December 3, 2004
To the Honorable Mayor, Members of the City Council, and Citizens of the City of
Spokane Valley:
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the City of Spokane Valley, for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, is submitted herewith. This report
consists of management's representations concerning the finances of the City of
Spokane Valley. Consequently, management assumes full responsibility for the
completeness and reliability of all of the information presented in this report. To
provide a reasonable basis for making these representations, management of the
City of Spokane Valley has established a comprehensive internal control
framework that is designed to both protect the government's assets from loss,
theft, or misuse and to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation
of the City of Spokane Valley's financial statements in conformity with GAAP.
Because the cost of internal controls should not outweigh their benefits, The City
of Spokane Valley's comprehensive framework of internal controls has been
designed to provide reasonable rather than absolute assurance that the financial
statements will be free from material misstatement. As management, we assert
that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, this financial report is complete and
reliable in all material respects.
The City of Spokane Valley's financial statements have been audited by the
Washington State Auditor's Office. The goal of the independent audit was to
provide reasonable assurance that the City's financial statements for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2003, are free of material misstatement. The
independent audit involved examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the City of Spokane Valley's financial statements;
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management; and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. The
independent auditor concluded, based upon the audit, that there was a
reasonable basis for rendering an unqualified opinion that the City of Spokane
Valley's financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 are
fairly presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP). The independent auditor's report is present as the first component of
the financial section of this report.
1
t t
Generally accepted accounting principles require that management provide a
narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to accompany the basic financial
statements in the form of Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This
letter of transmittal is designed to complement MD&A and should be read in
conjunction with it. The City of Spokane Valley's MD&A can be found following
the independent auditor's report.
Profile of the Government
The City of Spokane Valley is a Noncharter optional code City, operating under
Section 35A of the Revised Code of Washington. It has a Council-City Manager
form of government with a seven-member City Council elected by the voters of
the City. Councilmembers are elected at large rather than by district, are
responsible for establishing the general guidelines and policies for the City, and
each serves a four-year term. The Council elects the Mayor and Deputy Mayor
from within its ranks. The Council appoints the City Manager as the City's chief
executive officer responsible for carrying out the policies and direction set by the
Council. This includes the enforcement of laws and ordinances, the execution of
contracts and agreements, and maintenance of peace and order in the City.
Incorporated on March 31, 2003, Spokane Valley is located in the eastern part of
Spokane County adjacent on the east by the City of Liberty Lake and on the west
by the City of Spokane. The City encompasses an area of 38.5 square miles and
is linked to established transportation corridors.
The City of Spokane Valley provides a full range of local government services.
These services include police protection, construction and maintenance of the
streets and traditional municipal infrastructure, planning and zoning, library
services, and park and recreational activities. In addition, the City operates an
equipment maintenance/rental fund and sewer and stormwater utilities. The City
contracts with Spokane County for police protection, jail and court services, park
maintenance, and street maintenance. Library services are contracted through
the Spokane County Library District.
Factors Affecting Financial Condition
The information presented in the financial statements is perhaps best understood
when it is considered from the broader perspective of the specific environment
within which the City of Spokane Valley operates.
Local Economy
The City of Spokane Valley is the second largest city in Spokane County with a
current population of 83,950. A diversified mix of industries exists within
Spokane Valley with retail and service sectors being the largest. Department
stores, automobile dealerships, and electronic/computer stores lead the retail
2
sector. The service sector has a large concentration of real estate companies,
service call centers, financial institutions, accounting firms, and computer
software companies.
The Spokane Industrial Park, located in the City, is the largest operating
industrial park in the Pacific Northwest with 545 zoned acres and over 4.2 million
square feet of enclosed space in 67 separate building. The park has
approximately 120 tenants employing over 4,500 people.
The economic recession which began in 2001 continues to impact the City of
Spokane Valley and the Inland Empire region. Spokane Valley experienced a
decline in development activity and general slowdown in business activity.
Regional economists predict that the Spokane area economy will grow slightly in
2004.
Long-term Financial Planning
The City is currently developing a five-year strategic plan for future budgetary
impacts. Due to the recession and the loss of the Kaiser Aluminum Plant, the City
anticipates that General Government revenues will be relatively stagnant for
2004 and 2005.
On the expense side of the City's budget, employee health benefits stand out as
a significant challenge, as the recent inflation rate in medical care has far
exceeded the general inflation rate. Health care costs are expected to influence
not only employee benefit costs but also contract costs with Spokane County for
law enforcement and street maintenance.
The governing body is committed to establishing and maintaining a healthy
general fund budget reserve. The goal over the next seven years is to maintain a
general fund unreserved balance of between 8 and 15% of revenues. The City is
committed to working with the citizens, businesses, and other governmental
agencies in delivering efficient and effective services to the community.
Cash Management
The City Finance Director, pursuant to the City's investment policy, manages the
daily cash and investment activity. Spokane Valley structures its investments to
minimize risk while maintaining reasonable yields on its portfolio.
Cash temporarily idle during the year was invested in the Washington State Local
Government Investment Pool and money market funds. The average yield was
1.2% which produced earnings of $54,468 on all investments for the year ended
December 31, 2003. In accordance with the requirements set by State law, the
State Deposit Protection Commission also insures deposits with in-state banks.
3
Risk Management
The City of Spokane Valley is a member of the Washington Cities Insurance
Authority (WCIA) for general liability and property damage coverage. The City is
self-insured for unemployment compensation benefits and uses the Washington
State Department of Labor and Industries for coverage to pay for medical care
for job-related injuries and illnesses, and wage replacement when the injury or
illness is serious enough to miss work.
The City accounts for its risk management activities in internal service funds and
charges the operating funds annually for the insurance costs. Please refer to
Note 7, Risk Management in the notes section of this report.
Retirement Systems
The City and its employees contribute to a mandatory retirement system
managed by the State of Washington. The Public Employees Retirement System
(PERS) (Plans 1,2, and 3) covers all non-uniformed regular employees. During
2003, the City contributed $14,291 toward these plans.
The City has replaced the Federal Social Security Program with a defined
contribution savings program. The City contributes to the program at social
security tax rates but incurs no unfunded liability since the program is a defined
contribution plan.
For information on the City of Spokane Valley's pension plans, refer to Note 6 in
the notes to the financial statements.
Acknowledgements
The preparation of this report could not have been accomplished without the
efficient and dedicated service of those individuals and departments who have
contributed to its publication. I would like to express my appreciation to everyone
who contributed to its preparation. I would also like to thank the Mayor and
members of the City Council for their interest and support in planning and
conducting the financial operations of the City in a responsible manner.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
December 3, 2004
The Honorable Mayor and City Council
11707 E Sprague Ave, Ste 106
Spokane Valley,Washington 99206
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each
major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Spokane Valley, Spokane County, Washington, as of
and for the year ended December 31, 2003, as listed in the table of contents. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the City's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our financial audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
governmental activities, the business-type, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining,fund information of the City of
Spokane Valley, Spokane County,Washington,as of December 31, 2003, and the respective changes in financial position and
cash flows, where applicable, thereof, for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America.
The Management's Discussion and Analysis on pages 11 through 20 and the budgetary comparison information on pages 63
through 67, are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the
Governmental Accounting Standards Board. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of
inquires of management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required supplementary information.
However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion on it.
Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City of
Spokane Valley's basic financial statements. The accompanying financial information listed as combining financial statements
and supplemental information on pages 55 through 75 is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required
part of the basic financial statements. The combining financial statements and 'supplemental information has been subjected
to auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated, in all material
respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.
The information identified in the table of contents as the Introductory and Statistical Sections is presented for purposes of
additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements of the City. Such information has not been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, accordingly, we express no
opinion on them.
Sincerely,
BRIAN SONNTAG, CGFM

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
This section of the City of Spokane Valley's annual financial report provides a narrative
overview of the City's financial activities for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003
and financial position as of December 31, 2003. This information should be read in
conjunction with the preceding letter of transmittal and the financial statements and
notes to the financial statements that follow. Previous year comparable data is not
available as this is the first year of incorporation for the City. Comparable data will be
provided in the 2004 annual financial report.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
•
• Net assets, the amount by which total assets exceed total liabilities, equal $70.9
million. A total of 90.1%, or $63.9 million, of total net assets is invested in capital
assets, such as streets, land, and buildings, and $1.3 million is restricted for
capital projects. Of the remaining net assets, $5.7 million is available to meet the
government's ongoing activities and obligations.
• The government's net assets increased by $72.0 million in 2003. The transfer of
Spokane County fixed assets and infrastructure provided $70.6 million or 98%
with the remainder being provided by governmental activities, $586 thousand,
and business-type activities, $794 thousand.
• Governmental fund balances at year end were $13.6 million. Of this amount, a
total of $10.7 million, or 78%, of the governmental fund is unreserved and
available to fund ongoing activities. The remaining $2.9 is earmarked for
interfund loan repayments.
• Unreserved fund balance in the general fund was a negative $2.4 million. This
negative fund balance resulted from initial startup costs of incorporation and is
funded through interfund loans from the street fund.
• Total City debt increased to $9.4 million during the current fiscal year. The City
issued this amount of new debt to fund the construction of a recreation facility
and for street capital projects.
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The City's basic financial statements are presented in three parts: 1) government-wide
financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial
statements. This section of the management's discussion and analysis is intended to
introduce and explain the basic financial statements.
Government-wide financial statements
The government-wide financial statements are designed to give the reader a picture of
the financial condition and activities of the City as a whole. This broad overview is similar
to the financial reporting of the private-sector businesses. The government-wide financial
statements have separate columns for governmental activities and business-type
activities. Governmental activities of the City include general government (finance,
11
executive, human resources), public safety (police), physical environment, economic
environment, transportation, mental and physical health, and culture and recreation. The
City's business-type activities consist of the sewer and stormwater utilities.
The statement of net assets presents information on all of the City's asset and liabilities,
with the difference reported as net assets. This statement is similar to the balance sheet
of a private sector business. Over time, increases or decreases in net assets may serve
as useful indicator of improvement or deterioration in the City's overall financial position.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the government's net
assets changed during the most recent fiscal year. This statement distinguishes revenue
generated by specific functions from revenue provided by taxes and other sources not
related to a specific function. The revenue generated by the specific functions (charges
for services, grants, and contributions) is compared to the expenses for those functions
to show how much each function either supports itself or relies on taxes and other
general funding sources for support. All activity on the statement is reported on the
accrual basis of accounting, requiring that revenues are reported when they are earned
and expenses are reported when they are incurred, regardless of when cash is received
or disbursed. Items such as uncollected taxes, unpaid vendor invoices for goods or
services received during the year, and earned but unused vacation leave are included in
the statement of activities as revenue and expenses even though no cash has changed
hands.
The government-wide financial statements can be found immediately following this
Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A).
Fund financial statements
The annual financial report includes fund financial statements in addition to the
government-wide financial statements. While the government-wide statements present
the City's finances based on the type of activity, general government versus business-
type, the fund financial statements are presented by fund type such as the general fund,
special revenue funds, and proprietary funds. A fund is a fiscal and accounting entity
with a self-balancing set of accounts used to account for specific activities or meet
certain objectives. Funds are often set up in accordance with special regulations,
restrictions or limitations. The City of Spokane Valley, like other state and local
governments, use fund accounting to ensure and show compliance with finance-related
legal requirements. The City's funds are divided into two categories, governmental and
proprietary.
Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions as are
reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. The
basis of accounting is different between the governmental fund statements and the
government-wide financial statements. The governmental.fund statements focus on
near term revenues/financial resources and expenditures while the government-wide
financial statements include both near term and long term revenues/financial resources
and expenses. The information in the governmental fund statements can be used to
evaluate the City's near term financing requirements and immediate fiscal health.
Comparing the governmental fund statements with the government-wide statements can
help the reader better understand the long term impact of the City's current year
financing decisions. To assist in this comparison, reconciliations between the
governmental fund statements and the government-wide financial statements are
12
included with the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund
statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances.
The City of Spokane Valley maintains nine individual governmental funds. The City's
four major governmental funds, the general fund, street fund, Mirabeau Point project
fund and street bond capital projects fund are presented separately in the governmental
fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures and
changes in fund balances. The remaining governmental funds are combined into a
single column labeled other governmental funds. Individual fund data for each of the
other governmental funds can be found in the combining statements later on in this
report.
The City maintains budgetary control over its operating funds through the adoption of an
annual budget. Budgets are adopted at the fund level and according to state law. A
budgetary comparison statement is presented for the major funds as a basic financial
statement. Other budgetary comparison schedules are included following the other
governmental funds' combining statements in this report.
Proprietary funds are used by governments to account for their business-type
activities. Business-type activities provide specific goods or services to a group of
customers that are paid for by fees charged to those customers. There is a direct
relationship between the fees paid and services received.
The City of Spokane Valley has two types of proprietary funds, enterprise funds and
internal service funds. Enterprise funds are used to account for goods and services
provided to citizens. Internal service funds are used to account for goods and services
provided internally to various City departments.
Enterprise funds of the City are used to report the same functions presented as
business-type activities in the government-wide statements with the fund statements
providing more detail then is reported in the government-wide statements. The
enterprise fund statements provide information for the City's wastewater and stormwater
utilities.
Internal service funds are an accounting device used to accumulate and allocate costs
internally among the City's various functions. The City uses internal service funds to
account for its fleet of vehicles, computer equipment, and insurance claims. Internal
service fund assets and liabilities are predominantly governmental and have been
included in the governmental activities column of the government-wide statement of net
assets.
Notes to the financial statements
The notes to the financial statements provide additional information that is important to a
full understanding of the data in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The
notes are located immediately following the basic financial statements.
Other information
The combining statements for other govemmental funds and internal service funds are
presented immediately following the required supplementary information.

GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Statement of Net Assets
The statement of net assets can serve as a useful indicator of the City's financial
position. The City of Spokane Valley's net assets at December 31, 2003 total
$70,871,330. Following is a condensed version of the government-wide statement of net
assets. Since this is the first year of incorporation no previous year comparable data is
available. Comparable data will be provided in the 2004 annual report.

Total net assets S 70,077 247 $ 794 083 70 871 330
The largest component of the City's net assets, 75.4% or $63.8 million, is its investment
in capital assets net of any related outstanding debt issued to acquire those assets.
These capital assets such as streets, bridges, parks, and equipment, are used to provide
services to the citizens. Consequently, these assets are not available to sell and convert
to cash for future spending. The majority of these assets were donated by Spokane
County at the time of incorporation.
Approximately 1.9% or $1.3 million of the total net assets of the City are earmarked for
construction projects such as street and infrastructure construction. These assets for
construction come from dedicated taxes.
Other functions of the City may access the remaining net assets of $4.9 million to meet
ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors. Examples of other City obligations which
these net assets may be used for are public safety, employee salaries, park
maintenance, and ongoing street maintenance (street sweeping, lane striping,
resurfacing).
At the end of the fiscal year, the City of Spokane Valley reported positive balances in all
three categories of net assets, for the government as a whole, as well as for the
separate governmental and business-type activities.

Changes in net assets
The changes in net assets table illustrates the increases or decreases in net assets of
the City resulting from its operating activities. The City of Spokane Valley's net assets
increased approximately $72 million in 2003. Since this the first year of City
incorporation no previous year comparable data is available. Comparable data will be
provided in the 2004 annual financial report.
Following is a condensed version of the City's changes in net assets. The table shows
the revenues, expenses, and related changes in net assets in tabular form for the
governmental activities separate from the business-type activities.

received $19,807 in grants for developing a growth management plan. Grants
and donations are recorded as program revenues in the statement of activities.
• Sales taxes accounted for approximately $10 million in revenues in year 2003.
The City received $7 million in diverted County Road Taxes that a new city
receives in its first year of incorporation. Other taxes received were real estate
excise taxes ($1.5 million), motor vehicle fuel taxes ($1.4 million), and hotel/motel
room taxes ($ 221 thousand).
• This being the first year of incorporation the City aggressively monitored contract
service costs and staffing levels. The net result was a first year unrestricted
reserve of$4.9 million for governmental activities.
Business-type activities of the City's sewer and wastewater utilities increased the City
of Spokane Valley's net assets by $794 thousand, accounting for 11% of the total growth
in the government's net assets. Key elements of this increase are as follows:
• The Sewer fund utility accounted for an increase of $239 thousand. The
revenues for the fund come entirely from transfers from other funds. Expenses
are for street asphalt overlays done during new sewer construction.
• The Stormwater Management fund accounted for an increase of $555 thousand
of the increase. The primary revenue source is a stormwater management fee
imposed upon real property. There were no stormwater related expenses.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY'S FUNDS
As discussed earlier, the City of Spokane Valley uses fund accounting to ensure and
demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.
Governmental funds
The purpose of the City's governmental funds is to report on near term
revenues/financial resources and expenditures. This information helps determine the
City's financial requirements in the near future. In particular, unreserved fund balance is
a good indicator of the City's resources available for spending at the end of the year.
At the end of the current year the City's combined ending governmental fund balance
was $13.6 million. Of the total ending fund balance, $2.9 million is reserved for interfund
loans. Of the remaining fund balance, $10.5 million is earmarked for capital construction
projects, $2.6 million resides with special revenue funds, and the General fund has a
deficit fund balance of$2.4 million.
Major governmental funds
The general fund is the primary operating fund of the City through which all receipts and
payments of ordinary City operations are processed, unless they are required to be
accounted for in another fund. Taxes are the major revenue source however the city
does not receive property tax in its first year of incorporation. At the end of 2003 the fund
balance of the general fund was a deficit $2.4 million.
16
The general fund deficit balance increased by $1.0 million from the beginning deficit
balance of$1.4 million. Revenues were less than projected for sales taxes and fines and
forfeitures. The beginning deficit fund balance resulted from incorporation start-up costs.
The street fund has a fund balance of $5 million, an increase of $5.1 million over the
beginning deficit balance of $87 thousand. Approximately $2.9 million of the fund
balance is reserved for an interfund loan to the General fund.
Diverted county road taxes accounted for the majority of revenues in the street fund. In
the first year of incorporation a new city is not required to assume responsibility for street
maintenance until 60 days from the date of incorporation. As a result, maintenance costs
were approximately $1.5 million. A transfer of $959 thousand was made to various funds
for street construction projects. The street fund made the general fund an operating loan
for$2.9 million.
The Mirabeau Point capital project fund has an ending fund balance of $6.9 million. The
fund accounts for bond proceeds issued for the construction of the CenterPlace
recreation center. Construction costs were $100 thousand and bond issuance costs of
$85 thousand.
The street bond capital projects fund has an ending fund balance of $2.4 million. The
fund accounts for bond proceeds issued for the street construction projects.
Construction projects are budgeted for the 2004 budget year. Bond issuance costs
amounted to $24 thousand.
Proprietary funds -
The City of Spokane Valley's proprietary fund statements provide the same type of
information found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail.
Factors concerning the finances of the City's proprietary funds have been already been
addressed in the discussion of the City's business-type activities.
GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
Being the first year of incorporation the General Fund budget was based upon estimates
from the various sources including the Washington State Boundary Review Board for
Spokane County and Spokane County. In total, actual revenues were $1.6 million less
than budget or about an 11% difference. The total actual expenditures were
approximately $1.4 million less than budgeted or 9% below budget.
The City Council amended the expenditure budget during 2003. The amendments
resulted in an increase of $612 thousand, less than a 4% change between the original
and final budgets. The primary change in the expenditure budget was due to increased
expenditures for start-up costs related to incorporation.
On the revenue side of the budget, the primary difference between the final budget and
the actual amounts relates to tax revenues and fines and forfeits. Sales tax revenues
were $1.2 million or 13% less than budget. Original estimates for sales tax revenues
were done in 2001. Projections for succeeding years were based upon a projected
growth rate of 2% per year. Actual sales tax growth rates for the last 3 years have been
flat.
17
Fines and forfeits were $566 thousand less than budget or 51% less than budget. The
primary difference relates to traffic infractions. Citations issued after the date of
incorporation take from 8 to 10 weeks to work their way through the court system. As a
result the projected amount of fines & forfeits was not realized until five months after
incorporation.
On the expenditure side of the budget, the largest variations between the final budget
and the actual amounts were the under expenditure of the public safety function by
approximately $717 thousand and capital expenditures by $220 thousand. Generally,
city staff reduced spending by 10 to 15 percent in all areas in anticipation of lower
budgeted revenues.
CAPITAL ASSETS AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION
Capital Assets
As seen earlier, in the summarized table of the Government-Wide Statement of Net
Assets, the City's investment in capital assets for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2003 was $64.2 million, net of accumulated depreciation. This investment in capital
assets includes land, buildings, improvements, machinery and equipment, construction
in progress, and infrastructure. Additional information can be found in Note 5 of this
report.
Major additions to capital assets during the fiscal year included the following:
• Spokane. County donated $70.7 million dollars in capital assets upon
incorporation of the City. Of this amount, $67.8 million was infrastructure assets
such as roadways, signals, and bridges. The balance of $2.9 million was various
park properties.
• Equipment purchases related to the start-up of new city totaled $735 thousand.
The equipment included vehicles, computers, telephone system and leasehold
improvements for city hall.
• Construction in progress on for the CenterPlace Recreation Center totaled $399
thousand dollars.
The following table provides a listing of the capital assets (net of accumulated
depreciation) at December 31, 2003.

Long-Term Debt
At the end of the current fiscal year, the City of Spokane Valley has total bonded debt
outstanding of $9,430,000. This amount is back by the full faith and credit of the City
(general obligation bonds) with debt service fully funded by general government
revenues.
Under State of Washington statutes general obligation indebtedness for general
purposes pursuant to a vote of the electorate is limited to 2'%% of actual value of taxable
property located within the City. Non-voted general purpose indebtedness is limited to
1.5% of assessed valuation and the combination of voted and non-voted general
purpose indebtedness cannot exceed 2.5% of assessed valuation.
The assessed valuation of the City for the year 2004 for purposes of determining the
legal debt margin is $4,409,259,851. Remaining debt capacities for the City for general
voted and non-voted purposes (2 'A%) is limited to $100,745,098.
The City of Spokane Valley maintains a A3 rating from Moody's for its non-voted general
obligation debt. Additional information regarding the debt limitations and capacities can
be found in Note 11 and in the Statistical Section of this report.
ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEARS' BUDGETS AND RATES
Several factors that affect the economic climate in the City of Spokane Valley were
considered when preparing the City's 2004 budget. The outlook for the regional
economy was weighed in relation to its expected impact on the City of Spokane Valley.
The character of the City, including its current and future business activity and its
attraction as a place to live, was evaluated. Based on the budget analysis, the City's
future is promising amid some short-term challenges.
As the nation emerges from a moderate recession with a weak labor market job growth
in Spokane County is expected to increase by just 1 percent, which amounts to about
2,000 jobs. That is roughly the same amount of growth as in 2003. At the end of 2003
the unemployment rate in Spokane County was 6.8 percent.
Coming off a record sales year for residential real estate, 2004 is expected to be another
strong year for sales. Mortgage rates are slowly rising which will effect residential sales
somewhat but some regional advantages may offset any effect from the rise in interest
rates.
As the national economy rebounded in 2003, the region experienced a resurgence in
taxable retail sales. For the first three quarters of 2003, Spokane County's total taxable
retail sales grew by 3.4 percent, compared with the same period in 2002. Many experts
believe retail spending in 2004 will depend in large degree on wage and job growth.
One area of concern is the Sprague Avenue retail corridor. Loss of retail businesses on
Sprague has resulted in 400,000 and 450,000 square feet of vacant office. The City
remains committed on encouraging economic development with family wage paying
jobs.
19
The City contracts with Spokane County for a majority of city service delivery including
public safety, park maintenance, and street maintenance. These contracts were
expected to increase moderately in 2004.
These factors were considered when adopting the City's budget for 2004. The City
adopted the maximum property tax levy as allowed by law, $2.10 per thousand dollars of
assessed valuation for its own purposes. Budgetarily, no general fund tax increases
were made in the 2004. Expenditures were budgeted at levels to maintain service
delivery at 2003 levels.

Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is
incurred, regardless of timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized
as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are
recognized as revenue as soon as all the eligibility requirements imposed by the
provider have been met. These revenues are therefore not reported in the funds. 1,417,671

Governmental Funds to the Statement of Activities
For the Year Ended December 31, 2003
Net change in fund blances-total governmental funds $ 15,077,170
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activites
are different because:
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However,
in the statement of activities the cost of these assets is allocated over their
useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is the amount by
which capital outlays exceeded depreciation in the current period. (6,655,604)
This is comprised of:
Capital outlays 923,662
Current year depreciation (7,579,266)
Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide current financial
resources are not reported as revenues in the funds. 72,468,084
This is comprised of:
Donated assets 70,687,614
Deferred taxes 362,799
Sales and use tax 1,252,303
Excise tax 138,800
Other taxes 16,994
Investment earnings 9,574
Bond proceeds provide current financial resources to governmental funds, but
issuing debt increases long-term liabilities in the statement of net assets.
Repayment of long-term debt is an expenditure in the governmental funds,yet,
the repayment reduces long-term liabilities in the statement of net assets.
This is the amount by which repayments exceeded proceeds. (9,554,321)
This is comprised of:
Proceeds from issuance of limited obligation bonds (9,554,321)
Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use
of current financial resources and therefore are not reported as expenditures in
the governmental funds. (92,321)
This is comprised of:
Accrued interest expense (35,923)
Accrued compensating absence expense (56,398)
Internal service funds are used by management to charge the cost of certain
activities, such as equipment rental, self-insurance, information technology and

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2003
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
The City of Spokane Valley was incorporated on March 31, 2003. The City operates under a
Council — Manager form of government. The City's major operations, as authorized under the laws
of the State of Washington applicable to a non-charter code city, include planning & zoning, public
safety, public works, and recreation &culture.
The accounting and reporting policies of the City relate to the funds included in the accompanying
financial statements conform to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) applicable to state
and local governments. GAAP for local governments include those principles prescribed by the
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB), when applicable, and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA)
pronouncements that have been made applicable by GASB Statements or Interpretation.
A. Reporting Entity
As required by GAAP the City's financial statements present the City of Spokane Valley — the
primary government. There are no component units (either blended or discretely presented)
included in these statements.
B. Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements
The City's basic financial statements include both government-wide (reporting the City as a whole)
and fund financial statements (reporting the City's major funds). Both the government-wide and
fund financial statements categorize primary activities as either government or business-type.
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net assets and the statement of
changes in net assets) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the primary
government. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these
statements. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental
revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on
fees and charges for support.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function
or segment are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable
with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or
applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a
given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the
operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not
properly included among program revenues are reported as general revenues.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary
funds. The city has no fiduciary funds. Major individual funds are reported as separate columns
while the remaining funds are combined for presentation purposes in the governmental funds
statements and the proprietary funds statements.
C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources
measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are proprietary funds. Under this
approach, revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is
incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues
38
in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as
all the eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources
measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as
soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when
they are collectable within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the
current period. For this purpose, the government considers revenues to be available if they are
collected within 30 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures generally are recorded
when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as
well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments are recorded only
when the payment is due.
Property taxes, franchise taxes, licenses, and interest associated with the current fiscal period are
all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current
fiscal period. Only the portion of special assessments receivable due within the current fiscal period
is considered to be susceptible to accrual as revenue of the current period. All other revenue items
are considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the government.
The city reports the following major governmental funds:
The General Fund is the City's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of
the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
The Street Fund is responsible for the maintenance of all city streets and bridges. Also,
construction activities for city streets are coordinated through this fund.
The Mirabeau Point Project Fund accounts for monies received from bond proceeds to be used
for the construction of a multi-use community center and acquisition of furnishings.
The Street Bond Capital Projects Fund accounts for monies received from bond proceeds to be
used for various capital street projects.
The city reports the following major proprietary funds:
The Sewer Fund is responsible for paying for the reconstruction of the streets after completion
of the sewering project.
The Stormwater Management Fund accounts for the receipt and expenditure of the stormwater
management fee. The expenditures are used for stormwater control construction and
management.
Additional, the government reports the following fund types:
Special revenue funds account for arterial street construction and maintenance, hotel/motel tax
revenues and expenditures, and revenues&expenditures for paths and trails maintenance.
Debt service funds account for the resources accumulated and payments made for principal and
interest on general government debt except those to be accounted for in another fund.
Capital project funds account for the acquisition or development of capital facilities for
governmental activities. Their major sources of revenues are from proceeds of general
obligation bonds, grants from other agencies and contributions from other funds.
Internal service funds account for data processing and risk management services provided to
other departments on a cost reimbursement basis.
39
Private-standards of accounting and financial reporting issued prior to December 1, 1989, generally
are followed in both the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements to the extent that
those standards do not conflict with or contradict guidance of the Governmental Accounting
Standards Board. Governments also have the option of following subsequent private-sector
guidance for their business-type activities and enterprise funds, subject to this same limitation. The
City has elected not to follow subsequent private-sector guidance.
As a general rule interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial
statements. Exceptions are payments in lieu of taxes, external type transactions within internal
service funds (revenues and expenses for interest or services to other governmental organizations)
and other charges for wastewater or stormwater services. Elimination of these charges would
distort the direct cost and program revenues reported for these functions.
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods,
services, or privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and
contributions, including special assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general
revenues rather than program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating
revenues and expense generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods
in connection with a proprietary fund's principal ongoing operations. The principle operating
revenues of the stormwater enterprise fund is a stormwater assessment fee. Operating expenses of
enterprise funds and internal service funds include the, cost of sales and services, administrative
expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition
are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City's policy to use
restricted resources first, and then unrestricted resources as they are needed.
D. Assets, Liabilities, & Fund Equity
1. Cash and Cash Equivalents
The City considers all highly liquid assets including demand deposits, money market accounts,
CD's, investment in the State Treasurer's Investment Pool, and short-term investments with a
maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition as cash and cash equivalents. These
amounts are classified on the balance sheet or in the statement of net assets within cash and cash
equivalents in the various funds. The interest on these investments is prorated to the applicable
funds.
2. Investments—(Refer to Note 3).
3. Receivables and Payables
Taxes receivable consists of property taxes and related interest and penalties. Accrued interest
receivable consists of amounts earned on investments, notes, and contracts. Accrued interest
payable consists of amounts owed on notes, loans, and contracts.
Customer accounts receivable/payable consist of amounts owed from/to private individuals or
organizations for goods and services including amounts owed. If the transactions are with another
governmental unit, it is accounted for within "due from/to other governments".
Receivables have been reported net of estimated uncollectible accounts. Because property taxes
and special assessments are considered liens on property, no estimated uncollectible amounts are
established.
Activity between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the
end of the fiscal year are referred to either "due to/from other funds" (i.e., the current portion of
40
interfund loans) or "interfund loans receivable/payable" (i.e., the non-current portion of interfund
loans). All other outstanding balances between the governmental activities and business-type
activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements as "internal balances". (Refer to
Note 9.)
Advances, between funds, as reported in the fund financial statements, are offset by a fund balance
reserve account in applicable governmental funds to indicate that they are not available for
appropriation and are not expendable available financial resources.
In the government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types in the fund financial
statements, long-term liabilities are reported in applicable governmental activities, business-type
activities, or proprietary fund type statement of net assets.
4. Inventories and prepaid items
Reported inventories in governmental funds consist of expendable supplies held for consumption.
The cost thereof has been recorded as an expenditure at the time individual inventory items were
purchased (purchase method).
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded
as prepaid items in both the government-wide and fund statements.
5. Capital Assets and Deprecation (Refer to Note 5).
6. Long-term Debt
Liabilities for long-term debt are recorded in the government-wide statement of net assets and in the
proprietary funds balance sheet. The liabilities include bond premiums and discounts, as well as
issuance costs, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds. Bonds payable are reported
net of the applicable bond premium or discount. Issuance costs are reported as deferred charges.
Long-term debt outstanding at year end is outlined in Note 11.
For governmental funds financial statements, bond issuance costs are expended at the time of
issuance. Bond premiums and discounts are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds.
Bond proceeds are reported as an other financing source net of the applicable premium or discount.
Issuance costs, even if withheld from the actual net proceeds received, are reported as debt service
expenditures. The nature of debt in the governmental activity is specific to a program and,
therefore; debt service costs are not an allocated expense.
7. Deferred Revenues
The deferred revenues account is used to offset receivables established in the governmental fund
financial statements for certain revenues that are measurable but not considered available to
finance payment of current obligations, and, therefore, not susceptible to accrual on the modified
accrual basis. When the receivable amounts are collected in future periods, this liability account is
reduced and corresponding revenue is recorded. Deferred revenues represented in this manner on
the accompanying financial statements are uncollected property taxes levied and uncollected road
taxes levied.
8. Compensated Absences
Compensated absences are absences for which employees will be paid, such as vacation and sick
leave. Vacation pay, which may be accumulated up to 360 hours, is payable upon resignation,
retirement, or death. All vacation pay is accrued when incurred in the government-wide, proprietary
and fiduciary fund financial statements. An additional amount has been accrued for the city's share
of deferred compensation and Medicare taxes related to the vacation accrual. A liability for these
41
amounts is reported in the government fund statements only if they have matured, for example, as a
result of employee resignations and retirements.
9. Fund Balance Designations and Reservations
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report reservations of fund balance for
amounts that are not available for appropriation or are legally restricted by outside parties for use for
a specific purpose. Designations of fund balance represent tentative management plans that are
subject to change. The City has reserved $2,890,000 in the Street Fund for advances to other funds.
E. Revenues, Expenditures, and Expenses
1. Program Revenues
Program revenues include charges for services to customers for goods or services provided,
operating grants and contributions, and nonoperating grants and contributions within the
Government-wide Statement of Activities. Charges for services include business licenses,
construction permits, and recreation program fees.
2. General Revenues
Property taxes, retail taxes, business taxes, excise taxes, and associated penalties & interest, and
interest & investment earnings are classified as general revenues within the Government-wide
Statement of Activities.
3. Interfund Transfers
Permanent reallocations of resources between funds of the reporting entity are classified as
interfund transfers. For the purposes of the Government-wide Statement of Activities, all interfund
transfers between individual governmental funds have been eliminated.
4. Expenses/Expenditures
Expenses in the Government-wide Statement of Activities are reported by function as a
governmental activity (general government, security of persons & property, physical environment,
transportation, economic environment, culture & recreation, or interest on long-term debt) or
business-type activity (wastewater, or stormwater). Certain indirect costs are included in program
expenses by function. In the fund financial statements, expenditures of governmental funds are
classified current by function, debt service principle and interest payments, or purchases of capital
items. Proprietary expenditures are classified as operating or non-operating.
5. Operating and Nonoperating Revenues and Expenses
Operating revenues and expenses for proprietary funds are those that result from providing services
and producing and delivering goods and/or services in connection to the proprietary fund's principal
ongoing operations. It also includes all revenue and expenses not related to capital and related
financing, non-capital financing, or investing activities. All revenue and expenses not meeting this
definition are nonoperating revenues and expenses.
NOTE 2 -STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY
A. Scope of Budget
Annual appropriated budgets are adopted for all funds on a basis consistent with generally accepted
accounting principals. Legal budgetary control is established at the fund level. Subsidiary revenue
and expenditure ledgers are used to compare the budgeted amounts with actual revenues and
expenditures. As a management control device, the subsidiary ledgers are used to monitor
expenditures for individual functions and activities by object class.
42
B. Procedures for Adopting the Original Budget
The City's budget procedures are mandated by the Revised Code of Washington 35A.33. The
following are key procedural steps in the City's budget development process. Note that the process
and dates are for the 2005 budget process and may be changed for future processes:
• In April, the official "budget call" required by State law is made to all department directors or
fund managers. Budget development instructions and other materials are provided to the
departments at this time.
• In June departments submit revenue and expenditure estimates to the Finance department.
The City Council and City management staff discuss City goals and priorities and reaffirm
overall City priorities, vision, and mission at a mid-year retreat. Additional policy guidance is
provided throughout the year.
• In July the Finance department submits the preliminary budget to the City Manager.
• In August the City Manager submits estimates on 2004 revenues and preliminary 2005
revenues and expenditures to Council.
• During September, preliminary budget documents were prepared, printed and filed with City
Clerk. This proposed budget is presented to the City Clerk and copies are made available to
the public. The Council set the dates of the preliminary and final budget hearings.
• Before December .31`t the City Council, by a majority vote, will adopt the budget by
ordinance, establishing the budget appropriation for the year.
• The approved budget is published and distributed during the first quarter of the following
year. Copies are made available to the public.
• Quarterly budget monitoring reports are published by the Finance Department to report on
actual performance compared to budget estimates and to identify any remedial actions that
may be needed.
C. Amending the Budget
The budget, as adopted, constitutes the legal authority for expenditures. The City's budget is
adopted at the fund level, so that expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at that level of
detail. 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 effect 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 approved by one more than the
majority after holding a public hearing.
The City's budget was amended three times during the fiscal year. The financial statements contain
the original and final budget information. The original budget is the first complete appropriated
budget. The final budget is the original budget adjusted by all reserves, transfers, allocations,
supplemental appropriations, and other legally authorized changes. All appropriations lapse at year
end. Unexpended resources must be reappropriated in the subsequent period.
D. Compliance
There have been no material violations of finance-related legal or contractual provisions, and there
have been no expenditures exceeding legal appropriations in any of the funds of the City.

E. Deficit Fund Balances
As of December 31, 2003 a deficit fund balance of $2,437,396 exists in the General Fund resulting
from initial start-up costs of incorporation. It is expected this fund balance will be eliminated through
a reduction of expenditures through the year 2005 in order to increase fund balance.
NOTE 3 - DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS
A. Deposits
The City's deposits and certificates of deposit are entirely covered by the federal depository
insurance (FDIC) or by collateral held in a multiple financial institution collateral pool administered by
the Washington Public Deposit Protection Commission (PDPC). The PDPC is a statutory authority
established under Chapter 39.58 of the Revised Code of Washington.
B. Investments
As required by state law, all investments of the City's funds are obligations of the U.S. Government,
U.S. agency issues, obligations of the State of Washington, general obligation of Washington State
municipalities (the State Treasurer's Local Government Investment Pool (LGIP), or certificate of
deposit with Washington State banks and savings and loan institutions.
The Washington Local Government Investment Pool operates in a manner consistent with the
SEC's Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The fair value of the portfolio is
calculated by the master custodian or by an independent pricing service under contract with the
State Treasurer's Office. The fair value of the City's position in the State of Washington Local
Government Investment Pool is the same as the value of the pool shares
Investments are shown on entity-wide Statement of Net Assets at fair market value or 2a7-like-pools
at amortized cost. Investments are reported within Cash & Investments of Governmental Activities
and within Cash & Cash Equivalents of Business-type Activities.
The City's investments are categorized to give an indication of risk assumed at year-end. The
following summary shows the City's investments at year-end categorized by risk.
• Category 1 includes investments that are insured, registered or held by the City or its agent
in the City's name.
• Category 2 includes uninsured and unregistered investments, which are held by the
counterparty's trust department or agent in the City's name.
• Category 3 includes uninsured and unregistered investments for which the securities are
held by the counterparty's trust department or agent, but not in the City's name.
The City had no Category 1, 2, or 3 type investments in their investment portfolio as of December
31, 2003.
C. Deposit and Investment Reconciliation
Amounts reported in the fund statements are as follows:

NOTE 4- PROPERTY TAXES •
The County Treasurer acts as an agent to collect property taxes levied in the county for all taxing
authorities. The County Assessor is responsible for determining what the individual property taxes
are, based upon the monies requested by the taxing districts and the assessed valuation within
these districts.
Taxes are levied annually on January 1 on property values listed as of the prior May 31. Assessed
values are established by the County Assessor at 100 percent of fair market value. A revaluation of
all property is required every four years. Taxes are due in two equal installments on April 30 and
October 31. Tax liens are automatic at the point the taxes are levied.
Property taxes levied for the current year are recorded as a receivable when levied, offset by
deferred revenue. During the year, property tax revenues are recognized when cash is collected. At
year-end, property tax revenues are recognized for collections to be distributed by the County
Treasurer in January. No allowance for uncollectible taxes is established because delinquent taxes
are considered fully collectible
The tax rate for general City operations is limited by State law (RCW 84.52.043) to $3.60 per$1,000
of assessed valuation, deducting from there the levy of$1.50 by the Spokane County Fire Districts
#1, #8, and #9, which leaves the City with the authority to levy $2.10 for its own purposes. This
amount may be reduced for any of the following reasons:
(1) The Washington State Constitution limits the total regular property taxes to one percent of
assessed valuation or $10 per $1,000 of value. If the taxes of all districts exceed this amount,
each is proportionately reduced until the total is at or below the one-percent limit.
(2) Initiative 747 passed by the voters in November of 2001 limits the amount by which a taxing
jurisdiction can increase the amount of its regular property tax levy to the lesser of the Implicit
Price Deflator(IPD) or one percent, plus adjustments for new construction and annexations. Tax
increases higher than one percent must be approved by the voters at an election held according
to RCW 84.55.050. A simple majority vote is required.
(3) The City may voluntarily levy taxes below the legal limit.
For 2004, the City levied $9,265,808 on an assessed valuation of$4,409,259,851.
NOTE 5 -CAPITAL ASSETS AND DEPRECIATION
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment, and infrastructure assets (e.g. roads,
bridges, sidewalks, an similar items), are reported in the applicable governmental or business-like
columns in the government-wide financial statements. The City defines capital assets as assets
with an initial, individual cost of more than $5,000 and an estimated useful life in excess of one year.
Such assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed.
Other donated assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of donation.
The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially
extend assets lives are not capitalized.
Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed.
Interest incurred during the construction phase of capital assets of business-type activities is
included as part of the capitalized value of the assets constructed.
A summary of changes in governmental capital assets follows:
Donated capital assets received from Spokane County at the time of incorporation were recorded at
cost and the accumulated depreciation at the time of transfer. These assets are shown as capital
contributions on the statement of activities. The following schedule details the assets transferred.

NOTE 6 - PENSION PLANS
Substantially all City of Spokane Valley full-time and qualifying part-time employees participate in
one of the following statewide retirement systems administered by the Washington State
Department of Retirement Systems, under cost-sharing multiple-employer public employee defined
benefit and defined contribution retirement plans. The Department of Retirement Systems (DRS), a
department with the primary government of the State of Washington, issues a publicly available
comprehensive annual financial report (CAFR) than includes financial statements and required
supplementary information for each plan. The DRS CAFR may be obtained by writing to:
Department of Retirement Systems, Communications Unit, P.O. Box 48380, Olympia, WA 98504-
8380. The following disclosures are made pursuant to GASB Statement 27, Accounting for Pensions
by State and Local Government Employers.
Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) Plans 1, 2, and 3
Plan Description
PERS is a cost-sharing multiple-employer retirement system comprised of three separate plans for
membership purposes; Plans 1 and 2 are defined benefit plans and Plan 3 is a combination defined
benefit/defined contribution plan. Membership in the system includes; elected officials, state
employees, employees of the Supreme, Appeals, and Superior courts (other than judges in a judicial
retirement system), employees of legislative committees, community and technical colleges, college
and university employees (not in national higher education retirement programs), judges of district
and municipal courts, and employees of local governments. PERS participants who joined the
system by September 30, 1977 are Plan 1 members. Those joined on or after August 31,2002 for
local government employees, are Plan 2 members unless they exercise an option to transfer their
membership to Plan 3. PERS participants joining the system on or after September 1, 2002 for local
government employees have the option of choosing membership in either PERS Plan 2 or PERS
Plan 3. The option must be exercised within 90 days of employment. An employee is reported in
Plan 2 until a choice is made. Employees who fail to choose within 90 days default to PERS Plan 3.
PERS defined benefit retirement benefits are financed from a combination of investment earnings
and employer and employee contributions. Retirement benefit provisions are established in state
statute and may be amended by the State Legislature.
Plan 1 retirement benefits are vested after an employee completes five year of eligible service. Plan
1 members are eligible for retirement at any age after 30 years of service, or at age 60 with five
years of service or at the age of 55 with 25 years of service. The annual pension is 2 percent of the
average final compensation per year of service, capped at 60 percent. The average final
compensation is based on the greatest compensation during any 24 eligible consecutive
compensation months. If qualified, after reaching the age of 66 a cost-of-living allowance is granted
based on years of service and is capped at 3 percent annually.
Plan 2 retirement benefits are vested after an employee completes five years of eligible service.
Plan 2 members may retire at the age of 65 with five years of service, or at the age of 55 with 20
years of service, with an allowance of 2 percent of the average final compensation per year of
service. The average final compensation is based on the greatest compensation during any eligible
consecutive 60-months period. Plan 2 retirements prior to the age of 65 receive reduced benefits. If
retirement is at age 55 or older with at least 30 years of service, a 3 percent per year reduction
47
applies; otherwise an actuarial reduction will apply. There is no cap on years of service credit; and a
cost-of-living allowance is granted (indexed to the Seattle Consumer Price Index), capped at 3
percent annually.
Plan 3 has a dual benefit structure. Employer contributions finance a defined benefit component,
and member contributions finance a defined contributions component. The defined benefit portion
provides a benefit calculated at 1 percent of the average final compensation per year of service.
The average final compensation is based on the greatest compensation during any eligible
consecutive 60-month period. Plan 3 members become eligible for retirement if they have: at least
ten years of service; or five years including twelve months that were earned after age 54; or five
service credit years earned in PERS Plan 2 prior to June 1, 2003. Plan 3 retirements prior to age 65
receive reduced benefits. If retirement is at age 55 or older with at least 30 years of service, a 3
percent per year reduction applies; otherwise an actuarial reduction will apply. There is no cap on
years of service credit; and Plan 3 provides the same cost-of-living allowance as Plan 2. The
defined contribution portion can be distributed in accordance with an option selected by the member,
either as a lump sum or pursuant to other options authorized by the Employee Retirement Benefits
Board.
There are 1,167 participating employers in PERS. Membership in PERS consisted of the following
as of the latest actuarial valuation date for the plans of September 30, 2002:
Retirees and Beneficiaries Receiving Benefits 63,756
Terminated Plan Members Entitled to But Not Yet Receiving Benefits 19,152
Active Plan Members Vested 98,994
Active Plan Members Nonvested 55.191
Total 237,093
Funding Policy
Each biennium, the state Pension Funding Council adopts Plan 1 employer contribution rates, Plan
2 employer and employee contribution rates, and Plan 3 employer contribution rates. Employee
contribution rates for Plan 1 are established by statute at 6 percent for state agencies and local
government unit employees, and 7.5 percent for state government elected officers. The employer
and employee contribution rates for Plan 2 and the employer contribution rate for Plan 3 are
developed by the Office of the State Actuary to fully fund Plan 2 and defined benefit portion of Plan
3. All employers are required to contribute at the level established by the Legislature. PERS Plan 3
defined contribution is a non-contributing plan for employers. Employees who participate in the
defined contribution portion of PERS Plan 3 do not contribute to the defined benefit portion of PERS
Plan 3. The Employee Retirement Benefits Board set Plan 3 employee contribution rates. Six rate
options are available ranging from 5 to 15 percent; two of the options have graduated rates
dependant on the employee's age. The methods used to determine the contribution requirements
are established under state statute in accordance with chapters 41.40 and 41.45 RCW.
PERS Plan 1 PERS Plan 2 PERS Plan 3
Employer* 1.40% 1.40% 1.40%**

NOTE 7—RISK MANAGEMENT
The City of Spokane Valley is exposed to financial loss resulting from City-caused damage to
property or persons, bodily injuries or illness of employees, and unemployment compensation. The
City is insured by the Washington Cities Insurance Authority (WCIA) for general liability and property
damage coverage. The City uses the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries
Insurance Services for coverage to pay for medical care for job-related injuries and illnesses, and
wage replacement when the injury or illness is serious enough to miss work. The City is self-insured
for unemployment compensation benefits.
The Risk Management Fund is used to account for, and finance the liability and unemployment
insurance costs. All departments of the City make payments through interfund assessments to the
fund on estimates of the amounts needed to pay prior and current year claims.
The Washington Cities Insurance Authority (WCIA) was originally formed on January 1, 1981
utilizing Chapter 48.62 RCW (self-insurance regulation) and Chapter 39.34 RCW (Interlocal
Cooperation Act) for the purpose of providing a pooling mechanism for jointly purchasing insurance,
jointly self-insuring, and/or jointly contracting for risk management services. WCIA has a total of 108
members.
New members initially contract for a three-year term, and thereafter automatically renew on an
annual basis. A one-year withdrawal notice is required before membership can be terminated.
Termination does not relieve a former member from its unresolved loss history incurred during
membership.
Liability coverage is written on an occurrence basis, without deductibles. Coverage includes
general, automobile, police professional, public officials' errors and omissions, stopgap, and
employee benefits liability. Limits are $3 million per occurrence self insured layer, and $11 million
per occurrence in the re-insured excess layer with no annual aggregate except $10 million per
member for public officials errors and omissions. The excess layer is insured by the purchase of
reinsurance and insurance. Total limits are $14 million per occurrence. The Board of Directors
determines the limits and terms of coverage annually.
Insurance coverage for property, automobile physical damage, fidelity, inland marine, and boiler and
machinery are purchased on a group basis. Various deductibles may apply by type of coverage.
Property insurance and auto physical damage are self-funded from the members' deductible to
$250,000 for all perils other than flood and earthquake and insured above that amount by the
purchase of reinsurance.
In-house services include risk management consultation, loss control field services, claims and
litigation administration and loss analyses. WCIA contracts for the claims investigation consultants
for personnel issues and land use problems, insurance brokerage and lobbyist services.
WCIA is fully funded by its members, who make annual assessments on prospectively rate basis, as
determined by an outside independent actuary. The assessments cover loss, loss adjustment, and
administrative expenses. As outlined in the Interlocal, WCIA retains the right to additionally assess
the membership for any funding shortfall.
An investment committee, using investment brokers produces additional revenue by investment of
WCIA's assets in financial instruments which comply with State guidelines. These revenues directly
offset portions of the membership's annual assessment.
A Board of Directors governs WCIA which is comprised of one designated representative from each
member. The Board elects an Executive Committee and appoints a Treasurer to provide general
policy direction for the organization. The WCIA Executive Director reports to the Executive
Committee and is responsible for conducting the day to day operations of the WCIA.
The City is self-insured on a reimbursement basis for unemployment compensation. The City did not
have any claims for unemployment compensation in 2003.

NOTE 8—INTERFUND BALANCES AND TRANSFERS
Interfund Balances
Loans between funds are classified as interfund loans receivable or payable on the fund financial
statements. Within the city, one fund may borrow from another when specifically authorized by
Council resolution. Due to other funds and due from other funds result from goods issued, work
performed or services rendered to or for the benefit of another fund of the same government. The
amount of interfund loans payable within one year is also included in due to and due from other
funds.
As of December 31, 2003 the Street Fund had loaned the General Fund $3,690,000 for cash flow
purposes. Of this amount, $800,000 was to be paid in 2004 so was classified as due to and from
other funds.
Due to other fund and due from other fund balances at December 31, 2003 were:
Due From Due To

Nonmajor enterprise funds 659,000 -
Internal service funds 2.767 729
Total government wide $1,569,712 $1,569,712
Interfund transfers are the flow of assets with a reciprocal return of assets, goods, or services in
return. The City uses transfers to (1) move revenues from the fund that stature or budget requires to
collect them to the fund that statute or budget requires to expend them, (2) move receipts restricted
to debt service from the funds collecting the receipts to the debt service fund as debt service
payments become due, and (3) use unrestricted revenues collected in the general and street funds
to finance various programs accounted for in other funds in accordance with budgetary
authorizations.
Interfund transfer activity for the year is as follows:

NOTE 10—LONG-TERM DEBT AND LEASES
General Obligation Bonds
The City issues general obligation bonds to provide funds for the acquisition and construction of
major capital facilities. General obligation bonds have been issued for governmental-type activities.
General obligation bonds are direct obligations and pledge the full faith and credit of the government.
General obligation bonds are either created by 3/5t majority vote of the people and, therefore,
financed by a special tax levy; or created by ordinance, adopted by the City Council, and normally
financed from general revenues (councilmanic bonds). General obligation bonds currently
outstanding are as follows:
In 2003 the City issued $9,430,000 in councilmanic bonds to finance the construction of the
CenterPlace Community Center and for various street construction projects. The City does expect to
receive intergovernmental payments from the Spokane Public Facilities District pursuant to an
interlocal agreement dated as of July 2003, which if and when received by the City will be available
for debt service associated with the Center for up to$7 million of bonds.
General obligation bonds currently outstanding are as follows:

Legal Debt Margin -
RCW 39.36.020 provides cities with three segments of debt capacity, each equal to two and one-half
percent of the city's assessed valuation, for a total debt capacity of seven and one-half percent.
The assessed valuation of the City for the year 2003 for purposes of determining the legal debt
margin is $4,409,259,851. Under State of Washington statutes general obligation indebtedness
pursuant to a vote of the electorate is limited to 2%% of actual value of taxable property located
within the City. Indebtedness without a vote of the people is limited to 1%% of actual value subject to
the limitation that total general purpose indebtedness may not exceed 2%% of total valuation. There
is a 2%% limitation each for utility purposes and open space and park facilities purposes.
The remaining debt capacities of the City are as follows:

NOTE 11 —SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On September 14, 2004 an election was held that annexed city fire protection to Fire District 1 and
Fire District 8. Those districts will assume responsibility for all city fire protection on January 1, 2005.
NOTE 12 - CONTINGENCIES AND LITIGATION
In the normal course of governmental operations the City has claims filed against it for various losses
related to tort actions for such things as wrongful acts, injuries, or damages for which a civil action
can be brought, and other routine legal proceedings. At any given point in time, there is a recurring
volume of tort and other claims for compensation and damages against the City, which could impact
expenditures. The City's Risk Management fund provides for these claims, and insurance is
available to pay a portion of damages for certain types of claims. The collective impact of these
claims is not likely to have a material impact on the City's financial position.
The City participates in a number of federal-and-state assisted programs. These grants are subject
to audit by the grantors or their representatives. Such audits could result in requests for
reimbursement to grantor agencies for expenditures disallowed under the terms of the grants. City
management does not believe that such disallowances, if any, will be material.
