AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Industrial Land Inventory Analysis
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: N/A
PREVIOUS ACTION TAKEN: None
BACKGROUND: The industrial property inventory is an assessment of the industrial property
supply for the City of Spokane Valley (City). The purpose of the industrial property inventory is
to provide an up-to-date understanding of the characteristics, practicality and deficiencies of
industrial properties. This initial analysis identifies vacant industrial properties and the
availability of sewer infrastructure. Using a Geographical Information System (GIS) Assessor's
parcel data and Spokane County Utilities sewer infrastructure data was assembled and
analyzed.
This process classified industrial property into two primary categories, vacant industrial
properties that have sewer and those that do not currently have access to sewer. Industrial
properties constrained by size (less than two acres) were excluded from the analysis.
Using this methodology, it was determined that there is 742 acres of vacant industrial property
within the City. 118 acres of the available vacant industrial property has sewer infrastructure in
place. Essentially, 16% of the vacant industrial property is currently sewered. The majority of
the vacant property without sewer is located east of Flora Road, north of the Spokane River,
south of Trent Avenue (SR-290) and west of the City Boundary.
The following table summarizes the industrial property analysis in the City. See the attached
map for a graphic depiction of the industrial property analysis.
Industrial Property Acreage
Vacant Light Industrial property with sewer 21
Vacant Light Industrial property without sewer 196
Vacant Heavy Industrial property with sewer 97
Vacant Heavy Industrial property without sewer 428
Total Vacant Industrial property 742

APPROVAL CRITERIA: Tiara Racicot 16621 E. Indiana#D-108 Spokane Valley,WA 99216
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Division recommends the Planning Commission deny
the proposed amendment as put forth.
STAFF CONTACT: Christina Janssen,Planner, Community Development Department
ATTACHMENTS:
Exhibit 1: Proposed text amendment to SVMC 19.120
A. BACKGROUND INFORMATION
1. APPLICATION PROCESSING: SVMC Chapter 17.80, Permit Processing Procedures. The
following summarizes application procedures for the proposal.
Process Date
Pre-Application Meeting: 7/2/2013
Application Submitted: 6/25/2013
Determination of Completeness: 7/12/2013
Published Notice of Public Hearing: 6/26/2013 and 8/2/2013
Sent Notice of Public Hearing to staff/agencies: 6/25/2013
PROPOSAL BACKGROUND: The applicant, Tiara Racicot, had preliminary discussions with staff
regarding the proposed text amendment prior to a formal application submittal. The proposal is to modify
Staff Report and Recommendation CTA-2013-0006
Appendix 19-A, Spokane Valley Municipal Code (SVMC) Chapter 19.120 to allow specialized
training/learning schools or studios in the Light Industrial (I-1) district as a Permitted Use and as a
Conditional Use in the Heavy Industrial(I-2)district.
The following is a summary of the applicant's reasoning for making application for this text amendment.
a. Many of these uses require high ceilings (above 20 ft), large run and workout areas and increased
square footages. These types of spaces are not readily available in commercial and office areas and
can generally only be found in industrial or light manufacturing areas.
b. Allowing these uses in the industrial zones will provide additional commercial opportunities to
building owners.
c. Requiring these facilities to locate in commercial and office zones will consume vacant
developable ground that may be better suited for other higher and best uses. Additionally,utilizing
existing facilities in a re-use fashion reduces the need for expansion of the built environment,
allows for the adaptive re-use of existing buildings and facilitates economic vitality of the
surrounding area.
d. The applicant referenced the following goals and policies from the Comprehensive Plan as support
for their proposal.
LUG-14
EDG-1,2,4
B. FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS SPECIFIC TO THE MUNICIPAL CODE TEXT
AMENDMENT
1. Compliance with Title 17(General Provisions) of the Spokane Valley Municipal Code
a. Findings:
SVMC 17.80.150(F) Municipal Code Text Amendment Approval Criteria
i. The City may approve Municipal Code Text amendment,if it finds that
(1) The proposed text amendment is consistent with the applicable provisions of the
Comprehensive Plan;
Staff Comment: The proposed amendment is not consistent with the Spokane Valley
Comprehensive Plan as evidenced below:
LUG-10: Provide for the development of well planned industrial areas and ensure
the long-term holding of appropriate land in parcel sizes adequate to allow for future
development as industrial uses.
LUG-11: A variety of strategically located heavy industrial areas should be
designated and protected from conflicting land uses.
LUP-11.1: Commercial, residential and recreational uses should be limited or not
allowed in areas designated for industry, except for small-scale ancillary commercial
and recreational uses intended to primarily serve the industrial area.
LUP-11.2: Conversion of designated industrial lands to other uses should be strictly
limited to ensure an adequate land supply.
Page 2 of 3
Staff Report and Recommendation CTA-2013-0006
LUP-12.1: Commercial, residential and recreational uses shall be limited or not
allowed in areas designated for light industry, except for small-scale ancillary
commercial and recreational uses primarily to serve the industrial area.
(2) The proposed amendment bears a substantial relationship to the public health, safety,
welfare, and protection of the environment;
Staff Comment: Public health, safety and welfare are not furthered by allowing
these facilities in the City's industrial areas. Locating incompatible uses such as
industry and specialized learning schools next to each other creates significant safety
concerns as well as decreases the amount of land available for industrial
development.
b. Conclusion(s):
After a thorough review, staff was unable to find any goals and policies to support the
proposed text amendment and has determined that the amendment is not consistent with the
approval criteria contained in the SVMC. Comprehensive Plan policies limit commercial and
recreational uses in Light and Heavy Industrial areas primarily to individuals working and
doing business in those areas. Specialized training/learning schools and studio type uses(i.e.
dance studios,gymnastics training,karate training), are not typically oriented and marketed to
industrial areas.
(3) Finding and Conclusions Specific to Public Comments
a. Findings:
No public comments have been received to date.
b. Conclusion(s):
Adequate public noticing was conducted for CTA-2013-0006 in accordance with adopted
public noticing procedures
(4) Finding and Conclusions Specific to Agency Comments
a. Findings:
No agency comments have been received to date.
b. Conclusion(s):
No concerns are noted.
C. OVERALL CONCLUSION
A detailed review has determined that the code text amendment is not consistent with the
Comprehensive Plans policies and goals.
D. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Division, after careful review and consideration of the applicable approval criteria,
recommends denial of the proposed code text amendment.

CTA-2013-0006 :
Christina Janssen, Planner, started her presentation on CTA-2013-0006, a privately
initiated Code Text Amendment, SVMC Chapter 19.120, to allow specialized
training/learning studios as permitted use in the I-1 zone and a conditional use in the I-2
zone.
Ms. Janssen informed Commissioners how the City Council allowed indoor recreational
and entertainment facilities in the Light and Heavy Industrial zones as a permitted use. Ms.
Janssen explained the difference between this use and the entertainment recreation facility.
The recreational and entertainment uses would be a bowling alley or indoor soccer center,
where individuals would go to recreate at their own leisure. Specialized training and
learning schools deal with instruction have a teaching staff and participate in classes. Ms.
Janssen explained that Spokane Valley Municipal Code, Section 17.80. 150(f) outlines two
criteria that must be met in order to approve the amendment:
1. The proposed amendment needs to be consistent with the applicable provisions of the
Comprehensive plan.
2. 2 The amendment must bear a substantial relationship with the public health safety

Ms. Janssen went over the approval criteria, Chapter 2-Land use, Light and Heavy
Industry, application materials, the classifications from the City of Spokane, Spokane
County, and City of Liberty Lake. All three cities allow this type of use in their industrial
zones. Ms. Janssen explained the conditional use permit process: the Hearing Examiner
process and the recommendations.
Questions:
Commissioner Anderson asked why we deny anyone in the heavy industrial area from
renting, leasing or buying. Mr. Kuhta responded that some jurisdictions take the approach
of each successive intensive zone would allow everything that is less intensive. Other
jurisdictions take the approach that industrial areas are intended just for industry. Industrial
areas are available for high employment and high paying wage jobs.

Commissioner Stoy asked if there is any vacant ground available for a brand new facility or
is this going to be leasable spaces that this is going to effect. Ms. Janssen responded that
she did not know. However, the interaction with this applicant and others interested in this
type of use is that they looking for large open span buildings without the support poles
which are typically found in industrial areas. Further, rent in the industrial areas is more
reasonable.

report will be submitted into the next Planning Commission packet. Commissioner Bates
