voted to formally integrate the two organizations. The new model which will launch
first quarter 2007, will combine the strengths of both organizations and take economic O
development and business advocacy to a new level.
"These was a consensus around the table today and an understanding that we are in a
very competitive situation across the globe. This opportunity to integrate formalizes our
decision to make a real difference for the community - collectively and collaboratively,"
said Heidi Stanley, Chamber Board Chair.
EDC Board Chair Tom Fritz, commented on the new model, "Over the past few years,
the organizations have built a very collaborative approach to economic development and
business advocacy. In response to the business community, we are uniting the groups in
order to create a world-class regional business climate. We will leverage each other's
strengths, and raise the bar by building off our successes and the organizations' talented
and professional staffs."
The new business model will be led by Rich Hadley, current President of the Spokane O~
Regional Chamber of Commerce. The organization will get a new name and a refined
focus on key deliverables for economic development, public policy, talent development

Item: Check all that apply: ❑ consent ® old business ❑ new business ❑ public hearing
❑ information ❑ admin. report ❑ pending legislation
AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Urban Growth Area recommendation from Spokane Valley Planning
Commission.
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: Washington State Growth Management Act, RCW 36.70.A.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: Planning Staff previously discussed Urban Growth Area
issues with Council on August 9, 2005 and November 1, 2005. Council directed staff to develop
a proposal for City of Spokane Valley UGA's in conjunction with Spokane County's
Comprehensive Plan update process. Council reviewed the Planning Commission
recommendation on November 28, 2006 directing staff to prepare an analysis of 3 new areas for
UGA consideration. Council reviewed new information provided by staff at their December 12,
2006 meeting. After discussion, Council requested that staff provide all letters received by the
Planning Commission and Commission meeting minutes.
BACKGROUND: Spokane County is conducting a 5-year update of its Comprehensive Plan,
which was adopted November 15, 2001. The update includes a review of Urban Growth Area
(UGA) boundaries as required by the Countywide Planning Policies (CWPP) for Spokane
County. The Growth Management Act (GMA) gives counties the authority to adopt population
projections and to establish UGAs, in consultation with cities.
Important steps in the update process include:
• Spokane County adopts a 20-year countywide population projection.
• Population projection is allocated to jurisdictions.
• Cities and County develop UGA proposals.
• Steering Committee of Elected Officials reviews UGA proposals, then makes
recommendation to Board of County Commissioners (BOCC).
• BOCC adopts new UGAs.
The City of Spokane Valley adopted its first Comprehensive Plan on April 25, 2006. The
Comprehensive Plan focuses on growth and development only within the current City limits.
Spokane Valley is participating in the County's Comprehensive Plan update and will propose
UGAs for Spokane Valley's future growth.
State law requires Spokane County and cities to update their Comprehensive Plans by
December, 2006. Due to delays adopting a 20-year population projection and allocation,
Spokane County has decided to separate the Urban Growth Area update from the overall
Comprehensive Plan update. The Growth Management Act requires UGA updates every 10
years while the Countywide Planning Policies require a 5-year update. New UGAs will likely be
adopted during the 2007 County Comprehensive Plan amendment process.
Population Proiection and Allocations
Spokane County projects that the County will grow by approximately 197,000 people by the
year 2026. The Countywide projection as been allocated to all jurisdictions with Spokane Valley
receiving about 33,100 people for planning purposes.
Urban Growth Areas
UGAs are defined by a boundary where new growth and development is encouraged. Land
outside UGAs is considered "rural" land, with residential lot sizes limited to 5, 10 and 20 acres.
UGA's must be sized to accommodate the 20-year population projection.
Land Quantity Analysis (LOA)
To determine how much land is needed to accommodate the projected population growth, each
jurisdiction is required to conduct a land capacity analysis using a regional methodology The
general steps are as follows:
1. Determine amount of vacant land
2. Determine amount of land that is partially used but could redeveloped
3. Remove land affected by critical areas (wetlands, shorelines, etc.)
4. Remove public/quasi public land (schools, utilities, state, federal, etc.)
5. Deduct 20% that will be used for public purposes.
6. Deduct 30% for land that will not be available for development.
This analytical exercise yields the number of developable acres within a specified area. The
acreage is then converted into potential new dwelling units, as determined by residential
densities allowed by the Comprehensive Plan. For example, 10 developable acres in the Low
Density Residential category is multiplied by 4 units per acre, yielding 40 total potential new
dwelling units. The total dwelling units is then multiplied by 2.5 (2.5 people per dwelling unit) in
single family areas and 2 in multi-family areas to determine the population that could be
accommodated. In our example, 40 dwelling units would accommodate 100 people.
To determine Spokane Valley's capacity for growth, the LQA is first applied within the current
City boundary. Existing unincorporated Urban Growth Areas adjacent to the City are analyzed
next, and then Urban Reserve Areas. Spokane Valley's Land Quantity Analysis results are as
follows:
Potential UGAs Vacant and Partially Net Developable Potential New Dwelling Population
Used Acres Acres Unfts Capacity

The geographic subareas referenced in the table are shown on the attached map titled "City
Council UGA Analysis". As shown in the table above, these potential UGAs have the capacity
to accommodate the population allocated to the City by Spokane County.
Facilities and Services
New growth places new demands on public facilities and services. The GMA requires that each
jurisdiction quantify the impacts of new development on public facilities and services, identify
future deficiencies, and determine costs for new infrastructure. Each jurisdiction must then
show how the required capital improvements will be funded. The table displays acres of land in
water districts and percentage of land that is currently sewered by subarea.

Once Council identifies a preferred UGA boundary, Planning Staff will prepare an update to the
Capital Facilities Plan to be incorporated into the 2007 Annual Comprehensive Plan amendment
process.
PLANNING COMMISSION PROCESS: After a series of public meetings and hearings, and
after reviewing all public comments, the Planning Commission voted (4 to 2) to recommend to
Council UGAs as depicted on the attached map titled "Planning Commission Recommended
UGAY. UGA meetings and hearings were conducted on the following dates:
• August 24, 2006 - UGA Open House
• September 28, 2006 - Planning Commission Workshop
• October 12, 2006 - Planning Commission Public Hearing
• October 26, 206 - Continued Hearing
• November 8, 2006 - Continued Hearing, final recommendation
Commission members voting "no' expressed concern about allowing growth in the east end of
the City served by Central Valley School District after the District's bond proposal failed.
Another concern related to an irregular existing UGA boundary north of Wellesley Road at Flora.
CITY COUNCIL REVIEW: City Council reviewed the Planning Commission's recommendation
at their November 28, 2006 regular meeting. Council did not suggest that any land be deleted
from the Planning Commission's recommendation; however, Council directed Staff to provide
information on 3 additional areas for consideration as Spokane Valley UGAs. These areas are
displayed on the attached map titled "City Council UGA Analysis'. The following table shows
that the areas requested by Council for further analysis can accommodate about 7,769 people.

Staff Analysis:
CCR-1: Planning Staff suggested additional land in this area to establish a more logical UGA
boundary. To accomplish this, Staff supports adding land to the west of the existing UGA identified
as "Northeast". This area in general has received significant opposition to adding more land to the
UGA.
CCR-2a: Council expressed interest in this area because of the potential development impacts on
the City. The area is a natural gateway to our City.
CCR-2b: This area is a desired UGA by the City of Liberty Lake.
CCR-3: Planning Staff does not support adding any of this area to the UGA because it does not
meet criteria established by Spokane County. The area contains a significant flood plain and is
designated Rural Conservation by they County. Urban density development could potentially
adversely impact the Dishman Hills natural area.
Council directed staff to provide all request letters reviewed by the Planning Commission and
Commission meeting minutes.
OPTIONS:
1. Move to request UGAs consistent with Planning Commission recommendation.
2. Move to request UGAs consistent with Planning Commission recommendation and with
additional land.
3. Provide additional direction to Staff.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the following motion. Move to request City of
Spokane Valley Urban Growth Areas as recommended by the Spokane Valley Plannin.1
Commission including the following property (Council to decide
additional property)

AZZ as park of the City's. UGA.
The property is adjacent to and north of the Highland Estates property, for which $ request for
l~~Y~
inclusion into the UGA has ben submitted by the property owner. Due to the size of this
undeveloped property, it pmsenfa a unique opportunity for a neighborhood community inchrding
open spa", recreational amenities arnl a mix of housing types. Over the past few years, I have
seen developers and bum[ders struggle to find moron 5 or 10 acre panels so that the economics of
developraent um provide affordable housing.
This property would have access off ofForker and Campbell Roads. Water and sewer will be
available from Trventwood Irrigation District and Spokane County, respectively. The developer of
Highland Estates is extending sewer into the Highlands project, The sewer line is 15" and has
been ovmi7 d to accommodate additional development in this area..
Thank you four your consideration of this property for inclusion Into the UGA. If you need any
additional infonn,atron, please contact me.

Thank you for the opportunity to submit comments on the proposed City of Spokane
• EY..rtl►Me6
Valley Urban Growth Areas. This letter is written on behalf of Viktor Sizov, who owns
• Ar.rr r M1. n14
3b d. approximately 40 acres acres of land that is depicted on the attached map.
It appears the property is either inside the Proposed City UGA or immediately adjacent.
For the following reasons, we request the property be included in the Valley UGA.
Criteria for Desilma >nBt Urban Growth Areas
The Growth Management Act ("GMA") sets forth the criteria for designating areas for
urban growth. The GMA specifically provides that urban growth should be located first
in areas already characterized by urban growth that have adequate existing public facility
and service capacities to serve such development, second in areas already characterized i
by urban growth that will be served adequately by a combination of both existing public
facilities and services and any additional needed public facilities and services that are
provided by either public or private sources, and third in the remaining portions of the
urban growth areas. RC W 36.70A.110.
This area is characterized by "urban growth." Most of the property along 8'h Avenue is
developed with single-family homes and the property north of and adjacent to the subject
property is developed with single family homes. The site is served by the Consolidated 1
Water District # 19 and sewer can be provided. The site is also within the Public Transit
Benefit Area Finally, this site has easy access to schools, jobs, and services located in
both the City of Liberty Lake and City of Spokane Valley.

Urban Reserve Designation
The area is designated as Urban Reserve. These areas are the first to be included within
the UGA. Further, Urban Reserve areas which are already characterized by urban growth
and have public services and facilities available will be given even greater consideration.
The Urban Reserve designation makes it appropriate for inclusion into the UGA.
Summary
Based upon the criteria set forth in the GMA, and the above factors, this property is
appropriate for inclusion in the UGA.
Sincerely yours,

Re: inclusion of our parcels in the City.
Dear Mr. Basinger:
Thank you for answering my question earlier today regarding the possibility of including
our parcels in the city of Spokane Valley.
We have two parcels as follows:
Street Address 2913 S. Proglms Road
Tax Parcel #E45264.1139 in the name of Jason & Amy Priebe. 3.21 acres with one residence
on it The residence is occupied by Jason & Amy. We built the home last year. It is being
held in their names for financing reasons.
Street Address 2917 S, Progrm Road
Tax Parcel #F45264.1140 in the name of Floyd & Linda Schmedding. It is approximately
89 acre with one mobile horns on it.
We are looking into developing the combined parcels as soon as possible and would like to
be included in any plans the city has for extending the OMA lute and or the board of the
city itself.
These pArcels am bordered by developments, one directly south and another directly east.
Enclosed is a copy of a map of the immediate area. please give me a call when you get this
so I can understand the process.
Sincerely
oyd P. Schmedding

RE Proposed Urban Growth Area Roundary for City of Spokane Malley
Property € caner- Ken Tupper, et al.
Dear Scott:
Thank you for the oppQrtmay to submit comments can the proposed City of Spokane
Malley Urban Growth Areas. This setter is written an behAlf of Ken Tupper and his
partners, who own approximately 53 acres of land that is depicted can the attached map.
For the following reasons, we request the property he included in the Valley UGA,
The Growth Management Act ("GMK') sets forth the criteria for designating areas for
urban growth. The I++f,A specifically provides that urban growth should be located first
in areas already characterized by urban growth that have adequate existing public facility
and service capacities to serve such development, second in areas already characterized
by urban growth, that wilI be served adequately by a combination of both existing public
facilities and services and any additional named public facilities and services that are
provided by either public or private sources, and third in the remaining portions of the
urban growth areas, RC 3G_70A.110.
The property is located adjacent to the existing city limits and inclusion of the property
into the UGA presents an opportunity for residential development in a developing area
with convenient access to schools, jobs, and services. The Spokane Valley Mall is
located within minutes of the site, as is the Spokwie Industrial and Business Park
Services can be provided economically to this site. The site could be serviced by an
extension of Trentvwood Water District #3 and sewer could be provided by Spokane
County. With respect to transportatim this site can be accessed via Progress Road, a
proposed urban }principal road which is currently planned to undergo a major realignment
and widening. When completed, Progress Road will become a major transportation
corridor and urban development along the same is appropriate.
As noted above, this property is adjacent to an area already characterized by urban
growth-- the City of Spokane Valley. Existing public facilities such as roads, water and
sewer can be extended to serve the property. Any necessary extensions to serve new
development will be financed by the developer.
If I can provide any additional information, please ntact me,
Very Truly Fours,
Stanley R. Schultz

«COMM This letter follows our recent phone conversation regarding the status of the City of
: Spokane Valley's Urban Growth Area Boundary and Comprehensive Plan Update. As I
a~IlrW
mentioned, we represent a client who owns approximately 53 acres of property that is
adjacent to the City's corporate limits. A map is enclosed for your reference.
. A...a.ri►WaTal
The property owners have filed a request with Spokane County to include the property
into the County's Urban Growth Area. However, due to the proximity of the property to
the corporate limits of the City, it is logical that the property be included in the City's
UGA, rather than the County's UGA. I have enclosed a copy of the application that was
submitted to Spokane County, which outlines why inclusion of this property into the
UGA is appropriate. We request that this property be considered and included in the
City's UGA.
I would appreciate if you would keep me advised of the planning activities of the City, as
they relates to the designation of the UGA boundary. Again, thank you for your
assistance on this matter.
Sincerely yours,
WITI IERSPOON, KELLEY, DAVENPORT

ATTACHMENT TO ANNUAL COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT
APPLICATION
1) Describe why the amendment is being proposed.
The applicant is requesting to include the subject property (approximately 53 acres) into the
Urban Growth Area boundary and have the property designated Low Density Residential.
The property owner intends to develop this property into single family residences. The
property is within a rapidly growing area north of an adjacent to the City of Spokane Valley.
Housing needs are not being met by the current housing supply in this area. Inclusion of this
property into the UGA will provide additional land supply for much needed housing.
2) Describe how the proposed amendment is consistent with the Goals and Policies of the
Comprehensive Plan.
The amendment would further the comprehensive plan's goal of providing for adequate land
to accommodate growth. UL-18. Inclusion of this property in the County's UGA is consistent with
the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
First, development of this property is consistent with the GMA's goal of encouraging
development in areas where urban services can be provided economically. Countywide Planning
Policies ("CWPP'J 3, pg. 9. Services can be provided economically to this site. The site could be
serviced by an extension of Trentwood Water District #3. A portion of the property is within the fire
protection boundaries ofFirc District 9 and the remainder is within Fire District 1. The site is served
by the East Valley School District #351. Finally, this site can be accessed via Progress Road, a
proposed urban principal road which is currently planned to undergo a major realignment and
widening, which may bisect the property.
Second, the planning principles of the Urban Land Use chapter encourage development
opportunities that foster innovative approaches to land use, and promote compact urban forms which
encourage a greater sense of "community" Comp Plan, pg. UL-1. Housing, jobs and services
should be within "shorter commutes"of each other. Comp Plan, pg. UL-1. This site presents a
opportunity for residential development in a developing area with convenient access to schools, jobs,
and services. The Spokane Valley Mall is located within minutes of the site, as is the Spokane
Industrial and Business Park.
The owner intends to develop this site into a "cluster" development, which will protect the
slopes on the site. This type of development is consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan
to preserve open space and slopes. See RL 1.9-1.10.
ATTACHMENT TO ANNUAL COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT
APPLICA1ION-1
d~~
Keith Rieckers, et of
This site is appropriate for inclusion into the UGA, because it will provide necessary land
for housing to accommodate the rapid growth of this area's population, and will do so in a manner
that is consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan.
3) Describe the amendment request and, if a map amendment, the public road(s) fronting the
width of the property.
The owner requests an amendment of the comprehensive plan to include its property within
the boundaries of the Urban Grown Area. The property is adjacent to Forker Road to the west and
Progress Road to the south As noted above, the County is proposing to redlign and widen Progress
Road, which is a planned Urban Principal Arterial. This alignment is expected to bisect the property.
4) if a map amendment, describe the land uses surrounding the proposed amendment.
The surrounding area is a mix of developed and undeveloped land. The developed land
consists of mixed urban uses within the City of Spokane Valley. The undeveloped land is urban
reserve land that will be developed in the near future.
S) What are the changed condidons of the area that you believe make this proposal warranted?
Since the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan and Urban Growth Area boundaries in 2002,
the area to the south has incorporated as the City of Spokane Valley. The City of Spokane Valley
and surrounding area continues to experience rapid commercial, office, and residential growth. The
City is expected to grow and expand its corporate boundary. This property is appropriate for
inclusion into the UGA of the City of Spokane Valley.
New housing construction is occurring, but the demand for this construction is outstripping
the supply and there is a greater need for further residential construction in this area. Progress Road
is set to become a major urban arterial and the properties surrounding it should be zoned to reflect
this.
6) What impact-or perceived impact-will the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendment and
zone reclassification have on the adyacent properties?
Development of this site into a residential site is not expected to adversely affect adjacent
properties. The site can be accessed (via extensions of public stroets) from Progress Road which is
a proposed urban principal road and Forker Road. The development standards of the Spokane
County Zoning Code (or City of Spokane Valley) will ensure any impacts are mitigated through
setbacks, landscaping, limitations on building height, etc.
ATFAC14ME.NT TO ANNUAL COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT
APPLICATION-2 -715
Keith Rieckers, et at
7) What factors support the Comprehensive Plan amendment and zone reclassification request?
The surrounding area continues to experience rapid growth. Demand for housing continues
to outpace supply and this proposed development will help meet this demand.
As discussed under Question 2 above, the project will implement the goals and policies of
the comprehensive plan.
8) What measures do you propose to mitigate your proposal 's Impact on surrounding land use?
The proposed land use will have little or no impact on surrounding land use. To the extent
necessary, the property owner will use "clustering" to minimize impacts and conserve critical areas.
The development standards of the Spokane County Zoning Code (or City of Spokane Valley) will
ensure any impacts are mitigated through setbacks, landscaping, limitations on building height, etc.
9) What Issue is addressed or problem solved by the proposed amendment?
If the amendment is approved, it will provide much needed additional land for development
which is in short supply in the area of this site. Also, inclusion of this site in the UGA boundaries
will be consistent with the County's plan to expand Progress Road and have it a primary urban
arterial.

CV axnaa Dear Scott.
r~i.w N~♦
Thank you for the opportunity to submit comments regarding the proposed City of
Spokane Valley Urban Growth Areas. This letter is written on behalf of Jack Kestell,
• who owns several hundred acres that are depicted on the attached map. For the following
.....rr.uwr .y reasons, we request the property be included in the Valley UGA.
Prop; M Description
The property is commonly known as Monte Del Ray or Highland Estates. The property
is vested for development of 480 lots, with 212 platted to date. The property is served by
the Pioneer Water System, which has capacity for approximately 1,000 residential units.
Sewer has been extended to the property pursuant to a sewer extension agreement with
Spokane County Utilities.
'llie property is located adjacent to the City limits. The residents in this development
travel the city streets and obtain services from businesses within the City. It simply
makes sense that the property be included as part of the City.
Criteria to Designate Urban Growth Areas
Both the GMA criteria for UGA's and case law support inclusion of the property.
Pursuant to RCW 36.70A.110, areas which are "already characterized by urban growth"
should take priority for inclusion into an UGA. The Washington State Supreme Court
has addressed the issue of whether areas that are either planned for development or are
vested are considered "already characterized by urban growth. See Quadrant Corp. v.
Central Puget Sound Growth Management Hearings Board 154 Wn.2d 224, 235(2005).

City of Spokane Val:
c/o Ms. Marina Sukkup
11707 East Sprague
I am writing this letter in objection to the i J G A boundary requests in the Ponderosa
neighborhood. If you review the data from the Ponderosa PUD submittal by Lance
Douglass, you will find several factual issues that were submitted by the public that thi;
area has. This information is imperative and pertinent to the development in this area.
This area is designated by the Department of Natural Resources as high for wildfi: c
potential. In the 1990s this neighborhood had a major fire and many were unable :o Ica c
because of the lack of adequate ingress/egress, again please refer to the information
submitted for the Douglass application. There is a newspaper quote from then
Commissioner Hasson that said he wished he hadn't approved a subdivision plat in this
area that was in the process at this time in the 1990s because there was a realization of the
potential safety hazard that exists in this area.
Despite this event, the politicians continue to ignore the data and have allowed the Aspen
Meadows by developer Bryan Walker, Crapo subdivision, and the Douglass subdivision
to be approved on the County side. The records reflect that the neighborhood has
constantly stated that this area is a high fire hazard and wildlife critical habitat area.
There is a map that shows the amount of development that has been allowed despite the
fire catastrophe and habitat classification.
One of the things stated at the Douglass application was the report that said that everyone
could leave this area in 30 minutes. Has this been analyzed with regards to the amount of
time that the neighborhood will be able to escape with the added development that the
expanded UGA will allow? Anyone can see that this area is so highly developed with
limited access during emergencies that the neighborhood will he devastated when the
next fire starts.
This area has also been designated as critical habitat for ~~ildlife by the \Vashington i-isle
and Wildlife. This is also evidenced by the numerous deer, coyotes, elk, etc. ar- -11
area. Constantly expanding into this wildlife cw r7c1nr hrj jc illy jti ;,Jnnrim- th_-
clnssific ition of conservation for this arc i_
Growth management is a failure. Not because of the legislation but how this is being
interpreted to allow development to continue on steep slopes, erosionable soils, and
wildlife critical habitat. These sensitive areas were to be protected by GMA but basically
this is not enforced.
GMA also states that it is critical that public services, such as schools, parks, police, and
fire need to be in place before development. Just because there is an elementary school
doesn't necessarily mean that it has the capacity to hold the numbers of expected students
that will want to attend. In fact in this year's election includes a school bond issue on the
ballot because development is not paying its share of the costs. GMA also allows impact
fees but there has been no mention of this within the proposal for the expanded UGA
boundaries. Who is going to pay for the additional costs us the taxpayers, correct?
Impact fees are one of those items that aren't politically acceptable so therefore while we
are expanding the UGA to stay in compliance with GMA, impact fees are ignored.
There are some serious issues within the expansion of the UGA in the Ponderosa
neighborhood. Ingress/egress, safety in emergencies, and who pays are just some of the
equity issues within the request to expand the UGA. Other issues, such as lack of parks,
lack of adequate sewer and water infrastructure, are other problems and concerns in this
area. The developers are using GMA and interpreting the legislation to allow them to
develop and not pay the impacts that it is causing. The City of Spokane Valley can not
continue to ignore that this is also a part of GMA.
Sincerely,

We understand that City of Spokane Valley is updating it's Comprehensive Plan this
year. Please consider this letter as a request for inclusion of the above referenced parcel
within the City of Spokane Valley's Urban Growth Boundary for future residential use.
We have already requested that Spokane County include the 5 acre parcel in their
Comprehensive Plan.
The parcel is directly across Sullivan Road from property that is already in the County's
urban Reserve area. There are actually properties to the north, and south that are being
considered to being included in the Urban Growth boundaries, and Urban Reserve.
We believe that including this parcel in the Urban Growth Boundary is necessary for a
natural extensio of growth in development in this area.

Dear Scott:
Thank you for the opportunity to submit comments on the proposed City of Spokane
Valley Urban Growth Areas. This letter is written on behalf of Dan Ruddell, who owns
approximately 43 acres of land that is depicted on the attached map. The property is
shown as being included within the City's proposed UGA. We appreciate the City's
inclusion of this property into the UGA, and offer the following comments in support of
the decision to include this property into the UGA
One, the property is located in an area that is already characterized by urban growth. The
property to the east is developing as part of the Twin Bridges and Saltese Meadows
projects. The property to the west is developing as part of the Morningside development.
With those developments, public facilities such as water, sewer, power, cable and others
have been extended and are available to service this property.
Two, the area is designated as Urban Reserve. These areas are the first to be included
within the UGA Further, Urban Reserve areas which are already characterized by urban
growth and have public services and facilities available will be given even greater
consideration. The Urban Reserve designation makes it appropriate for inclusion into
the UGA.
Based upon the criteria set forth in the GMA, and the above factors, this property is
appropriate for inclusion in the UGA.

AID ~r 6
er.Tw
. AI..!`Ww ,approximately 236 acres of land that h is depicted on the attached map. For the following
reasons, we request the property be included in the Valley U GA.
Criteria for Designating Urban Growth Areas
The Growth Management Act ("GMAT') sets forth the criteria for designating areas for
urban growth. The GMA specifically provides that urban growth should be located first
in areas already characterized by urban growth that have adequate existing public facility
and service capacities to serve such development, second in areas already characterized
by urban growth that will be served adequately by a combination of both existing public
facilities and services and any additional needed public facilities and services that are
provided by either public or private sources, and third in the remaining portions of the
urban growth areas. RCW 36.70A.110.
This area is characterized by "urban growth" evidenced by the new residential growth
that is occurring in the Saltese Meadows and Twin Bridges developments. To the west,
the area continues to develop as part of the Morningside project
With respect to logical UGA boundaries, this property provides a logical south boundary,
as it is the last open parcel before the landscape transitions into a more rural, treed area.
Urban Reserve Designation
The area is designated as Urban Reserve. These areas are the first to be included within
the UGA. Further, Urban Reserve areas which are already characterized by urban growth
i+'M ,Mnrricnn H ud'.II'taKu hte l (KYli16 Juc
Scott KAM
October 4, 2006
Page 2
and have public services and facilities available will be given even greater consideration.
The Urban Reserve designation makes it appropriate for inclusion into the UGA.
Public Facilities
A 24-inch sewer extension is located near the property. In addition, the Saltese Pump
Station is sized to provide service to this property as it is within the designated General
Facilities Charge Reimbursement Basin (see attached Sewer Extension Agreement).
With respect to transportation, Spokane County is working with Mr. Morrison to acquire
the necessary right-of-way to construct improvements and realign Barker Road. This will
provide added capacity and improve safety of the roadway. All utilities are available to
the property, including Vera water, Vera power, gas, cable and telephone. In sum, all
necessary facilities are available to serve the property.
Summary
Based upon the criteria set forth in the GMA, this property is appropriate for inclusion in
the UGA for the following reasons: (1) the property is located in an area already
characterized by urban growth, whether developed or approved; and (2) existing public
facilities including roads, water and sewer lines are located in the vicinity of the property. 1
Any necessary extensions to serve new development will be financed by the developer.
If you need any additional information, please contact.

RE: Spokane County Comprehensive Plan Update Process
Dear Mr. Manson:
Please consider this letter as the City of Spokane Valley's formal response to the
County's distribution of a `draft Urban Growth Area (UGA) expansion map and public
facility evaluation forms.
The City of Spokane Valley requests in wridng the County's intent for the fled Rpotential
UGAe surrounding our City. tt appears that the County is considering these areas as
future unincorporated UGAs. This is a bit confi.sing because these are areas that will be
evaluated as paterrW growth areas for the City of Spokane Valley.
We also requests in writing the intended process and timeline that the County will
employ to adopt new Urban Growth Areas as a part of the 2006 Comprehensive Plan
Update. Thefe are many Important milestones in the update process and all jurisdictions
should clearly understand their respective respo nsibilfies.
Spokane Valley will use the following standard planning process to develop our Urban
Growth Area proposal.
1. Spokane Valley planning staff will prepare a UCA anatyscs, based on criteria
set forth in the Cowrtyvrude Planning Policies, spe Acally r r`cy Topic i -
Urban Gro h Areas. The City will look to accommodate our albcated
population as follows, h order
a. Growth capacity inside City limits.
b. Growth capacity in existing UGAs adjacent to Spokane Valley-
c- Urban Reserve Areas
2. Spokane Valleys planning staff will conduct open houses in August to initiate
the citizen parhicipation process. The intent of these open houses is to begin
a dialogue and exchange information wtkh Spokane Valley and
unincorporated County residents on growth issues.
I
3. Spokane Valley Planning Commission will conduct workshops and public
hearings on the potential Urban Growth Areas, akxrg with a Draft Capital i
Facilities Plan update. The Commission will forward a recommended Urban
Growth Area to the Spokane Valley City Council.
4. City Council may conduct public hearings on the Planning Commission's
recommended Urban Growth Area proposal and Capital Facilities Plan.
Council will forward their UGA proposal to the Steering Committee of Elected
Officials by the end of October, 2006.
The City of Spokane Valley looks forward to continued collaboration on this important
comprehensive plan update.

Dear Neighbors,
We live at the comer of Maringo and Willow. As you may recall, last year our
neighborhood learned that 500-700 homes can be built in the vacant land along the
Centennial Trail just to the east of us. What shocked us was that we suddenly
discovered that Inland Empire Paper Company (the company that owns the mill across
the river and the developable land), Washington State Parks, and Spokane County, had
quietly made a deal to swap small pieces of land at the end of Maringo that has the net
effect of connecting Maringo Drive to that vacant land. Before the land swap, Maringo
was specifically dead-ended at the Centennial Trail head to serve only the existing
pumping station and emergency vehicles; under this new deal, Maringo can become a
very, very busy street handling literally thousands of cars per day when those 600-700
new homes are built and those folks want to get to Argonne, Trent, the freeway,
shopping, etc.
Our neighborhood only found out about this proposed land swap at the last minute. We
hastily organized, testified at hearings in Spokane and Coulee City, and lobbied who we
thought might be able to help. Our concerns. were essentially ignored. It was a done
deal before we even knew what was going on.
The Mill manager assures us there is no plan to develop that land In the near future.
We accept his word on that, but know It will eventually happen and we have to be ready
and engaged In the process to mitigate the threat of thousands of cars speeding down
Maringo every day. That's a nightmare scenario for this entire neighborhood.
The only way we can avoid a worst-case scenario is to work closely with receptive ;
County planners and commissioners, and thus ultimately affect the development
process. Unfortunately, the three current County Commissioners are notoriously
dismissive of neighborhood issues versus development ihtereste, and they oversee the
Planning Department accordingly. So my wife and I were pleased last week to discover
that the director of the Netghborhood Alliance, a group formed a few years ago to
advocate for neighborhoods-in Spokane County, is running for County Commissioner.
Her name is Bonnie Mager. I had sowed with her on a statewide board concerning
agrialtural issues (before we natifed from farming) about ten years ago, and found her
to be the kind of person we need in pi]bkcc office--a good listener, open to considering
all sides of the issues, honest, and concerned for the Inherent rights of everyone. She's
a weil,+espected wife, mother and grandmother who has been actively engaged as a
citizen attempting to open up county government here for nearty 20 years.
We don't happen to be Democrats, but we strongly supporting Bonnie Mager's
candidacy and hope you will too, especially given this neighborhood's long term need to
have commissioners and county planning staff who win work with us to help avoid
serious degradation of where we live. Bonnie will be a great start.
We have two extra Mager yard signs; if you'd tike one please call us at 9214609. If
you'd hike Mager campaign brochures or contribution envelopes, you can call 235-6737,
or go to the website www.VotaBonniaMager.com.

Dear Senior Planner Kuhta as you are aware I have formally requested that my property
(Parcel #55203.9076 & 55203.9071) be moved inside the urban growth boundary as well as
annexed into the City of Spokane Valley.
I am writing this letter to inform you of some recent developments that have occurred with my
property in Greenacres. Landworks (a division of Tomlinson Black) has been working with the
Spokane County Public works department to install a sewer line for the Meadowview Terrace
development that is being built directly behind my property. Through coordination with Billy
Urhausen at the public works office and the cooperation of Landmark we have came to an
agreement that sewer will be stubbed into my property at the southwest comer. When the
Meadowview Terrace: development starts there will be housing on three sides of my land. The sewer
Stub-in, the close proximity of water, electric as well as adjacent developments and my interest in
selling the land to Gordon Finch Homes snake my property an ideal candidate to be moved into
the urban growth lx)widary.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Yours IruID4__.d,

11707 E. Sprague Ave. - Suite 106
Spokane, Valley, Wa., 99206
Dear Mr. Kuhta:
Pursuant to your recent meeting with Art Elliott, President of Shelter Associates, I am writing to
request a revision of parcels 55305.9011 and 55303.9019 from their current status or Urban
Reserve to Urban Growth. The parcels are described as fellows:
The West 260 feet of the East 360 feet of the South 360 {eet of the Southeast
Quarter of the Southwest Quarter in Section 30, Township 25 North, Range
45 East, W.M., in Spokane County, Washington; and
17he East 100 feet of the South 380 feet of the Southeast Quarter and the %Vest
186.58 feet of the South 380 feet on the Southwest Quarter of the Southeast
Quarter, all in Section 30, Township 25 North, Range 45 East, W.M., in
Spokane County, Washington.
The property is situated on the at 17811 E. 32' Avenue in close proximity to the general
Morning Side Development. I believe the property is suited to higher density development
consistent with the general in-fill policies utilized here in the Valley for the past several years.
The property currently has paved road access, is serviced by Vera Water, Inland Power and
Avista, with gas service at the street. The property currently also is serviced by two water wells.
I envision a development which preserves the existing views of Mica Peak, the foothills and the
pastoral surroundings for each lot and which is also sensitive to environmental concerns and the
rural atmosphere of the area.
Your favorable consideration of this request will be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely
Kim A. McGogney-Linke

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Street Master Plan Update
GOVERNING LEGISLATION:
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Adopted "the drafting of a well-defined Street Master
Plan, with funding options% as a principal 2006 budget goal. Reviewed a draft scope of work at
the December 20, 2005 Council Study Session and authorized staff to issue an RFP for the
selection of a consultant. Reviewed final scope and fee for J-U-B Engineers' at the May 2, 2006
Study Session and approved them on May 9, 2006.
BACKGROUND: Council expressed their desire to develop a well-defined Street Master Plan,
with funding options, that identifies the current condition of the city streets and recommends
appropriate improvements and maintenance that preserve the value and structural integrity of
the local transportation system.
J-U-B Engineers was selected as the most highly qualified consultant for this project.
The scope for this work is divided into three phases. Phase one is the development of
pavement management system that will evaluate the current conditions of the city streets and
determine what steps are needed to maintain them at their current level. Phase two is to assist
in the development of a Six Year Transportation Improvement Plan incorporating the results of
phase one and the other transportation needs of the city. Phase three combines the first two
phases into a single Street Master Plan report-
This presentation is to provide an update on the status of the Street Master Plan work.
OPTIONS: Project status update only.
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Project status update only
BUDGETIFINANCIAL IMPACTS: Project status update only.

The purpose of the City of Spokane Valley
pavement management program is to provide well-
maintained, high quality streets at the lowest
reasonable cost.
Planned levels of maintenance must be carefully
correlated with available funds to achieve the best
possible level of service across the City.

• I f I I' I I
Benefits ofProgra
The benefits of the pavement management program include the following:
Predict the future condition of their pavement for different levels
of funding and show the effects of under-funded road programs.
> An effective tool for the city to both manage street and road
revenues and apply for new revenue sources.
> Put any available new moneys to their most cost-effective use
immediately.
y Meet the requirements of biennial reporting requirements of
RCW 46.68.113 for reporting pavement conditions to the
Washington DOT.

Memorandum
Date: December 12, zoos
To: City Manager Dave Mercier, and Members of Council
CC: Nina Regor, Deputy City Manager
From: Mike Jackson, Parks and Recreation Director
Re: Fiber Internet Service for CentcrPlace
Attached please find a memo from Greg Bingaman, Information Technology Specialist.
regarding internet service at CentcrPlace. As noted by Ring, the cost to provide Internet fiber to
CentcrPlace has continued to drop. At this time, Time Warner has indicated verbally that they
are willing to install the fiber at no installation cast with a monthly recurring cost of $866. This
results in a net increase of $201 (including the $260 in savings which will result from the
elimination ofthe two T1 lines het-ween City Hall and CentcrPlace.)
While it is impossihle to predict with certainty, it appears that the cost of fiber has bottomed out.
As noted by Bing in the attached memo, the additional capacity will allow the City (or third party
providers) to pursue video conferencing from CenterPlace.
If we can lock in the fiber at the above rate, it is my recommendation to proceed. This matter is
of a time sensitive nature as Time Warner predicts a price increase at the first of the year.

Re: Fiber Internet Service for CenterPlace
Upgrade Internet Service for CenterPlace Proposal to support larger
conferences and video telephone confereming
Mice here's a brief overview-
c) Originally Time Warner wanted $30,000 to install the fiber, and then 51,355 per
month for 10 MB fiber Internet connecton, Ivey ,:ire, m v offering no rnstall c,-)st
$886.00 per month for 6 MB connection
Currently we are paying Oneeighty networks at total of $425.00 per month for internet
service; $125.00 for the Private T1 Line and $300 00 for the internet service at 1.5 M8
0 We are also paying 180.00 x2 for a total of $360 00 for two T1's between City Hall and
CenterPlace:
• 1 for phone transport
■ 1 for data transport
o The costs of the two T1's for transport will be eliminated once we finish the fiber install
(before the end of the year). Our re-occurring cost will then be 5100,00 per month (Fiber
agreement with Columbia, $20/mile) for a savings of $260.00 / month.
o So the difference we are talking about it is:
• Currently, 1.5 MB Internet service and 3 T1's = $785.00 / month
• Proposed, 6 MB of internet service and fiber = $986.00 / month
• After all is said and done, net increase cost of $201 to go 4 times as fast which will allow us to start
working on video/teleconferencing
