ADJOURN Council Agenda October 4,2022 Page 1 of 1 CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY Request for Council Action Meeting Date: October 4, 2022 Department Director Approval: Check all that apply: ❑ consent ❑ old business ❑ new business ❑ public hearing ❑ information ® admin. report ❑ pending legislation ❑ executive session AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Sullivan /Trent Interchange Update GOVERNING LEGISLATION: N/A PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: • January 4, 2022: Administrative Report on amending the 2022-2027 Six Year Transportation Improvement Plan, which included this project. • January 11, 2022: Council passed Resolution 22-001, adopting the amended 2022- 2027 Six Year Transportation Improvement Plan, which included this project. • March 22, 2022: Administrative report providing a project update BACKGROUND: Proiect Background The Sullivan Road/Trent(SR 290) interchange connects rural freight traffic with one of the region's busiest urban corridors. Sullivan Road between 1-90 and SR 290 is home to 9,000 jobs, 85% of which are directly related to freight. Large employers, including the Spokane Industrial Park and Amazon, move their goods and employees via Sullivan Road and Bigelow Gulch within Spokane County. Sullivan Road south of SR 290 is a WSDOT Freight and Goods Transportation System (FGTS) T-2 freight corridor that turns into a T-1 freight corridor south of Euclid Road and continues to its 1-90 connection, carrying over 10 million tons of freight annually. The connection of Bigelow Gulch Road into Sullivan Road will dramatically impact the operations of the SR 290 interchange. Peak hour traffic volumes are expected to increase from 1,400 existing trips to 2,400 future trips once Bigelow Gulch Road improvements are complete. Without reconstruction of the SR 290 interchange, it is expected that both westbound and eastbound ramp intersections will drop from a current Level of Service (LOS) C to LOS F by year 2030. This increase in traffic, and decrease in LOS, will degrade the safety of the existing interchange, slow the movement of rural freight into the urban area, and ultimately restrict economic growth in the region. In 2021, the City selected KPFF Consulting Engineers (KPFF) to evaluate alternative designs for the interchange. KPFF is evaluating four alternatives in terms of cost, right-of-way needs, impacts to existing properties, constructability, safety, and other pertinent project elements, so the City may select the preferred alternative to advance to design. Staff will provide an update of the project status at the council meeting. The conceptual level project cost estimates to reconstruct the interchange range from $35 to $43 million for the four alternatives. Staff will be hosting a public meeting in October and will meet with project stakeholders in October to gather input regarding the alternatives. The City's project budget for the engineering design is shown below: Project Costs Project Funding Preliminary Engineering 60% $ 3,052,000 City Fund 312 $ 500,000 NHFP (federal) $ 1,185,000 SRTC (federal) $ 1,367,500 Total Estimated Costs $ 3 ,052,000 Total Budget $ 3,052,500 OPTIONS: Discussion only. RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Discussion only. BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: $35 to $43 million depending on preferred alternative.

CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY Request for Council Action Meeting Date: October 4, 2022 Department Director Approval: Check all that apply: ❑ consent ❑ old business ❑ new business ❑ public hearing ❑ information ® admin. report ❑ pending legislation ❑ executive session AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Admin Report: Stormwater Utility Program Update GOVERNING LEGISLATION: SVMC 3.80 Storm and Surface Water Utility; SVMC 3.35.10 — Contract Authority PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: • Adoption of current stormwater utility fee at incorporation of the City in 2003 • April 26, 2022 —Administrative Report: Stormwater Comprehensive Plan and Rate Study • May, 3 2022 — Motion Consideration: Stormwater Comprehensive Plan and Rate Study Consultant Contract BACKGROUND: The City Stormwater Utility manages its stormwater program pursuant to the Spokane Valley Municipal Code (SVMC) Chapter 22.150 (Stormwater Management Regulations), the Spokane Regional Stormwater Manual (SRSM), requirements set forth under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Phase II Municipal Stormwater (MS4) Permit, and the Washington Department of Ecology Underground Injection Control (UIC) Program. The Stormwater Utility, and enterprise fund, is funded through the collection of Storm and Surface Utility (Utility) fees from developed parcels located within the City, and the Spokane County Aquifer Protection Area (APA) fee. The Stormwater Utility Fee of $21 per year is assessed uniformly on single family residences, duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes. All other developed property is charged $21 for every 3,160 square feet of measured impervious surface area. The current stormwater rate is expected to generate about $1.9 million in 2022 to City Fund 402. The fee was established when the City incorporated and is in the adopted Master Fee Schedule. The Stormwater Utility Fee has not increased since 2003. The APA fee is imposed on each water meter within the City by water meter size. The APA funds are collected by Spokane County, county-wide and distributed proportionately to local jurisdictions. APA funds must be "expended entirely on stormwater related projects that are designed to protect the aquifer." Without a regional public vote, this fee will sunset in November of 2024. This fee is expected to generate over $450,000 in 2022 to City Fund 403. The City is in the process of developing a Stormwater Utility Plan to establish the long-term goals of the Utility, identify solutions to address flooding and water quality issues, identify strategies necessary to ensure compliance with the MS4 permit and UIC programs, and develop a sustainable financial plan for the utility. The stormwater utility work plan is guiding a Stormwater Utility Rate Study and recommendations for potential stormwater utility rate structures and fees. The goal is to present the recommendations of the rate study and proposed rate revisions to Council in November 2022 for Council adoption and implementation for 2023. OPTIONS: Discussion only RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Discussion only. BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: None at this time. The rate study will recommend an increase to the stormwater fee that if adopted will increase Fund 402.

Minimize personnel costs and overhead by continuing to contract when it makes financial and operational sense to do so. Work to integrate the Business Plan into the annual budget process. Spokane Valley Financial Management 4) Leverage City funds with grant opportunities. 5) Minimize City debt with a pay as you go philosophy. The State of Washington sets the maximum level of allowable debt based on assessed value of property. The City of Spokane Valley currently utilizes only 1 .01 % of its total allowable debt capacity, and more importantly, only 5.06% of non-voted bond capacity. 6) Strive to prioritize spending in the annual budget process and minimize the mid-year addition of projects and appropriations. 12 Spokane jvalley Financial Obiectuves 1 ) Adopt a General Fund Budget with recurring revenues equal to or greater than recurring expenditures. 2) Maintain a minimum General Fund ending fund balance that allows us to meet cash flow needs. This equates to at least 50% of total recurring expenditures. 6 months of general fund operations ;i) If necessary, utilize the Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund #121 ($5. 5 million) to maintain ending It fund balance minimum. 13 Spokane Financial Objectives 'alley 4) Commit to the strategy the Service Level Stabilization Reserve Fund will not be reduced below $3 . 3 million (60% of $5 . 5 million) without City Council approval . "If" Council should deem this necessary, the City will first replenish Fund #121 to at least $3.3 million before any annual General Fund transfers are made to Capital Reserve Fund #312. 5) Property Tax assessment is proposed to be increased by new construction in 2023 - approximately $300 , 000 and the state-allowed 1 % annual adjustment. 6) Grow our economy so our existing tax base can support our basic programs. 14 SpOU ' jValleyx Commitment to Policies Long term financial sustainability. 15 Valley Budget Highlights 2023 Total Revenue Budget Spokane Watley $101 ,117,869 Passthrough Fees,591,000, Debt Service,527,200,1% 1% Grant Proceeds,13,219,062, Property Tax,13,600,800, 13% 13% Stormwater/APA Fees, 2,411,000,2% Total Revenue Budget 101,117,869 I I nterfund Transfers, Less: 17,331,281,17% Interfund Transfers (17,331,281) -\\ 83,786,588 Other Misc.,219,300,0% Sales Tax,34,310,000,34% State Shared Revenues, 2,341,000,2% Service Fees,5,110,726,5% Other Taxes& Fees, 3,889,000,4% Lodging Tax,1,500,000,2% Real Estate Excise 1 7 Tax,3,000,000,3% Utility Tax,857,000,1% Fuel Tax,2,210,500,2% an � 2023 Total Expenditure Budget pok .Valley. $111 ,208,984 Street Fund, $6,842,348 \ Tourism Promotion, $901,000 Stormwater&APA Funds, $3,986,784 Risk Management, $600,000 -------------.._Capital Projects Funds, $35,612,531 Total Expenditure Budget $ 111,208,984 Public Safety, $33,906,183_, Less: \ City-wide Capital Expenditures (30,079,348) Interfund Transfers (17,331,281) Community&Public Works, $5,616,775 $ 63,798,355 Council/Executive/Ops& Admin, $5,269,201 Parks&Recreation, $3,473,250 -- Debt Service, $1,089,550 Economic Development, I $1,576,494 Other Activities, $3,616,000r General Government, $8,249,216 Facilities, $469,652 1 8 Spokane valley We Remain Fiscally found General Fund Recurring Revenues $56 ,450, 500 Difference $3 , 724,277 General Fund Recurring Expenditures 19 Siokane Staffing Levels Employee count is currently scheduled to increase by 2 . 0 FTEs from 103 . 25 in 2022 to 105 . 25 in 2023 .

The end-product legislation of that Committee's four-month process was approved by Council at the May 13, 2003 Council meeting. That historic first manual also included Resolution 03-027, a General Policy Resolution of Core Beliefs, which was amended by Resolution 07-019, which can be found in full in Appendix B on page 47. RCW 35A.12.120 states in part, that "The council shall determine its own rules and order of business and may establish rules for the conduct of council meetings and the maintenance of order. This Manual has undergone several changes since its inception, with some sections remaining static over the years, such as Council meeting time and location, and other sections having been modified to include Internet use, filling Council vacancies, the use of social media, and the option for Councilmembers to view their packet electronically. This Manual is usually reviewed annually and at times amended to recognize additional topics or for clarification as the need arises. This Manual is designed to provide guidance for the City Council and is not intended to be an amendment or substitute for any state statutes, City ordinances, court decisions, or other authority. The rules and policies in this Manual do not constitute land use regulations, official controls, public hearing rules or other substantive rules binding upon or to be used or relied upon by members of the public, and do not amend statutory or other regulatory requirements. Page 4of62 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FOUNDATION: The City of Spokane Valley incorporated March 31, 2003, and is a non-charter code city operating under a Council-Manager plan of government as outlined in chapter 35A.13 RCW Optional Municipal Code for Council-Manager plan of government. Under this form of government, there are two branches of government: legislative and administrative. PURPOSE OF CITY GOVERNMENT: The general purpose of local government is to promote the social, economic, environmental and cultural well-being of the community, to ensure that resources are used efficiently and effectively, to ensure transparency and accountability in decision-making, and to provide the prudent use and stewardship of local community resources. These statements should be considered the lens through which this Manual is intended and through which the actions of the City Council and staff are viewed. The City recognizes that individual rights are critically important in our society, and the City is committed to not infringe upon those rights whenever possible. Good governance should reflect the will of the citizenry and can only occur as a result of an open public process: "All political power is inherent in the people, and governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, and are established to protect and maintain individual rights."(Washington State Constitution Article I, Section 1) OBLIGATIONS: The City acknowledges the importance of complying with the Open Public Meetings Act and the Public Records Act: "The people of this state do not yield their sovereignty to the agencies which serve them.The people,in delegating authority,do not give their public servants the right to decide what is good for the people to know and what is not good for them to know. The people insist on remaining informed so that they may retain control over the instruments they have created." RCW 42.30.010 and 42.56.030. RCW 42.30.010 Open Public Meetings Act:"The legislature finds and declares that all public commissions, boards,councils,committees,subcommittees,departments,divisions,offices,and all other public agencies of this state and subdivisions thereof exist to aid in the conduct of the people's business. It is the intent of this chapter that their actions be taken openly and that their deliberations be conducted openly." Unless as part of an executive session, Councilmembers shall not meet as a quorum of four or more in a non-public meeting.Unless as part of a duly noted Council meeting, a quorum of four or more Councilmembers shall not meet as part of a web conference dealing with City business, nor a conference call, serial communication, social media or even a"straw poll" in executive session. The Open Public Meetings Act does not prohibit a quorum or more of Councilmembers meeting at social gatherings or events provided City issues are not discussed. If Councilmembers are involved in a violation of the Open Public Meetings Act, and are aware that their actions violate the Act, they may be personally liable. If the violation is not intentional,the City may still be liable for attorney's fees.However,elected officials' right to speak freely and gather publicly is protected by the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. RCW 42.56.030 Public Records Act:"This chapter shall be liberally construed and its exemptions narrowly construed to promote this public policy and to assure that the public interest will be fully protected. In the event of conflict between the provisions of this chapter and any other act, the provisions of this chapter shall govern." PRIORITIES: The City's priorities are public safety, pavement preservation, transportation and infrastructure,and economic development.Additional information on priorities and Council goals can be found in each year's budget, as well as the City's annual Business Plan. BASIC TENETS: Council's core values and basic tenets of governing can be found in Resolution 07-019, which is included in its entirety in Appendix B on page 47 of this Manual. BRANCHES OF CITY GOVERNMENT: The Council is the legislative branch of the City government. Council appoints an officer whose title shall be "City Manager" and who shall be the chief executive officer and head of the administrative branch of the City government. "The City Page 5 of 62 Manager shall be responsible to the Council for the proper administration of all affairs of the code city." RCW 35A.13.010. Legislative Branch: City Council. The City Council consists of seven elected officials, each elected to four-year terms. Individual Councilmembers do not have governing power as individuals,but only when meeting as a Council when a quorum (four or more) are present. Council represents the City residents and business owners of the City of Spokane Valley, and is the law-making,policy-making, and budget and spending approval authority of the City government. Council hires, directs, guides and evaluates the performance of the City Manager. The City Manager shall be appointed for an indefinite term and may be removed by a majority vote of the Council(RCW 35A.13.130),or as otherwise agreed to by contract.For functions of the Mayor and Deputy Mayor, see also Chapter 3(B)(1)of this Manual. Some of the duties,responsibilities, and limitations of each Councilmember: • Brings the experience,concerns and knowledge of a typical City resident to City government. • Is cognizant of the needs,wants and concerns of City residents and businesses as a whole. • Contacts residents and businesses to gather feedback and ideas. The resulting information may be shared with staff or other Councilmembers individually, or with fewer than two simultaneously (but not serially),or with all Councilmembers at a Council meeting • Studies internal and external written and documented information related to the government and administration of the City. • Is prohibited from giving City employees directives,or saying anything that could be taken as an attempt to influence the conduct of the employee's job • Gives feedback and ideas regarding City government and administration to the City Manager. • Participates in assigned City and regional committees and all Council meetings. • When acting in the capacity of Councilmember outside of Council meetings, communicates that any personal opinion is the opinion of the individual Councilmember and not that of the collective Council,unless pre-authorized to speak, as Council does not want the public to assume that any individual personal opinion represents that of the entire Council. Councilmember's freedom of speech is protected by the U.S. and Washington State Constitutions. Provided there is no quorum, Councilmembers may work together on City Council-related projects and discuss City business in non-public meetings. No permission is needed, nor is notice required to be given for such gathering. Administrative Branch: The City Manager and City Staff. The City Manager is the City's chief executive officer and head of the administrative branch. The City Manager is an at-will position and reports directly to the Council. The City Manager is directly accountable to the City Council for the execution of the City Council's policy directives, for the administration and management of all City departments,and for the supervision of all members of staff.(See Chapter 3(B)of this Manual and chapter 35A.13.RCW for a description of the role of the City Manager.) Although this summary is provided as an overview of the Governance Manual, reading the entire Manual is strongly encouraged.

The Council always has the option of cancelling such meeting. 2.

Requests for presentations from outside entities or individuals to be placed on a future agenda,will only be permitted if they are considered the official business of the City. Such requests should be submitted to the City Clerk at least 10 days prior to the appropriate Council meeting. The City Clerk shall consult with the City Manager and the Mayor for a determination of whether the matter is an administrative issue, and whether it should be placed on an upcoming Council agenda.Playing of videos,DVD's,PowerPoints,or other electronic presentations shall be pre-screened and pre-approved by the City Manager who shall determine the appropriateness of the material.

Members of the Council shall be addressed as "Councilmember (surname)"unless waived by the Presiding Officer. d. Order of Business.The business of all regular formal meetings of the Council shall be transacted as follows, provided however,that the Presiding Officer may,during a Council meeting,rearrange items on the agenda to conduct Council business more expeditiously, without the necessity of a formal action or motion. However, adding or removing items from the agenda once a meeting has been called to order requires Council to make a motion and vote on approving the "amended agenda." Page 8of62 i. Call to Order by the Presiding Officer ii. Invocation iii. Pledge of Allegiance iv. Roll Call (See Chapter 1,C4b [page 16] for procedure to excuse an absence) v. Approval of Agenda/Amended Agenda. In case of an emergency or an extremely time-sensitive issue which neither the administration nor the entire Council was aware of prior to the distribution of the agenda and accompanying materials, a new item may be introduced by a Councilmember, and suggested as an amended agenda item for the present meeting.If a new item(s)is added,Council shall then consider a motion to approve the amended agenda. ("Three Touch Principle"should be followed whenever possible.) It is preferable that any motion to amend the agenda be made at the onset of the meeting in place of`Approval of Agenda,' recognizing that there will emergencies or other situations when such motion to amend the agenda might need to be made at other times during the meeting. vi. Introduction of Special Guests and Presentations. vii. Councilmember Reports. Council or government-related activities (e.g. synopsis of committee, commission, task force or other board meetings). These verbal reports are intended to be brief, City work-related reports of significance in keeping the Council informed of pertinent policy issues or events stemming from their representation of the City on a regional board, committee, task force or commission, whether as a formal or informal member. Extended reports shall be placed as future agenda items for presentation or submitted in writing as an informational memo. viii. Mayor's Report. Same as `vii'above except given by the Mayor ix. Proclamation. The Mayor will announce the proclamation, announce who has requested this proclamation and after the Mayor or Councilmember reads the proclamation, invites that person or other appropriate person to the podium. The original proclamation will be handed to that appropriate person by the City Clerk or the Mayor, and the individual will be permitted to speak for one or two minutes. x. Public Hearings (See Chapter 4 for procedural details) xi. Public Comments: See Section"C Meeting Rules and Procedures" xii. Consent Agenda. Items which may be placed on the Consent Agenda are those which have been previously discussed by the Council; can be reviewed by a Councilmember without further explanation; are so routine, technical or nonsubstantive in nature that passage without discussion is likely; or are otherwise deemed in the best interest of the City. The proper Council motion on the Consent Agenda is: "I move approval of the Consent Agenda." This motion has the effect of moving to approve all items on the Consent Agenda. Prior to the vote on the motion to approve the Consent Agenda, the Presiding Officer shall inquire if any Councilmember wishes an item to be withdrawn from the Consent Agenda. If any matter is withdrawn,the Presiding Officer shall place the item at an appropriate place on the agenda for the current or a future meeting, or the matter may be addressed immediately after passage of the remaining items on the Consent Agenda. xiii. Unfinished Business. [includes matters that were pending when a previous meeting adjourned,or matters specifically postponed to the present meeting] xiv. New Business [Action items are designated as New Business] Any member of the public who wishes to verbally address the Council on an action item on the current agenda, shall proceed to the podium at the time when comments from the public are invited during the agenda item discussion.The Council may hear such comments before or after initial Council discussion.The Presiding Officer may also invoke a sign-in procedure. If necessary the Presiding Officer in consultation with the City Manager and/or City Attorney shall rule on the appropriateness of verbal public comments as the agenda item is reached. The Presiding Officer may change the order of speakers so that comment is heard in the most logical groupings. xv. Public Comments. See Section"C Meeting Rules and Procedures" xvi. Administrative Reports (includes the Advance Agenda) or tracking of an administrative issue or topic. xvii. Information Only Items These items are generally not discussed or reported. xvii Council Comments xiii=44. City Manager Comments xixvix. Executive Session (as required) (See Chapter 1, section B1c below) Page 9of62 xx- Adjournment. No Council meeting should be permitted to continue beyond approximately 9:00 p.m. without approval of a majority of the Councilmembers present. A new time limit shall be established before taking a Council vote to extend the meeting. When a motion is made to adjourn into Executive Session for a specified period of time, and if the executive session is the last item on a regular agenda, no additional motion is needed to extend the meeting beyond 9:00 p.m. since that is implied as part of the motion to adjourn into Executive Session. In the event that a meeting has not been closed or continued by Council as herein specified,the items not acted on shall be deferred to the next regular Council meeting, unless the Council by a majority vote of members present determines otherwise. 2. Regular Meetings: Study Session Format a. Normally held 1st 3rd and 5th Tuesdays.The purpose of the study session format is to allow Councilmembers to be made aware of impending business and allow informal discussion of issues that might be acted on at a future meeting. Action items aresheuuld normally not be included on a study session agenda, although there will-be times when due to deadlines or other pressing or time sensitive issues, action items must be included. Study sessions shall be in a less formal setting than regular formal meetings.Council may be seated other than at the dais,but shall not discourage public observation. If an item is Unless there are designated as an action item., which permit public comment will be permitted on that motion/item unless a public hearing on the item was previously held. , there shall be no There shall be one general public comment at study sessions for the public to comment on items that relate to the operation of the City although the Council may request staff or other participation in the same manner as a regular formal Council meeting.The City Clerk,under the direction of the City Manager, shall arrange a Council study session agenda for the meeting.A copy of the agenda and accompanying background materials shall be prepared for Councilmembers, the City Manager, appropriate staff and the press, on or before close of business on a Friday preceding a Tuesday Council meeting. Councilmembers have the option of accessing their Council packet via the City's website. Unless notified otherwise,the City Clerk shall prepare a hard copy agenda packet for individual Councilmembers. b. Action Items. Although action items may be included on a study session agenda, it is the preference of Council to keep those instances to a minimum. Because a study session is a recognized meeting according to the "Open Public Meetings Act,"it is permissible for Council to take final action during these meetings.As in the formal format meetings,public comment will be allowed on action items. c. Unscheduledexpected Motions. Because study sessions are usually understood by the public and media as referring to meetings at which Council considers and discusses items and does not take final action or vote,it could be misleading to the public as to the purpose of the meeting if a motion is made unexpectedly. As it is Council's practice to invite public comment after most motions,it would be inappropriate to make a"surprise" motion unless there is a rare special circumstance.Voting or making a motion when neither is included on an agenda does not violate state law,but for consistency sake and to avoid any surprises to the public and media, the practice is discouraged. d. Presiding Officer's Role. The role of the Presiding Officer is to facilitate free flowing discussion without the necessity of each Councilmember being recognized by the Presiding Officer.The Presiding Officer retains the option of assuming the function of the discussion leader at any time in order to maintain decorum and ensure all Councilmembers have the opportunity to be heard, and to keep the discussion properly focused. e. Outside Requests. Outside requests to be included on a Council agenda will only be permitted if they are considered the official business of the City. Such requests should be submitted to the City Clerk at least 10 days prior to the appropriate Council meeting. The City Clerk shall consult with the City Manager and the Mayor for a determination of whether the matter is an administrative issue,and whether it should be placed on an upcoming Council agenda. Playing of videos,DVD's, PowerPoints, or other electronic presentations shall be pre-screened and pre-approved by the City Manager or designee,who shall determine the appropriateness of the material. In the event the presenter has no PowerPoint or other material to submit prior to the meeting, the presenter shall be requested to provide a brief written summary of the topic and items to be discussed.All Page 10 of 62 written materials,including the written summary, shall be submitted to the City Clerk at least 10 days prior to the appropriate Council meeting. f. Forms of Address.Councilmembers and staff have the option of addressing each other on a first name basis during the study session format meetings. g. Order of Business.The business of all study session meetings of the Council shall be transacted as follows, provided, however, that the Presiding Officer may, during a Council meeting, rearrange items on the agenda to conduct Council business more expeditiously,without the necessity of a formal action or motion.However, adding or removing items from the agenda once a meeting has been called to order requires Council to make a motion and vote on approving the "amended agenda." i. Call to Order ii. Roll Call. The City Clerk shall conduct a roll call of Councilmembers(See Chapter 1, Cl page 16 for procedure to excuse an absence.) iii. Approval of Agenda/Amended Agenda. In case of an emergency or an extremely time-sensitive issue which neither the administration nor the entire Council was aware of prior to the distribution of the agenda and accompanying materials, a new item may be introduced by a Councilmember, and suggested as an amended agenda item for the present meeting.If a new item(s)is added, Council shall then consider a motion to approve the amended agenda. ("Three Touch Principle" should be followed whenever possible.) It is preferable that a motion to amend the agenda be made at the onset of the meeting in place of`Approval of Agenda,' recognizing that there will emergencies or other situations when such motion to amend the agenda couldwi-ll be made at other times during the meeting. iv. Proclamation(as needed) v. Public Comments: See Section "C Meeting Rules and Procedures" vi. Action items(as needed) vii.Non-action items Presenter's Role.During the Council study session,the presenter should introduce the subject and give background information, identify the discussion goal, act as facilitator to keep the discussion focused toward the goal, and alert the Presiding Officer when it is appropriate,to schedule the topic for a motion or official direction of the Council. viii. Advance Agenda ix.'. Information Only Items. These items are generally not discussed or reported. vi. Information Only Items These items are generally not discussed or reported. Council CommentsCheck in:The purpose of this item is to allow Councilmembers an opportunity to report on an activity or key issue which either just arose,needs immediate or imminent action,or to simply report on something in connection with their role as a Councilmember, that transpired since the last Council meeting. It is also an opportunity for Councilmembers to bring up topics for clarification or to address other upcoming concerns. City Manager Comments: The purpose of this agenda item is to allow the City Manager the opportunity to brief Council on activities or issues which either just arose, needs immediate or imminent action,or to simply inform Council of items that transpired since the last Council meeting, or will occur before the next Council meeting. xii. Executive Session(as needed) xiiii .Adjourn.No Council meeting should be permitted to continue beyond approximately 9:00 p.m. without approval of a majority of the Councilmembers present. A new time limit shall be established before taking a Council vote to extend the meeting. 3. Regular Meetings: Executive Sessions a. Executive sessions shall be held pursuant to the Open Public Meetings Act, chapter 42.30 RCW. Council may hold an executive session during a regular or special meeting.Before convening in executive session,the Presiding Officer shall ask for a motion from Council to publicly announce the purpose for adjourning into executive session; when the executive session will be concluded; and the likelihood of Council taking action at the close of the executive session and return to open session. Page 11 of 62 i. At the close of the executive session and upon Council's return to chambers,the Presiding Officer will declares Council out of executive session, and asks for the appropriate motion (i.e. an action motion or a motion to adjourn). ii. To protect the best interests of the City, Councilmembers shall keep confidential all verbal and written information provided during executive sessions. Confidentiality also includes information provided to Councilmembers outside of executive sessions when the information is considered exempt from disclosure under the Code of Ethics for Municipal Officers (RCW 42.52) and/or the Public Records Act(RCW 42.56). b. Breach of Confidentiality: if a Councilmember believes that confidential information discussed during an executive session conducted pursuant to RCW 42.30.110 has been disclosed to an outside party: i. The Councilmember shall request the Advance Agenda Committee to schedule an executive session for an upcoming meeting. ii. Upon agreement from Councilmembers at an Advance Agenda Committee meeting, an executive session shall be scheduled pursuant to RCW 42.30.110(f): "To receive and evaluate complaints or charges brought against a public officer or employee.However,upon the request of such officer or employee,a public hearing or a meeting open to the public shall be conducted upon such complaint or charge." iii.The Councilmember(s)alleged to have violated executive session confidentiality shall be permitted to attend the executive session regarding the complaint. iv. At the Advance Agenda Committee's direction, a motion consideration shall be placed on an upcoming Council meeting agenda to direct a third-party investigator to conduct an investigation. v. If the above noted motion is successful, Council will direct staff to contract with a third-party investigator for an on-call agreement to use on an as-needed basis to investigate alleged breaches of executive session confidentiality. vi. Once the investigator has been chosen,the City Manager shall notify the third-party investigator to perform an investigation; the City Manager will provide a general outline of the allegations. vii. Upon completion of the third-party investigator's investigation, staff will deliver a confidential written report to Council in executive session. The Councilmember(s) alleged to have violated executive session confidentiality shall also be permitted to attend this executive session. viii. A motion shall be placed on an upcoming Council meeting agenda to consider the investigator's report,at which time the report shall no longer be considered confidential. a. Each Councilmember who is the subject of the complaint shall have up to five minutes to speak in open session prior to Council's vote on sustaining the investigator's report. b. Should the investigator's report conclude there was no breach of confidentiality, a simple majority of Councilmembers will be necessary to uphold such report. c. Should the investigator's report conclude there was a breach of confidentiality, a simple majority of Councilmembers will be necessary to uphold such report; however, a super majority of Councilmembers will be necessary to vote against such report. c. Penalty for Breach of Confidentiality from Executive Session: i. If a motion is passed to uphold a report of breach of executive session confidentiality, the Mayor may,at a future meeting,bring a motion to remove the Councilmember in breach of confidentiality,from some or all committee assignments,which vote shall be voted on by the whole Council. ii. Any penalty set forth in this Governance Manual is not intended to take the place of any financial or injunctive remedy authorized by state law in either chapters 42.23 or 42.30 RCW. hd. RCW 42.30.110 explains the purpose for holding an executive session, some of which include: i. RCW 42.30.110(1)(b).To consider the selection of a site or the acquisition of real estate by lease or purchase when public knowledge regarding such consideration would cause a likelihood of increased price (pending land acquisition). ii. RCW 42.30.110(1)(g). To evaluate the qualifications of an applicant for public employment or to review the performance of a public employee. [The only employee subject to this evaluation is the Page 12 of 62 position of City Manager.] However, subject to RCW 42.30.140(4) (labor negotiations), discussion by a governing body of salaries, wages, and other conditions of employment to be generally applied within the agency shall occur in a meeting open to the public, and when a governing body elects to take final action hiring, setting the salary of an individual employee or class of employees, or discharging or disciplining an employee, that action shall be taken in a meeting open to the public. [Note: stating that an executive session's purpose is to discuss a"personnel matter" is not sufficient because only certain types of personnel matters are appropriate for discussion in an executive session.] (review qualifications of a public employee) iii. RCW 42.30.110(1)(h). To evaluate the qualifications of a candidate for appointment to elective office. However, any interview of such candidate and final action appointing a candidate to elective office shall be in a meeting open to the public(review qualifications of an elected official). iv. RCW 42.30.110(1)(i). To discuss with legal counsel representing the agency matters relating to agency enforcement actions, or to discuss with legal counsel representing the agency litigation or potential litigation to which the agency,the governing body,or a member acting in an official capacity is, or is likely to become, a party, when public knowledge regarding the discussion is likely to result in an adverse legal or financial consequence to the agency. For purposes of this subsection (1)(i), "potential/pending litigation"means matters protected by Rules of Professional Conduct(RPC) 1.6 or RCW 5.60.060(2)(a)concerning: (a) Litigation that has been specifically threatened to which the agency,the governing body, or a member acting in an official capacity is,or is likely to become, a party; (b) Litigation that the agency reasonably believes may be commenced by or against the agency,the governing body,or a member acting in an official capacity; or (c) Litigation or legal risks of a proposed action or current practice that the agency has identified when public discussion of the litigation or legal risks is likely to result in an adverse legal or financial consequence to the agency. ee. Council may adjourn into executive session even if it is not listed on the meeting agenda. There is a requirement in RCW 35A.12.160 that the public be made aware of the preliminary agendas of meetings in advance of the meeting,but that does not mean that an item that arises after the agenda has been posted cannot be discussed at the meeting, even in executive session. Since final action on the matter would not be taken at the executive session, it would not violate any provision in state law to hold an executive session at a regular Council meeting even if the executive session was not listed on the agenda. [MRSC Index-General Government-Executive sessions.] Although amending the agenda is not required in order to adjourn into executive session,it is a good practice for the Mayor to announce at the beginning of the meeting,that Council will be adjourning into an executive session at the end of the regular meeting. 41. Attendance at Executive Sessions. Attendance shall only be in person. Except in extreme circumstances, there shall be no virtual attendance at an Executive Session. The City Attorney or Deputy City Attorney shall attend executive sessions which address litigation or potential litigation. The question of who may attend an executive session other than the Council,is determined by the City Manager. Page 13 of 62 4. Special Meetings a.Meetings set at days,times,and places other than Tuesdays at 6:00 p.m.in the Spokane Valley City Council Chambers shall be deemed"special meetings,"such as joint meetings with other jurisdictions or entities(Board of County Commissioners,Planning Commissioners),and Council workshops or retreats. b. A special meeting may be called by the Mayor or any three members of the Council. (RCW 35A.13.170, 35A.12.110). Written notice of the special meeting shall be prepared by the City Clerk.The notice shall contain information about the meeting, including date,time, place, and business to be transacted and shall be posted on the City's website and displayed at the main entrance of the meeting location(RCW 42.30.080).The notice shall be delivered to each member of Council at least 24 hours before the time specified for the proposed meeting (RCW 35A.12.110). The noticing regarding such decision to hold a special meeting (made by the Mayor or any three Councilmembers), shall be handled by the City Clerk's Office through the City Manager. c.The notices provided in this section may be dispensed within the circumstances provided by RCW 42.30.080, that is: (a) As to any member who, at or prior to the time the meeting convenes, files with the City Clerk a written waiver of notice;(b)As to any member who was actually present at the meeting at the time it convenes; and(c)In the event a special meeting is called to deal with an emergency involving injury or damage to persons or property or the likelihood of such injury or damage, when time requirements of such notice would make notice impractical and increase the likelihood of such injury or damage; or as otherwise provided by law. d. Agendas shall be drafted in a form submitted by the City Clerk, approved by the City Manager, and distributed in a manner similar to agendas for formal and study session meetings.The processes and rules for agenda content apply to regular formal, study session format,as well as special meetings. e. Special meeting agendas may include action and non-action items. It is the practice of Council to allow time for the public to comment on action items and the "public comment" should be so noted on the agenda. Once the Special Meeting Agenda has been published and distributed, the agenda may be amended provided the amended agenda is distributed to Councilmembers and to the media, and posted on the City's website and at the meeting doorway, at least 24 hours in advance of the special meeting. Final disposition shall not be taken on any other matter at such meeting, which means that the governing body may address other matters not identified in the special meeting notice or agenda, provided `final disposition' regarding such matters is not taken (RCW 42.30.080(3)) Council may not pass a franchise ordinance at a special meeting [RCW 35A.47.040]. f. There have been questions about whether it is necessary to call a special meeting in situations where Councilmembers are invited to attend a public meeting not called by the City as an official Council meeting, and whether it is legal for a quorum of Councilmembers to be present without violating the Open Meeting Act. According to the Washington State Attorney General Opinion 2006, No. 6, the "presence of a quorum of members of a city or county council does not, of itself, cause the Open Public Meetings Act to apply if councilmembers attend a public meeting called by a third party. The gathering of councilmembers would be a `meeting' for purposes of the Act only if the councilmembers take `action' as defined in the Act,such as voting, deliberating,or other official business of the council." g. There are times when several Councilmembers desire to attend a meeting of a City Department, such as a meeting scheduled by the City Engineers to discuss a construction project,or a meeting scheduled through the Finance Depaitnient to hear a report from the State Auditors,or a meeting scheduled by the Parks&Recreation Department to discuss parks or other City business.Because these meetings can at times present questionable concern when it comes to the Open Public Meeting Act,Councilmembers who desire to attend such meetings shall notify the City staff at least two working days prior to the meeting,of their intent to attend, and only the first three Councilmembers who indicate they will be attending any particular meeting, may attend. This is necessary in order not to violate,or perceive to violate the Open Public Meetings Act. h. RCW 42.30.070 states in part: "It shall not be a violation of the requirements of this chapter for a majority of the members of a governing body to travel together or gather for purposes other than a regular or special Page 14 of 62 meeting provided that they take no action as defined in this chapter." [MRSC Research News—Summer,2016] A quorum of Councilmembers traveling together for a scheduled tour would not be in violation of the Open Public Meetings Act provided they do not discuss City business.However,comments and discussion as a result of the tour,shall be done at a regular Council meeting and not during the tour or outside of a regular or special Council meeting. 5. Emergency Meetings: Emergency Council meetings may be called by the Mayor or any two Councilmembers, consistent with the provisions of chapter 42.30 RCW. Meeting time, location and notice requirements do not apply to emergency meetings called for emergency matters as permitted by RCW 42.30.070,42.30.080, and 42.14.075: "If,by reason of fire, flood,earthquake,or other emergency,there is a need for expedited action by a governing body to meet the emergency,the presiding officer of the governing body may provide for a meeting site other than the regular meeting site and the notice requirement of this chapter shall be suspended during such emergency." [RCW 42.30.070] "The notices provided in this section may be dispensed with in the event a special meeting is called to deal with an emergency involving injury or damage to persons or property or the likelihood of such injury or damage,when time requirements of such notice would make notice impractical and increase the likelihood of such injury or damage." [RCW 42.30.080(4)] "Whenever, due to a natural disaster, an attack or an attack is imminent, it becomes imprudent, inexpedient or impossible to conduct the affairs of a political subdivision at a regular or usual place or places, the governing body of the political subdivision may meet at any place within or without the territorial limits of the political subdivision on the call of the presiding official or any two members of the governing body. After any emergency relocation, the affairs of political subdivisions shall be lawfully conducted at such emergency temporary location or locations for the duration of the emergency." [RCW 42.14.075] 6. Pre-Agenda/Advance Agenda Meetings: The City Manager,City Clerk,Mayor and Deputy Mayor generally meet at a fixed weekly time to review the Council agenda of the upcoming meeting,which gives all involved an opportunity to ask questions and gather any additional materials or research needed for the impending meeting. This meeting also serves as an opportune time to discuss the Advance Agenda,which is a planning document to aid in scheduling items on future Council agendas. (see also Agenda Committee under Chapter 4 internal committees) 7. Cancellation of Meetings: State law does not require any specific procedure for canceling an upcoming meeting,however,notice of the cancellation to the public, Councilmembers, and staff should be given by the Clerk in a similar manner that notice is given for a special meeting. The decision to cancel a meeting will be made by the City Manager in consultation with the Mayor and/or Agenda Committee and time permitting, will be noted on the Advance Agenda. The noticing of such decision will be handled by the City Clerk through the City Manager. Upon cancellation of a formal meeting,either the study session immediately before such meeting or the study session immediately after such meeting, shall include an opportunity for general public comment. Page 15 of 62 C. Meeting Rules and Procedures 1.Public Comments This is an opportunity for public comments regarding issues relating to the operation of the City,but which are not otherwise on the agenda for action. If the Presiding Officer is unclear whether comments relate to the operation of the City,the Presiding Officer shall ask how the comments are pertinent for consideration by the Council as business of the City. Speakers may sign in to speak,but it is not required.Under the general public comment opportunities,each speaker may only make comments during one of those opportunities but not both, and comments are limited to three minutes-unless modified by the Presiding Officer. Members of the public shall be prohibited from allocating any of their own speaking time to other members of the public. This time is an opportunity to hear from various members of the public in a limited public forum on issues relating to City business, and not an opportunity for extended comments or dialogue. Although the City Council desires to allow the opportunity for public comment, the business of the City must proceed in an orderly, timely manner. Council meetings are considered a`limited public forum' which means the time,place and manner of speech can be regulated. At any time the Presiding Officer, in the Presiding Officer's sole discretion,may set such reasonable limits as are necessary to prevent disruption or undue delay of other necessary business. The desired total time for public comments shall not exceed 45 minutes; however, that time limit may change at the Mayor's discretion. The Council states that it is not the business of the City to have discussion about any past, current, or future possible/probable election or campaign-related issues during Council meetings. The only exception to this prohibition on discussion of election or campaign-related topics would be if the Council requests that Spokane County place a ballot item on for election. (See page 36,Chapter 2,F Ballot Measures.) a.Verbal Comments: i. Comments shall only be made from the podium microphone, first giving name, city of residence and subject.No comments shall be made from any other location,and anyone making"out of order"comments shall be subject to removal from the meeting. An exception to this prohibition shall be allowed when public comment is only permitted via remote access due to emergency. The public shall be reminded that this is not an opportunity for dialogue or questions and answers, but public comment. When appropriate, staff shall research issues and report back to those making the comment as well as to Council. Public comments are opportunities for speakers to briefly address the entire Council, and those speaking are to address members of Council and not the audience. Speakers should refrain from personal attacks on individual Councilmembers. In order to prevent disruption of the Council meeting,members of the public are asked to refrain from distributing materials to the audience, since Council meetings are not a public forum to address the audience. Since this is an opportunity for public comment relating to City business, in the interest of time and keeping in mind all documents submitted during Council meetings become the property of the City, graphs, charts, posterboards, PowerPoint presentations, or other display materials are not permitted to be displayed or distributed in Council chambers, although written comments and written materials including photographs and petitions may be submitted to Council via the City Clerk. ii. Demonstration, applause or other audience participation before,during or at the conclusion of anyone's public comments is prohibited because it is disruptive. Any disruptive conduct, as determined by the Presiding Officer, shall be cause for removal from the meeting room. Any ruling by the Presiding Officer relative to these subsections on public comments may be overruled by a vote of a majority of Councilmembers present. iii.Council shall not permit public comments if they relate to any matter upon which a quasi-judicial hearing has been required,scheduled,or held. (See page 26 for procedure for taking public comment on legislative matters.) iv. Disruptive public conduct: a. Conduct in any form that interferes with Council's ability to timely conduct the business of the City will not be allowed. If a situation arises where a speaker exceeds the three minutes(unless permitted to continue by the Presiding Officer), is speaking on matters other than City business, or is otherwise disruptive in a manner that interferes with the ability of the Council to conduct the business of the City, Page 16 of 62 the City Clerk will turn off the microphone, and the Mayor will ask the speaker to please stop talking and step away from the podium.In the case of remote meetings,the speaker will be muted. b. If the speaker continues after the first request, the Mayor will ask the speaker once again to stop talking, and will warn the speaker that failure to stop will result in a suspension of their privilege to speak at public comment for 90 days. If the speaker continues, the Mayor will gavel in a five-minute recess. c. Upon return from recess,public comment will start again with a caution from the Mayor that if any other speaker refuses to stop talking after being asked to do so after the three minutes or is otherwise disruptive,the remainder of the public comment for the night will be terminated. d.If necessary in the discretion of the Presiding Officer,and in an attempt to reasonably calm a situation or resolve a conflict,the City Attorney or Deputy City Attorney shall act as a staff liaison with a member of the public who refuses to stop talking and refuses to move away from the podium. b. Written Comments: Citizens have the option of submitting written views,opinions,comments,data, and arguments to Council on any topic and at any time,not just prior to or during public Council meetings.Unless the Mayor asks the Clerk to read written mailed or e-mailed comments, or the citizen reads their own prepared written comments, such comments shall not be read aloud during regular or special Council meetings although they shall be included as part of the public record on the topic and if appropriate, may be publicly acknowledged. Any written comments submitted to Council via the City Clerk shall be distributed to Council by placing copies at each Councilmember's workstation or City desk; or in the case of e-mailed or other electronic comments, shall be forwarded to Council via e-mail, unless such e-mail has already been supplied to members of Council. If individual Councilmembers receive written (including electronic) public comments or materials for the purpose of reading/sharing those materials during Council meetings, those materials should be submitted to the City Clerk prior to the Council meeting so the Clerk can make copies for later distribution to members of Council. c. Electronic Comments: Councilmembers shall avoid accessing any electronic message during Council meetings. Accessing such communication could be construed as receiving public comment without the benefit of having the citizen in person to address their concerns to the entire Council at once. (See also page 17, C8 Internet Use) 2. Council Rules of Order The City Clerk shall serve as the official parliamentarian for all Council meetings,and shall keep a copy of the most current"Robert's Rules of Order" (RONR)in Council Chambers during Council meetings. 3. Quorum At all regular and special meetings of the Council, a majority of the Councilmembers who hold office shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.A lesser number may adjourn from time to time,provided that written notice of said adjournment is posted on the exterior Council Chamber doors pursuant to RCW 42.30.090. Council meetings adjourned under the previous provision shall be considered regular meetings for all purposes. (RCW 35A.13.170, 35A.12.120) 4. Seating Arrangement Councilmembers shall occupy the respective seats in the Council Chamber assigned to them by the Mayor. 5. Attendance a. Unexcused Absences: A Councilmember's responsibility to attend Council meetings should not be taken lightly,nor should a decision to remove a Councilmember for missing meetings.Pursuant to RCW 35A.12.060 "a council position shall become vacant if the councilmember fails to attend three consecutive regular meetings of the council without being excused by the council." As soon as possible after two consecutive unexcused absences,and prior to a third consecutive unexcused absence,the absent Councilmember must request a leave of absence if they desire to remain on the Council. At a third consecutive meeting where a Councilmember is Page 17 of 62 not excused and there has been no request for a leave of absence,the absent Councilmember's office shall be forfeited effective immediately. b.Excused Absences:Members of Council may be excused from meetings with prior notification to the Mayor, City Clerk, or City Manager prior to the meeting, and by stating the reason for the inability to attend. Acceptable absences may include death of a family member, family or personal illness, inclement weather, accident, scheduled vacations, family or personal emergency, City related business,or unusual or unforeseen circumstances. Following or prior to roll call,the Presiding Officer shall inform the Council of the member's absence, and inquire if there is a motion to excuse the member. The motion shall be nondebatable. Upon passage of such motion by a majority of members present,the absent member shall be considered excused and the City Clerk shall make an appropriate notation in the minutes. c. Leave of Absence: A Councilmember whose serious health or physical condition would prevent them from performing the duties of Councilmember may ask to be placed on a leave of absence under the following conditions: i. Such serious health or physical condition must be certified in writing by a medical physician. ii. The request for a leave of absence shall be in writing, and hand-delivered or mailed to the Mayor, City Clerk,or City Manager at least one week prior to the date when such leave would commence. iii. The request for a leave of absence must state the anticipated date the Councilmember will resume their duties. iv. By majority vote of the whole Council,a leave of absence shall be granted as follows: (a)The absence shall not exceed 90 days from the date the motion is passed by Council (b)The absent Councilmember shall retain pay and medical benefits during the leave of absence (c)At the end of the 90-day leave of absence,the absent Councilmember shall either: i. Return to normal Council duties commencing with the first Tuesday following the end of the 90-day leave;or ii. be subject to RCW 35A.12.060 concerning three consecutive absences, beginning with the first Tuesday following the end of the 90-day leave. d. A leave of absence may only be granted twice during a Councilmember's four-year term,with no less than six months between each request. Upon approval of a leave of absence, the absent Councilmember shall not be replaced with a pro-tem Councilmember during the absence. 6. Respect and Decorum It is the duty of the Mayor and each Councilmember to maintain dignity and respect for their offices,City staff and the public. While the Council is in session, Councilmembers shall preserve order and decorum and a Councilmember shall neither by conversation or otherwise,delay or interrupt the proceedings of the Council, nor disrupt or disparage any Councilmember while speaking. Councilmembers and the public shall comply with the directives of the Presiding Officer.Any Councilmember making disruptive,disparaging or impertinent remarks, or unreasonably disturbing the business of the Council shall be asked to cease such disruption. Any other person attending a Council meeting who disrupts the meeting in such a fashion that the Council is impaired in its ability to attend to the business of the City, may be asked to leave, or be removed from the meeting. At any time during any Council meeting,any Councilmember may object to personal affront or other inappropriate comments, by calling for a "point of order." After the Councilmember is recognized by the Presiding Officer and the Councilmember explains their point concerning respect and decorum,or lack thereof, the Presiding Officer shall rule on the remark. If the person making the remark is a Councilmember, the Presiding Officer may ask the Councilmember to cease. If the person making the remark is a member of the public, the Presiding Officer shall determine if the remark is actually disruptive, and whether the remark has impaired the ability of the Council to attend to the business of the City. If so,the Presiding Officer shall seek the removal of that person from the meeting. Continued disruptions may result in a recess or adjournment as set forth in#10 below. 7. Dissents and Protests Any Councilmember shall have the right to express dissent from or protest verbally or in writing,against any motion,ordinance or resolution of the Council and have the reason therefore entered in the minutes. Page 18 of 62 8. Councilmember Meeting Remote Participation a. Remote Council Meetings: In the event of unusual circumstances such as a pandemic or other health or safety emergency where Council meetings would need to be held in such a manner as to protect the health, safety and welfare of Council,staff and citizens,participation in such meetings shall be done remotely provided an option is available for the public to attend through internet or other electronic means. Council, staff and the public must be able to see and hear the meeting proceedings. At least a quorum of councilmembers must be able to participate. b. Telephone or electronic Participation: On occasion,a Councilmember may be unable to physically attend a meeting,but wish to attend via telephone conference call or by other remote means.Provided there is technical availability for the Councilmember to hear the proceedings,be heard by those present,and be able to participate in Council discussion, a Councilmember may request such participation. When practical rRequests to participate in a Council meeting via telephone conference call or by other remote means shoulder be made to the City Manager or Mayor at 24 hoursleast one week in advance,and if time permits, shall be approved by Council by motion prior to such meeting. The Councilmember making the request, may also vote on the motion. More than one Councilmember may request participation for the same meeting,via telephone or other remote means. A request to participate via telephone for the same meeting, would be acceptable provided those Councilmembers would be able to be reached at the same phone number, as the Council Chamber's current system can only accommodate the use of one telephone number per meeting; and whether by telephone or other remote means, such request is appropriate provided that a quorum of Councilmembers would physically attend the meeting. During any meeting that a Councilmember is attending via remote communication,the Mayor or presiding officer shall state for the record at the beginning of such meeting,that a particular Councilmember is attending via remote communication and the reason(s)for such attendance.This does not apply to executive sessions as those sessions must be held in person. 9.Internet Use a. Use of the City's network systems implies Council is aware of and understands that the system is provided to assist in the performance of their roles as Councilmembers, and as such, Councilmembers are obligated to use, conserve and protect electronic information and information technology resources and to preserve and enhance the integrity of those resources which belong to the citizens of Spokane Valley. b. As noted on page 16, Councilmembers shall avoid accessing any electronic message during Council meetings whether by e-mail, text, or other means,. Accessing such communication could be construed as receiving public comment without the benefit of having the citizen in person to address their concerns. Likewise, Councilmembers shall avoid browsing the Internet during Council meetings in order that Council's full attention can be given to the topic at hand. c.Information technology resources are provided for the purpose of conducting official City business.The use of any of the City's information technology resources for campaign or political use is prohibited unless it has been determined by the City Attorney,Washington State Attorney General, or Washington Public Disclosure Commission,that such use is not a violation of RCW 42.17A.555 or is otherwise authorized by law. d. Confidential material shall not be sent via e-mail or text. e. All letters, memoranda, and interactive computer communication (e-mail, text, tweet, etc.) involving Councilmembers, the subject of which relates to the conduct of government or the performance of any governmental function, with specific exceptions stated in the Public Records Act (RCW 42.56) are public records. Copies of such letters,memoranda and interactive computer communication shall not be provided to the public or news media without the member of the public or news media filing a public record request with the City Clerk. With this in mind,texting and tweeting concerning City business is strongly discouraged. f.E-mail communications that are intended to be distributed among all Councilmembers,whether concurrently or serially, shall be considered in light of the Open Public Meetings Act. If the intended purpose of an e-mail is to have a discussion that should be held at an open meeting,the electronic discussion should not occur, and Page 19 of 62 Council discussion should wait until everyone has had ample opportunity to view the message before including such topic(s)on an upcoming agenda. 10. Adjournment Due to Emergency or Disruption In the event of an emergency such as a fire or other natural or catastrophic disaster, threatened violence, or inability to regain or retain good order, the Presiding Officer shall forthwith declare a recess, adjourn, or continue the meeting,and the City Council as well as everyone in the room shall immediately leave the meeting room and if necessary,leave the building. The Presiding Officer may reconvene the meeting when it has been determined by the appropriate safety officials that it is safe to do so. 11. Permission Required to Address the Council Persons other than Councilmembers and staff shall be permitted to address the Council upon recognition and/or introduction by the Presiding Officer or City Manager. 12. Approaching the Dais by Members of the Public Once a Council meeting has been called to order,members of the public are prohibited from stepping between the speaker's podium and the dais, or stepping behind any part of the dais or stepping behind those sections adjacent to the dais. If citizens wish Council to receive materials,those materials should be handed to the City Clerk prior to the meeting or during the public comment section of the agenda, and the Clerk will distribute the materials to members of Council. Council reserves the right to invite anyone forward to the podium to be addressed by Council. 13. Out of Order Requests Occasionally a member of the public may wish to speak on an agenda item but cannot remain until the item is reached on the agenda. During "General Public Open Comments Opportunity From the Public," such person may request permission to speak by explaining the circumstances. The Presiding Officer in his/her sole discretion shall rule on whether to allow the out of order request.Alternatively,the member of the public could also discuss their request with the Mayor prior to or after the meeting. 14. Photographs, Motion Pictures or Videos Requiring Artificial Illumination — Prior Permission Required No overhead projection,photographs,motion pictures,or videos that require the use of floodlights, or similar artificial illumination shall be used by the public at City Council meetings without the prior consent of the Presiding Officer or the City Manager. 15.Placing Items on ai*Future Agenda: a.New Item Council Business: During the Advance Agenda portion of a council agenda, a Councilmember may request to have items placed on a future agenda. Each request shall be treated separately. The City Manager is most familiar with staffs workload and shall determine when the item can be prepared and brought forward to Council, unless the Council wants to discuss the item prior to staffs involvement. The following process shall be used to propose an item for a future Council meeting: i.A Councilmember may propose an item and give a brief explanation of the issue and its importance to the City. ii. Councilmembers may ask clarifying questions. iii.By a show of hands, a consensus of four or more Councilmembers may move the item forward to a future agenda. b. Except for routine items such as those found on most Consent Agendas,requests for items to come before Council shall be routed through the City Manager or come directly from the City Manager as part of the normal course of business. Page 20 of 62 16. Motions and Discussion a. Order of Procedure: i. Member of Council makes a motion by stating: "I move . . ." After the motion is seconded, staff makes their presentation,then the Mayor will ask Council if there are any questions of staff. Once all questions have been addressed, the staff member shall step away from the podium to allow for any public comment. ii. The Mayor will invite public comments. Public comments should be limited to one comment per person per topic and limited to three minutes. The Mayor can remind the public this is time for comments and not discussion; and if the public has questions, those questions shall be addressed by staff at another time outside the meeting. iii.The Mayor will open the floor to Council for discussion. The maker of the motion normally begins the discussion. The discussion must have bearing on whether the pending motion should be adopted (RONR §43); and can be prefaced by a few words of explanation, but must not become a speech (RONR§4).All Council remarks should be addressed through the Mayor. iv. When discussion has ended, the Mayor will re-state the motion or ask the Clerk to re-state the motion. Once the motion is re-stated, the Mayor will call for the vote, which is normally taken by voice. The Mayor or the Clerk will then state whether the motion passed or failed. b. In General: i. Except in rare circumstances, Council motions shall be in the form of an affirmative motion. Affirmative motions are preferred to prevent"approval by default"of a failed negative motion. ii. Unless otherwise stated by the presiding officer, aAgenda items requiringscheduled for Council action shall begin withrequire a motion by a Councilmember prior tobefore discussion unless by majority vote the Council suspends the requirement. If a motion fails, the agenda item shall be considered concluded.However, said item could be reconsidered if done during the same meeting,or through Council majority vote it could be brought back at a later meeting to "rescind an action,"or to "amend something previously adopted."(Mayoral appointments excepted. See Committees for further discussion.) iii. Councilmembers should direct questions to the City Manager or the designated presenter. iv. Main motions are made when no other motion is pending (see chart below). They are debatable and subject to amendment. Since seconding a motion means"let's discuss it,"if there is no second but discussion ensues, the matter of having a second to proceed is moot and the motion can proceed. However,if there is no second and no discussion,the motion does not progress.Note that the motion does not"die for a lack of a second"but it merely does not progress. v. The maker of a motion can withdraw their motion with the approval of the majority of Councilmembers (see notes below table below). The person making the motion is entitled to speak first to the motion.A maker of the motion may vote against the motion but cannot speak against their own motion. vi. No Councilmemberene should be permitted to speak twice to the same issue until all everyone else Councilmembers wishing to speak haves spoken.All remarks shall be directed to the Presiding Officer and shall be courteous in language and deportment (Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised, Article VII, Section 43, Decorum in Debate),keeping in mind it is not the Councilmember,but the measure that is the subject of debate. vii.When an amended motion is on the floor,the vote is taken on whether to adopt the amendment. If adopted,the next vote is on the fully amended motion. viii.Motions should be reserved for items marked on the agenda for action,so as to avoid any surprises for Council, staff and the public.

The consent of the seconder is not needed to withdraw a motion,however,withdrawal of a motion should be done with the approval of a majority of Councilmembers present [Mayor, I request permission to withdraw my motion. The Mayor asks if there is any objection, and if none,the motion is withdrawn. If there is objection,the Mayor will call for a vote.] While a motion is still on the table,no other motion on the same subject is in order.The motion to table enables the assembly to lay the pending question aside temporarily when something else of immediate urgency has arisen. The motion to "Lay on the Table"is out of order if the evident intent is to kill or avoid dealing with a measure. (Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised, 10th Edition) *(Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised states 2/3 vote required.Council direction is to base vote on majority except on matters where 2/3(or majority plus one)is required by state statute. **If the main motion to amend can be amended. ***Call for the Question:if it is felt that debate on a motion on the floor has continued longer than warranted,a member of Council may "call the question." The "call for the question"is a motion to end debate and vote immediately.If this "call for the question"motion is passed by a majority vote,then the vote must be taken on the original debated motion on the floor. Page 22 of 62 17. Voting The votes during all meetings of the Council shall be transacted as follows: a.The Presiding Officer shall first call for a vote from those in favor of the motion,followed by a call for those opposed to the motion, and afterwards shall state whether the motion passed or failed. Unless otherwise provided by statute,ordinance,or resolution,all votes shall be taken by voice or a show of hands.At the request of any Councilmember or the City Clerk,a roll call vote shall be taken by the City Clerk. The order of the roll call vote shall be determined by the City Clerk. b.Unless otherwise provided by statute,ordinance,or resolution,in case of a tie vote on a motion,the motion shall be considered lost. c. Every member who was present when the question was called,shall give his/her vote.If any Councilmember refuses to vote "aye" or "nay," their vote shall be counted as a "nay" vote unless the Councilmember has recused themself due to actual or perceived appearance of a conflict of interest,which shall be so stated prior to the vote at hand.Abstentions are not permitted as abstentions are equivalent to not voting,and the members of the public expect their elected officials to vote on issues. d. The passage of any ordinance,grant or revocation of franchise or license,and any resolution for the payment of money, any approval of warrants, and any resolution for the removal of the City Manager shall require the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the whole membership of the Council (RCW 35A.12.120). Except as provided in"e"below, all other motions or resolutions shall require an affirmative vote of at least a majority of the quorum present. e. Majority Plus One: The passage of any public emergency ordinance (an ordinance that takes effect immediately), expenditures for any calamity,violence of nature,riot, insurrection, or war; and provisions for a lesser emergency, such as a budget amendment(RCW 35A.33.090), shall require the affirmative vote of at least a majority plus one of the whole membership of the Council.(RCW 35A.13.190). 18.Recusal From Discussion and Consideration. a. Situations may arise when a Councilmember should consider whether to recuse themselves from the consideration and decision-making on a particular item. These situations can arise in various ways,including having an interest in a contract being considered by the City, or when a Councilmember has a bias in some fashion regarding an issue before the Council. For additional discussion and explanation,please see Appendix C— Spokane Valley Councilmembers' Statement of Ethics. The overarching goal of the conflict of interest laws is to prevent municipal officers from engaging in self-dealing. Seattle v. State, 100 Wn.2d 232, 246 (1983). [Self-dealing is defined as a situation in which a fiduciary acts in his own best interest in a transaction rather than in the best interest of his clients. A fiduciary is legally obligated to act in the best interest of his clients.A fiduciary is a person to whom property or power is entrusted for the benefit of another.] b. Prohibited acts. There are some conflicts which cannot be waived, and some actions in which Councilmembers shall not engage. RCW 42.23.070 prohibits municipal officers from: i. Using"his or her position to secure special privileges or exemptions for himself,herself,or others." ii. Directly or indirectly giving or receiving or agreeing to receive "any compensation, gift, reward, or gratuity from a source except the employing municipality,for a matter connected with or related to the officer's services as such an officer unless otherwise provided for by law." iii. Accepting employment or engaging in business or professional activity that "the officer might reasonably expect would require or induce him or her by reason of his or her official position to disclose confidential information acquired by reason of his or her official position." iv. Disclosing confidential information"gained by reason of the officer's position,nor may the officer otherwise use such information for his or her personal gain or benefit." c. Conflict of interest — contracts. In contractual matters, Councilmembers are required to avoid directly benefitting from contracts entered into by the City. When a Councilmember is aware that they may benefit from such a contractual relationship,they are required to recuse themselves. Other situations may arise where a Councilmember may indirectly benefit. In these circumstances, the determination of whether a conflict of Page 23 of 62 interest exists such that they should recuse themselves will have to be made by that Councilmember based on facts and circumstances known at the time. d. Bias for or against a proposed action. There will be situations for each Councilmember where,based upon their current or prior work or personal relationships, that Councilmember may not be able to participate in a discussion and decision on a given issue because they likely can't be objective. In such an event, the Councilmember must give due consideration to their potential to be predisposed, and whether they believe they can objectively consider and decide on the issue. If the answer is yes, then the Councilmember may proceed. If this self-analysis is difficult as to whether the Councilmember can be objective, but the determination is that they can, the Councilmember should strongly consider disclosing the nature of the potential bias to the Council, and then announce whether they believe they can or cannot proceed. If the Councilmember does not believe they can be reasonably objective, they should recuse themselves from the discussion and consideration. The purpose for recusal under such circumstances is that the Council wants the public to have the utmost confidence that decisions are made objectively, and that all citizens and businesses will be treated equally and fairly. e. Process and Disclosure: When a Councilmember determines recusal is appropriate, or when it is required by law, the Councilmember shall announce that they need to recuse themselves, explain the factual circumstances, then step off the dais and out of the Council chambers. A staff member will retrieve the Councilmember once that issue is finished being discussed. The determination of whether to recuse oneself from an issue, and then formally recusing, shall occur before any discussion has taken place on that issue to ensure that Councilmember does not participate in the matter in any fashion. f.The following is an example of appropriate language where recusal is warranted: Following careful analysis and consideration, I think it is appropriate for me to recuse myself from any discussion and decision on this matter. I have known the owners of*business for*years,am friends with them, and believe it would be most appropriate for me not to participate in this matter. As such, I will recuse myself and step out of the room. OR Following careful analysis and consideration, I think it is appropriate for me to recuse myself from any discussion and decision on this matter. I own a business that competes directly with the business at issue, and believe it would be most appropriate for me not to participate in this matter. As such, I will recuse myself and step out of the room. g. The following is an example of appropriate language where the Councilmember determines that he/she does not need to recuse themselves from the matter: Following careful analysis and consideration,I think it is appropriate for me to participate in the discussion and decision on this matter. Although I am somewhat familiar with this matter from my prior association with *, I believe I can be objective and unbiased. As such, I will not recuse myself, and will participate with the rest of the Council in the discussion and decision. 19 Ordinances a. Except for unusual circumstances or emergencies,ordinances and resolutions shall customarily be prepared, introduced and proceed in normal fashion with an admin report,then first and second readingaccordance with the "Three Touch Principle." Prior to final passage of all ordinances or resolutions, such documents shall be designated as drafts. b. A Councilmember may, in open session, request the City Manager bring forth an ordinance for a specific purpose. of the Presiding Officer that the Council consider enacting an ordinance for a specific purpose. The Presiding Officer then may assign the proposed ordinance to the administration, a committee, or the Council for consideration. The committee or administration shall report its findings to the Council. The City Manager may propose the drafting of ordinances(RCW 35A.13). Citizens, Boards and Commissions may also propose consideration of ordinances and resolutions. Page 24 of 62 c. Sponsorship. When a Councilmember wishes to assume sponsorship of an ordinance or resolution, once on the agenda,he or she should so announce,make the initial motion and provide an introduction of the measure. d. Ordinances shall normally have two separate readings at separate Council meetings. Unless waived by the City Council at each reading, the title of an ordinance shall be read by the City Clerk prior to its passage. However,if a Councilmember requests that the entire ordinance or certain sections be read,such request shall be granted. Printed copies shall be available upon request to any person attending a Council meeting. e.The provision requiring two separate readings of an ordinance may be waived at any meeting of the Council by a majority vote of all members present. This would require a successful motion to suspend the rules and pass the ordinance on a first reading. f. If a motion to pass an ordinance to a second reading fails, the ordinance shall be considered lost, unless a subsequent motion directs its revision and resubmission to a first reading. g.Any ordinance repealing any portion of the Spokane Valley Municipal Code shall also repeal the respective portions of the underlying ordinance(s). Ordinances repealing earlier ordinances shall not apply to acts, incidents,transactions or decisions occurring before such repeal. h. Council may not pass a franchise ordinance at a special meeting [RCW 35A.47.040]. i. The passage of any ordinance,grant or revocation of franchise or license shall require the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the whole membership of the Council. [RCW 35A.13.170]. j. The passage of any public emergency ordinance (an ordinance that takes effect immediately), expenditures for any calamity,violence of nature,riot,insurrection,or war; and provisions for a lesser emergency, such as a budget amendment(RCW 35A.33.090'), shall require the affirmative vote of at least a majority plus one of the whole membership of the Council.(RCW 35A.13.190). k. Occasionally, an ordinance will be on an agenda the same night as a public hearing on the same topic, such as a public hearing on a budget, amended budget, proposed tax, or moratorium, and an ordinance approving that item.When that occurs,after the public hearing has been closed and Council moves to the ordinance action item,public comment shall not be taken on the ordinance since it was just taken as part of the public hearing process.Public comment will also not be taken during the ordinance's second reading at a subsequent Council meeting. This procedure will also be used if a public hearing on a specific issue is held before the Planning Commission; so that when the resulting ordinance comes before Council,public comment will not be taken on either the first or the second reading. 20. Resolutions a.A resolution may be approved on the same day it is introduced. While it is not necessary to have the title of a resolution read aloud, Council may ask the City clerk to read the resolution title in order invoke the two reading procedures described above to facilitate public understanding and/or comment on the resolution. If Council invokes the two reading procedures, a A Councilmember may request that the entire resolution or certain sections be read, and such request shall be granted and the City Clerk shall read as requested. Printed copies shall be made available upon request to any person attending a Council meeting. b. The passage of any resolution for the payment of money, any approval of warrants, and any resolution for the removal of the City Manager shall require the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the whole membership of the Council. c. Occasionally, a resolution will be on an agenda the same night as a public hearing on the same topic, such as a public hearing on an amended Transportation Improvement Program, and a Resolution approving that amendment. When that occurs, after the public hearing has been closed and Council moves to the resolution action item,public comment shall not be taken on the resolution since it was just taken as part of the public Page 25 of 62 hearing process. This procedure will also be used if a public hearing on a specific issue is held before the Planning Commission,which would result in a resolution for Council consideration. 21. Community Recognition Program: a. In an effort to acknowledge outstanding citizens,businesses and organizations who have made a significant contribution,or have had or continue to have, a positive impact on the citizens of our community,the Council has implemented a Community Recognition Program. b.Eligibility: Must be a citizen/resident or an owner/operator of a business within Spokane Valley City limits. City of Spokane Valley elected officials, staff members and their relatives are not eligible for nomination, however,they may submit nominations. There is no limit to the number of nominations one may submit. c. Selection: will be made by the Mayor with confirmation by the Council. If selected,recognition will take place at a City Council meeting and depending upon the nature of the nomination,the honoree will be presented with a proclamation,certificate of appreciation,and/or a key to the City. d. Process: Nominations shall be submitted on a Community Recognition Form, addressed to the City Clerk, and may be made at any time. e. Selection of these recipient(s) will typically be held during a formal format Council meeting, under the Agenda Item of Introduction of Special Guests and Presentations. 22.Proclamations: a. Ceremonial proclamations not associated with the Community Recognition Program. i. These proclamations are not statements of policy but are a means by which the City can recognize an event, group or individual. As part of the ceremonial duties of the Mayor, the Mayor is charged with approval of proclamations at his/her discretion;and reserves the right to decline any proclamation request as well as the right to make exceptions to these guidelines and procedures. Individual Councilmembers will not issue proclamations, and requests for a proclamation should be directed to the Mayor or the City Clerk. ii. Proclamations will be considered for approval which will proclaim certain events or causes when such proclamation positively impacts the community and conveys an affirmative message to Spokane Valley residents.Proclamations will not be considered which are potentially controversial,political or religious in nature unless approved by the majority of Councilmembers. iii. Proclamations can be issued at the discretion of the Mayor, and may be for organizations, individuals,or businesses within or outside Spokane Valley's jurisdiction. b. Procedure for proclamations to be read at a Council Meeting: i. The person making the request need not be a Spokane Valley resident ii. Requests should be made at least four weeks in advance of the scheduled Council meeting iii.The person asking for the proclamation should agree to be in attendance or have someone attend in their stead iv. The City Clerk will inform the requestor whether the proclamation request is approved v. The person making the request shall draft the proclamation and send it to the City Clerk once approval is given vi. The City retains the right to modify and/or edit the proposed proclamation as it sees fit vii. It is the Council's preference to have proclamations read at formal meetings,which are generally held the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays;however,proclamations may be read at Study Sessions due to scheduling conflicts. c. For those instances where proclamations are requested for events other than to be read at an open Council meeting,the same procedure as above shall be followed,but instead of having someone at a Council meeting to officially receive the proclamation, the City Clerk will mail the proclamation to the requestor, or it can be hand-carried by the Councilmember attending the event to read the proclamation. Page 26 of 62 d. Reading of these proclamations will typically take place at a formal format Council meeting, immediately after the Mayor's report,or could take place as the first agenda item on a Study Session. 23. Taxes: Increasing or Imposing New Taxes The Council strongly believes in fiscal restraint, and that increasing the tax burden on its property owners and citizens by increasing or imposing new taxes should be avoided except as a last resort. In addition to complying with all applicable statutory requirements, increasing or imposing new taxes should only be done as follows: a. As requested by the City Council,the City Manager in consultation with the Finance Director,shall notify the City Clerk of Council's desire for a proposed ordinance, and ask the City Attorney to prepare a draft ordinance. b. Within 14 days following notice to the City Clerk, the City Clerk shall publish a notice of public hearing once a week for two consecutive weeks in the official newspaper of the City, stating i. the date, time and place of Council's public hearing ii. the purpose of the hearing: that a tax increase or new tax has been proposed iii. that a copy of the proposed draft ordinance shall be furnished to any City taxpayer who requests it; and iv. that any City taxpayer may appear and provide verbal or written comment for or against the proposed draft ordinance. c. Preceding such public hearing, staff will provide an administrative report to Council describing the financial deficit and need for the increased or new tax; and if Council concurs and after the public hearing,the proposed draft ordinance shall proceed as follows: i. Proceed with a first reading of the proposed draft ordinance (same or different meeting as the public hearing) ii. Second reading of the proposed draft ordinance at a subsequent meeting. d. Approval of increasing or imposing new taxes requires an affirmative vote of a majority plus one of the whole Council. 24.Hearings: [note: See Appendix A for quasi-judicial hearings] a. Purpose i.Held to obtain public input on legislative decisions on matters of policy ii.Are required by state law in such matters as comprehensive plan use plans,or annual budget iii. Do not involve legal rights of specific private parties in a contested setting iv.Affect a wide range of citizens or perhaps the entire jurisdiction v. Decisions reached as a result of these hearings are not second-guessed by the courts, and if challenged,are reviewed only to determine if they are constitutional or violate state law b. Process i. State statutes do not specify how public hearings should be conducted. Because legislative hearings are generally informal,the main concern is to provide an opportunity for all attending members of the public to speak if they desire. Individual comments shall be limited to a specific amount of time as determined by the Presiding Officer , and the public should be advised that comments must relate to the matter at hand. The "ground rules" for the conduct of the hearing may be stated by the Presiding Officer at the beginning of the hearing: a. All public comments shall be made from the speaker's podium, shall be directed to the Mayor and Council,and any individual making comments shall first give their name and city of residence. Speakers may be asked to spell their last name because an official recorded transcript of the public hearing is being made. Page 27 of 62 b. No comments shall be made from any other location, and anyone making "out of order" comments shall be subject to removal from the meeting. c.Unless otherwise determined by the Presiding Officer, all public comments shall be limited to three minutes per speaker and members of the public are not permitted to give any of their own speaking time to other members of the public. This time is an opportunity to hear from various members of the public in a limited public forum, and not an opportunity for extended comments or dialogue. d.At the discretion of the Presiding Officer,members of the public shall only speak once per issue. e There shall be no demonstrations, applause or other audience participation,before, during or at the conclusion of anyone's presentation. Such expressions are disruptive and take time away from the speakers. f. Unless read and/or handed in by the individual speaker during the public hearing, previously received written public comments shall be read by the City Clerk at the pleasure of the Mayor. In the interest of time,the Mayor may limit the reading of such comments to the Clerk reading who the letter or written material is from,and if easily discernible,whether that person is for or against the issue at hand.All written comments become an official part of the record. g. These rules are intended to promote an orderly system of holding a public hearing, to give persons an opportunity to be heard, and to ensure that individuals are not embarrassed by exercising their right of free speech. ii. The Presiding Officer declares that the public hearing on the topic at hand is open, notes the time for such opening,and asks staff to make their presentation. iii.After staff presentations,the Presiding Officer calls for public comments. iv. The Presiding Officer asks if any members of Council have questions of any of the speakers or staff If any Councilmember has questions,the appropriate individual shall be recalled to the podium. v. The Presiding Officer declares the public hearing closed and notes the time for such closing. 25. Reconsideration a. The purpose of reconsidering a vote is to permit change or correction of an erroneous action,or to take into account added information or a changed situation that has developed since the taking of the vote. Any action of the Council,including final action on applications for legislative changes in land use status,shall be subject to a motion to reconsider except: i. any action previously reconsidered; ii.motions to adjourn or motions to suspend the rules; iii. an affirmative vote to lay an item on,or take an item from,the table; iv.previously passed motion to suspend the rules; or v. a vote electing to office one who is present and does not decline. b. Such motion for reconsideration: i. shall be reconsidered during the same Council meeting; ii. shall be called up when no business is pending (no action is pending); iii. if action is pending,the Mayor asks the Clerk to note that the motion to reconsider has been made and shall be taken up when a member calls the motion to reconsider the vote when no other business (action)is pending; iv. shall be made by a member who voted on the prevailing side on the original motion. This means a reconsideration can be moved only by one who voted aye if the motion involved was adopted,or no if the motion was lost. It is permissible for a Councilmember who cannot make such a motion, but believes there are valid reasons for one,to try to persuade someone who voted on the prevailing side, to make such a motion. v. a member who makes this motion should state that he or she voted on the prevailing side; vi.needs a second, and can be seconded by any member; Page 28 of 62 vii.is debatable if the type of motion it reconsiders is debatable; and viii.is not amendable and requires a majority vote to adopt. c. Step 1: A member of Council who voted on the prevailing side makes the motion, such as "I move to reconsider the vote on the resolution relating to holidays. I voted for[or against] the resolution." This motion needs a second,which can be seconded by any Councilmember. d. Step 2: If the motion for reconsideration is adopted,the original motion is then placed before Council as if that motion had not been voted on previously; and Council again takes that motion under discussion,followed by a new vote. e.Any motion for reconsideration of a matter which was the subject of a required public hearing or which is a quasi-judicial matter,may not be discussed or acted upon unless and until the parties or their attorneys and the persons testifying have been given at least five days advance notice of such discussion and/or action. 26. Council Materials a. Council Material: Councilmembers and staff should read the agenda material and ask clarifying questions of the City Manager or other appropriate staff prior to the Council meeting when possible. A good opportunity to do this is at the Advance Agenda meeting. Council recognizes there are times when Councilmembers may wish to bring additional documentation to a meeting on a specific subject,whether that subject is on the agenda or not, in order to share with Council and staff. When possible, the materials should be distributed to Councilmembers and staff prior to the Council meeting, or if distributed during a meeting, Councilmembers should indicate they would like the materials considered for a future meeting, since except in an emergency, Councilmembers would normally not take time at the dais to read material just received. Pre-scheduled materials Council wishes to share as part of the Council packet could also be included on study session agendas under"Council Comments." b.Council Packets: Councilmembers shall personally pick up their agenda packets from their City desk,unless otherwise arranged by the Councilmember or further directed by Council. Councilmembers have the option of accessing their Council packet via the City's website. Unless notified otherwise,the City Clerk shall prepare a hard copy agenda packet for individual Councilmembers. c. Packet Materials: Request for Council Action form (RCA): This is a cover sheet used by staff to introduce an agenda item. It includes the agenda item title, citing of governing legislation associated with the topic, previous Council action taken, and background on the topic. Options for Council consideration are also included, as well as a staff recommended action or motion. The options and recommended action or motion should be viewed as aids to Council in making a motion or taking action, but should not be thought of as obligatory, as Council always has the option of making a motion different from what is included on the form. Generally,by the time an item is ready for a motion,Council has already read,heard,and/or discussed the item at least three times (such as an informational item, an administrative report, and lastly as an action item), and the wording of a motion would not normally be controversial, although it is important to state the motion as a motion,such as"I move to"or"I move that"or other similar language. 27. "Three Touch Principle" d. Decision makers and citizens at all levels of the City should have adequate time to thoroughly consider the issues prior to final decisions. Except in emergency or unusual situations and prior to enacting an action such as an ordinance,resolution,or motion, It is the intent of the Council that the Council and administration shall Council should consider agenda items at least twiceabide by the "Three Touch Principle"whenever possible; —the object of which is to avoid surprises to the City Council, citizens and administration. When unusual circumstances arise which justify a first discussion decision, the person(s) requesting the expedited decision should explain the timing circumstances. These procedural guidelines are designed to avoid"surprises"to the City Council, citizens and administrative personnel. Any request or proposal for adopting or changing public policy, ordinances, resolutions or City Council directives which require a decision of the City Council or administration, should "touch" the decision makers three separate times. This includes verbal or written Page 29 of 62 reports, "information only"agenda items,or any combination thereof. To facilitate the Council's strategic use first touch by issuing an informational memorandum, unless the subject matter is complex in nature. Quasi judicial matters and any subject discussed in executive sessions are excluded from application of the "Three Touch Principle." It is recognized that unexpected circumstances may arise wherein observance of the "Three Touch Principle" is impractical. However, when unusual circumstances arise which justify a "first discussion" decision, the persons requesting the expedited decision should also explain the timing circumstances. This principle excludes staff reports and other general communications not requiring a Council decision. Page 30 of 62 CHAPTER 2 Legislative Process i r _ ;w r i 1, Legislation iistf,i;mgr .0 ... ap ils , Page 31 of 62 A. Election of Officers Procedures for electing officers are as follows: 1. Biennially, at the first meeting of the new Council, the members thereof shall choose a Presiding Officer from their number who shall have the title of Mayor. In addition to the powers conferred upon him/her as Mayor,he/she shall continue to have all the rights,privileges and immunities of a member of the Council.If a permanent vacancy occurs in the office of Mayor, the members of the Council at their next regular meeting shall select a Mayor from their number for the unexpired term. Following the election of the Mayor, election of a Deputy Mayor shall be conducted in the same manner. The term of the Deputy Mayor shall run concurrently with that of the Mayor. (RCW 35A.13.030) There are no term limits for the office of Mayor or Deputy Mayor. 2.The election for Mayor shall be conducted by the City Clerk.The City Clerk shall call for nominations.Each member of the City Council shall be permitted to nominate one person, and a nomination shall not require a second. A nominee who wishes to decline the nomination shall so state at that time. Nominations are then closed.The election for Deputy Mayor shall be conducted by the Mayor,and nominations shall be made in the manner previously described for the election of the Mayor. 3. Except when there is only one nominee, election shall be by written ballot. Each ballot shall contain the name of the Councilmember who cast it. Selection of Mayor and of Deputy Mayor shall each be determined by majority vote of Councilmembers present.The City Clerk shall publicly announce the results of the election. Thereafter,the City Clerk shall record the individual Councilmember's vote in the minutes of the meeting. 4. If the first round of votes results in no majority vote of Councilmembers present,the voting process shall be repeated no more than two more times. During subsequent votes, Councilmembers do not have to vote the same as they did in the previous vote.If after three attempts,Council is unable to agree on a Mayor by majority vote of Councilmembers present, the office of Mayor shall be temporarily filled by an Acting Mayor,which shall be the Councilmember who just previously served as Mayor if that person is still a member of Council, or if the previous Mayor is no longer a Councilmember, then by the Deputy Mayor, or if such person prefers not to serve as Mayor or if that person is no longer a member of Council, the Councilmember with the next highest seniority. The Acting Mayor shall continue in office and exercise such authority as is described in RCW 35A.13 until the members of the Council agree on a Mayor, which shall be determined at the next scheduled Council meeting,at which time the role of Acting Mayor shall cease and terminate. 5.At the next scheduled Council meeting voting for Mayor shall proceed in the same manner as the initial first round of voting from the previous Council meeting, but Councilmembers shall only vote on the Councilmembers who received the highest number of votes. If after three voting attempts, there is still no majority vote of Councilmembers present,the vote shall be determined by whichever Councilmember has the most votes at the third voting attempt. If at that time,there is a two-way tie of Councilmembers receiving the most votes,the tie shall be broken based on the flip of a coin.The City Manager shall flip the coin. If there are more than two Councilmembers tying with the most votes, that tie shall be determined by another means of chance to narrow the Councilmembers down to two,at which time the outcome shall be determined by written ballot. B. Filling Council Vacancies 1. General Process: (Note that public comment shall not be taken during this entire process.) If a vacancy occurs on the City Council,the Council shall follow the procedures outlined in RCW 35A.13.020 and Council's adopted procedure in compliance with RCW 35A.13.020, as well as RCW 42.12.070. The timeline will vary depending on when the process begins. Pursuant to RCW 35A.13.020, City Council has 90 days from the vacancy to appoint a qualified person to the vacant position. If this timeframe is not met,the City's authority in this matter would cease and the Spokane County Board of Commissioners would appoint a qualified person to fill the vacancy. In order to be qualified to run for Spokane Valley City Council, or hold such position, a person must be [RCW 42.04.020] a citizen of the United States, 18 years of age or older,a resident of the City of Spokane Valley for a year or more preceding his or her election, a registered voter in the City of Spokane Valley at the time of filing the declaration of candidacy and at the time of filing the declaration of candidacy Page 32 of 62 if the candidate had ever been convicted of a felony, they must no longer be under the authority of the Department of Corrections,or currently incarcerated for a felony. Pursuant to RCW 42.12,remaining members of Council shall appoint a qualified person to fill the vacancy as an interim position who will serve from the date of appointment until the person elected in the November odd- numbered year general election takes office,which is the date the election results are certified,normally around the 26th of November. (See also 35A.12.040) Immediately upon the election being certified, that just-elected person will take the oath of office,take their position as a member of Council, and complete the remainder of the unexpired term. a. Procedure for Filling a Council Vacancy, Timeline/Procedure-Publication: The City Clerk shall publish the vacancy announcement inviting citizens of the City who are interested and qualified to sit as a Councilmember, to apply on an application form provided by the City (see Appendix E for application). Qualifications to sit as a Councilmember are set forth in RCW 35A.13.020,which refers to RCW 35A.12.030: (1)must be a registered voter of the city at the time of filing his or her declaration of candidacy; (2)has been a resident of the city for a period of at least one year next preceding his or her election.Additional qualifications include those stated above under#1 General Process,and that Councilmembers shall not hold any other office or employment within the Spokane Valley City government[RCW 35A.12.030].In order to avoid any real or perceived conflict of interest, no member of Council's immediate family may be currently employed by the City of Spokane Valley since employment is considered a contractual matter, and a councilmember would have a prohibited interest in a contract between a family member who is an employee of the city, and the city. (See Appendix E Definitions for description of immediate family.)If possible,the vacancy announcement shall be published for three consecutive weeks. b. The City Clerk shall establish the deadline to receive applications, for example, no later than 4:00 p.m. on a certain date. c. RCW 42.30.110(1)(h), set a special meeting with an executive session beginning at 5:00 p.m. Council shall meet and adjourn to executive session to review and discuss all of the applications. After the review and discussion, Council shall return to Council Chambers and the Special Meeting shall be adjourned. d. Hold a regular 6:00 p.m. meeting, same evening as above special meeting. Pursuant to RCW 42.30.110(1)(h),Council shall meet in open session and part of this agenda shall include selection of applicants to interview. Selection shall be by nomination and second. A vote shall be taken and candidates receiving a majority vote of those councilmembers present, shall be interviewed. Immediately after this Council meeting or as soon as practicable,the Clerk shall send a list of potential questions to all those to be interviewed. e. Schedule the conducting of the interviews for an upcoming Council meeting. Pursuant to RCW 42.30.110(1)(h),the interviews shall be conducted during an open Council meeting.Each interview shall be a maximum of 30 minutes. f. Schedule a special 5:00 p.m.meeting with an executive session. Pursuant to RCW 42.30.110(1)(h), Council shall meet and adjourn to executive session(closed session)to discuss applicants.After the discussion, the Special Meeting shall be adjourned as usual. g. Hold a regular 6:00 p.m. meeting, same evening as "f' above special meeting. Pursuant to RCW 42.30.110(1)(h), Council shall meet in open session; and the last action item of that agenda will include a vote to fill the vacancy.Upon selection of the new Councilmember,that person shall be sworn in by the City Clerk, and take their seat at the dais. 2.Nomination Options for Conducting Interviews: a. After holding an executive session to review applications, during a subsequent open session, any Councilmember may i.nominate an applicant to be interviewed ii.the nomination must be seconded iii. Councilmembers may make more than one nomination,but only one at a time iv.the Mayor shall ask if there are further nominations v. if no further nominations,the Mayor shall close the nominations vi.votes shall be taken on each applicant in the order of nomination vii.votes shall be by raised hand Page 33 of 62 viii. applicants receiving a majority of votes of those Councilmembers present,shall be interviewed ix. once all voting has taken place, the City Clerk shall summarize which applicants shall be interviewed based on the voting outcome.As soon as possible after the Council meeting,the City Clerk shall notify each applicant to inform them if they will or will not be interviewed; notify those to be interviewed of the date and time for their interview,and send each person to be interviewed,the list of possible interview questions; or x. Instead of the above nomination process, after holding an executive session to review applications, Council may choose to interview all applicants b. The length of the interview shall be determined based upon the number of applicants and interviews shall be done in last-name alphabetical order. The City Clerk shall notify all applicants of the date, time and procedure for their interview. To keep the process as fair as possible, on the date of the interview, applicants not yet interviewed shall be asked to wait in a waiting area outside the Council Chambers and away from viewing or hearing the meeting's proceedings. c.If during open session,Council has nominated only one person to interview,or in the case of more than one vacancy,one person per vacancy,Council may forego the interview process and move to make the appropriate appointment. 3.Interview Questions/Process: During the interview, each Councilmember may ask each candidate a maximum of three questions, which includes any follow-up questions. Candidates shall be interviewed in alphabetical order of last name. 4.Nomination and Voting Process to Select Applicant: a. Nomination Process: Councilmembers may nominate an applicant to fill the vacancy.A second is required. If no second is received,that applicant shall not be considered further unless no applicant receives a second, in which case all applicants who were nominated may be considered again. Councilmembers may not make more than one nomination unless the nominee declines the nomination and unless there is no second to the nomination;in which case the Councilmember make another nomination. Once the nominations are given,the Mayor shall close the nominations and Council shall proceed to vote. b. Voting Process. RCW 42.12.070 states that where one position is vacant, the remaining members of the governing body shall appoint a qualified person to fill the vacant position.By adoption of this policy,Council has chosen the following process for making such appointment: i.Except when there is only one nominee,a vote for an applicant shall be by written ballot.Each ballot shall contain the name of the Councilmember who cast it. ii.The vacancy may only be filled when a majority of the remaining City Council(whether present or not) affirmatively votes for the applicant, i.e. if five City Councilmembers are present, this would require at least four Councilmembers voting for an applicant. If subsequent rounds of voting are needed, each round of voting follows the same process. The Mayor may ask for Council discussion between voting rounds. iii. Round One Vote: The City Clerk shall publicly announce the results of the election.The applicant receiving the majority of votes shall be the new Councilmember.If no applicant receives a majority of votes from the City Council,then the three applicants receiving the most affirmative votes would be considered in a second round. iv. Round Two Vote: Round Two proceeds the same as Round One.If one of the three applicants still fails to receive a majority of affirmative votes, then the two applicants of the three who received the most affirmative votes would then be considered in a third round; or if there are only two applicants and they receive tie votes, a third round shall be taken. Councilmembers may change their vote between rounds. v. Round Three Vote: Round Three proceeds the same as Rounds One and Two. If after this round, the vote of the two applicants results in a tie,then the City Manager,with concurrence of Council shall flip a coin to determine who shall fill the vacancy,with the applicant whose last name is closest to the letter A being assigned"heads" and the other person assigned"tails."In the rare circumstance where Page 34 of 62 both applicants' last name begins with the same letter of the alphabet, the applicant whose entire last name is closest to the letter A shall be assigned "heads" and the other person assigned "tails." In the equally rare circumstance where both applicants have the same last name, the applicant whose first name is closest to the letter A shall be assigned"heads"and the other person assigned"tails." 5. Seating of New City Councilmember: Once an applicant either has received a majority of votes or wins the coin flip,if the appointed applicant is at the meeting,the City Clerk shall administer the oath of office, and the new Councilmember shall be officially seated as a City Councilmember. If the appointed applicant is not at the meeting, such action is not official until the applicant takes the oath of office. C. Legislative Agenda Councilmembers work each year (or sometimes every two years) to draft a State and a Federal "legislative agenda" to address Council ideas, suggestions and specific legislative programs in terms of upcoming or pending legislative activity in Olympia and Washington, D.C.that would or could have an effect on our City. Additionally, Councilmembers have the option of creating a similar legislative agenda to These agendas address concerns on a national level, which can also be addressed during Council's participation in the Association of Washington Cities (AWC)—annual conference, and the annual National League of Cities Conferences held in Washington,D.C. D. Council Travel Allocation Council is allocated a budget to handle certain City business-related travel expenses. The total allocation of travel funding budgeted for the legislative branch for the fiscal year shall be apportioned equally among six Councilmembers, and the Mayor may receive additional funding based on the extra travel demands of the office.These monies may be used to defray expenses for transportation,lodging,meals and incidental expenses incurred in the conduct of City business. Periodic updated statements of expenditures are available to Councilmembers upon request shall be provided to each Councilmember byto the Finance Department or the City Manager's Executive Assistant. Should a Councilmember exhaust their apportionment of funds, that person shall be personally responsible for payment of any travel and related expenses unless they have requested and received written affirmation from another Councilmember of their voluntary allocation to grant the travel related expenses from that granting Councilmember's travel apportionment. Such granting of travel allocations shall be documented with the appropriate completed form (see Appendix F). During the last six months of a Councilmember's current term of office,Councilmembers shall not incurfing City business-related travel expenditures outside a 50 mile radius,requires the prior authorization of the Finance Committee,except unless when such travel fulfills the obligations of the Councilmember's service on statewide or regional boards,commissions or task forces. E. COUNCIL EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT POLICY 1.Travel Approval and Expense. a. General Travel: Councilmembers are entitled to payment of and reimbursement for lawful expenditures incurred on official City business when such expenditures are within the allotted budget. The City shall not reimburse Councilmembers for meals or beverages with constituents when there is not at least a quorum present as that would not be considered official City business.The City shall not reimburse an expense associated with fundraising or political events.The City shall also not reimburse an expense if that expense is reimbursable by another agency. Each Councilmember shall be permitted to travel within the constraints of each Councilmember's allotted budget, which may also include donated allocation(s) from another Councilmember(s). (See Appendix F for Request Form.) b.Allowable Travel Expense.Allowed travel expenses include transportation,lodging,meals,and other related expenditures lawfully incurred by Councilmembers in the course and scope of their Councilmember duties.

Lodging is reimbursed for the actual cost of the room, minus any room extras.If paid in advance, a receipt is required for reimbursement. ii. Tips are allowable expenditures when they approximate 15% or less, unless the restaurant or personal service provider sets a mandatory group rate at a higher percentage, or the tip is already included in the expenditure.Please carefully examine your bill and be aware of statements such as"A service charge of %/$will be added to your bill."Reimbursement for tips is limited to food service, valet services, and taxi/ride share transportation. iii. When staff is making and paying for air travel arrangements, airline trip insurance may be purchased on a case-by-case basis at the discretion of the City Manager. Times when such trip insurance may be purchased include necessary travel when the weather is questionable. iv. Mileage shall be reimbursed according to the current IRS mileage rates for traveled miles as determined by such websites as google maps, or other internet apps or mileage distance calculators, using the shortest route between two places: c.Non-Reimbursement or Prohibition of Travel Expense. Unauthorized travel expenses include but are not limited to the following items, for which no reimbursement shall be allowed: i. Liquor ii.

For meetings or seminars hosted by an organization for which the City pays membership dues, lodging is limited to the amounts that are reasonable and necessary based upon the government or conference rate offered by the host hotel(s). iii. When an extra day's stay would reduce airfare beyond the extra day's hotel and meals, a Councilmember may stay an extra day. 2.Payment of Expenses. a.Use of City Credit Cards. Use of City credit cards for travel is authorized pursuant to chapter 2.65 SVMC. b. Prepayment. Examples of travel expenses subject to prepayment include registration fees, airline tickets, and certain lodging where the cost is part of the registration package.

Reimbursement. Expenses for the use of personally-owned vehicles in the course of City business are reimbursed at the then-current U.S. Government(IRS) rate. Councilmembers who use their personal car for City business shall carry,at a minimum,the Washington state required insurance coverage. Councilmembers shall be responsible for maintaining this coverage at their own cost. b. Passengers. Should more than one Councilmember travel in the same personal vehicle on City business, only the individual owning the vehicle is entitled to reimbursement for transportation. 4. Cancellation. A Councilmember shall adhere to cancellation deadlines when canceling conferences, seminars, regional meetings,hotel,and airfare,or any other pre-payment or obligation made on his/her behalf.

F. Ballot Measures: 1. State Law RCW 42.17A 555. State law has enacted statutory prohibitions (with limited exceptions) against the use of public facilities to support or oppose ballot propositions: "No elective official nor any employee of his or her office nor any person appointed to or employed by any public office or agency may use or authorize the use of any of the facilities of a public office or agency, directly or indirectly,for the purpose of assisting a campaign for election of any person to any office or for the promotion of or opposition to any ballot proposition. Facilities of a public office or agency include, but are not limited to, use of stationery,postage, machines, and equipment, use of employees of the office or agency during working hours, vehicles, office space,publications of the office or agency, and clientele lists of persons served by the office or agency. However, this does not apply to the following activities: (1)Action taken at an open public meeting by members of an elected legislative body or by an elected board, council, or commission of a special purpose district including, but not limited to, fire districts, public hospital districts, library districts, park districts, port districts, public utility districts, school districts, sewer districts, and water districts, to express a collective decision, or to actually vote upon a motion, proposal, resolution, order, or ordinance, or to support or oppose a ballot proposition so long as (a) any required notice of the meeting includes the title and number of the ballot proposition, and (b) members of the legislative body, members of the board, council, or commission of the special purpose district, or members of the public are afforded an approximately equal opportunity for the expression of an opposing view. (2)A statement by an elected official in support of or in opposition to any ballot proposition at an open press conference or in response to a specific inquiry; (3)Activities which are part of the normal and regular conduct of the office or agency. " [emphasis added] 2. City's Implementation of RCW 42.17A.555 In the City's implementation of RCW 42.17A.555,the City Council shall not,during any part of any Council meeting, consider requests from outside agencies or individuals, for Council to support or oppose ballot measures;nor shall Council permit any public comment on any past,current,or future possible/proposed ballot issue,whether or not such comments seek endorsement or are just to inform Council of upcoming or proposed ballot issues;nor shall Councilmembers disseminate ballot-related information. Page 37 of 62 3. Providing Informative Materials to Council The requestor has the option of mailing materials to individual Councilmembers via the United States Postal Office. Because even the use of e-mail for ballot purposes could be construed as use of public facilities and could be interpreted as being in violation of RCW 42.17A.555, materials should be sent via regular mail through the United States Postal Office. Information shall be objective only and not soliciting a pro or con position. 4. Public Comment. Council has determined that ballot issues(including past,current,or possible/proposed ballot issue)are not the business of the City, and has chosen not to support or oppose ballot issues as those are left to the will of the people voting.The use of any of the City's facilities including the use of the Council chambers and/or broadcast system would likely be construed as being in violation of RCW 42.17A.555 and therefore, general public comment on ballot issues,or proposed ballot issues shall not be permitted. (See page 14, Chapter 1,C Public Comments for more specific direction on allowable public comment) Page 38 of 62 CHAPTER 3 Council Contacts , � , fit • AL& 0 Ay it qr $C4 4:to 0 - 6M I V D Page 39 of 62 A. Citizen Contact/Interactions Outside of a Council Meeting 1. Mayor/Council Correspondence Councilmembers acknowledge that in the Council/Manager form of government,the Mayor is recognized by community members as a point of contact. To facilitate full communications, staff shall work with the Mayor to circulate to Councilmembers,copies of emails and written correspondence directed to the Mayor regarding City business. This provision shall not apply to invitations for mayoral comments at various functions, nor requests for appointments or other incidental contact between citizens and the office of the Mayor. 2. Concerns, Complaints and Su22estions to Council When citizen concerns, complaints or suggestions are brought to any, some, or all Councilmembers, the Councilmember Mayor shouldslaall,when deemed appropriate and/or necessary,consult with the City Manager to,first determine whether the issue is legislative or administrative in nature and then: i. If legislative, and a concern or complaint is about the language or intent of legislative acts or suggestions for changes to such acts, and if such complaint suggests a change to an ordinance or resolution of the City, the Mayor and City Managcrmatter may be referred, with Council consensus. the matter to a future Council agenda for Council's recommendation in forwarding the matter to a committee,administration,or to the Council for study and recommendation. ii. If administrative, and a concern or complaint regards administrative staff performance, execution of legislative policy or administrative policy within the authority of the City Manager, the Councilmember Mayer should then refer the complaint directly to the City Manager for review,if said complaint has not been so reviewed. The City Council may direct that the City Manager brief the Council when the City Manager's response is made. 3. Administrative Complaints Made Directly to Individual Councilmembers a. When administrative policy or administrative performance complaints are made directly to individual Councilmembers,the Councilmember shouldsll then refer the matter directly to the City Manager for review and/or action. The individual Councilmember may request to be informed of the action or response made to the complaint. However, the City Manager shall not be required to divulge information he/she deems confidential,in conformity with applicable statutes,ordinances,regulations,policies or practices. b. Although citizens' direct access to elected officials is to be encouraged to help develop public policy, City Councilmembers should not develop a "personal intervention" pattern in minor calls for service or administrative appeals which may actually delay a timely customer service response. The best policy is to get the citizen into direct contact with customer service unless an unsatisfactory result has occurred in the past. In that case,refer to the paragraph above. 4. Social Media Councilmembers shall not use social media as a mechanism for conducting official City business, although it is permissible to use social media to informally communicate with the public. Examples of what may not be communicated through the use of social media include making policy decisions, official public noticing, and discussing items of legal or fiscal significance that have not been released to the public.As with telephone and e-mails, communication between and among Councilmembers via social media could constitute a"meeting" under the Open Public Meetings Act, and for this reason, Councilmembers are strongly discouraged from "friending" other Councilmembers. 5.Donations On occasion,Councilmembers could be contacted by citizens or businesses regarding donations. .(See Spokane Valley Municipal Code 3.34. for policy on donations. Page 40 of 62 B. Staff Contacts and Interactions 1. Role of the City Manager The City Manager is the chief administrative officer of the City of Spokane Valley. The City Manager is directly accountable to the City Council for the execution of the City Council's policy directives, and for the administration and management of all City depaitnients.The powers and duties of the City Manager are defined by Washington law RCW 35A.13.080. Such duties may be expanded by Ordinance or Resolution. Balanced with the City Manager's accountability to the City Council for policy implementation is the need for the Council to allow the City Manager to perform legally defined duties and responsibilities without interference by the City Council in the management decisions of the City Manager. 2. City Staff Attendance at Meetings a. The City Manager or his/her designee shall attend all meetings of the City Council, unless excused by the Presiding Officer or Council. The City Manager shall be responsible to the Council for the proper administration of all affairs of the City. The City Manager shall recommend for adoption by the Council such measures as he/she may deem necessary or expedient;prepare and submit to the Council such reports as may be required by the body or as the City Manager deems advisable to submit; keep the Council fully advised as to the business of the City;and shall take part in the Council's discussion on all matters concerning the welfare of the City. (RCW 35A.13.080) b. It is Council's intent that the City Manager schedule adequate administrative support during Council meetings for the business at hand, keeping in mind that the City Manager must also protect the productive capability of department directorshcad5 and of all staff Required attendance at meetings by City staff shall be at the pleasure of the City Manager. 3. City Clerk-Minutes The City Clerk, or in the Clerk's absence the Deputy City Clerk shall keep minutes as required by law, and shall perform such other duties in the meeting as may be required by the Council, Presiding Officer, or City Manager.In the absence of the City Clerk and the Deputy City Clerk,the City Clerk shall appoint a replacement to act as Clerk during the Council meeting. The Clerk shall keep minutes which identifies the general discussion of the issue and complete detail of the official action or agreement reached, if any. As a rule and when possible and practical,regular meetings, or those Council meetings held at 6 p.m. on Tuesdays, (which includes formal format and study session format)shall be video-recorded. Special meetings shall not normally be video-recorded. Executive Sessions shall not be video or audio recorded. Original, signed and approved minutes shall be kept on file in the City Clerk's office and archived according to State Record Retention Schedules. Copies of the approved minutes shall also be posted on the City's website as soon as practical after such minutes are approved and signed. Whenever possible, video recordings of Council meetings shall be posted on the City's website. 4. Administrative Interference by Councilmembers Neither the Council nor any of its committees or members shall direct or request the appointment of any person to, or his/her removal from, any office by the City Manager or any of his/her subordinates. Except for the purpose of inquiry,the Council and its members shall deal with the administrative branch solely through the City Manager and neither the Council nor any committee or member thereof shall give any directives, tasks, or orders to any subordinate of the City Manager,either publicly or privately;provided,however,that nothing herein shall be construed to prohibit the Council,while in open session, from fully and freely discussing with the City Manager anything pertaining to appointments and removals of City officers and employees and City affairs. (RCW 35A.13.120.) 5. Informal Communications Encouraged RCW 35A.13.120 should not be construed as to prevent informal communications with City staff that do not involve orders, direction, or are meant to influence actions or administrative policy. Members of the Council are encouraged to interact informally and casually with City staff for the purpose of gathering information, Page 41 of 62 obtaining explanations of policies and programs or providing incidental information to staff relevant to their assignment. Such informal contacts can serve to promote better understanding of specific City functions and problems. However, Councilmembers must be careful in such interaction to avoid giving direction or advice to members of City staff.While maintaining open lines of communication,City staff responding to information requests from Councilmembers shall inform their supervisor of such contact and provide the supervisor with the same information shared with the Councilmember.

Spokane Valley Councilmembers and/or residents who seek representation on any standing committee, board,or commission required by state law,shall be appointed by the Mayor with confirmation by the Council. b.Appointment Process:Any committee,board,commission,task force,etc., requiring Mayoral appointment of committee members, shall also require confirmation by the Council, which shall be by majority vote of those present at the time the vote takes place.By majority vote,Council can reject the appointment.If Council fails to confirm the recommended appointment,the Mayor could either make another recommendation,or the appointment may be postponed to a later date,giving City staff opportunity to further advertise for committee openings. This process also applies to the annual appointment of Councilmembers to Committees and Boards, which is usually done during the first few weeks of January. c.Attendance at Committee/Board meetings:Attendance at these meetings is important so that a report can be given to the full Council concerning the meeting's activities, plans, agenda, etc. If the assigned Councilmember cannot attend the committee meeting, every effort should be made to give advance notice to the committee alternate to attend in their stead if possible. c. Removal Process of Councilmember. Any Councilmember on any committee, board, commission, task force,etc.,requiring Mayoral appointment,may be removed by the Mayor,with confirmation by the Council, which shall be by majority vote of those present at the time the vote takes place. d. Removal Process of Citizen: Any citizen on any committee,board, commission,task force, etc.,requiring Mayoral appointment, may be removed by the Mayor, with confirmation by the Council, which shall be by majority vote of those present at the time the confirmation vote takes place. Reasons for removal include conflict of interest,unexcused multiple absences, or for those committees which require the appointee to be a Spokane Valley citizen, failure to qualify as to residency. e. A Councilmember or citizen may resign due to conflicts of time or scheduling commitments, or other personal reasons. A vacancy caused by resignation, shall be filled as soon as appropriate,but not sooner than two weeks,with notation of such on the advance agenda. f. These committee, commission board appointments as well as removals, shall be placed as action items on Council meeting agendas, and when possible and practical,will be noted on the Advance Agenda at least two weeks prior to such action. 2. Council Relations with Boards, Commissions and Council Citizen Advisory Bodies a. The purpose of these appointments is to provide Council with insight into areas of interest or concern within each board.As liaisons and representatives of the City,it is the duty of Councilmembers to remember that their sole purpose in attending these meetings and participating as an appointed board/committee member is to represent the City; and as such during those meetings,Councilmembers may not act as a representative of any other business,group or organization without the express consent of the Council. b. Councilmembers are encouraged to share with all Councilmembers, copies of minutes from any statutory boards,commissions,or committees on which they serve and participate. Communications from such boards, commissions and bodies to the City Council which seek action or feedback, should be acknowledged by the Council, preferably by a letter from the Mayor. Any member of the Council may also bring such communication to the Presiding Officer's attention under the agenda item "Committee, Board and Liaison Reports." If any member of the Council requests that any such communication be officially answered by the Council,the Presiding Officer may place the matter on an upcoming agenda under New Business,Information, Council Comments (study session format), or other appropriate place, for a specific Council meeting, or take other appropriate action. Page 44 of 62 B. In-House Committees,Boards, etc. 1. Standing committees or commissions required by law shall be appointed by the Mayor for a time certain not to exceed the term provided by law or the term of office of the appointing Mayor and confirmed by Council. Such appointments are generally made at the first or second meeting in January.Following are established in- house committees: a. Planning Commission--7 members. "SVMC 18.10.010 Establishment and purpose. There is created the City of Spokane Valley Planning Commission (hereafter referred to as the "Planning Commission").

Lodging Tax Advisory Committee-- 5 members. "SVMC 3.20.040 Lodging tax advisory committee. The City Council shall establish a lodging tax advisory committee consisting of five members. Two members of the committee shall be representatives of businesses required to collect the tax,and at least two members shall be persons involved in activities authorized to be funded by this chapter.

One member of the committee shall be from the City Council.Annually, the membership of the committee shall be reviewed. The Mayor shall nominate persons and the Councilmember for the lodging tax advisory committee with Council confirmation of the nominees. Nominations shall state the term of committee membership.Appointments shall be for one- and two- year terms." Page 45 of 62 c. Finance Committee--3 members. The Finance Committee generally consists of three Councilmembers. Meetings are conducted on an as-needed basis as determined by the City Manager.Matters that should be addressed by the Finance Committee,include,but are not limited to: i. authorizing on short notice, approval of change orders that are in excess of the amounts authorized in SVMC 3.35.010(C),in circumstances where such a change order is necessary to avoid a substantial risk of harm to the City. In such an event, the City Manager shall provide appropriate information to the city council at its next regular meeting setting forth the factual basis for the action. ii. during the last six months of a Councilmember's current term of office, incurring City business-related travel expenditures requires the prior authorization of the Finance Committee,except when such travel fulfills the obligations of the Councilmember's service on statewide or regional boards,commissions or task forces. iii. a Councilmember shall adhere to cancellation deadlines when canceling conferences, seminars,regional meetings,hotel,and airfare,or any other pre-payment or obligation made on his/her behalf. Except in the case of a personal or family emergency, or in the event the cancellation was a City business decision,expenses incurred by the City resulting from failure to conform to cancellation deadlines are the personal responsibility of the Councilmember and the Fin..n-e C.»,-.mittee sl a" be informed, and those expenses shall be repaid to the City within fourteen calendar days of the cancellation. This is generally tracked by the City Manager's Executive Assistant. d. Governance Manual Committee—5 -6 members This committee usually consists of two or three Councilmembers,the City Manager,the City Attorney, and the City Clerk. The purpose of this Committee is to periodically review the Governance Manual for edits needed for clarity or correction, or to add or edit specific sections by Council consensus, or by request of staff as the need arises.After discussion as a committee,the matter may be scheduled as an administrative report on a future Council agenda. The finalized Governance Manual shall be approved via Resolution. This committee should strive to meet quarterly throughout the year, e.g. in February,May,August, and November. e.Agenda Committee—Mayor,Deputy Mayor,City Manager,City Clerk At the Mayor's option, and either by a schedule determined by the Mayor or by personal individual invitation,the Mayor may invite a third Councilmember to attend this weekly meeting.The attendance by a third Councilmember is at the third Councilmember's discretion.Other staff may be invited at the discretion of the City Manager.As noted in Chapter 1(B)(4),this committee generally meets at a fixed weekly time to review the Council agenda of the upcoming meeting as an opportunity to ask questions and/or request additional materials or research needed for the impending meeting, and to review the Advance Agenda,which is a planning document to aid in scheduling items on future Council agendas. Since this is a standing committee of the Mayor, Deputy Mayor, City Manager, and City Clerk, no committee appointments are necessary. 2. When required by law, committee meetings should be open to the public, including the media, unless discussing matters which would qualify for an executive session if discussed within the whole Council. All Council committee meetings shall be for the purpose of considering legislative policy matters, rather than administrative matters unless requested by the City Manager. Legislative policy considerations should be brought to the Council unless referred to a committee for pre-study. 3. The Mayor may appoint such other ad hoc advisory committees or liaisons from the Council or community for the purpose of advising the Council in legislative policy matters. All ad hoc committees shall be defined by a clear task and a method of"sunsetting"the committee at the conclusion of the assigned task. As with all committee vacancies, ads announcing a vacancy or soliciting membership or participation in a task force or other committee shall be placed on the City's website,and in the City's official newspaper. C. Private Committees, Commissions, and Boards Page 46 of 62 The Council recognizes there are various other private boards and committees,such as Spokane Neighborhood Action Partners (SNAP), which appointments are made by their own board. These boards and committees which do not require an appointment by our Mayor, with confirmation by our Council, are nonetheless important aspects of our community and we recognize the time commitment any Councilmember may extend as a member of any of those committees and/or boards.As well,Council appreciates hearing a periodic report or update on activities and issues surrounding those boards and committees. Page 47 of 62 APPENDIX A Quasi-Judicial Hearings 1. Purpose Quasi-judicial public hearings involve the legal rights of specific parties, and the decisions made as a result of such hearings must be based upon and supported by the "record" developed at the hearing. Quasi-judicial hearings are subject to stricter procedural requirements than legislative hearings.Most quasi-judicial hearings held by local government bodies involve land use matters, including site specific rezones, preliminary plats, variances,and conditional uses.(MRSC Public Hearings When and How to Hold Them by Bob Meinig, MRSC Legal Consultant August 1998) 2. Specific Statutory Provisions a.Candidates for the City Council may express their opinions about pending or proposed quasi-judicial actions while campaigning, pursuant to RCW 42.36.040, except that sitting Councilmembers shall not express their opinions on any such matter which is or may come before the Council. b.Ex parte communications should be avoided whenever possible. During the pendency of any quasi-judicial proceeding,no Councilmember may engage in ex parte communications with proponents or opponents about a proposal involved in the pending proceeding unless the Councilmember: (1) places on the record the substance of such verbal or written communications; and (2) provides that a public announcement of the content of the communication and of the parties' rights to rebut the substance of the communication shall be made at each hearing where action is taken or considered on the subject. This does not prohibit correspondence between a citizen and his or her elected official if the correspondence is made a part of the record, when it pertains to the subject matter of a quasi-judicial proceeding. (RCW 42.36.060) 3. Actions/Procedures for a Quasi-Judicial Public Hearing See Spokane Valley Municipal Code Appendix C for City Council Appeal Hearing Procedures.

The State Auditor's Office was on site in July to begin the audit of 2021. 2023 Budclet Development The 2023 Budget development process began in the Finance Department in early March, and on April 5th we sent detailed budget requests to all departments to complete by mid-May. By the time the budget is scheduled to be adopted on November 8th, the Council will have had an opportunity to discuss the budget on seven occasions including three public hearings. • June 14 Council budget workshop • August 24 Admin report on 2023 revenues and expenditures • September 13 Public hearing #1 on the 2023 revenues and expenditures • October 4 City Manager's presentation of preliminary 2023 Budget • October 11 Public hearing #2 on 2023 Budget • October 25 First reading on proposed ordinance adopting the 2023 Budget • November 8 Public hearing #3 on the 2023 Budget • November 8 Second reading on proposed ordinance adopting the 2023 Budget 2023 Property Tax Levy A significant part of the budget development process includes the annual levy of property taxes which in 2023 are expected to account for approximately 24.09% of recurring General Fund revenues. Council discussions specifically related to this topic will take place at the following meetings: • September 13 Public hearing on 2023 revenues including property taxes • September 20 Admin Report on proposed ordinance levying 2023 property taxes • October 11 First reading of ordinance levying 2023 property taxes and confirming tax levy • October 25 Second reading of ordinance levying 2023 property taxes and confirming tax levy P:1FinancelFinance Activity Reports\Council Monthly Reports1202212022 06 30.docx Page 1 Outside Aciency Fundinci in the 2023 Budciet The City has historically provided funding for local organizations involved in either social services or economic development activities and the preliminary 2023 Budget currently has $244,000 collectively available for this, with $62,000 being set aside for contracted economic development. The schedule leading to awarding funds is as follows: • July 15 Letters mailed to agencies that have historically received funding, media release to City website and notice to newspapers • August 12 Agency requests are due at City Hall • September 20 Economic development and social service agency presentations to Council • October 25 Council makes final determination of awards Budciet to Actual Comparison Report A report reflecting 2022 Budget to Actual Revenues and Expenditures for those funds for which a 2022 Budget was adopted is located on pages 5 through 18. Because we attempt to provide this information in a timely manner, this report is prepared from records that are not formally closed by the Finance Department at month end or reconciled to bank records. Although it is realistic to expect the figures will change over subsequent weeks, I believe the report is materially accurate. We've included the following information in the report: • Revenues by source for all funds, and expenditures by department in the General Fund and by type in all other funds. • A breakdown between recurring and nonrecurring revenues and expenditures in the General Fund, Street O&M Fund and Stormwater Fund. • The change in fund balance including beginning and ending figures. The beginning fund balance figures are those that are reflected in our 2021 Annual Financial Report. • Columns of information include: o The 2022 Budget as adopted o June 2022 activity o Cumulative 2022 activity through June 2022 o Budget remaining in terms of dollars o The percent of budgeted revenue collected or budgeted expenditures disbursed A few points related to the General Fund #001 (page 5): Recurring revenues collections are currently at 50.00% of the amount budgeted with 50.00% of the year elapsed. • Property taxes are paid to Spokane County in two installments each year on April 30 and October 31 and are then remitted to the City primarily in May and November with lesser amounts typically remitted in June and December. Property taxes received thus far in 2022 are $7,327,498 or 55.51% of the amount budgeted. • Sales tax collections represent only four months of collections thus far because taxes collected in June are not remitted to the City by the State until the latter part of July. Collections are currently at$12,738,882 or 45.96% of the amount budgeted. • Gambling taxes are at$150,810 or 41.32% of the amount budgeted. Gambling taxes are paid quarterly with second quarter payments due by July 31st. • Franchise Fee and Business Registration revenues are typically received in the month following a calendar year quarter. So far in 2022 we have received $422,553 or 34.78% of the amount budgeted. P:1FinancelFinance Activity Reports\Council Monthly Reports1202212022 06 30.docx Page 2 • State shared revenues are composed of State of Washington distributions that include items such as liquor board profits, liquor excise tax, streamlined sales tax mitigation and criminal justice monies. Most of these revenues are paid by the State in the month following a calendar quarter. Through June we've received remittances totaling $902,886 or 45.25% of the amount budgeted. • Fines and forfeitures revenues are composed of monthly remittances from Spokane County with payments made in the month following the actual assessment of a fine and false alarm fees. Through June we've received remittances through the month of May with receipts of $203,385 or 38.54% of the amount budgeted. • Community and Public Works service revenues are largely composed of building permit and plan review fees as well as right of way permits. Revenues are currently at $2,203,540 or 83.59% of the amount budgeted. • Recreation program revenues are composed of revenues generated by the variety of parks and recreation programs including classes, swimming pools (in-season), and CenterPlace. Currently, revenues total $356,359 or 56.62% of the amount budgeted. Recurring expenditures are currently at$20,853,030 or 42.47% of the amount budgeted with 50.00% of the year elapsed. Investments (page 19) Investments at June 30 total $94,283,441 and are composed of $89,184,089 in the Washington State Local Government Investment Pool and $5,099,352 in bank CDs. Total Sales Tax Receipts (page 20) Total sales tax receipts reflect State remittances through June and total $14,387,603 including general, criminal justice, and public safety taxes. This figure is $29,328 or 0.20% less than the same five-month period in 2021. Economic Indicators (pages 21 —23) The following economic indicators provide information pertaining to three different sources of tax revenue that provide a good gauge of the health and direction of the overall economy. 1. Sales taxes (page 21) provide a sense of how much individuals and businesses are spending on the purchase of goods. 2. Hotel / Motel taxes (page 22) provide us with a sense of overnight stays and visits to our area by tourists or business travelers. 3. Real Estate Excise taxes (page 23) provide us with a sense of real estate sales. Page 21 provides a 10-year history of general sales tax receipts (not including public safety or criminal justice) with monthly detail beginning January 2013. • Compared with calendar year 2021, 2022 collections have decreased by $177,824 or 1.38%. • Tax receipts reached an all-time high in 2021 of $31,499,534, besting the previous record year of 2020 when $25,238,481 was collected. Page 22 provides a 10-year history of hotel/motel tax receipts with monthly detail beginning January 2013. • Compared with calendar year 2021, 2022 collections have increased by$112,724 or 62.26%. • Collections reached an all-time high in 2021 of $744,437, besting the previous record of $743,851 in 2019. P:1FinancelFinance Activity Reports\Council Monthly Reports1202212022 06 30.docx Page 3 Page 23 provides a 10-year history of real estate excise tax receipts with monthly detail beginning January 2013. • Compared with calendar year 2021, 2022 collections have increased by$195,846 or 10.25%. • Collections reached an all-time high in 2021 of$6,218,227. Debt Capacity and Bonds Outstandinci (page 24) This page provides information on the City's debt capacity, or the dollar amount of General Obligation (G.O.) Bonds the City may issue, as well as an amortization schedule of the bonds the City currently has outstanding. • The maximum amount of G.O. bonds the City may issue is determined by the assessed value for property taxes which for 2022 is $12,919,694,944. Following the December 1, 2021 debt service payments, the City has $10,485,000 of nonvoted G.O. bonds outstanding which represents 5.41% of our nonvoted bond capacity, and 1.08% of our total debt capacity for all types of bonds. Of this amount: o $3,780,000 remains on bonds issued for the construction of CenterPlace. These bonds are repaid with a portion of the 1/10 of 1% sales tax that is collected by the Spokane Public Facilities District. o $305,000 remains on bonds issued for road and street improvements around CenterPlace. The bonds are repaid with a portion of the real estate excise tax collected by the City. o $6,400,000 remains on bonds issued for construction of the new City Hall. The bonds are repaid with General Fund revenues. Street Fund Revenue Sources (pages 25 and 26) The last two charts reflect a history for the two primary sources of revenue in Street Fund #101. These include: Page 25 provides a 10-year history of Motor Vehicle Fuel Tax collections with monthly detail beginning January 2013. • Compared with calendar year 2021, 2022 collections have increased by $66,734 or 9.15%. • Tax receipts peaked in 2007 at just approximately $2.1 million and have generally ranged around $2 million in the years 2013 through 2021. Page 26 provides a 10-year history of Telephone Utility Tax collections with monthly detail beginning January 2013. • Compared with 2021, 2022 collections have decreased by $24,012 or 5.53%. Unlike tax revenues collected by the State and remitted monthly, these taxes are paid to the City directly by the service provider. Consequently, there is not a "clean cutoff' in terms of when a vendor pays the tax. • Tax receipts peaked in 2009 at $3,054,473 and have decreased each year since due to what we suspect is the reduction in land lines by individual households as well as a reallocation of revenues from voice plans to data plans by cell phone companies. • The 2022 Budget was adopted with a revenue estimate of $932,000. We will watch actual receipts closely as the year progresses.

35,370,197.09 14,387,603.14 Sales tax receipts reported here reflect remittances for general sales tax, criminal justice sales tax and public safety tax. The sales tax rate for retail sales transacted within the boundaries of the City of Spokane Valley is 8.9%. The tax that is paid by a purchaser at the point of sale is remitted by the vendor to the Washington State Department of Revenue who then remits the taxes back to the various agencies that have imposed the tax. The allocation of the total 8.9%tax rate to the agencies is as follows: - State of Washington 6.50% - City of Spokane Valley 0.85% - Spokane County 0.15% - Spokane Public Facilities District 0.10% * - Criminal Justice 0.10% - Public Safety 0.10% *— 2.40% local tax - Juvenile Jail 0.10% * - Mental Health 0.10% * - Law Enforcement Communications 0.10% * - Spokane Transit Authority 0.80% 8.90% * Indicates voter approved sales taxes In addition to the .85% reported above that the City receives, we also receive a portion of the Criminal Justice and Public Safety sales taxes. The distribution of those taxes is computed as follows: Criminal Justice: The tax is assessed county-wide and of the total collected, the State distributes 10%of the receipts to Spokane County, with the remainder allocated on a per capita basis to the County and the cities within the County.

Arrested: Motorcycle Riders Evade Marked Patrol Car but Cannot Outrun SRASU Air 2-Two Motorcycle riders fled from a Spokane Valley Deputy last night. A pursuit was not initiated due to state law restrictions and the dangers associated with motorcycle-involved chases. The riders continued to drive recklessly as they fled toward what they thought was a successful attempt to evade law enforcement. However, they didn't know that Spokane Regional Air Support Unit (SRASU), Air 2, was up on a scheduled patrol flight. Air 2 quickly spotted the fleeing motorcycles and continually provided the location of the motorcycles to deputies on the ground. The riders eventually pulled over, apparently knowing they were being watched and waited for their arrest. In late August, at approximately 6:55 p.m., Spokane Valley Deputy A. Johnson observed two males riding motorcycles recklessly north on Progress Road from Sprague Avenue. Attempting to catch up to the motorcycles, Deputy Johnson relocated them on E. Mission Avenue and Progress Road. They accelerated rapidly westbound on Mission,reaching speeds visually estimated to be 80 mph. Deputy Johnson again observed the motorcycles stopped at a red light on Evergreen Road and I-90. Deputy Johnson moved in behind the motorcycles and activated his emergency equipment to attempt a traffic stop. He noted the motorcycles had their license plates bent upward, making them difficult to read. The riders, an 18-year-old male and a 19-year-old, looked back at the fully marked patrol car. The riders/suspects decided to flee instead of immediately pulling over as required by Washington State law. Both riders continued west on Indiana Avenue at speeds visually estimated to be 100 mph. Spokane SRASU Air 2, already up on a patrol flight, quickly acquired the recklessly fleeing motorcycles from high above, providing ground units with location information, which allowed them to follow at a distance and a safe speed. Air 2 noted the riders' reckless and dangerous behavior as they passed vehicles in a bike lane, failed to obey red lights, drove at high rates of speed, crossed over double yellow lines to pass other motorists, almost struck another vehicle head-on, and multiple other violations, risking their own safety and the safety of others Page 9 traveling on the roadways. This reckless and dangerous behavior continued for approximately 18- minutes without patrol vehicles behind them. Eventually, both riders pulled over, parked at a gravel pit, 15928 N. Forker, and waited for Air 2 to guide deputies to their location. When Deputy T. Kullman and Deputy Johnson arrived, the riders were taken into custody without further incident. After being advised of his rights,the 19-year-old suspect admitted to driving recklessly and looking back at Deputy Johnson's patrol car with its emergency lights activated, stating, "I definitely saw you, sir." During the attempt to flee, he drove at speeds over 100 mph, admitting he was acting dumb and didn't want to get caught. He noticed a helicopter and assumed it was a police helicopter but believed he could outrun it. During the interview, Deputy Johnson noted the 19-year-old suspect appeared remorseful for his actions. The I 8-year-old suspect being advised of his rights, admitted to driving recklessly and looking back at Deputy Johnson's patrol car with its emergency lights activated. While attempting to flee, he drove at speeds over 100 mph, noticed a helicopter, and assumed it was a police helicopter, but believed he could outrun it. He explained that he fled from the traffic stop because he didn't have a motorcycle endorsement. Deputy Johnson noted during the interview, the 18-year-old suspect laughed and seemed to show no remorse for his actions. On the way to jail, he made a statement similar to, "No phone for however long; this sucks." Both male suspects were transported and booked into the Spokane County Jail for felony Attempting to Elude Law Enforcement Vehicle and Reckless Driving, a misdemeanor. Without the assistance of Air 2, these young males would have successfully evaded deputies. However, with the help of Air 2, they were followed at a safe distance, despite their continued dangerous/reckless driving behavior, and eventually arrested. Thankfully no one, the suspects, deputies, or any uninvolved motorists, were injured during this incident. For this incident, the Air 2 Flight Crew consisted of Volunteer Pilot Don Kresse, TFO Deputy C. Giacomini, and.TFO Detective J. Karnitz. SWAT Successfully Arrests Barricaded Uncooperative Suspect-Spokane Valley Deputies began investigating a Domestic Violence Order for Protection Violation (DVOPV) and developed probable cause to arrest the suspect for nine felony charges and two misdemeanors. The suspect refused to exit his apartment despite several attempts to gain his cooperation. The SWAT Team and Crisis Negotiators continued efforts to get him to comply but were unsuccessful. With a signed search warrant, SWAT Team members entered the apartment and contacted the suspect. The suspect remained defiant, and a less lethal impact munition was deployed when the suspect reached toward a knife. He was safely taken into custody, cleared medically, and booked into the Spokane County Jail for nine felonies (Violation of a DVOPV, eight counts of Computer Trespass 1st Degree) and two misdemeanors (Malicious Mischief 3''a Degree and Resisting Arrest).

She stated the 33-year-old male suspect violated a no-contact order that was in place. He went to her residence, attempted to contact her, and broke her video doorbell camera. She also provided evidence that the male suspect accessed several of her email and social media accounts and changed her passwords, locking her out of the accounts. The suspect then contacted the victim, violating the court order again, and threatened to post/send out derogatory, demeaning, and humiliating information through the accounts if she didn't meet him in person. Deputies responded to the suspect's apartment, 2900 block of N. Cherry Ln., and confirmed he was inside the apartment. Several attempts to contact the suspect were unsuccessful, including several announcements from a fully marked patrol car's PA system with emergency lights activated. During this time, someone inside the apartment closed all the blinds and turned off all the lights. Previously, the suspect threatened to try and provoke law Page 10 enforcement into shooting him, and currently was choosing not to comply or exit his apartment. Due to this extremely dangerous situation,and it was unknown if he had access to firearms in the apartment, SWAT and Crisis Negotiators were summoned to the scene, and a search warrant was requested. Other occupants of apartments in the immediate area were advised to evacuate or shelter in place for their safety. Once at the location, SWAT and Negotiators tried to coax the suspect into surrendering peacefully; however, he claimed,via text,that he wasn't inside the apartment, stating he was at work. Deputies confirmed he was observed inside the apartment and was not working where he claimed. At approximately 11:55 p.m.,a signed and valid search warrant was obtained, and SWAT Team members moved up to the suspect's door at approximately 12:25 a.m. The apartment was entered, and the suspect was found lying on the living room couch. He refused to obey commands asking deputies to say please. When the suspect began to reach for a pocketknife in his pants pocket, a less lethal impact round was used, and he was taken into custody without further incident. The male suspect was provided medical attention and cleared. He was transported and booked into the Spokane County Jail for nine felonies, Violation of a DVOPV, eight counts of Computer Trespass I'Degree, and two misdemeanors, Malicious Mischief 3L Degree and Resisting Arrest.

He shined his flashlight on the hill toward the location of the f• noise and noticed a male subject climbing up toward - him. He challenged the male, who complied and was taken into custody. The 36-year-old male suspect gave several names and dates of birth, but no matches were found. One of the names the suspect used came back with a different date of birth,showed no Washington driver's license,hat had local law enforcement contacts. Deputy Z. Stewart compared the physical descriptors and a picture of the possible person and determined the male suspect had lied again. The suspect provided another name and birth date,but that also returned with no record found.

Stewart confirmed the male suspect's identity by a known photo. Deputy R. Sullivan located and recovered a sinch-style bag on the property near the location the suspect was observed on camera. The bag contained a DeWalt drill with a bit installed, which matched another bit in the suspect's pocket. A knife and a screwdriver were also found during the search.

The suspect would not provide details about what occurred on the property and denied involvement in a crime. He said that although he lied earlier about his name, he was now telling the truth. The male suspect was wearing one glove on his hand, which Deputy R. Sullivan noticed matched a glove on the ground near a lock that appeared to have been drilled out. Deputy R. Sullivan retrieved the glove, which had metal shavings on it, and it matched the one the male suspect was wearing. When confronted with this information, the suspect tried to explain it away, saying it was found on the ground where metal shavings were already. The male suspect was transported and booked into the Spokane County Jail for Commercial Burglary, Making/Possessing Burglary Tools, Malicious Mischief 3rd Degree, Criminal Impersonation 1st Degree, and Making False or Misleading Statements. He is also being held on two misdemeanor warrants for Driving while Suspended 2nd Degree and could face extradition to Idaho for his felony warrant. The male suspect remains in the Spokane County Jail with a total bond set at $1,250. a it- ik a. * a L 0 C K LOCK OBSERVE CARS SHOULD KEEP GARAGE ITEMS IN AND REPORT NEVER RUN DOORS CLOSED YOUR TRUNK UNATTENDED Help our Deputies/Investigators Hold Criminals Accountable while Keeping Your Neighborhood Safe - If you have a home or business surveillance system, we would like you to join our VIP (Video Identification Program) program. This is a voluntary program, and we are only asking for locations of security systems that may help investigators quickly find video footage if a crime occurred in your area. We are NOT asking for access to your system. What is it? The VIP program lets us know where video footage might be found in the event a significant incident or crime occurred in the area. With this information, investigators would know the potential locations where video evidence of the actual incident, or a suspect/vehicle entering or leaving the area where the crime occurred, might be found. This type of evidence and the ability to obtain it quickly is invaluable. Are you asking for access to remotely access my surveillance system? No, not at all. We merely ask you to let us know that you have a system and what direction/area it may have recorded. Investigators can then easily access a map of surveillance cameras locations in the area where a crime was committed,including possible routes taken by the suspect(s) as they arrived or fled the scene. In addition, they would have your contact information allowing them to contact locations that may have this valuable evidence recorded. Page 12 How do f join? It's easy.
