ROLL CALL: City Clerk Bainbridge called the roll; all Councilmembers were present.
Overview of Discussion Topics — Mark Calhoun
City Manager Calhoun said today's meeting will address the City's priorities of public safety, pavement
preservation, transportation and infrastructure, and economic development; he said those priorities will be
tied to our dealings with finance and the budget, as well as homelessness and other topics; and he explained
that some topics will include brief presentations to generate discussion and/or communicate with Council
so we can further address the items in the future. Mr. Calhoun noted that there are no action items on today's
agenda, but for item 8 below, we will be seeking consensus from Council to start the process to apply for
the grants. Mr. Calhoun said the meeting is scheduled to end about 2:30 p.m.
1. General Fund, Fund Balance — Chelsie Taylor, Mark Calhoun
It was noted that this item is a good reminder of how we arrive at the projected fund balance reserve, which
is calculated by examining our cash flow and which amount is equated to approximately six months of
budget expenditures. As shown in the Request for Council Action form, Director Taylor explained that the
term 'fund balance' is an accounting concept that measures the difference between total assets and total
liabilities; and that the primary objective of a fund balance policy is to maintain adequate resources to cope
with cash flow needs and contingencies; she noted the anticipated ending fund balance at the end of 2020
to be about $34 million, which she said represents about 79.29% of general fund recurring expenditures.
Director Taylor further explained the cash flow needs, as shown on page 2, and said a big piece of the
puzzle is the property tax, which is collected twice a year; she noted the remittances from the State of
Washington and the lag time between when the State collects the various taxes and when they are remitted
to the City. The cash deficit caused by revenue remittance delay, Ms. Taylor explained as shown on page 3
of the memo with a figure of $8,677,533, is needed just to meet the minimum cash flow. Director Taylor
also went over the capital projects reserve; the computation of combining minimum fund balance needed
to meet cash flow requirement, and that when the fund balance exceeds 50%, the portion over 50% is
transferred into Capital Reserve Fund 312, and she mentioned that we have transferred approximately $27.8

million into that fund since 2013. Director Taylor also went over the summary shown on the bottom of
page 5 of her memo. City Manager Calhoun added that the reason we wait so long is because we don't
know what will happen with the economy so we don't turn that money into capital projects immediately,
but it will be carried forward in a future budget amendment; and said that handling our finances the way
we do, plus carrying exceptionally low debt and having reserves, all helps us to keep that great bond rating.
2. Potential and Pending Projects — Chelsie Taylor, Mark Calhoun
It was noted that this was last discussed with Council August 20, 2019; Ms. Taylor went over the figures
on the spreadsheet, including the projects being tracked; said she works regularly with engineering to
change the figures as more information becomes available; she also noted the future construction and the
unfunded projects, as well as the projects included in the box on the far left of that page. City Manager
Calhoun said this will be discussed again at the June 16 budget workshop, including the $5 million transfer
and that will be discussed yet again with Council in August; it was also noted that unless the project is
already underway, Council could change priorities.
3. Budget Calendar — Chelsie Taylor, Mark Calhoun
Finance Director Taylor said this is a working calendar of items associated with the budget. Councilmember
Woodard mentioned that August 4 will likely get cancelled since that first Tuesday in August is National
Night Out. Ms. Taylor said the calendar is subject to change and that change can easily be made.
4. Financial Management Software Replacement — Chelsie Taylor
Finance Director Taylor explained that Tyler Technologies supplies updates to our Eden financial
management software, and that in the fall of last year, we were notified that they are no longer providing
substantive updates and as such, staff feel now is the time to begin assessing our options for replacing Eden
with a different financial management software. She explained that staff is in the process of issuing a
Request for Qualifications (RFQ) so that a consultant can be selected to help us select a software vendor.
Ms. Taylor said that the selected consultant would also aid us with contract negotiation. Director Taylor
noted the software selection consultant cost is estimated at $70,000, which would be paid through the City
Manager's contingency in the General Fund. Councilmember Thompson asked about us collaborating with
other cities to buy collectively, and Ms. Taylor explained that our operations are unique in that we are not
a full service city, that is, we do not handle fire, water, and other utilities. Mr. Calhoun added that we would
look at a completely integrated software package to include Parks and Recreation, and our SMART Gov
that the Planning and Building Division uses.
5. Capital Construction Project Topics — Gloria Mantz
5a. Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) Process
Ms. Mantz went through the PowerPoint explaining the requirements and procedures to follow in handling
capital projects; she mentioned the two timelines — one for the state and one for the federal; she explained
the process for the TIP (Transportation Improvement Program) and of obligating federal funds including
what is necessary for the STIP (State TIP) process. Ms. Mantz went over the complicated process for these
projects, the timelines, the regulations and requirements, what must be included in each phase of the project,
including the preliminary engineering, right-of-way phase; public bid opening and award, the execution of
the contract and construction phase. During her explanation of the preliminary engineering, Ms. Mantz was
asked to further explain about the UDBE (Underutilized Disadvantage Business Enterprises) goal. Ms.
Mantz explained that UDBE goals are for federal projects; and there is a whole set of requirements that go
with this and it is very time consuming and she went over some of those requirements, such as complying
with the Buy America Act which restricts the purchase of supplies and applies to federal government
contracts for products used in the U.S. She also mentioned that as of 2019, there is a new federal
requirement called `Prompt Payment Act' which was enacted to make sure bills are paid promptly to subs
and to the disadvantaged business; she said the process can be very daunting, and with all these regulations
and requirements, staff must attend multiple training sessions throughout the year.
At 9:43 a.m., the meeting went into recess; it was resumed at 9:55 a.m.

5b. Property Acquisition (right-of-way) Process
Ms. Mantz went through the PowerPoint giving a program overview of right-of-way acquisitions. She
explained the fundamentals of acquisition including types of property rights, uniform relocation assistance,
just compensation, replacement housing, and how the fair market value is established; she also explained
about relocation assistance and associated regulations for replacement housing and relocation. Ms. Mantz
also briefly explained about the right-of-way process and associated regulations, and gave some examples
of acquisition.
6. Homelessness Update — Morgan Koudelka
Mr. Koudelka stated that for this topic, the easy part was to draft park regulations; he said that each situation
is unique and that the issue can be overwhelming in a short amount of time; he said our approach is also
very cautious as we don't want to get sued, but we need to do something; he explained that there is a balance
of needs between the homeless population going through their various circumstances, and the desire to
serve all residents and keep citizens safe, and keep the city in order. He said staff is still gathering
information and will come back to Council with more information later. He also noted that we try to help
the homeless as best we can, when they want the help. He stated that at the end of his presentation today,
there will be an opportunity for questions and answers and a dialogue of what to expect next.
Bringing attention to the four -page "Approach to Homeless Camping" document included with the packet
materials, Mr. Koudelka went over the three categories of homeless camps. Category 1: Mr. Koudelka said
he and members of the Police Department have talked to some of the people using Balfour Park; and like
many others, the campers state that they have no desire to go to a shelter or go to Spokane Mr. Koudelka
said he had everything lined up last week, we posted a notice at their camps with date and time posted of
when the day camps had to be removed, and referenced our City Code; and that they would be cited if they
remained, and their items would be taken into possession of the City. He noted that the time to be out was
yesterday morning, and they had not moved so we showed up with members of the Police Department and
our Code Enforcement, and told them they must be out within the next 30 minutes or tickets would be
written and property would be seized. He said the `campers' got everything out and Geiger crews picked
up the trash. He explained that other than some lingering effects on the property, Balfour Park is now clear
and families were actually using the park yesterday as it is intended to be used. Mr. Koudelka said he and
others working on this issue realize there are still challenges. He noted there was a couple at the park and
Mr. Koudelka told the couple that the Salvation Army had a studio apartment available, and that they would
need to complete an application for a 90-day term. Mr. Koudelka said realistically, they likely won't take
advantage of that opportunity. He noted the issue is difficult and time consuming, but small steps are being
taken. Although the people are out of the park, he noted some are on the Fire District property, and said he
is working with the Fire District on the situation. Mr. Koudelka also noted that CenterPlace is having
problem with car campers.
Category 2 deals with other City owned property. Mr. Koudelka said we have an outreach team that visits
campers and distributes copies of the camping ordinance and discusses the City's approach. They tell the
campers if they are generating a lot of complaints and are in a very visible location, that creates a lot of
conflicts with citizens and businesses, and if they don't cooperate with outreach services, then the City will
enforce the camping regulations as soon as an alternative shelter bed is made available, and that we would
provide transportation to a shelter if the camper desires; he said the team tries to give them every opportunity
but there are some people who don't want to do anything; and another problem that we sometimes see are
some angry vigilantes coming into City Hall; he said our goal is to work with them and get them off the
streets and into better situations. Mr. Koudelka said we try to make them understand we are not set up to
allow them to camp in various places due to lack of sanitary/restroom facilities, and that we are also aware
of the hepatitis issue. Mr. Koudelka again stated that the team works to help those who want the help, and
for some of the others, the team works to enforce the regulations. He noted that we also realize that if a
person is cited and ends up not showing up for court, that even if a Failure to Appear warrant is issued and
the person is arrested, they would likely not be held in the jail for long as the jail simply has no room. He

said the team also works with the jails and courts to try to avoid a scenario that clogs up the system. Mr.
Koudelka said there are some people out there committing property crimes and having a great negative
impact on our neighborhoods; and said he is working with the Police Department and crime analysts to
determine the impact to surrounding neighbors, which he said helps us prioritize our efforts.
Category 3: private property. Mr. Koudelka said we still have a few vacant properties and some homeless
have been found sleeping in office buildings, which he said usually gets reported quickly and then the
person gets trespassed. Mr. Koudelka said if the incident is reported by the property owner, the Police will
trespass the homeless person but they end up returning to the property or another vacant property. Mr.
Koudelka said he has worked with the Police for directed patrols for repeat offenders as they'll likely
migrate to nearby camps; he noted there are some high profile areas where they need to be removed from
and kept off those properties; then the team can contact the person and have a more effective outreach as
well as a targeted plan on how to approach the issue; and he said if a property owner doesn't want to enforce
the trespass, then we send out Code Enforcement for possible violations of our code. Mr. Koudelka noted
that camping in RVs or cars should also be reported.
Councilmember Higgins mentioned the chronic property west of Wal-Mart, the one with the burnt building,
and said people have been complaining but it appears nothing is being done about the situation. Deputy
City Attorney Lamb said that they are going through the process and that it will ultimately get cleaned up;
he said our no camping regulations only apply to public property, so in this situation, it is best to work with
the property owner and get the people trespassed. Mr. Koudelka added that this has been a lot of work with
various people including code enforcement, law enforcement, and others, and that sometimes the RVs are
used for illegal purposes; he said they are putting a team together of people who have been dealing with
this, and that they are all working off the same information which leads to more effective results. He said
we don't restrict RV parking on streets, and living in an RV is covered in the camping regulations; he noted
it is difficult sometimes when it comes to towing vehicles as an attorney argued it was covered under the
Homestead Act. Councilmember Haley asked how many people Mr. Koudelka has contacted and how many
use the services. He stated that outreach interacted with about 20 camps, but we don't have specific
numbers, but he estimates 20 to 30 people. He also stated that everyone they contacted refused the services,
or said they don't want help; he said some make appointments but don't show up; he noted that people
don't want to leave their belongings to go into Spokane for an appointment and they generally have too
much to take on a bus; said he talks to them personally and again said some people really don't want any
help and just want to be left alone; others tell him they had bad experiences in a shelter, or don't do well in
confined spaces and that they feel safer in the Valley; he said outreach is trying to develop relationships
and gain trust, but that takes time. He noted he plans to bring Council more detailed results after spending
more time with everyone, and stated that doing nothing is obviously not an option. Concerning a new
regional shelter, he said such shelter would be for people who want something different and not for those
who don't want any help; that if no one in Spokane Valley will go to a shelter, then something else needs
to be figured out.
Mr. Koudelka spoke about the difficulties in taking personal property into possession, which includes
determining what must be stored and what can be disposed of; said we might want to avoid taking their
items and suggested getting them a storage unit at our expense for 60 days, and after that, it would be up to
the individual on whether to keep their items in storage. He said if the person is at the scene, we get them
to sign off on the form and go through it showing what we are throwing away and what we are not; and it
shows them how they can contact us and how to retrieve their items; said we always run the risk there was
something we didn't log but in any case, we get them to sign if they are available. He also spoke of a
homeless management database. Deputy City Attorney Lamb said we try to outline a process and document
everything in case we get challenged. Mr. Koudelka then went over the `steps taken' and the 'next steps'
and he mentioned the need for new signage about no camping.
Councilmember Thompson said she feels we need to educate the entire community about what we are doing
as there is a sense that Spokane is the only one working on this, including the only one investing money.

Mr. Koudelka agreed and said he is in steady contact with the City of Spokane and as they are working to
move these issues forward, we are participating as well, for example, in the Continuum of Care; said he has
personally talked to many citizens to explain our approach as well as our challenges and most people are
very understanding and appreciate what we are doing, and he mentioned that some people thought we were,
and are doing nothing. Mr. Calhoun noted that this is a large effort combining the talents of not only Mr.
Koudelka, but also the City Attorney's office, code enforcement, our Building Official, Police Officers, the
Crisis Co -Response Team, the Fire Department, our Street Superintendent, and members from Parks &
Recreation; he said it is a phenomenal team effort and this will evolve as we learn more; said there has
already been a great deal of staff time which we are absorbing in our existing budget, and that we will incur
future expenses such as storage units, and are working to determine how this will impact us and the general
fund budget. Mayor Wick mentioned the Continuum of Care's five-year plan on ending homelessness, and
that copies of the plan will be placed on the counter for those interested.
The meeting recessed for lunch at 11:28 a.m., and reconvened at 12:02 p.m.
7. Public Safety Contracts — Morgan Koudelka
Prosecutor Services: Mr. Calhoun noted that public safety, one of the City's priorities, includes $26 million
or about 62% of our budget; and today we will focus on the prosecutor and the law enforcement contracts.
Mr. Koudelka explained that we have had an agreement with the County for prosecuting services, the
entirety of our City's existence; said those services mostly include misdemeanors and infractions, including
animal control infractions; and said the current agreement has an automatic annual renewal. He further
explained about the services, including our challenges and cost control measures; that we try to manage
cost and provide good value to our taxpayers, and said it might be a good idea to consider spending a little
more money; said over the past few years the state guidelines regarding caseload management changed to
limit the number of cases a public defender can handle; said we need adequate time and resources as public
defender costs are about twice as much as prosecutor services; said we added two diversion attorneys, and
we preferred to add on the prosecutor side; said that cases such as DWLS, driving while license suspended,
consume a lot of resources but if the case meets certain criteria, it can be diverted, which process he
explained, has been very effective. Mr. Koudelka also discussed the benefits to continue to contract versus
hiring a prosecutor in-house; but he said that we are the only city our size without an in-house prosecutor;
he said some cities like greater control when looking at the criminal justice system, and a lot of time it is
the prosecutor who is the most vocal. Mr. Koudelka said he met with the Prosecutor's Office over the past
year to talk about property crime cases, and homelessness, and said we have a good relationship with their
office, and noted that we are only responsible for misdemeanor charges. He also noted that research
continues as we work to determine what we need to have better outcomes and not a revolving door with
some criminals; he said law enforcement found that there are a few criminals causing a large number of the
property crimes and whey they are removed from the streets, the reduction in property crimes is noticeable,
just as when those people are released, property crimes increase, and again he noted we have no control
over felonies. Mr. Koudelka also noted that the Prosecutor's Office doesn't have the resources to pursue all
of the property crime cases.
Concerning the pros and cons of having this service in-house, Mr. Koudelka mentioned that we have not
identified any issues with the current services; and he asked Council if they have any concerns or certain
things they want from this contract, and that identifying goals gives staff an opportunity to pursue those
goals so it helps staff know what Council is looking for. The subject of the jail was also discussed and
whether we have the ability to direct those services and help reduce jail costs; and Mr. Koudelka mentioned
there will be information forthcoming from the Law and Justice Council and that there are still some things
we want to examine; he said the jail is often full and that causes issues so he suggested maybe we should
be looking at different types of charges and moving some people out of jail and moving others in. City
Attorney Driskell added that these are all very complex issues and said that Council will be hearing a
discussion within the next few weeks from the Justice Task Force on many of these issues. Further
discussion included concerns with pretrial; observations of the court process; following up on cases;

treatment instead of incarceration; budget concerns; jail locations; levels of service, and mention that should
we ever decide to hire in-house, there is room on the third floor of City Hall.
Law Enforcement: Mr. Koudelka said that we have a five-year agreement effective January 1, 2018, which
includes a twenty-four month termination notice after three years; which means, he explained, if we wanted
to end this agreement, we would need to give notice by January 1, 2021, and Mr. Calhoun added that the
24-month termination would be required from either party, and said the idea was it would take a couple
years to set up our own police department. Mr. Koudelka spoke about costs compared with other similarly
sized cities, as shown on his law enforcement charts; he went over the history of the agreement; and also
mentioned vehicles, vehicle replacement and vehicle color and that we are still in the process of changing
that color as we replace vehicles; adding that it is nice to see the identity of our police department.
Councilmember Woodard said he had heard that some deputies where not thrilled with our new vehicle
color. Chief Werner said he had heard that a while back but nothing negative in a while, adding that the
color is distinctive. Mr. Koudelka mentioned that it is fairly rare for a city our size to not have its own police
force. He also discussed dedicated officers, cost methodology, and that we have formed our own drug and
investigative unit; he said that the terms of this contract helped solidify supervision of that unit and how it
works; he noted we have a good relationship with our command staff and the patrol units and the investigate
units work cohesively as a single force; he also said he can't imagine handling the homelessness situation
without the assistance of this model. Chief Werner added that having the chronic nuisance ordinance is a
great tool. Mr. Koudelka spoke of the model and the number of dedicated officers, and mentioned the
previous loss of 27 commissioned officers which happened due to County budget cuts, but said the number
of our dedicated officers was not reduced and in fact, we even added officers; said we are known as being
financially prudent and we didn't make any cuts to law enforcement even during the last economic
recession.
Sgt. Lyons went over the data on the spreadsheet, and mentioned the focus on retail theft or shoplifting and
that it has become quite a problem; said he heard that Wal-Mart was losing $1 million a month in theft; he
said that many retailers don't even bother to report it; said he realizes a lot of this is tied to drug addiction;
he also mentioned that the officers try to focus on the chronic offender. Mr. Koudelka ended by explaining
that the plan moving forward is to give Council information on all the units so Council knows exactly where
we stand in staffing, what is authorized, how many positions we have filled, how many in training, and how
many vacant, along with explanations; he also mentioned performance measures and percentages of calls
responded to as well as response times; and said he hopes to provide updates to Council throughout the year
so Council will have a better idea of how the contract is performing.
A recess was called at 1:36 p.m. The meeting reconvened at 1:45 p.m.
8. Potential Resource and Conservation Office (RCO) Grant Applications — Mike Stone, Chaz Bates
Parks and Recreation Director Stone explained that today we are looking at an opportunity to examine three
different grants from the Recourse and Conservation Office (RCO): planning, park acquisition, and park
development. Mr. Bates noted that although the RCO considers itself a small state agency, they have the
fourth largest capital budget in the state and offer a variety of grant programs, and that between 1964 and
2015, they funded over 9,000 projects at a cost of about $2.2 billion; he mentioned we have a representative
on the Washington Wildlife and Recreation Project (WWRP), but that won't start until later this year; said
he is pleased to have been of assistance in the development of our City's Parks and Recreation Master Plan,
and noted that these programs are within that plan.
Mr. Stone went over the 2020 RCO grant information as shown on the green and white sheet, for the
Mirabeau Point Park, Balfour Park, and new community park on the north bank of the Spokane River
between Sullivan and Barker and said that the DNR (Department of Natural Resources) is very interested
and think they might have some internal funding; said they have in-house expertise and they are optimistic
we might be able to do this project without a grant; he noted the NOVA -Trails grant is very competitive,
and said that grant application isn't due until November so we have time to work with the DNR. There was
Special Council Meeting, Workshop: 02-11-2020 Page 6 of 7
Approved by Council:
DRAFT
also discussion about Balfour Park and that the community wants to see something happen there and that a
grant application could be the beginning of moving that park forward. Mr. Calhoun said that $1.985 million
has been set aside toward Balfour Park development, with another $461,000 earmarked for frontage
improvements; said that every year we want to do those frontage improvements and every year those costs
increase; and some suggested if we want to encourage the Library to move forward, that maybe the first
project would be this piece closet to the library site. In looking at the multi -colored map/plan, Mr. Stone
said that we don't know what the footprint of the library would be yet as it could change but we don't want
to have to retrofit something in the future.
There was discussion about property acquisition and having a park on the north bank of the River, at an
estimated cost of $2.2 million; and that there is a possibility of a $1 million grant with a 50% match; and
Mr. Stone noted that the acquisition grant includes that the property must be developed within five years,
but if we were to have a large, multifaceted project, said we could ask for an extension; that if we were
granted and owned the property, we would have to provide public access from the first day, and he added
that the public is already getting in that area now; said we may be eligible to apply for a waiver of
retroactivity, which means you can apply for the grant and if successful, they will reimburse up to $1 million
for the purchase of the property.
Discussion continued about pursuing a retroactive application; mention that WSDOT has now surplused
this property and notified us if we want to acquire the property, we need to let them know. Mr. Driskell said
we tentatively let them know we are interested in having that discussion with Council; he said we are not
asking for that decision today, and that staff will bring this forward in a subsequent Council meeting for a
motion consideration to determine whether we want to acquire the land; he noted there are others interested
including someone who wants to turn it into apartments, and someone else who wants to turn it into a gravel
pit. Mr. Stone explained that this site has it all with access to the river, and it is a natural area; he said this
is also likely a once in a lifetime purchase opportunity for a City of our size; and said he thinks we would
score very highly on the grant application. Mr. Calhoun said this will be brought formally before Council,
and if WSDOT knows we are moving forward, they won't sell it out from under us, which prompted Mr.
Driskell to explain that after today, he would contact WSDOT to let them know of our interest, and said
this issue will be cued up in very short order for Council's consideration. Mr. Calhoun noted that we will
need a fairly modest plan this 45 acres; and there was discussion about what to include in such a plan, such
as parking and picnic shelters.
9. Advance Agenda
Mayor Wick mentioned Liberty Lake's Harvard/Henry Road project and asked if Council would like to
endorse lifting that project off the State's pause list in order to get the project re -activated. After discussion
about the project, mention of Liberty Lake's use of our City logo without our permission; including SRTC
on their flyer also without permission; and the idea of coordinating the project with the Department of
Transportation, Mr. Calhoun stated that the session goes for another three and a half weeks, and said we
would be interested in our Barker Interchange project being removed from the pause list, and if Liberty
Lake is advocating theirs, perhaps they can include ours as well. Mr. Calhoun said he will contact Liberty
Lake and ask them to add our Barker Interchange project, and if there is a problem, he will let Council
know at the next Council meeting.
It was moved by Councilmember Thompson, seconded and unanimously agreed to adjourn. The meeting
adjourned at 2:28 p.m.

be used to fund construction or operation of a homeless shelter, but could be used for longer term low
income affordable and supportive housing. Mayor Wick invited public comment. Ms. Barb Howard,
Spokane Valley: spoke about our City not getting credit for the money we have given to help with the
homeless. There were no other public comments. Vote by acclamation: in favor: unanimous. Opposed:

NON -ACTION ITEMS:
8. City Hall Update — John Hohman
Deputy City Manager Hohman introduced Mr. Robb Dibble of Dibble Engineering of Seattle, who is the
lead structural engineer on the repair of the curved wall in the back of Council Chambers. After again giving
a brief background of the situation, Mr. Hohman said that Mr. Dibble has been inspecting the situation all
day today, but is not in a position to discuss his findings at this time as he needs to analyze what he has
learned. Mr. Hohman again stressed that we are obligated to adhere to the low bid process and that Meridian
Construction was the low bidder for the construction; and stressed again that financial responsibility for
this work lies solely with Meridian and its subcontractors, and that we intend to seek full reimbursement.
Mr. Dibble gave a brief background of his work and his company; and said he is a structural engineer, and
that he is putting together an investigation plan which is being implemented; that he will survey the data,
and will document elevation changes based on what we know has occurred, and that he will do an ultrasound
to make sure there is no long-term permanent damage; said his goal is to help get this building back to the
condition and confidence we should have so it will continue to perform as intended; he explained that they
had to get into the wall in order to identify and address the deficiencies; that other items have been raised
and that he will have a scope of repair and expects to have a completed document to publish in the coming
weeks so the scope can be priced and handed to Council to determine how to pursue the settlement; and
said he is here to help this building get back to the fit and finish it deserves. Councilmember Thompson
asked about having a mural or pictures on the temporary wall or if there is any plan to make it look more
aesthetically pleasing without a lot of expense. Mr. Hohman said they are pricing paint and can look to
other means to soften the impact to the back of the room.
9. Spokane Transit Authority Update — STA CEO Susan Meyer; and Karl Otterstrom, Planning Director
STA's CEO Ms. Meyer said that tonight they will give an update on the routes that serve the greater
Spokane Valley; and she expressed her appreciation of Councilmember Haley as the STA Board Chair, and
of new board member Councilmember Hattenburg; and she then introduced Mr. Karl Otterstrom, Director
of Planning and Development. Mr. Otterstrom talked about STA's Moving Forward campaign and revisions
as STA continues to seek ways to improve system performance and respond to community input; he went
over the planning process; 2021-2022 service revisions timeline and preliminary proposal focus areas,
which includes Spokane Valley; he also mentioned network adjustments to improve service effectiveness
to address significant requests for service; he showed a map of the preliminary concept and mentioned
several routes including the Mirabeau Point Express, Indiana/Mission, and the Community College, as well
as modified routes to serve the Spokane Valley Partners, Valley Hospital, Valley Mall, and the Mirabeau
Park and Ride. Mr. Otterstrom finished by noting the online survey, which he said is open until March 2;
he said a public hearing is set for July, and if approved, changes to routes in Spokane Valley would become
effective May 2022. Council thanked Ms. Meyer and Mr. Otterstrom for their presentation.
10. Sullivan/Wellesley Intersection Improvement Project — Bill Helbig, Gloria Mantz
Mr. Helbig said tonight's presentation is an update on this project including the existing conditions, the
future of Spokane County's Bigelow Gulch project and how it connects to this project; where we are in the
project's budget; and that staff will step back about 19 months to when the intersection's options were
Council Meeting Minutes: 02-18-2020 Page 3 of 7
Approved by Council:
DRAFT
presented to Council, the options' criteria, which option Council selected, and where we are today after
working on this project for about 19 months since Council made that selection.
Ms. Mantz explained that this intersection is currently a four-way stop controlled intersection with about
13,000 vehicles per day and that the intersection is currently at a failing level of service and has been so
since at least 2014; she noted that there have been 17 accidents in the last eight years. Ms. Mantz explained
that the intersection is adjoining the East Valley Middle School and the East Valley High School. She stated
that phase six of the Bigelow Gulch Project will be re -aligning Bigelow and that currently it intersects
Forker and Progress, and with the phase six, Progress will be deadened and the traffic will be shifted into
the intersection of Sullivan and Wellesley. Ms. Mantz noted that with the completion of the County's
project, the intersection will experience about 23,000 vehicles a day by 2040. Ms. Mantz also went over
the project's background and budget, including grant awards, Spokane County's financial contribution, and
project coordination between us and Spokane County, which has been ongoing for about the last two years,
which discussions included the benefits of having both projects constructed simultaneously, which will help
minimize the impacts to the public; she mentioned that the County also amended their NEPA (National
Environmental Protection Act) documents to include our project, which saved us having to file NEPA
documents; she noted that the County is in the process of acquiring right-of-way from the school needed
for our projects as well as theirs, which saves our City a tremendous amount of time and work.
Mr. Helbig continued with slide 6 of the PowerPoint, noting that these next few slides were actually shown
to Council during the presentation of summer of 2018, where Council was presented the options for the
intersection, and decided upon the signalized intersection option; and he noted some of the more important
criteria included on slide 6 include vehicle safety, pedestrian safety, and project costs. Via two new slides,
Mr. Helbig explained the vehicle safety and pedestrian safety at roundabouts versus signalized
intersections; and of the different types of conflict points for signals and roundabouts; he added that speeds
in roundabouts are generally 20 or 25 mph, and that roundabouts are generally safer for pedestrians. Mr.
Helbig further explained that for this intersection, if a roundabout were added, it would be between two
schools; and he said that students are a group of pedestrians who tend not to use crosswalks, so a roundabout
in this location would be a matter of educating the pedestrians. Looking at new slide 8, Ms. Mantz added
that in this intersection for the concept roundabout shown, and the designated crosswalks, pedestrians
wouldn't be using those designated crosswalks, but would be jaywalking; and that the distance between the
two crosswalks would be approximately 180 feet. Mr. Helbig further explained that if someone were using
the one crosswalk, they would then have to travel 180 feet to the next crossing. Another criteria examined
back in 2018, Mr. Helbig said, was right-of-way needs; for the roundabout, we would need eight times
more right-of-way than what would be needed for signalization. Mr. Helbig said the public was given the
information about roundabouts and how they would operate at schools; he said there is not another situation
in our state with one roundabout between a middle and a high school; and he said the public voiced their
concern about students navigating between the schools, and not using the cross -walks, and of inexperienced
drivers using the roundabout. Councilmember Haley mentioned that a safety feature of roundabouts is the
slower speed; and that school zones are also a slower speed. Mr. Helbig agreed that one will still have to
take into account the pedestrians using the facilities and using them as they were designed. Mayor Wick
mentioned he had heard about a tunnel for pedestrians to cross. Mr. Helbig noted that the tunnel would not
be for normal pedestrian activity, but for sports activities and to allow the students and coaches to get their
equipment safety across the street; in addition, Mr. Helbig said it is his understanding that the tunnel is only
open when they need to get their sports equipment moved.
Ms. Mantz said that during the July 3, 2018 Council meeting, there was a motion consideration for which
option and Council chose the signalized intersection in a vote of six to one; she said staff has been working
since that July meeting and we are now at 90% design complete, with right-of-way acquisition in progress;
that construction is planned for 2021; that so far we spent $50,000 for intersection analysis, $150,000 for
signal design, and $45,000 for right-of-way consultant, and that these figures do not include the County's

efforts. She mentioned the March 14, 2018 public meeting which she said was very well attended; she
mentioned that staff also met and coordinated this project with East Valley District Superintendent Kelly
Shea several times, most recently last week; she said he is supportive of roundabouts, but feels that is not
the right solution for this intersection due to the issue of pedestrian safety, inexperienced drivers, and the
two schools; and said if Council wants to change the option, he highly recommends more public outreach.
Ms. Mantz noted we would have to amend the NEPA, which would take three to six months as we would
probably have to do our own if the projects limits change; said we would set the clock back and re -design
the projects and start with square one, and the County would have to wait on negotiations from us; she said
the County indicted they would like construction in 2021 and don't want to delay their project; but if we
change to a roundabout, it would delay the project until 2022, and we would have to do more public
outreach; and we would have to explain to SRTC (Spokane Regional Transportation Council) why the
delay. In response to a question about repaying funds, Ms. Mantz said she has asked but has not received a
definitive answer. Mr. Helbig said it is up to Council on how to move forward, and staff is looking for
direction; and Ms. Mantz added that staff still recommends a signal for this intersection. Deputy Mayor
Peetz asked about maintenance cost for signalization, and Ms. Mantz replied the cost is about $2,000 a year.
Councilmember Hattenburg said as a former teacher, he knows it is difficult to educate students to use the
crossing; that he never thought about putting in a roundabout. Councilmember Haley said this had come up
before when she was on an education committee with Mr. Shea and there were a lot of safety concerns with
a roundabout, and he would lose a lot of his playing field; concerning the tunnel, she said that cannot be
used for back and forth traffic or kept open as there would be people hiding in the tunnel, but it can only be
used for moving equipment.
Deputy Mayor Peetz said originally the thought was a roundabout would be better; but with recent
comments maybe some attitudes changed; said she understands school speed zones; said there has been
mixed feedback and she mentioned there are no issues with the roundabout in Liberty Lake. She also noted
she doesn't want to do a signal and in 15-20 years come back and do a roundabout later; and suggested a
region -wide meeting with members of DOT (Department of Transportation) to see if attitudes changed.
Mayor Wick said according to a study on public opinion and roundabouts, that people are resistant before
construction, but once construction occurs, more people favor the roundabout; he said he feels people need
to be educated on roundabouts; said he has a handout from the federal highways that discusses reduction in
collisions; said he thinks the community will come around as we have more; said he knows it would be
more money and said people are afraid of the unknown; again said he realizes it will cost us time, but he
would rather do it now than later, and thinks there are still other grant opportunities we could go for; and
he mentioned that back in 2018, he was the lone vote to support the roundabout instead of a signal. Ms.
Mantz said she has nothing against roundabouts, just not for this particular location.
Councilmember Haley said she has a problem with the idea of inexperienced drivers including new drivers;
said she also has experience with kids of school age and there would be no way she would let her own kid
walk between those schools. Councilmember Higgins said if someone tries walking in a roundabout, there
are points you can't see a car or the car can't see the pedestrians; said we have already made significant
capital expenditures toward the signalized intersection and feels we should not just let that go and start back
up again from scratch; said there would be a delay of one to two years, and time is money; said this decision
was not made lightly when it was first made, and he doesn't see any reason to change. Councilmember
Woodard said that not every intersection is good for a roundabout as we are not going to get rid of every
signal in our city; he mentioned trucks and cars in a roundabout in an intersection between two schools
means a lot of traffic; said he was at the East Valley School District meeting and there was a lot of hostility
about kids trying to walk around a roundabout; said he doesn't think it will work well and we need to move
ahead as time is money and this is a place that needs to be fixed, and the sooner the better. Councilmember
Thompson said because public safety is very important and based on Mr. Shea's comments as well as

others, that this isn't the right place for a roundabout; and said she supports the signal and what we have
already done.
11. South Barker Corridor Study — Erik Lamb, Adam Jackson, Bill Helbig
Deputy City Manager Hohman said that tonight staff is bringing this subject forward for discussion and to
introduce the subject and see if Council would like staff to look into other items and do more research; said
we are not in a position to implement anything, as tonight is purely for discussion; said any impact fees in
the future would be a calculated percentage based on number of trips; also mentioned we would not look
to development to pay for all, but this is an area of discussion as we struggle to find resources for those
infrastructure improvement projects.
In going through the PowerPoint, Mr. Jackson explained that the purpose of the South Barker Corridor
Study is that is an area in the eastern part of our City which is experiencing significant development; that
the Barker Corridor level of service is degrading, and we want to evaluate the Barker Road corridor from
Mission to the south city limits to document existing conditions, identify future conditions, develop
mitigation recommendations, and identify fair share costs. Mr. Jackson noted the 10 study intersections as
shown on the slide and went over each intersection's existing conditions and expected conditions in the
year 2040; he also noted the several recommended intersection and road improvements. Mr. Helbig then
explained the information on the next few slides concerning the fair share cost analysis.
Deputy City Attorney Lamb then talked about the current mechanisms to collect traffic mitigation; he
explained traffic concurrency is one tool to have development pay for its fair share; and impact fees are
another potential option; said any mitigation is really an impact fee separate from traffic concurrency fees
and SEPA fees, both of which we use. Mr. Lamb explained the current process limitations, and discussed
impact fees; he said we are only talking about traffic improvements for the needed improvements in the
Barker Corridor; and he further explained the legalities of impact fees. A question arose about collecting
impact fees outside our City limits, and Mr. Lamb explained that we are not allowed to impose fees outside
our jurisdiction; but with SEPA and concurrency, we can notify jurisdictions of where they need to send
pending applications so we can provide comments for what we believe are their project's impacts to our
City, but we cannot require them to impose fees.
There was some discussion on previous developments and what they might have paid including a voluntary
$160,000 contribution from Morningside; that there are not many traffic engineers in the region which lends
to having more traffic studies; fees in lieu of studies; previous agreements with the County; and voluntary
fees or trip generation letters. Mr. Hohman noted that a previous fee of $3.00 per trip was based on a very
old study, which has not been adjusted for inflation or material increases over the last several years. Mr.
Helbig mentioned other jurisdiction traffic fees as shown in the PowerPoint; said there is a wide range of
fees but tonight's objective is to start dialogue. Mr. Hohman noted if Council is interested, there is a lot of
work to do including community involvement for example, with the Chamber of Commerce Transportation
Committee, and the Home Builder's Association, or to look at the conversion from trips to units; adding
that we did not want to embark on all that if Council is not interested. After further brief discussion on the
topic, there was complete Council consensus to continue to study the subject.
12. Advance Agenda — Mayor Wick
There were no suggested changes to the Advance Agenda.
13. Council Check -in — Mayor Wick
The heater fan noise as well as a change in acoustics were mentioned and Mr. Calhoun said he will check
into the situation. There was also mention again that some Councilmembers are hearing that our City is not
contributing to the homelessness issue and there was a suggestion of a media campaign. Councilmember
Wick mentioned the letter in front of Councilmembers, which is addressed to Congresswoman Cathy
Council Meeting Minutes: 02-18-2020 Page 6 of 7
Approved by Council:
DRAFT
McMorris Rodgers concerning USDOT Granting Program Requirements; and Councilmembers did not
object to having the Mayor sign and send the letter. Mayor Wick mentioned TPA (Tourism Promotion
Area) bill which would allow an increase in room fees from $2.00 to $5.00 a night; mentioned our interlocal
agreement with the TPA; and asked Councilmembers about supporting the bill. After brief discussion
Councilmembers agreed to ask our Lobbyist Briahna Murray to sign in, in favor of the bill. Mr. Calhoun
said he will contact Ms. Murray.
14. City Manager Comments — Mark Calhoun
Mr. Calhoun said that he just learned today of another BUILD grant opportunity and said perhaps the Pines
Grade Separation Project would be a possible project; and said we will have more discussion on that as the
deadline isn't until May 18.
It was moved by Deputy Mayor Peetz, seconded and unanimously agreed to adjourn into executive session
for approximately eight minutes to discuss potential litigation, and that no action will be taken upon return
to open session. Council adjourned into executive session at 8:52 p.m. At 8:58 p.m., Mayor Wick declared
Council out of executive session at which time it was moved by Deputy Mayor Peetz, seconded and
unanimously agreed to adjourn.

PUBLIC COMMENTS: After explaining the process, Mayor Wick invited public comment.
Ms. Kathryn Cote, Spokane Valley: she spoke concerning the Barker Sprague intersection and the proposed
roundabout; said if that goes in she'll have no access to her front yard and limited access on the Sprague
side; said she won't be able to back out to get into the west lane; and if a fire truck or ambulance needed to
get to her, there would be limited access; said this is a safety issue and she asked about moving the
roundabout a little more to the west to free up some of her property; said a roundabout would be taking
quite a bit off her front property; said she e-mailed Council her concerns; said she has no confidence in
engineers, and she'd like them to come out and walk the property with her.
Ms. Barbara Howard, Spokane Valley: said Councilmember Thompson had brought up the issue with the
water at the mobile home park; said there are others out there with septic tanks and she said we must protect
the aquifer; said if you want to go after that trailer court, the City or Council lost the last time; she also
mentioned a program for releasing people from jail, and she rhetorically asked why would we need $500
million for a new jail.
ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS:
3. Justice Task Force Wrap-up — Cary Driskell; Maggie Yates, Spokane Regional Law & Justice Dept.
City Attorney Driskell introduced Ms. Maggie Yates, the Spokane Regional Law & Justice Coordinator
who headed up the efforts on this task force that convened last spring; he said that he and Councilmember
Haley also represented the City on that task force, they had a charge to look at issues regarding a potential
jail, as well as ancillary related justice systems; he added that part of the issue has also been a lack of clear
information on jail operations.
Ms. Yates talked about some of the things the Regional Office of Law & Justice handle, such as grant and
locally funded initiatives, the Spokane Regional Law & Justice Council, and the Justice Task Force.
Concerning the Justice Task Force, she went over the process of data gathering and analysis and of the three
committees working on those issues, which then develop recommendations to the Board of County
Commissioners. She went over their guiding principles, then the targeted recommendations to improve the
system including redesigning of the summons, expanding peer support, supervised release, electronic home
monitoring, and investing in community based resources. Ms. Yates also explained the target populations
on the various aspects of the justice system on such items as failure to appear and failure to comply, and
she expanded on those associated recommendations to improve the process, along with assumed results.
Ms. Yates also spoke concerning jail population projections, and compared the targeted recommendations
with the forecast; and lastly, she went over some of the other Spokane County jail populations to be
considered for alternatives. Council thanked Ms. Yates for her information.
4. Radio Controlled Car Club License Agreement — Mike Stone
Parks & Recreation Director Stone gave some background of the Radio Control Car Club's use of their race
track at Sullivan Park and of our agreement for that use; mentioned we are looking for a two-year agreement
with another two-year renewal. There was Council consensus to place this license agreement on the March
10 consent agenda.
5. Indiana Avenue Preservation Project Update — Erica Amsden, Gloria Mantz
After Ms. Mantz introduced the project, Ms. Amsden explained about the existing conditions and project
design, and said the road is in bad shape; she talked about the traffic island revisions and about the Mall not
wanting a change during the holiday season and she explained they are looking for yet another traffic island
change; she continued explaining the project's design as well as temporary traffic control and closures; said
the landscape medians are an issue as well as timing, and said that closing those areas as shown, shortens
the project; that if the areas were not closed, it would extend the project several weeks and they are trying
to get it completed before school starts in August. Ms. Amsden mentioned revisions will be done to closure
area 1, and in closure area 3 the work will only be done at night; she also noted that staff spoke with Mr.
Hanson and he had no objections to the closures.

6. Sprague/Barker Intersection Improvement Project — Erica Amsden, Gloria Mantz
After Ms. Mantz introduced the project, Ms. Amsden went through the PowerPoint explaining the project
design options, with option A a traffic signal, and option B a roundabout; she mentioned that nothing has
been finalized in this project and this is just a concept. Ms. Amsden also noted that Central Valley School
District favors the roundabout for this location, but at the public meeting, the majority of comments favored
a signal. Concerning the previous public comment of Ms. Cote, Engineering Manager Mantz said she will
respond to her concerns. Ms. Mantz also noted that the single lane roundabout is the far superior option for
this location; and said staff seeks Council consensus to bring forward a recommendation for a single lane
roundabout so the project design can begin, followed by seeking NEPA (National Environmental Protection
Act) approval, obligation of the funds, and moving forward with the project. Councilmember Woodard said
he would prefer the roundabout, but that Mrs. Cote has some serious issues and concerns and asked if there
is any way to move it a few feet to the west and north in order to relieve a lot of stress on Mrs. Coty's
property. Ms. Mantz said staff is not dismissing her concerns and that staff will definitely work with her on
this issue. After further brief discussion, including mention that each roundabout is unique and this one will
not be located between two schools, there was consensus to move forward and bring a motion to Council
for the roundabout. Mayor Wick said he trusts staff will figure out a solution.
7. Adams Sidewalk Project Update — Glenn Ritter, Gloria Mantz
Staff went through the PowerPoint presentation explaining about the project location, existing conditions,
project design, public outreach, traffic control, estimate budget and tentative schedule. Councilmember
Woodard asked about looking to see if there are any other gaps in the sidewalk, and Mr. Ritter said that a
few areas have been identified that need repair. It was noted the project has a tentative bid opening of March
20, with project completion expected early August.
8. Ella and Conklin Sidewalk Project Update — Glenn Ritter, Gloria Mantz
Mr. Ritter explained about the two small sidewalk projects showing each project's location, existing
conditions, project design, public outreach, temporary traffic control and budget and funding, as well as the
tentative schedule from bid advertisement to projected completion.
9. North Sullivan Intelligent Transportation System Project Update — Glenn Ritter, Gloria Mantz
After Ms. Mantz introduced the project, Senior Engineer Ritter explained the project location, existing
conditions, design, public outreach, temporary traffic control, budget, and tentative schedule from bid
advertisement to projected completion.
10. Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) Land Acquisition — Cary Driskell
City Attorney Driskell explained about potential land acquisition of property currently owned by WSDOT
just north of the river, east of Flora, and south of the Union Pacific tracks and pointed out the property in
red on the overhead map; said the property consists of 45 or 46 acres, and if purchased, would be used for
park purposes. Mr. Driskell said WSDOT surplused the property; they had an appraisal performed a few
years ago and the purchase price of $2,091,600 was established by appraisal; said sewer and water were put
on the property in 2017. Mr. Driskell said he has had several discussions with WSDOT; that the property
is largely in a natural state with extensive coniferous trees along the westerly and southerly boundaries; he
noted the Parks Master Plan identified this as a good potential for park purposes; and if there is interest
from Council, he is seeking consensus to continue negotiations with WSDOT; he noted staff is also seeking
authorization from the Washington State Recreation Conservation Office (RCO) to apply for a grant of up
to $1 million to repay the City for acquisition costs; he noted the RCO authorization for retroactive payment
must come prior to a final decision to acquire the land and that the RCO may ultimately decline to award a
grant for these purposes, in which case he explained, the City would bear the entire cost of purchase.
Councilmember Peetz asked if any other parties are interested in this property and Mr. Driskell said there
are several, including someone interested in putting in an apartment complex, and Central Pre -Mix wanting
to put in another gravel pit by the river. Several Councilmembers said they feel this is an excellent
opportunity and there were no objections to staff moving forward.

11. Federal Legislative Agenda — Mark Calhoun, John Hohman
Mr. Calhoun said that he and Deputy City Manager Hohman has begun discussions on staff recommended
updates to the Federal Legislative Agenda; said the concept for this was identified in 2018 in preparation
for the 2019 budget. He noted the agenda has been condensed to a one -page introduction, followed by a
one -page (double -sided) sheet requesting policy changes to federal capital project funding and technical
requirements, then a double -sided handout for each project. Mr. Calhoun suggested the need to focus on
fewer items and asked Council to consider only including the policy items, and the Pines and Sullivan
projects. After Mr. Hohman went over the information in the handouts, and said that as suggested, the name
will change to Bigelow Sullivan in keeping with the title of the INFRA grant application which he noted
was due today; he said staff will make sure each flyer shows the project request and not the city request.
Mr. Hohman said staff feels we are not quite ready to have the Barker Road Corridor project come forward,
but to focus on the other two projects. Councilmember Haley said that in her STA trips to Washington,
D.C., for each grant it was noted they want to see the information on the front to show the amount of the
local match, and the economic development impact. Mr. Calhoun noted that we have been focusing on this
federal legislative agenda in the hopes to have information for Councilmember Thompson as she goes to
Washington, D.C. in March; he also noted that GSI (Greater Spokane, Inc.) has asked us to give them a
copy of our federal legislative agenda tomorrow; he said staff will make the revisions tomorrow and this
will come back next week for Council adoption consideration. Mr. Hohman also noted in working with our
federal lobbyist, the intent was to look at transportation items. There were no objections to the
recommended changes, including expanding the information on the front page, and to bring this back next
week for a motion consideration.
12. Advance Agenda - Mayor Wick
There were no suggested changes to the Advance Agenda.
INFORMATION ONLY
The (13) Department Monthly Reports, and the (14) Administration Quarterly Report were for information
only and were not reported or discussed.
CITY MANAGER COMMENTS
Mr. Calhoun said staff and some members of Council will be taking a trip to Washington, D.C. likely during
May concerning the federal legislative agenda, and said he assumes the decision of who among Council
will be going, will be up to the Mayor, and said that can be discussed more next week. He also noted that
the INFRA grant was turned in today for the combined Bigelow Gulch project; that in conjunction with
AWC, we were again awarded the Well City award for the tenth consecutive year, and that this gives us a
2% discount on health insurance premiums. Mr. Calhoun stated that Chief Werner is retiring June 30 and
that his second in command Matt Lyons will be retiring May 31, and to prepare for their departure, he and
Sheriff Knezovich have been looking at a succession plan; that by contract the Sheriff recommends three
people for the chief position and then the appointment is done by the City Manager. Mr. Calhoun said the
interview process is complete and he announced that he chose undersheriff Dave Ellis with an effective
date of July 1, 2020 as our new police chief.
It was moved by Deputy Mayor Peetz, seconded and unanimously agreed to adjourn. The meeting
adjourned at 9:02 p.m.

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Administrative Report — Potential Grant Opportunity: Better Utilizing
Investments to Leverage Development (BUILD) FY 2020
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: RCW 35.77.010: Six -Year Transportation Improvement Program
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN:
• February 4, 2020: City Council authorized the City manager to apply for an INFRA grant for
the joint -application with Spokane County for the Bigelow -Sullivan Corridor project.
• January 21, 2020: City Council authorized the City Manager to enter into a Memorandum of
Understanding with Spokane County for a consultant contract in order to prepare and submit
an INFRA application for the Sullivan Road and Bigelow Gulch/Forker Road Improvement
Projects.
• June 4, 2019: City Council authorized the City Manager to apply for BUILD FY19 grant
funds for the Pines Road/BNSF Grade Separation Project (GSP).
• August 21, 2018: City Council authorized the City Manager to apply for Federal Railroad
Administration's (FRA) Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements Program
(CRISI) for the Pines Road/BNSF GSP
• June 5, 2018: City Council authorized the City Manager to apply for BUILD (FY 18) grant
funds for the Pines Road/BNSF GSP
• May 22, 2018: City Council authorized the City Manager to apply for FRA's CRISI FY 2018
grant funds for the Pines Road/BNSF GSP
BACKGROUND: The US Department of Transportation (USDOT) issued a call for projects on
February 18, 2020 for the BUILD discretionary grant program. BUILD was authorized as part of
the Consolidated Appropriations Act in 2020 and offers a total of $1 billion available for
transportation infrastructure improvement projects. Projects are evaluated on safety, state of
good repair, economic competitiveness, environmental sustainability, quality of life, innovation,
and partnership.
Minimum and maximum award amounts for urban projects are $5 million and $25 million,
respectively. No state is permitted to receive over $100 million of awarded funds. Total awarded
funds will be split between urban and rural areas, with no single area receiving over 50% of the
total awarded funds. BUILD requires a 20% non-federal match for awarded projects within an
urban boundary.
BUILD applications are due May 18, 2020 at 2PM PDT. Award announcements are on or before
September 15, 2020. If awarded, BUILD funding must be obligated by September 30, 2022.
This obligation requires the City to have a signed and executed grant agreement in place with
USDOT by the September 30, 2022 deadline. Lastly, if awarded, BUILD funding must be fully
expended (i.e. expended, invoiced, or reimbursed) by September 30, 2027.
There are multiple scenarios to consider when evaluating which project may be best suited for
the BUILD program. These scenarios will be discussed.
OPTIONS: Council consensus to pursue a BUILD FY20 grant.
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Staff requests consensus from City Council on how
to pursue the BUILD FY20 program. At a subsequent City Council meeting, staff will bring
forward a motion consideration requesting City Council to direct the City Manager to apply to
BUILD FY20 for a specific project.
BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Updates to the existing project applications are provided by
staff with support from an outside consultant. Costs will be different for the two project options:
Pines Road/BNSF GSP: The consultant cost for updating the Pines Road/BNSF GSP
application is approximately $9,000. This cost will be born 100% by the City.
Bigelow -Sullivan Corridor: The consultant cost for updating the Bigelow -Sullivan Corridor
application is approximately $20,000. This consultant cost will be shared proportionally with
Spokane County and our City and will be based on each agency's share of the total requested
BUILD amount. It is anticipated that the City will be responsible for 70% of the consultant cost
($14,000) and the County would be responsible for 30% of the consultant cost ($6,000).

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Administrative Report — Location Discussion for Donated Sculptures.
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: Chapter 3.34 SVMC — Acceptance of donations and gifts;
chapter 3.46 SVMC — Non -architectural and engineering services.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Over the years, the Spokane Valley Arts Council has
donated a number of sculptures to the City for public display. On December 18, 2018, six
previously donated sculptures were accepted by the City. On March 12, 2019, Council approved
the Agreement with the Spokane Valley Arts Council
BACKGROUND: The Spokane Valley Arts Council (SVAC) is a not -for -profit 501(c)(3)
organization formed in 2004 for the stated purpose of working "with local businesses, civic
leaders and artists to cooperatively conceive, develop and implement art -related programs and
cultural activities." The SVAC has been instrumental in identifying projects to be constructed
and located on property owned by the City, for the cultural benefit of our citizens.
On March 12, 2019, Council approved an agreement with the SVAC that included various
aspects of our long-term relationship. Section 4.a. of the agreement requires that the SVAC
provide Council with a reasonable advance opportunity to provide input on which sculptures are
chosen for donation to the City, recognizing that the ultimate decision to accept or reject any
proposed gift of artwork rests solely with the City Council. Section 4.b. of the agreement further
specifies that the SVAC provide the City with information at least one year prior to the time a
sculpture intended for donation to the City is anticipated to be permanently placed, so the City
has an opportunity to determine where the piece will be installed and also to budget for the
costs related to installing the piece.
Staff will discuss the history of the art sculpture donations and their placement. Potential
locations for the three recently accepted sculptures, Huckleberry Daze by Jerry McKellar; Rock
Star by Bob Wilfong; and Indomitable Spirit by Jerry McKellar will be proposed for discussion by
the Council
OPTIONS: Council discretion.
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Council discretion.
BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: There will be a financial impact for the installation and
ongoing maintenance costs associated with locating these sculptures. The total is unknown as
each sculpture is unique and located at a different location.

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Potential Uses Associated with House Bill 1406: Encouraging
Investments in Affordable & Supportive Housing
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: RCW 82.14.540, SHB 1406, Spokane Valley Resolution 19-013,
Spokane Valley Ordinance 20-002
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: June 9, 2019, discussion with Council regarding
Substitute House Bill 1406 and homelessness; August 13, 2019, administrative report;
September 3, 2019 adoption of Resolution 19-013, declaration of intent to adopt enabling
ordinance; January 21, 2020, administrative report; February 4, 2020, First Reading of
Ordinance 20-002, refunding of sales and use tax funds for affordable and supportive housing
purposes; February 18, 2020, Second Reading and adoption of Ordinance 20-002.
BACKGROUND: In 2019, the Legislature approved SHB 1406, authorizing local jurisdictions to
receive a rebate on a portion of the state sales tax and use the proceeds to provide affordable
housing. The City Council has adopted a resolution of intent and an enabling ordinance.
Because the City does not have an accompanying qualifying tax, the City is limited to collecting
.0073% of the sales subject to state sales tax.
The attached presentation explains the requirements, allowed uses, options, and next steps.
OPTIONS: Council feedback on preferred options.
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Not Applicable
BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Revenue of approximately $200,000 per year for 20 years.

The City of
Spokane Valley
Potential Uses Associated with
Substitute House Bill 1406 -
Local State -Shared Tax for
Affordable and Supportive
Housing
Spokane
Valley
What is SHB 14O6
Provides a rebate of up to .0146% against the state sales tax of 6.5% to fund affordable or
supportive housing. If a City does not have a qualifying tax (Affordable Housing Levy, Housing
Sales Tax, Mental Health and Chemical Dependency Sales Tax, or Lid Lift for Affordable Housing),
then the maximum rate is .0073%.
Requires a resolution of intent to adopt legislation by Jan. 28, 2020 (Resolution adopted by
Council on September 3, 2019)
Requires legislation to authorize the tax by July 28, 2020(Ordinance adopted by Council on
February 18, 2020)
2
How Does It Work?
■ Once the City implements the sales tax, the state will continue to collect
the 6.5% sales tax from applicable sales, and refund the portion equal to
the amount the City qualifies for.
■ In the case of Spokane Valley, we do not have a qualifying tax so we are
limited to .0073% of the total sales.
■ The overall sales tax rate does not increase.
■ The City does not have a qualifying tax which limits the rebate to .0073% of the value of
items subject to the state sales and use tax.
■ The amount is capped based upon the City's rate applied to the value of items subject to
sales and use tax for the state fiscal year 2019-20.
■ Based upon actual taxable sales for 2019, the City of Spokane Valley's estimated rebate
cap would be $207,876. Staff will provide Council with the updated cap amount when the
numbers for the applicable time period become available.
■ The amount of the rebate can be lower, but it cannot be higher than the cap. This means
that the City could receive as much as $4,157,524 over twenty years, but the amount
could be much lower if the economy weakens and retails sales experience a downward
trend. For instance, in 2008, the City's sales tax revenues decreased by 7.3% from 2007.
In 2009, sales tax revenue decreased another 11.3% from the 2008 amount. The sales
tax revenue of 2007 was not matched again until 2014.
4
■ Must serve households with incomes at or below 60% of the area median
income of the City (100% = $49,510 as of 2018, 60% = $29,706 annually
in Spokane Valley; actual amount depends on size of household).
■ Residential housing rented by a person or household whose monthly
housing costs, including utilities other than telephone, do not exceed 30%
of the household's monthly income.
5
■ Sometimes referred to as permanent supportive housing.
■ Provides eligible clients with a permanent rental subsidy.
■ Pairs housing with case management and supportive services designed to
assist tenants with housing stability and provide a permanent solution to
homelessness for the individual.
■ Builds independent living and tenant skills and provides connections to
health care, treatment, and employment services.
■ Designed for the most vulnerable and the chronically homeless.
■ Helps reduce costs for shelters, hospitals, jails, and emergency services.
6
What Are Allowable Uses?
AU „ ities
. Acquisition, rehabilitation or construction of affordable housing
2. Funding the operations and maintenance costs of new units of
affordable or supportive housing
■ Cities with less than 100,000 population (at the beginning of the 20-year
period)
3. Providing rental assistance to tenants
Option #1-Acquisition, Rehabilitation,
Construction
n include new units within existing structures
■ Can include facilities providing supportive housing services for mental health and
substance use disorder treatment.
■ Revenue or Limited Tax General Obligation Bonds can be issued to fund projects initially.
Financing Costs, Sales Tax Stability, and impact to General Fund revenues are important
considerations.
■ The amount of 1406 funding by itself would likely not create an adequate supply of
affordable housing but pooling with other jurisdictions and utilizing it as gap funding in
combination with other tools such as tax credits and state housing funds can spur the
development of a much larger affordable housing stock.
ion #2 -Opera ions n ! , intenance
osts of - Units of Affordabie or
■ Could be used as an incentive for an organization that intended to
construct and operate a facility
■ A current clean-up bill under consideration clarifies that this can be used
for staffing necessary for daily operations of permanent supportive
housing.

• Must determine if a rent cap exists similar to HUD supported vouchers provided
through the Housing Authority. Feedback has indicated that the HUD cap is too
low for the current market.
• Contracting with an agency would be most likely as the City does not have the
staffing resources or expertize to mange such a program.
• Family Promise provides vouchers to families with minor children.
• The Housing Authority partners with many agencies such as Catholic Charities,
Frontier Behavioral, and Volunteers of America to provide vouchers through a
referral program.
• Spokane Valley Partners would likely have to add staff to administer this program.
• Would need to determine and consider administrative costs and what eligibility
requirements to apply. (HB 2797 would allow 3% to be used for admin. Costs)
10
What Other Opportunities Exist to
Encourage Affordable Housing?
Affordable Housing Sales Tax or Property Tax Levy.
Multifamily Tax Exemption - No property taxes for 8-12 years for affordable housing.
Inclusionary Zoning - A share of new construction is required to be affordable housing.
Bonus Density Codes - Allows greater density for affordable housing.
Codes allowing accessory dwelling units, small -lot development, cottages, microhousing.
Fee Waivers for Affordable Housing.
11
What Related Bills Are Currently Being
Considered?
HB 2797 - Clean-up bill for SBH 1406.
HB 1590/ SB 6126 - Allowing affordable housing sales tax to be imposed by councilmanic
authority.
HB 2497 - Adding development of permanently affordable housing to allowable uses of
community revitalization financing, the local infrastructure financing tool, and local
revitalization financing.
12
Currently conducting outreach and City contact, and gathering information about SV
homeless, needs, obstacles, and gaps.
Spokane will provide Point -in -Time Count results later this month.
Compiling a list of resources and funding with the assistance of the Continuum of Care.
Hope to present preliminary findings to Council mid -year along with some options to consider,
and begin development of long-term goals.
However, affordable housing, supportive housing for mental health and chemical dependency
and homelessness prevention are known current needs and align with the allowable uses of
1406 revenue.
13
■ Council identifies preferences regarding use of SHB 1406 Funds.
■ Staff explores options, providers, and costs associated with these options
(Consider using HCDAC to prioritize regional list).
■ Staff reports back to Council with details and moves to final determination.
