Study Session Agenda,March 19,2013 Page 1 of 1 CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY Request for Council Action Meeting Date: March 19, 2013 Department Director Approval: Check all that apply: ❑ consent ❑ old business ❑ new business ❑ public hearing ❑ information ® admin. report ❑ pending legislation ❑ executive session AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Public Defender Caseload Limits GOVERNING LEGISLATION: The Supreme Court of Washington Order No. 25700-A PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: N/A BACKGROUND: • Beginning October 1, 2013, each public defender attorney will be limited on the number of cases they can work annually. • Each jurisdiction can use a case-weighting system or unweighted system. • For misdemeanor attorneys, the limit will be 400 cases (unweighted) or 300 weighted cases. This anticipates that many of the cases will have a weight of less than one applied. For instance, 200 cases weighted at 1.0 plus 200 cases weighted at .5 would equal 300 weighted cases. • The current annual caseload for Spokane County misdemeanor public defenders is 580. • The potential impact to Spokane Valley is $288,000 in salary and benefits, with additional costs for space, equipment, and overhead. OPTIONS: Work with the Public Defender to implement a case-weighting system and pursue diversion programs and alternatives to incarceration that will reduce caseloads and achieve cost savings in other public safety areas. RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: N/A BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Potential annual increase of $288,000 in salary and benefit costs to the Public Defender Interlocal Agreement. City staff will pursue strategies to mitigate this impact. STAFF/COUNCIL CONTACT: Morgan Koudelka, Senior Administrative Analyst; Erik Lamb, Deputy City Attorney ATTACHMENTS: PowerPoint S`pokane Walley Indigent Defense Caseload Standards March 19 , 2013 Morgan Koudelka, Senior Administrative Analyst Erik Lamb, Deputy City Attorney Background By Order of the Washington Supreme Court, beginning October 1 , 2013 all public defender attorneys in the State of Washington will be subject to annual caseload limits and must meet minimum qualifications standards . The City of Spokane Valley is only responsible for misdemeanors and infractions , not felonies . Spokane Valley contracts with Spokane County to provide indigent defense services for misdemeanor cases . The annual caseload limit for misdemeanor cases is 400 cases , unless a weighted system is adopted , in which case 300 cases is the limit. The reason that the number of cases is lower for a weighted system is that many of the cases could be weighted less than one full case . For instance , 200 cases with a weight of 1 . 0 plus 200 cases with a weight of . 5 would equal 300 weighted cases . Purpose The intent of these caseload standards is to ensure that indigent defendants receive effective representation by allowing qualified public defenders to have the necessary time to devote to all of their cases . Weighted System Cases may be weighted to recognize a greater or lesser workload required compared to an average case . A weighting system must be filed with the State of Washington Office of Public Defense . Spokane Valley would utilize the County' s system . Cases That Can Be Weighted Downward Partial representation Failure to appear Recommencement of proceedings Withdrawals and transfers No filing of new criminal charges Sentence violations Extraditions Cases in specialty or therapeutic courts Attorney not responsible for defending client against underlying charges before or after client's representation. First appearance or arraignment docket Dismissal No expectation of further or continuing representation Early case resolution Diversion Reduction lation on a continuance 5 Requirements Individual public defender attorneys must sign and file annual certifications attesting to compliance with the caseload standards . Individuals jurisdictions that employ these attorneys must adopt policies and procedures related to case-weighting and publish such policies and procedures . A weighting system must be filed with the Washington State Office of Public Defense .Jurisdictions that do not comply with the caseload standards run the risk of litigation . Financial impact Currently, the misdemeanor caseload for the County Public Defender Office is about 580 cases per year per attorney. In order to achieve the unweighted standard of 400 cases per year, seven new misdemeanor attorneys would need to be hired . Spokane Valley comprises 37 . 85% of the misdemeanor workload . If no other steps are taken , the additional cost of salaries and benefits to Spokane Valley will be approximately $ 288 , 000. There will also most likely be additional costs for office space , equipment, and overhead . bounty Progress On February 12 , 2013 , the Spokane County Public Defender presented preliminary case-weighting numbers to the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) . The Spokane County Public Defender created a preliminary weighted system that established a weight of less than 1 for show cause and mental health court cases . His results still showed a need for between 7 and 8 additional misdemeanor attorneys . The BOCC instructed the Public Defender to gather data from other jurisdictions regarding weighting s Opportunity to Reduce Impact Driving While License Suspended Charges - Third Degree (DWLS3) comprise nearly half of all Spokane Valley cases handled by the Public Defender' s Office. This charge typically stems from licenses suspended due to failure to pay a fine in a timely manner. Setting parameters for qualifying cases and diverting the cases to the re-licensing program prior to filing charges with the District Court should greatly lower the number of cases handled by the Public Defender. The City of Spokane has been processing cases this way and has reduced the impact to their criminal justice system and increased their fine revenue. 9 Steps Talon Met with County Public Defender and Budget Office. Public Defender presented a preliminary weighting system to the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC). The BOCC has asked him to look at other jurisdictions. Met with County Prosecutor's Office. Spoke about community service diversion program and ability to divert Driving While License Suspended Third Degree (DWLS3) charges prior to filing . Met with City of Spokane Public Defender. Reviewed weighting system, misdemeanor process through criminal justice system, and diversion programs. Met with Spokane Valley Police Department Chief and Lieutenant. Spoke about use of license plate scanner and ability to bypass direct-file for cases that fit certain parameters. Met with City of Spokane Prosecutor's Office. Learned how they treat DWLS3 charges, pre-filing diversion, and re-licensing program. Spoke with other cities around the state. Kent's weighting system. Walla Walla's interpretation of the caseload standards. Seattle's success with law-enforcement assisted diversion and DWLS3 diversion. 10 Next Steps Identify Criminal Justice Goals for the City. Utilize pre-filing diversion for DWLS3 to reduce Public Defender case- count. Increase utilization of alternatives to incarceration such as day reporting and electronic home monitoring to reduce incarceration costs, reduce recidivism , reduce crime and offset potential increases for public defender services. Explore the use of law enforcement assisted diversion to prevent some qualifying charges from entering the criminal justice system , instead allowing the offender to treat the cause of the crime while helping pay his way. Work with the County to ensure accurate Public Defender case-counting and case-weighting . Find regional solutions to criminal justice inefficiencies. Explore efficiencies within the Public Defender Office. Apply early case resolution techniques to misdemeanor cases. The has applied these to felony cases already. 11 Questions ? CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY Request for Council Action Meeting Date: March 19, 2013 Department Director Approval: Check all that apply: ❑ consent ❑ old business ❑ new business ❑ public hearing ❑ information ® admin. report ❑ pending legislation ❑ executive session AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Stormwater Capital Improvement Program Discussion GOVERNING LEGISLATION: RCW 90.48, Chapter 173-200 WAC, Title 33 U.S.C. 1251-1376; Storm and Surface Water Utility: SVMC 3.80; RCW 36.36.040; PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: 2013 Budget Approval, October 2012 BACKGROUND: Staff has developed the start of a Stormwater Capital Program (SCP). Staff's goal for the SCP is to address top priority stormwater problems and concerns based on public health and welfare need. These problems and concerns are the foundation for developing priority capital projects, which are generated from public requests for service or improvement, regulatory requirements, and the identification of needs by inspection by staff. Funding for stormwater capital projects could come through grants, available capital funds in the Stormwater Utility 402 account, and the Aquifer Protection Area (APA) Fund 403. A number of high priority stormwater projects are needed for construction this year, and staff will highlight these projects at the study session. For upcoming years, staff proposes continuing to apply for outside funding for remaining high- priority projects to maximize local funds to the highest extent. If the City does not receive grants in the amounts required for certain projects, the City could proceed with the project with added local funds or delay the project until funding comes available. Staff will present to Council a presentation describing the development of a new six-year capital improvement program for the Stormwater Utility at the study session. OPTIONS: Discussion RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Concurrence to: 1) Proceed with the 2013 proposed Stormwater capital project list. 2) Proceed with a Budget Amendment to fund the proposed 2013 Stormwater project list; 3) Finalize the proposed Stormwater Capital Improvement Program. BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: At a later date, request a budget amendment to appropriate approximately $500,000 from the Stormwater Utility fund balance to fund 2013 priority projects.

Current roadside landscape conditions can be categorized as follows: 1. Irrigated landscaping, maintained by property owners fronting Appleway Blvd. 2. Non-irrigated swales planted with native grasses that turn brown during summer months. 3. Areas that could add swales to enhance stormwater treatment. 4. Other areas that could be improved aesthetically with landscape improvements. 5. Fencing, hardscape, and other areas prohibitive to landscaping. Staff hired a landscape architectural consultant to review the existing available right-of-way, evaluate the existing swale areas and other potential landscape areas, and develop preliminary cost estimates to beautify Appleway. The consultant and staff finalized a study in December 2012. Staff will provide a presentation describing the highlights and findings of this study at the meeting.

At the April 24, 2012 Council Meeting a motion was passed to confirm the Mayoral Appointments made by Mayor Towey. The Committee consisted of the following individuals: Citizens Ben Small, Grant Person and Robin Toth; Tourism Representatives Keith Backsen, Julie Cohen and Erin Gurtel; Business Representatives John Miller, Wayne Frost and John Guarisco; Youth Members Ben Baker and Josh Ramsey; and Councilmembers Brenda Grassel and Ben Wick. Committees Purpose The goal of the Economic Development Committee was to hear from members of the community gathering information and ideas about projects and/or improvements that could benefit economic development in Spokane Valley, including: • Physical infrastructure improvements such as street and road improvements, signage, park and recreation facilities and other public or private enhancements. • Program and services infrastructure such as safe community, permitting services, code enforcement, park maintenance, street maintenance, etc. • Branding and "key messages" and other community building programs to help identify and promote the City of Spokane Valley as a great place to live and work. The Process The Committee began the process by identifying categories of community representatives that are currently working on economic development within the Spokane Valley, as well as areas previously discussed for potential economic development. Those individuals and groups were identified as representatives in designated categories and defined as Community Stakeholders. In order to help prepare the Stakeholder Groups, the Committee provided the following questions and asked that each group come prepared to give a 15 minute presentation. 1. What does the Spokane Valley area currently offer for your group? 2. What challenges/opportunities do you have? 3. What do you need to expand? 4. How are your goals going to increase jobs/private investment? 5. How can we help? The Committee then dedicated separate meetings to focus on each Stakeholder Group. A total of twelve meetings were held between May 16 and November 8, 2012. Stakeholder Groups and representatives interviewed were: Sports Eric Sawyer, Spokane Regional Sports Commission Phil Champlin, HUB Sports Complex Page 1 1 Hospitality Phil Costello, Washington Restaurant Association Toni Hansen and Jody Sander, Spokane Hotel/Motel Association Cheryl Kilday, Visit Spokane River Andy Dunau, Spokane River Forum Chris Guidotti, Washington State Parks Business Development Nancy Holmes, Greater Spokane Valley Chamber Robin Toth, Greater Spokane Incorporated Workforce Development Mark Mattke, Spokane Area Workforce Development Council Ben Small, Central Valley School District City of Spokane Valley's Zoning and Development Codes Overview Scott Kuhta, Planning Manager Lori Barlow, Senior Planner Mike Basinger, Senior Planner Local Developers Jodi Traeger, Pinecroft Business Park Dennis Crapo, Diamond Rock Construction Ken Tupper, L and L Homes Miscellaneous Nancy Ledeboer, Spokane County Library District Steve Worley, City of Spokane Valley Senior Engineer, Capital Improvement Projects Feedback Received Throughout the process the Committee received enthusiastic feedback and excitement for helping spur economic development within the Spokane Valley. The following goals and projects were brought up in discussions with the Stakeholders: SHORT-TERM GOALS/PROJECTS • Participate as a regional tourism partner • Promote the "free parking" benefits of doing business in the City of Spokane Valley (CSV) • Identify reasons for people to live and do business in the CSV • Promote CSV as a business friendly community • Promote access to the Spokane River • Continue to support and attend Greater Spokane Valley Chamber sponsored events • Provide continued funding for CSV's economic development partners • Support the Chamber's entrepreneurial training classes • Implement a Certified Sites Program Page 1 2 • Create and promote a partnership with the Spokane Area Workforce Development Council to develop a CSV presence • Create educational outreach on activities, changes, and programs the City is involved in • Collaborate with Spokane Transit Authority more actively in route decisions • Continue to provide funding for the HUB and Regional Sports Commission • Review the Regional Sports Commission Project Sports 2012 Vision Team Study(estimated to be released in October) • Investigate the possibility of branding CSV as the "amateur and youth sports capital" • Investigate options for development project sureties currently allowed LONG-TERM GOALS/PROJECTS • Create a vision for CSV—What do we want to be? • Revise the funding process for economic development agencies and lodging tax recipients • Develop a softball/baseball complex • Develop a championship golf course • Develop a cross country course • Develop an ice complex • Expansion of the HUB • Enhance existing sports facilities (i.e. soccer fields at Plante's Ferry Park) • Develop an indoor aquatic complex • Recruit"destination" businesses • More outdoor activities (Randall Survey states 70% of visitors would like more outdoor activities) • Attract a culinary school • Develop plans for street beautification/lighting/signage within the CSV • Support/promote a "Buy Local" Program • Create a location in the CSV that has a great vibe or would be considered a neighborhood destination (like Sherman Avenue in Coeur d'Alene or downtown Spokane) • Develop districts or zones within the CSV that could provide marketing, self-identity and/or grant opportunities • Participate in the Regional Wayfinding and Gateway Signage Program • Create more biking trails • Develop a river park with trails • Promote the Spokane River as a regional/national whitewater and fishing attraction • Help advocate/connect with funding for river enhancements • Partner to help develop a "regional trails" marketing program (i.e. adding pedestrian trails to the www.trails.com website) • Develop enhanced river access at Sullivan Park as part of the Sullivan Bridge replacement project • Provide leadership to develop a regional or Valley trails system website (possibly patterned after the water trail website) • Improve the trail access point at Mission Avenue • Potential land swap for Sullivan Park Land currently owned by the State of Washington • Develop a trail on both sides of the river to allow for a loop within our corridor • Increase the amount of local parks throughout the CSV • Connect current assets to global search engines, parks, trails, river, etc. • Develop a plan for marketing the Spokane River as a destination point Page 1 3 • Promote the development of a restaurant along the Spokane River • Work to renew the agreement between Washington State and the individual cities for river access (the current agreement was signed by the county prior to incorporation) • Determine ownership and funding for capital improvement costs to the Centennial Trail • Implement a Port District • Support educational capital requests to Olympia for better work force development opportunities (example: the next phase of Spokane Valley Tech School) • Create an annexation process for adding areas or parcels into the City • Champion the Bridging the Valley Project • Add a signal light at Pines/Mirabeau Parkway • Create/define a City Center • City Hall Recommendations Knowing that resources are limited and wanting to help focus the City of Spokane Valley's efforts, the Committee puts forth the following recommendations for goals / projects that could make the most direct impact. SHORT-TERM GOALS/PROJECTS Participate as a regional tourism partner. Tourism is a large part of our economy and provides our region with funding from citizens outside of our direct jurisdiction. Discussions with stakeholders suggest that we need more communication and collaboration between the City leadership and other agencies. Promote the City of Spokane Valley as a business friendly community. Throughout the discussions the Committee discovered that there are a lot of misunderstanding and misconceptions surrounding the City of Spokane Valley Operations, particularly in the permitting process. Provide funding for economic development partners including: Greater Spokane Incorporated, Visit Spokane, Spokane Valley Regional Chamber of Commerce, Regional Sports Commission. Reoccurring statements from Stakeholders emphasized that these groups play a major role in economic development or regional promotion by helping create and maintain businesses within our region. The Committee recognizes that funding is the largest limiting factor for tourism promotion. While the City of Spokane Valley does provide some funding, the Committee recommends that the City continue to find ways to enhance funding of these organizations. Promote access to the Spokane River. It was said that we have the most beautiful section of the Spokane River, yet we don't promote it. The Sullivan Hole area is a national attraction for whitewater rafters and fly fishermen. Implement a Certified Sites Program. In order to be competitive with business recruitment we need to provide our economic development partners with additional tools. Businesses looking to expand or locate to our area want to know that their business(s) can be opened without long delays. It is also Page 1 4 important to note the importance of consistency, define what a Certified Site means in Spokane Valley, and provide a process for sites to become certified. LONG-TERM GOALS/PROJECTS Planning: A vision for the City of Spokane Valley will provide the City with a cohesive direction and enable the City to seek funding opportunities. • Encourage the creation and development of districts within the City of Spokane Valley that would provide neighborhood destinations and business marketing opportunities. • Define a city center to provide the City of Spokane Valley with its own identity. River and Recreational Areas: The City of Spokane Valley contains one of, if not the most vibrant section of the Spokane River, yet we don't promote it. • Create a plan for developing and marketing the Spokane River as a major destination. • Create defined access points between the Centennial Trail and the Spokane River(this will help protect the environment and improve river access). • Consider a preventative maintenance program for the Centennial Trail similar to street preservation. Small investments now would prevent expensive projects later on. Sports/Sporting Facilities: With the increase in youth and intramural sports participation, the number of citizens that have to travel throughout the region has also grown. • Enhance existing sports facilities to attract tournaments and events to the area (i.e. soccer fields at Plante's Ferry Park, expansion of the HUB). • Consider making the City of Spokane Valley the youth/intramural sports capital of the region guided by the Sports Commission Project Sports 2012 Vision Study (to be released in the near future). Diversity: Recognize that it is the balance between commercial, industrial and residential that makes our City strong and defines who we are. • Support industrial development by expanding/providing sewer and water availability. • Provide annexation procedures and proactively consider areas designated as urban under the Urban Growth Area (UGA). For example, developers pointed out the shortage of large residential development lots available within the City of Spokane Valley. • With limited resources available for commercial recruitment the City of Spokane Valley should work with strategic partners in recruitment of destination type businesses (i.e. businesses that people are willing to travel for).
