GOVERNING LEGISLATION: State budget law. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: No formal Council action has been taken on the 2012 Budget. BACKGROUND: This marks the fifth occasion where the Council has discussed the 2012 Budget and by the time the Council is scheduled to adopt the 2012 Budget on November 15, 2011, you will have had an opportunity to discuss it on eight separate occasions, including three public hearings to gather input from citizens: o June 14 Council Budget Retreat o August 9 Admin report: Estimated 2012 revenues and expenditures o August 23 Public hearing #1 on 2012 revenues and expenditures o September 6 City Manager's presentation of preliminary 2012 Budget o September 27 Public hearing #2 on 2012 Budget o October 11 Public hearing #3 on 2012 Budget o October 25 First reading on proposed ordinance adopting the 2012 Budget o November 15 Second reading on proposed ordinance adopting the 2012 Budget Each year City Staff prepare estimates of proposed revenues and expenditures for the next budget cycle. These estimates were presented to the Council on June 14th, August 9th and 23rd and again on September 6th in a presentation of the Preliminary 2012 Budget made by Mike Jackson. The purpose of this evenings meeting is to consider input from the public on the Proposed 2012 Budget, and we will hold a final public hearing on October 11th In regards to revenues, we anticipate they will be essentially flat across the board as the economy continues to tread water. As we have discussed with Council in past 2012 Budget presentations, Staff have prepared operating expenditure requests that reflect not greater than a 1% increase over the 2011 Budget. OPTIONS: State law requires this public hearing on the 2012 Proposed Budget. RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: No action is required at this time. BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: This information will be incorporated into the 2012 Budget. Given that the budget will not be adopted by the Council until November 15, 2011, it is possible the figures may be modified as we refine estimates of revenues and expenditures.

We responded that the Finance Department would study the figures and report back to the Council our findings. Based upon our research we noted that although the dollar figures reported for each year in each division was correct, the FTE figures reported were not. At the time the FTE portion of the budget was prepared in July, Finance Staff correctly updated the headers for the years to reflect 2010 Actual, 2011 Budget and 2012 Budget, but failed to also update the FTE figures. Consequently: • The FTE figures reported for 2010 Actual were in reality 2009 Actuals, and • The FTE figures reported for the 2011 Budget were in reality 2010 Budget I've attached a worksheet for each Community Development Division that reflects the FTE portion of the budget as reported in the 9/6/2011 version of the 2012 Budget document, as well as the corrected figures that are reflected in the 9/27/2011 version of the budget. Additionally, we've expanded the payroll information related to dollars to reflect each component of wages, benefits and payroll taxes. When reviewing the monetary information you'll note that the largest increases are reflected in: • The salary line-item which is a result of step and COLA increases. • The health insurance line item which is a result of health insurance premium increases of 9.6% in 2010 and 10.41% in 2011 (which were shared between the City and employees at the ratio of 60%:40%, respectively). • The PERS (retirement) line item which is a result of rate increases imposed by the Washington State Department of Retirement Systems. I hope this provides some clarity for yourself and the Council and apologize for the error. If you should have any questions or comments related to this matter please don't hesitate to ask. 11SV-FS21Usersimca lhounlBudgets1201212011 09 22 memo re Comm Dev Dept FTE vs PR budget.docx Page 1 \\SV-FS2\Users\mcalhoun\Budgets\2012\CD FTE Correction CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY, WA 9121!2011 2012 Budget Community Development - Planning Division FTE Correction Included in 916!2011 Preliminary Budget 2010 2011 2012 Actual Budget Budget Senior Planner 2.00 2.00 2.00 Planning Manager 1.00/ 1.00 1.00 Associate Planner '.01' 2.00 2.00 Assistant Planner 3.00 3.00 2.50 Planning Technician .04 1.00 1.00 9.00 9,00 8.50 !Corrected in 9/27/2011 Proposed Budget 2010 ;': 2011 L 2012 Actual 1 Budget Budget Senior Planner 2.00 2.00 2.00 Planning Manager 1.00 1.00 1.00 Associate Planner 2.00 2.00 2.00 Assistant Planner 3.00 2.50 2.50 Planning Technician 1.00 1.00 1.00 9.00 8.50 8.50 Wages/Benefits/Payroll Taxes Salary + OT 541,446 591,889 592,320 Social Security (401) 29,817 36,511 36,662 Health Insurance 111,170 126,486 132,176 Medicare 7,888 8,539 8,574 PERS 28,841 31,270 50,913 L 841 1,670 1,990 2,250 720,832 796,685 822,895 CD-Plan \\SV-F52\Users\mcalhaun\Budgets\2012\CD FTE Correction CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY, WA 9121/2011 2012 Budget Community Development - Development Engineering FTE Correction Included in 91612011 Preliminary Budget 2010 2011 2012 Actual Budget Budget Senior Engineer 1.00 1.00 1.00 Engineer 3.00 1.50 1.50 Assistant Engineer .00 1.00 0.00 Engineering Technician .1 2.50 1.50 Construction Inspector 0 1• 1.00 1.00 Office Assistant I .01 1.00 1.00 11.00 8.00 6.00 Corrected in 9/27/2011 Proposed Budget 2010 L 2011 2012 Actual , 1-- Budget Budget Senior Engineer 1.00 1.00 1.00 Engineer 1.50 1.50 1.50 Assistant Engineer 1.00 0.00 0.00 Engineering Technician 2.50 1.50 1.50 Construction Inspector 1.00 1.00 1.00 Office Assistant I 1.00 1.00 1.00 8.00 6.00 6.00 Wages/Benefits/Payroll Taxes Salary + OT 368,326 403,910 415,964 Social Security (401) 22,681 24,795 25,728 Health Insurance 68,458 89,541 96,102 Medicare 5,316 5,799 6,017 PERS 22,060 19,541 32,947 L&l 1,137 1,404 1,588 487,978 544,990 578,346 CD-Eng \\SV-FS2\Users\mcalhoun\Budgets\2012\CD FTE Correction CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY, WA 9/21/2011 , 2012 Budget Community Development-Building Division FTE Correction Included in 9/6/2011 Preliminary Budget 1 2010 ' 2011 2012 Actual Budget Budget Building Official 1.00 1.00 - 1.00 Building Inspector II 3.00 4.00 3.00 Code Enforcement Officer BP 2.00 2.00 2.00 Construction Inspector .00 1.00 0.00 Senior Permit Specialist .0 1.00 1.00 Permit Specialist 3.! _ 2.00 J 2.00 Senior Plans Examiner 1 40 1.00 1.00 Plans Examiner 4.00 0.75 0.75 Maint/Const Inspector (ROW) .00 1.00 1.00 Office Assistant 11 0.00 1.00 1,00 15.00 14.75 12.75 Corrected in 9/27/2011 Proposed Budget ;% 2010 /' 2011 /- 2012 ' Actual , Budget Budget Building Official 1.00 1.00 1.00 Building Inspector II 4.00 3.00 3.00 Code Enforcement Officer BP 2.00 2.00 2.00 Construction Inspector 1.00 0.00 0.00 Senior Permit Specialist 1.00 1.00 1.00 Permit Specialist 2.00 2.00 2.00 Senior Plans Examiner 1.00 1.00 1.00 Plans Examiner 0.75 0.75 0.75 Maint/Const Inspector(ROW) 1.00 1.00 1.00 Office Assistant I I 1.00 1.00 1.00 14.75 12.75 12.75 Salaries, wages & benefits $968,755 $999,983 $1,066,404 Wages/Benefits/Payroll Taxes Salary + OT 716,910 728,586 769,318 Social Security(401) 43,701 44,924 47,636 Health Insurance 150,835 166,327 164,871 Medicare 10,226 10,506 11,141 PERS 38,068 38,475 66,150 L&I 9,015 11,165 7,288 968,755 999,983 1,066,404 CD-Bldg City of Spokane Valley Proposed 2012 Budget Public Hearing No . 2 September 27 , 2011 2012 Budget Summary All Funds Total appropriations for all City Funds of $57.0 million including $11 .3 million in capital expenditures.

In a continuing trend of local and national economic challenge, the City of Spokane Valley has benefitted from a history of prudent financial decisions. Careful budgeting and restrained spending has left us almost unique among cities in providing a proposed balanced budget with neither service reductions nor tax increases. City Council has been heavily involved in the direction leading to this proposed budget by adopting strong, fiscally conservative policies and by working with staff throughout the process to ensure that both policy makers and administrative staff were in concert. Especially important to this process was a budget workshop on June 14, 2011. The draft budget worksheets were reviewed line by line and the impacts of proposed reductions were discussed in detail. The staff and Council solidified the basic fiscal policies (some carried over from 2011 and some new) which will determine the 2012 Budget and guide future spending practices. The Fiscal Policies adopted by the City Council are an extremely important element in this long range budget view. These policies appropriately dictate that if the economic situation deteriorates even more than anticipated, additional future reductions may be triggered. Such reductions were made in adopting the 2011 budget, and are not being restored. The current budget forecasts give us hope that future reductions or service cuts will not be necessary. That noted, elected officials and the staff remain committed to ensuring that service levels are commensurate with the revenue sources currently in place and to making adjustments if necessary to keep the City's finances healthy. The City also has reserves which may be needed in future years. With few exceptions for non- recurring expenses, we have not tapped into those reserves to balance our general fund. During each budget cycle, the City will review the reserve balance and determine if additional budget cuts will be more judicious than subsidizing the general fund through reserves. 9/27/11 Fiscal Policies Financial Management— The City proposes to: 1. Maintain basic service levels with reduced resources 2. Minimize personnel costs/overhead by continuing to contract for many services 3. Continue the 6-year Business Plan process 4. Leverage City funds with grant opportunities 5. Minimize City debt with a pay as you go philosophy • The State of Washington sets the maximum level of allowable debt for cities based on assessed value of property. The City of Spokane Valley currently utilizes only 1.52% of its total allowable debt capacity, and more importantly, only 7.61% of non-voted bond capacity. This is extremely low debt. Financial Objectives -The City's financial objectives through 2015 are: 1. Maintain a minimum general fund ending balance of 15% of revenues through 2015 2. Maintain the Service Level Stabilization Fund at the current level of $5.4 million through 2014 3. On an ongoing basis, transfer to the Street Capital Fund, 40% of the ending fund balance which exceeds $26 million. This will be done in the first quarter of each year following reconciliation of the previous year's books. This preserves the City's $26 million ending fund balance while also funding a portion of street capital projects from the General Fund. 4. Hold 2012 property taxes at essentially the same amount as the 2011 levy with no proposed increase in the levy other than for new construction. We anticipate this will result in a $10,808,900 levy in 2012. Commitment — By committing to these objectives, the City will ensure financial sustainability through 2015 and into the future. The City can achieve this by: 1. Capping 2012 recurring expenses to a maximum 1% increase over 2011. (Notably, 2012 expenditures have been reduced below 2011 levels). Challenges — Beyond the General Fund, the City of Spokane Valley has three primary financial concerns: 1. Funding the Street Preservation Plan to maintain City streets 2. Funding Street Capital projects 3. Funding Parks Capital projects ii 9/27/11 The new budget format for 2012 divides expenses into recurring and non-recurring categories. This was done to delineate the recurring or "ongoing" expenses of the City and to clearly show that current year recurring expenses are matched to current year revenues. Any/all use of the ending fund balance is specifically documented. Also, in deviation from the past, the 2012 proposed budget does not appropriate the ending fund balance in the general fund. This provides an added margin of security and will require formal council action to spend funds from the ending fund balance. Accompanied with this,we have proposed a 1% general fund contingency. Budget Highlights The 2012 Budget recognizes the economic realities of our times and the necessity to continue to operate within our financial means. The budget process has been used to reinforce the City's commitment to delivering its core services in a cost effective manner. A summary of key budget highlights for review by the Council and the community follows: Budget Reductions: Our 2012 General Fund budget recurring expenditures have decreased from 2011 by $164,186. This deserves recognition. We are essentially maintaining the same service levels - including no reduction in law enforcement - during a period of about 3.6 % inflation in June and July, while at the same time, we are funding important additions to our services such as the new 8 acre Greenacres City Park and televised council meetings. Staffing Levels: Staffing levels were reduced by 9.5 full-time and 2 temporary unfilled positions in 2011. For 2012 we remain at this same reduced level, operating a city of 90,1101 residents with a staff of 87.25 employees. Even taking into consideration that we contract for police services, and are served by Fire Districts and a Library District, we are operating substantially below the normal employee count for a major city. Cost of Living Adjustments: Union represented employees and employees who are not represented by the union- Local 270-V AFSME -will receive a 2.5% Cost of Living Adjustment in 2012. This amount was agreed to by the City in the 2010 — 2012 contract with union employees. The City has historically provided identical wage and benefit terms to non-represented employees; however, in 2011 non-represented employees did not receive an increase. The 2.5% matches the inflation trend over the past 20 years and was considered to be a prudent and reliable method of calculating cost of living increases and was preferred over a "floating" rate that would be determined each year. This methodology may change in future years. Street Capital Improvement Fund: Established in 2011, the current budgeted amount in this fund is $1,086,881. 1 Washington State Department of Financial Management,April 1,2011. 111 9/27/11 No Increase in Property Tax Levy: The City of Spokane Valley will hold its property tax levy equal with 2011. This decrease in the City's property tax levy is in recognition that the City understands the difficult financial times faced by our citizens. Moderate Growth in Current Operational Expenses: Investing in the essential core services identified by the Council and community creates baseline costs. Similar to the trend in most jurisdictions, costs and demands for service are growing while tax revenues are decreasing. Even with a relatively small city staff, quality service delivery requires ongoing investment in basic capacity to provide efficient operations. Moderate as it may be, operational expenses cannot continue to increase during declining or flat revenue. The City can either subsidize operational expenses with reserves, or husband their reserves and make additional budget reductions. Other Notable 2012 Budget Items Include: • The opening of Greenacres Park at Long and Boone in the spring of 2012 (paid for through direct appropriations of State funds and City capital funds). The 2012 budget reflects an increase of $100,000 to maintain this facility on an annual basis • Initiated by private citizens in 2010, the 2012 budget includes the first full year of televised City Council meetings with City equipment and contracted production costs of $46,000. The equipment was purchased through Comcast Public, Educational and Government funding. Public Safety Costs: In 2012, the Police, Court and Jail related services proposed budget is $22 million—an amount equal to 204% of anticipated property tax collections ($10,808,900) for the entire year. Council has made a commitment not to reduce public safety service levels and associated costs in 2012. iv 9/27/11 Progress on 2011 Budget Goals Include: • Continued Shoreline Master Program work as required by state law • Passage of HB 1922 requiring cattle trucks to go through the Washington Port of Entry • Support for Spokane Valley Partners in their successful bid for $100,000 from the Washington Legislature for a new sprinkler system in their facility • After reevaluation, the Sprague and Appleway Corridors Subarea Plan was removed from the Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan • Monitoring of the wastewater goal will be complete by the end of this year if Spokane County is issued their Wastewater permit • The multi-year winter roads maintenance plan has been implemented which included the purchase of equipment and a maintenance facility • A range of options was discussed for a city hall at or near CenterPlace Challenges: Grants and Declining Matching Funds: City staff actively pursues funding commitments from other sources to help pay the cost of needed capital improvements—roads, bridges and parks—that benefit the community. The 2011 capital construction program totaled $11,525,343 with $5,538,819 (48%) coming from outside sources. The 2012 budget projects a total capital construction budget of$11,263,685 with $7,755,118 (65%) coming from outside sources. When the City applies for state and federal grants, the City must provide its share (match) for these projects. In the past, Real Estate Excise Tax was used for most of the City match. However, during the last five years, this tax has declined from $2.5 million to $1 million, leaving a potential shortage of local match depending on availability of Federal, State and Local grants. Local Street Maintenance Combination of Funding: This fund derives its revenues from an allocation of the State Motor Fuel Tax distributed to cities and towns, and a 6% city tax on telephone usage, estimated in 2012 at$1,897,800 and $3,000,000 respectively. There is also an anticipated $2,004,874 Beginning Fund Balance that will carry over into 2012. Therefore, the combination of Fuel Tax and Telephone Utility Tax is able to meet the ongoing need for these funds to pay for street maintenance activities like snow plowing, pothole repair, resurfacing eroded lanes, sweeping, weed control, street lighting, traffic signals and a variety of other repairs/improvements. While Fuel Tax and Telephone Utility Tax cover annual street maintenance, they do not provide for implementation of the Street Master Plan and therein lies the challenge. v 9/27/11 In an attempt to determine how best to keep the surfaces and bases (underground support) of roads in proper condition, a Street Master Plan was prepared that itemizes the positive and negative conditions of our city street system, and identifies the repair needs and costs associated with maintaining our 437 miles of roadway. The report details the need for an additional annual investment of $4.3 million in street preservation work to keep the street system from deteriorating and triggering much more expensive repair work in the future. The Current Fiscal Year in Review The City purchased camera and broadcasting equipment and began televising Council meetings live via the Internet in 2011. The new system also stores council meetings on the City website for use by the citizens or staff. Residents and business people continue to provide city officials with their views on the broad range of issues related to economic development and land use regulations. A series of public meetings, Planning Commission meetings and Council actions were set in motion to review the Sprague/Appleway Revitalization Plan (SARP) and ultimately, the SARP was removed from the City's Comprehensive Plan. In addition, City codes such as signage, landscaping and others were reviewed to help support the development and retention of local business. The City also began exploring a more active role in the economic development of our City. The City Council welcomes public comments and works to balance the various interests expressed when enacting ordinances intended for the protection and enhancement of the quality of life in Spokane Valley. City representatives embrace continuous public participation, attend to a heavy workload, and take pleasure in achieving results that affect the community in positive ways. A review of the events and accomplishments of 2011 also reveals the following: • Funds were utilized from the Civic Facilities Fund to pay for full width paving and paving of gravel roads in conjunction with the County sewer projects in Spokane Valley. 2011 marked the last major construction year of the Septic Tank Replacement Program in Spokane Valley. • Council approved the purchase of a street and strormwater maintenance facility to house City operations. • Construction of a picnic shelter was completed in Terrace View Park. • Spokane Valley agreed to assist Airway Heights on an ongoing basis with plan reviews. • Several new businesses located in Spokane Valley in 2011. vi 9/27/11 The Budget for Fiscal Year 2012 Balanced Budget Adopted: One of the most important tests of fiscal management is the ability of a municipal enterprise to maintain basic services during an economic downturn. The creation and maintenance of financial reserves since incorporation have served their intended purpose and provided the opportunity for Spokane Valley to sustain critical public services during the turbulent economic conditions of 2011. The 2012 budget reflects a continuation of service delivery capabilities during difficult and uncertain economic times. The 2012 budget is in balance. Expenses have been balanced with known or reasonably predictable revenues. The budget is designed to maintain the healthy, positive fund balance at year end that provides for the city's cash flow needs without costly borrowing. In pursuit of fiscal responsibility, special attention was given to limiting the growth in new programs and financial commitments, while City revenue and expenditure patterns further fluctuate with the economy. This approach allows available resources to be put toward sustaining services that are consistent with the City Council's priorities for 2012 and beyond. Since incorporation, this City has taken a conservative approach to adding new staff. Spokane Valley continues to have the lowest employee count of any Washington city with 50,000 or more in population. A 2011 Work Force Comparison chart is included in the budget document. By all comparisons, the City of Spokane Valley is a lean, productive City government. Major Goal Statements for 2012: The 2012 budget reflects the distribution of resources consistent with the Council's core services priorities. The following goals, some of which are continued from 2011, represent broad areas of concentration important to the well being of the community: • Continue monitoring wastewater issues, including governance of wastewater facilities, and pursuit of the most efficient and economical methods to ensure the continuation of wastewater discharge licenses. • Pursue the topic of Solid Waste, to include identifying the issues and obtaining alternatives of joining the consortium or handling it ourselves and the consequences of each alternative. • Review and evaluate development regulations and compare with surrounding cities. • Develop a Shoreline Master Program to provide appropriate regulatory protection for waters of statewide significance as required by state statute. • Pursue a legislative capital budget request—to be identified. • Create an economic development plan including options for a new city hall. vii 9/27/11 Future Concepts: The budget process is not static and Council, the citizens, and staff must remain vigilant to watch for economic trends that impact current forecasts. Even as we adopt a 2012 budget, we must keep in mind the future economic opportunities and threats that may impact our multi-year forecast. An example of potential impacts and adaptive future concepts are as follows: • A commitment by Management to review all vacant positions prior to filling them. (In some cases, positions must be filled quickly due to workload.) • By all indications, the economic recovery of the U.S. and its collective states, counties and cities will be a slow and deliberate process. The City of Spokane Valley does not predict measureable growth in property tax or sales tax revenues through 2015 and we are budgeting with that in mind. • Because it represents about 63% of the General Fund budget, achieving future budget reductions without impacting Law Enforcement and other Public Safety services will be challenging. Acknowledgments: I would like to acknowledge the City Council and the Staff for a long history of conservative spending and prudent fiscal planning. The City of Spokane Valley is in an enviable position in relation to other Federal, State and local entities. We are not facing 2012 budget shortfalls. Although we must continue to budget and spend wisely, we do not have to make drastic cuts in services to balance our 2012 budget. By saving and conserving the taxpayers' money, and by adopting prudent long-term fiscal policies, the City can balance its budget for many years to come. This is something which is easy to say, but hard to do. Even harder is to forgo property tax increases in the face of declining revenues. However, the City Council felt this reduction was important to reflect to the citizens that we are a City that understands and appreciates the difficult economic times we all face together. Finally, I would like to say how rewarding it has been to work with the City Council and the staff in developing the budget, achieving substantial reductions and exceeding expectations for budget reductions in 2012. The City Council and the Finance Committee have set a path to ensure the long-term financial sustainability of the City. The management staff and employees have worked together to develop Business Plans and 2012 budget recommendations that achieve Council's goal of sustainability. We continue to demonstrate in difficult financial times that we can work together as an organization in the best interest of the citizens. Respectfully, Mike Jackson City Manager viii 9/27/11 SP1'11okane 410000 \TaIle 11707 E Sprague Ave Suite 106 • Spokane Valley WA 99206 509.921.1000 • Fax: 509.921.1008 • cityhall@spokanevalley.org TO: City Manager and Members of the City Council FROM: Mark Calhoun,Finance Director SUBJECT: About the 2012 Budget and Budget Development Process The budget includes the financial planning and legal authority to obligate public funds. Additionally, the budget provides significant policy direction by the City Council to the staff and community. As a result, the City Council, staff and public are involved in establishing the budget for the City of Spokane Valley. The budget serves four functions: 1. It is a Policy Document The budget functions as a policy document in that the decisions made within the budget will reflect the general principles or plans that guide the actions taken for the future.As a policy document,the budget makes specific attempts to link desired goals and policy direction to the actual day-to-day activities of the City staff. 2. It is an Operational Guide The budget of the City reflects its operation. Activities of each City function and organization have been planned, debated, formalized, and described in the following sections. This process will help to maintain an understanding of the various operations of the City and how they relate to each other and to the attainment of the policy issues and goals of the City Council. 3. It is a Link with the General Public The budget provides a unique opportunity to allow and encourage public review of City operations. The budget describes the activities of the City,the reason or cause for those activities,future implications, and the direct relationship to the citizenry. 4. It is a Legally Required Financial Planning Tool The budget is a financial planning tool, which has been its most traditional use. In this light, preparing and adopting a budget is a State law requirement of all cities as stated in Title 35A of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW). The budget must be adopted as a balanced budget and must be in place prior to the beginning of the City's fiscal year. The budget is the legal authority to expend public moneys and controls those expenditures by limiting the amount of the appropriation at the fund level. The revenues of the City are estimated, along with available cash carry-forward,to indicate funds available. The budget takes into account unforeseen contingencies and provides for the need for periodic adjustments. 1 9/27/11 2012 BUDGET DEVELOPMENT PROCESS The City of Spokane Valley operates on a calendar year basis. We utilize an incremental budgeting approach that assumes, for most functions of government, that the current year's budget is indicative of the base required for the following year. Any increases are incremental and based on need defined by the organization's budget policies,emerging issues,Council goals,and available resources. The 2012 Budget development process began at the February 8, 2011 Council Retreat where among other topics, Council and Staff discussed the budget in general terms. In early April 2011 the Finance Department notified City Departments that their 2012 revenue and expenditure estimates were due by May 6. Through the balance of May and early June, the Finance Department then worked to prepare budget worksheets that were communicated to the City Council at a Budget Retreat held on June 14, 2011. Following the retreat,the Finance Department continued work on the budget including refinements of revenue and expenditure estimates and through July and early August the Finance Department and City Manager reviewed updated budget projections. By the time the 2012 Budget is scheduled to be adopted on November 15, 2011,the Council will have had an opportunity to discuss it on eight separate occasions, including three public hearings to gather input from citizens: June 14 Council Budget Retreat August 9 Administrative Report: Estimated 2012 revenues and expenditures August 23 Public hearing on 2012 revenues September 6 City Manager's presentation of preliminary 2012 Budget September 27 Public hearing#1 on 2012 Budget October 11 Public hearing#2 on 2012 Budget October 25 First reading of proposed ordinance adopting the 2012 Budget November 15 Second reading of proposed ordinance adopting the 2012 Budget Once adopted,the final operating budget is published,distributed,and made available to the public during the first three months of the following year. After the budget is adopted, the City enters a budget implementation and monitoring stage. Throughout the year, expenditures are monitored by the Finance Department and department directors to ensure that funds are within the approved budget. Finance provides the City Council with monthly reports to keep them current with the City's financial condition. Any budget amendments made during the year are adopted by City Council ordinance. The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts within a fund; however, any revisions that alter the total expenditures of a fund, or that affect the number of authorized employee positions, salary ranges or other conditions of employment must be approved by the City Council. When the City Council determines that it is in the best interest of the City to increase or decrease the appropriation for a particular fund, it may do so by ordinance adopted by Council after holding one public hearing. 2 9/27/11 BUDGET PRINCIPLES • Department directors have primary responsibility for formulating budget proposals in line with City Council and City Manager priority direction,and for implementing them once they are approved. • The Finance Department is responsible for coordinating the overall preparation and administration of the City's budget. This function is fulfilled in compliance with applicable State of Washington statutes governing local government budgeting practices. • The Finance Department assists department staff in identifying budget problems, formulating solutions and alternatives,and implementing any necessary corrective actions. • Interfund charges will be based on recovery of costs associated with providing those services. • Budget adjustments requiring City Council approval will occur through the ordinance process at the fund level prior to fiscal year end. • The City's budget presentation will be directed at displaying the City's services plan in a Council/constituent friendly format. • Short term debt shall not exceed 10% of revenues. No long term debt will be incurred without identification of a revenue source to repay the debt. Long term debt will be incurred for capital purposes only. • The City will strive to maintain equipment replacement funds in an amount necessary to replace the equipment at the end of its useful life. Life cycle assumptions and required contributions will be reviewed annually as part of the budget process. New operations in difficult economic times may make it difficult to fund this principle in some years. • The City will pursue an ending general fund balance at a level of no less than 15%of revenue. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING AND BUDGETING Accounting Accounting records for the City are maintained in accordance with methods prescribed by the State Auditor under the authority of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW), Chapter 43.09.20, and in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles as set forth by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. Basis of Presentation-Fund Accounting The accounts of the City of Spokane Valley are organized on the basis of funds,each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. Each fund is accounted for with a separate set of double-entry accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues and expenditures or expenses, as appropriate. The City's resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds depending on their intended purpose. The following are the fund types used by the City of Spokane Valley: Governmental Fund Types Governmental funds are used to account for activities typically associated with state and local government operations. All governmental fund types are accounted for on a spending or "financial flows" measurement focus, which means that typically only current assets and current liabilities are included on related balance sheets. The operating statements of governmental funds measure changes in financial position,rather than net income. They present increases(revenues and other fmancing sources) and decreases (expenditures and other 3 9/27/11 financing uses) in net current assets. There are four governmental fund types used by the City of Spokane Valley: 1. General Fund This fund is the primary fund of the City of Spokane Valley. It accounts for all financial resources except those required or elected to be accounted for in another fund. 2. Special Revenue Funds These funds account for revenues that are legally restricted or designated to finance particular activities of the City of Spokane Valley. Special Revenue funds include the Street Fund, Arterial Street Fund, Trails & Paths Fund, Hotel/Motel Fund, CenterPlace Operating Reserve Fund, Service Level Reserve Fund, Civic Facilities Reserve Fund,and Winter Weather Reserve Fund. 3. Debt Service Funds These funds account for financial resources which are designated for the retirement of debt. Debt Service Funds are comprised of the Debt Service LTGO 03. 4. Capital Project Funds These funds account for financial resources, which are designated for the acquisition or construction of general government capital projects. Capital Project Funds include the Capital Project Fund, Special Capital Projects Fund, Streets Capital Projects Fund, CDBG Fund, Capital Grants Fund, Barker Bridge Federal Grant Fund,and Parks Capital Projects Fund. Proprietary Fund Types Proprietary funds are used to account for activities similar to those found in the private sector where the intent of the governing body is to finance the full cost of providing services, including depreciation, which based on the commercial model uses a flow of economic resources approach. Under this approach, the operating statements for the proprietary funds focus on a measurement of net income (revenues and expenses) and both current and non-current assets and liabilities are reported on related balance sheets. Their reported fund equity (net total assets) is segregated into contributed capital and retained earnings components.As described below,there are two generic fund types in this category: 1. Enterprise Funds These funds account for operations that provide goods or services to the general public and are supported primarily by user charges. The Stormwater Management Fund is included in this group of funds. 2. Internal Service Funds These funds account for operations that provide goods or services to other departments or funds of the City. The Equipment Rental and Replacement Fund and Risk Management Fund are included in this group of funds. Basis of Accounting Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. The City of Spokane Valley uses a modified accrual basis of accounting for all governmental funds. Modified accrual recognizes revenues when they become both measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current period. The basis of accounting for enterprise and internal service funds is full accrual where revenues and expenses are recognized in the period incurred rather than when cash is either received or disbursed. The appropriate basis is used throughout the budgeting, accounting,and reporting processes. 4 9/27/11 In this method, for example, an asset is depreciated as it is "used up," and the expense is recognized in periodic increments, rather than assuming the asset holds its value until it is actually disposed of. However, since the focus of budgeting is on the revenue and expense accounts, depreciation and amortization are not considered budgetary accounts,and are excluded from the budgeting system. Budgets and Budgetary Accounting Annual appropriated budgets are adopted for all funds. These funds are budgeted on the modified cash basis of accounting. The financial statements include budgetary comparisons for those funds. Budgets are adopted at the fund level that constitutes the legal authority for expenditures. Annual appropriations for all funds lapse at the fiscal period end. EXPLANATION OF MAJOR REVENUE SOURCES General Fund • Property Tax Property taxes play an essential role in the finances of the municipal budget. State law limits the City to a $3.60 levy per $1,000 assessed valuation, deducting from there the levy of$1.50 by the Spokane County Fire Districts #1 and #8, along with deducting $0.50 for library levies, which leaves the City with the authority to levy $1.60 for its own purposes. The levy amount must be established by ordinance by November 30th prior to the levy year. • Local Retail Sales and Use Tax The local retail sales and use tax is comprised of two separate .5% options for a total of 1.0%. The Washington State Department of Revenue disburses 15% of the City sales tax to Spokane County, and 85%to the City. • Criminal Justice Sales Tax Local Sales Tax for Criminal Justice funding is to be used solely for criminal justice purposes, such as the City's law enforcement contract. This tax is authorized at 1/10 of 1% of retail sales transacted in the County. Of the total amount collected, the State distributes 10% of the receipts to Spokane County, with the remainder allocated on a per capita basis to the County and cities within the County. • Public Safety Sales Tax Beginning in 2005, an additional .1% voter approved increase in sales tax was devoted to public safety purposes. This .1%was approved by the voters again in August 2009. Of the total amount collected,the State distributes 60% of the receipts to Spokane County, with the remainder allocated on a per capita basis to the cities within the County. • Gambling Tax Gambling tax revenues must be spent primarily on law enforcement purposes pertaining to gambling. Funds remaining after necessary expenditures for such enforcement purposes may be used for any general government purpose. Gambling taxes are to be paid quarterly to the City, no later than the last day of January, April, July and October. The City imposes a tax on the following forms of gambling at the following rates: Bingo (5% gross, less prizes); Raffles (5% gross, less prizes); Games (2% gross, less prizes); Card playing (10% gross). • Leasehold Excise Tax Taxes on property owned by state or local governments and leased to private parties(City's share). 5 9/27/11 • Franchise Fees Cable TV is the only franchise fee levied in the City at a rate of 5%of gross revenues. This is a fee levied on private utilities for the right to use city streets,alleys,and other public properties. • State-Shared Revenues State-shared revenues are received from liquor sales, and motor vehicle excise taxes. These taxes are collected by the State of Washington and shared with local governments based on population. State- shared revenues are distributed on either a monthly or quarterly basis, although not all quarterly revenues are distributed in the same month of the quarter. • The 2011 population figure used in the 2012 Preliminary Budget is 90,110 as reported by the Office of Financial Management for Washington State on April 1,2011. This figure is important when determining distribution of State shared revenues on a per capita basis. • Liquor Board Profits and Liquor Excise Tax Since cities are responsible for the policing of liquor establishments located within their limits, but are precluded from taxing them because of the State liquor monopoly, State law provides that a share of the State-collected profits and taxes be returned to cities to help defray policing costs. Liquor Board profits consist of the difference between revenue generated by the Washington State Liquor Control Board and the board's expenditures, specific revenues collected for a dedicated purpose, and administrative fees attributable to specific licensees that serve hard alcohol. Revenues are generated from sales at State liquor stores, taxes collected on wine and beer manufacture and distribution, licensee fees, alcohol related permit fees, penalties, and forfeitures. Liquor profits are divided among the State, counties and cities. Cities get a 40% share, with additional amount distributed to border area cities. These funds are distributed on the last days of March,June, September and December. • Cities also receive 28% of the liquor excise tax receipts. These funds are distributed on the last days of January,April,July and October. • Service Revenues Fees are charged for services rendered by the City of Spokane Valley. Most of the fees in the General Fund are construction inspections and permits related to services such as planning,zoning and building. • Fines and Forfeitures Fines and penalties are collected as a result of Municipal Court rulings and other miscellaneous rule infractions. All court fines and penalties are shared with the State, with the City, on average, retaining less than 50%of the amount collected. • Recreation Program Fees The Parks and Recreation Department charges fees for selected recreation programs. These fees offset direct costs related to providing the program. • CenterPlace Fees The Parks and Recreation Department charges fees for use of CenterPlace. Uses include regional meetings, weddings, receptions and banquets. Rental rooms include classrooms, the great room and dining rooms. 6 9/27/11 • Investment Interest The City earns investment interest on sales tax money held by the State of Washington prior to their distribution of the taxes to the City as well as on City initiated investments. Street Fund • Motor Vehicle Fuel Excise Tax(gas tax) The State of Washington collects a $.3750 per gallon motor vehicle fuel tax at the pump and remits $.0296 of the tax back to cities based on population. In 2012 the Municipal Research and Services Center estimates the per capita distribution back to cities will be $21.15 per person. Based upon a City of Spokane Valley population of 90,110 (per the Washington State Office of Financial Management on April 1, 2011)we anticipate the City will collect $1,905,800 in 2012. With the exception of.42% of the collections which must go towards paths and trails activities, all motor vehicle fuel taxes are credited to the Street Fund. • Telephone Utility Tax The City of Spokane Valley levied a 6% telephone utility tax via Ordinance #08-014 with collections beginning in 2009. Companies providing this service pay the tax to the City monthly. Telephone tax has been estimated at$3 million for 2011. Paths& Trails Fund Cities are required to spend .42% of the motor vehicle fuel tax receipts on paths and trails. Because the amount collected in any given year is relatively small it is typical to accumulate State distributions for several years until adequate dollars are available for a project. Hotel/Motel Tax Fund The City imposes a 2% tax under RCW 67.28.180 on all charges made for the furnishing of lodging at hotels, motels, and similar establishments (including bed and breakfasts and RV parks) for a continuous period of less than one month. The tax is taken as a credit against the 6.5 percent state sales tax, so that the total tax that a patron pays in retail sales tax and hotel/motel tax combined is equal to the retail sales tax in the jurisdiction. The revenues generated by this tax may be used solely for paying for tourism promotion and for the acquisition and/or operation of tourism-related facilities. Debt Service Fund—LTGO 03: The City issued$9,430,000 in limited tax general obligation bonds(LTGO)in 2003. Of this total: • $7,000,000 of the proceeds were used to finance the construction of CenterPlace at Mirabeau Point. These bonds will be paid off in annual installments over the 30-year period ending December 1, 2033. Annual debt service payments on these bonds are provided by the Spokane Public Facilities District. • $2,430,000 of the proceeds were used to finance Road and Street Improvements near CenterPlace. These bonds will be paid off in annual installments over the 20-year period ending December 1, 2023.

SIGNIFICANT ASSUMPTIONS IN THE 2012 BUDGET Budget Summary for All Funds • The 2012 budget presumes service levels that are consistent with those provided in 2011 with neither significant enhancements nor reductions in any area of operations. • Total appropriations for all City Funds of$57.0 million including$11.3 million in capital expenditures. • Budgets will be adopted across 21 separate funds. • The budget will include a new Aquifer Protection Area Fund. • The full-time equivalent(FTE)employee count will remain unchanged from 2011 at 87.25 employees. • 2012 operating expenditures have been held at or below 1%over 2011. • Positions and salary ranges are based on the City's compensation and classification plan. • Employee benefit amounts are based on employee benefit plans. • Contract costs for public safety,park maintenance,aquatics and street maintenance are based on estimates by City staff. • State required retirements costs(PERS)are included in the budget and additionally the City has set aside $50,000 to offset future State required increases. • The Street Fund budget includes an additional$500,000 for street preservation plus an additional $100,000 to be set aside for future replacements of snow plows. 2012 General Fund Revenues • Total recurring 2012 revenues are estimated at$34,908,800 as compared to $34,827,125 in 2011. • The two largest sources of revenue continue to be Sales Tax and Property Tax which are collectively estimated to account for 77%of 2012 General Fund revenues. • Sales Tax is estimated at$16.2 million which is identical to 2011. • The Property Tax levy will not include the 1%increase authorized by the voters in November 2001 through their approval of Initiative #747 and the subsequent action by the State Legislature in November 2007. o The 2012 levy is estimated at$10,808,900. o The levy assumes we start with the 2011 levy of$10,732,863 and add taxes related to new construction of$76,083. o Based upon a tax levy of$10,808,900 on assessed values of$7,108,291,375 (the most recent figure provided by the Spokane County Assessor's Office)the 2012 levy rate would be $1.5206 per$1,000 of assessed value. • Franchise fees and business registrations are primarily based on projected receipts in 2011. 9 9/27/11 • Liquor excise taxes and Liquor Board profits are based upon per capita distribution figures reported by the Municipal Research and Services Center. Initiative #1183 that will come before the voters of Washington State on November 8,2011 seeks to privatize the distribution and sale of liquor in Washington. It is believed the initiative will have no impact on liquor excise taxes and based upon a fiscal impact statement prepared by the Washington Office of Financial Management it appears 2012 Liquor Board profits will not be impacted either. • Fines and forfeitures are estimated by Spokane Valley and based on historical collections. • Building permit and land use fees are estimated by Spokane Valley and based on historic collections. 2012 General Fund Expenditures • The total recurring 2012 expenditure budget is$34,660,900 as compared to $34,825,086 in 2011. This reflects a decrease of$164,186. If expenditures had increased by 1%they would have grown by $348,251 and this coupled with the actual decrease of$164,186 means the budget is$512,437 less than our goal of no more than a 1%increase. • The 2012 budget presumes service levels that are consistent with those provided in 2011 with neither significant enhancements nor reductions in any area of operations. • 2012 Nonrecurring expenditures are $189,000 as compared to $2.8 million in 2011. o Included in 2012 are: • A$346,600 Contingency/Emergency appropriation that is approximately equal to 1%of recurring expenditures. This money would only be expended with prior approval of the Council. • An $89,000 transfer to Fund#303—Street Capital Projects Fund. • A$100,000 transfer to Fund#309—Parks Capital Projects Fund. o Included in 2011 were: • $1.5 million in transfers for the full paveback program. • $1.084 million in transfers for street preservation. • $146,000 for building permit software. Other Funds • Motor vehicle fuel tax(MVFT)revenue that is collected by the State and remitted to the City is estimated to be $1,905,800 according to per capita estimates provided by the Municipal Research and Services Center. Of this amount, $1,897,800 will be credited to the Street O&M Fund and.42%or$8,000 to the Paths and Trails Fund. • Telephone taxes that are remitted to the City and support Street Fund operations and maintenance are anticipated at$3,000,000. • Real estate excise tax(REET)revenue is computed by the City and is primarily used to match grant funded street projects as well as pay a portion of the annual payment on the 2003 general obligation bonds. In 2012 we estimate these revenues to be $950,000. • Hotel/Motel tax revenues are computed by the City and are dedicated to the promotion of visitors and tourism. In 2012 we estimate these revenues to be $430,000. • The Stomwater Management Fee is based on an equivalent residential unit(ERU)that is equal to 3,160 square feet of impervious surface that is billed at a rate of$21 per single family residence and$21 per ERU for commercial properties(an ERU for a commercial property is computed as total square feet of impervious surface divided by 3,160). 10

Council authorized the City Manager to execute interlocal agreement C09-157 on September 8, 2009. BACKGROUND: The attached interlocal agreement is between Spokane County and the City of Spokane Valley. The agreement allows the Spokane County Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) department to retain the City's state-issued CTR funds in return for developing, implementing, and administering CTR plans and ordinances for all affected employers within the City of Spokane Valley. This agreement replaces the previous agreement, C09-157, which expired on June 30, 2011. The agreement is for two years and expires on June 30, 2013. There are no substantive changes from the previous agreement. The legal department has reviewed the agreement. OPTIONS: 1.) Authorize the agreement; 2.) request changes or more information; 3.) Have the City assume responsibility for overseeing the CTR programs for all affected employers in the City. RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Move to authorize the City Manager to execute the Interlocal Agreement with Spokane County for the provision of Commute Trip Reduction Services. BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The County would retain the City's state funds of $62,390.17. If the agreement is not approved the City would have to dedicate these funds to the CTR program and administer the CTR programs of all affected employers in Spokane Valley.

WITNESSETH WHEREAS, the Washington State Legislature has adopted legislation codified in RCW 70.94.521 through 551, the purpose of which is to improve air quality, improve transportation system efficiency and reduce the consumption of petroleum fuels through employer-based programs that encourage the use of alternatives to the single occupant vehicle for commute trips and reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMT); and WHEREAS, RCW 70.94.527 requires counties containing urban growth areas and cities and towns with "major employers," that are located within urban growth areas with a state highway segment exceeding the threshold of one hundred person hours of delay or jurisdictions that are located in contiguous urban growth areas, or are within an urban growth area with a population greater than seventy thousand people that adopted an ordinance before the year 2000 or jurisdictions that are located in contiguous urban growth areas, or contain a major employment installation in an affected county to develop ordinances, plans and programs to reduce Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) and Single Occupant Vehicle (SOV) commute trips, and thereby reduce vehicle-related air pollution, traffic congestion and energy use, and WHEREAS, the County and each affected city within Spokane County have adopted Commute Trip Reduction Ordinances and must implement a Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) Plan for all major employers; and WHEREAS, the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) Public Transportation Division is responsible for administering funds on behalf of the state Legislature and is desirous of making available to Spokane County certain funds and requiring Spokane County to enter into agreements through the Interlocal Cooperation Act or by Resolution or Ordinance as appropriate with other jurisdictions, local transit agencies, or regional transportation planning organizations to coordinate the development, implementation and administration of CTR Plans and Ordinances as described in RCW 70.94.521-551; and Intergovernmental Agreement, CTR Page 1 of 11 DRAFT WHEREAS, Spokane County has entered into an agreement with WSDOT under Agreement No. GCA6900, hereinafter referred to as "WSDOT Agreement," pursuant to which Spokane County is eligible to receive a reimbursable amount of funds which the County will distribute to itself and cities to implement and administer CTR Plans and Ordinances; and WHEREAS, Spokane County has allocated $62,390.17 to the City from the Agreement No. GCA6900 which the City is now desirous of making available to the County to perform those tasks which are the responsibility of the City. NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual promises set forth hereinafter, and as authorized under chapter RCW 70.94.527 (5), the parties hereto do mutually agree as follows: Section 1: PURPOSE The County has entered into a WSDOT Agreement with the WSDOT under which it will receive $367,001 for two years. This funding is to be allocated to the County and cities within Spokane County for their use in the implementation and administration of their CTR Plans and Ordinances. The County, based upon an allocation formula established by the WSDOT, has determined that the City shall receive $62,390.17 from the WSDOT Agreement from which it shall perform certain tasks. The City agrees to its proportionate share of the monies made available to the County in the WSDOT Agreement and agrees to allow Spokane County to retain its proportionate share in consideration of the County performing those tasks as more particularly set forth in Attachment "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. In conjunction with allowing the County to retain its proportionate share of monies, the City will execute any and all necessary documents which may be required by the WSDOT. It is understood by the parties hereto, that in order for the County to perform those tasks as set forth in Attachment "A" for the City, the City must perform certain tasks. Attached hereto as Attachment "B" and incorporated herein by reference, is a listing of tasks which the City agrees to perform in conjunction with the County performing those tasks set forth in Attachment ,,A.,, Section 2: DURATION The County agrees to provide those tasks set forth in Section 1 and complete performing such tasks on or before June 30, 2013. Section 3: TERMINATION The parties agree that this Agreement may be terminated by either party for material breach of any provision set forth herein, upon ninety (90) days advance written notice to the other party at the address set forth hereinabove. Provided, however, the parties agree that any notification of termination shall set forth the specific provision(s) for which such notification is being provided and additionally, advise that if such default is cured within such ninety (90) day time frame, said termination notification shall be of no force and effect. Intergovernmental Agreement, CTR Page 2 of 11 DRAFT In the event of termination, the County agrees to provide to the City all written documentation which it has completed to the date of termination under the terms of this Agreement. Additionally, the County agrees to return to the City that portion of the monies set forth in Section 1 hereinabove, which has not been expended by the county, prior to the date of termination, on the City's behalf in providing those tasks as set forth in Attachment "A." Provided, further, the parties recognize that the WSDOT in Agreement No. GCA6900, has retained the right to unilaterally terminate all or a part of such contract if there is a reduction of funds from the funding source. Accordingly, in the event that the WSDOT terminates all or part of the WSDOT Agreement with Spokane County, and such action affects the allocation of funds by the County to the City herein, and/or modifies the tasks to be performed hereunder, the parties will immediately meet to renegotiate the provisions of this Agreement. Section 4: DESIGNATION OF ADMINISTRATOR The County hereby designated Ms. Aurora J. Crooks, the Spokane County Transportation Demand Management Manager, as its designee for the purpose of administering and coordinating the County's responsibilities under the terms of this Agreement. Section 5: ACQUISITION/DISPOSITION OF PROPERTY The parties hereto agree that any real or personal property acquired by the County with those monies made available to the County by the City under Section 1 hereinabove shall be and remain the sole property of the County upon acquisition and/or termination of this Agreement. Section 6: COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS The County agrees to observe all applicable federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations including, but no necessarily limited to, the Americans with Disabilities Act and chapter 49.60 RCW, to the extent that they may have any bearing on performing those tasks for the City as set forth in Section 1 hereinabove. Additionally, the County agrees to comply with all applicable funding audit requirements of WSDOT in conjunction with performing those tasks for the City. The County agrees to make available to the City or its duly authorized representative during normal County business hours and all records which it has kept in conjunction with providing those services for the City as set forth herein above.

Intergovernmental Agreement, CTR Page 11 of 11 DRAFT MINUTES SPOKANE VALLEY CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL MEETING Monday,August 15,2011 6:00 p.m. Spokane Valley City Hall, Council Chambers 11707 E Sprague Avenue, Spokane Valley, WA 99206 Attendance: Councilmembers Staff Tom Towey,Mayor Mike Jackson,City Manager Gary Schimmels,Deputy Mayor Cary Driskell,City Attorney Bill Gothmann,Councilmember Mark Calhoun,Finance Director Dean Grafos,Councilmember Mike Stone,Parks and Recreation Director Brenda Grassel,Councilmember Neil Kersten,Public Works Director Chuck Hafner,Councilmember John Hohman,Community Development Dir. Arne Woodard,Councilmember Lori Barlow, Senior Planner Carolbelle Branch,Public Information Officer Chris Bainbridge,City Clerk Mayor Towey opened the meeting at approximately 6:00 p.m. City Clerk Bainbridge called the roll;all councilmembers were present. ACTION ITEM: 1. Proposed Ordinance 11-011 for Ballot Bond Issue—Cary Driskell After City Clerk Bainbridge read the ordinance title, it was moved by Councilmember Grafos and seconded to adopt Ordinance 11-011 placing on the November 8, 2011 ballot, the issue of converting Sprague/Appleway from one-way to two-way traffic between Dishman/Argonne and University Roads, including bonds to fund the same. City Attorney Driskell explained that council requested staff prepare ballot language to submit to the voters of the city, concerning whether Sprague and Appleway should be converted to two-way traffic between Dishman/Argonne eastward to University Road, which he said is approximately one mile. Mr. Driskell said the anticipated work would include road, stormwater and landscaping improvements, enhanced pedestrian and bicycle access for economic development and community enhancement; that the anticipated cost of the bonds would be $6.4 million which he explained, does not include the cost of processing the bonds,which is normally calculated at 2%, making the total cost$6,528,000;he also mentioned that figure is subject to change depending on council's desire tonight. Mayor Towey invited public comment. Don Meyer, 3910 S. Eagle Lane: said he is here to recap the whole concept of why it was changed in the first place; said the original Sprague concept for the bypass was the relief of unacceptable traffic congestion; and the results of that actually exceeded almost everyone's expectations as the traffic problem is nonexistent; he said they did an extremely effective job with what he termed was likely one of the first landscaping projects in the Valley and said that corridor was something to be very proud of; now he said it appears that a very few people don't want that couplet changed since it took care of the problem it was set up to do; and said there are a few who want to change it back to two-way traffic, for either business or property interests; he said some businesses benefitted by the bypass and some have not, and said there is no way to satisfy 100% of the people's needs; and he said those who did not benefit don't know for a fact, that the couplet caused their problems. He said some businesses that left did so when it was two- way, such as Payless, University East, University West, and numerous smaller shops. He mentioned that the area of Pines and Sprague is very busy, and he brought up the vacated Albertson's store, which was Minutes Special Council Meeting 08-15-2011 Page 1 of 7 Approved by Council: DRAFT located on a two-way area; and asked if we are expecting a miracle because we are going to change it back to a two-way street; he said the Valley started moving north and east about twenty-five years ago;he said he doesn't think that$6 million for one mile will guarantee any improvement in business in that area. Mayor Towey reminded Mr. Meyer that the issue before Council tonight is whether to place this matter on the November ballot, and not the one-way or two-way issue. Mr.Meyer asked Council not to put it on the ballot; he said there were hundreds of thousands of dollars spent analyzing this and many of his neighbors feel putting this on the ballot is a waste of time and money, and he recommended not wasting any more. Tony Lazanis, 10626 E Empire: said he and Frank Tombari chaired the Transportation Committee for fifteen years,and two or less lanes going east has been brought up quite a few times in the name of safety; and said if council finds that feasible,he hopes council does that; and put out a special light in front of the fire department, and have the back lane on the other side; maybe put one or two lanes going east, they could go around back and turn around and make it a business route. Debbie Ellis, 6303 S Chestercreek Lane: she asked council to consider changing the entire couplet to two- way and not put it on the ballot; and asked that it not stop the one-way at Dishman Mica; said she commutes daily at Dishman Mica, and coming down Dishman Mica is two-lanes, 35-45 miles per hour; and when traffic gets to Sprague it branches off with some going to Sprague and some going to Argonne; she said there is no reason to have that amount of traffic to go on to five lanes of traffic and spread out and still go the same speeds; she said that creates a funnel out of the Spokane Valley and said they call it the "I-90 on-ramp." She said that anyone traveling west on Sprague can see the consequences of the one- way on the local businesses with numerous empty buildings on both sides;but as soon as you cross under the overpass,which goes back to two-way,you see new businesses springing up everywhere;and she said that section of Sprague is a stark contrast to the "ghost-town" on the other side; she said the landscaping of big bushy trees hide a good portion of the business signs blocking the names of the businesses; and a trip around the block with all left-turns with no left-turn signals, can last five to ten minutes; she said she owns Empire Cycle and Power Sports and said they do a count of people coming in and they ask how people find out about their business; she said a large percentage say it's a drive-by but it took them several times past the business to get into a lane to be able to get to the business; she said the main reason she is here tonight it because of Ross Kelly's report on the traffic counts about traffic decreasing from 34,683 cars daily to 15,100 cars daily; she said if going from two-way to one-way did that to the traffic and what it did to the businesses, why would we want to keep it. She asked council to please consider bringing back the two-way streets the whole length of Sprague, and not penalize the businesses just because a few think saving thirty seconds is worth having Sprague a large on-ramp to the freeway; she said the one-way couplet was done without a vote, and she asked Council not to spend the money to put it to a vote,but to just do it for the good of the city,and don't leave any part of it,one-way. Dan Allison, N 12303 Warren Road: he said he doesn't care if the road is one or two-way; he said he thinks it should go on the ballot but not with a dollar amount included; and if it passes, then put it on again;he said he realizes that would cost a little more,but it would squelch all the people regarding which way; he said it's already started with the $4.2 million that popped up here in the last couple of days or so, and the $300,000 fine if the grant money doesn't get taken; and said he looks at the staff and said he really wonders if they are trying to torpedo the elections that are coming up; he said Mr. Dick Behm has already taken the shot, it was in the Valley Voice about the $4.2 million or the $300,000 we would be throwing away;he said that City Engineer Worley told him just before this meeting,that Council all knew about the $4.2 million, except maybe the two newer councilmembers; and said for that to come out now just before the election,just before this will go on the ballot, and said for the staff to say that they did not know anything about it; he said our city attorney, city manager, public works department, planning department all should have known about it,and said he thinks they all did know about it. He said it really irritates him to see this stuff pop up like this in this little city, to try to torpedo something that was voted Minutes Special Council Meeting 08-15-2011 Page 2 of 7 Approved by Council: DRAFT in by the people with the positive change group in here; he said we should put it on the ballot, no dollar amount,and let's get this thing killed and done with so we can move on and make a plan. City Manager Jackson said that although it is not his practice to respond to public comments, he wanted to reinforce that this is council's idea to place this on the ballot and that he is sure council will confirm that; and secondly, that all of the information regarding the $4.2 million has been before council as early as over a year ago when this discussion came up; and said he would be happy to meet off-line with any citizen; and said again that this is not a staff directed issue, and that the information absolutely has been available as part of the presentation from the beginning. Steven Neill, 10820 E. 18th Avenue: said he was very surprised that those who supported SARP are crying foul as the city council considers putting this issue on the ballots;he said instead of crying foul that this current council is placing the two-way option on the ballot, with what the SARP supporters say is an inflated price, why aren't they using this as a way to educate the voters on the benefits of their plan; if returning Sprague back to a two-way street will act to revitalize Sprague, they should have the figures to prove it; he said that this and a list of stores clamoring to open once this event happens will go a long ways to ease the voters' minds; he said they have had years to create a list of businesses so why don't they use the time between now and November to tell us about it; he said he would love to know a Wal- Mart super store is being planned for Sprague, or how other stores are seeking sites at the Old U-City; he said they should be able to give numerous reasons why this set of one ways needs taxpayer assistance while other sets in the valley and Spokane seem to do fine; he said that perhaps they could tell us why their vision of a revitalized Sprague/Appleway caused them to invest over$1 million in a plan that would ultimately cost over $30 million, while the bridge over the Spokane River on Sullivan was falling apart; he said it should be easy to explain to the businesses that are affected by the weight restrictions on that bridge that the extra cost is just of doing business in Spokane Valley for their vision; he said they could even mention the $4.2 million grant from the Transportation Improvement Board as a great down- payment for the tens of millions of dollars that SARP would have cost us; and he asked Council to place this question on the ballot in order to settle the matter. City Attorney Driskell said to clarify, the $6,528,000 was placed in the ordinance, but said that we have now received some updated information from HDR Consulting Agency that the cost could go as high as $7 million, plus a 2% bonding cost; and said Council has the option to change the landscaping to a range from zero to $3 million,and reiterated that the $6,528,000 is a flexible number. Craig Eggelston, 11810 E 18th Avenue; said he is a former Planning Commissioner and is a precinct committee officer and a block watch captain;he said speaking as a resident,leaving Sprague as a one-way would be turning it into a"small freeway"but said if that is council's goal, then keep it one-way; he said the speed limits will only get faster, and businesses will leave Sprague as the evidence supports; he said in driving here tonight and on his daily travels on Sprague, more businesses are leaving Sprague between University and going down to the big box stores;he said no one wants to do business there because of the high speed traffic; he said he has seen studies and heard testimony from his neighbors and as a planning commissioner, about how people want a vital, business community on Sprague; and if the street is one- way, that won't happen; he said people talk about the cost to change it back to two-way, but he questioned the cost of not doing it; he said there have been no conversations about tax incentives to businesses to help accommodate these businesses or in partnering with businesses; and said he hasn't heard council discuss any of those concerns; he said in regard to advocates of SARP crying foul, he said he is an advocate of having a thriving business community on Sprague, he said he wants to be able to walk there;and said he's never heard anyone advocate for faster traffic there;he said he is disappointed in the City Council about the direction and the decisions council has made; and said if council is going to put this on the ballot, then do so, but again said it is disappointing that Council has wasted so much time and energy and effort that we are going back exactly where we started and that Council is not leading. Minutes Special Council Meeting 08-15-2011 Page 3 of 7 Approved by Council: DRAFT Phillip Rudy, 5627 N Fruithill,with a business at 720 N. Argonne: said he feels putting this on the ballot is a waste of time; but that if Council does put it on the ballot, Council should strip it down to $1.6 million which is what it would take to turn it to two-ways; he said is he proud of Councilmembers Grafos and Grassel for wanting to make a beautiful landscaped area; and said if council does spend the $3 million, it could probably be a beautiful area, and said Council needs to contact the business and land owners to see what they would like to see that area become; in speaking to Councilmembers Grafos and Grassel, he said he thinks down in their hearts that they want to include the best parts of SARP, and one of those is to make a beautiful City Center. Randy Alvarez, 3010 S. Pines: said he doesn't feel strongly one way or the other as he does very little driving and does not own property; but said Winco is in that area and they seem to be doing well, adding he realizes they are a large business, which is different from a small business; he said he goes to Sports City Toyota to get parts and doesn't have problems getting there or back; and said he would be in favor of putting in bicycle improvements. Ray Perry, 2020 N Ely: said he has been attending meetings on this subject, if everyone could see all the figures of how many people left Sprague Avenue because it went to a one-way, that people would understand some of the ideas of why people want it changed back to two-way; and said it might slow down some of the traffic if there are enough doors opening on it; and said people should find out the figures before voting; and said he would like to see just a vote but without the money figures; and said those figures should be put up on the backboards prior to the vote. There were no other public comments. Councilmember Gothmann asked to hear information from HDR Consultants, and Mr. Ross Kelly, of HDR Consulting Engineers, 1401 E. Trent, went through a PowerPoint presentation discussing Phase 1 and Phase 2 of his report; and he asked Council to look at the actual numbers using a travel demand model; he noted the biggest change was not continuing the couplet beyond University. Public Works Director Kersten said the cost increases are a result of the unit cost increasing from a couple years ago, as well as additional signal work, and that Council had recommended going to the higher $3 million for landscaping, shrubs, drywalls, and multi-use pathway, adding that those figures were from the original designs from the SARP(Sprague/Appleway Revitalization Plan),and that the cost under SARP was about $4.3 million, some of which included detailed landscaping at the City Center; he said the $3 million would get high quality landscaping, examples of which are in the packet, and includes a full, multi-use bike path on the north side of Appleway.Mr.Kersten also stated that Council can move this figure as they deem appropriate. Discussion ensued about the idea of not including the landscaping, of the need to bring the stormwater up to the new standards so they would function well,which is not currently budgeted; and of reducing the amount down to $4 or even $2.1 million and that this has been an ongoing controversy for over ten years and thus the need to put it on the ballot. After further discussion, Council decided to change the $6,528,000 figure to $2.1 million, and to make other necessary adjustments to the ordinance. It was then moved by Councilmember Woodard and seconded, to amend the motion to change the ordinance title to "not to exceed$2,142,000 to finance conversion of Sprague and Appleway to two-way streets between Argonne/Dishman and University Road, including stripping, signals and ADA upgrades, and to levy excess property taxes annually to repay the bonds within a maximum term of twenty years; and providing for other matters relating thereto. Staff left the room to make the necessary adjustments to the ordinance in order to bring it back to this meeting for a vote on the amended motion. In the meantime,Mayor Towey invited public comment on the proposed amended motion. Randy Alvarez,2010 S. Pines Road, asked if Council contacted the businesses that relocated to see how they're doing; and Lewis Higgins, 13707 E. 23rd Court, said that Public Works Director Kersten had stated previously there would be a need for re-grinding and re-paving and the $2.1 million doesn't get you there and said that he (Mr. Higgins) feels that is deceptive. There were no further comments and at 7:20 p.m., Mayor Towey called for a recess. When staff returned to the meeting with the amended verbiage on the ordinance, Minutes Special Council Meeting 08-15-2011 Page 4 of 7 Approved by Council: DRAFT Mayor Towey reconvened the meeting at 7:53 p.m.; at which time he asked for a vote on amending the motion, and Council voted unanimously to amend the motion. Prior to council voting on the fully amended motion, there were no public comments, but council discussion included comments from Councilmember Gothmann that he feels there is a safety issue relative to the fire department with the present configuration, that safety is the responsibility of council and it should not be delegated to a ballot issue; comment from Councilmember Grafos that this discussion has been going on for years and that if the Fire Department feels this is such a strong safety factor, they could relocate that station if necessary. Vote on the fully amended ordinance: In Favor: Mayor Towey, and Councilmembers Hafner, Grassel, Grafos, and Woodard. Opposed: Deputy Mayor Schimmels and Councilmember Gothmann. Motion passed. Additional public comment included remarks from Howard Herman, 11707 McDonald who applauded Council for their job tonight; and from Philip Rudy who also stated his appreciation to council tonight, and mentioned that if the voters pass this proposal, council could come back and add more for repaving and stormwater to be paid for from the normal funds. NON-ACTION ITEMS: 2. Spokane Valley Signage Regulations—Lori Barlow, Scott Kuhta Community Development Director Hohman and Senior Planner Barlow gave an overview of the City's sign regulations,including a comparison with the regulations of Liberty Lake and City of Spokane. Councilmember Grafos said he had previously asked staff to bring comparison figures for all jurisdictions including Spokane County; and Planner Barlow said at the time of incorporation, we used Spokane County's sign codes and they have not gone under any major re-writes since 2001; she said staff looked at cities because sign requirements are designed for cities differently from counties due to the makeup of the commercial areas; she said they did a cursory review of the County's regulations and might be able to answer any particular questions council has. Councilmember Grafos said he would like to see those differences included next time. Planner Barlow also mentioned she did not look at signs in residential districts nor for apartment complexes since they have not experienced any issues in that regard. Councilmember Gothmann mentioned that when we started our sign regulations,a committee was formed which included professional sign people, and suggested getting them involved if we start to examine this issue extensively. Director Hohman said they can expand the discussion to include Spokane County and council agreed they would like to see that additional information next time. Director Hohman said staff can also bring examples of range of cost for particular signs to determine if we are consistent with our neighboring jurisdictions. Councilmember Grassel said she would like the permit process streamlined,and questioned why a symbol on a sign would require two separate permits. Councilmember Grassel also inquired about signs for just I-90 and freeways, including elevated signs coming off freeways, and Mr. Hohman said they will also include that in their research. Councilmember Grassel said that concerning the monument sign heights, if a sign is over 6 ft. that sign must be certified by an engineer, and said there is sometimes a problem in what we say we allow and the actual process,and that she would like to look at those details. Regulations for banners, flags, pennants and streamers were discussed with Councilmember Grafos mentioning that the thirty days versus sixty days regulations were confusing. In response to a question concerning the definition of copy, Ms. Barlow said for a future presentation, she could provide more details of that definition as well as the definition of advertising. It was moved by Councilmember Hafner and seconded to extend the meeting for fifteen minutes. Vote by Acclamation: In Favor: Mayor Towey, Deputy Mayor Schimmels, and Councilmembers Hafner, Gothmann, Grassel and Grafos. Opposed: Councilmember Woodard. Motion passed. Special event sign regulations were discussed, including the time limits and number of times per year for such a permit; with councilmembers stating they would like to discuss that issue further as well, and Director Hohman said he would propose to try to simplify the process as much as possible and agreed it is Minutes Special Council Meeting 08-15-2011 Page 5 of 7 Approved by Council: DRAFT very confusing. Planner Barlow added that standards are put in place by the community; that some cities place strong emphasis on aesthesis, while others emphasize overall appearance; that some temporary signs and banners don't last well or remain in good condition over time, and we want to consider how those temporary signs appear as when they become ragged, it deflects from the character of the community. Sign enforcement was also mentioned and staff explained then when a temporary sign permit is issued, a notice is sent to our code enforcement officers so they know when a temporary sign was issued and would expire; and if the sign remains after the permit has expired, a friendly reminder is sent to the business. Ms. Barlow said she will check to see what Spokane County charges for temporary signs; and said an objective concerning temporary signs is to keep the pathway/walkway clear. Director Hohman said staff will provide some ideas on how to minimize the process yet provide protection, and to have the regulations easy to understand and enforce. Complaints were also discussed including suggestion from Councilmember Grafos about not allowing anonymous complaints. City Manager Jackson said they will look at those regulations and policies, but there are times when citizens feel there would be repercussions if a complaint is made,but that the subject of complaints can be brought back for a future discussion. At approximately 9:20 p.m., it was moved by Deputy Mayor Schimmels, seconded and unanimously agreed to extend the meeting another fifteen minutes. Councilmember Woodard said he feels temporary signs should be allowed with little or no permitting. Planner Barlow mentioned staff strives to make the regulations simple and user friendly to avoid complications; she said we are a compliant-driven city and those who abide are compromised because they are trying to do just that; and by not being regulated,it compromises citizens who are trying to do the right thing. Councilmember Grassel suggested some of the temporary sign fees seem out of order; and in response to a question form Councilmember Hafner of where the regulations come from, Planner Barlow explained that the regulations are contained in our municipal code. There was also mention of the cap and replace policy concerning billboards, and Planner Barlow said she would bring more information on that next time,to include areas where billboards are allowed.At approximately 9:30 p.m., it was moved by Deputy Mayor Schimmels, seconded and unanimously agreed to extend the meeting another thirty minutes. Councilmember Grafos said he would also like a discussion next time to include off-premise signs. 3.Ballot Guidelines for Elected Officials—Cary Driskell City Attorney Driskell said he wanted to take some time tonight to briefly discuss the materials concerning ballot guidelines for elected officials and staff relating to a pending ballot measure; said this is intended to identify a range of options under state law and is not intended to be a statement of what elected officials or staff may or may not do for any specific ballot measure. Prior to the "Advance Agenda" item, City Manager Jackson took a few minutes to introduce and announce Roger Crum as our newly appointed Interim Deputy City Manager,who Mr. Jackson appointed through working with Prothman Consulting Company. Mr. Jackson said that Mr. Crum's background includes about twenty years with the City of Spokane as Assistant City Manager then City Manager, and said we are pleased to have Mr. Crum with us; and Councilmembers extended a welcome to Mr. Crum. 4.Advance Agenda—Mayor Towey After brief discussion on some upcoming items,it was clarified that staff will bring the bike program back to council with some substantial revisions to the plan and edits that hopefully match previous council comments, and that council will have another opportunity for commenting on the plan. It was also noted that the topic of bicycle helmets is scheduled for the September 20 meeting. Minutes Special Council Meeting 08-15-2011 Page 6 of 7 Approved by Council: DRAFT 5.

City Clerk Bainbridge asked for clarification that the motion included consent items b,c,d,and e,and councilmembers concurred that was their intent. OLD BUSINESS: 3. Tabled Motion of July 26,2011: Railroad Quiet Zone—Inga Note It was moved by Councilmember Grafos and seconded to remove from the table the motion to authorize the City Manager or designee to finalize and execute a contract with David Evans and Associates for approximately $82,551 to proceed with their scope of work to identi. the improvements, policies and strategies needed to accomplish quiet zone implementation. Traffic Engineer Note then explained that council had previously asked for additional information on the option of a wayside horn; she said she spoke with those who specialize in the wayside horns and obtained two quotes which range between Council Regular Meeting 08 23-2011 Page 2 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT $65,000 to $180,000 per crossing; and said the cost varies because if we have several roads at the crossing, sometimes more than one horn would be needed; so we might need horns not just for Vista or Park but for other streets,and said further analysis would be needed. Mayor Towey invited public comment,and Tony Lazanis, 10626 E. Empire, said everything is ready and the thing needed to do to stop the horns is put the public signs on Trent which indicate the area is a quiet zone, and said other than that, it is ready for a quiet zone since the center barrier and markers are already in place. Councilmember Gothmann mentioned that the place at issue is the railroad that runs beside Felts Field. Council discussion included wanting more details on the horns and an explanation of how it is different from quiet zones; mention of citizen expectations; of the need to hire the engineering firm to make the analysis, which is the purpose of the David Evans proposal; and Councilmember Woodard discussed information contained in his handout from AHS (Automated Horn System), and questioned the process for selecting a consultant. City Manager Jackson explained that the city staff selects a consultant or engineer based on qualifications, and once selected a fee is negotiated; but that staff is responsible for that aspect and that staff is required to follow certain procedures and state regulations in selecting a consultant,while council approves contracts;and said if council wants to broaden the scope of the project, to let him know. Councilmember Grassel suggested if having quiet zones is something council is interested in, that Council should take a look at the entire city. Vote by Acclamation to remove the item from the table: In Favor: Mayor Towey, Deputy Mayor Schimmels, and Councilmembers Hafner, Grassel, Gothmann and Grafos. Opposed: Councilmember Woodard. Motion passed and the previous motion was opened for discussion. Several councilmembers mentioned that the $82,000 is not budgeted, and that they would like further information. Mayor Towey invited public comment. Joe McGrath, 9320 E. Montgomery, said the Greater Northern horns go off toward his house but he doesn't hear the BP trains very much; said the concern about BP is far less than the horns of the Greater Northern which sound almost every 5 minutes, and he said the horns are especially disturbing at night. Tony Lazanis, 10626 E. Empire said he thinks Council should have the right to get a specialized firm; that there shouldn't be anything to stop council from getting information, including help from Olympia Lobbyists; and said he doesn't think Mr. Jackson should say Council can't do it. Mayor Towey said there is a distinction between the responsibility of the council and that of the staff and it is Council's responsibility to ask for more information,but it is not Council's responsibility to choose the consultant and the fees that they charge. Councilmember Gothmann agreed and said the rules are in place so that elected officials can't tell their friends that the Council will get them a contract; but rather the choice is up to the city administrator which makes for good checks and balances. Councilmember Hafner called for the question,and there was unanimous agreement in favor of calling for the question. Vote by acclamation on the original motion to authorize the City Manager or designee to finalize and execute a contract with David Evans and Associates for approximately $82,551 to proceed with their scope of work to identify the improvements,policies and strategies needed to accomplish quiet zone implementation: In Favor: Councilmember Gothmann. Opposed: Mayor Towey, Deputy Mayor Schimmels, and Councilmembers Hafner, Grassel, Grafos, and Woodard. Motion failed. NEW BUSINESS: 4. Proposed Resolution 11-007 Amending 2011 Transportation Improvement Plan—Steve Worley It was moved by Councilmember Grafos and seconded to approve Resolution No. 11-007 adopting the Amendment #2 to the 2011 TIP as presented. Mr. Worley explained that this is more of a housekeeping item; that council adopted the amended 2011 TIP based upon information staff had earlier this year and since that adoption, staff submitted an application for the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) New Freedom program and was awarded funding for the Sidewalk and Transit Accessibly Project. Mr.Worley Council Regular Meeting 08 23-2011 Page 3 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT said this project proposes using REET (real estate excise tax) funds for the local match and state statutes require projects using REET funds to be in an adopted plan, and amending the 2011 TIP satisfies this requirement. Mayor Towey invited public comment; no comments were offered. Vote by Acclamation: In Favor: Unanimous. Opposed:None. Motion carried. 5.Motion Consideration: TIB Project Proposal,Mansfield Avenue—Steve Worley It was moved by Councilmember Grafos and seconded to approve the Mansfield Avenue Connection project for TIB grant application as presented. Senior Engineer Worley explained that a few weeks ago, staff brought forward a list of projects for possible submission to the Transportation Improvement Board (TIB) for their current call for projects; and that council agreed on a list of six projects; but that the day after the approval,Mr. Worley met with some local developers who he had previously asked if they were interested in participating in a project as a private partner developer; and that he heard a day or two later that they would be interested in participating as a partner/developer; and said they agreed to participate and Mr. Worley referred to the tables contained in the council packet material showing project funding scenarios. Mayor Towey invited public comment. Tom Hamilton, a partner in the Granite Point Apartments: he said they paid$167,000 for permits, and he said they will need an extension of those permits because the road has not gone through; he said they were assured, back to 2004,that the road would go through; he said the part that Mr. Worley pointed out that they paid for, 87 feet of road, was in excess of$800,000 that they paid; and in addition to the permit fee,the paid a$207,000 mitigation fee for the light at Mansfield and Pines; he said the city stands to gain a lot more strictly from sales tax,employment,and over 200 residents that will be there,plus the property tax;he said the developer has already put in over$1 million,and for the city to put in $100,000 to get that little six-plex knocked down and to take that road through appears to be a no-brainer; and he said they were assured by the County many years ago before the City was formed, that this would happen, and he asked council to understand that the city will make money and not spend money by approving this project. Bill Lawson, Senior Partner of Granite Point Apartments, said this project has a great deal of history, and even the railroad crossing got moved down, and he said by putting in that 770 feet of road, which he didn't want to do because he thought it would never get done,that they gave up about two acres of land to put in this road, right-of-way and swales, and said there is an additional land value about $250,000; and said it is time to get it done, and he asked for Council approval. There were no other public comments. Councilmember Grassel asked who owns the property where the six-plex sits, and Mr. Worley replied they would have to research that; and if the owners don't want to sell, he said the City has the right of condemnation,which would be a council decision, adding that the City has never used that process. Vote by Acclamation on the motion to approve the Mansfield Avenue Connection project for TIB grant application as presented:In Favor: Unanimous. Opposed: none. Motion carried. 6.Motion Consideration: Set 2012 Budget Hearings—Mark Calhoun It was moved by Councilmember Grafos and seconded to set the 2012 budget hearing dates for September 27 and October 11, 2011. Finance Director Calhoun explained that this is an important and necessary part of the 2012 budget process, and that state law requires that we hold two public hearings; and setting the dates as mentioned will keep us on track to adopt the 2012 budget. Mayor Towey invited public comment; no comments were offered. Vote by Acclamation: In Favor: Unanimous. Opposed: None. Motion carried. PUBLIC COMMENTS: Mayor Towey invited public comment. Tony Lazanis submitted a letter concerning paying for a survey in an attempt to divide his private property into two lots; and he asked for an answer to his situation. Mr.Jackson said staff will research the issue and respond to Mr.Lazanis. Council Regular Meeting 08 23-2011 Page 4 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT Mayor Towey called for a recess at 7:35 p.m.and reconvened the meeting at 7:50 p.m. ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS: 7.Traffic School—Morgan Koudelka Senior Administrative Analyst Koudelka explained that currently the Spokane County Sheriff's office operates a traffic school for qualifying individuals who receive traffic infractions in the unincorporated County; and that the school allows officers to interact with the individuals in a positive environment providing education on traffic laws and safe driving techniques, and in return the participant has their infraction dismissed upon satisfactory completion of the class. After Mr. Koudelka gave his PowerPoint presentation on the subject, there was council consensus to move this forward for a motion consideration at a future meeting. 8.Review of ordinance that Levies 2012 property tax—Mark Calhoun; and 9.Review of Ordinance to Confirm Tax Levy—Mark Calhoun Finance Director Calhoun explained that these are the ordinances that are required by law in order to levy property taxes, and then to confirm the tax levy; that the levy will not have an increase except for new construction, and our levy amount remains the same with neither an increase nor decrease. Mr. Calhoun said these ordinances, along with the ordinance to adopt the budget, will be brought before Council later this fall as a first and second reading. 10. Sullivan Bridge Review—Steve Worley Senior Engineer Worley explained that due to its deteriorating condition, staff has been evaluating the Sullivan Road West Bridge and pursuing funding for its replacement; that the bridge was given a Sufficiency Rating of 24.14 in its 2010 Bridge inspection and it was determined to be "structurally deficient." Mr. Worley mentioned that the estimated bridge replacement will cost $19.7 million, and that currently the city has received a federal bridge replacement grant for$8 million and a FMSIB grant for$2 million; and said the federal grant requires a 20%match. Mr. Worley said the bridge is not in immediate risk of failure,and the purpose of placing weight restrictions on the bridge is to slow further deterioration; and he explained more about the weight restrictions, the notification process, options to prevent further damage, and of the estimated needed funds to move forward; and further explained that this is a two year process to complete planning, reviewing, permitting and designing phases, and that the bridge ranked #1 in priority last year by SRTC(Spokane Regional Transportation Council)for regional significance. 11. Contract Authority, SVMC 3.35—Mike Jackson City Manager Jackson explained that a few weeks ago a question was raised about the process and authority of the City Manager concerning granting contracts or change orders; and Mr. Jackson explained that per our Municipal Code,the City Manager is authorized to enter into contracts, contract changes and change orders without council approval when the aggregate amount and all contract amendments does not exceed $200,000; and said the exception to this is on contracts previously approved by council, then the City Manager has authority to execute amendments which aggregate amounts are less than 15% of the original contract amount, or up to $200,000, whichever is less. Mr. Jackson said staff in public works tracks all the change orders so the City Manager knows the total amount prior to executing the contracts. 12.Advance Agenda—Mayor Towey Councilmember Grafos asked that council review the city policy on car shows and said different clubs seem to think we are resistant to their types of activity and they were chased out of the area; and City Manager Jackson asked if Mr. Grafos has names of those concerned so that staff can discuss the issue with them; and Mr. Grafos agreed he would supply the needed information. Mr. Grafos also mentioned he would like more information on quiet zones and to have AHS make a presentation to council in the future. Mr. Jackson said we are not currently considering the award of a contract, but staff can look for someone to make a presentation on the wayside horns;and Council concurred.

Library Services in Spokane Valley—Doug Stumbough Via his PowerPoint presentation, Branch Services Manager Doug Stumbough gave an overview of the services of the Spokane County Library District. Mr. Stumbough explained the Library's service area, how it is governed and financed,the infrastructure of their ten branches and website, gave a use sampling and service history including history of the Valley Library building; spoke of their five-year trend and of the materials, programs and services they provide for the community; mentioned their 20-year facilities master plan, and of the recent needs assessment with the associated three phases of plan priorities improvements. 2. Social Service Outside Agency Funding Requests—Mark Calhoun Finance Director Calhoun briefly explained the process for receiving these requests for funding, and asked that councilmembers submit their recommendations to him no later than 4 p.m. September 14,after which time he will prepare combined information and allocation averages for Council as they consider the funding allocations at the September 27 council meeting. Councilmember Gothmann said the site selector was removed from the total, which reduced the amount by $15,000, and he therefore moved to set $150,000 as the total allocation for all outside agency requests. The motion was seconded, there was no public comment, and council voted unanimously in favor of the motion. At Mayor Towey's invitation,the following social service agencies made their presentation to council: (a) Big Brothers Big Sisters, (b) Coalition of the Responsible Disabled,(d) Greater Spokane Substance Abuse Council,(e)Project Access, (f) Spokane Valley Partners, (g) Spokane Valley Veterans Forum, (h) Valley Meals on Wheels, and (i) YWCA. It was noted that staff received word from (c) Community Minded Television that they would not be able to attend tonight,but were still interested in receiving funding. Mayor Towey called for a recess at 7:23 p.m. and reconvened the meeting at 7:36 p.m. 3.Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Program—Mike Basinger Community Development Director Hohman explained that tonight is a working session to get the details of the plan, item by item, and that it is clear council needs to review those details and supply staff with edits. Director Hohman said a problem with the plan is that the Department did not give an administrative report to council in the beginning in order to get necessary feedback on what over-riding issues council would like to address; and said this is a change he'll institute,and to begin these processes, staff is here to Council Study Session Minutes August 30,2011 Page 1 of 5 Approved by Council: DRAFT get in context of what council wants to see in the plan, and then process that back through the Planning Commission and hearings if necessary, or council could conduct public hearings. Director Hohman said there is a lot of information to present at once and he encouraged Council to ask questions as staff moves through the document. Senior Planner Basinger went through the PowerPoint presentation, which included an explanation of the purpose of the Bike and Pedestrian Master Program (BPMP). Discussion included comments from Mayor Towey that he feels the focus should be on sidewalks and bicycles equally, and Councilmember Woodard remarked that he feels sidewalks should have a higher priority. Councilmember Gothmann asked if the statistics suggest we have a pedestrian or bike problem, or both, and Mr. Basinger replied it seems to be a little of both, as many times the bike facility acts as a buffer to the pedestrian on the sidewalk. Councilmember Hafner mentioned the lack of sidewalks, especially for children walking to and from school and suggested that sidewalk safety for everyone should be first,with bike paths second; and Councilmember Woodard agreed we have a lack of sidewalks, especially in residential areas, and mentioned his preference for paving curb to curb with sidewalks. Councilmember Grafos agreed with the need for both sidewalks and bicycle paths, but to first focus on the plan, and suggested making edits to the goals and policies in order to have a more common sense approach; and mentioned he is not sure if this needs to be in the city's comprehensive plan, but does want a balanced bike plan to encourage families to come to our city. Councilmember Grassel suggested making changes so the document is more of a guide than a mandate, and to perhaps be more broad and general and not so detailed. Councilmember Woodard asked about ancillary facilities on page 18 of the plan, and Mr. Hohman said in order to address the details further, this topic will be rescheduled; and it was noted that not all councilmembers had their copy of the plan on hand. At approximately 9:00 p.m., it was moved by Deputy Mayor Schimmels, seconded and unanimously agreed to extend the meeting for an hour. Councilmembers concurred with staff making the following suggested or similar edits, and to schedule a future meeting to discuss the entire document in track-change format: • To generally change the word"will"to"can" • Change directives such as"ensure"to "encourage,"and"maintain"to "strive to maintain" Network and Facilities Goal& Policies I Goal BP-1 Provide a comprehensive, bikeway and pedestrian system connecting residential neighborhoods with parks, schools, commercial areas, trails, and employment areas within the City and to adjacent jurisdictions.

Councilmember Grassel suggested we eventually develop a brochure of our city to place at hotels,motels, and other establishments; and suggested we include some coordination between road projects and bike plans, similar to the situation at Mission Trailhead. Director Hohman said he appreciates council's feedback and said staff will examine the document to ensure we are not duplicating our directives. 4. Solid Waste Update—Neil Kersten Public Works Director Kersten said tonight he wanted to specifically review the alliance agreement, and he brought Council's attention to the included Comprehensive Plan Chapter 13, which he said is a resource document for council to review as it covers a lot of the history,participants,and issues,including how the system works as well as several alternatives addressed by the SWAC (Solid Waste Advisory Committee), including that committee's recommendations in section 13.6 on pages 13-29. Mr. Kersten said the intent is to extend the agreement for another three years, and Mr. Jackson added that we could convey that intent via a short letter; said there are other entities with agreements which don't expire until 2015 or 2016, and suggested extending our agreement would not be a problem. Mr. Jackson and Mr. Kersten both agreed tonight is a precursor for tomorrow's joint meeting on this topic with the Board of County Commissioners. Discussion included mention of the renegotiated contract Spokane City has with Wheelabrator; that an extension of three years would not prevent us from further discussing the agreement; and several aspects of the draft agreement including the voting process with the small cities having veto control over any action and the suggestion that they should not have majority control; budget shortfalls and the suggestion that members should not have to make up differences if they arise; that the system should be controlled and run by the tipping fee;that the capacity constraint section needs to be re- written as the obligation should be under the alliance if capacity issues arise as there is no way for Spokane Valley to develop a system to handle overflows; the issue of section 8.2.1 concerning withdrawing and that large cities should not be permitted to withdraw; and that the duration needs to be at least twenty years. Councilmember Woodard expressed his opinion that we not extend the contract. City Manager Jackson said there are other sections of the agreement to consider, that the previous summit stressed that the system be regional, and said it would be difficult to have a regional system without the City of Spokane; and said it needs to be financially sustainable and environmentally responsible, and said he feels Mr.Kersten's suggestions are excellent and he is hopeful the Alliance will pursue the study. 5.Advance Agenda—Mayor Towey Mr. Jackson mentioned that the bike helmet discussion is scheduled for September 20; and that speed limits have been added to the list of pending items. 6. Council Check-in—Mayor Towey There were no council comments. Council Study Session Minutes August 30,2011 Page 4 of 5 Approved by Council: DRAFT 7. City Manager Comments City Manager Jackson reminded council that he will present the Preliminary Budget at next week's council meeting, and that this year as opposed to previous years, staff is proposing to separate recurring expenses and nonrecurring expenses; and also to no longer appropriate the ending fund balance as a portion of the general fund, but to propose a 1% contingency of the total general fund that could be used in case of emergency or other circumstances that would cause us to dip into the ending fund balance; he said this process will protect the ending fund balance from being spent. Mr. Jackson said he will cover this in more detail next week. It was moved by Deputy Mayor Schimmels, seconded and unanimously agreed to adjourn.

Below is a general outline of the key principals that the Board used as the formation of the Alliance and should govern its future management. #1 —provide the best technology in solid waste disposal at the most affordable cost to the rate payer; #2 —provide for equitable representation of members and their constituents on the alliance board; #3 —contract out to the private sector to the greatest extent possible,all operations; #4—minimize the financial burden to the alliance members; #5—employ minimal staff consisting of an executive director, contract administrator and accounting/billing services as required; #6 — allow for decisions related to utility taxes to be controlled by the individual jurisdictions and not the alliance; #7—ensure vendor contract terms Special Joint Meeting Minutes of August 31,2011 Page 1 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT provide flexibility to adjust to the latest technologies as they become competitively available to the region;#8—use vendor contracting process to acquire assets for the system as opposed to incurring debt to be borne by the alliance or its members; #9—minimize any exposure to alliance members' general funds; and#10—minimize financial exposure to alliance members for any start-up costs." In reference to the draft interlocal,Chair French said that many jurisdictions are reviewing the agreement, and several including the City of Cheney have expressed concern with meeting the October 3 deadline, and said Cheney's mayor will be giving the Board information on the process and at what point Cheney can participate, and said they indicated they want to participate. Commissioner Mielke mentioned that when this draft interlocal was presented to Deer Park,they felt it was a"cart-horse thing" as they wanted a cost, but Commissioner Mielke said a cost can't be calculated until they know all the partners as they need to determine how many jurisdictions are interested, and then calculate according to each jurisdiction's annual tonnage; and said Deer Park also wanted a model resolution for consideration, and said Chair French is working on that. Chair French said that at the two-day summit in February,everyone wanted to examine forming an alliance, and said the task force has done excellent work, that they had a goal of having it all done by June and that was accomplished. He also mentioned that some asked about an alternate plan,and said the alternate plan is the county would form its own department and farm out for those willing to work, if people are happy with the County taking over and doing that service;he said the Board of County Commissioners is prepared to move in that direction only if that is the desire of the members. Councilmember Gothmann said this topic was included on last night's council agenda where councilmembers discussed a list of concerns, and said he feels they are at a point where they need facts and figures on cost and that the Council doesn't want to sign until those figures are provided. Chair French said they need to start working through and identifying the cost, whether this is handled by a contractor or with the County, and Councilmember Gothmann stated he feels regionally is the common sense way to do things and feels Spokane Valley is not likely moving towards its own plan. Mayor Towey agreed the Council is leaning toward the alliance but has concerns about the details, and that the City of Spokane has not yet made a decision, adding that without the City of Spokane, there can be no regionalism; and said he would like to see a study of options and that a partial regional concept doesn't seem to be what came out of the Summit or Task Force. Commissioner Richard said their desire is not to separate from the City of Spokane, that he believes the current system lacks financial accountability, representation and transparency; and for the better part of four years, he has tried to articulate to the City of Spokane that these things are needed; that it would be great to have all jurisdictions participate, but a regional system does not have to include every jurisdiction, although there would be a huge hole without the City of Spokane. Commissioner Mielke said we need to be cautious to not allowing a jurisdiction to have veto power over what they do, and if one potential partner holds out, they become the one with the veto power; that the City of Spokane is trying to decide which direction to go and the Board of County Commissioners needs to make a decision; he said he realizes the City of Spokane feels the Waste-to-Energy plant has a value as an economic development tool and that they likely want to keep that running, so if every other jurisdiction goes in different directions,they can rely on that plant;he said they don't want to commit any flow to the alliance unless they know the alliance will keep the flow going to the Waste-to-Energy plant; that there is a fine balancing point in the economies of scale to send all flow to one disposal plant versus diversifying risk, and said perhaps the long haul would be the cheapest,unless gas prices soar; he said they are waiting for us and we are waiting for them; that the only number the City of Spokane has is the cost of disposal of a complete system,including recycling and education; and said the County has asked them to give just the cost of the disposal,but that they have not calculated that at this point. Chair French added it is difficult to negotiate price when there is only a single vendor. Councilmember Woodard said there are only two months until Spokane Valley's interlocal expires and he feels it is a big mistake not to pursue other options as it leaves no negotiating ability; he said he feels something must be done in the interim; that he likes the concept but some items need refining, adding that he likes the idea of not allowing the larger Special Joint Meeting Minutes of August 31,2011 Page 2 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT partners to leave as it would break the system. Councilmember Gothmann suggested there is no reason why the County and Spokane Valley can't develop financial models, one including and one not including the City of Spokane; and said he feels in the interim the obvious thing to do is to sign a three-year extension, and Commissioner French agreed; and said they had a meeting yesterday with members of the City and asked them to look at the system about any economies to minimize the rates. Mr. French said one of those elements was how to manage the operating hours of the transfer stations, and said perhaps the number of hours those transfer stations are open could be reduced. Further discussion included costs, maintenance and other issues associated with Wheelabrator; mention from Commissioner Richard that the County is attempting to make sure none of the parties would be obligated for any debt beyond the retirement of the existing debt , and that none of the parties would be obligated for any liability for the new sale to the current landfill beyond the term of the contractual agreement; there was mention of shifts in cost driving the need to increase tipping fee as well as loss of revenue or change in rates; and encouraging Spokane Valley to support legislation that would authorize the Waste-to-Energy Plant as a renewal energy source. Commissioner French said that the October 3 date was established by the Task Force and is an arbitrary date so that the issue wouldn't languish forever; and said if Spokane Valley and other members need more time that is not a problem; but said they need to start identifying costs and putting together some cost structures about how the system will look; and suggested perhaps Spokane Valley staff could work with County staff on cost structure, and that perhaps Bill Wedlake and Neil Kersten could work together on that pricing and organizing structure; he also mentioned that last June there was a joint meeting with the County Board and Kootenai County Board and that they have a landfill and they said they'd be willing to take our waste, and the cost now is $65 a ton, so there are options. Mayor Towey said October 3 date seems reasonable. Mr. Jackson said he has no objection to staff working together,and said that the idea of the system being charged with developing the cost and alternatives would be something to explore. 2.Animal Control Commissioner Mielke distributed several documents concerning animal control, including a resolution in support of the concept of a regional animal control partnership; and he explained the historical perspective about Spokane Valley, Spokane County, Cheney, Millwood and others partnering with SCRAPS for animal control services. Mr. Mielke said the current facility is a forty-year old building; they have never paid rent but the State Auditor said they probably should; he said the facility is literally on the wrong side of the railroad tracks and the train has a tendency to park on the line and block the facility during the day. Additionally, he explained there are only two toilets in the building for about 70 people's use during the day; that the fire hydrant is on the wrong side which leads to water problems; that the current site is on the border of gravel pits so if we were to move it too far it would be on unstable ground; that the current coalition would have to determine how to finance a new facility; that Spokane Valley uses about 40%of the resources; and that the City of Spokane wanted to join about three years ago since their provider SpokeAnimal changed their services. Mr.Mielke said the current facility is not large enough to accommodate the needs; and several meetings have been held to discuss options and at one of those meetings,they came up with a list of questions: 1. From a financial perspective, are there operational cost savings in a regionally combined animal control operation versus each jurisdiction pursuing its own program? 2. Is there any way to fund a capital expenditure for a combined facility without going to a public vote? (a)Could current operations absorb the capital cost of a combined facility? (b) If the answer to (a) is no, could the individual jurisdictions contribute other funds to cover the annual capital cost payments? 3. In pursuing a combined facility,would there be savings by purchasing a pre-existing facility and remodeling it,rather than constructing a new combined facility? Special Joint Meeting Minutes of August 31,2011 Page 3 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT Commissioner Mielke said last November they came back with answers to the questions; moving on the assumption that SpokeAnimal was getting out of the business, they determined there would be a savings of about $400,000 in moving to a regional operation; that they tried to figure out how to have a facility without going to the voters, and determined they would have to take animal control down 40%to be able to make the bond payments,and if that occurred,he said,Animal Control would not be able to fulfill their mission;which led to the question,could jurisdictions absorb the cost of bond payments on a proportional basis said jurisdictions indicated they could not absorb that in their current budget. Mr. Mielke said there is a lot of empty real estate on the market and along with that,the idea of renovating existing land;he also explained they use a great deal of water on the inside of the building which necessitates floor drains, water proofing, and several other challenges. He explained that the Task Force went to the Traders Club, a group of commercial realtors, to ask them to develop a short list of areas that meet the stated criteria; and based on the cost per square foot; if we buy the property and build the facility, it would be about $13.8 million, or rounded up to about $15 million; or an alternative of $9 to $10 million to remodel a purchased site,one he said they found near Havana. Mr.Mielke said they tried not to go to the ballot,but exhausted all their options. He further explained that on a $10 million bond ballot fmanced over nine years, it would result in about $8.00 annually for a $200,000 home. He said the City of Spokane asked them to hold off on ballot timing until they can determine if they would seek an excess levy; he said they decided they would not, so the Board of County Commissioners started moving forward to plan on a November ballot. Commissioner Mielke said the ballot assumes the $15 million, and would be used exclusively for replacement of a regional animal control facility and automatically end in nine years or less. Commissioner Mielke said they received some comments that until the City of Spokane agrees to sell that property, it would be good to have them go on record in support of this; and said Mayor Verner sent a letter regarding the conditions on joining a coalition; and he explained that the Board of County Commissioners voted to endorse the Mayor's letter to go forward with a coalition. The group discussed the figures on the spreadsheet distributed by Commissioner Mielke,which shows the financial impact for each jurisdiction; and Mr. Jackson said the correct amount for 2010 for Spokane Valley is $314,000. Continued discussion included mention by Commissioner Mielke that he will reconcile those numbers, and mention by Mayor Towey that it appears we have been subsidizing the City of Spokane even though the contract states there will be no subsidizing. Commissioner Mielke said the subsidy would go away once the bonds go away,and at an interval such as six years,a recalculation could be done if warranted; and said if the City of Spokane doesn't join,that would be an enormous difference as opposed to subsidizing. Commissioner Richard said he has a concern that some of these numbers are based on assumptions; and regarding subsidizing the City of Spokane, stated frankly that wouldn't every jurisdiction want that option; and said he is not comfortable with Spokane City agreeing that after the bond retirement they'll pay their fair share; and said everyone should share in the risk and the reward. Regarding the timing, Chair French said they put this on the ballot knowing there is still some work to do before perfecting it, and that the Board has the option of removing it from the ballot next Tuesday if they can't feel comfortable the major partner is on board, and said he is willing to pull it off the ballot; but their first alliance is to the existing partner; that solving the City's problems doesn't mean we subsidize them; but said if the City of Spokane Valley doesn't feel comfortable, he'll remove it from the ballot. Discussion turned to whether to remove it from the ballot;that if the City of Spokane came on board later there could be different negotiations; and mention there is always the chance such a ballot issue would not pass. Commissioner French said he needs to know before Tuesday whether or not to keep this on the ballot; and individual councilmembers said they were for keeping it on the ballot, with Councilmember Grassel adding that she has some issues with some of the data and figures, but agreed to keep it on the ballot as well. There was a break at approximately 11:12 a.m.,and the group reconvened at approximately 11:23 a.m. In the interest of time, it was determined the group would discuss the jail, followed by the Milwaukee right- of-way next,then the Transportation Benefit District. Special Joint Meeting Minutes of August 31,2011 Page 4 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT 3. Jail Commissioner Richard explained that he has been working on this project for about the last five years; that it involved remodeling, re-tooling and restructuring to separate the project into two pieces: a community corrections facility downtown next to the retrofitted jail; and then locate a more secure detention facility off-campus; and said they brought the projected cost down to $199 million from a high of about$265 million; he said it required finding a remote site, which was located in the west plains; and said the site required an amendment to the Urban Growth Boundary to access sewer and water; and said they are moving toward that amendment; he said that initially they felt the situation was an emergency as they were releasing some prisoners from the detention facility,but the Board withdrew the emergency and the amendment proposal and are putting the land use amendment into the ten-year amendment process, with a goal to have it completed at the end of the year; he said they were immersed in critical reforms in the last four or five years to manage the population and expand alternatives to incarceration; and said they feel they are doing that and buying time through those efficiencies without having a complete crisis due to a lack of facility;that they are going through the land use process and still examining other alternatives to locate the detention facility elsewhere; and said they got a conditional use permit for the community corrections for the retrofitting downtown without triggering a need for a new parking garage; and said the City Hearing Examiner approved the proposal without the need for a parking facility, which would save about $20 million; that there is a two-year window on the conditional use permit so the clock is ticking and they're moving forward; and said they will try to bring something in 2012 or 2013 depending on how things go. 4.Milwaukee Right-of-Way Update Mayor Towey gave some history on the Milwaukee road and the controversy over the years on who owns it and to what purpose would it be used; he said the County owns the property; and the focal point of the County and of the STA (Spokane Transit Authority) was to preserve the area for future mass transit; he said he hasn't talked to anyone in Spokane Valley who doesn't want the road extended; but the issue remains, and said he feels Spokane Valley, the County, and STA should sit down and determine a reasonable plan for this property to enhance the area,and to work together to preserve it so all citizens can use the area. Councilmember Grafos said he proposes we start together to develop that into an asset by making it a shared use path, starting at University and going to Liberty Lake; and to maybe get some construction companies to help with some of the ground work, and of course, to involve STA. He said there should be no impact on zoning, and suggests an asphalt path with vegetation on both sides. Commissioner Mielke said he feels that is a great idea; that their job is to determine how to connect communities in the county, and said there are some big expenses in projects in right-of-way acquisition, but said he sees no reason why we should not use it today; he said he sees it as a long-term asset as a region,and feels no reason why it should not be used on an interim basis for aesthetic value. Commissioner Richard said that it troubles him that in the last couple months, STA withdrew its high capacity analysis of that area, which, he said, is one of the reasons the County had been waiting; that he thinks STA belongs in the conversation, but we need to be careful not to let one entity drive the agenda; that STA had committed to do the analysis to determine if that's even the right corridor; and said he's not convinced that is the case and STA's decision to withdraw from that analysis further convinces him; he said he feels there is a need to request STA to make that determination so we can choose the best course moving forward; that we need to press STA to do the analysis and determine if that's the corridor to preserve; and in the interim; maybe go with an easement agreement; and he stressed the need to converse with STA. Councilmember Grafos suggested the idea of getting the property owners to develop the back of their properties, and agreed with the importance of involving STA. Chair French stated that STA indicated that this is not the right corridor for light rail, and agreed with the needed conversation with STA to determine their plans so the County can make appropriate decisions; and said he is fine having staff work on that transition to see how it works. Commissioner Richard reiterated that STA needs to Special Joint Meeting Minutes of August 31,2011 Page 5 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT complete the analysis or determine the area is not a working priority;and he and Chair French agreed they have no objection to Spokane Valley and County staff working on some sort of joint use agreement and City Manager Jackson agreed it is feasible to start working on that, and to come back to council with questions and to start the process. The group appeared to be in agreement to start working on a joint use agreement. 5. Transportation Benefit District(TBD) Regarding forming a Transportation Benefit District, Commissioner Mielke reported that to form a district,the Board of County Commissioners must pass a resolution; and said they would like indications of the various jurisdiction's view on this; that people want to see a plan before committing to a district; and asked whether we want to come together and try to develop a transportation maintenance plan to cover those needs on a regional basis, and said he is working on sending a letter within the next week or so, to ask if Spokane Valley is interested in participating in a group that would sit down for a period of time and try to develop a transportation maintenance plan to take to the voters; that it would likely take nine months to develop a proposal to take to the voters; and that the Board would ask the same question to the other jurisdictions; that once the Board gets input, the Board would pass a resolution that no fees would be assessed without a public vote and the purpose would be to develop a plan; and if there was no plan by the end of the specified time,the district would be dissolved. Mayor Towey said he would like to finalize the City's 2012 budget before making a decision about a TBD, as well as determine the conditions of the roads and of the needed revenues;that the City has not determined if it needs a TBD,but does not feel there is a pressing need, and Commissioner Mielke acknowledged that jurisdictions are finding themselves in a deficit in terms of road preservation. Chair French suggested revisiting this topic after the first of the year after Spokane Valley has passed its 2012 budget, and Mayor Towey said he would be comfortable with that. There being no further business,the meeting adjourned at approximately 12:12 p.m. Thomas E.Towey,Mayor ATTEST: Christine Bainbridge,City Clerk Special Joint Meeting Minutes of August 31,2011 Page 6 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT MINUTES SPOKANE VALLEY CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING STUDY SESSION FORMAT Spokane Valley City Hall Council Chambers Spokane Valley,Washington September 6,2011 6:00 p.m. Attendance: Councilmembers Staff Tom Towey,Mayor Mike Jackson,City Manager Gary Schimmels,Deputy Mayor Cary Driskell,City Attorney Bill Gothmann,Councilmember Mark Calhoun,Finance Director Dean Grafos,Councilmember John Hohman Community Dev. Director Brenda Grassel,Councilmember Mike Stone,Parks&Recreation Director Chuck Hafner,Councilmember Neil Kersten,Public Works Director Arne Woodard,Councilmember Morgan Koudelka, Sr.Administrative Analyst Carolbelle Branch,Public Information Officer Carrie Koudelka,Deputy City Clerk Mayor Towey called the meeting to order at 6:00 p.m. It was moved by Deputy Mayor Schimmels, seconded and unanimously agreed to approve the amended agenda. Mayor Towey read the proclamation for the Tenth Anniversary of 9-11 Remembrance. 1. Outside Agency Funding Requests—Mark Calhoun Mark Calhoun explained that the City has provided partial funding for local services and economic development agencies since incorporating in 2003. In the 2012 budget process, there currently is $150,000 set aside for Council to distribute to outside agencies.Each economic Development agency will have five minutes to present to Council. He said that on September 27, a motion will be considered for distributing the funds to the various agencies. Mr. Calhoun asked that Councilmembers submit their scoring sheet with recommended funding amounts to him by September 14. He will then return to Council the combined information and allocation averages on September 27 for Council to make final funding recommendations to be included in the 2012 budget. At Mayor Towey's invitation,the following economic development agencies made presentations to Council: (a) Greater Spokane, Inc., (b) Greater Spokane Valley Chamber of Commerce, (c) International Trade Alliance, (d) Spokane Valley Heritage Museum,(e)HUB Sports Center,(f)Valleyfest. 4. Commute Trip Reduction(CTR)—Morgan Koudelka Sr. Administrative Analyst Koudelka explained the CTR program is a state program designed to reduce the number of vehicle miles traveled and single occupant trips that occur throughout the state that applies to counties with an urban density. He said within those counties, all employers with 100 and more employees are required to have a CTR program. Within Spokane County, the cities with an affected employer contracts with the County for CTR program oversight services.He said the contracts are for two years and they coincide with the state's biennial budget. The agreement passes along Spokane Valley's allocated funds of$62,390 to Spokane County for providing oversight services. Mr. Koudelka said there are no substantive changes from the last Interlocal agreement. Councilmember Woodard asked that the "number of trips to reduce" of 26 be clarified. Mr. Koudelka introduced Aurora Crooks from the CTR office of Spokane County who explained it refers to the number of trips to reduce per day and that the number came from the state based on a 2009 survey conducted, and that the results of the survey goals were established to reduce the drive-alone rate by 10% or vehicle miles travelled by 13%. She explained the calculations are based on the number of employees at an affected work site who begin work between 6:00 a.m.and 9:00 a.m. and work 35 hour per week for twelve consecutive months,so not all businesses Council Study Session Minutes September 6,2011 Page 1 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT are included in the criteria. The Interlocal agreement is for two years and mandated by the State of Washington. Mayor Towey reiterated that Spokane Valley would be passing along our portion of the CTR funds to the County for managing the program rather than Spokane Valley managing the program. Councilmember Gothmann said municipalities have to be in a CTR program even if they do not have 100 employees.It was the consensus of Council to place the interlocal agreement on the next consent agenda for approval consideration. 2. City Manager's Presentation of the Preliminary 2012 Budget—Mike Jackson City Manager Jackson said that we are in an enviable position in that we are able to balance our budget and have healthy reserves; however, he said that does not mean we do not have challenges. He said Council has been heavily involved in the budget process and we are well ahead of schedule to meet the mandate to deliver a budget to Council sixty days before the end of the fiscal year.Mr. Jackson said the 2012 preliminary budget does not have the same line-item detail as the budget presented at the retreat but he can get copies of the retreat budget to Council if they need another. He also mentioned they should have their Business Plan with them for the budget discussions as a companion document because it defines the size of our work force,work programs and department goals. Mr. Jackson said there were several meetings with the Finance Committee and in the future, they may begin to report those activities regularly to Council so everyone is aware of the work and outcome of those meetings.Many of the fiscal policies originated in the Finance Committee meeting discussions, along with new recommendations for 2012.Mr.Jackson said public hearings are scheduled for September 27th and October 11th,with a first reading of the budget ordinance on October 25th and a second reading on November 15th.He said the fiscal policies are a critical part of the budget process because they help to guide us and ensure the City remains sustainable. He said the City continues to maintain basic service levels with reduced resources and that the proposed 2012 budget is less than the adopted 2011 budget. He said Council asked that the 2012 budget be only 1% more than the 2011 budget and we were able to do better. He said we continue to minimize personnel costs and overhead by contracting for many services. He said we should start to think about the cost of contract services and that initially the City thought by contracting for services we would save money and have flexibility in difficult economic times. He said we have not made adjustments to contract services and have put the most pressure on the general fund budget without knowing how much pressure our contract service providers are putting on their budgets or keeping their costs down. Mr. Jackson said we continue to leverage City funds with grant opportunities and we have very low debt.He said we intend to maintain a minimum general fund ending balance of 15%of revenues through 2015, which we exceeded this year and we are looking to increase the ending fund balance if possible because he said 15% is not enough to get through the kind of economic crisis we are in today. Mr. Jackson said we intend to maintain our service level stabilization fund at $5.4 million through 2014 and we have started this year to transfer 40% of the ending fund balance exceeding $26 million, to street capital on an on-going basis,. He said in looking at our law enforcement contract, we can settle our City books in the first quarter, but many of our bills do not come due for a couple of years. We set that figure at 40%, which gives us room if we have additional costs incurred from a previous year. As an example, we just received the 2010 settle and adjust bill from the County for law enforcement services. Mr. Jackson said Council has decided to hold the 2012 property tax levels to $10,750,000, which is the same as the 2011 rates. He said 2012 is not a growth year, but rather a year to stabilize and watch our reserves. We continue to face challenges in funding street preservation to maintain our streets and in the next few months, Public Works will present their revised Street Master Plan that will tell us how much money we need each year for street preservation. He said in addition, we hope to develop a plan that will clearly define the preservation element in all street capital projects so we can see the impact on an annual basis. He said we anticipate the costs may increase due to the number of roads in the previous street master plan that still need repair. Council Study Session Minutes September 6,2011 Page 2 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT He said in the 2012 budget, they divided the expenses into "recurring" and "non-recurring" categories to make it easier for Council and staff to see the money needed for basic operations each year. He said for 2012, he is proposing not to appropriate the ending fund balance in the budget to give the City a little more security. We cannot spend the ending fund balance unless Council makes specific appropriations. In recognition of that, he proposes a 1% contingency fund. Councilmember Grassel asked if they will still see the carry-over amount from year to year and where that will be in the budget if it is not included in the ending fund balance.Mr. Jackson said page 11 shows "Total Sources" of$61,482,961 as the amount of the general fund that the City would adopt if we included the beginning fund balance, but because we propose not to include the beginning fund balance,the total general fund appropriations would be $35,196,500. Councilmember Grassel said it would be nice to see that additional fund.Mr. Jackson said it will be denoted as the ending fund balance but the ordinance for adoption will not include it in the general fund. He said they also removed the forecast from the proposed budget but kept it in the Business Plan because it is a prediction and typically based on conservative numbers. He said forecasts can be manipulated to look however we want depending on the numbers we enter into it. He said it is a very useful tool and they will still use it in the Business Plan but he does not think it belongs in the budget document.Mayor Towey said he thinks it is a good tool and it makes sense to have it in the Business Plan. Councilmember Hafner said he thinks the most important thing is to use realistic figures in the forecast.Councilmember Grafos said he thinks the projection should be in the budget because it shows the operating expenses of the City and he does not think it hurts anything to include it in the budget because it provides an overview of the direction of the City. Councilmember Gothmann said he has seen it used more as a political tool than as a guide to the Council. He thinks it is a useful tool for Council to see the direction we are headed, but any figure can be plugged in which may or may not be realistic. He said he thinks it should be in the Business Plan. Councilmember Woodard said he wants it in the Business Plan. Mayor Towey said the Business Plan is open to the public and is an important document to gauge what we are going to do in the future and to tell us if need to make adjustments.Mr. Jackson said we will leave the forecast out of the budget at this time and if Council wants to change that later, we can change it. Mr. Jackson said we are $164,000 below our 2011 budget without any reductions in service and with 3.6%inflation over the twelve months prior to July as indicated in the Consumer Price Index.He said this reduced budget also includes over$100,000 in funds for maintenance of the new Greenacres Park and the televising of Council meetings. He said we are actually making expansions to service but still reducing our budget. We contract for police services and have library and fire districts but we are still operating below the normal employee count for a major city. The proposed budget includes a 2.5% Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) for all employees. In 2011, non-union employees received no COLA, union employees received 2.5% as negotiated in their 2010-2012 union contract. Mr. Jackson said capital project funds can be appropriated for street capital projects at Council discretion. He added there is no increase in the property tax levy, but moderate growth and cost increases are predictable and we cannot always hold operational costs to the level of reduction achieved this year.He went over some highlights of 2011, including Greenacres Park and televising Council meetings, removing SARP from the Comprehensive Plan and making changes to the development code. He said we are actively pursuing possible changes to City Hall and moving the permit center, and made progress on the winter roads maintenance plan by purchasing a shop and maintenance equipment. He said while we are able to fund on-going street maintenance, street preservation is a challenge. We maintain over 437 miles of roadway and the objective is to preserve roads before they need complete replacement. Mr. Jackson said the 2012 budget is balanced and Council goals for 2012 include monitoring wastewater issues,pursuing solid waste,reviewing and evaluating development regulations,developing the Shoreline Master Program, pursuing a legislative capital budget request, creating an economic development plan, and breaking the plan into short-term actions and long-term direction. He said that because law enforcement and other public safety contracts represent a large proportion of our budget,we will continue to monitor the costs. Councilmember Hafner asked how street preservation will be addressed. Mr. Jackson said Public Works is working on a revised master plan that should provide data to test Council Study Session Minutes September 6,2011 Page 3 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT the validity of the plan and then we need to continue to monitor and account for the street preservation cost in our projects. He said if not money is not available in the budget, we need to consider future funding sources. Councilmember Woodard asked for an explanation as to the increase of 54% on page 53 when there was a reduction in employees from eleven to six. He said on page 55 there is a similar example where the increase is 33% with a reduction in employees. Mr. Jackson said he and Finance Director Calhoun will carefully study those figures and bring information back to Council. Councilmember Gothmann said in 2011 we had $970,000 as a contingency budget for law enforcement services for possible settlement for 2006 and prior years and it is reduced to $53,000 for 2012.He asked if our exposure has decreased in Law Enforcement.Mr.Jackson said our exposure has not changed, but we changed the way we budget for law enforcement by forecasting our best prediction for the costs and if the costs exceed that amount, we will come back to Council for discussion and make a decision to transfer money. Councilmember Gothmann asked if we are contracting for broadcasting services. Mr. Jackson said we do contract for broadcasting but have staff involvement as well.He said he may be back before Council in the future to discuss the law enforcement services contract and because we recently received a settle and adjust that is a significant increase. He said we are currently reviewing the charges, but he said he does not want Council to be surprised if we come back to discuss 2012 increases. Councilmember Grassel asked for the healthcare increases for employees. Finance Director Calhoun said the increase is approximately 10% for medical and 3%for vision and dental.He said they should have the final numbers from AWC by October. Councilmember Grassel said that at the budget retreat she thought they discussed keeping the COLA at a 1% increase for non-union employees in keeping with the overall 1%increase to the budget. She said she does not think there is a 2.5% increase in the cost of living and that Spokane Valley is not in line with the national trend.Mayor Towey said the intent of the Finance Committee was to look at the COLA from year to year and the original intent of the COLA is based on inflation and would be compatible to the inflation factor. He said he read that the inflation factor for last year was 3.84% and if we look at that, then a 2.5% COLA is justified. He said as a Council we should look at and analyze the cost of living each year to determine a COLA percentage. Councilmember Grafos said the CP1W, the urban cost of living,is annually adjusted and is the same formula used for Social Security. He said for 2009 through projected 2011 we are at 2.9% and it will probably be 1.7% for 2012 and he said we should stay at a 1% COLA across the board and 1%for salary increases. Mayor Towey said the current union contract runs through 2012 but they can discuss it when the contract expires. Councilmember Grassel said she was stating the 1%increase apply to non-union employees. Mr. Jackson said historically non-represented staff has been treated the same as represented staff to be fair, including benefits,vacation,etc., so as not to have to maintain different classification levels. Councilmember Woodard addressed page 7 and the Hotel/Motel tax fund and asked how to use those funds in ways that might bring more economic development. Mr. Jackson said Finance Director Calhoun will bring information forward during the budget process to discuss further and provide a more thorough review. He said they will also provide a full report of health and benefit costs so Council can look closer at those figures. Mayor Towey called for a break at 7:58 p.m. The meeting reconvened at 8:12 p.m. 3.Building and Land Use Permitting Process Revisions—John Hohman Community Development Director Hohman informed Council of the twelve-step program he has developed as an action plan to improve service to the community, called Roadmap for Enhanced Permitting. Mr. Hohman went through his presentation and said the department is comprised of three divisions: building, development engineering, and planning. He said we added development engineering in 2007 to streamline staff interaction and communication. He said we removed it from Public Works to consolidate the permitting under one director.The traffic engineering review board is still in Public Works but they have worked out a process where development engineering is the coordinator for traffic related items, but Public Works does the review. He said the management structure consists of the Council Study Session Minutes September 6,2011 Page 4 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT director and three managers: a Senior Development Engineer, a Planning Manager and a Building Official with the intent being that any manager can cross over to assist customers in any division of the department. Mr. Hohman said the biggest challenge they face is to change the perception in the community and get to the root of the problems to make corrective changes. He said another big challenge is the development code and changes they need to make.He said he wants to make the code easy for staff to implement and enforce, and easy for customers to understand. He said he met with staff to identify expectations and has emphasized that our customers are our primary focus. He plans to implement staff organizational changes to consolidate similar duties and provide a structured and disciplined supervision role. It is important to organize forms and procedures and purge old forms as updates occur. He said he hopes to improve communication with the development community by holding community forums to start a dialog with the community and try to improve its perception of the City. He said he plans to work with economic development partners such as Greater Spokane Incorporated and the Valley Chamber of Commerce to reach out to businesses and small businesses to help move projects forward. He said with regard to division prioritization,permitting will be the primary focus of staff and he would like to expand express permitting to include sign permits, approach permits, right-of way permits and other easier to review permits.He said he plans to implement a counter plan review to issue permits within a matter of hours rather than days or weeks. He said they will review and revise the development code and relocate the permit center and consolidate staff to allow better supervision. Mr. Jackson said in looking at relocating the permit center and consolidating reception and permitting, we would need to relocate the finance department and look at our time commitment in this building. He said we would need a new contract with WEB Properties and we would be looking at a fairly long-term commitment to make the changes. Our current contract ends March 31, 2013. Mr. Hohman said they will implement a new permit tracking system that will allow supervisors to assign work, track progress, and allow management to know who is working on a specific project and its status. He said they will implement performance measures and they will continue staff coaching and customer service training. 5.Advance Agenda—Mayor Towey N/A 6. Council Check-in—Mayor Towey Councilmember Grafos said Council is not setting aside the quiet zone issue and would like staff to present a complete packet to them and then have a bus tour to take Council through each crossing because he said he thinks it would be enlightening for the Council.Mr. Jackson said Interim Deputy City Manager Crum is researching the issue and we will bring information to Council in October with a scope of work for Council discussion. 7. City Manager Comments City Manager Jackson said he has been working with the County and the City of Spokane on an extension of our agreement for solid waste and he proposes they mail a draft extension to other cities for staff review and then bring that back to Council for consideration. He said the extension would run through November 16,2014.It was the consensus of Council to proceed as suggested. Councilmember Woodard said he is concerned we will lose negotiating leverage with a three year extension. Councilmember Grafos said he would like Public Works to look at the intersection of Appleway and Thierman to see if another left turn lane can be created heading east on Appleway turning north on Thierman. He also asked if they can look at the school speed limit signs on Fourth between University and Bowdish because trees block the signs from view.Mr. Jackson said staff will look into those issues. Mr. Jackson mentioned they discussed animal control at the joint meeting with the County Commissioners and said they will meet with the City of Spokane after September 20th to discuss the fees and charges and said he will report back to Council after that meeting. They also talked about the Old Milwaukee right-of-way and said there is joint interest in pursuing the corridor as a greenway and will have Public Works create a sketch to get an idea as to what Council is looking for and we will invite Council Study Session Minutes September 6,2011 Page 5 of 6 Approved by Council: DRAFT Commissioner Mark Richard to the Council meeting to get clarification and move the project along. He said information will be brought to Council regarding the Transportation Benefit District (TBD) so both Council and staff are fully aware of the cost. Public Works is working on the street master plan and that will be a good time to discuss the TBD. He said staff is currently reviewing the settle and adjust for the 2010 law enforcement services. He also received correspondence from Rose Dempsey from the Clean Air Agency asking to come to Council to discuss the indirect source rule and its regulation. He said at Council direction he will schedule a presentation from one of the board members for a future meeting. Council concurred. 8. Executive Session: Performance Review of a Public Employee [RCW 42.30.110(1)(g)] It was moved by Deputy Mayor Schimmels, seconded and unanimously agreed to adjourn into executive session for roughly 15 minutes to discuss the performance review of a public employee, and that there will not be any decision after. Council adjourned into executive session at 9:13 p.m. At approximately 9:30 p.m., City Manager Jackson announced the meeting would be extended thirty minutes. At 10:11 p.m., Mayor Towey declared Council out of executive session, and it was moved by Deputy Mayor Schimmels, seconded, and unanimously agreed to adjourn. The meeting adjourned at approximately 10:12 p.m. ATTEST: Thomas E.Towey,Mayor Christine Bainbridge,City Clerk Council Study Session Minutes September 6,2011 Page 6 of 6 Approved by Council: CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY Request for Council Action Meeting Date: September 27, 2011 City Manager Sign-off: Item: Check all that apply: ❑ consent ❑ old business ® new business ❑ public hearing ❑ information ❑ admin. report ❑ pending legislation AGENDA ITEM TITLE: First Reading Proposed Ordinance 11-013 Amending SVMC Relative to City Treasurer GOVERNING LEGISLATION: SVMC 2.40.010, 2.40.020, 3.10.010, 3.10.100, 3.15.040. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: On August 9, 2011, staff provided Council with information regarding the proposed ordinance which would allow the City to comply with State law and accurately reflect the City's practice. BACKGROUND: The existing language in SVMC 2.40.010, 2.40.020, 3.10.010, 3.10.100, and 3.15.040 contain provisions relating to the position and duties of the city treasurer. The City does not employ a person with the title of City Treasurer. Instead, it has been the practice of the City to have the Finance Director fulfill these duties. However, some provisions in State law refer to a City Treasurer, so it is helpful to keep the reference to the City Treasurer in the Code. The terms "City Treasurer" and "Finance Director" are used interchangeably in various places, so both terms should be retained. As such, Staff recommends this amendment be adopted to ensure compliance with State law, provide clarity, and accurately reflect the City's practice. Staff views this as a housekeeping item. OPTIONS: 1) Motion to advance to a second reading; 2) Request that additional changes be made to proposed ordinance. RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Move to advance Ordinance 11-013 to a second reading. BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Anticipated to be revenue neutral.

Shoreline Master Program Notification was received from the Department of Ecology that the City of Spokane Valley had been informally offered the grant to update the Shoreline Master Program. The Contract is under review by DOE staff in Olympia and in the process of being finalized. A Council update was provided on July 19, 2011 to introduce the Preliminary draft Goals and Policies. Comments received at that time will be reviewed by the Planning Commission and Council during the public review process, while the issue raised regarding the gravel pits is currently under review by the City Attorney's Office. D partment-Vie Energy Grant Public Works continues to implement transportation projects that will result in energy conservation and carbon footprint reduction. Washington State Energy Strategy Update Process The Washington State Energy Strategy update process provided an update to the legislature and the Governor December 1, 2010. The update was not intended to be a comprehensive revision. The full revision is expected to be delivered to the legislature and the Governor in December 2011. The meetings for the full revision began in January and are scheduled throughout 2011. The topic of the meetings continues to be transportation so no action other than monitoring the Department of Commerce web-site has been required so far this year. Bike/Pedestrian Plan (BPMP) Staff held a public hearing on the BPMP on July 7th. The Planning Commission heard from many residents supporting the BPMP. The Planning Commission voted unanimously in favor of the BPMP. ADA Study The ADA survey work group has completed their analysis of the compiled results.

Historically the audit entails in the neighborhood of 850 auditor hours so we don't anticipate the audit will be completed until later this fall. 2011 Budget Amendments A few amendments are being prepared for the 2011 budget as adjustments are needed for a number of capital projects. These include the purchase of the street/storm water maintenance facility and potentially some of the capital projects discussed at recent council meetings. Council will review the amendment at the following meetings: October 25 Public hearing November 8 First reading on proposed ordinance amending the 2011 Budget December 13 Second reading on proposed ordinance amending the 2011 Budget 2012 Budget Preparation At the June 14, 2011, Council retreat a preliminary 2012 Budget Worksheet was presented by staff and at the August 9, 2011 Council meeting, refined estimates of 2012 revenues and expenditures were presented. Work continues on budget development and four future opportunities for the Council to review the 2012 Budget include: September 27 Public hearing #1 on 2012 Budget October 11 Public hearing #2 on 2012 Budget October 25 First reading on proposed ordinance adopting the 2012 Budget November 15 Second reading on proposed ordinance adopting the 2012 Budget 2012 Property Tax Levy A significant part of the budget development process is levying property taxes which in 2012 are expected to account for approximately 31% of recurring General Fund revenues. Council discussions specifically related to this topic will take place at the following meetings: October 11 First reading of ordinances levying 2012 property taxes and confirming tax levy. October 25 Second reading of ordinances levying 2012 property taxes and confirming tax levy. 11SV-FS21Userslmcalhoun\Finance Activity Reports1201112011 08.docx Page 1 Outside Agency Funding in the 2012 Budget The City has historically provided funding for local organizations involved in either social services or economic development activities and the preliminary 2012 Budget currently has $15Q000 collectively available for this. The schedule leading to awarding funds is as follows: August 30 Social service agency presentations to Council September 6 Economic development agency presentations to Council September 14 Council remits funding recommendations to Finance Department September 27 Council makes final determination of awards Financial Reports (pages 4— 12) Reports reflecting a budget to actual comparison of revenues and expenditures at August 31, 2011 are included on pages 4 and 5 with related footnotes on page 6. Noteworthy here is: • Property taxes are paid to the Spokane County Treasurer's Office in two installments - on April 30 and October 31. At this point the County has remitted to the City the first-half taxes and we won't likely receive any further substantial remittances until October. • Sales taxes receipts are expected to be close to the projected budget as the 2011 estimate was reduced based on 2010 experience. Actual sales tax receipts for the first six months of 2011 are running 4.40% ahead of 2010. • Gambling tax receipts are expected to be near budgeted amounts for 2011 with the majority of gambling tax coming from three casinos, each of which is open and operating at this time. • investment earnings are likely to be less than projected in our 2011 budget as interest rates are down dramatically from prior years. The City will explore the option of investing in instruments backed by the federal and/or state government to increase our return. • As of August 31, 2011, the City had a total of $49.7 million in investments including $44.7 million held by the Local Government Investment Pool managed by the WA State Treasurer's Office and $5.0 million in Banner Bank CDs (page 7). • Total sales tax receipts (page 8) received by the City, including general sales taxes, criminal justice sales taxes and public safety sales taxes are $9.68 million or 4.40% greater than for the same 7-month period in 2010. You'll note that receipts for the months of May, June and July are up significantly over those of the previous year. The increase for this three-month period is likely due to a Department of Revenue tax amnesty program that was in place for the three-month period ending April 30, 2011, in which nearly 8,900 business (state-wide) paid $320.7 million in state and local back taxes. Of the total, $56.8 million is local tax that has been forwarded to counties and cities beginning with the May 2011 sales tax distribution and concluding with the July 2011 distribution. We currently have no way of knowing to what extent our May through July remittances have been influenced by the amnesty distribution as the State has provided no such information. Noteworthy here is that August receipts were $79,316 or 5.5% greater than those for the same period last year. Because the August receipt falls outside the aforementioned amnesty program this suggests the August 2010 to August 2011 increase in activity reflects an improved business/sales climate, \\SV-FS21Users\mcalhoun\Finance Activity Reports1201112011 08.docx Page 2 Economic Indicators Pages 9 through 11 provide information pertaining to three different sources of tax revenue that provide a good indicator of the health and direction of the overall economy. 1. Sales taxes (page 9) provide a sense of how much individuals and businesses are spending on the purchase of goods. 2. Hotel / Motel taxes (page 10) provide us with a sense of overnight stays and visits to our area by tourists or business travelers. 3. Real Estate Excise taxes (page 11) provide us with a sense of real estate sales. Page 9 provides a monthly history of general sales tax receipts (not including public safety or criminal justice) beginning with the first remittance received in May 2003. • Compared with the same 7-month period in 2010 our collections have increased by $374,720 or 4.60%. • Tax receipts peaked in 2007 at $17.4 million and dropped off dramatically in the subsequent three years. • Receipts in 2011 are similar to those of 2005/2006. Page 10 provides a monthly history of hotel/motel tax receipts beginning with the first remittance in May 2003. • Compared with the same 7-month period in 2010 our collections are nearly identical to those of last year with an increase thus far of$529 or 0.23%. • Collections peaked in 2007 and 2008 and dropped off in the subsequent three-years but not as significantly as sales taxes. Page 11 provides a monthly history of real estate excise tax receipts beginning with the first remittance in March 2003. • Compared with the same 8-month period in 2010 our collections have increased by $12,576 or 1.85%. • Tax receipts peaked in 2007 at nearly $2.6 million, decreased precipitously in 2008 and 2009, and appear to have leveled off in 2010 and 2011. Debt Capacity and Bonds Outstanding Page 12 provides information on the City's debt capacity, or the dollar amount of General Obligation (G.O.) Bonds the City may issue, as well as an amortization schedule of the bonds the City currently has outstanding. • The maximum amount of G.O. bonds the City may issue is determined by the assessed value and the 2010 assessed value for 2011 property taxes was $7,140,947,644. The City currently has $8,155,000 of nonvoted G.O. bonds outstanding which represents 7.61% of our nonvoted bond capacity, and 1.52% of our total debt capacity for all types of bonds. • The $8,155,000 of bonds the City currently has outstanding is part of the 2003 nonvoted (LTGO) bond issue. Of this amount: o $6,380,000 remains on bonds issued for the construction of CenterPlace.

Lyons attended numerous National Night Out get-togethers in the Spokane Valley area on August 2nd. The evening began at Target, where members of their team hosted an event for the Spokane Valley community. Attending the various parties provided an excellent opportunity to meet residents of the Spokane Valley and gave time for them to ask questions or discuss issues they have in their neighborhoods. Page 1 The Joint Public Safety Leadership Forum was held in early August, which Chief VanLeuven attended. Chief Van Leuven attended a meeting in mid-August regarding the next Local/State Homeland Security Grant. T - - "'41'x, • 000 idee - r CBS •11111i,; .may , low A new flag was presented to Sheriff Knezovich and Chief VanLeuven at the Spokane Valley Police Department in early August by the Spokane Valley Sunshine Rotary Club. The Rotary Club has been gracious in past years to provide new flags to the police department,which is very much appreciated. Chief VanLeuven provided a tour of the Valley Precinct and Sheriffs Training Center to the City of Spokane Valley's new Finance Director, Mark Calhoun. Chief VanLeuven also facilitated a meeting between City Manager Mike Jackson and the Sheriff's Sex Crimes Unit to provide an overview of the unit and outline services provided to the City of Spokane Valley by that unit. Deputy City Manager Roger Crum was also given a tour of the Spokane Valley Precinct later in August. Chief VanLeuven attended the Unity in the Community event held in Riverfront Park in Spokane. Later that Saturday, he also attended the annual Edgecliff Rock for Success Celebration hosted by Edgecliff SCOPE at the Park Place Retirement Center. Chief VanLeuven participated in the City of Pullman's Washington Association of Sheriff and Police Chiefs LEMAP (Loaned Executive Management Assistance Program) certification at the end of August. LEMAP provides agencies an opportunity to take a step towards excellence by subjecting agencies to a complete review of their organizational structure. The goal of the LEMAP program is to provide law enforcement administrators an opportunity to have a critical review of their organization through the eyes of peer professionals. The resulting report should serve as a guide to identify areas in need of strengthening and highlight positive or innovative programs existing within the agency. LEMAP reviews are conducted by volunteer law enforcement professionals. A full LEMAP review will look at the twenty major functions outlined in the WASPC Accreditation Program. This was an excellent opportunity for Chief VanLeuven to participate in, as the Spokane Valley Police Department will be undergoing WASPC Accreditation at the end of September. Chief VanLeuven is also on both the LEMAP Committee and the Accreditation Committee. The COPS TV Program concluded their filming in the Spokane Valley in August. The film crew has worked with multiple agencies in the United States and understands our priority is the performance of our duties to the citizens in a safe manner. The goal was to promote the excellent staff and Page 2 professional work that is done everyday for the citizens by the employees of the Spokane County Sheriff's Office and the Spokane Valley Police Department.

Weed and Seed are honored to have been selected as a "Promising Practice" in the White House Neighborhood Initiative Report, Building Neighborhoods of Opportunity. We were one of five projects selected nationally and the hope is for other organizations working with revitalization in their communities to look at the great work done by all of you here in Spokane County and the Edgecliff neighborhood. S.C.O.P.E. Incident Response Team (SIRT) volunteers contributed 210 on-scene hours (including travel time) in August, responding to crime scenes, structure fires, motor vehicle accidents and providing traffic control. Of those hours, 121 hours were for incidents in the City of Spokane Valley. Total August volunteer hours contributed by SIRT, including training, stand-by, response and special events is 542 year-to-date total is 4,131 hours. The number of emergency responses in August was the largest number EVER in SIRT history,with 22 call outs. Add to that the 20 in July, which tied an earlier record, lends to a rather busy couple of months for SIRT volunteers. Year-to-date activity, in terms of the number of call outs, is up 17% over last year through August. Page 3 There were seven juveniles who ran away from their residence in Spokane Valley during the month of July 2011; five have returned home.

In the early morning hours in early August, a 26-year-old male suspect was driving his 1999 Subaru Impreza at a high rate of speed westbound when he lost control. The Impreza slid off the roadway striking a power pole, which caused a short power outage for some Spokane Valley residents. After striking the pole, the Impreza struck a Chevy Tahoe that was parked along the roadway. The Impreza continued to slide out of control and eventually came to rest in the driveway of 12924 E Stn Ave after impacting two parked vehicles there. The male suspect had a 32-year-old passenger in his vehicle. Both occupants were wearing their seatbelts. The sounds of the crashes woke several neighbors up. One of the neighbors saw one of the males get out of the Impreza and try to escape into a backyard. The other male was initially found unconscious in the vehicle. One of the neighbors contacted the fleeing male and told him to return to the vehicle. After they returned, the male suspect got the other male out of the vehicle and then they both fled the scene. However, they were both apprehended a short time later by responding law enforcement units. Both suspects were transported to Valley Hospital for treatment and in the end only received minor injuries from the collision. The male driver exhibited signs of intoxication and was placed under arrest for DUI. A blood sample was taken from him and will be sent to the Washington State Toxicology Laboratory for analysis. This process takes approximate six weeks to receive the results back. The male driver had a felony warrant out of Ellensburg for third degree assault and the male passenger had a local warrant for his arrest for possession of drugs with intent to deliver. After they were treated and released at the hospital, both individuals were booked into the Spokane County Jail on their warrants. Once the blood results on the driver come back, he potentially faces additional DUI and hit and run charges. Search Warrants For Delivery of Controlled Substances - Separate controlled substance/property crimes investigations by Detectives in the Investigative Task Force lead to the service of two search warrants in Spokane Valley for Delivery of a Controlled Substances. Members of the ITF conducted several controlled buys of marijuana from a male suspect over the past month. The male was located at the residence the morning of the service of the search warrant, where two ounces of marijuana (street value $650), $615.00 in U.S. currency, and a pistol were seized. The male suspect was arrested for Possession of a Controlled Substance with Intent to Deliver -Marijuana. The subject of the second search warrant is the subject of an ITF property crimes/drug investigation. Several controlled buys of Oxycodone by ITF investigators lead to the search warrant of this male's residence. Detectives from the ITF, as well as the Spokane Valley Police Property Crimes Unit, served a search warrant at the address. Numerous individuals were found inside the residence smoking Oxycodone with the male suspect's one-month old infant present. The male suspect was present and began to flee out the back window before noticing rear containment officers. The odor of Oxycodone smoke was so prevalent inside the residence that investigators were forced to open the doors and windows in order to vent the residence before proceeding with the search of the residence. Child Protective Services took custody of the infant child. Interviews revealed that the male suspect sells Oxycodone to up to 30 customers per day. The male suspect also accepts stolen property in return for Oxycodone. A loaded 12 Gauge shotgun, $243 in U.S. currency, and 290 30- mg Oxycodone pills, with a street value of$8600, were seized from the residence. The male suspect was arrested for Possession of a Controlled Substance (PCS) with Intent to Deliver - Oxycodone and Unlawful Possession of Firearm Second Degree. The infant's grandfather was present at the address and admitted to smoking Oxycodone as law enforcement was making entry. He was arrested for PCS Page 5 - Oxycodone. A female transient, was also present at the address and advised that she was 10 weeks pregnant, and admitted to smoking Oxycodone prior to the law enforcement making entry. She was arrested for PCS -Oxycodone and Suboxone. A 27-year-old male was present and admitted to smoking Oxycodone prior to law enforcement making entry. He was arrested for a DOC warrant as well as PCS - Oxycodone. Fatal Crash - Investigators reported a vehicle crash fatality on Broadway in early August. The 46- year-old driver suffered serious, but non life-threatening injuries when he lost control of his car at Broadway and Alki Way just before 6:00 am. His passenger, however, was pronounced dead at the scene. Witnesses put the speeds of the vehicle at between 70 and 100 mph just prior to the crash and investigators also believe alcohol was a factor. Once released from the hospital, the driver was booked into Spokane County Jail for Vehicular Homicide. Pedestrian Hit & Killed By Vehicle In Spokane Valley - A 48-year-old Spokane Valley man is dead after a freak accident near 32nd and Glenn in the Spokane Valley. A 36-year-old female from Spokane was driving a white SUV when she struck and killed the man in the front yard of his home. Officials on scene say the female driver confused the brake pedal and gas pedal before hitting the man. The female driver had an instructional permit and was driving with a licensed driver, a family member and a baby. The male victim's young children were inside the home when he was killed. The female driver submitted a blood sample and is cooperating with the investigation. Officials say speed, alcohol and drugs do not seem to be factors in the accident. Valley Elder Scammed - An 84-year-old Spokane Valley woman was scammed out of more than a thousand dollars by a con artist claiming she had won a new car. The victim was called by a suspect claiming to represent Morgan Stanley International. He told her she had won a new car and only had to pay them sales tax to collect it. In March, the victim sent them a $500 wire transfer, $475 in PayPal cards and a $500 money order to an address in Jamaica. Needless to say, the car has not arrived. The daughter who filed the fraud report with Crime Check reported that the suspect continues to call her mother daily seeking more money. Such swindles are nearly impossible to investigate and prosecute because the suspects are operating outside American law enforcement's reach. Prevention is a much more successful approach to combat this type of swindle. Adult children of elderly parents should discuss with them how these types of frauds can occur by phone, mail or e- mail, and should insist that elders discuss with them any contest, lottery or other prize offers before sending any money for "taxes," "border fees" or other claims of money owed. These con artists target the elderly and once money is sent, it is never recovered. Dad Arrested for Dealing - A 56-year-old Spokane man was arrested after a sheriff's deputy found cocaine, a drug ledger and the man's seven-year-old son in his car during a traffic stop. The male suspect was booked into the Spokane County Jail for Possession of Cocaine with Intent to Deliver and Third-Degree Driving while License Suspended. The boy was released to the suspect's brother. Traffic Deputy Jeff Thurman was westbound on Sprague about 3:45 p.m. when he saw a gray Ford pickup in front of him. He saw the truck start to turn south on Chronicle in front of eastbound traffic, then lurch back into the two-way turn lane to avoid a collision. Thurman stopped the truck and saw the driver reaching into the backseat. He called for another deputy and had the male suspect extend his hands out the window. During follow-up discussion, Thurman noted that the male was sweating profusely, was extremely fidgety and that his speech was very rapid. He arrested him for the driver's license violation and found a paper bindle containing cocaine in his clothing. He subsequently found a bag containing another four bindles of cocaine on the back floorboard. There was a card in the center console that appeared to be a drug ledger, and further investigation revealed that the male Page 6 suspect had lost his job in January and started selling cocaine in July to pay bills. The male suspect told Thurman that he had just picked up his son and that no drug sales occurred in his presence. In addition to the traffic misdemeanor and drug felony, Thurman issued the male suspect an infraction for Failure to Wear a Seatbelt and Failure to Provide Proof of Insurance. Bicyclist Struck By Vehicle - Emergency crews were on the scene of a crash involving a bicyclist and a vehicle at Dishman Mica & Appleway in Spokane Valley. It appears the bicyclist was traveling westbound against traffic on Appleway when he attempted to cross the intersection at Dishman Mica and was hit. We're told that the victim's injuries are serious, including possible internal injuries. Officers report he was not wearing a helmet. Although the investigation is ongoing the bicyclist told authorities at the hospital that it was his fault and not the driver's. And the Crashes Keep Continue - Spokane County Sheriff's Office and Spokane Valley Police traffic investigators responded to five major crashes last week and it appears the vehicle mayhem has not stopped. An 18-year-old female from Hayden, ID pulled out in front of a Spokane Valley Police sergeant causing a collision. Sgt Mark Nygren was heading eastbound on Sprague Ave in his police vehicle approaching the Spokane Valley Police Station. The female had just let some pedestrians walk past her on the sidewalk and then pulled out from the police station driveway to make a left turn onto Sprague Ave. The patrol car struck the female's vehicle, a 1988 Honda Accord, in the driver's door. She did not suffer any serious injuries,just a minor cut to one of her wrists. Sgt Nygren did not receive any injuries. The airbags in the patrol car deployed due to the crash. Both vehicles had to be towed away from the scene. The female driver received a $175 traffic ticket for failing to yield the right of way. Later that same day, another vehicle failed to yield to the right of way and a collision occurred at the intersection of Broadway Ave and Progress Rd. This time, however, the injuries were more serious. A 46-year-old female of Spokane, was stopped at the stop sign northbound on Progress Rd at Broadway Ave. She was attempting to cross Broadway Ave when she pulled out in front of a 75- year-old male of Spokane Valley. He was driving a 2004 Honda scooter and wearing a helmet. The male struck the passenger side door of the female's 2002 Mazda Tribute. He was having difficulty breathing so medics had to intubate him. The female was not injured in the crash. The male victim died during the evening at the hospital from his injuries caused in the crash. The Spokane Medical Examiner's Office said the cause of death was blunt force trauma to the chest. The investigation into the collision continues. Mail Thief is Active in Valley - Numerous Spokane Valley residents living in the area of 14300 to 14600 East Sixth reported their mail being stolen from street-side rural mailboxes during afternoon and evening hours. Residents found their mail opened and tossed on the ground along the roadway. It was unknown if the thief found anything of value to steal, but identity theft suspects frequently target mail to obtain personal financial information which they then use to victimize the intended mail recipient. Outgoing personal checks provide thieves with the names, addresses and account numbers of checking account holders, and incoming mail can provide pre-approved loan applications which can be activated with a simple signature. Although financial institutions usually cover the victim's monetary loss, it can take months or years to fix the victim's credit history damaged by the suspect's thefts. Law enforcement professionals encourage all area residents to purchase a locking roadside mailbox to receive incoming mail on rural routes, or to rent a mailbox at the nearest post office. Outgoing mail containing checks or cash should always be deposited in the larger blue U.S. Postal Service mailboxes located at shopping malls, grocery stores or in front of post office annexes. Page 7 Ex Texts Lead to Mess - Officers were summoned to the area of Fourth and Sullivan in mid-August as 20 or more people fought in the street over a dispute between an "ex" and current boyfriend. One combatant was sent to a local hospital with a concussion and broken nose, but officers learned of no other serious injuries. Apparently, a dispute between a woman's two suitors led to a scheduled fight at a home in the area of Fourth and Sullivan. One combatant arrived to find the other having a party with numerous friends and allies in attendance. He left, retrieved his own cadre of friends and then returned. An agreed-upon fight between the two turned into a half dozen or more combatants in the street. The fight eventually moved to the Global Credit Union parking lot which is where officers found the mob when they arrived. Officers arrived to the disturbance call about 4 a.m. and spent the next five hours chasing down fleeing participants and investigating the matter. Because of the apparent serious injury to the one subject, Sheriff's Office Major Crimes Detectives were called out and assisted in the investigation. One juvenile combatant was arrested on an outstanding arrest warrant; however, the matter remains under investigation with pending charges. Source of "Boom" Identified - Spokane Valley police have recovered the remnants of an improvised explosive device that was detonated in the area of Sprague and Robie about 10:20 p.m. in mid-August. Numerous residents called 9-1-1 to report a bright flash and loud "boom," but officers were initially unsuccessful in locating any evidence that might explain the explosion. Evidence was recovered and was submitted to the Sheriff's Office Forensics Unit for examination. Officers hope to recover fingerprints or other evidence that will lead to identification of the person or persons responsible for constructing the device. Lt. Matt Lyons said that the IED had a fuse which was lit shortly before it was lifted aloft by a number of helium-filled balloons. While there was no anti- personnel component to the device, it could have caused injuries or a wildfire had it hit the ground before igniting. He also said that there was no apparent connection between this device and the IED recently found along the route of the Martin Luther King parade in Spokane. Police Chief Rick Van Leuven said that the incident would be investigated "to the greatest extent of our abilities." "We will do our utmost to identify the person or persons responsible for building and launching this device," he said. "I would welcome any information anyone has regarding these suspects." Information regarding the incident can be forwarded to investigators via Crime Check, 456-2233. Thank You's - Chief Van Leuven received a thank you letter from a citizen whom he had met with earlier in the month regarding concerns of suspicious activity they had in their neighborhood. The individual stated, "We appreciate your willingness to hear us. Thank you for your concern and help with this situation. Things have been more quiet lately and a lot less activity." Although Chief Van Leuven keeps a very busy schedule, he will try to find some time to spend a few moments with a member of the community in an effort to alleviate concerns and give encouragement on possible ways to improve the environment around their home with respect to neighborhood security. ************* Page 8 SHIIFF SPOKANE .fo 1014- SHERI -PQI(AHE gave- & SPOKANE VALLEY POLICE DEPARTMENT c7nvi1!o pou t attend the fall, 2011 ciTizENCADEmy /- © GET AN INSIDER'S VIEW OF MANY OF THE DEPARTMENTS WITHIN THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE lel w © RIDE ALONG WITH AN OFFICER ON THEIR SHIFT WHILE THEY ENFORCE THE LAW AND ANSWER 911 EMERGENCY CALLS © HEAR FIRST-HAND FROM PATROLMEN AND INVESTIGATORS ABOUT THE SERVICE THEY PROVIDE © SEE THE SPECIALTY UNITS THAT ENHANCE OUR ABILITY TO ENFORCE THE LAWS THAT KEEP OUR NEIGHBORHOODS SAFE © GET YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED ABOUT POLICING IN SPOKANE COUNTY BY THE OFFICERS WHO DO THE WORK WHEN: Every Thursday night beginning September 8th and ending October 27th, 8 days total.

A report to council on the updated pavement management program will be scheduled in the near future. CAPITAL PROJECTS (See attached Capital Projects Spreadsheet) STREET & STORMWATER MAINTENANCE ACTIVITY The following is a summary of Public Works/Contractor maintenance activities in the City of Spokane Valley for August 2011: Summer Street and Stormwater Maintenance Items: • AAA continues cleaning underground stormwater structures under the Vactoring Services Agreement. • AAA is sweeping arterials. • Geiger crew continues to mow dryland grass areas throughout the city. • Poe Asphalt completed several drywell and asphalt repairs and placed a 2" overlay on Fancher Road from Broadway Avenue to Trent. `Information in bold indicates updates 1 STORMWATER Small Improvement Projects These projects are individually estimated to be less than $30,000, to address street flooding problems and involve excavation work. Project bids received, Eller Corporation won bid, contract documents being routed for construction in Sept/Oct for the following projects: 1. 8th and Park — replace failing drainfield, provide improved treatment including swales if possible. 2. 11th and Herald — improve catchbasins and rehabilitate existing failing UIC. 3. 32nd and Bowdish intersection, north leg — mitigate ongoing stormwater ponding — work includes increasing capacity of existing drywell on south leg of intersection and installing new inlets on north leg and pipe to drywell on south leg of intersection. 4. Evergreen and 17th — replace existing failing drainfield, provide additional treatment through catchbasins. 5. Archery & Farr — improve capture of runoff through installation of improved inlet structures, mitigate for pine needle debris, and protect/improve existing drainfields. Possible award this year w/Contractor (Eller Corporation): 6. Woodward & 35th - replace existing failing drainfield, provide additional treatment through catchbasins. Projects Currently in Design and/or Property Acquisition: 7. Pines & Alki — Preliminary design started. Working with WSDOT MTCE on responsibility to replace drain rock and improve failing drywell. 8. Bettman/Dickey Culvert/Ditch re-establishment — Project to improve conveyance of stormwater from 14th to 11th. Site survey and geotechnical work completed, staff researched property issues and will be working on securing storm drainage easements. Staff met with Yellowstone Petroleum Pipeline to verify depth to their utility. 9. Thorpe Road Culvert Re-establishment — Parts of Chester Creek have escaped existing farmer-created floodways south of the city limits. Low-volume/shallow depth flows over a city-owned portion of Thorpe Road during the past several years have increased, especially this year with the wetter-than-normal spring weather. Staff developed two options to convey the low volume waters under Thorpe. Staff met with golf course owners to discuss the options. All agree that the creek banks upstream need to be maintained or constructed better, however this area is on private property, outside the City limits, and any project in this area would not be constructed before the next water year due to the federal and state permit processes as well as funding questions. Staff set up a meeting with the County's floodplain manager for 1 September to discuss the problems and potential project(s). Low-flows over Thorpe Road: It appears that 3 culverts were blocked by the addition of parking for the 9-hole par 3 course. The blockage appears to also cause Thorpe Road to flood more frequently. To deal with low-volume flows over Thorpe Road, staff suggests installing a new culvert at the low point in the road that would continue to route water onto the golf course. The golf course owners do not want the low-flow water on their course even though they have been receiving the flows to date and the golf course resides in the flood plain. `Information in bold indicates updates 2 10. Park and Valleyway— replace failing drainfield, provide improved treatment including swales if possible. Survey completed, looking at possibility of working with adjacent property owners on installing a swale. Stormwater Capital Improvement Projects These projects are estimated to be over $30,000, to address larger flooding and water quality problems, and/or make major improvements to bring systems closer to current standards. 1. 14th Avenue, Custer to Chronicle — mitigates erosion undermining existing City roadway, capture runoff, and eliminate outfall to waters of the state. Researching current system and ownership outside of the publicly owned right-of-way. Survey on street completed. Possible construction in 2012. 2. Broadway SW Upgrade (see CIP #153) 3. Dickey & 11th Stormwater Facility Improvements — Project to improve existing City property for regional stormwater infiltration. Site survey and geotechnical work completed, design in progress. 4. Sullivan Road Bridge Drain Retrofit Project - See CIP Project #150. 5. Stormwater Decant Facility— Proposed to be located at the new maintenance facility. Decanting catchbasin debris would decrease costs in handling debris by up to 80% by allowing water to be drained and disposed separately. The County Sanitary Sewer Utility has informed City staff that it will not accept liquids from catchbasin cleaning at this time. It appears that the County Sewer Utility is concerned about PCB pollutants and the inability to treat to a level acceptable by the State before discharge to the Spokane River. Staff is working to understand issues regarding PCB's and liquid disposal alternatives for the future decant facility. • Pines/Mansfield - swales (near Montgomery and behind fire station) - Work includes drilling new 3-foot diameter holes for better draining material in bottoms of swales and installing sod in damaged areas. Working on a change order with the landscape contract with ProCare, Inc. • Vactor Services 2012 Contract - Current contract ends December 2011 with no renewal options remaining. Staff is drafting a new bid package for a new 2012 contract. • Stormwater Structure Inspections - Student Interns have been hired to conduct structure inspections throughout the summer/fall. The inspections are identifying and prioritizing aging structures that are in need of repair or rehabilitation. The inspections will also collect data on the debris loads in individual structures, which will help determine efficient cleaning intervals. • Underground Injection Control (UIC) Assessment - Staff continues work on compliance requirements for the City's 7,350 drywells (UICs) and performing required assessments by February 2013. • 2012 Stormwater Fee Assessor Rolls Update - Staff is starting the process of updating stormwater fees to existing or new commercial properties for the 2012 Stormwater Fee Assessor Roll. • Ecology NPDES Permit Implementation Grant - 2011/2012 - $308k: The City received a $308k Ecology Grant; funding will need to be expended by June 2012. Staff is seeking Ecology approval to use funding to reimburse City for part of the sweeping operation costs this spring, summer, and fall. `Information in bold indicates updates 3 BRIDGE MAINTENANCE Specifications and bid packet covering Bridge Repair and Maintenance currently under review, should be issued later this summer. Sullivan Road over Trent (4501) repair and Sullivan SB over UPRR tracks (4507) expansion joint repairs received bids 7/8/11. West Company began repair work on August 15. Work was completed on August 26th. Some traffic loops were damaged during construction. West Company is working with the city to resolve the issues. SEWER PROJECTS • 2010 County Sewer Projects — Carry over West Farms, South Greenacres Phase 3, Cronk and Corbin are substantially complete; only minor punch list items remain. South Greenacres Phase 4 — Paving is complete. Contractor is working on some punch list items; swale installation change order on Mission still to be completed. • 2011 STEP sewer projects Green Haven `B' (SW Area) — Piping is complete, road grading has begun. Paving is currently scheduled for 8/5 and 8/15. Micaview `1' — Paving of City streets is complete. Some minor items remain; Barker road striping, possible ditch modifications. Green Haven `C' (NE Area) — Piping installation is in progress. Barker work expected to begin 8/8, paving scheduled for 9/6 and 9/27. Scheduled to be complete by 10/4/11. TRAFFIC • WTSC School Zone Beacon Grant The City was awarded two $7,500 grants to install new school zone beacons for Orchard Center Elementary and Chester Elementary. The beacons have been ordered, and installation is anticipated to begin in late September early October. GRANT APPLICATIONS TIB has issued a call for projects for this year. A few projects under consideration for this future call are: Mission Avenue Improvements — Flora to Barker (construction funding needed); Mansfield Avenue Connection — east of Pines Road (construction funding needed); Park Road Reconstruction — Broadway to Indiana (construction funding needed); Barker Road Improvements — Flora to Barker (design, right of way, and construction funding needed). Staff will bring this proposed project list to council for discussion. New Call for Projects • New Freedom Funds The STA Board approved our project in the amount of $252,009. However, we recently received word that the amount of New Freedom Funds available to the city has been reduced to $178,790 because of a previous commitment to the Aging and Long Term Care of Eastern Washington (ALTCEW). The grant has been approved. STA is drafting the agreement to award funds. `Information in bold indicates updates 4 • FY 2011 TIGER Discretionary Grant Program USDOT announced the TIGER III program, a competitive grant program for transportation projects. $527 million is available for this program nationwide. Eligible projects include roads and bridges, rail, transit buses and streetcars, ports, and bicycle and pedestrian paths. Winning projects typically are multi-modal, multi-jurisdictional or otherwise challenging to fund through existing programs. Staff is reviewing this grant program and may submit a preliminary application for the Sullivan Rd W Bridge Replacement Project. Preliminary applications are due October 3, 2011. If our preliminary application is approved, final applications are due October 31, 2011. `Information in bold indicates updates 5 August-11 0005 Pines/Manfield, Wilbur Rd to Pines 0063 Broadway Avenue Safety Project, Pines RD 0069 Park Rd Recon. #2 Brdwy& Ind.

The TIGER III program is similar to the ARRA federal stimulus funds that were dispersed over the past couple years and focuses on transportation projects that improve the long term economic competitiveness of the Nation and region. The application process opened on September 9th, 2011 with pre-applications due Monday, October 3rd, 2011 to USDOT. The pre-application serves as a threshold determination to verify basic project eligibility. If the project passes the pre-application review, final applications are due Monday October 31st, 2011. This is a very short turnaround time. Approximately $527 Million is available on a nationwide competitive basis. The minimum project award for urban governments is $10 million with a minimum 20% non-federal match. Staff has evaluated the grant criteria and funding restrictions and has determined the Sullivan Road West Bridge Project may be a competitive candidate for this grant. The project appears to fit well with many of the goals of the application criteria. However, the largest obstacle is the schedule. Prospective projects must be ready to obligate construction funds by June 30, 2013. The current schedule for the bridge project does not anticipate being construction ready until the beginning of 2014. The schedule is driven in large part by the extensive environmental review and permitting process. A very aggressive effort would be needed to get through this process quickly. Staff plans to submit the pre-application for this project by October 3. If a decision is made to proceed with the final application and the pre-application passes the initial USDOT review, a consultant would be needed to assist in preparing the final application in order to meet the October 31st deadline. Staff will research and bring to council at the next meeting the estimated cost for consultant assistance. OPTIONS: Information only RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Information only BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: If this grant opportunity is pursued, the city would be required to provide a non-federal match of 20%. Currently the estimated cost of the project is $19.7 million, of which $3.94 million would be needed for the local match. The $2M in state grant funds received from FMSIB would count towards this local match. The remaining $1.94 million would need to come from the City and/or another non-federal source. If the proposed TIGER application is developed, staff will coordinate with the Finance Department to identify funds to provide the needed match for the proposed project.

Current Schedule from FMSIB application did not anticipate CN Funding Obligation until late 2013. • $10 Million minimum grant award for urban areas. Current budget is $19.76M with $10M secured leaves balance of$9.76M. May need to reduce funds from other sources (Most likely BR grant). • Federal BR funding would likely not be counted as local match? Only non-federal funds count towards 20% local match. $2M from FMSIB should meet this requirements • Based upon reviewing funded applications from previous cycles, I suggest we not wait until October to start assembling background data required for final application. Successful applications were very well polished with extensive information to support project. I downloaded the successful applications from the NSC,King County South Park Bridge, and SR520 Floating Bridge from the previous TIGER Grant Calls for Projects. These provide a guide to the type and extent of information required for a successful application.

In response to his question I have attached two pieces of information that provide a good overview of appropriate uses: • A 5-page excerpt from "A Revenue Guide for Washington Cities and Towns" prepared by the Municipal Research and Services Center" (MRSC), that discusses the tax in terms of rates, how the tax can be used, and the role of a Lodging Tax Advisory Committee. • A 4-page excerpt from the MRSC web-site that provides questions posed by municipal entities across the State concerning appropriate uses of Lodging Tax, and MRSC's responses. Collectively these sources provide a framework from which the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee, City staff and the City Council can ascertain whether proposed uses meet the intended purpose behind the tax which is to pay for tourism promotion and for the acquisition and/or operation of tourism-related facilities.

This "special" tax is not credited against the state sales tax. Therefore, if a city levies this '. additional tax, the total tax on the lodging bill will increase by two percent. ! There are some exceptions: I a RCW 67.28.181(1)stipulates that this additional two percent tax may be levied as long as Ithe total tax rate under chapter 36.100 RCW(the public facilities district tax),chapter 82.08 ' RCW (the state sales tax), chapter 82.14 RCW (the city, county, and transit district sales ,'I , taxes), chapter 67.28 RCW (the hotel-motel tax chapter), and chapter 67.40 RCW (the convention and trade center tax)does not exceed 12 percent. (Note that the sales tax rate Iv.; i, for the Regional Transit Authority (Sound Transit} in portions of King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties is not included in making these calculations.} The limit for the total '1,@ •!' rate in Seattle is 15.2 percent, because the convention center tax is higher than in the rest of the county.'This means that most cities in King County may only levy a one percent tax and Seattle cannot levy any tax.12� �1 "ll. , 1 area fees are discussed on page 54. �t L Ch.34, Lof 1973,2nd ex.sess. .1.• , Ch,35,laws of 1998,§2. 12'RCW 67.40.090(2)(d). The statuses provide that the maximum rate in Seattle Is 15.2 percent, RCW 67.28.181(2)(c). ' 124At the time this statute was written,the sales tax in King County, excluding Seattle,was 8.2 percent. The convention center tax was 2.8 percent and the hotel-motel tax for the tingdome/new football stadium was two percent, makin the total rate 13 ercent. Subtractin the two ercent credit s g p g p against the state sales tax brought the total rate )1 • down to 11 percent. That meant that cities In tong County,other than Seattle,could levy a one percent hotel motel tax. at �4 '-::� # However,in 2000,King County voters approved an Increase In the transit tax by 0.2 percent. This would have raised lit the total rate that provides the limit for the hotel-motel texto 12,2 percent,and would thus lower the rate the cities could 1;t levy by 0.2 percent to 0.8 percent. Legislation was then passed that required an entity that passed a sales tax Increase, Ir . . which pushed the'total over the 12 percent limit,to exempt sales of Lodging from the increase.Ch.79, Laws of 2001, f. il and RCW 82.14.410. 61 30 A Revenue Guide for Washington Cities and Towns lkil .

Legislation enacted in 2007 expanded this definition so that hotel-motel tax revenues can now be ;?.'ilk: used not only on marketing special events and festivals but also on their operation. However, as .'t = it now stands,this more permissive language expires on June 30, 2013.13s • I � I " Because of the state constitutional gift of public funds prohibition,' a city should enter Into a 'i.• contract with any private organization providing marketing services, operating special events or a 1:111: festivals, or any other tourist promotion activity. The contract should spell out the tourism-related E'�q services to be provided in exchange for city funding and what reports will be required. Also, any k,' is organization doing promotion on behalf of the city may only spend hotel-motel tax funds on items ti that the city itself could fund. This prohibits, for example, any expenditures on promotional ril ii hosting. iI' The limitation on using hotel-motel tax revenues for acquiring and/or operating tourism-related j facilities is guided by the following definition, as amended in 2007: "Tourism-related facility means: real or tangible personal property with a usable life of ;j three or more years, or constructed with volunteer labor that is: (a)(1) Owned by a public Via} entity; (ii) owned by a nonprofit organization described under section 501(c)(3) of the f federal internal revenue code of 1986, as amended; or (iii) owned by a nonprofit : organization described under section 501(c)(6) of the federal internal revenue code of 1586, as amended, a business organization, destination marketing organization, main•: g � 9 9 street organization,lodging association,or chamber of commerce and (b) used to support `r tourism, performing arts, or to accommodate tourist activities.' iii Prior to the 2007 legislation, hotel-motel tax funds could be used, as interpreted by the attorney E general's office, only for facilities in which the city had an ownership interest 139 Now they can also be used to fund facilities owned by certain nonprofit organizations, as stated above.

The relevant statute regarding the purposes for which lodging tax revenues may be spent is RCW 67.28.1815,which states as follows: All revenue from taxes imposed under this chapter shall be credited to a special fund in the treasury of the municipality imposing such tax and used solely for the purpose of paying all or any part of the cost of tourism promotion, acquisition of tourism-related facilities,or operation of tourism-related facilities. 1�r�RCW 67.28.080(7). 212IAGO 2006 No. 4. 3j3jRCW 67.28.080(9). 1 ti l SV-FS2�Users lmcalhounlBudgets120121Lodging Tax1MRSC Q and A re Lodging Tax uses.docx "Acquisition" is defined in RCW 67.28.080(1)to include "construction," and a "tourism- related facility" is defined in RCW 67,28,080 7 to mean: [R]eal or tangible personal property with a usable life of three or more years, or constructed with volunteer labor, and used to support tourism,performing arts, or to accommodate tourist activities. It is our opinion that a public restroom in an area used by tourists accommodates tourist activities, for obvious reasons. The lodging tax statutes prior to 1997 contained a specific provision(the former RCW 67.28.210) for use of these tax revenues by cities with a population under 5,000 for public restroom facilities for the use of visitors. The major overhaul of the lodging tax statutes in 1997, which repealed this provision, actually acted to expand the authority of cities to use lodging tax revenues for this use by employing the statutory language discussed above. In summary,revenues from the city's lodging tax may be used, in our opinion, for construction of the public restroom in question. Nevertheless, we would recommend seeking the concurrence of the state auditor's office in advance of use of these fields for the purpose in question. 4. May local jurisdictions allow lodging tax recipients to use funding for personnel costs?Reviewed: 07/11 Yes, the definitions of"tourism promotion"and"tourism-related facility" in RCW 67.28.1 80 were amended in 2007 to allow local jurisdictions to use lodging tax revenues for the operation of tourism promotion agencies and of special events and festivals designed to attract tourists. Rather strict reporting requirements have been put in place, however. See RCW 67.28.1816. 5. Can a city or county spend hotel-motel tax funds to pay for police and public works overtime in conjunction with a festival?Reviewed: 08/11 Yes,the new 2007 amendments to chapEer 67_213 RCM allow hotel-motel (lodging)tax revenues to be spent on operating festivals. These expenditures for police and public works overtime would fall in that category. There are new reporting requirements, however. 6. Can a city use lodging tax funds for way-finding signs throughout the city? Reviewed: 08/11 We think that lodging taxes could be used for directional signs that help people find their way to tourist activities/facilities(e.g., museum)in the city. Such signs would fall within the definition of"tourism-related facility" in RCW 67,28.080(7), because they would constitute "tangible personal property with a usable life of three or more years" that is "used to support tourism . . . or to accommodate tourist activities." So, the expenditure would have to be specific to that type of directional signage. 2 1 .511-FS2\UserslmcalhounlBudgets\20121Lodging TaxiMRSC 0 ondA to Lodging Tax uses.docx 7. If our lodging tax advisory committee recommends an award to a group, can they put stipulations on the award such as: "the money can only be used for out-of- county advertising"?Reviewed: 07/10 The committee probably can do something like this but we are somewhat troubled by the word "stipulation" in this context. The task of a lodging tax advisory committee is set out in RCW 67.28.1817. Their task is to "review and comment." The statute provides that the comments are to include an analysis of the extent to which the proposal will accommodate activities for tourists or increase tourism, and the extent to which the proposal will affect the long-term stability of the long-term stability of the fund created under RCW 67,28.1815, Beyond those directions, the state law does not specify what sorts of comments are allowed. In our opinion, a lodging tax advisory could make a recommendation that a proposal to a group be awarded but with a limitation that the expenditures be "for out of county advertising." However,the recommendation of the lodging tax advisory committee is only advisory in nature. It does not govern the final decision as to which organization will receive funding and it does not control how those organizations spend the funds. Those decisions are for the board of county commissioners to make. The county commissioners may decide not to fund that organization at all, they may decide to fund the organization but not limit the expenditures in the manner provided for in the recommendation of the lodging tax advisory committee, or they may accept the recommendation of the lodging tax advisory committee and place this type of restriction in the contract with the private group. So the word "stipulation" seems a little misleading—it is really a recommendation that may or may not be followed by the county board of commissioners. 8. May the city use lodging tax funds to assist a group in organizing and managing a festival that will promote tourism in the city?Reviewed: 08/11 Yes, because this would fit into the definition of tourist promotion in RCW 67.28.080(6]. That definition was amended to include funding the marketing or the operation of special events and festivals designed to attract tourists. The services that would be paid for here would be included in the term"operation"of a festival and so should qualify for lodging tax funds. This definition sunsets on June 30, 2013. 9. Is the elected official cbair of the county lodging tax advisory committee a voting member? Reviewed: 08/1I It's our opinion that the chair of the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC), who in this case is a county councilmember, may vote on LTAC grants and on anything else. In other words, the county councilmember/chair is a full voting member of the LTAC. The relevant statute regarding the LTAC, RCV4' 67.2 8.18.17, provides in part that "One member shall be an elected official of the municipality who shall serve as chair of the committee." That language does not limit the voting authority of the elected official/chair.Note that the next sentence of this statute provides that"An advisory 3 I\SV-FS2l Userslrncalhoun\Budgets\2012ILodging Tox1MRSC Q and A re Lodging Tax uses.docx committee for a county may include one nonvoting member who is an elected official of a city or town in the county."(Emphasis added.) So, if the legislature intended the elected official/chair to be a nonvoting member, it would have said so as it did for the optional city/town elected official member. 10. Is there a requirement to spend all hotel-motel (Iodging) taxes collected each year, or may a jurisdiction identify a qualifying capital project and retain funds for a year or two or more to "save up" for that project? Reviewed: 08/11 There is nothing in the statutes that says you must spend all your hotel-motel tax money each year. And, there is also nothing that says you need to identify a capital project you are "saving up" for.You can just keep adding to the fiend balance as long as you want to. Now, from a practical standpoint, the hospitality industry probably wants you to spend every penny this year and on advertising! And the state auditor's office (SAO)sometimes gets nervous if your fund balance gets too big. Most jurisdictions that keep a positive fund balance do identify a capital project because they truly are "saving up" for something and, in addition, it may be helpful to do so to satisfy any concerns of the hospitality industry and SAO. 4
