PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: No previous action has been taken on allocations to
Outside Agencies for 2005.
BACKGROUND: In the 2004 budget the City allocated $100,000 for Outside Agency Programs.
These dollars came from the City's General fund and should not be confused with tourism
promotion proposals which were funded with room taxes. Shown below are the allocations
awarded in 2004 and requests for funding for 2005:

In an effort to keep the 2005 budget within our means, staff has proposed $100,000 for
Outside Agencies in the preliminary 2005 budget.
Outside Agencies have been invited to the August 17 council meeting to present, in 15
minutes each, their proposals to the City Council.
OPTIONS: 1.) Authorize allocations from the 2005 budget as council deems appropriate;
2.) Discontinue the practice of allocating City funds to Outside Agencies; 3.) Authorize
one -half ($50,000) the funds now, and review the City's financial condition in July of 2005
to determine if additional funds will be distributed.
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: A motion to allocate $100,000 to Outside
Agencies in amounts the council deems appropriate is recommended.
BUDGET /FINANCIAL IMPACTS: This recommendation will cost the City $100,000 in 2005.

COMMISSION
Empowering communities to value youth and youth to value community
ANNUAL REPORT 2004
Now in its nineteenth year of serving the Spokane area by tending to the needs and aspirations of
Spokane County youth, the Chase Youth Commission continues to operate as a joint City /County
-- board committed foTostenng youth development, influencing youth policy, and "empowering
communities to value youth and youth to value their community." The Chase Youth •
Commission actively works to improve the quality of life of our region's citizens, guarding the
trust of the taxpayers and youth who look to the Commission to contribute to youth policy and
development.
Row We Met (and Exceeded) Our Goals
The goals for the 2003 -2004 school year term were met by the collaborative work of the Chase
Youth Commission, the Teen Advisory Council, and the Chase Youth Foundation. While our
accomplishments reflect hard work, hope in the potential of our community, and the joining
together of many individuals and organizations, the need to persist in realizing these goals
continues.
Goal: To initiate and sustain communication between the Chase Youth Conunission and
elected officials.
Our rationale: The Chase Youth Commission is a resource for elected officials, as well as
youth. Established communication channels foster the use of the Youth Commission as a source
of information, expertise, and perspective with regard to youth issues.
Outcomes and Benefits to the Community:
The Youth Issues Forum hosted by the Teen Advisory Council brought together the candidates
for the office of Spokane Mayor and City Council in a forum to discuss their perspectives on a
variety of youth issues. Questions covered: mental health issues, teen poverty, availability of
safe places; employment, and ways to incorporate youth-in the work of the city. Following the
debate, attendees were invited to cast a mock ballot, a practice that inspired several students to
register to vote at the event. Broadcasted repeatedly on City Cable 5, this event reached and
educated voters young and old.

cri
C y;CC 114SJMIS1
The Chase Youth Commission hosted a Mayor's Breakfast with Spokane County mayors, police
and sheriffs to discuss local youth issues and concrete solutions. Participants came away with a
greater sense of collaboration, respect for issues faced by small towns, and understanding of how
strong youth development creates stronger, less reactionary communities. The Commission
hopes to continue and expand this practice as a service to elected officials throughout the school
year.
Youth Commission members also met with Council members from both Spokane and Spokane
Valley to discuss relevant issues and funding. Youth Commission members hope to maintain
more regular one -on -one conversations with our locally elected officials.
Goal: To give youth a stronger, more visible role in the community
Our rationale: One of the primary objectives of the Chase Youth Commission should be to
increase the profile of teens through involvement in community events and initiatives. This
objective reflects the understanding that youth who are given a visible and meaningful role in the
community are more likely to contribute positively, valuing their community in years to come.
Outcomes and Benefits to the Community:
The Chase Youth Commission used the Chase Youth Awards as a platform to educate the
community about the Commission through informational tables, video clips during the
ceremony, and information in the program.
The website, www.spokanespromise.ore was launched to laud the achievements of local youth,
educate the community about the national movement, America's Promise and its local affiliate,
Spokane's Promise, connect organizations and businesses to the work of the Commission, and
highlight opportunities for youth to get involved.
The Commission laid the groundwork for a series of promotional ads for Spokane's Promise
sponsored and aired by the KXLY Broadcast Group.
Goal: To recognize the character and achievements of outstanding youth.
Our Rationale: Dr. Peter :Benson, founder of the Search institute, notes that one of the actions
necessary to create healthy communities is, "to shift the language about youth from a
preoccupation with problems, deficits, and risks to a vocabulary of what we need to promote."
Recognition of positive action breeds positive action and encourages others in the community,
increasing the general quality of life.
Outcomes and Benefits to the Community:
The Chase Youth Awards, organized by the Teen Advisory Council and aided by the work of
regional leaders, recognized over 2,000 children, teens, and their adult advocates. This inspiring
event recognized achievement in leadership, overcoming hardship, community service,
leadership, VERB (it's what you do), creativity and courage. Jim Chase Asset Builder Awards
were also presented. The Awards ceremony highlighted the tenets of A.merica's Promise, re-
2
emphasizing the need for every child to have Opportunities to Serve, Safe Places and Structured
Activities, Caring Adults, A Healthy Start for a Healthy Future, and Marketable Skills.
BOBfest, the annual TAC- sponsored Battle of the Bands competition provided a venue for youth
bands to develop their performance skills and get public exposure. This event also offered a safe
and fun activity for those whom came to enjoy hometown music.
With a 5300 grant from the Northwest Alliance for Responsible Media, the CYC and TAC
educated the media about teen perspectives and the effects of how they are represented in the
media. Both media employees and youth came away with new and helpful information and
commitment to well - rounded coverage of youth issues. This work will reach and inspire all who
consume regional media coverage.
Goal: To lay groundwork for fulfilling the Five Promises with and for Spokane's youth by
mobilizing the community, and to effectively use the resources granted by Spokane's selection
as an America's Promise Demonstration Site.
Our Rationale: The Five Promises concisely and accurately name the factors that lead to
healthy, well - rounded youth, and eventually to productive and successful adults. Our selection
as a Demonstration Site was both an honor and a call to focus on this important work by
engaging all sectors of the community and listening to the leadership of youth.
Outcomes and Benefits to the Community:
In addition to launching the Spokane's Promise Website, educating the community at the Chase
Youth Awards, and teaming with the KXLY Broadcast Group to air features related to
Spokane's Promise, the Chase Youth Commission convened the original delegation that went to
the Presidential Summit in 1997. The group discussed strategy and goals for the Promise effort.
The Commission and Youth department star also identified the Co- Chairs of the effort, Spokane
Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Brian Benzel and State Senator Lisa Brown, and began
assembling a leadership team that will target promise partners and suggest courses of action.
The Commission worked closely with star at America's Promise to formulate action steps, write
grants, and develop outreach tools.
One of the great aspects of the Five Promises is that, when fulfilled, they are as effective at
enriching the lives of those with little money as those with a great deal of money. The Promise
Effort may help to curb Spokane poverty in years to come; the Youth Commission actively
reaches all sectors of Spokane's Youth. The 40 Developmental Assets, and the 5 Promises
derived from them, provide an effective framework for evaluating community support for youth
as well as for garnering essential services for teens. Studies conducted by the Search Institute
clearly indicate that children who possess greater numbers of the 40 Assets are less likely to
engage in illegal activities or make compromising decisions and are more likely to do well in
school and make successful decisions.

Spokane is gaining national attention, having been featured twice in the National America's
Promise bulletin, and praised for its unique approach to addressing youth issues —by working
with, not just for, youth. As a side note, the young woman chosen as Miss Spokane, Rochelle
Rock, took America's Promise as her platform issue, and will be assisting in the Promise effort.
Goal: To develop youth leadership and youths' connections to their community through the
Youth Empowerment Project.
Our Rationale: The Youth Empowerment pairs middle and high school students with
resources, community businesses, and caring adults, while high school youth collect information
and identify and communicate critical needs in their region. The connections forged and work
invested by these students lead to safer neighborhoods. The skills the teenagers gained through
their efforts will prepare them for future study and responsibilities in the workplace.
Outcomes and Benefits to the Community:
AmeriCorps/VISTA members, as well as Youth Department staff, created Youth Empowerment
Zones at University High School East Valley High School in Spokane Valley and continued the
work begun last year by students at Rogers High School. The students surveyed their
classmates to identify needs, mapped community resources, found concrete solutions, and
learned of their own capacity to instigate positive change. Many recent improvements in the
Hitlyard neighborhood can be traced back to the efforts and voices of Youth Empowerment
participants.
Youth Action Teams met at Garry, Shaw, East Valley and North Pines Middle Schools.
Students, many of them identified as "at- risk," participated in a safe, educational, and fun, after -
school community service - oriented activities. Students at Garry Middle School collected
donations for local animal shelters and assembled gift bags for single mothers, while Shaw
students planted flowers and shrubs to beautify their school. Students at North Pines and East
Valley Middle Schools worked to enhance school pride by painting school bathrooms and
corridors.
A Youth Empowerment Toolkit was also developed to encourage replication of this .
neighborhood youth development model in other areas across Spokane County. The Toolkit
contains information to assist adults in understanding the concepts of youth development,
youth/adult partnership, service - learning, and community collaboration.
The presence of the Youth Empowerment Project in Spokane and the participation of youth was
a key aspect of the application that won Spokane the honor of being known as an "All- America
City.
,,
Goal: To responsibly use funds granted by the City of Spokane, Spokane County, City of
Spokane Valley, as well as individual and corporate donations; to seek new sources of funding
to ensure long -term stability.

SrOxAme.s rttoosK
Our Rationale: Funding is always unpredictable, never to be taken for granted, and a sign of
trust to be honored arid well -used.
Outcomes and Benefits to the Community
The Chase Youth Foundation made a significant profit from the sale of America's Promise red
wagon lapel pins and hand -made wooden wagons sold at the Chase Youth Awards, The
Foundation continues to seek out creative funding sources and took the first step towards
establishing an endowment this year.
This was the first year that the new City of Spokane 'Valley made a direct investment in
community youth development through the Chase Youth Commission. The Youth Commission
hopes to grow and enhance this relationship in the future, both financially and in benefits to the
youth of Spokane Valley.
Other Accomplishments:
• The Chase Youth Commission endorsed and staff supported the youth -led project named
LEAP, which was initiated by Mead High School students and dedicated to registering young
people to vote,
• The Chase Youth Foundation worked to find resources for worthy youth projects such as the
Spokane Valley Skate Park, which was able to open this year.
• TNCAN (The bland Northwest Community Access Network), supported by the Chase
Youth Commission, was awarded a grant from the Department of Commerce to create a
virtual online teen center.
• AmeriCorps/VlSTA members worked hard this year to coordinate and help plan a new teen
center to be built near Rogers ,High School, establishing a Hillyard Teen Advisory Council to
work with neighborhood planners on designs and locations_
• The National League of Cities Project to develop Municipal Leadership for Expanded
Learning Opportunities ended, but the Youth Commission will continue to support learning
and youth development opportunities during non- school hours, possibly through future
public discussions and/or policy initiatives_
The Future is Bright!
Objectives for 2004 -2005:
At a joint retreat in May 2004, members of the Chase Youth Commission, Teen Advisory
Council , and Chase Youth Foundation convened to evaluate the past year's challenges and
accomplishments, Together, they agreed to set the following as objectives for this coming year.
Chase Youth Commission:
1, Create a process for participating in public policy, handling issues based on the core
values of the CY; define the various gifts the CYC might contribute to a cause, like
endorsement, advocacy, set policy, and/or convening youth voices; set up a public policy
Sly :i ��Lf 1J
committee with members of the Teen Advisory Council. Put process into action with
) special attention to Spokane's Promise and using the five promises as guiding principles.
2, Identify and inspire youth issues and youth -led projects to create partnerships with
outside groups.
, J
3. Stabilize funding sources by developing a clear formula for understanding what
constitutes a fair portion of money allocation by each government entity and by assisting
the Chase Youth Foundation in building its own funding capacity.
Teen Advisory Council:
1. Pursue a "TAC- to -Go" format that would bring students from all around the county via
charter bus to TAC meetings in rotating locations. This will enable many students to
participate who have been unable to in the past because of lack of transportation or
availability and will expose students to different parts of their Spokane County
community.
2. Maintain the passion and commitment of TAC executives and members; develop teen
leadership for teen centers, advocacy, and Spokane's Promise.
3. Continue staging quality events for the benefit of youth such as the Chase Youth Awards,
BOBfest, and a youth issues forum.
Chase Youth Foundation:
1. Create a vision statement for CYF; clarify its mission.
2. Increase Community visibility— possibly stage a major event with Alma Powell,
highlighting Spokane's Promise.
3. Build a sustainable endowment fund.
The Chase Youth Commission's continued leadership and vision inspire growing momentum
and creative solutions to improve youth development opportunities countywide. Working with
schools, businesses, national organizations, faith communities, and individuals, our region will
benefit from the advocacy, community education, youth /adult partnerships, collaboration, and
youth empowerment offered by the Chase Youth Commission. Doing so will contribute to the
quality of life for all citizens in our region and our joint ability to thrive economically and
culturally.

The role of the Spokane Area EDC is to continuously improve the Spokane economy through a
focused strategy to increase job growth, aggressively pursue business relocations, and facilitate
regional business expansion over the next five to ten years. Only through these actions will we
provide incremental, above median income jobs for residents of our region.
Our newly implemented strategies, supported by our annual budget, focus on creating new jobs, at
higher wage levels, to provide families the opportunity to live and invest in our region. Increased job
1 growth leads directly to increases in taxable retail sales, and investments, which will increase
property tax collections for all public agencies.
]ESC
The EDC has developed a detailed 5 -point Economic Development Agenda. If fully implemented,
the EDC can add significant job growth over a five to ten year period. To achieve this goal, and
soI W. implement the plan, we will need to add four professional positions to generate leads, qualify client
contacts, and build and maintain the relationships with both client companies and real estate
professionals. These efforts will result in business expansion and relocation to our region.
SUITE 3 0 2 There are currently seven unfilled positions at the EDC. The EDC needs an additional $475,000 to
fund just these positions and related programs to begin to create the contacts and deal flow needed
SPOKANE to be successful.
WASHINGTON The EDC must generate some 1500 to 2000 client leads annually to succeed; a trained recruiter
should be expected to generate 400 to 500 leads annually. The recruitment timeline, for a company
locating in any area is typically 3 to 4 years. In business recruitment and retention, we need a team
-0901 of 10 professionals and dedicated support staff to successfully meet these goals. Today, in these
related activities, we have two staff members and one support person.
(509) 624 -9285
Vour investment is critical to the long term success of our region and to its economic vitality. And, at
FAX 009)614-3739 $2.00 per resident, it is a very small investment that can pay huge dividends if we are successful in
working with our key partner organizations to grow our economy and provide incremental, higher
wage, jobs.

To: Mayor, Deputy Mayor and Councilmen, City of Spokane Valley.
If you have a good job, the Spokane region is a great place to live and to raise a family. It will be a
much more desirable place, in the future, if we are able to add opportunity for our residents and their
families to have more employment options, at higher than median pay. We have identified that our
region has some 60,000 people who currently are either unemployed or under - employed. Yet, this
area has a wealth of natural strengths and community resources. We need to build on those
strengths to create a more vibrant economic future.
The City of Spokane Valley, along with the County, Liberty Lake and the City of Spokane, are all key
partners and investors to make this future a reality.
Your commitment to invest $175,000 annually to support our specific staffing requirements is critical
to our success.
I look forward to continuing to work with you and the entire City of Spokane Valley staff as we build

Implementation Guide
The Implementation Guide has been prepared to address how the EDC should re- organize and
reposition to be a " high - performance," trusted agent, for economic development and accomplish
the Five -Point Economic Development Age,ida
The Implementation Initiatives are directly related to the succ of the Five -Point Economic
Development Agenda. 'Ilse five initiatives, as depicted in the overview graphic below and separate
initiatives graphics, result in multiple, parallel strategies for implementation which may appear over-
whelming but are necessary to change the service delivery model in Spokane. The Guide is a
checklist for EDC implementation with specific action tasks, details, samples and forms.

City of Spokane Valley
11707 E. Sprague Ave., Suite 106
Spokane Valley, WA 99206
Dear Mr. Thompson;
Thank you for providing us the opportunity to request funding from the City of Spokane
Valley for the year 2005.
The Spokane Valley Community Center is the first, and currently, only community center
to establish itself in the Spokane Valley. It provides outreach and services to nearly a
third of the population in Spokane County and it serves as the sole source of
comprehensive community services between the Spokane City and the Idaho border.
Serving more than 69,000 people under the umbrella of the Spokane Valley Community
Center, the 9 agencies housed at the center provide a unique and necessary service that
can help our citizens rise out of lives of need or poverty and become productive citizens
of our community. From our Coats for Kids program to our School Supplies program,
from our subsidized apartments to paying utility costs for financially burdened familics,
the Center is addressing the basic financial, emotional and psychological needs of our
community's citizens.
What's unique about the Spokane Valley community Center is that all of this work, and
much more, such as the WIC program, the Valley Food Bank, the health clinic, the
clothing bank, GED classes, and other services, are housed within a centrally located
building, which allows families to tap into these services without having to make time -
consuming and emotion - draining trips all over the county.
The Center is located within a catchment area where approximately 65% of children live
at or below the poverty line. Many of the families served by the Center are compromised
by multiple problems, which, in addition to poverty, include family violence and
chemical dependency. While it is notcworthy that various Faith communities have come
together to provide financial support that ensures the work of the Center is sustained over
time, it is simply no longer possible to expect that the basic costs associated with
emergency assistance be bome solely by individuals and families who come together

..L
weekly to worship. The challenges in this particular section of the community arc simply
too great to assume they can be addressed only by local residents absent the good will
and support of the City of Spokane Valley.
In 2003 the Center spent in excess of $15 1,800 providing services to families in need.
We are requesting that the City of Spokane Valley partially pay for the salary of the
Emergency Assistance Case Manager. The County Development Block Grant has
awarded us S18,000 and we are requesting 514,823 from the City of Spokane Valley for
the remainder of salary and medical benefits.
We appreciate the opportunity to submit this letter for funding. We trust that you and the
city council will have interest in our Center that has so much positive significance to
Valley families.
Sincerely,
/4lt' <<

Request
Spokane Valley Meals on Wheels requests $8,200 to expand our Senior Lunch Program at Spokane
Valley Senior Center from 2 days per week to 5 days per week.
Mission
Spokane Valley Meals on Wheels mission is to prolong the ability of elderly and disabled citizens
of the Spokane Valley to remain living independently in their homes by providing hot. nutritious
meals. Our vision is to insure that all disabled, homebound, or elderly persons in the Spokane
Valley who are in need of nutritious meals receive high quality. nutritious meals. We are best
known for our home - delivered meal program, but equally important is our 2 Senior Lunch
Programs, where those seniors that are able to get out can come together to enjoy both a nutritious
meal and socialize with others.
Need Statement
Spokane Valley Meals on Wheels has operated the Senior Lunch Program at the Spokane Valley
Senior Center since January 2002. Due to funding constraints. we have only been able to operate
the Program 2 days per week. This is not truly enough to have a positive impact on the nutritional
status of the seniors that we serve. The ADA estitnates that nationally 1 in 4 persons over the age of
65 suffer from some level of malnutrition. The malnourished take 40% longer to recover from
illness and surgery with 2 -3 times more complications. Persons that suffer from malnutrition
experience a decrease in energy and endurance. They may also suffer from increased confusion and
memory loss. All of which decreases a persons ability to remain living independently.
'[he U.S. department of Health and I iuman Services Administration on Aging recently performed a
study which found that Senior Lunch Programs such as are operated by Spokane Valley Meals on
Wheels:
P.O. Box 14278 Spokane Valley, WA 99214 Ph. (509) 924-6976 Fax (509)926 - 4606
• Effectively targeted vulnerable populations the majority either lived alone, or
were over 75 years old, and/or were poor or near poor;
• Were highly rated by respondents;
• Increased social opportunities
• Served persons of which 43% were of high nutritional risk and 48% were at
moderate nutritional risk;
In a recent survey conducted by Senior Nutrition of the Spokane Regional Health District, 58% of
the respondents indicated that the Senior Lunch Program was their main meal of the day.
In addition coming together for a meal at the Senior Lunch Program lights social isolation for
seniors. As one gets older, the social circle they developed through a lifetime will change and
sometimes diminish. Parent, siblings, a spouse. and lifetime friends may die, leaving loved ones
alone for many years. A 1998 study of patients with heart disease found that 50% of the patients
who reported feeling very isolated died within tive years. Another 1998 study on women found that
symptoms of depression and lack of social support were associated with more heart attacks, open -
heart surgeries and deaths from cardiovascular disease.
Benefits/Objectives
Our program objectives are to improve the nutrition and ultimately the health of seniors and
disabled persons in the Spokane Valley which in turn will enable them to live independently and in
their own homes longer. The vast majority of seniors state that they would prefer to age in their
own home. Additionally, maintaining someone in their own home rather than moving them to a
higher level of care saves taxpayer dollars. Also, by fighting hunger. we are lessening the cost of
medical care for the elderly. Proper nutrition cuts down on the frequency of Doctor's visits and the
length of hospitalizations.
Impact
Currently. Spokane Valley Senior Center Senior Lunch Program serves an average of 86 meals per
day on the two days per week that the Program is open. In any given month we serve an average of
97 different individuals. We expect to serve a total of over 8,0011 meals in 2004. With support from
the City of Spokane Valley we plan to increase this to over 10.000 meals in 2005.
In addition, when the Spokane Valley Senior Center moves to Center Place at Mirabeau the current
plan is for a Senior Lunch Program to operate 5 days per week. Starting the extended serving days
before the move may smooth the transition for the Senior Center members.
Funding, Request
Our request of $8.200 would allow us to extend days of operation to 5 days per week.

Item: Check all that apply: ❑ consent ❑ old business X new business ❑ public hearing

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Altematives to Incarceration
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: N/A
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: None
BACKGROUND: Jail costs for Spokane Valley and the other local jurisdictions increase each
year. From time to time, the jail population increases to such a point that the jail facility is
unable to accommodate the number of inmates sentenced to jail. In that event, additional
facilities and staff must be provided, at substantially higher rates. These types of overflow
situations occur every year or so at the Spokane County Jail. Staff has done considerable
research in conjunction with two volunteers from Gonzaga University School of Law, April
Anderson and Scott Davis, in order to come up with alternative programs the City could
implement to reduce the number of jail days it has to pay for.
The PowerPoint prepared by Scott and April primarily discusses two such programs, community
service, by which a defendant could participate is some work to better the community in lieu of
spending time in jail, and an electronic monitoring program, where we would look to increase
the type and or scope of what Spokane County already has in place. A third program is briefly
discussed, that being what is referred to as the "24 hour sentencing alternative °. It is for
persons convicted of DUI, and incorporates the alcohol education programs into a 24 hour
program where it counts toward the mandatory one day in jail. It has limited application, but is
still a very successful program.
OPTIONS: Instruct staff to move forward with discussing with neighboring jurisdictions on how
to implement one or more program; or do nothing
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION:
BUDGET /FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Not fully determined at this point, but anticipated to reduce jail
costs.
