, we project total revenues in Pavement Preservation of$4,973,200 that will be applied
against $4,058,600 in projected expenditures. This will create a surplus in 2018 of$914,600
that will be applied to projects in subsequent years. Sources of revenue in 2018 include
$2,572,500 in grant proceeds, and $2,400,700 in transfers from other City funds consisting of:
• $962,700 from the General Fund
• $ 67,342 from Street O&M Fund #101
• $685,329 from REET 1 Capital Projects Fund #301
• $685,329 from REET 2 Capital Projects Fund #302
While Pavement Preservation is one of our critical service and budget priorities, we find that
sustaining historic levels of service is becoming more of a challenge with each passing year.
The following section titled "Challenges" articulates the issues we are currently facing.
Challenges
Beyond the annual challenge of balancing the General Fund budget, the City of Spokane Valley
has a number of on-going financial challenges.
1. Declining revenues in Street O&M Fund #101 that will impact our future ability to deliver
historic service levels
This Fund depends upon a combination of gas and telephone tax receipts.
• Because the gas tax is a flat amount per gallon, and because each generation of newer
vehicles get better gas mileage, we find our gas tax revenues have recently hovered
somewhere between either flat or declining. Due to the 2015 State Legislature's
increase in the gas tax we've seen a bit of an increase in this revenue source with a
2018 revenue projection of$2,052,000 which represents an increase of$117,000 (or
6%) over 2015 revenues of$1,935,000.
• The 6% telephone utility tax generated $3.1 million in the first year of implementation in
2009. Since that time however we have experienced a steady decline and at this point
are projecting 2018 revenues of just $1,900,000.
2. Balancing the cost of pavement preservation against other transportation and infrastructure
needs
• Pavement preservation has historically been financed from a combination of sources
including:
o General Fund dollars,
o Street Fund money,
o real estate excise tax (REET) receipts,
o grants, and
5
o Civic Facility Replacement Fund #123 (Fund #123) reserves that were dedicated
towards this purpose.
Because Fund #123 reserves were fully depleted in 2016, beginning in 2017 the City was
forced to dedicate more REET receipts towards pavement preservation in order to maintain
historic levels of funding.
• Street construction and reconstruction projects are typically financed through a
combination of state and federal grants plus a City match that normally comes from
REET receipts. The more we apply REET dollars towards pavement preservation
projects, the less able we are to leverage this revenue source towards street
construction and reconstruction projects. If one assumes we are able to obtain street
construction grants requiring a 20% City match, then every $1 of REET money we set
aside for this purpose leverages a $5 project.
3. Railroad Grade Separation and Quiet Zone Proiects (overpasses and underpasses)
Bridging the Valley is a proposal to separate vehicle traffic from train traffic in the 42 mile
corridor between Spokane and Athol, ID. The separation of railroad and roadway grades in
this corridor is intended to promote future economic growth, traffic movement, traffic safety,
aquifer protection in the event of an oil spill, and train whistle noise abatement. The
underlying study outlined the need for a grade separation at four locations in Spokane
Valley. The most recent estimates peg the total cost of these projects at $74.9 million
including:
• Barker and Trent Road Overpass (estimated cost of$20.0 million),
• Pines and Trent Underpass (estimated cost of$19.8 million),
• Sullivan Road Overpass improvements (estimated cost of$16.1 million), and
• Park Road Overpass (estimated cost of$19.0 million)
Because grade separation projects are exceptionally expensive endeavors and largely
beyond our ability to finance solely through existing sources of internal revenue, the City has
pursued grant funding from both the federal and state government over the past several
years. Incremental successes thus far includes:
Barker/Trent Grade Separation Proiect
• Estimated cost has been reduced from $36.0 million to $20.0 million (or less) by
determining that a full interchange is unnecessary.
• $720,000 Federal Earmark.
• $2,209,000 City earmark of real estate excise tax.
• $1,421,321 of City General Fund money earmarked for this purpose.
• $1,500,000 awarded by the WA State Legislature during the 2017 session.
• FMSIB grant that is a 20% match of the total project cost.
• Summary: Assuming a project cost of$20.0 million, the total of the aforementioned
financial commitments is $9.8 million leaving $10.2 million currently underfunded.
• On August 22, 2017 Council approved a Phase 1 contract to an engineering firm
valued at $173,000 with a scope of services that calls for evaluating five potential
options. The end result of the study will be a final recommended option with a
revised cost estimate. Following this, we will plan to enter a second phase where we
will contract with an engineering firm to take the recommended solution to a 100%
design.

• The City has applied for a variety of both state and federal grants (including the
TIGER and FASTLANE programs) and met with some success. We will continue to
apply for grant programs as they become available including the upcoming federal
INFRA and TIGER 9 programs. We are hopeful that having a 100% design will
make us more competitive as we will then have a "shovel ready" project.
Pines / Trent Grade Separation Proiect
• In the 2017 General Fund Budget, Council appropriated $1.2 million towards this
project and through 2018 Budget discussions has earmarked an additional $721,321
of excess General Fund reserves for a total of$1,921,321.
• In late 2016, the City acquired property valued at approximately $500,000 to provide
the necessary right-of-way for this project.
• Summary: Although the City has not obtained any outside financial assistance on
this project, we have committed $2,421,321 of internal funds towards this project.
• On July 11, 2017 Council approved a Phase 1 contract to an engineering firm valued
at $124,000 with a scope of services that calls for evaluating two potential options.
The end result of the study will be a final recommended option with a revised cost
estimate. Following this, we will plan to enter a second phase where we will contract
with an engineering firm to take the recommended solution to a 100% design.
• The City has applied for a variety of both state and federal grants (including the
TIGER and FASTLANE programs). We will continue to apply for grant programs as
they become available including the upcoming federal INFRA and TIGER 9
programs. We are hopeful that having a 100% design will make us more competitive
as we will then have a "shovel ready" project.
The Budget for 2018
Strong but Guarded
Recognizing that fiscal health is at the core of providing good public services, one of the most
important tests of fiscal management is the ability of a municipal enterprise to maintain basic
services during an economic downturn. The creation and ongoing maintenance of financial
reserves since incorporation has served its intended purpose of providing Spokane Valley the
means to sustain critical public services during the turbulent economic conditions that began in
2008 and only recently subsided. The 2018 budget again reflects a prudent and guarded
increase in continuation of service delivery capabilities. These increases are carefully
considered and well within the means of the City. Service delivery cannot grow faster than the
economic development of the City.
Balanced Budget
Means exactly what it says —operating expenses have been balanced with known or
reasonably predictable revenues with no increase in property tax or in sales tax rates for the
City. The budget is designed to maintain the healthy, positive fund balance at year-end
providing the City's cash flow needs without costly borrowing. In pursuit of fiscal responsibility,
special attention is given to limiting the growth in new programs and financial commitments.
This approach allows available resources to be put toward sustaining services consistent with
the City Council's priorities for 2018 and beyond.
Future Concepts
The budget process is not static and Council, the citizens, and staff must collectively remain
vigilant in our observance of economic trends that may impact current and future forecasts. We
accomplish this by constantly evaluating local, state and national events that may have an
impact on our own community and work towards capitalizing on our strengths, minimizing our
weaknesses, and being ever watchful towards both threats and opportunities. To the best of
our ability we will focus on business retention, expansion and recruitment. Examples of ongoing
and future economic development efforts are as follows:
Comprehensive Plan — In 2016 the City updated its Comprehensive Plan and included an
economic development element. Contained within this element is a summary of the local
economy; an assessment of strengths and weaknesses; and policies, programs and
projects to foster economic growth. This plan also included implementation strategies to
improve retail, enhance tourism, and grow businesses in the City. Among other things, the
plan also streamlined land uses by consolidating many zones and reducing many
development requirements. Additionally the plan was also designed to provide flexibility in
an effort to encourage market driven growth.
Retail Recruitment— In 2017 the City expanded into the area of Retail Recruitment by
contracting with a firm specializing in this type of service. The services we are seeking in
this effort include a review of the retail recruitment strategy developed in 2016; conducting a
market and retail gap analysis; development of a recruitment plan; identification of a
strategic retail prospect list; and ultimately, recruitment of retail on behalf of the City. We
have also included money in the 2018 Budget to continue this effort.
WA State Department of Commerce Environmental Permitting Grant— In the latter part
of 2016 the City received a $114,200 grant from the Department of Commerce that with an
additional investment of$55,000 from the City, will result in a streamlined environmental
permitting process in the northeast industrial area of our community. This study will
complete the environmental permitting requirements for the northeast industrial area,
ultimately leading to the development of a Planned Action Ordinance (PAO) that will save
industrial developers a minimum of 6 weeks permitting time while providing a predictable
path to ensure that adequate infrastructure is in place to serve the expected developments.
Completion of the PAO will allow the properties to be marketed as truly "shovel ready."

Acknowledgments
I would like to acknowledge the citizens, City Council and Staff for a long history of conservative
spending and prudent fiscal planning. By saving and conserving the taxpayers' money, and by
adopting and adhering to prudent long-term fiscal policies, the City can provide essential
services and balance its budget for many years to come.
The City Council continues to set a path to ensure the long-term financial sustainability of the
City. The management staff and employees have worked together to develop the Business
Plan and 2018 Budget recommendations to achieve the Council's ongoing goal of sustainability.
The Citizens of Spokane Valley should be proud of the strong financial condition of their City.
We invite your examination and questions regarding the 2018 Budget.
Respectfully,
Mark Calhoun
City Manager

TO: City Manager and Members of the City Council
FROM: Chelsie Taylor, Finance Director
SUBJECT: About the 2018 Budget and Budget Development Process
The budget includes the financial planning and legal authority to obligate public funds.
Additionally, the budget provides significant policy direction by the City Council to the staff and
community. As a result, the City Council, staff and public are involved in establishing the budget
for the City of Spokane Valley.
The budget serves four functions:
1. It is a Policy Document
The budget functions as a policy document in that the decisions made within the budget will reflect
the general principles or plans that guide the actions taken for the future. As a policy document,
the budget makes specific attempts to link desired goals and policy direction to the actual day-to-
day activities of the City staff.
2. It is an Operational Guide
The budget of the City reflects its operation. Activities of each City function and organization have
been planned, debated, formalized, and described in the following sections. This process will
help to maintain an understanding of the various operations of the City and how they relate to
each other and to the attainment of the policy issues and goals of the City Council.
3. It is a Link with the General Public
The budget provides a unique opportunity to allow and encourage public review of City operations.
The budget describes the activities of the City, the reason or cause for those activities, future
implications, and the direct relationship to the citizenry.
4. It is a Legally Required Financial Planning Tool
The budget is a financial planning tool, which has been its most traditional use. In this light,
preparing and adopting a budget is a State law requirement of all cities as stated in Title 35A of
the Revised Code of Washington (RCW). The budget must be adopted as a balanced budget
and must be in place prior to the beginning of the City's fiscal year. The budget is the legal
authority to expend public monies and controls those expenditures by limiting the amount of the
appropriation at the fund level. The revenues of the City are estimated, along with available cash
carry-forward, to indicate funds available. The budget takes into account unforeseen
contingencies and provides for the need for periodic adjustments.
2018 BUDGET DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
Historically the City has utilized a budgeting approach that assumed for most functions of
government that the current year's budget was indicative of the base required for the following
year. However, with the volatility that was seen in the economy with the Great Recession, the
City moved to a Budget development process that consciously reviews service levels in each
department and determines the appropriate level of funding that meets Council goals relative to
available resources.
11
The 2018 Budget development process began at the February 14, 2017 Council workshop where
among other topics, Council and staff discussed the budget in general terms. In mid-April 2017
the Finance Department notified City Departments that their 2018 revenue and expenditure
estimates were due by mid-May. Through the balance of May and early June, the City Manager's
office and Finance Department worked to prepare budget worksheets that were communicated
to the City Council at a Budget workshop held June 13, 2017. Following the workshop, the
Finance Department continued work on the budget including refinements of revenue and
expenditure estimates and through July and August, the Finance Department and City Manager
reviewed updated budget projections.
By the time the 2018 Budget is scheduled to be adopted on November 14, 2017, the Council will
have had an opportunity to discuss it on eight separate occasions, including three public hearings
to gather input from citizens:
June 13 Council budget workshop
August 22 Admin report: Estimated 2018 revenues and expenditures
September 12 Public hearing #1 on 2018 revenues and expenditures
September 26 City Manager's presentation of preliminary 2018 Budget
October 10 Public hearing #2 on 2018 Budget
October 24 First reading on ordinance adopting the 2018 Budget
November 14 Public hearing #3 on the 2018 Budget
November 14 Second reading on ordinance adopting the 2018 Budget
Once adopted, the final operating budget is published, distributed, and made available to the
public.
After the budget is adopted, the City enters a budget implementation and monitoring stage.
Throughout the year, expenditures are monitored by the Finance Department and department
directors to ensure that actual expenditures are in compliance with the approved budget. The
Finance Department provides the City Manager and City Council with monthly reports to keep
them abreast of the City's financial condition and individual department compliance with approved
appropriation levels. Any budget amendments made during the year are adopted by City Council
ordinance following a public hearing.
The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts within a fund; however, any
revisions that alter the total expenditures of a fund, or that affect the number of authorized
employee positions, salary ranges or other conditions of employment must be approved by the
City Council.
When the City Council determines that it is in the best interest of the City to increase or decrease
the appropriation for a particular fund, it may do so by ordinance adopted by Council after holding
one public hearing.
BUDGET PRINCIPLES
• Department directors have primary responsibility for formulating budget proposals in line with
City Council and City Manager priority direction, and for implementing them once they are
approved.
12
• The Finance Department is responsible for coordinating the overall preparation and
administration of the City's budget. This function is fulfilled in compliance with applicable State
of Washington statutes governing local government budgeting practices.
• The Finance Department assists department staff in identifying budget problems, formulating
solutions and alternatives, and implementing any necessary corrective actions.
• Interfund charges will be based on recovery of costs associated with providing those services.
• Budget amendments requiring City Council approval will occur through the ordinance process
at the fund level prior to fiscal year end.
• The City's budget presentation will be directed at displaying the City's services plan in a
Council/constituent friendly format.
• No long term debt will be incurred without identification of a revenue source to repay the debt.
Long term debt will be incurred for capital purposes only.
• The City will strive to maintain equipment replacement funds in an amount necessary to
replace the equipment at the end of its useful life. Life cycle assumptions and required
contributions will be reviewed annually as part of the budget process. New operations in
difficult economic times may make it difficult to fund this principle in some years.
• The City will pursue an ending general fund balance at a level of no less than 50% of recurring
expenditures. This figure is based upon an evaluation of both cash flow and operating needs.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING AND BUDGETING
Accounting
Accounting records for the City are maintained in accordance with methods prescribed by the
State Auditor under the authority of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW), Chapter 43.09.20,
and in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles as set forth by the Governmental
Accounting Standards Board.
Basis of Presentation - Fund Accounting
The accounts of the City of Spokane Valley are organized on the basis of funds, each of which is
considered a separate accounting entity. Each fund is accounted for with a separate set of
double-entry accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues and expenditures
or expenses, as appropriate. The City's resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual
funds depending on their intended purpose. The following are the fund types used by the City of
Spokane Valley:
Governmental Fund Types
Governmental funds are used to account for activities typically associated with state and local
government operations. All governmental fund types are accounted for on a spending or"financial
flows" measurement focus, which means that typically only current assets and current liabilities
are included on related balance sheets. The operating statements of governmental funds
measure changes in financial position, rather than net income. They present increases (revenues
and other financing sources)and decreases(expenditures and other financing uses) in net current
assets. There are four governmental fund types used by the City of Spokane Valley:
13
1. General Fund
This fund is the primary fund of the City of Spokane Valley. It accounts for all financial
resources except those required or elected to be accounted for in another fund.
2. Special Revenue Funds
These funds account for revenues that are legally restricted or designated to finance particular
activities of the City of Spokane Valley. Special Revenue funds include:
• #101 — Street Fund
• #103 — Paths & Trails Fund
• #104 — Hotel / Motel Tax—Tourism Facilities Fund
• #105 — Hotel / Motel Tax Fund
• #106 — Solid Waste Fund
• #107 — PEG Fund
• #120 — CenterPlace Operating Reserve Fund
• #121 — Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund
• #122 —Winter Weather Reserve Fund
3. Debt Service Funds
These funds account for financial resources which are designated for the retirement of debt.
Debt Service Funds are comprised of the #204 — LTGO Debt Service Fund.
4. Capital Proiect Funds
These funds account for financial resources, which are designated for the acquisition or
construction of general government capital projects. Capital Project Funds include:
• #301 — REET 1 Capital Projects Fund
• #302 — REET 2 Capital Projects Fund
• #303 — Streets Capital Projects Fund
• #309 — Parks Capital Projects Fund
• #310 — Civic Facilities Capital Projects Fund
• #311 — Pavement Preservation Fund
• #312 — Capital Reserve Fund
• #313 — City Hall Construction Fund
• #314 — Railroad Grade Separation Projects Fund
Proprietary Fund Types
A second type of fund classification is the Proprietary Funds that are used to account for
activities similar to those found in the private sector where the intent of the governing body is
to finance the full cost of providing services based on the commercial model which uses a
flow of economic resources approach. Under this approach, the operating statements for the
proprietary funds focus on a measurement of net income (revenues and expenses) and both
current and non-current assets and liabilities are reported on related balance sheets. Their
reported fund equity (total net assets) is segregated into restricted, unrestricted and invested
in capital assets classifications. As described below, there are two generic fund types in this
category:
14
1. Enterprise Funds
These funds account for operations that provide goods or services to the general public
and are supported primarily by user charges. This type of fund includes:
• #402 — Stormwater Management Fund
• #403 —Aquifer Protection Area Fund
2. Internal Service Funds
These funds account for operations that provide goods or services to other departments
or funds of the City. This type of fund includes:
• #501 — Equipment Rental and Replacement Fund
• #502 — Risk Management Fund
Basis of Accounting
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures are recognized, recorded in
the accounting system and ultimately reported in the financial statements.
• Modified Accrual Basis of Accounting is used for all governmental funds. Modified accrual
recognizes revenues when they become both measurable and available to finance
expenditures of the current period.
• Accrual Basis of Accounting is used for enterprise and internal service funds. Under this
system revenues and expenses are recognized in the period incurred rather than when
cash is either received or disbursed.
Budgets and Budgetary Accounting
Annual appropriation budgets are adopted for all funds with Governmental Funds utilizing a
modified cash basis of accounting for budget purposes and Proprietary Funds utilizing a
working capital approach.
Budgets are adopted at the fund level that constitutes the legal authority for expenditures, and
annual appropriations for all funds lapse at the end of the fiscal period.
EXPLANATION OF MAJOR REVENUE SOURCES
General Fund #001
• Property Tax
Property taxes play an essential role in the finances of the municipal budget. State law limits
the City to a $3.60 levy per $1,000 assessed valuation, deducting from there the levy of up to
$1.50 by the Spokane County Fire Districts #1 and #8, along with deducting up to $0.50 for
the Library District, which leaves the City with the authority to levy up to $1.60 for its own
purposes. The levy amount must be established by ordinance by November 30th prior to the
levy year.
• Retail Sales and Use Tax
The sales tax rate for retail sales transacted within the boundaries of the City of Spokane
Valley is 8.8%. The tax that is paid by a purchaser at the point of sale is remitted by the
vendor to the Washington Department of Revenue who then remits the taxes back to the
various agencies that have imposed the tax. The allocation of the 8.8% tax rate to the
agencies is as follows:
15
State of Washington 6.50%
City of Spokane Valley 0.85%
Spokane County 0.15%
Criminal Justice 0.10%
Spokane Public Facilities District 0.10% *
Public Safety 0.10% * - 2.30% local tax
Juvenile Jail 0.10% *
Mental Health 0.10% *
Law Enforcement Communications 0.10% *
Spokane Transit Authority 0.70% *
8.80%
*Indicates voter approved sales taxes.
• Criminal Justice Sales Tax
Local Sales Tax for Criminal Justice funding is to be used solely for criminal justice purposes,
such as the City's law enforcement contract. This tax is authorized at 1/10 of 1% of retail
sales transacted in the County. Of the total amount collected, the State distributes 10% of the
receipts to Spokane County, with the remainder allocated on a per capita basis to the County
and cities within the County.
• Public Safety Sales Tax
Beginning in 2005, an additional 0.1% voter approved increase in sales tax was devoted to
public safety purposes. This 0.1% was approved by the voters again in August 2009. Of the
total amount collected, the State distributes 60% of the receipts to Spokane County, with the
remainder allocated on a per capita basis to the cities within the County.
• Gambling Tax
Gambling tax revenues must be spent primarily on law enforcement purposes pertaining to
gambling. Funds remaining after necessary expenditures for such enforcement purposes
may be used for any general government purpose. Gambling taxes are to be paid quarterly
to the City, no later than the last day of January, April, July and October. The City imposes a
tax on the following forms of gambling at the following rates: Bingo (5% gross, less prizes);
Raffles (5% gross, less prizes); Punchboards and Pull tabs (5% gross, less prizes);
Amusement Games (2% gross, less prizes); Card playing (6% gross).
• Leasehold Excise Tax
Taxes on property owned by state or local governments and leased to private parties (City's
share).
• Franchise Fees
Cable TV is the only franchise fee levied in the City at a rate of 5% of gross revenues. This
is a fee levied on private utilities for the right to use city streets, alleys, and other public
properties.
16
• State-Shared Revenues
State-shared revenues are received from liquor sales, marijuana revenues, and motor vehicle
excise taxes. These taxes are collected by the State of Washington and shared with local
governments based on population. State-shared revenues are distributed on either a monthly
or quarterly basis, although not all quarterly revenues are distributed in the same month of the
quarter. The 2017 population figure used in the 2018 Budget is 94,890 as reported by the
Office of Financial Management for Washington State on April 1, 2017. This figure is
important when determining distribution of State shared revenues on a per capita basis.
• Fines and Forfeitures / Public Safety
Fines and penalties are collected as a result of Municipal Court rulings, false alarm fees, and
other miscellaneous rule infractions. All court fines and penalties are shared with the State,
with the City, on average, retaining less than 50% of the amount collected.
• Community Development
Community Development revenues are largely composed of fees for building permits, plan
reviews, and right-of-way permits.
• Recreation Program Fees
The Parks and Recreation Department charges fees for selected recreation programs. These
fees offset direct costs related to providing the program.
• CenterPlace Fees
The Parks and Recreation Department charges fees for use of CenterPlace. Uses include
regional meetings, weddings, receptions and banquets. Rental rooms include classrooms,
the great room and dining rooms.
• Investment Interest
The City earns investment interest on sales tax money held by the State of Washington prior
to the distribution of the taxes to the City, as well as on City initiated investments.
Street Fund #101
• Motor Vehicle Fuel Excise Tax (gas tax)
The State of Washington collects a $0.494 per gallon motor vehicle fuel tax at the pump. Of
this amount, the State remits a portion of the tax back to cities on a per capita basis. For 2017
the Municipal Research and Services Center estimates the distribution back to cities will be
$21.76 per person. Based upon a City of Spokane Valley population of 94,890 (per the
Washington State Office of Financial Management on April 1, 2017) we anticipate the City will
collect$2,061,100 in 2018. RCW 47.30.050 specifies that 0.42% of this tax must be expended
for paths and trails activities and based upon the 2018 revenue estimate this computes to
$8,700. The balance of$2,052,400 will be credited to Fund #101 for street maintenance and
operations.
17
• Telephone Utility Tax
The City of Spokane Valley levied a 6% telephone utility tax via Ordinance #08-014 with
collections beginning in 2009. Telephone companies providing this service pay the tax to the
City monthly. Telephone tax has been estimated at $1.9 million for 2018.
Paths & Trails Fund #103
Cities are required to spend 0.42%of the motor vehicle fuel tax receipts on paths and trails (please
see the explanation for Street Fund #101) which we anticipate will be $8,700 in 2018. Because
the amount collected in any given year is relatively small, it is typical to accumulate State
distributions for several years until adequate dollars are available for a project.
Hotel / Motel Tax— Tourism Facilities Fund #104
The City imposes a 1.3% tax under RCW 67.28.181 on all charges made for the furnishing of
lodging at hotels, motels, and similar establishments (including bed and breakfasts and RV parks)
for a continuous period of less than one month. The revenues generated by this tax may only be
used for capital expenditures for acquiring, constructing, making improvements to or other related
capital expenditures for large sporting venues, or venues for tourism-related facilities. This tax is
estimated to generate $377,000 in 2018.
Hotel / Motel Tax Fund #105
The City imposes a 2% tax under RCW 67.28.180 on all charges made for the furnishing of
lodging at hotels, motels, and similar establishments (including bed and breakfasts and RV parks)
for a continuous period of less than one month. The tax is taken as a credit against the 6.5%
state sales tax, so that the total tax that a patron pays in retail sales tax and hotel/motel tax
combined is equal to the retail sales tax in the jurisdiction. The revenues generated by this tax
may be used solely for paying for tourism promotion and for the acquisition and/or operation of
tourism-related facilities. This tax is estimated to generate $580,000 in 2018.
Solid Waste Fund #106
Under the City's contract for solid waste transfer, transport and disposal services with Sunshine
Recyclers, Inc., Sunshine pays an annual contract administrative fee of$125,000 to the City. Also,
under the City's contract for solid waste collection services with Waste Management of
Washington, Inc., Waste Management pays an administrative fee of 1% of gross receipts. These
fees are used by the City to offset contract administrative costs and solid waste management
within the City, including solid waste public educational efforts.
PEG Fund #107
Under the City's cable franchise, the franchise grantee remits to the City in a capital contribution
in support of Public Education Government (PEG) capital requirements an amount equal to $0.35
per subscriber per month to be paid to the City on a quarterly basis for the life of the franchise.
Capital contributions collected under this agreement are allocated to PEG capital uses
exclusively. PEG capital uses include, in part, the set-up of equipment in the City Council
Chambers that allows Spokane Valley to broadcast Council meetings both live and through
subsequent reviews via digital recordings available on the City's website.
18
LTGO Debt Service Fund #204
This fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources for, and the payment of limited tax
general obligation (LTGO) bonds also referred to as councilmanic or non-voted bonds. When
LTGO bonds are issued the City irrevocably pledges the full faith, credit and resources necessary
to make timely payments of principal and interest, within constitutional and statutory limitations
pertaining to non-voted general obligations.
In 2003 the City issued $9,430,000 in limited tax general obligation (LTGO) bonds the proceeds
of which were used to finance both the construction of CenterPlace and road and street
improvements surrounding the facility. In 2014 the City refunded the LTGO bonds in order to take
advantage of lower interest rates which resulted in a reduction in subsequent annual bond
repayment (much like refinancing a home mortgage). At the completion of the bond refunding
there remained $7,035,000 of LTGO bonds. Of this total:
• $5,650,000 remained on the original debt used towards the construction of CenterPlace.
These bonds will be paid off in annual installments over the 20-year period ending December
1, 2033. Annual debt service payments on these bonds are provided by the Spokane Public
Facilities District. At January 1, 2018, the outstanding balance on this portion of the bond
issue will be $4,875,000.
• $1,385,000 remained on the original debt used towards the road and street improvements.
These bonds will be paid off in annual installments over the 10-year period ending December
1, 2023. Annual debt service payments on these bonds are provided by equal distributions
from the 1St and 2nd quarter percent real estate excise tax. At January 1, 2018, the outstanding
balance on this portion of the bond issue will be $865,000.
In 2016 the City issued $7,275,000 in LTGO bonds, the proceeds of which were used to finance
the construction of a new City Hall building along with $6.3 million of City cash that has been set
aside for this purpose. These bonds will be paid off in annual installments over the 30-year period
ending December 1, 2045. Annual debt service payments on these bonds are provided by
transfers in from the General Fund. At January 1, 2018, the outstanding balance on the bond
issue will be $7,050,000.
REET 1 Capital Projects Fund #301
Under Washington State Law, RCW 82.46.010, the City is allowed to impose an excise tax on
each sale of real property at the rate of one-quarter of one percent of the selling price. The
revenue generated is used for financing capital projects as specified in the capital facilities plan
under the Growth Management Act.
REET 2 Capital Projects Fund #302
Under Washington State Law, RCW 82.46.010, the City is allowed to impose an additional excise
tax on each sale of real property at the rate of one-quarter of one percent of the selling price. The
revenue generated is used for financing public works capital projects as specified in the capital
facilities plan under the Growth Management Act.
Stormwater Management Fund #402
A stormwater fee is imposed upon every developed parcel within the City, which is an annual
charge of$21 for each single family unit and $21 per 3,160 square feet of impervious surface for
all other properties. These charges are uniform for the same class of customers and service
facilities. These fees are estimated to generate $1,870,000 in 2018.
19
Aquifer Protection Area (APA) Fund #403
These are voter approved fees, the proceeds of which are applied to aquifer protection related
capital construction projects. Fees are collected by Spokane County and remitted to the City
twice each year. These fees are estimated to generate $460,000 in 2018. Fees include:
• An annual fee of $15 per household for the withdrawal of water from properties within the
APA.
• An annual fee of$15 per household for on-site sewage disposal by properties within the APA.
• For commercial properties an annual fee ranging from $15 to $960 depending upon water
meter size.
Interfund Transfers
Many funds receive a portion of their revenues from other funds in the form of an interfund
transfer. These transfers typically represent payments for either services rendered by one fund
for another or a concentration of revenues for a specific project or purpose. The following
interfund transfers are planned for 2018:

SIGNIFICANT ASSUMPTIONS IN THE 2018 BUDGET
Budget Summary for All Funds
• Based upon funding levels anticipated in the 2018 budget, City staff will strive to maintain
adequate levels of service.
• Appropriations for all City Funds will total $77.4 million including $21.5 million in capital
expenditures, comprised in-part of:
o $11.2 million in Fund #303 Street Capital Projects.

• To partially offset the $21.5 million in capital costs, we anticipate $15.2 million in grant
revenues which results in 70.41% of capital expenditures being covered with State and
Federal money.
• Budgets will be adopted across 24 separate funds.
21
• The full time equivalent of employee (FTE) count will be 89.25 employees compared to 88.4
in the prior year as a result the reduction of 0.65 with the City's reorganization in April 2017,
an increase of 0.50 for the addition of a part-time attorney position, and an increase of 1 due
to one limited term position being converted to regular full time in the Capital Projects Fund
#303.
o See the City Manager's budget message for further details on FTE count for the City.
• The 2018 Budget reflects the fourth consecutive year the City will set aside City monies in
an amount equivalent to 6% of General Fund recurring expenditures for pavement
preservation in Fund #311 — Pavement Preservation. This 6% equals $2,400,700.
• Positions and salary ranges are based on the City's compensation and classification plan.
• Payroll tax and benefit amounts are based on staff benefit plans.
• Contract costs for public safety, park maintenance, aquatics and street maintenance are
based on estimates by City staff.
• The City is setting money aside in Fund #501 — Equipment Rental and Replacement for the

at CenterPlace.
2018 General Fund Revenues
• Total recurring 2018 revenues are estimated at $43,007,600 as compared to $41,462,500 in
2017. This is an increase of$1,545,100 or 3.73%.
• The two largest sources of revenue continue to be Sales Tax and Property Tax which are
collectively estimated to account for 82.27% of 2018 General Fund recurring revenues.
• The 2018 general sales tax estimate (excluding criminal justice and public safety sales
taxes) is reflective of 2017 receipts to date and are currently estimated at $20.9 million
which reflects an increase of$1,029,800 or 5.19% over the 2017 estimate.
• The Property Tax levy does not include the potential annual increase allowed by Initiative
#747 which was approved by the voters in November 2001 and the subsequent action by
the State Legislature in November 2007.
o The 2018 levy is estimated at $11,796,100.
o The levy assumes we start with the 2017 levy of$11,646,122, forgo the potential annual
increase allowed by State law, and finally add taxes related to new construction which
we estimate to be $150,000.
• Franchise fees and business registrations are primarily based on projected receipts in 2017.
• State shared revenues are based upon a combination of historical collections including 2017
collections through July, and per capita distribution figures reported by the Municipal

preservation equals $2,400,700 and is computed by multiplying total recurring expenditures

Fund: 103 Paths&Trails Fund Spokane Valley
2018 Budget
The State of Washington collects a$0.494 per gallon motor vehicle fuel tax at the pump.Of this amount,the State remits
a portion of the tax back to cities on a per capita basis. For 2018 the Municipal Research and Services Center estimates the
distribution back to cities will be$21.72 per person. Based upon a City of Spokane Valley population of 94,890(per the
Washington State Office of Financial Management on April 1,2017)we anticipate the City will collect$2,061,100 in 2011.
RCW 47.030.050 specifies that 0.42%of this tax must be expended for the construction of paths and trails and based upon
the 2018 revenue estimate this computes to$8,700. The balance or$2,052,400 will be credited to Fund#101 for Street
maintenance and operations.
The portion of the motor vehicle tax allocated to the Paths and Trails Fund is by State Law restricted for the construction
and/or improvement of paths and trails within the City. Because the cost of such projects is typically much greater
than the funds generated in a single year,we typically leave the fund balance untouched until an adequate fund balance
is available. The City transferred$50,000 in 2014 and$9,300 in 2016 to the Parks Capital Projects Fund#309 to be applied
towards the Appleway Trail Project from University to Pines.

Fund:106 Solid Waste Fund Spokane Valley
2018 Budget
In 2003,the City of Spokane Valley entered into an interlocal agreement with the City of Spokane and Spokane County
to join the existing Spokane Regional Solid Waste Management System for a period of eight years. In 2011,that
agreement was extended through November 16,2014.
Committed to ensuring Spokane Valley citizens are provided with solid waste services that are affordable,sustainable,
and environmentally responsible,in June 2014 the City of Spokane Valley opted to contract for solid waste transfer,
transport and disposal services with Sunshine Recyclers, Inc.Services provided under the contract were effective
November 17,2014,and continue for a period of ten years with options for two three-year extensions. Terms of the
contract require Sunshine to pay the City an annual administrative fee of$125,000 that will be used by the City to offset
contract administrative costs and solid waste management within the city,including solid waste public educational
efforts. The contract also provides that a road maintenance fee will be paid by Sunshine at the rate of$1 per ton for
each ton in excess of 45,500 tons in a single contract year. Payments will be made to the City by March 31 of the year
following the calendar year being measured. During 2017,the City received a payment in the amount of$71,112,which
was receipted in the Street Fund#101 to offset road maintenance costs.
In June 2017,the City entered a contract with Waste Management for the collection of garbage,recyclables,and
compostables for the period of April 1,2018 through March 31,2028 with the option of two additional two-year extensions.
Terms of the contract require Waste Management to pay the City a one-time fee of$47,500 upon contract execution to
reimburse the City for the costs of procuring the contract.Waste Management is also required to pay the City an
monthly administrative fee of 1%of gross receipts,which is estimated to be approximately$100,000 in 2018.
During the years of 2013 and 2014,the General Fund#001 funded various studies and fees related to the solid waste
program and transferred$60,000 to the Solid Waste Fund#106 for the purpose of providing information materials
and marketing necessary to inform residents and businesses of the change in solid waste transfer,transport and
disposal.The total amount paid out of the General Fund for these expenditures was$202,121. Beginning in 2015 the
Solid Waste Fund will reimburse the General Fund for these costs over a 5-year period,which equates to a
payment of annually of$40,425 in the years 2015 through 2019.

Fund:120 CenterPlace Operating Reserve Fund Spokane Valley
2018 Budget
The CenterPlace Operating Reserve Fund was established as a result of a covenant related to the issuance of limited
tax general obligation bonds initially issued in 2003 and refunded in 2014. The bonds were issued for the purpose of
constructing the CenterPlace facility. As a part of the bond issuance the City agreed to establish a$300,000 operating
reserve account that could be used to make debt service payments on the bonds and/or pay for operating expenses of
CenterPlace. If at any time the City were to draw on these reserves it would have to prepare and follow a plan for
reinstatement of those funds drawn. This reserve is required to be in place for the life of the bonds which run through
December 1,2033.

Fund:121 Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund Spokane Valley
2018 Budget
The City has committed to maintaining an ending fund balance in the General Fund of at least 50%of recurring expenditures
which is equivalent to 6-months of operations. The Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund serves as an emergency source
of temporary financing to the General Fund in the event a downturn in the local economy resulted in a reduction of revenues
that would otherwise compromise either the General Fund's minimum 50%reserve balance or historical levels of service.
If an event such as a downturn in the economy resulted in the General Fund reserves dropping below 50%of recurring
expenditures,then the Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund could be drawn against to maintain the fund balance
minimum. In no event would the Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund be reduced to less than 60%of the current
$5.5 million balance or$3.29 million. During 2017,this reserve balance was capped at approximately$5.5 million and any
additional interest earned was accumulated in the General Fund.This represents a Fiscal Policy of the City that is also stated
in the City Manager's 2018 Budget Message located near the front of this budget document.

Fund: 122 Winter Weather Reserve Fund Spokane Valley
2018 Budget
The Winter Weather Reserve Fund was established through Ordinance No.05-018 to provide an emergency reserve for use
during unusually harsh winters and storms where the Street Fund#101 budget and fund balance are inadequate to
accommodate the amount of related street maintenance,including but not limited to snow plowing,sanding,and deicing,that
may be necessary. In the event the City draws against this fund in any given winter,we will strive to replenish the balance back
to approximately$500,000 through subsequent years'transfers. Due to the uncertainty of when this fund might be drawn
upon we actually budget the same$500,000 in both 2017 and 2018 even though we recognize there exists only$500,000
to address this issue if it should arise.

Fund:204 Limited Tax General Obligation(LTGO)Bond-Debt Service Fund Spokane Valley
2018 Budget
This fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources for,and the payment of limited tax general obligation(LTGO)
bonds also referred to as councilmanic or non-voted bonds. When LTGO bonds are issued the City irrevocably pledges
the full faith,credit and resources necessary to make timely payments of principal and interest,within constitutional and
statutory limitations pertaining to non-voted general obligations.
In 2003 the City issued$9,430,000 in LTGO bonds,the proceeds of which were used to finance both the construction of
CenterPlace and road and street improvements surrounding the facility. In 2014 the City refunded the LTGO bonds in order
to take advantage of lower interest rates which resulted in a reduction in subsequent annual bond payments(much like
refinancing a home mortgage). At the completion of the bond refunding there remained$7,035,000 of LTGO bonds. Of this
total:
• $5,650,000 remained on the original debt used towards the construction of CenterPlace. These bonds will be paid
off in annual installments over the 20-year period ending December 1,2033. Annual debt service payments on these
bonds are provided by the Spokane Public Facilities District. At January 1,2018,the outstanding balance on this
portion of the bond issue will be$4,875,000.
• $1,385,000 remained on the original debt used towards the road and street improvements. These bonds will be paid
off in annual installments over the 10-year period ending December 1,2023. Annual debt service payments on these
bonds are provided by equal distributions from the 1st and 2nd quarter percent real estate excise tax(Funds#301
and#302). At January 1,2018,the outstanding balance on this portion of the bond issue will be$865,000.
In 2016 the City issued$7,275,000 in LTGO bonds,the proceeds of which will be used to finance the construction of a new
City Hall building along with$6.3 million of City cash that has been set aside for this purpose.These bonds will be paid off
in annual installments over the 30-year period ending December 1,2045.Annual debt service payments on these bonds are
provided by transfers in from the General Fund.At January 1,2018,the outstanding balance on the bond issue will be
$7,050,000.

Fund:310 Civic Facility Capital Projects Fund Spokane Valley
2018 Budget
The Civic Building Capital Projects Fund was initially set-up to accumulate resources to ultimately acquire or construct a
City Hall building. The initial sources of revenue to set-up the fund reserves were transfers from the General Fund during
2005 through 2007,and as recently as December 31,2009,this fund had a fund balance of$5,828,600. During 2010 and
2011 the City determined that street repairs and reconstruction represented a more immediate City need and opted to
expend nearly$2,000,000 of the fund balance for these projects. The projects themselves were part of a septic tank
elimination program(STEP)initiated by Spokane County that resulted in the installation of sewer lines down many City
streets. At that time the City decided to completely reconstruct the effected streets rather than patch them.
In 2012 the City used this fund to finance a variety street related capital projects as well as the$2.5 million acquisition
of an 8.4 acre parcel of land on Sprague Avenue that is adjacent to Balfour Park. Partially offsetting the cost of the land
acquisition was the subsequent sale of 2.82 acres of this parcel to the Spokane County Library District who had planned to
construct a library building consisting of no less than 30,000 square feet. In order for the Library District to actually construct
a new building on this site they first had to have a successful voted bond issue to provide the necessary financing. In the
event the Library District is unable to pass a bond by October 2017, they may sell the 2.82 acres parcel back to the City for
the original purchase price of$839,285.
In 2015 the General Fund began to make two annual transfers to this fund that were each related to the eventual
construction of a new City Hall facility.These transfers ended after 2016:
• The first transfer in the amount of$72,500,when added to the City's$434,600 annual lease payment for space in its
current space totals$507,100 which was the amount we anticipated our annual bond repayment would be if we were
to issue approximately$8,000,000 of limited tax general obligation bonds with a 2%issue cost over 30-years at 4.50%.
• The second transfer was our estimate of the annual operating costs of a City Hall facility including utilities,janitorial,
grounds maintenance and snow removal,and operating and maintenance supplies.
The purpose behind making these transfers beginning in 2015 was to"create"this appropriation capacity within the General
Fund. These amounts were transferred out to the General Fund in 2016 and 2017 in order to cover lease payments for the
prior City Hall location in years in which the City had both a lease payment and a bond payment for the new City Hall building.

Fund:311 Pavement Preservation Fund Spokane Valley
2018 Budget
This fund was created during the 2011 Budget development process for the purpose of setting money aside for
yet to be determined street capital improvement projects. Since inception,the pavement preservation program has
been funded through a series of transfers from other City funds as well as grant proceeds. Below is a table summarizing
the funding sources for Fund#311,including actuals for 2011 through 2016 and budgeted amounts for 2017 and 2018:

Beginning in 2013,the City committed to finance pavement preservation at a level equivalent to 6%of General Fund
recurring expenditures,which has continued from that year through the 2018 budget development. Because this is a
Capital Project Fund whose sole purpose is to provide for Pavement Preservation projects,any money not expended
in a given year will remain in the fund and will be available for re-appropriation in subsequent years.
The fund balance of Fund#123 was exhausted with the 2016 transfer of$559,808 as a consequence of following this funding
strategy. In order to maintain the City's practice of setting aside funds for pavement preservation in an amount equivalent to
6%of General Fund recurring expenditures,the City will have to rely more heavily on the REET funds going forward.We have
determined that the 2018 funding level of$2,400,700 is sustainable through 2022 assuming a General Fund contribution of
$962,700,a Street Fund contribution of$67,342,and a collective contribution of$1,370,658 from the REET 1 Capital Projects
Fund#301 and the REET 2 Capital Projects Fund#302.The City will take advantage of grant programs directed at pavement
preservation as they become available.

Fund:314 Railroad Grade Separation Projects Fund Spokane Valley
2018 Budget
This fund was created to account for the design and construction costs of various railroad grade separation projects that
are included in the Bridging the Valley concept. Due to the anticipated size,scope,and duration of these projects,managing
them in a separate fund allows for the necessary monitoring without being obscured by the variety and quantity of the
other projects in the Street Capital Projects Fund#303 as well as keeping these projects from skewing the average volume
of activity in Fund#303. Revenues for this fund consist of grant proceeds and transfers in from other City funds,such as
the General Fund#001,the REET 1 Capital Project Fund#301 and the Capital Reserve Fund#312. Expenditures in the
years of 2017 and 2018 are related to design costs for the Pines Road Underpass project and the Barker Road Overpass
project.

Fund:403 Aquifer Protection Area Fund Spokane Valley
2018 Budget
In 1985 voters of Spokane County approved a ballot proposition to create the Spokane Aquifer Protection Area(APA)
as well as corresponding aquifer protection area fees with both sunsetting December 31,2005. Boundaries of the
APA included portions of unincorporated areas(including what is now Spokane Valley)and the cities of Liberty Lake,
Millwood and Spokane. In 2004 the City of Spokane Valley approved a resolution authorizing the inclusion of its municipal
boundaries within the APA. The APA program was subsequently reauthorized through 2025 with voter approval.
All fees are collected by Spokane County and include:
• An annual fee of$15 per household for the withdrawal of water from properties within the APA.
• An annual fee of$15 per household for on-site sewage disposal within the APA.
• For commercial properties an annual fee ranging from$15 to$960 depending upon water meter size.
In 2004 the City of Spokane Valley(City)entered into an interlocal agreement with Spokane County(County)that
authorized the County to collect and retain APA fees through 2010 for a variety of projects including:
• up to$100,000 annually through 2010 to the Spokane Regional Health District to provide for data base
management related to monitoring of septic tanks and their potential impact on water quality in the Spokane
Valley Rathdrum Prairie Aquifer.
• a septic tank elimination program(STEP)designed to replace septic tanks with sanitary sewer systems.
In the 2004 interlocal agreement the City and County also agreed that for the years 2011 through 2025 the APA fees
remaining after the payment of reasonable administration and billing fees incurred by the County would be distributed
annually between the County,City and City of Spokane on a proportional basis relative to the amount generated in
unincorporated areas,the City and City of Spokane.
The fees collected on the City's behalf by Spokane County are expended entirely on stormwater related projects that are
designed to protect the aquifer. These fees plus grant monies received from a number of granting agencies finance a
variety of capital projects.

Fund:501 Equipment Rental&Replacement Fund Spokane Valley
2018 Budget
The Equipment Rental&Replacement Fund(ER&R)is an Internal Service Fund that is designed to provide the funds
necessary to purchase new vehicles and equipment at predetermined life cycles. This fund operates by charging each City
department a monthly rental rate for the vehicles they use. The fee is based upon the estimated useful life of the vehicle
and its replacement cost. The theory behind this program is that it allows City departments to budget vehicle replacement
costs as a reoccurring expense over an extended period of time rather than as an intermittent capital expense that may be
difficult to afford in any single year. In the event a City department requires an additional vehicle that actually adds to the
fleet rather than simply replaces an existing vehicle,then that department must budget for the initial purchase price and
transfer the necessary funds to the ER&R Fund to make the acquisition. In subsequent years the department will then
begin paying a replacement fee spread out over the estimated useful life of the new vehicle.
Beginning in 2017 a CenterPlace Kitchen Reserve was established through a transfer in from the General Fund in the
amount of$36,600 per year for 5 years to build a total reserve of$183,000,which is the estimated replacement cost of the
significant kitchen appliances and equipment at CenterPlace.
Snow Plow Replacement Program
The snow plow fleet currently consists of nine plow trucks.Six of the trucks are equipped with sanders and three of the
trucks are equipped with 1,000-gallon tanks for placement of liquid deicer.Over the past five years the City has
continued to improve the snow removal operations and has updated the snow plan accordingly.These improvements in
snow operations have dictated that operating nine plows is a very efficient way to remove snow from the arterial and hillside
roadways.Operating nine plows allows the performance of a full city arterial and designated hillsides plow in approximately
12 hours. In the future new plows will be purchased to replace the aging fleet as noted below and older plows will serve
as backups and eventually be retired from the fleet beginning in 2022.The recommended snow plow fleet consists of eleven
plows with two serving as backup plows.The two backup plows ensure that arterial roadways and hillside priority roadways
can be cleared of snow per the snow plan.Having backup plows provides the City with additional plows that can be deployed
in case of a mechanical breakdown or an accident during a winter storm event.
The 2016 Budget included the purchase of a tandem axle plow truck with a sander for approximately$225,000. Future
replacements will be single axle plows with an estimated cost of$200,000 per plow.
