I Why create a Task Force? • Our public health and public safety systems are not working effectively. • People suffering from behavioral health issues, mental illness, and substance use disorders, are not receiving the comprehensive or coordinated care they need. • Spokane's jail is overcrowded and understaffed, creating an unsafe facility for people incarcerated and staff. • Inadequate justice and treatment facilities, and an overburdened criminal justice system, exacerbates the challenges facing Spokane.

Always use caution when opening attachments or clicking links. 1. Meeting Date - 3-31-26 2. Victoria Robinson 3.City of Residence Spokane Valley 4. Social Equity Cannabis Retail Store Permit to Operate Comment: The Washington State Liquor Control Board has created and Implemented their first ever Merit Based Application for Social Equity Cannabis Retailers. A small selection of recipients have been awarded and if allowed in Spokane Valley, the program will contribute to an increase in minority owned businesses, create a job training program for minorities and allow for increases in Spokane Valley Cannabis Taxation. I encourage the council to allow for a current resident of Spokane Valley of whom was awarded a social equity retail certificate to be able to open alongside the recreational retail dispensaries that The Valley currently has. As of today, the moratorium prohibits social equity recipients from applying for a permit to operate. The comprehensive plan is an opportunity everyten years for the planning commission to amend the local cannabis rules. The Comprehensive Plan is due by year-end to the Department of Commerce for 2026. The time is now to increase marijuana taxation by adding social equity cannabis retailer(s). The taxation will ultimately help the greater good of the city. The Social Equity Cannabis Retail Program aligns with The Department of Commerce's goals for The Comprehensive Plans objectives to address racially disparaging impacts of communities throughout Washington State. I sincerely thank the council for all the hard work and implore you to address the social equity cannabis retailer license land use permit. 3.31.2026 Good evening Mayor Padden, Deputy Mayor Hattenburg, Councilmembers, and city leadership. My name is Ben Lund. I've been a Spokane Valley resident for 34 years and a local business owner serving this community for 26 years. I wanted to share a perspective following the discussion on the Performing Arts Center. There's been a lot of commentary around the decision, but it's important to keep one thing clear: this is exactly what responsible governance looks like. The proposal was discussed publicly, community input was taken, and the Council evaluated the financial risk before moving forward. In this case, the risk -to -reward balance —particularly with the City taking on roughly $28 million —was simply too high at this time. That's not a failure of process —that's the process working. At the same time, I do believe a Performing Arts Center would be a valuable addition to Spokane Valley. A "no" vote today doesn't mean "no" forever. If the proposal returns with stronger private financial backing and reduced reliance on taxpayer risk, I think it could absolutely be reconsidered. Many successful projects go through this kind of refinement before they move forward. In the meantime, I'd like to suggest a practical opportunity for Spokane Valley. Right now, Spokane has over a dozen disc golf courses (Frisbee), while Spokane Valley has one. That gap is an opportunity for Spokane Valley. We already have a successful cross-country course that draws people into our community. Building on that success, adding a disc golf course nearby would be a low-cost way to increase usage of an existing asset while giving Spokane Valley a competitive advantage. Disc golf continues to grow in popularity across the country, and many communities are using it to attract visitors and support local businesses. People will plan vacations around or for completion in this sport. With more people already coming to the cross-country course, this would be a simple way for our Parks and Recreation Department to expand activity, promote the area, and encourage longer visits. It's a practical step that builds on what we already do well —and positions Spokane Valley to compete more effectively in the regional recreation market. Thank you and all your effort to make Spokane Valley A great City. Nashington / Spokane golf courses in Spokane, Washington olf in Spokane.
