AGENDA ITEM TITLE: 2011 Comprehensive Plan Amendments— Public Hearing
PREVIOUS ACTION TAKEN: None
BACKGROUND:
The Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan includes an annual amendment cycle that runs from November 2nd to
November 15t of the following year. Applications received prior to November 15t are considered by the
Planning Commission in late winter/early spring of the following year, with a decision by City Council in late
spring/early summer.
The Planning Commission will review the following Comprehensive Plan Amendments (CPAs) and make a
recommendation to City Council by the end of March. City Council may choose to adopt the individual
amendments as recommended by the Planning Commission, disapprove the amendments, or modify and
adopt the proposal. If the Council chooses to modify a proposal, they must either conduct a public hearing or
refer the proposal back to the Planning Commission for further consideration.
All parts of the Comprehensive Plan can be amended during the annual cycle. The Community Development
Department received two requests for site-specific Comprehensive Plan amendments for 2011. Sites
approved for a Comprehensive Plan amendment will automatically receive a zoning designation consistent
with the new land use designation.
The 2011 Comprehensive Plan text amendments include amendments to five Comprehensive Plan Elements:
Chapter 2 - Land Use, Chapter 3—Transportation, Chapter 4—Capital Facilities and Public Services, Chapter 7—
Economic Development, and Chapter 8— Natural Environment. The amendments may also entail minor changes
to other elements referencing the proposed amendments.
NOTICE:
Notice for the proposed amendments was placed in the Spokane Valley News Herald on February 4, 2011 and
each site was posted with a "Notice of Public Hearing" sign, with a description of the proposal. Individual
notice of the proposals was mailed to all property owners within 400 feet of each amendment.
SEPA REVIEW
Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA— RCW 43.21C) environmental checklists were required
for each proposed comprehensive plan amendments. Under SEPA, amendments to the comprehensive plan
1of2
are considered "non-project actions" defined as actions involving decisions on policies, plans, or programs that
contain standards controlling use or modification of the environment. Additional environmental review may
be required for the physical development of the subject properties.

comprehensive plan amendment. Determinations of Non-significance (DNS) were issued for the proposed
amendments on February 4, 2011 consistent with the City of Spokane Valley Environmental Ordinance.

IIL FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS SPECIFIC TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
AMENDMENT
A. COMPLIANCE WITH TITLE 17 (GENERAL PROVISIONS) OF THE SPOKANE VALLEY MUNICIPAL
CODE
Findings:
Section 17.80.140 H. (Com�rehensive Plan Amendment A�roval Criteria) S�okane Vallev Munici�al
Code
1. The City may approve Comprehensive Plan amendments and area-wide zone map amendments if it
finds that(analysis is italicized):
a. The proposed amendment bears a substantial relationship to the public health, safety, welfare,
and protection of the environment;
Staff Comment: The City's adopted policies of the Comprehensive Plan state in part "the
economic development strategy is to promote a more diverse economy [thatJ would achieve a
better balance between jobs, housing and support the City's desired quality of life" (Section
2.3.1). The site-specific amendment offers additional opportunities to achieve the balance by
expanding the land use available for further diverse development.
b. The proposed amendment is consistent with the requirements of Chapter 36.70A RCW and
with the portion of the City's adopted plan not affected by the amendment;
Staff Comment: The proposed location is served by all necessary urban services and provides
for appropriate in-fill development within the City of Spokane T�alley. The City has adopted
development regulations that are designed to address specific impacts related to new
development such as off-street parking, landscaping, lighting, setbacks, and height. The
proposed amendment is consistent with the Growth Management Act. Adjacent land use
designations are consistent with the proposed amendment.
The current amendment does not include two (2)parcels (45231.0114 and 45321.021 S)
located to the east and south of the proposal. Staff finds the two (2)parcels should be included
in the site-specific amendment to prevent islands of Mixed Use Avenue (MUA) surrounded by
Neighborhood Center (NCT). The applicant, Dwight Hume, has contacted each property
owner by mail requesting consent to include their parcel into the amendment. As of the date of
this report, staff has spoken with the property owner of parcel 45231.0114 Matt Jankowski
(KFC restaurant), however no direction was given to staff.
c. The proposed amendment responds to a substantial change in conditions beyond the property
owner's control applicable to the area within which the subject property lies;

e. The proposed amendment addresses an identified deficiency in the Comprehensive Plan.
Staff Comment: The site-specific amendment does not address an identified deficiency in the
Comprehensive Plan.
2. The City must also consider the following factors prior to approving Comprehensive Plan
amendments:
a. The effect upon the physical environment;
Staff Comment: Pursuant to Title 21 (Environmental Controls) of the City of Spokane T�alley
Uniform Development Code, the lead agency has determined that this amendment does not
have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment. The comprehensive plan
amendment is a non project action under SEPA. At the time of the submittal of the building
permit application, an additional SEPA review may be required to evaluate the impacts of the
use(s) and proposed structure(s) on the physical environment.
b. The effect on open space, streams, rivers, and lakes;
Staff Comment: The SEPA checklist states that there is no surface water body on or in the
immediate vicinity ofsite.
c. The compatibiliry with and impact on adjacent land uses and surrounding neighborhoods;
Staff Comment: The site-specific amendment is contiguous to a Neighborhood Commercial
Comprehensive Plan designation. The uses currently in operation on the subject parcels are
convenient and within close proximity to serve the surrounding neighborhood. At the time of
future development, standards in Title 22 (Design and Development Standards), specifically
22.70 (Fencing, Screening, and Landscaping) will reduce impacts on adjacent low density
residential designated properties.
d. The adequacy of and impact on communiry facilities including utilities, roads,public
transportation,parks, recreation, and schools;
Staff Comment: The City of Spokane T�alley addresses adequacy of community facilities on a
citywide basis through capital facilities planning. Policy CFP-9.1 of the Comprehensive Plan
recommends a concurrency management system for transportation, sewer, and water facilities.
The City of Spokane T�alley's Parks and Recreation Plan outlines an implementation strategy
including a capital facilities plan, which identifies costs and revenue sources for new parks. At
the time of development, the proposed amendment may have an impact on transportation. All
subject parcels are developed, however at the time of the future development staff will evaluate
the impacts of the use(s) and proposed structure(s) on the physical environment in regards to
transportation.
e. The benefit to the neighborhood, City, and region;
Staff Comment: The amendment is consistent with the existing character of the neighborhood.
The parcels proposed to change are in a neighborhood that has existing commercial/industrial
uses on three (3)sides and single family residences to the south.

£ The quantiry and location of land planned for the proposed land use type and density and the
demand for such land;
Staff Comment: The site-specific amendment is approximately 4.57 acres in size and has a
variety of commercial uses and six (6)single family residences. The proposal is consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan and will have minimal impact on other aspects of the plan.
g. The current and projected population density in the area; and
Staff Comment: The site-specific amendment will not increase the population density. The
proposed comprehensive plan amendment does not demand population analysis.
h. The effect upon other aspects of the Comprehensive Plan.
Staff Comment: The site-specific amendment as proposed to be modified by staff will be
consistent with the comprehensive plan and will have minimal impact on other aspects of the
plan. The applicant, Dwight Hume, has contacted each property owner by mail requesting
consent to include their parcel into the amendment. As of the date of this report, staff has
spoken w ith the property owner of parcel 45231.0114 Matt.Iankowski (KF'C restaurant),

Section 19.60.040 (Neighborhood Commercial District) S�okane Vallev Munici�al Code
The Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment is from Mixed Use Avenue (MUA) to Neighborhood Center
(NCT) comprehensive plan and zoning designation.
The Neighborhood Commercial designation is intended to provide a limited number of commercial goods
and services to surrounding residential neighborhoods.
Conclusion(s):
The proposed site-specific amendment is contiguous to Neighborhood Commercial properties and will
provide a wider variety of commercial uses. At the time of development, standards in Title 22 (Design and
Development Standards), specifically 22.70 (Fencing, Screening, and Landscaping)will reduce impacts on
adjacent low density residential designated properties by providing visual separation and physical buffers
between land uses. Any future development would be consistent with the intention of the Neighborhood
Commercial designation.
C. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
The Comprehensive plan states that the Neighborhood Commercial designation provides areas for small-
scale neighborhoods serving retail and office uses located in clustered development.
1. LUG-4 of the Comprehensive Plan recommends providing neighborhood and communiry scale retail
centers for the City's neighborhoods.
Staff Comment: The Neighborhood Commercial designation is consistent with the surrounding
neighborhood. There is public transportation route along Sprague Avenue adjacent to the proposed
amendment.
StaffReport and Recommendation to the Planning Commission for CPA-01-11
Page 5 of 7
2. LUP-4.4 of the Comprehensive Plan encourages the integration of retail developments into surrounding
residential areas.
Staff Comment: The Neighborhood Commercial designation will allow the introduction of a variety of
commercial uses that would service the surrounding residential neighborhood.

III. FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS SPECIFIC TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
AMENDMENT
A. COMPLIANCE WITH TITLE 17 (GENERAL PROVISIONS) OF THE SPOKANE VALLEY MUNICIPAL
CODE
Findings:
Section 17.80.140 H. (Com�rehensive Plan Amendment A�roval Criteria) S�okane Vallev Munici�al
C ode
1. The City may approve Comprehensive Plan amendments and area-wide zone map amendments if it
finds that(analysis is italicized):
a. The proposed amendment bears a substantial relationship to the public health, safety, welfare,
and protection of the environment;
Staff Comment: The City's adopted policies of the Comprehensive Plan state in part "the
economic development strategy is to promote a more diverse economy [thatJ would achieve a
better balance between jobs, housing and support the City's desired quality of life" (Section
2.3.1). The site-specific amendment offers additional opportunities to achieve the balance by
expanding the land use available for further diverse development. The application states the
intent is to provide senior citizen housing.
b. The proposed amendment is consistent with the requirements of Chapter 36.70A RCW and
with the portion of the Ciry's adopted plan not affected by the amendment;
Staff Comment: The state-wide planning goals and policies provide the basis for the City's
Comprehensive Plan and guidance in the development of goals and policies.
State-Wide Planning Goals:
Goal 1: Urban Growth. Encourage development in urban areas where adequate public
facilities and services exist or can be provided in an efficient manner.
Goal 4:Housing. Encourage the availability of affordable housing to all economic
segments of the population of this state,promote a variety of residential densities and
housing types, and encourage preservation of existing housing stock.
Approval of the requested site-specific amendment would meet both state-wide planning goals
cited above. The proposed location is served by all necessary urban services and provides for
appropriate in-fill development with the City of Spokane T�alley. The City has adopted
development regulations that are designed to address specific impacts related to new
development such as off-street parking, landscaping, lighting, setbacks and height. The site-
specific amendment is consistent with the Growth ManagementAct. Adjacent land use
designations are consistent with the amendment.
StaffReport and Recommendation to the Planning Commission for CPA-02-11
Page 3 of 7
c. The proposed amendment responds to a substantial change in conditions beyond the property
owner's control applicable to the area within which the subject property lies;
Staff Comment: The site-specific amendment is not responding to a change in conditions.
d. The proposed amendment corrects an obvious mapping error; or
Staff Comment: The site-specific amendment does not correct a mapping error.
e. The proposed amendment addresses an identified deficiency in the Comprehensive Plan.
Staff Comment: The site-specific amendment does not address an identified deficiency in the
Comprehensive Plan.
2. The Ciry must also consider the following factors prior to approving Comprehensive Plan
amendments:
a. The effect upon the physical environment;
Staff Comment: Pursuant to Title 21 (Environmental Controls) of the City of Spokane T�alley
Uniform Development Code, the lead agency has determined that this proposal does not have
a probable significant adverse impact on the environment. The site-specific amendment is a
non project action under SEPA. At the time of the submittal of the building permit application,
an additional SEPA review would likely be required to evaluate the impacts of the use(s) and
proposed structure(s) on the physical environment.
b. The effect on open space, streams, rivers, and lakes;
Staff Comment: The SEPA checklist states that there is no surface water body on or in the
immediate vicinity ofsite.
c. The compatibility with and impact on adjacent land uses and surrounding neighborhoods;
Staff Comment: The site-specific amendment is contiguous to a Medium Density Residential
Comprehensive Plan designation on the south. At the time of development, standards in Title
22 (Design and Development Standards), specifically 22.70 (Fencing, Screening, and
Landscaping) will reduce impacts on adjacent low density residential designated properties by
providing visual separation and physical buffers between land uses.
d. The adequacy of and impact on communiry facilities including utilities, roads,public
transportation,parks, recreation, and schools;
Staff Comment: The City of Spokane T�alley addresses adequacy of community facilities on a
citywide basis through capital facilities planning. Policy CFP-9.1 of the Comprehensive Plan
recommends a concurrency management system for transportation, sewer, and water facilities.
The City of Spokane T�alley's Parks and Recreation Plan outlines an implementation strategy

subject parcel by a boundary line adjustment for a total of 2.7 acres. Senior housing is
proposed with approximately forty (40) dwelling units. The amendment is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan and will have minimal impact on other aspects of the plan.

B. COMPLIANCE WITH TITLE 19 (ZONING REGULATIONS) OF THE SPOKANE VALLEY MUNICIPAL
CODE
Findings:
Section 19.60.040 (Nei�hborhood Commercial District) Spokane Vallev Municipal Code
The Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment is from Low Density Residential to High Density Residential
and corresponding zoning map amendment from Single-family Residential District (R-3) to Multifamily
Medium Density Residential District(MF-1).
The Medium Densiry Residential designation is intended to provide a range of housing types to
accommodate anticipated residential growth with densities not to exceed twelve (12) units per acre.
Multifamily residential zones should be used as transitional zoning between higher intensity land uses, such
as commercial and office, to lower density single-family neighborhoods. High density residential areas
should be located near services and high capacity transit facilities or transit routes.
Conclusion(s):
The 1.91 acres allows the opportunity for flexible development in housing types with a minimum size 3,600
square feet per dwelling unit. At the time of development, standards in Title 22 (Design and Development
Standards), specifically 22.70 (Fencing, Screening, and Landscaping) will reduce impacts on adjacent low
density residential designated properties by providing visual separation and physical buffers between land
uses.
C. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
The Comprehensive plan states that Medium Density Residential designation represents an opportuniry to
provide a range of housing types to accommodate anticipated residential growth.
StaffReport and Recommendation to the Planning Commission for CPA-02-11

Staff Comment: The Medium Density Residential designation allows fZexibility and a wide range of
housing options. At the time of development, standards in Title 22 (Design and Development
Standards), specifically 22.70 (Fencing, Screening, and Landscaping) will reduce impacts on adjacent

between land uses.
2. LUP-1.3 of the Comprehensive Plan encourages review and revisions as necessary for existing land use
regulations to provide for innovation and flexibility in the design of new residential developments,
accessory dwelling units and in-fill development.
Staff Comment: The Medium Density Residential designation will allow fZexibility in development with
the option of different housing types from single family residential, clustered housing, duplexes,
townhouses and/or apartments.
3. HG-3 of the Comprehensive Plan encourages meeting the housing needs of special populations including
the elderly, mentally ill, victims of domestic abuse,persons with debilitative conditions or injuries, and
the homeless.
Staff Comment: The Medium Density Residential designation will allow fZexibility in development. The
intent of this comprehensive plan amendment is to merge a portion of parcel 45174.2103 with the
subject parcel by a boundary line adjustment for a total of 2.7 acres. Senior housing is proposed with
approximately forty (40) dwelling units.

Briefl�plain Reason for Mab Amendment -
Parce145174.2102 is currently zoned R-3,with a Comprehensive Plan designation of
Low Density Residential. This parcel serves as a parking lot for St. John Vianney
Catholic Church.
Parce145174.2103, also owned by St. John Vianney Catholic Church, is the parcel
immediately adjacent and to the south of the above-listed Parce145174.2102. This parcel
is zoned MF-1,with a Comprehensive Plan designation of Medium Density Residential.
St. John Vianney Catholic Church has a goal to create approximately forty (40)housing
units for senior citizens on the two parcels listed above. Consistent with Chapter S—
Housin�of the City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan, Goal HG-3 states
"Encourage meeting the housing needs of special populations including the elderly..."
Policy HP-3.5 states "Encourage the location of new facilities for the special populations
identified above within one-quarter mile of transit corridors. "
Sprague Avenue, exactly one-quarter mile south of the proposed site, is a major
public transit corridor. �
�
The subject parcel (seeking to be changed from an R-3 Low Density Residential �
designation to a MF-1 Medium Density Residential designation) is necessary as an MF-1
in order to achieve the Parish goal of providing a safe, affordable inventory of housing '
for senior citizens. By means of a Boundary Line Adjustment between the two parcels, a �
single parcel of approximately 2.7 acres in an MF-1 zone, Medium Density Residential, j
can achieve 32 housing units. Through providing housing to low-income seniors,bonus I
residential densities can be achieved. In addition,through providing site amenities that
benefit the public, in accordance with SVMC 19.35.040,plus the bonus density of low-
income housing, a final unit total of fifty-one (51) units could be achieved on the site.
The future project contemplates forty (40)units.
i
i
i
�
I
�I
i
�;
Narrative to describe the followin�: i
1. Reason for the Com�rehensive Plan Map Amendment:
St. John Vianney Catholic Parish wishes to develop land that is adjacent to the church
and elementary school on their campus into a project to provide housing for senior
citizens. The church owns the parcel on which they are requesting a Comprehensive Plan
Map Amendment, as well as the adjacent parcels to the north, south and west. To the east
is a public street: Walnut Road.
In order to assemble the land parcels so they are adequate for the future housing project, a
Boundary Line Adjustment is necessary between Parcels#45174.2102 and#45174.2103.
Currently Parcel#45174.2102 is designated R-3, LDR. In order to achieve the multi-unit
senior citizen housing project,the Comprehensive Plan designation need to be changed to �
MF-1,MDR.
2. Describe how the pro�osed chan�e meets the ap�roval criteria below:
a. The proposed amendment bears a substantial relationship to the public health,
safety, welfare and protection of the environment.
If the subject site is zoned to a higher density, in accordance with the Washington ;
State Growth Management Act(GMA) (RCW 36.70A.020 (2) ) '�
multi-family development will be enabled to occur in close proximity to already i
established centers and corridors with services and public transit.
b. The proposed amendment is consistent with the requirements ofRCW.36.70A and
with the portion of the City's adopted plan not affected by the amendment.
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan, Chapter 5-Housing 5.1 Plannin�
Context. 5.1.1 Washington State Growth Mana�ement Act states the following:
The Washington State Growth Management Act provides the following guidance
applicable to housing and neighborhoods:
I
Encourage development in urban areas where adequate public facilities i
and services exist or can be provide in an efficient manner.
Reduce inappropriate conversion of undeveloped land into sprawling,
low-density development. I�
� Encourage the availability of affordable housing to all economic
segments of the population of this state, and promote a variety of
residential densities.
�
The subject site,Parcel#45174,2102, if enabled to become MF-1, MDR, will '�
fulfill the above-stated goals. Higher density housing for low-income senior 'i
�
i
; I
�
citizens will be developed in close proximity public facilities and services along
Sprague Avenue.
c. The proposed amendment responds to a substantial change in conditions beyond
the property owner's control applicable to the area within which the subject
property lies.
Not applicable
d. The proposed amendment corrects an obvious mapping error '
Not applicable '
e. The proposed amendment addresses an identified deficiency in the Comprehensive
Plan.
Not applicable
3. Describe how the proposal addresses the following specific factors:
a. The effect upon the physical environment.
Higher density housing in close proximity to already-established centers and
corridors (in this case Sprague Avenue)preserves undeveloped land and reduces i
inappropriate conversion of undeveloped land into sprawling, low-density
development.
b. The effect on open space, str�eams, rivers and lakes.
Not applicable
c. The compatability with and impact on adjacent land uses and surrounding
neighborhoods. ;
In accordance with the Cit�ofSpokane Vallev Comprehensive Plan: Chapter S— ;
Housin�, S.1 Plannin�Context, "GMA further requires that a housing element
ensuring the vitality and character of established residential neighborhoods that
includes: Identification of sufficient land area for the number of needed housing
units, including government assisted housing, housing for low income and special
needs housing."
If the subject site becomes MF-1, MDR,via the Comprehensive Plan Amendment �
process,the above-stated goal will have been achieved. The new zoning will �
allow for in-fill in a nearly urban setting of inedium-density housing for low-
income senior citizens.
d. The adequacy of and impact on community facilities including utilities, roads, (
public tr�ansportation,parks, recreation and schools.
At the time of application for a Building Permit, a concurrency study will be I
undertaken. Undetermined as of yet,however,public services along Sprague �
Avenue, less than a quarter mile to the south of the subject site, are plentiful.
�
I
;
e. The benefit to the neighborhood, city and region. �
Senior citizens provide an enduring, stabilizing fabric to a neighborhood. This
neighborhood has the benefit of a K-8 school along with a church as cornerstones
to the subject site. Through the Comp Plan Amendment and zoning change that
will enable construction of housing for the elderly, enhancement to the
neighborhood, city and region will be realized. (
f. The quantity and location of land planned for the proposed land use type and �I
density, and the demand for such land.
Following a BLA for the two parcels slated to become the site for the future senior
citizen housing development, a single parcel of approximately 2.7 acres will exist.
Per SVMC 19.40.070, a zoning designation of MF-1 allows twelve (12)units per
acre. When a Residential Bonus Density is utilized,per SVMC 19.35.040,with
specific steps and public amenities incorporated into the future project, approx. '
fifty-one (51) housing units are allowed.
The project being contemplated by St. John Vianney Catholic Parish is planning
forty (40) senior housing units.
f. Discuss the current and projected population density in the area. I'
From information taken from the demographics report found at ,
www.selects�okane.com (Spokane Regional Site Selector and Property Locator), ;
the current (2010)population indicates a total of 9,599 persons living within a
one-mile radius of the subj ect parcel. The proj ected population within a one-mile �,
radius of the subject site in the year 2015 is for a projected total of 9,556 persons.
g. Discuss the effect upon other aspects of the Comprehensive Plan �
It is anticipated that the Comprehensive Plan Amendment being sought(to change
the zoning and land use designation of Parcel#45174.2102 from R-3 LDR to MF-1
MDR) will not have an effect on other parts of the Plan.

L BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The Subarea Plan was developed in response to the community's desire to reverse the visual and economic
decline of the Sprague and Appleway Corridor, restore the area as a viable commercial area within the
communiry, and plan for the development of the City Center for the Ciry of Spokane Valley. The plan
provides the implementing regulations to achieve the desired change along the corridor, and also identifies
corresponding public and private investments necessary for the plan goals to be accomplished. A major
component of the city actions included plans to reconfigure portions of Sprague Avenue to a two-lane, two-
way street with wide sidewalks, and extend Appleway Boulevard, also as a two-way street. The
reconfiguration of streets was intended to reverse the negative impacts to business resulting from the one way
street configuration, as well as make the area pedestrian friendly. The Plan was based on the broad policies
established in the Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan for a new City Center and mixed-use/commercial
development along the corridor.
Planning for the Subarea plan began in 2006 with community focus group meetings and followed by public
meetings. After several years of effort the plan was formally adopted by Ordinance 09-013. Subsequent to
plan adoption, Council directed staff to review the plan on a zone by zone basis with affected property
owners, business operators and interested citizens. As a result of the zone district review, changes were
considered to the plan as code text amendments, with other changes to be docketed as a comprehensive plan
amendment during the annual amendment process. Subsequent to the complete review of the Subarea Plan,
the Council determined that the Plan no longer conformed with the policy direction of the Council and
directed staff to begin the process to remove the Plan in its entirety. Prior to the beginning of the annual
amendment process the City Center portion of the plan was eliminated by an Emergency Comprehensive Plan
Amendment, Ordinance 11-001.

fulfilled by the submittal of the required SEPA Checklist, and the issuance of the City's threshold
determination consisting of a Determination of Non-Significance (DNS).
III. FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS SPECIFIC TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
AMENDMENT
A. COMPLIANCE WITH TITLE 17 (GENERAL PROVISIONS) OF THE SPOKANE VALLEY MUNICIPAL
CODE
Findings:
Section 17.80.140 H. (Comprehensive Plan Amendment A�roval Criterial Spokane Vallev Municipal
C ode
1. The following are responses to the proposed comprehensive plan amendment;
a. The proposed amendment bears a substantial relationship to the public health, safety, welfare,
and protection of the environment.
The City proposes an amendment due to the deterioration of the economy and opposition to the
implementation of the plan. The public has conveyed to the Council, with written comment and
verbal testimony their belief that the S'ubarea plan creates an additional layer of regulation
that in their opinion results in unwarranted project design and development costs not desired
by the community. The costs create a financial burden to property and business owners, which
in combination with the current economic conditions, has stifZed, rather than stimulated,
development within the subarea.
The proposed amendment reduces the amount of regulations, creates a more fZexible
environment for developers, and eliminates the restrictive corridor identity established in the
Subarea plan. However, if the plan is eliminated the conditions along the corridor may remain
unchanged, with the expectation that vacancies and property disinvestment could continue. If
the cycle continues properties will become increasingly more disadvantaged.
This proposal has no potential impact on the safety of the community. It can be concluded that
the vocal consensus of the community does not support the subarea plan goals and policies,
and therefore eliminating the plan will support the health and welfare of the community by
returning the area to its previous Comprehensive Plan Land Use designations and zoning.
However, it also can be concluded that eliminating the plan does not address the declining
conditions that are recognized along the corridor, and the continuation of the decline is
contrary to the health and welfare of the community.
b. The proposed amendment is consistent with the requirements of Chapter 36.70A RCW and
with the portion of the Ciry's adopted plan not affected by the amendment;
StaffReport and Recommendation to the Planning Commission for CPA-03-11
Page 4 of 10
RCW 36.70A, The Growth Management Act, (GMA) requires cities and counties to adopt
comprehensive plans and development regulations that are consistent with thirteen statewide
planning goals. RCW 36.70A.080 authorizes jurisdictions to adopt optional elements and
subarea plans. A subarea plan is not a required element, but one that is allowed so long as it
is consistent with the goals and policies of the adopted comprehensive plan. The GMA
planning goals require citizen participation and coordination to be a part of the plan
development and allows for amendments to occur on an annual basis. The proposed
amendment would eliminate the subarea plan, and amend the comprehensive plan in part,
while retaining the goals and policies that directed the development of the subarea plan within
the comprehensive plan. The proposed amendment to eliminate the plan is based on public
dissatisfaction with the plan. Public comment has indicated that the development of the plan
was based on a fraction of input from the community and does not represent the community's
interests. The public comment received does not dispute the general direction of the goals and
policies found within the Comprehensive Plan, but contends the Subarea plan developed is not
what the community envisioned. Alternatively, other members of the community contend that
the plan should not be abandoned recognizing that change is anticipated over a long period of
time and that it is premature to determine that the plan will not provide the expected results.
Regardless of the opposing opinions, the conclusion can be drawn that the elimination of the
subarea plan will not cause the comprehensive plan to be inconsistent with the GMA, and it
will not cause the development regulations to be inconsistent with the goals and policies of the
plan. Retaining the goals and policies within the plan regarding the development of a city
center and revitalization of the Sprague Corridor will allow the community to develop a plan
and corresponding regulations in line with current community preference.
c. The proposed amendment responds to a substantial change in conditions beyond the property
owner's control applicable to the area within which the subject property lies.
Over 1,100 properties are located within the Sprague and Appleway Corridor Plan area. The
amendment does not respond to any change in conditions to individual properties but is in
response to the consensus of vocal citizens and property owners who contend that the plan
does not refZect the needs and/or desires of the community, that the design standards within the
form based code are not practical to apply to existing development, and that additional
regulations have become a deterrent to developers considering the corridor. However, two
specific conditions have changed since the adoption of the plan.
First, the council has eliminated the city center portion of the plan as an emergency
comprehensive plan amendment.
Second, the City has not resolved the issues that would enable the City to acquire the
Appleway right-of-way making it possible to extend Appleway in the future, as well as
impeding the ability of those affected property owners to meet the requirements for frontage
improvements concurrent with development. Two conclusions may be drawn from the latter
statement: The first is that those properties may be unfairly burdened until the right of way is
improved; and the second conclusion is that the principals of the plan are working by insuring
that Appleway does not continue to develop as the "Back door of Sprague. "
StaffReport and Recommendation to the Planning Commission for CPA-03-11
Page 5 of 10
It can be concluded that a shift in the economic climate, community support, and obstacles to
obtaining the Appleway right-of-way have lead to a substantial change in conditions.
d. The proposed amendment corrects an obvious mapping error; or
The proposed amendment does not correct a mapping error.
e. The proposed amendment addresses an identified deficiency in the Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed amendment does not address a deficiency in the Comprehensive Plan.
2. The City must also consider the following factors prior to approving Comprehensive Plan
amendments:
a. The effect upon the physical environment;
The comprehensive plan amendment is a non project action under SEPA and has no
identifiable impact on the environment. Development regulations in conjunction with
environmental review ensure that all project related adverse impacts are mitigated at the time
of development.
b. The effect on open space, streams, rivers, and lakes;
There is no surface water body on or in the immediate vicinity of subarea. Balfour Park is the
only designated open space within the proposed amendment area. There are no impacts
anticipated.
c. The compatibiliry with and impact on adjacent land uses and surrounding neighborhoods;
The proposed amendment is to return the land use designations and zoning to those in place
prior to the implementation date of the Subarea Plan on Oct. 1 S, 2009. The designations and
zoning were established consistent with the goals and policies of the comprehensive plan
adopted on April 25, 2006. Development regulations address impacts anticipated due to
incompatible uses and SEPA provides the tool to address impacts not anticipated by
regulations. Since the amendment proposes to restore land use designations and associated
zoning to that which was previously in place, the status quo will be maintained, and no impacts
are anticipated.
d. The adequacy of and impact on communiry facilities including utilities, roads,public
transportation,parks, recreation, and schools;
The City of Spokane T�alley addresses the adequacy of community facilities on a citywide basis
through capital facilities planning. Policy CFP-9.1 of the Comprehensive Plan recommends a
concurrency management system for tr�ansportation, sewer, and water facilities. At the time of
the submittal of the building permit application, an additional SEPA review would likely be
required to evaluate the impacts of the use(s) and proposed structure(s) on the physical
environment in regards to transportation and schools.
However the community has noted that the Sprague Avenue and Appleway Boulevard
configured as a one-way str�eet have negatively impacted business, and that too few north-
south connections exist to conveniently provide access to business on either street. The limited
connections and fast travel speeds of the thru-traffic create unfriendly and dangerous
conditions for pedestrians. Book II.• Development Regulations, and Book III.• City Actions
address these conditions, but to this date no measures have been implemented or projects
StaffReport and Recommendation to the Planning Commission for CPA-03-11
Page 6 of 10
initiated that would bring about change. As a result of eliminating the plan, the conditions
noted may remain unchanged.
Traffic Studies completed for the EIS by Glatting.Iackson and Associates prior to the plan
adoption have shown that reconfiguring Sprague Avenue and Appleway Boulevard would have
marginal impact on the level of service. Eliminating the plan does not create, nor address
known impacts, but allows for conditions to continue.
e. The benefit to the neighborhood, City, and region;
The proposal would restore many uses within the subarea neighborhoods to that of a
conforming status and restore commercial entitlements to properties that were rezoned.
However, studies prepared by Eco-northwest indicated that the city has a surplus inventory of
vacant and available commercial and office properties. Shopping trends indicated a consumer
preference for anchor based shopping centers located at major crossroads which led to the
underutilization of the commercial zoned properties. The Subarea plan zoning established a
pattern of centers, boulevard and avenue segments in keeping with contemporary consumer
and investor preference. The shift of entitlements within the plan attempted to reposition the
corridor properties to capture value in the contemporary market place. Eliminating the plan
will restore commercial entitlements contributing to the surplus of commercial properties.
A benefit to the city may be realized by deciding the fate of the Subarea Plan in a final fashion
as the continued controversy creates an uncertain climate for developers.
£ The quantiry and location of land planned for the proposed land use type and density and the
demand for such land;
The S'ubarea plan contains approximately 1,000 acres of underutilized land. The proposal
would return all acreage to the October I5, 2009 land use designations and zoning. The EIS
prepared for the Subarea Plan noted that in general, there is not a significant difference
between the "terms of envisioned growth"for the corridor and the land uses established within
the Spokane T�alley Comprehensive Plan. Under either scenario, SARP, or pre-SARP Sprague
Avenue will take many years to transform from strip retail to a mixed-use avenue. However
the combination of form based zoning and the reconfiguration of Sprague and Appleway was
intended to provide a foundation for redevelopment. A few differences are noted from the
report:
First, the mixed use vision for the Sprague corridor is similar under both alternatives (pre
SARP and SARP) in that it allows a mix of uses. The subarea plan regulations require
compatible building types, with regulations that control the building form,placement and
architectural design of buildings. The current zoning regulations (in this case zoning prior to
October 1 S, 2009) are use-based considering primarily use and bulk standards, such as
minimum setbacks, height limits and maximum coverage requirements.
Second, the subarea plan concentrated like uses into centers and segments. The elimination of
the plan will allow commercial development essentially up and down the corridor increasing
the amount of land available for generalized commercial uses. The elimination of the
Community Boulevard District will return the zoning such that generally commercial uses are
StaffReport and Recommendation to the Planning Commission for CPA-03-11
Page 7 of 10
allowed on the north side ofAppleway Boulevard and residential uses allowed on the south
side.
Last, regulating the design of buildings was intended to encourage a mixed use environment.
Residential development along Sprague is less likely to occur when the zoning code is use-
based, and not form- based.
g. The current and projected population density in the area; and
According to the EIS prepared for the Subarea Plan, impacts to population, housing and employment
were not anticipated to be more significant than the impacts evaluated during th�e adoption of the
Spokane T�alley Comprehensive Plan.(SVCP) Both the Subarea plan and the SVCP encourage
residential growth along the corridor, however the subarea promotes higher density apartments and
townhouses. The subarea plan analysis predicted an increase in employment,particularly in the City
Center area. Since the City Center designation has been removed, and more commercial entitlements
would be restored up and down the corridor, the strip commercial land use pattern is expected to
continue. If the pattern of vacancies continues, a decrease in employment will be expected.
h. The effect upon other aspects of the Comprehensive Plan.
The proposal would eliminate the mapped area and zoning associated with the Subarea plan.
The pre-SARP land use designations were consistent with the goals and policies within the
SVCP at the time of adoption, and remain consistent. The mixed use vision for Sprague
Avenue is similar under the Subarea plan, and the previous land use designations. However,
mixed use development may be less likely to occur under the use based zoning.
B. COMPLIANCE WITH TITLE 19 (ZONING REGULATIONS) OF THE SPOKANE VALLEY MUNICIPAL
CODE
Findings:
Section 19.110.020 (S�ra�ue A�lewav Corridors Subarea Plan) S�okane Vallev Munici�al Code
The Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment includes the proposal to eliminate zoning associated with the
Sprague and Appleway Corridors Subarea Plan and replace the zoning for affected properties with the
zoning that was in effect on October 15, 2009. All references to the Subarea Plan and its authority are
proposed to be removed from the Spokane Valley Municipal Code. The following sections of the SVMC are
proposed to be amended: Title 19 Zoning Regulations, section 19.110.020 and 19.140.010; Title 5 Business
Licenses and Regulations, Chapter 5.10 Adult Entertainment Establishments; and Appendix D, Spokane
Valley Sprague and Appleway Corridors Subarea Plan.
Conclusion(s):
Rezoning the properties within the subarea to be consistent with the proposed land use designation would
not result in any inconsistencies with Title 19 of the Spokane Valley Municipal Code. Any non-conforming
uses that existed prior to the adoption of the Subarea Plan, would likely be nonconforming at the time the
proposed zoning became effective.
C. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Section I of Ordinance # 09-013, which amends the Comprehensive Plan Map and adopts the Land Use
Designations set forth in the Sprague and Appleway Subarea Plan, identifies in great detai141 supporting
StaffReport and Recommendation to the Planning Commission for CPA-03-11
Page 8 of 10
Comprehensive Plan Goals and Policies. The Subarea plan is supported by the Comprehensive Plan goals
and policies. However, based on public input and council direction the subarea plan is not representative of
the community's vision, nor the Council's policy direction.
Section 3 of Ordinance#07-015 which adopts Title 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 as portion of city of Spokane
Valley Uniform Development Code identifies in detail that the Development Regulations are consistent with
numerous Goals and Policies from Chapter 1 Introduction, Chapter 2, Land Use, Chapter 3 —
Transportation, Chapter 5 —Housing, Chapter 6,- Private and Public Utilities, Chapter 7- Economic
Development, Chapter 8 - Natural Environment, Chapter 9—Parks, Recreation and the Arts and Chapter
10 Neighborhoods of the Comprehensive Plan. Therefore it can be concluded that the proposed zoning
regulations are consistent with the comprehensive Plan Goals and Policies.
Goal EDG -7 of the Comprehensive Plan states, " Maintain a regulatory environment that offers flexibility,
consistency,predictability and clear direction." The continuation of the sub area plan creates an
unpredictable environment for developers as staff struggles to implement the regulations contained within
the plan consistent with the policy direction of the council.
D. FINDING AND CONCLUSIONS SPECIFIC TO PUBLIC COMMENTS
Findings:
Staff has received no written public comment concerning the proposal as a result of the comprehensive plan
amendment noticing requirements to date. However, at the direction of Council, staff conducted a review of
the plan by hosting 5 public meetings between May 2010 and September 2010. Both written and verbal
comments were received during the process. As a result of the comments, council addressed issues through
the code text amendment process, and then added the remaining issues to the annual comprehensive plan
docket for further consideration.
Conclusion(s):
Adequate public noticing was conducted for CPA-03-11 in accordance with adopted public noticing
procedures.
E. FINDING AND CONCLUSIONS SPECIFIC TO AGENCY COMMENTS
Findings:
Staff has not received any agency comments to date.
Conclusion(s):
No concerns are noted.
IV. OVERALL CONCLUSION
Considerable analysis was completed during the adoption of the Subarea Plan. The Plan was determined to
adequately establish the planning and design framework to restore the vitaliry, functionality, and beauty of the
Sprague and Appleway Corridor consistent with the free-market and community's vision. While the plan was
built on public participation and governmental support, it appears that the vision within the plan may no
longer be supported by the community and current council. The Plan is consistent with the goals and policies
of the Comprehensive Plan. However, the plan is intended to be a living document and as such should
respond to the visions and preference of the community and its leaders. RCW 36.70A.130 of the Growth
StaffReport and Recommendation to the Planning Commission for CPA-03-11
Page 9 of 10
Management Act identifies the review process and schedule for annual updates acknowledging that revisions
are necessary to address changing conditions within communities. This process has been followed.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
No recommendation is provided. The Planning Commission should consider the information within the
staff report and discuss the merits of eliminating the plan as it relates to the public health and welfare of the
community. The Commission should forward their recommendation, along with findings of fact to the
Council for their consideration.

Page 2 of 5
City departments, and elected officials to propose updates to address changing conditions so the plan
will reflect ongoing work or new information. The proposed text amendments add or modify policy
direction in specific policy areas and update information in the plan. The 2011 proposed text
amendments will ensure that internal plans such as the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP),
special purpose district's and other service provider's plans are consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan. The public health, safety, welfare, and protection of the environment are furthered by ensuring
the Comprehensive Plan is reflective of regional policy and current with other plans.
2. The proposed amendment is consistent with the requirements of Chapter 36.70A RCW and with the
portion of the City's adopted plan not affected by the amendment;
Staff Response: The proposed amendments to the Comprehensive Plan are not in conflict with
Chapter 36.70A RCW (Growth Management Act) and do not result in internal inconsistencies within
the plan itself.
3. The proposed amendment responds to a substantial change in conditions beyond the property
owner's control applicable to the area within which the subject property lies;
Staff Response: The proposed text amendments are not site or property specific. This approval
criterion does not apply.

quality of water runoff. Furthermore, development of a wellhead protection program with the
various water providers should provide guidelines to avoid possible contamination.
Policies contained in the Natural Environment chapter provide direction for development near
wellheads and in aquifer recharge areas. For a complete discussion of water resources and water
purveyors in the City of Spokane Valley, refer to the Capital Facilities chapter.
2.3.3 Parks and Open Space
One of the most important and valued elements of a high quality living and working environment is
a parks and open space system. Providing parks and open spaces contributes to a reduction in
environmental impacts such as noise and air pollution; increases the value of adjacent properties;
provides areas for passive and active recreation; and helps preserve the natural beauty of the City.
2.3.4 Natural Environment
Spokane Valley's natural beauty is apparent. Streams, wetlands, surrounding mountains and the
Spokane River provide a scenic backdrop as well as a source for active and passive recreation for
the citizens of Spokane Valley. The Land Use chapter seeks to protect Spokane Valley's unique
natural resources through policies that support the preservation of these areas for future
generations. The Natural Environment chapter also includes a discussion of critical areas as
defined by GMA. For a complete discussion, please refer to the Natural Environment chapter.
2.3.5 Housing
Housing is a basic human need and a major factor in the quality of life for individuals and families.
An adequate supply of affordable, attractive, and functional housing is fundamental to achieving a
sense of community. The central issue related to land use is supplying enough land to
accommodate projected growth for a range of incomes and households. Presently, housing is
provided primarily in single-family subdivisions.
This plan sets forth strategies to increase housing options and choices. The Land Use chapter
advocates changes to current development codes to increase flexibility in platting land and
encourage housing as part of mixed-use developments in commercial areas. The latter provides an
opportunity to locate housing closer to employment and shopping, and to create affordable housing.
A complete discussion of housing can be found in the Housing chapter.
2.4 Potential Annexation Areas
2.4.1 Projected Growth
In October 2003, the City of Spokane Valley received a 2000 population certification from the U.S.
Census Bureau that indicated 80,927 people called Spokane Valley home on April 1, 2000. As of
April 1, 2003 the population had grown to 82,005 (based on the Washington State Office of
Financial Management (OFM) population estimates). Upon incorporation on March 31, 2003, the
City of Spokane Valley became the state's ninth largest city and second largest in Spokane County.

'^�POn June 9, 2009, the BoCC approved via Resolution �-84��09-0531 a population
allocation of��18,746 for Spokane Valley for planning purposes.
2.4.2 Land Capacity Analysis
The GMA does not require a Population and Land Capacity Element to be included in the
comprehensive plan. However, GMA does require that Land Use, Housing and Capital Facilities
Elements include population densities, building intensities and estimates of future population
growth. The GMA also requires a Land Capacity Analysis, or the theoretical holding capacity of the
designated Urban Growth Areas, which by definition includes cities. By assigning the expected
population growth to the results of the Land Capacity Analysis, the area required to accommodate
the population growth is shaped.
Countywide population forecasts are identified by the CWPPs, as one criterion for consideration in
developing a regional methodology or countywide population allocation. The countywide growth
target is based on the OFM growth management population forecast for Spokane County.
The Land Quantity Analysis Methodology for Spokane County was developed through the efforts of
the Land Quantity Technical Committee between March 1995 and October 1995. The Growth
Management Steering Committee of Elected Officials adopted that methodology on November 3,
1995.
The adopted methodology is patterned after the Washington State Department of Community,
Trade and Economic DevelopmenYs (CTED) land quantity inventory guidebook entitled Issues in
Designating Urban Growth Areas Part I- Providing Adequate Urban Area Land Supply. Use of that
document was specified by the adopted Countywide Planning Policies (Policy Topic 1 (Urban
Growth Areas Policy#3). However, the step-by-step CTED process was modified somewhat by the
Land Quantity Technical Committee to reflect unique circumstances in Spokane County. The
following steps of the regional methodology were followed by Spokane Valley in conducting the
land capacity analysis:
Adopted April 25, 2006 (Updated 04-27-2010) Chapter 2— Land Use

City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
1. Identify lands that are potential candidates to accommodate future growth - vacant,
partially-used and under-utilized land (in other words, subtract all parcels committed to
other uses).
2. Subtract all parcels that the community defines as not developable because of physical
limitation.
3. Subtract lands that will be needed for other public purposes.
4. Subtract all parcels that the community determines are not suitable for development for
social and economic reasons.
5. Subtract that percentage of land that the community assumes will not be available for
development within the community plan's 20-year time frame.
6. Build in a safety factor.
7. Determine total capacity.
Spokane Valley prepared a land capacity analysis of the city and surrounding UGAs based on the
above regional methodology. The results of the land capacity analysis are contained in the table

Spokane Valley recommended to the Steering Committee that both the City of Spokane Valley and
the City of Liberty Lake receive an interim population allocation that could be accommodated within
the existing city limits of each city. The rationale for this recommendation was based on the
situation regarding sanitary sewer throughout the entire Spokane region.
It is estimated that the Spokane County treatment plant will run out of capacity in 2009, and the
Liberty Lake Water & Sewer District treatment capability is currently at or near capacity. Permits to
expand the Spokane County and Liberty Lake plants from the Washington State Department of
Ecology and the Environmental Protection Agency are currently in doubt. Given the potential
constraint for both jurisdictions to provide this vital urban service, the Steering Committee
forwarded a recommendation to the Spokane County Board of County Commissioners to allocate
only the population that could be accommodated within existing city limits until such time as the
sanitary sewer issues are resolved.

City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
2.4.3 Potential Annexation Areas
The purpose of this section is to identify the unincorporated areas within the existing Spokane
County UGA that are adjacent to the City of Spokane Valley, which would comprise potential
annexation areas for the City. Map 2.2 indicates potential annexation areas (PAAs) for the City of
Spokane Valley.
Spokane County adopted its first comprehensive plan developed under GMA in 2001. A complete
examination of urban services was required at the time the County established the UGA, moreover,
Spokane County was obligated to comply with the State Environmental Policy Act. The County's
plan included the designation of a regional UGA, which included the still unincorporated area of
Spokane Valley. The County utilized the SEPA/GMA integration process to fulfill the environmental
review requirements of the plan including the designated UGA.
When Liberty Lake incorporated in 2001 and Spokane Valley incorporated in 2003 much of the
"Valley UGA" was included as part of the newly created cities, but not all. In 2003 and again in
2006, Liberty Lake completed annexations totaling 975.69 acres of the County designated UGA.
These annexations resulted in a nearly 34 percent increase (from 4.5 square miles to just over 6
square miles) in land area for Liberty Lake.
ISeveral ^f +o��UGAs are a�-�j�contiguous to Spokane Valley Tss��+h �,,,,+ho��+ �n,� n„�+ho��+�
and would be logical areas for future annexation to the City of Spokane Valley. Spokane County
and the metro cities of Spokane Valley, Spokane, Liberty Lake and Airway Heights have begun the
process of updating the regional UGA consistent with the county wide planning policies (CWPPs).
Through this process, the City of Spokane Valley will identify areas needed to accommodate
allocated population growth by re-evaluating land quantity analysis and urban service delivery.
2.4.4 Development of Goals, Policies, and Actions for Annexation
The Growth Management Act (GMA) requires counties to designate Urban Growth Area (UGAs)
within which urban growth shall be encouraged RCW 36.70A.110 (1). UGAs are to include
sufficient land to accommodate the twenty-year population growth projected for the county. The
GMA imposes planning requirements to influence the ability of a city to annex UGAs. A city is
required by GMA to adopt policies for land use, housing, capital facilities, utilities, and
transportation within the city's UGA. In order to meet this requirement the City of Spokane Valley
has developed policies and goals to provide policy guidance for annexation of territory within UGAs.
Annexation will have financial impacts on the city; it may be positive or negative. The City may
need to develop an annexation study to
assess the financial impacts especially for
larger annexations. The Capital Facilities
chapter identifies current service
providers within the Potential Annexation
Areas (PAAs) as a starting point for the
detailed analysis that may be needed � ,
prior to annexation. � .`,� � , .

City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
4.4.2 Growth Assumption
On June 9, 2009, the Spokane County Board of Commissioners (BoCC) approved a population
allocation of 18,746 people for the City of Spokane Valley. The allocation is the amount of people
the City can accommodate within its current municipal boundary. In addition, the BoCC approved a
population allocation of 8,138 people for the unincorporated Urban Growth Areas (UGAs) adjacent
to the City of Spokane Valley. The City of Spokane Valley has identified the adjacent UGAs as
Potential Annexation Areas (PAAs). The City has identified existing service providers to help
determine the effects on existing levels of service in the event of annexation. Capital facilities
planning activities within these UGAs continue to be the County's responsibility.
The following population data is used for capital facilities planning purposes:

4.4.3 Level of Service
Cities are often defined by the quality of facilities and services that are provided to its residents.
Good road, sewer and water infrastructure are typical criteria used by businesses considering
relocation. Park and recreation facilities are increasingly used to judge the quality of a City.
Businesses want to locate where they can attract the best employees, and quality of life issues are
often the deciding factor for a person to move to a new area.
Level of service standards are quantifiable measures, such as acres of parks per 1000 people, or
the amount of time it takes to travel a road segment during peak morning and afternoon "rush
hours," the higher the level of service the higher the cost. This element establishes levels of
service which will be used to evaluate the adequacy and future cost of urban facilities and services.
4.4.3 Concurrency
The Growth Management Act introduces the concept of concurrency, which requires new
development to be served with adequate urban services at the time of development, or within a
specified time thereafter. The GMA allows six years for necessary transportation improvements to
be constructed as long as a financial commitment is made at the time of development. The GMA
strongly encourages concurrency for water and sewer, and it is good public policy to require the
same.
4.4.4 Financing Facilities and Services
The City is limited in its ability to finance all desired capital facility projects. Options must be
available for addressing funding shortfalls or decisions must be made to lower levels of service for
public facilities. In deciding how to address a particular shortfall, the City will need to balance
current needs versus future growth requirements; existing deficiencies versus future expansions.
Capital facilities plans must be balanced. When funding shortfalls occur, the following options
should be considered:
a. Increase revenues,
b. decrease level of service standards,

The City of Spokane Valley does not own or operate a public water supply system. Rather, water is
provided to Spokane Valley residences and businesses by special purpose districts, associations,
and public and private corporations. Water service is coordinated by Spokane County through the
Coordinated Water System Plan (CWSP), which identifies service boundaries, establishes
minimum design standards and promotes the consolidation of regional water resource
management. The CWSP is updated as needed at the direction of the Board of County
Commissioners or the Washington State Department of Health (DOH).

Insurance Rating
� Si#��Fire departments °^�' f;ro ^r^+o„+;�n ,�;�+r;,.+� are assigned a numerical fire protection rating by
the Washington Surveying and Ratings Bureau. Insurance companies fund the Bureau to perform
on-site inspections of fire districts to determine the rating. The Bureau analyzes five main areas:
average response time, water supply, communication network, schedule of fire inspections and fire
station evaluations (which focus on age of vehicles), personnel training and staffing of facilities.
Insurance companies use the fire protection rating to help determine insurance rates on all fire
insurance policies. The rating is on a scale of one to ten, with one representing the best score.
Quality of fire service can have a significant impact on fire insurance rates, particularly for
commercial businesses. ,°s—of���8n� c^^'-°^° �a'��8��°�e��SVFD has a Fire
Insurance Rating of#e�+�three 3 and District No. 8 has a Rating of five�, both indicating �es�

Librarv Facilitv Master Plan = � �� � E,��,aY
��
In March 2008 voters defeated a proposal to establish
a proposed Greater Spokane Vallev Librarv Capital Facilitv area to issue General Obliqation Bonds
for construction of a new main librarv and a new neiqhborhood branch in the eastern area of the
Citv. The District subsequentiv undertook a capital facilities planninq process for its entire service
area, resultinq in the Julv 2010 Board of Trustees approval of a 20-vear Librarv Facilities Master
Plan (LFMP). Usinq 2031 population estimates based on Spokane Countv GMA population
allocations, the LFMP addresses current and future facilitv needs in each of its five qeoqraphic
service areas: the Greater Spokane Vallev, North Countv, Southeast Countv, Southwest Countv,
and Moran/Glenrose Prairie.
LFMP development included communitv research (customer and communitv telephone survevs,
focus qroups, and communitv leader interviews); population qrowth estimatinq bv aeoqraphic area;
evaluations of existinq facilities and sites; and a public input process. The plan proposes
replacement of three existinq libraries with new facilities, the addition of three new branches, and
remodelinq/expansion of five others at a total cost of$50.8 million (2010 dollars).

Forecast of Future Needs
. The LFMP uses a 2031 Spokane Vallev population estimate of 108,000 for
its future proiections, consistent with the Citv of Spokane Vallev's GMA population allocation for
qrowth within the existinq Citv limits. The District recoqnizes that new librarv facilities need to be
built inside Spokane Vallev to provide adequate library services to its residents. Future facilities will
be divided between a main branch and two future neiqhborhood branches.
Locations and Capacities of Future Facilities
+� +hroo .,,;�o� �f�+ho .,,�,., hr�.,�h A new main branch to replace the existinq Spokane Vallev
Librarv should contain about 50,000 square feet of space and should be located on an arterial
street within about one-half mile of the Spraque corridor between Dartmouth and Everqreen Roads.
To better serve the Veradale and Greenacres areas, a new neiqhborhood branch of approximatelv
12,000 square feet should be built on District-owned propertv on Conklin Road, immediatelv south
of Spraque Avenue. A second new branch to serve the South Valley should be built between
Dishman-Mica and Everqreen Roads on or immediatelv south of 32� Avenue.
Capital Projects and Financing Plan
The future main branch is estimated to cost $a-a-415.56 million in �88�2010 dollars; the
neighborhood branch would cost about $�5_1 million each.
h„n,�� � o +ho n �� f,.,�n,.;.,,. .r,o+hr,.J fr,r rhr�r„ n o,.+� r,f+hio � Besides construction costs
and fees, the estimates include library materials, furnishinqs, and equipment. Voter-approved
qeneral obliqation bonds are the normal financinq method for library proiects of this size.
The DistricYs Librarv Facilities Master Plan proposes a three phase capital improvement schedule
that includes all Spokane Valley proiects in the first two phases. The earliest feasible date for a
District-wide bond election to carry out the proposed proiects is earlv 2013, which for purposes of
the schedule is Year 1.
Phase 1: Years 1 to 4
• Complete propertv purchases (Year 1)
• Desiqn, construct, and open replacement Spokane Vallev branch (Years 1-4)
Phase 2: Years 3 to 8
• Desiqn, construct, and open new Conklin Road branch (Years 3-5)
• Sell existinq Spokane Vallev branch (Year 5)
• Desiqn, construct, and open new South Vallev branch (Years 6-8)

This section of the Capital Facilities Plan (CFP) provides summaries of the parks inventory, level of
service (LOS), future park needs, proposed projects, and a financing plan for the next six years.
Park Types
Parks are classified by their size, service area and function. Spokane Valley uses the nationally
recognized Park, Recreation, Open Space and Greenway Guidelines, to establish standard for
parks planning. Major classifications include mini-park, neighborhood, school-park, community,
large urban, various trail designations and special use facilities. The Parks Element, Chapter 9,
provides a thorough description of park types used for planning purposes.
Inventory of Existing Facilities
The Parks Map, found at the end of this Chapter, shows the location of all parks within Spokane
Valley. Table 4.13 provides an inventory of park and recreation facilities owned by Spokane Valley.
These parks are used to calculate Spokane Valley's level of service for parks. The Parks Master
Plan provides the most detailed inventory of parks, including equipment, structures and other
miscellaneous park facilities.

4.4.11 Public Safety
The Spokane Valley Police Department is a contract law enforcement agency, partnering with the
Spokane County Sheriff's Department to provide a safe environment for the citizens, businesses,
and visitors of the City of Spokane Valley. This unique contracting relationship allows for the
sharing of many of our resources, allowing both agencies to operate at peak efficiency without
duplicating services.
Adopted April 25, 2006 (Updated 04-27-2010) Chapter 4 -Capital Facilities

Spokane Valley also contracts with Spokane County for judicial, jail and animal control services.
I The total contract for public safety for �88�2011 totaled over $� 15.3 million, including
approximately 100 commissioned police officers.
Spokane Valley supports community oriented policing and recognizes it as an important
complement to traditional law enforcement. In Spokane County, community policing is known as
S.C.O.P.E., or Sheriff Community Oriented Policing Effort. The community policing model balances
reactive responses to calls for service with proactive problem-solving centered on the causes of
crime and disorder. Community policing requires police and citizens to join together as partners in
the course of both identifying and effectively addressing these issues. About 364 Spokane Valley
citizens are S.C.O.P.E volunteers.
Community Survey
The Community Preference Survey included questions to gauge the public's perception of police
services. Results show that 85% of Spokane Valley residents believe police services are good,
very good, or excellent, indicating a generally high level of confidence in the police force. Only 27%
of respondents expressed a willingness to pay additional taxes to have improved police services.
Inventory of Existing Facilities
The Spokane Valley Police Precinct is located at 12710 E. Sprague and houses patrol and
detective divisions, the traffic unit and administrative staff. The Precinct also includes a-�e�e�t�
�+„r�,.o f�,.,r+„ �.,,� a Spokane County District Court.

City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
In 1988, the intergovernmental agency known as the Spokane Regional Solid Waste System
(System) was formed by interlocal agreement between the City of Spokane, Spokane County and
all other cities and towns within the County. The System is responsible for implementing solid
waste management plans, planning and developing specific waste management programs and
updating solid waste plans for the entire County. The System is managed by the City of Spokane,
which uses its structure to carry out the various solid waste management programs for our region.
In Spokane Valley, solid waste services are provided by private haulers licensed by the Washington
Utility and Transportation Commission (W.U.T.C.) through franchise agreements. Waste
Management of Spokane provides residential and commercial garbage services and weekly
curbside recycling collection; Sunshine Disposal provides only commercial services. At this time,
Spokane Valley residents are allowed to self-haul their garbage to an appropriate dumping site.
Inventory of Existing Facilities
The Regional Solid Waste System includes a Waste to Energy facility located at 2900 South
Geiger, and two recycling/transfer stations. One of the stations is located within Spokane Valley at
3941 N. Sullivan Road south of Trent and across from the Spokane Industrial Park; the other is
located in north Spokane County at the intersection of Elk-Chattaroy Road and Highway 2.
Landfills are necessary to provide disposal for solid waste that cannot be recycled or incinerated, or
that exceeds the capacity of the WTE Facility. The Spokane County Regional Health District
licenses six privately owned landfills in Spokane County.
Level of Service
The minimum Regional Level of Service Standards requires solid waste services to meet all State
and Federal regulations.
Forecast of Future Needs
Spokane Valley is participating on the update of the Spokane County Waste Management Plan
(SCWMP). The SCWMP update process will determine future needs for solid waste disposal.
Locations and Capacities of Future Facilities
The updated Spokane County Solid Waste Management Plan will provide information on future
regional solid waste facilities.
Finance Plan
The updated Spokane County Solid Waste Management plan will include a financing plan for future
regional solid waste facilities.
4.4.15 Stormwater Facilities
Stormwater runoff in Spokane Valley flows to a combination of public and private facilities. In
I developed areas, runoff infiltrates into the around or flows �^�^�^ �+roo+ ,.,,++or� �n,� ;� ,�,�n„�o,�
�to drywells in public road rights-of-way, drywells on private property and grassy swales with
overflow drywells in easements on private property.
There are advantages and disadvantages to relying on on-site facilities for all stormwater
management. One advantage is that on-site facilities are typically constructed with private funds
and can be integrated into the development as a green space amenity. However, on-site facilities
are sometimes not well maintained. Their capacity may be diminished over time or they may fail
entirely during large runoff events. On-site facilities may take up large portions of a development
site, thereby reducing the effective density that can be accommodated in that area.
In 2004, the Spokane Valley City Council created a stormwater utility to develop and maintain storm
� drainage systems on Citv owned ��land. To create revenues for the stormwater utility
operations, the Council adopted an annual fee per Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU). Residential
ERUs are based on the number of single-family dwellings, while Commercial ERUs are based on
the square footage of impervious surface associated with a business or commercial development.
Adopted April 25, 2006 (Updated 04-27-2010) Chapter 4 -Capital Facilities
Page 47 of 71
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
Inventory of Existing Facilities
Spokane Valley's inventory of stormwater facilities, most of which are integral to the safe function of
� our street system, consists of about �-,�997,200 drywells, �1900 bio-infiltration swales, �61
detention ponds, and one retention pond. Other facilities include curb inlets, bridge drains, and
culverts, all of which require monitoring and maintenance. The retention pond, located at Dishman-
Mica Road. and 32�d Ave., was constructed as a part of a road project and provides a disposal point
I for water flowing from Chester Creek. The inventory does not reflect stormwater structures located
on private properties that do not serve the public street drainaqe svstem.
Level of Service
The Spokane County Board of Commissioners adopted new regional level of service standards for
stormwater in 2004 as a part of the Countywide Planning Policies update;-
`Floodin,�of propertv outside desi�nated draina�vs, def�cto draina�vs,
easements, flood zones or other a�roved draina�f�cilities, during the desi�
precipitation or runo�f event prescribed in the standards of the governin�
agencv or jurisdiction, shall be prevented within the reasonable probabilitv a�forded
bv such� standards. Impact to buildin�s and accessorv structures shall be avoided to
the maximum extent practicable bv evaluatin� the e,�fects of a100,vear rain event,
and implementing measures to ensure that the runo�f attendant to such event is
directed awav f�'om such buildin�s and accessory structures. Anv stormwater
discharge to surf�ce or ground waters must meet federal, state and local
rec�uirements for water c�ualitv treatment, stormwater runo�fand in�ltration."
The standards reflect current best practices that are established in adopted stormwater design
guidelines. Spokane Valley follows said guidelines in reviewing and approving new development
and is therefore in compliance with the regional LOS standards for stormwater runoff.
Forecast of Future Needs

categories, which include federal, state and city funds. Some sources consist of reliable annual
funds while others are periodic, such as grants. The use, availability and applicability of these
various sources are not always at the discretion of the City. Spokane Valley will develop a track
record with funding agencies as time goes on, which will help make to make more reliable funding
assumptions.
A summary of expected federal, state and local funding sources for the City's six year Capital
Improvement Program is shown in Table 4.39. The following is a summary of transportation
funding options.

Potential Annexation Areas/Urban Services
The Growth Management Act requires that counties designate urban growth areas (UGAs). The City of
Spokane Valley identified lands adjacent to the City within existing UGAs that would likely be developed
for urban uses and potentially be annexed to the City. In order to assess the need for capital facilities, the
City has identified existing service providers within the Potential Annexation Areas (PAAs). This
assessment should help identify the effects a potential annexation area will have on existing levels of
service.

Memorandum
To: Mayor and City Councilors
From: John Carroll,Chair-Spokane Valley Planning Commission
Date: February 24,2011
Re: Planning Commission Findings and Recommendation: CPA-01-11 through CPA-08-11
BACKGROUND
The Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan includes an annual amendment cycle that runs from November 2nd to
November 15Y of the following year. Applications received prior to November 15t are considered by the Planning
Commission in late winter/early spring of the following year, with a decision by City Council in late spring/early summer.
The Planning Commission reviewed the Comprehensive Plan Amendments (CPAs) and has provided the following
findings and recommendations. City Council may choose to adopt the individual amendments as recommended by the
Planning Commission, disapprove the amendments, or modify and adopt the proposal. If the Council chooses to modify
a proposal, they must either conduct a public hearing or refer the proposal back to the Planning Commission for further
consideration.
All parts of the Comprehensive Plan can be amended during the annual cycle. The Community Development
Department received two requests for site-specific Comprehensive Plan amendments for 2011. Sites approved for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment will automatically receive a zoning designation consistent with the new land use
designation.
The 2011 Comprehensive Plan text amendments include amendments to five Comprehensive Plan Elements: Chapter 2-
Land Use, Chapter 3—Transportation, Chapter 4—Capital Facilities and Public Services, Chapter 7—Economic
Development, and Chapter 8—Natural Environment. The amendments may also entail minor changes to other elements
referencing the proposed amendments.
The Planning Commission's findings and recommendation on CPA-01-11 through CPA-08-11 are summarized below:
FINDINGS
1. Notice for the proposed amendments was placed in the Spokane Valley News Herald on February 4, 2011 and each
site was posted with a "Notice of Public Hearing" sign,with a description of the proposal.
2. Individual notice of the site-specific map amendment proposals were mailed to all property owners within 400 feet
of each affected site.
3. Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA—RCW 43.21C) environmental checklists were required for
each proposed comprehensive plan map and text amendment.
1of3
4. Staff reviewed the environmental checklists and a threshold determination was made for each comprehensive plan
amendment. Optional Determinations of Non-significance (DNS)were issued for the requested comprehensive plan
amendments on February 4, 2011.
5. The DNS's were published in the city's official newspaper on February 4, 2011 consistent with Spokane Valley
Municipal Code,Title 21, Environmental Controls.
6. The Spokane Valley Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on February 24, 2011, to consider the
proposed amendments. After hearing public testimony, the commission made recommendations on CPA-01-11
through CPA-08-11.
