❑ information ❑ admin. report ❑ pending legislation
FILE NUMBER: CTA-02-12
AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Continued Deliberations —Amendment to the Spokane Valley Municipal
Code
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSAL: City initiated text amendment to the Spokane Valley Municipal
Code (SVMC), Chapter 19120 (Permitted and Accessory Uses) matrix affecting numerous uses in
commercial,mixed use, office, and industrial zones.
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: RCW 36.70A106, SVMC 17.80150 and 1930.040
PREVIOUS ACTION TAKEN: Planning Commission conducted a study session on June 28, 2012 and
a public hearing on July 12, 2012.
BACKGROUND: Staff presented CTA-02-12 to the Planning Commission at a study session on June 28,
2012. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the amendment on July 12, 2012. During
deliberations, the Planning Commission requested additional information relating to cremation facilities and
allowing office uses to locate in the MF-2 aone. Staff provides the following information for the
Commission's consideration.
Crematories
Spokane Regional Clean Air Agency(SRCAA) states that there are currently thirteen crematories (human
and animal) located throughout Spokane County, three of which are located in the City of Spokane
Valley. These facilities undergo rigorous permitting processes with SRCAA prior to operating. The
cremation units consist of two chambers, the second of which, called an "afterburner", eliminates any
residual odor or other emissions associated with cremations. It should be noted that the capacity of these
units is based on weight and when a unit is overloaded, noticeable emissions can occur. Due to the
potential impacts created by crematoriums, Staff recommends no change to the proposed amendments at
this time.
Office uses in the MF-2 zone
In response to testimony given during the public hearing, the Planning Commission requested additional
information relating to the location of o�ce uses in the High Density Multifamily Residential District(MF-
2). Section 22 of the Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan (see attached) discusses issues relating to
comingling office and multifamily zoning. The intent of the Comprehensive Plan was to identify areas
currently developed in predominantly office uses and to create development standards specific to the office
zoning classification. This exercise identified specific areas in the city such as Evergreen corridor north of
Sprague Avenue, Mission east of Pines (Valley HospitaUmedical area), and the intersection of Pines Road
and Broadway Avenue. These corridors offer continuity for business owners and provide access to major
arterials to support appropriate accommodations for traffic circulation. Residential uses are permitted in
1 of 2
Office zones if located above the first floor. In addition, the Garden O�ce district provides a buffer
between low density residential uses and higher intensiry commercial uses.
The description of High Density Residential in section 2.51 of the comprehensive plan makes no mention
of office or commercial uses in this zone. Chapter 19.40.080 outlines the intent of the MF-2 zone as a
"transitional zoning between higher intensity land uses, such as commercial and office, to medium and
lower density single-family neighborhoods." Based on this analysis, staff recommends no change be made
at this time. If a change of this nature is desired, several areas of the Comprehensive Plan would need to be
amended.
Entertainment/recreation facilitv,indoor.
Staff has reevaluated the proposed changes to the entertainment/recreation facility, indoor and has prepared
an alternative for the Commission's consideration. As an alternative to the Conditional Use Permit, staff
proposes that these facilities be allowed as permitted uses in the Heavy Industrial zones with special
conditions. Recommended conditions of approval would be that the proposed site take access directly from
an arterial and all required parking is contained on-site. Further, the proposed site must not be located
adj acent to potentially hazardous land uses, such as petroleum storage, foundries or other explosive storage.
NOTICE: Notice for the proposed amendment to SVMC was placed in the Spokane Valley News
Herald on June 22 and June 29, 2012. Notice for the proposed amendment was provided consistent with
applicable provisions of SVMC Title 17.
APPROVAL CRITERIA: SVMC Section 17.80.150(F)provides approval criteria for text amendments
to the SVMC. The criterion stipulates that the proposed amendment(s)must be consistent with the
applicable provisions of the Comprehensive Plan and bear a substantial relation to the public health,
safety,welfare, and protection of the environment.
OPTIONS: Planning Commission may recommend approval as presented; recommend approval with
modi�cations,recommend the proposal not be adopted, or forward no recommendation to City Council.

In early 2012 the Spokane Valley City Council requested that staff perform a review Chapter 19120
SVMC(Permitted &Accessory Uses)with a focus on the Corridor Mixed Use and Garden Office zones.
Specifically, evaluating existing uses listed in the chapter and proposing additional uses which may be
appropriate in these zones. As staff began the review process, a number of other updates were identi�ed;
either updates to zones other than CMU or GO, and general format updates to help make the matrix more
user friendly.
The following is a brief discussion regarding the proposed changes.
City Center: Remove the category of"City Center"as there is no longer any land within the City zoned
City Center.
Appliance sales/service: Proposed as an allowed use in the Community Commercial zone.
Auction House: Proposed as an allowed use in the Light Industrial zone due the availability of structures
large enough to accommodate this type of business.
Manufacturin�: Relocate all manufacturing categories from their current alphabetic location in the code
to a general"Manufacturing" section within the code for easier navigation. No changes are being
proposed to the locations where these uses can locate within the City.
Automobile/truck/RV/motorc,��aintin�, re�air,bodv and fender works: Proposed as an allowed use
with conditions in the Community Commercial zone. An appropriate use in this zone provided that it be
located within an enclosed structure.
Staff Report and Recommendation CTA-02-12
Barber/beaut, s�p. Proposed as an allowed use in the Garden Office zone as these businesses are
typically smaller in size and do not generate traffic or noise in amounts that would be disruptive to the
adjacent residential uses.
Bicycle sales/service: Proposed as an allowed use in the Garden Office zone as these businesses are
typically smaller in size and do not generate traffic or noise in amounts that would be disruptive to the
adjacent residential uses.
Boat sales/service: Proposed as an allowed use in the Corridor Mixed Use and Light Industrial zones
where other automobile sales are currently allowed.
BrewerY,micro: Proposed as an allowed use in the Neighborhood Commercial zone. A growing trend,
these small tap breweries typically serve the neighborhoods where they are located.
Buildin� Su�ly&Home Improvement: Proposed as an allowed use in the Corridor Mixed Use zone.
Candv& Confectionarv: Proposed as an allowed use in the Garden Office and Office zones as these
businesses are typically smaller in size and do not generate traffic or noise in amounts that would be
disruptive to the adjacent residential uses.
Cemetery and crematories: Proposing that these uses be separated and that crematories be contemplated
separately due to potential issues with crematories in residential zones. Proposing crematories as an
allowed use in the Community Commercial, Regional Commercial, Light Industrial and Heavy Industrial
zones.
Church,temple, mosque, s,���ue and parsona�e�. Proposed as an allowed use in the Garden Office
zone. Small congregations are regularly locating in spaces which were formally small retail or office
spaces. These uses are allowed in all other zones within the City with the exception of the industrial
zones.
Clothes,retail sales: Proposed as an allowed use in the Neighborhood Commercial zone. Smaller,
boutique type establishments appropriate to serve the surrounding neighborhood.
Dru� Store: A dated term,proposing to rename this item"Pharmacy", a more widely used term and
relocate it alphabetically within the code.
Dwellin�, townhouse: Proposing to remove this from the Neighborhood Commercial zone where
residential uses are not allowed. This change corrects an error in the code.
Entertainment/recreation facilities,indoor: Proposed as a permitted use in the Light Industrial zone and
with a Conditional Use Permit in the Heavy Industrial zone. These uses, which include indoor soccer
centers,batting cages, etc. are growing in popularity and typically locate in large,warehouse type
facilities commonly found in industrial areas.
Essential Public Facilities: Proposed as Regional Siting in the Corridor Mixed Use zone. This
amendment would make it possible for the County to consider parcels aoned CMU when contemplating
uses including,but not limited to,hospitals,regional transportation facilities,inpatient facilities, etc.
Exercise facilit��ym/athletic club: Proposed as an allowed use in the Office zone. Small scale fitness
facilities that locate in strip commercial or office space such as Curves, Anytime Fitness, or the like.
Page 2 of 5
Staff Report and Recommendation CTA-02-12
These smaller facilities do not generate tra�c or noise beyond what would typically be expected in the
Of�ce zone.
Hobb. S�p. Proposed as an allowed use in the Garden Office and Of�ce zones as these businesses are
typically smaller in size and do not generate traffic or noise in amounts that would be disruptive to the
adjacent residential uses.
Home furnishin�s,retail sales: Proposed as an allowed use in the Neighborhood Commercial zone. These
smaller,boutique style stores serve the neighborhoods where they are located.
Market, outdoor: Proposing to change this use from requiring a Temporary Use Permit to an outright
permitted use in the Mixed Use Center, Corridor Mixed Use, Community Commercial, Regional
Commercial,Parks and Open Space, and Light Industrial zones. Outdoor markets are growing in
popularity and often are functional for longer than the 6 months the Temporary Use Permit currently
allows.
Mobile food vendors: Allowed with conditions in the Neighborhood Commercial zone. These small
businesses,which serve the neighborhood where they are located,would need the permission of the
property owner and the Health Department.
Music store: Proposed as an accessory use in the Garden Office zone.
Of�ce & Computer sales: Proposed as an allowed use in the Neighborhood Commercial zone. Smaller,
neighborhood scale businesses as opposed to "big box" office retail(Office Depot).
Photo�ra�hic Studio: Proposed as an allowed use in the Garden Office and Office zones as these
businesses are typically smaller in size and do not generate traffic or noise in amounts that would be
disruptive to the adjacent residential uses.
Print Shop: Proposed as an allowed use in the Neighborhood Commercial zone. Small scale businesses
serving the neighborhoods where they are located.
Radio/TV broadcastin�studio: Proposed as an allowed use in the Light Industrial zone due to the large
equipment required for this type of business.
Recreational vehicle sales and service: Proposed as an allowed use in the Corridor Mixed Use zone
where other types of automobile sales are currently allowed.
Specialized trainin�/learnin� schools or studios: Proposed as an allowed use in the Garden Office zone,
these types of businesses which can include dance,martial arts,music, or other similar uses do not
generally produce traffic or noise which would be harmful to nearby neighborhoods.
Taxidermv: Proposed as an allowed use in the Corridor Mixed Use zone.

2.2 Land Use Plan
Spokane Valley's land use pattern(the physical location of uses) e�sts as a result of development
administered by Spokane County until incorporation of Spokane Valley on March 31, 2003 and to a far
lesser extent the subsequent development under Spokane Valley's jurisdiction. As shown in Figure 2.1
below,the maj ority of land is designated residential(57%)under this Plan. Of the land designated
residential, 50%is designated as Low Density Residential with densities up to six dwelling units per acre.
Nearly 20% of the land area is designated as Heavy and Light Industrial. The remaining land is
designated as commercial, office, or public/quasi public.
2.2.1 City Center Plan
This scenario presents concepts and strategies for creating a definable and vibrant "City Center" for the
City of Spokane Valley. The purposes of creating a Spokane Valley City Center are:
1. Create an identifiable city center that is a social and economic focus of the City;
2. Strengthen the City overall by providing for long-term growth in employment and housing;
3. Promote housing opportunities close to employment and services;
4. Develop land use patterns that support the development of a more extensive regional
transportation system,whatever the ultimate configuration may be;
5. Reduce dependency on automobiles;
6. Consume less land with urban development
7. Ma�mize the public investment in infrastructure and services;
8. Provide a central gathering place for the community; and
9. Improve the quality of design for development throughout the City.
There are several reasons why a definable,vital City Center is important to Spokane Valley's future.
These include:
1. The development of a more intensive, multi-use city center is a natural step in Spokane
Valley's evolution. Most new urban areas start out as bedroom communities. Retail and
commercial uses then develop to serve the new residential population. Office and industrial
activities next begin to locate at key transportation crossroads, adding jobs and
strengthening the employment base. Spokane Valley has experienced these evolutionary
phases and is now ready for a defined City Center.
2. Economic Development — Spokane Valley has an opportunity to transform itself from an
essentially residential community with retail and service based economy to a sub-regional
economic center with an expanded, more diverse employment base.
3. Community Support — A survey of Spokane Valley area citizens prior to incorporation
overwhelmingly indicated that the lack of identifiable "downtown" and a community
gathering place was of concern to a maj ority of respondents. Community support was
tested again when the city conducted a statistically valid survey in the spring of 2004. The
support to create a City Center was reiterated throughout the community meetings held
during the development of the comprehensive plan and the city's informal community
survey. A discussion of the results of the city's survey is included in Section 2.10.
The following could be components of the City Center:
1. Location: Generally located along the Sprague/Appleway corridor.
2. Size: Between 300 and 400 acres in size.
3. Streets: New streets could be added at every 200 to 400 feet to create an internal grid street
system to provide an urban atmosphere.
4. On-street parking would be provided on internal grid streets.
5. Ground floor retail on both sides of streets.
6. Building out to the edge of the right-of-way and include wide sidewalks to encourage a lively
street scene.
7. Office/Employment uses provided in high visibility locations with adequate parking and
adjacent to pleasant surroundings such as open space,retail shops and services.
8. Multi family housing that is safe, secure, and located so that it is buffered from traf�c noise
and provides a pedestrian friendly streetscape with connections to parks, schools, shopping,
services and transit.
9. Civic/public uses such as city hall, community library, performing arts center, city center
park, green space or other public uses that would attract people to downtown over an
extended portion of the day.
Other characteristics of this land use scenario include the following:
L Neighborhood/community retail centers - current land use patterns dictate that residents
travel to the Sprague Avenue corridor to access some of the most basic goods and services.
This scenario would provide for smaller scale, less intensive retaiUcommercial centers in
the south end and northeast portions of the city. Potential locations for these centers would
be focused at intersections of arterials at the periphery of the city, such as Highway
27/32nd Avenue, Dishman Mica Road/Bowdish Road and Barker Road/Boone Avenue.
2. Off'ice aoning districts —currently, there is no specific aoning district or comprehensive plan
designation for professional office uses. The county has used the UR-22, Multi-family
aoning district as its office district, which has resulted in a number of issues related to
reaones and appropriate development standards. Areas that are currently developed in
predominantly office uses would be re-designated to an "Office" comprehensive plan
designation and aoning districts developed to implement this plan designation would
include development standards to implement the policies of the comprehensive plan.
Specific areas in the city include the Evergreen corridor north of Sprague Avenue; Mission
east of Pines Road in the Valley HospitaUmedical office area; near the intersection of Pines
Road and Broadway; and other areas identified through the land use inventory process.
2.5.1 Residential
The demand for and development of single-family housing is expected to continue for the
foreseeable future. Single-family development will occur as in-fill development of vacant or under
developed lots scattered throughout e�sting neighborhoods, and as subdivisions on vacant tracts of
land. To address future housing needs, the Land Use chapter encourages new techniques for
developing single-family housing. Such techniques include clustering, planned unit developments,
lot size averaging, zero lot line development, accessory dwelling units and special needs housing.
Low Density Residential
The Low Density Residential (LDR) Comprehensive Plan designation addresses a range of single
family residential densities from one dwelling unit per acre up to and including six dwelling units
per acre. This designation would be implemented through a series of zoning designations as
described below.
Implementing zoning for the LDR designation will include a series of zones allowing a range of
minimum lot sizes. E�sting lot sizes and community character will be strongly considered when
developing the City's zoning map. For example, areas such as Rotchford Acres and Ponderosa will
likely require minimum lot sizes close to an acre in size. These large lot developments currently
allow for horses and other large animals and have a distinct character that should be preserved to
the greatest extent possible. The majority of the LDR designation will provide for densities ranging
from four to six dwelling units per acre. Typical lot sizes will range from 7,000 to 10,000 square
feet. Some areas designated as LDR still lack necessary urban services and infrastructure,mainly
sanitary sewer facilities.Upon provision of urban services, such as water and sewer, and transit
services, an increase in density in some areas may be warranted. However, the City will adopt strict
criteria to evaluate zone changes to ensure that future development is compatible with the
surrounding neighborhood.
Medium Density Residential
The Medium Density Residential designation represents an opportunity to provide a range of
housing types to accommodate anticipated residential growth. The increase in population, decline in
average family size, and increased cost of single-family homes have created increased demand for
new housing types. The Land Use chapter encourages the development of housing types, such as
duplexes, townhouses, and condominiums in existing multi-family areas and within mixed-use
development in commercial areas.City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan Adopted April 25,
2006 (Updated 04-26-2011) Chapter 2—Land Use Page 13 of 35
Multi-family uses, in large part, are in areas currently zoned for multiple-family development.
Zoning will allow densities up to 12 dwelLing units per acre in the Medium Density Residential
designation. Opportunities for new development will occur through redevelopment and build-out of
remaining parcels.
Multi-family residential zones should be used as transitional zoning between higher intensity land
uses such as commercial and office, to lower density single family neighborhoods. Additionally,
Medium Density Residential areas should be located near services and high capacity transit
facilities or transit routes.
Residential design guidelines that address design and appearance of multiple-family developments
should be considered. The primary goal of residential design guidelines is to develop multiple-
family housing that is reflective of the community's character and appearance.
High Density Residential
This designation provides for e�sting multi-family residential development developed at a density
in excess of 12 units per acre. Additionally, High Density Residential(HDR) designated areas are
also located in areas near higher intensity development, such as a City Center. HDR provides
housing opportunities for younger, lower income households in the City who may not yet be able to
afford a home of their own. Moreover, this designation provides housing options for people looking
to "downsize"from a single family dwelling on an individual lot, or for those known as "empty-
nesters"whose children have moved out of the household and a large single family home is no
longer needed. Generally, this designation is appropriate for land which is located adjacent to the
arterial street system served by public transit, and is in close proximity to business and commercial
centers.
19.70.020 I-2,Heavy Industrial district.

business/job placement. Below are the relevant policies fi^om the Comprehensive
Plan:
LUG-9: Encourage the development of Mi�ed-use areas that foster community
identity and are designed to support pedestrian, bicycle and regional transit.
LUP-9.2: The mi� of land uses allowed in either the Corridor Mi�ed-use or Mixed-
use Center designation should include:
• A full range of retail goods and services including grocery stores,
theaters/entertainment, restaurants,personal services and specialty shops;
• Public/quasi public uses
• Commercial uses that require large land uses but have low employment density
and are auto-dependent, such as lumber yards, plant nurseries, warehouses
and auto dealerships, should be prohibited fi^om either Mi�ed-use category.
EDG-1: Encourage diverse and mutually supportive business development and the
expansion and retention of existing businesses within the City for the purpose of
emphasizing economic vitality, stability and sustainability.

Staff Report and Recommendation CTA-01-12
C. OVERALL CONCLUSION
The proposed privately initiated municipal code text amendment is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plans policies and goals.
D. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Division, after review and consideration of the submitted application and applicable
approval criteria, recommends the proposal to allow animal shelters in the CMU zone subject to a
conditional use permit.
An animal shelter is a large scale facility providing food and shelter to stray, rescued and owner
surrendered dogs and cats. For comparison, the local animal shelter SCRAPS provides shelter to
dogs and cats, pet adoptions, licensing, animal protection, educational programs, free dog training
classes, and free dog houses to low-income residences. Additionally the facility may have an
associated crematorium as an accessory use.
Dog runs or individual kennels for an animal shelter can range between 75 and 100 compared to
local boarding facilities which provided up to a maximum of 50 dog runs. Noise and odor may be
possible concerns to neighboring properties and a conditional use permit process would allow
nearby residents opportunity to voice their concerns.
The CMU zone allows a mix of retail, light industrial and residential uses ranging from a single-
family home to apartments. Additionally, areas zoned CMU are often bordered by a mix of
residential zoning.
To alleviate potential impacts a conditional use permit would allow the tools to evaluate the
proposed shelter and associated uses as well as notify the surrounding neighborhood and establish
appropriate mitigation measures to ensure the use is compatible.
Draft code text language to Appendix 19-A (SVMC 19120)has been included in Attachment 2 of the
request for Planning Commission Action(RPCA)to represent the privately initiated proposal.
Staff's recommended draft code text language follows in Attachment 3 RPCA.
E. RECOMMENDED MOTION
I move the Planning Commission recommend approval of CTA-01-12, to allow
animal shelters in the CMU zoning district subject to a conditional use permit, to the
City Council.

RE: Text amendment to SVMC ,
�
Dear Mr. Kuhta:
�
�
The Spokane County Board of County Commissioners is pleased to submit the attached application for a �
text amendment to the City of Spokane Valley Municipal Code. More specifically,the proposal is a text
amendment to Appendix 19-A to allow an Animal Shelter in the Corridor Mixed Use Zone as a Permitted I
(P) use. Or,as an alternative, allow an Animal Shelter in the Corridor Mixed Use Zone as a Permitted use
subject to conditions(S).The animal shelter would be owned and operated by a public entity, not allow
outside runs,the structure housing the animals will be soundproofed to meet the requirements of
Chapter 173-060 WAC, and will comply with the parl<ing, landscaping,and signage standards of Spokane �
Valley Municipa) Code. ;
This text amendment has been initiated by the Board of County Commissioners as provided for under
Section 17.80.150(2)of SVMC and :s consistent with the amendment criteria of Section 17.80.150(F)as '
follows. Amendment of Appendix 19-A is consistent with the applicable provision of the Comprehensive
Plan in that the Corridor Mixed Use designation is intended to enhance travel options and encourage I
development of locally serving commercial uses. Policy LUP-9.2 provides more specificity regarding the „
range of land uses allowed in the Corridor Mixed Use designation and states that"the mix of land uses
allowed should include a full range of retail goods and services and public/quasi-public uses. ,
By way of background, uses currently permitted in the Corridor Mixed Use zone that are of similar or li,
greater intensity,scope,and scale of an animal shelter include light assembly, auto-truck sales, '
department stores, hotel/motel,grocery store, hardware store, hospital, drive in restaurant, and
convenience store. Uses currently permitted in the Corridor Mixed Use zone that are public or quasi- �
public in nature include a college/university, church,schools(k-12), community hall club/lodge, and post
office. Given the above comparison of uses currently permitted in the Corridor Mixed Use zone it is
apparent that an animal shelter owned and operated by a public entity is similar to and of the same or 'il

i
I
lesser scale and intensity that the wide range of uses permitted in the existing zone, is a public use and �
,
therefore consistent with Policy LUP-9.2 � i
In addition,the proposed amendment bears a substantial relationship to the public health,safety, i
welfare,and protection of the environment as approval of the text amendment would allow relocation
of the current Spokane County Regional Animal Control facility to a new location that provides greater I
public access via Trent Avenue,will facilitate consolidation of animal control services by a regional entity
in partnership with participating jurisdictions and will have no adverse impact on the environment as ;
subsequent site development will comply with all applicable development standards of SVMC. li
i
We look forward to working with the City of Spokane Valley in this regional effort and appreciate your I
flexibility in scheduling the text amendment for a Planning Commission study session and public hearing
on July 26, 2012. If you have any questions about the text amendment application or need additional
information please contact me at your convenience. �
