Mayor Munson said Council would like to discuss wastewater first. (Note: The following agenda items are in the order discussed.] 41. (3) Wastewater issues: Update, Capacitv Proiection; Moratorium, Tarizet Rates - Bruce Rawls With the aid of his PowerPoint, Mx. Rawls explained the plant schedule and history: that a DBO (design- build option) contract and limited notice to proceed was accomplished January 13, 2009; with a full notice to proceed for construction issued February 20, 2009. Mr. Rawls said that during spring 2010 we will need TNIDL (total maximum daily load) for SRF (state revolving funding); that summer 2011 we will need a TMDL/NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) permit for startup testing of the plant; with an early start date for operations anticipated January 2012; and that the completion deadline is June 30, 2012. Mr. Rawls also reviewed effluent options of discharging to Spokane River; water reclamation to the wetlands, to industrial use, or to aquifer recharge; and briefly discussed the delta elimination plan to get a discharge permit into the River, and said he feels we will get the permit; and mentioned the STEP (sewer tank elimination program) might be able to be used as a credit. Mr. Rawls said that he met with representatives from the Department of Ecology (DOE) and that he is optimist that the TMDL river clean-up plan is going in the right direction; that if it gets appealed, it would make Joint City/ Spokane Counry BoCC Meetmg Minutes 02-23-09 Page 1 of 9 Approved by Council: DRAFT scheduling questionable, but that he still feels the outcome would be better then it would have been before. Mr. Rawls mentioned we will be looking at the total water quality picture instead of the water quality right next to the dam; and added that with the industrial use option, which would be In]and Empire Paper, that they use about four million gallons a day, so our effluent may be suitable for their process; but that option will need further evaluation of all the chemicals to make sure it will work; and that the Paper company's seasonal shut downs would also need to be addressed. Regarding an aquifer recharge, Mr. Rawls said that would be a pilot project and if there are no other options available, we would apply for a permit and operate on a five-year interval pilot permit to determine if any technical issues arise; and that there could be some opposition to that option. Concerning the wetlands, he explained that the area in mind is the Saltese area, but he said we need to determine how much water would be put on flats and run down stream into fihc aquifer; adding that every option has issues, and would be expensive and challenging. Mr. Rawl's slides three and four consisted of a chart showing the sewer connection data for the past three years with a breakdown of new construction and the STEP program; and a graph showing the flow in gallons per day. An additional slide on flow projections showed that our contractual capacity is ten million gallons per day, with current unused capacity of 1.5 million gallons daily (mgd); but he said by spring 2015 the projection is to hit 10 mgd; adding that the remaining STEP customers would equal about 1.7 mgd; and he stated that we don't want to get to the point where there is no capacity forcing us not to allow new development. Concerning a sewer moratorium, Mr. Rawls said the County does not have a plan, but moratorium issues are complicated and would have to take into consideration the STEP versus new development, and that the new development would need to take into consideration commercial versus residential, and vested plats versus new plats; adding that once you use the capacity, you can't give it back. Mr. Rawls said that the estimate for remaining capacity is potentially three years past the plant opening. As a side note, Mr. Rawls mentioned that the State Health Department threatened a moratorium in 1993, which was what triggered the STEP program. Chair Mielke said that he feels we will know a lot more by the end of this year; that Jay Manning (of the DOE) wants to issue permits in the first quarter next year and if not; we would need to get together and discuss the issues further. Mr. Rawls mentioned there has been no legal discussion on vesting over the last few years; and Commissioner Richard said it would be important to review vesting and the associated elements concerning providing sewer to vested plats; with Mr. Rawls mentioning that it becomes more complicated as not every vested plat is built on, and things to consider would be ready to build or already built. Mayor Munson asked how long it might take to look at these legal issues, and Attorney Emacio responded that staff would examine these issues over the nexfi few weeks and come back with some preliminary idea. City Manager Mercier asked where is the balance on trying to accelerate connections after STEP versus holding them off, and which would more profit the overall enterprises, taking if off the system versus not accelerating connections and thereby affecting capacity? Mr. Rawls responded that there are many variables including an aggressive water conservation program launching now with rebates, and that time will tell if the 10% overall could mean more available gallons, but that we just don't know how effective it might be, or how many people might implement it, but said that we will spend a substantial amount of funds on this and it will be beneficial in terms of wastewater. Concerning projected monthly rates, Mr. Rawls said that the current single family rate is $35.34; that a previous projection for 2012 with SFR was $38.44; but new estimates are $45 to $50 with discharge into the River; and $50 to $55 with discharge into wetlands; that revenue bond financing in lieu of LTGO (limited tax general obligation) bonds (versus revenue utility bonds which require additional reserves and sometimes have higher rates), adds $0.75 to $1.50 per month; and said there would be numerous policy decisions which would affect the rates. Mr. Rawls said a sensitivity analysis was conducted before the new rates for 2009 were determined; and said that staff will do a new rate study over the next three to four months. Items to take into consideration for rates, Mr. Rawls explained, are placing more of the charge on the connection and less on the monthly rate, or vice-versa, and how fast to ramp in the rate structure. Joint City/ Spokane County BoCC Meeting Minutes 02-23-09 Page 2 of 9 Approved by Council• DRAFT Discussion ensued regarding how to incorporate stich rates into the Valley; the rate analysis; mention from Mayor Munson and Deputy Mayor Denenny that Council would like to contribute more regarding the rate format and the rate analysis and any policy decisions; that the County Commissioners would like Council's input on such; mention by Mr. Rawls that he would bring a consultant to Council to discuss key processes and that there would be another joint session before the rates are taken to a public hearing; with further comment from Mr. Rawls that other communities' rates, such as Airway Heights, would likely be at or above $50.00. Mr. Mercier asked if any financial decisions have been made yet, and Mr. Rawls responded that so far, the idea is to borrow money from the reserves until June, then sell bonds, that they are waiting until June to receive the 2007 annual report in order to get the best possible rating, and that they hope the bond market will be more conducive over the next four to five months; that the hope is to have a rate study completed, if not adopted, before June; although he mentioned that schedule might be too aggressive; but said an idea on how to pay back the indebtedness must be formulated prior to going to the bond companies. Mr. Rawls also stated that all customers would be treated the same regardless of what area they reside in; as developers don't like the different rates for different areas as it leads to selective placement of projects. Chair Mielke mentioned that the DOE is working on legislation to give greater flexibility on how to implement the timelines; that the DOE recognizes they have some inconsistencies and they are looking for flexibility to align more with federal standards to address downstream standards versus state sovereign standards; but added that he is uncertain how such legislation is progressing. City Manager Mercier mentioned the City would appreciate knowing when that fina] conversation would take place regarding a financing decision; and Mr. Farnell mentioned it should occur prior to June; that they are waiting for Mr. Rawls to complete the rate analysis, and feels it could be more likely in May so that financing can be addressed in June. Mr. Rawls said he hopes to have some options on sewer rates mid to late March; then make those modifications and come back in April with the results; then in May wrap-up the discussion about bonds and financing as it amounts to rates; that they are budgeted for ten or twelve different rate scenarios and will direct their consultant to do perhaps six, and said the City may want their staff to sit with County staff as the difference scenarios are explained. Mayor Munson agreed that would be a good approach and asked to be kept appraised. Commissioner Richard said none of the Board members are excited about proposing rate increases to the citizens, that Spokane Valley citizens are also Spokane County citizens, and he would hope to work carefully and cautiously, realizing an increase will be a struggle for many; that no dollar amount has been set yet, but they are committeed to make sure the system is as cost effective as possible; that they are building a sufficient plant with technology driving the costs, adding that care needs to be taken not to send conflicting statements to citizens. Commissioner Mager said everyone needs to be assured we are all in this together, and that Spokane Valley is supportive of the Board moving forward with this plan, realizing that Spokane Valley has a large stake in this as well. Mayor Munson said that Spokane Valley took the position last year to support this plant and that hasn't changed; that Spokane Valley is looking at alternatives just in case this doesn't work, but that Spokane Valley is committed to this plan. Commissioner Mielke said that the new treatment plant really does make a difference in cleaning up the River; and he acknow]edged they are trying to meet standards while protecting the River and aquifer and said he feels they are still on target to do that; to which Mayor Munson agreed and said that at this point it makes sense for Spokane Valley to look at a Plan B even just to re-confirm that perhaps there is no Plan B; and that he hopes to move smoothly and keep the cost down as much as possible. Mr. Rawls mentioned that he is not aware of any other jurisdiction that has done a delta elimination plan; that Liberty Lake was looking at golf courses, but a delta elimination is a big problem for this region and he said without a STEP, we'd have more serious problems; and Commissioner Mielke added that we are uniquely situated because of the work done on delta elimination; that we have conditional approval for a facilities plan. Joint City/ Spokane County BoCC Meeting Minutes 02-23-09 Page 3 of 9 Approved by Council: DRAFT Commissioner Richard voiced his concern about comments that Spokane Valley is looking at alternatives, and he asked if Spokane Valley would like County staff to be engaged in that process, also asking when such analysis is expected to be completed; and stated that prior to the County using bonds or engaging in debt service, he wants to make sure Spokane Valley is with them; as he explained that it appears Spokane Valley is saying they're with the County, but reserve the right not to be; that the County is moving on an expensive and extensive process, and he said he does not want to hear that Spokane Valley has changed its mind in June, as that would be a significant blow. Mayor Munson said Spokane Valley is very aware of the hard work the County has done and will continue to do; and that Spokane Valley had not received any alternative to date, but tllat it makes sense to look at an alternative if one exists; he asked if there is any possibility of avoid a building moratorium; that it doesn't appear that a moratorium would occur at this point, but he said that would be the trigger to have Spokane Valley state it has another plan, adding that the City has an obligation to be ready for tlle worst case scenario; stressing once again that it is becoming more apparent there is only one choice, but Spokane Valley must do due diligence. City Manager Mercier stated that if after the first quarter there is no permit, Spokane Valley would be amenable to come back; that the "A Plan" is with tlle County, but we want something on the shelf if things don't work out; adding that we need to manage remaining capacity. Conversation moved to rates and alternatives, and Chair Mielke mentioned the idea of prioritizing remaining capacity should the County not be where desired by the first quarter. Mr. Mercier asked if there is a working group looking at utilities, and asked if it would make sense to have Spokane Valley employees part of that meeting. Mr. Rawls said the Saltese Project is an ongoing project and staff meets about every quarter or so to discuss industrial re-use and recharge; that there is no "working group" but he will do everything possible to make surc Mr. Mercier and Spokane Valley Public Works Director Kersten is made aware of data concerning this; and he would appreciate City Management advising of who would want to be part of a rate study; adding that he is going on vacation for a few weeks and plans to "hit it hard" upon his return. Mr. Mercier said he would let Mr. Rawls know of which staff to involve. Mayor Munson ended by stating that Spokane Valley needs to be part of the process, and wants to work with the Board of County Commissioners on this issue. #2. (1) Contractual Relations: Obiective: Discuss Pros and Cons of Contractual Relationship in the Future Attorney Emacio distributed a rivo-page handout showing (1) general fund-payments from the City of Spokane Valley, (2) ISD payments from City of Spokane Valley, (3) Road Fund 1 10 Billings to City of Spokane Valley; and page two "Concerns Relative to Contracting." City Manager Mercier distributed a one-page copy of "Valley/County Contract Details Draft." Mr. Emacio explained that his document figures represent what Spokane Valley paid the County since the contracting process, that the figures are broken doNvn into three categories with footnotes identifying why some of the numbers are smaller. Mr. Mercier explained that his handout uses the 2009 budget numbers and is submitted to identify the array of services for which we have interlocal agreements. Mr. Emacio explained that page two of his handout addresses the pros and cons of a contracting relationship, that some aspects are technical and some philosophical; and said the document speak for itself. Regarding methodologies, Mr. Emacio said the issues are dealing with an indirect rate application and an inability to adopt a methodology which ensures full cost recovery; he said that while many contracts have been revised, the Sheriffls contract is still working under the 2003 methodology; that the first issue is, from a County's technical perspective, the need for constant review and revision of inethodologies, and to recognize that such works both ways; and unless there are agreements to review and revise, the only way to gain attention is to terminate a contract, much like the City did with the District Court contract; and that the second issue, Mr. Emacio explained, is the indirect cost analysis; he said that Morgan Koudelka and the County's Administrative Services Department recognized that the administrative cost and indirect costs of the County issuing under the Sheriffs Office and Jail contract are not properly allocating indirect costs, and that the parties are moving to resolve that. Further, Mr. Emacio stated, as a result of the indirect rate issues, Spokane valley opted to continue to pay the Sheriffs Office and the Jail Contracts under the 2007 rate; and he added that Joint City/ Spokane County BoCC Meeting Mmutes 02-23-09 Page 4 of 9 Approved by Council. DRAFT maintenance and operation expenses and salaries have increased; and that increased rate is the new rate; but since Spokane Valley has not resolved that, there is now a shortfall in revenue, and the only option, Mr. Emacio said, is to charge interest on the payments they see as owing and due; adding that this all creates cash flow problems, and puts both parties in awkward positions. The third issue, Mr. Emacio explained is that sometimes it is impossible to re-coup all costs unless people keep exact track of time spent working on every contract; so the figures captured in indirect cost analysis don't really account for actual staff time. Regarding the road maintenance agreement, Mr. Emacio said that the contract specifies the County will receive pay only when rendering those winter snow removal services; so when there is no snow, there are no services; and that there are not a lot of other duties and responsibitities under those circumstances; but that the County still pays the staff when they are really not being as effective as they should be; summarizing that sometimes it is impossible to recapture all costs in providing services to the Valley; that some costs are negligible and some are not. Chair Mielke added that the County is in a unique circumstance, as the statutes only allow recovering costs; and said that he doesn't want to get penalized by the State Auditor for not having sound methodology; that he did not intend to go into specific contract elements today; he said regarding the law enforcement contract, there was a stipulated level of service rather than having the contract expressed in "x" number of officers per 1,000 population; that the population changes over time but that the County is still locked into a hard number; that law enforcement is concerned about appropriate backup and other issues specific to that department, and perhaps in terms of the original contract, it is not flexible; yet the terms state it can be amended by mutual agreement, and without that, the only option is to terminate and take chances to coine back and negotiate terms. Chair Mielke added that a lot of time is spent in contract oversight and number checking on both sides. City Manager Mercier said that the interlocal initiated in 2003 was a new venture for both sides; and a valiant effort was made to capture as much as relevant, but that it is an evolutionary process; that Spokane Valley agrees methodologies need to be reviewed and updated and some has occurred and Spokane Valley now has about ten or eleven model contracts with unified language such as in the indemnification clause; but said he feels constrained in asking for alternatives in payment status without contractual changes, that he appreciates that the County is recapturing some expenses thxough indirect costs such as in the road maintenance contract, all supplies being used were purchased through the County Public Works with a 20% charge for overhead used on the supply side; and a 24% charge for an administrative provision; and said tllat the settle and adjust is a very serious matter and the respective staffs work diligently on that issue. Mr. Mercier continued by explaining that in August 2008, he received a letter from Mr. Farnell regarding cash flow and about the City not paying the 2008 rates; and said we accept that there might be some disagreements that might require time to resolve; that the County should not be liable for the funds and he sees no problem in making payments on it; that the County did not receive the amount cited for 2008 because of the inability to go through the settle and adjust; and stated that Spokane Valley's work suggested that in 2006, Spokane Valley was owed $609,000; so the worries for the two entities are about the same. Mr. Mercier said he indicated to Mr. Farnell last August of preferring not to go into mediation, so the City hired a forensic accountant to have "fresh eyes" to examine this and issue a report; which was issued in December; and that likewise the County contacted the State Auditor's office for addttional review, and said he realizes we are waiting for that outcome. Mr. Mercier said the point is, that this is a serious amount of money, and he is concerned that it has the potential serious compounding affect; so it is important to get a mechanism for 2006 so it doesn't perpetuate in adverse ways in the future; that Spokane Valley does not seek direct subsidy from the County, and if we can identify and agree on relative costs, such as communication and maintenance, we could come to agreement with a demonstrated ability to attack issues and try to come to common understanding. Further, Mr. Mercier explained that Spokane Valley recognizes the ongoing question is whether to continue a contracting relationship, and if not, if sufficient notice could be made so we can make rational efforts to do something different. Additionally, Mr. Mercier said that after Spokane Valley's incorporation, the County had about Joint City/ Spokane County BoCC Meeting Minutes 02-23-09 Page 5 of 9 Approved by Council. DRAFT two million in road funds without sufficient staff to deploy; and both parties agreed we would phase out summer road services and that a transition plan was articulated to move without disadvantaging our mutual constituents. Realizing the County at any time can make a decision on whether to continue a contractual arrangement, Mr. Mercier said it is important that if the County is contemplating termination, that Spokane Valley be part of that prior to a final decision; that he acknowledges there have been some bumps along the way, and several issues have been discussed and identified, along with ways to solve those; and that at each conversation, Spokane Valley raised the issue if the County wants to do something different, we would require a three-year transition, as capital is involved in ordering equipment, which takes considerable time; and although the agreement stipulates six month's notice, and the County extended that, Mr. Mercier said it doesn't give ample time to deal with all that is required, that he respects the County's desire to do something different, but would appreciate phasing this to make it more rationale. Mr. Emacio said that regarding the law enforcement contract, that Spokane Valley is in breach of that contract, as payment is based upon a template with a budget divided by twelve monthly payments with an end of the year settle and adjust; that he asked Spokane Valley to examine the contract; and said that this is why the County is upset as Spokane Valley has not been paying what it should and if there is disagreement on that amount, the monthly amount should not be changed until the matter has becn reconciled; that Spokane County decided to charge interest, but said he had hoped Spokane Valley would pay the monthly amount and the settle and adjust at the appropriate time. Mr. Emacio said he has been with the County for thirty-five years, and never had so many disagreements with so many contracts, as the County has with Spokane Valley; that the County has a lot of agreements with other cities and he said he is not sure what the issue is as others' contracts can be resolved by a phone call. Mr. Emacio further explained that issues beriveen the two entities have been more contentious perhaps because of the amount of the contract; and said he believes we should work closer regarding notification; and added that he was shocked to learn about Spokane Valley terminating the district court contract; and that the County could have been given six month's notice or the issue could have been started earlier so that the County would not have to go to the legislature to reduce the number of judges; and said the entities both need to communicate better. Chair Mielke said that in full disclosure, he and Mayor Munson discussed this about thirty day's prior to termination. City Manager Mercier said that today is the first time he heard about a"breach of contract" and will be looking into that. Mr. Mercier said that notification for termination of court services was an out tluow of some shock and surprise that our Council experienced when the road services contract was suddenly terminated; a consequence of that action was to put Council on alert that there may be other contracts with the County where the County might want to do something else; that this higlilighted the importance of having a"Plan B" so Council ordered an alternatives analysis for the contracts. Mayor Munson added that he sent e-mails to all three Commissioners before the decision, to advise that it was coming and why; and that for all the contracts, an extra effort would be made well iri advance of any debate. Sudden termination of the road maintenance contract, Mr. Mercier continued, put the City in a defensive posture and necessitated having another plan if anything else were not to continue. Regarding the District Court contract, Mr. Mercier said the statutory requirement was that the City had to give notice by February 1 or would not have another opportunity to do so until 2015; and he explained that Deputy City Attorney Driskell talked to members of the bench about this prior to the issue coming before Council for decision, and to the Board o£ County Commissioners, explaining that a very short time span was in operation. Mayor Munson said the City would like an extension of the snow removal contract; that when the original contract was formulated, it allowed for three to four months for a transition plan; but that he wants to make sure our mutual citizens have snow removal that will get the job done; and again asked the Board to reconsider to negotiate on how to work this out. Chair Mielke said that the Board had originally engaged in those contracts and may have sent mixed messages, that perhaps it was discussed as being a transition Joint City/ Spokane County BoCC Meeting Mmutes 02-23-09 Page 6 of 9 Approved by Council• DRAFT issue or a long term basis, but provided there is mutual sharing, there wasn't a problem; but for whatever reason, the summer road piece went away, and an issue for him is the no payment unless the snow falls and the plows are out in the City limits; that the last two years are not good examples as there has been plenty of work; but prior to that, they went through a number of years where there were lower amounts or no snow; and it still cost to have crews ready to go; that there are full-time employees and in reviewing the County's financial issues, the Board must look at the revenue streams and where we are "hanging out a littie;" that if you don't get the winter you think you will, the revenue stream is affected; and said it costs to have a crew ready to go on standby; and there are costs to being ready without compensation Mr. Mercier said he understands the concern and would be happy to discuss this; but said his understanding was, there would not be layoffs as a result of the County not having the summer road piace; adding that he would like an opportunity to better understand. Mayor Munson agreed and said that the City is asking to open negotiations in order to accommodate all needs; and said he does not expect an answer now. Chair Mielke said he felt the employee cllange would occur over time through attrition. Employees were on the County clock on standby, explained Commissioner Richard, who said that County Engineer Bob Brueggeman had indicated it was a net zero gain; but would likely have a slight increase in impact to the budget; that percentage-wise, the inability to perform is greater than the loss; that regarding the transition and who initiated it, he said he still doesn't know all the answers, but recalls having this conversation when he was a candidate in 2005 and 2006; that there were a couple constrains then and there were some decisions based on an inability to serve some summer contract elements; that Spokane Valley felt they were not adequately serving the interest and in 2005 or 2006, it may have been mutually felt that Spokane Valley was inaking the effort to prioritize some elements. Commissioner Richard said this has to be a mutually beneficial relationship, and for the County to remain committed, he doesn't want to compromise levels of service; that he discussed this with each councilmember; and said that those are our employees and the County logo, and it is the county phone that rings; that it is important not to compromise that level of service; that there must be communication and dialogue; and decisions made about the number of inches of snow before deploying plows should be communicated to the Board prior to incorporating such decisions. Regarding the "all or nothing" concept, Commissioner Richard said the Board began to feel it was the desire of Spokane Valley to take on the sweeping, and it was the engineer's opinion it was the beginning of the phasing out; which contemplated all except the snow removal. Further, Commissioner Richard said comments at the City's retreat could have been handled better; that he never heard there may have been some mutual culpability, but continues to hear that Spokane County is not addressing trust; and said we have to address how to talk about our employees in the newspapers, and mentioned criticism about County employees taking off for Christmas Day; he said this is not good and employees don't feel respected; adding that the City has to recognize that what is said has a ripple affect of County employees' morale; and he asked for Spokane Valley's commitment to be careful what they say and do before making a comment in the media about the level of service from County employees. City Manager Mercier said that neither City of Spokane Valley employees nor City officials made derogatory comments about the County crew; that he had heard there were such comments, but performed a media search and found none; so there is some myth in operation; and added that he could not think of anyone saying anything other then compliments about the County's road work; but said that he recognizes that the county will be contacted by the public when they are disgruntled about snow removal; and said that the City has added a hot line for such calls; and said that the City would be willing to put magnetic signs on the equipment when the service is done by Spokane Valley; but there is a difference between pre- and post-incorporation, in that the deployment trigger in the past for was when the valley floor had four or more inches; and in the first three years, the valley floor was plowed only once; but the change discussed was when traffic is functionally impaired, the plows should be deployed, and said staff talked with County staff well in advance of council hearing that, and Mr. Mercier said he apologizes if the word did not reach the Board of County Commissioners, and he urged the County, that then they think there is Joint City/ Spokane County BoCC Meeting Minutes 02-23-09 Page 7 of 9 Approved by Council: DRAFT an incident, to contact the City and the City would try to get to the facts. Commissioner Richard said there were a series of newspaper articles about the decision not to go into residential streets in 2008, but staff telling them to go there; and there are issues such as hiring, letting go, and hiring again independent contractors and of some challenges in the first year of their use; and likewise asked the City if they recognize a potentially damaging issue, to call. Commissioner Richard said he talked about magnetic signs a few years ago, and said that while tllat may have been more tongue-in-check; perhaps it is something to consider. Regarding the law enforcement services, Councilmember Schimmels said he is ashamed of both entities; that this has been going on for three years; and he suggests the County and Spokane Valley staff invoke mediation; and get this issue behind us and move forward. Attorney Emacio said the issue is very complex; and mentioned a need to reduce the methodology to vvriting; but that the County is waiting to get a response from the State Examiner; and then staff can sit down with Spokane Valley's expert and discuss the issue; adding that he feels this needs to be resolved at staff level. Mr. Farnell said that should be coming soon, and that they would share that information with Spokane Valley; that there are many frustrating issues like jail costs, pre-trial issues, how to recover costs; fractionalization of felonies and misdemeanors and how costs are recovered. To clarify, City Attorney Driskell mentioned that the timeline has not been three years, as the 2006 billing period reconciliation didn't start until late 2007. Mr. Mercier added that there is no known purposeful drag time; and Mayor Munson mentioned that fractionalization is a state-wide issue and the Washington Association of Cities is working on coming up with a formula for the good of all entities; and as an aid to communication and to staying informed on the issues, Mr. Mercier said he attends the Board's Tuesday meetings. There was further discussion on the mutual benefits of open communication and cooperation on various issues and practices; sharing the same economic system; sharing the same constituents; how hearing rumors without explanations causes frustration on both sides; about providing ongoing services; the use of public record requests between entities; and of possible councilmanic actions. #3. (2) Metro Road Standards: Obiective: Obtain Commitment of ?urisdictions to nrioritize nroiect completion It was mentioned that this topic can be placed on a future agenda, but briefly the issue concerns private roads inside the urban growth boundary; and connectivity; and of looking at unified standards. Mayor Munson said he sent Commissioner Magcr a position paper last week concerning road standards and connectivity. Mr. Mercier mentioned a working group at SRTC has been addressing this and their last meeting was back in September; and that Ciiy Engineer Hohman is working on our street standards program with the hope of completing that this summer. Mr. Hohman said the City's standards were always similar to the County as they were adopted from the County's standards; and that the City is projecting to stay with those standards; but that the committee left off on the larger issues such as private streets and connectivity and that they just started to get to that last summer. Chair Mielke said if Spokane Valley adopts the road standards, and if they are substantially similar to that original spreadsheet, it would be just a matter of having dialogue on some public policy issues; and he proposed to jointly take a look at that and use the spreadsheet as a template; and work toward joint adoption; and mentioned all this goes back to the joint planning agreements and being able to reference a unified document; and Commissioner Richard added that the goal is to have one documcnt, and if it didn't exactly fit every city, the County could come up with something uniformly acceptable to the municipalities so that tlle County would not have rivelve different road standards. Mayor Munson said he has no problem in working to get that template. Mr. Mercier suggested that once the study is finished, to continue in a regional effort, and if the SRTC group gets re-energized, some of the work could be done in parallel. Chair Mielke said he could assign their staff to work with the City's and to pick up up where SRTC left off; with Mr. Mercier saying he would be happy to share all information. Mr. Hohman stated that the draft wasn't quite ready, but that he would be interested in sharing and moving forward; much as City staff did on the regional stormwater Joint City/ Spokane County BoCC Meeting Minutes 02-23-09 Page 8 of 9 Approved by Council• DRAFT design; a long process but it worked well. Chair Mielke mentioned that perhaps SRTC could "cue this back up" and if Spokane Valley is willing, this issue can be identified on the strategic calendar for 2009; and when it comes up for discussion, it would be beneficial to have staff to help explain the issues. 4. EmerEencv Communications Initiative Update: Obiective: Discuss status of svstem uograde. svecificallv the chanize in sales tax collection proiections Regarding the 1/10 of 1% sales tax to allow an interoperable system to meet FCC mandates, Spokane Police Department Planning Unit Manager Bob Lincoln explained that within two months, he will have a plan that states more precisely what is needed and what will occur, and he distributed copies of his four- page handout on the revenues in the county and historical revenue changes, along with future estimates; projected grant needs, estimated bond service expense, and an organizational chart showing aspects of regional communications; he mentioned that the funds are not needed in 2009 but the cash flow will be needed in 2010; that they have not issued a"Request for Proposals" yet but hope once drafted and released, the bids tivould be very competitive; that they are still looking at some site work but haven't completed the survey of sites; and he mentioned the future bond market is unknown, and regarding sales tax revenue, they actually have more questions then answers now; and he added that from January 17 to February 12, they have probably seen the worst credit for this, and that globally banking has absorbed about 12% so the financial impact and is not even close to what it could be; ending by explaining that they are trying to confirm costs. 5 Outcome Based MeetinQS: Obiective: Discussion of future meetinLys It was mutually agreed that the parties should strive to meet quarterly, and will work toward a goal of having another meeting in May. 6.

The Committee presented its draft proposal to the Board of Directors at the December 2008 'Board Meeting regarding chaages to STA's current fare structure. The Committze is seeking input prior to making a formal recomriiendation to the Board in r4arch. The last time STA increased fares was 2002. The attached Committee Report provides the details oi'the CAC's draft proposal that was presented in December. Significant elements of the draft proposal: - Due to declining sales tax revenue and increased operational costs, we are proposing that STA unplement a fare increase for both Fixed Route and Paratransit. • Fares should be increased in two phases between now and January 2011 to achieve an appropriate user fee relative to the cost of service. This action also brings STA fares more in line with other comparable transit agencies. • Fixed Route base fare would increase from $1.00 to $1.25 in the first phase. Other fare products (Two-hour pass, Day Pass, Monthly Pass,.etc.) would increase in price accordingly. The fare increase in the second phase raises the base fare from S 1.25 to $1.50. • Paratransit base fare should be equal to the Fixed Route base fare. - STA should add one ne«• fare category in order to charge a premium fare for express service. Other fare categories (Adult, Youth, & VIP) remain in place.

In May 2007, the CAC elected to focus on specific issues in order to provide the best value-added to the Board of Ilirectors. The first specific project selected was to evaluate/update Spokane Transit's Tariff Policy. The Committee has used STA staff to provide the necessary resources and support to study this issue in depth. 3 Citizen Advisory Committee 6' 74 Citi: en Advi.ro,r), Comrnittee Fcrre Structur°e P'raject Conrmittee Repor;t - Page 2 What we'`Ve done: Condu~~ed Research ~ ~ariff Policy reviewed > F'hilosophy a.nd Strategic Statements > Recommendeci Chariges to Board > Confirmed Need for Additional Revenue +~~nducte+~ Detailed Process to Upda.te Fare Structure )0- Developed Proposal for Public Input 4 cit~~~n Advisory comm~~~~ ~ ~Iffld The CAC canducted extensive background research.

Pr(ce/Gal. 961ncrease from 2002 2002 $0.81 2007 $2.41 198% 2008 $3.44 3259G As a result of the factors above STA's Farebox Recovery (the percentage of the cost of the senrice that is covered b), user fares) does not meet the objective of 20% for Fixed Route service. The farebox recovery rate of 20% was set based on S7'A staff counsel that this is a general i.ndustry standard. No Farebox Recovery objective is set for Paratransit. Thraugh the 3id Quarter the current Farebot Recovery is: Fixed Route l 7.2°, o Paratransit 1.8% STA has constrained operating costs at a level significantly below other transit agencies in Washington State. Therefore there is little to no ability to increase Farebox Recovery through a reduction in operational costs. Confirmed Need for Additional Revenue (Future Projections) S- Decrease in sales tax revenue has long-term impact Y Increased ridership alone does iiot meet revenue demand ➢ Transit agencies nation-,,,tiride are raising fares to help deal with same challenges 10 CitizenAdvisory Commfttee Declining sales tax revenue is projected to be approximately $48.3M lower than was anticipated in the 2008-2014 Transit Development Plan.

The proposal includes one new fare category, Express Service. This category was added in order to charge an increased fare on STA express service routes. The Committee considered, but did not adopt, Low Income as another additional category. The Committee chose to use other special programs/grants as subsidies rather than establish a new customer category that would be difficult to monitor eligibiliry. This concept will be added to the Tariff Policy Strategic Statements as formal recammendation to the Board. .

'I'he actual impact in 2049 and 2010 is dependent on ridership and cost data at time of implementation. The Committee chose to assume no decrease in ridership due to increased fares. The fare elasticity model has the capability to project revenue based on alternate assumptions where ridership declines due to increased fares. For instance, if ridership decreased by 1% due to increase in fares, then revenue would be approximately $60,000 less ~ than this projection. The impact of the proposed change on revenue, fareboa recovery, and average system fare is listed below: Additional Fare Revenue Phase 1: $1,141,717 Phase 2: $2,272,999 Farebox recovery Phase 1: 19.4% Phase 2: 22.4% Average system fare Phase l: $0.77 Phase 2: $0.89 As depicted in these pie charts, it is unportant to note the reladve impact of fare increases on the total cost of providing tbe service. A fare increase is just one ingredient in solving the challenge to sustaia current service given the future revenue projections and increasing costs. .

BACKGROUND: Bernardo Wills and GGLO developed the City Hall Program document which outlines the function and space requirements for the future City Hall. In order to continue the development of the City Hall project and continue with the work schedule approved by Council I have attached a proposal from Bemardo Will and GGLO for schematic design services for City Hall. This phase will develop the architectural and engineering schernatic design for the City Hall building including a detailed cost estimate. Currently the City has not secured the property for the City Hall project. We will include in the contract a limit of $50,000 in expenditures until such tirne the City has control of the site. Once the site is under City control we will proceed with the remainder of the design services. The total cost of the service will not exceed $377,000.
