GOVERNING LEGISLATION: RCW 36.70A, RCW 36.70B.170-210 and SVMC 19.30.015 PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: On May 17, 2011, Council granted a 60-day extension for staff, applicant and Catholic Charities to finish preparing a development agreement and hold a public hearing associated with the proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA-02-11). BACKGROUND: CPA-02-11 is a privately initiated 2011 Comprehensive Plan Amendment requesting to change the property from Low Density Residential (LDR) to Medium Density Residential (MDR) with a subsequent rezone from Single-family Residential District (R-3) to Multi-family Medium Density Residential District (MF-1) on parcel 45174.2102. The proposed project concept is for a 40 unit affordable senior housing complex on 2.7 acres, following a boundary line adjustment of parcels 45174.2102 and 45174.2103. The Planning Commission recommended denial on March 10, 2011. On April 12, 2011, the City Council agreed to continue consideration of CPA-02-11 for a period of 30 days, as part of the 2011 annual Comprehensive Plan Amendment process and proceed with preparing a development agreement. Catholic Charities and Ann Martin of Heylman Martin Architect (applicant) on behalf of St. John Vianney Catholic Parish worked with representatives of the neighborhood in preparing a draft development agreement. A neighborhood representative notified parties they no longer wished to participate in drafting the development agreement. Catholic Charities expressed its willingness to continue to work with the City and proceed forward with review and finalization of a development agreement. Staff made a request to Council on May 17, 2011 for a 60-day extension to continue review and finalize the proposed agreement and bring before City Council for a public hearing. In the past 60 days, staff has coordinated with the owner and applicant regarding a proposed development agreement for Parcels 45174.2102 and 45174.2103 in association with the applicant's proposal to change Parcel 45174.2102 from Low Density Residential (LDR) to Medium Density Residential (MDR) with a subsequent rezone from R-3 to MF-1. Parcel 45174.2103 is already zoned MF-1. Catholic Charities, Ann Martin and staff are in agreement with the proposed development agreement. Staff presented an administrative report to Council on June 28, 2011 regarding the proposed development agreement. Council was presented with conceptual drawings representing the proposed building with relation to the neighborhood and consistency with the draft development agreement. Council was seeking clarity regarding the reason for pursuing the Comprehensive Plan Amendment as the drawings represent the proposed building located on the southerly parcel (45174.2103), which, as previously mentioned, is already zoned MF-1 and is not a part of the property being proposed for amendment. The applicant is seeking higher density on parcel 45174.2102 through a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to meet the density requirements for the proposed 40 unit affordable senior housing located on parcel 45174.2103. The proposal is to adjust the two parcels to obtain a minimum of 2.7 acres to meet the density requirements of the MF-1 zoning in association with residential density bonus. ANALYSIS: The proposed Comprehensive Plan amendment is being reviewed with the original applicant's proposal on Parcel 45174.2102, in association with a development agreement on Parcels 45174.2102 and 45174.2103 to allow restrictions to be placed on the proposed amendment minimizing the impacts of future development by providing a transition to the adjacent low density residential designation on the north, east and west of the proposed amendment. The intent of the development agreement is to apply more restrictive regulations on specific properties, which are in addition to the required standards adopted in the City's Municipal Code. The required standards include parking, landscaping, lighting, road dedication, frontage improvements and site drainage. The proposed restrictions agreed upon concerning the Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA- 02-11) are as follows; 1. The project shall abide by HUD Section 202 Affordable Housing Regulations, and must remain affordable senior housing for the entire period set forth in Section 2 below. 2. In addition to the 40 years mandated by current HUD 202 regulations, the Developer agrees to maintain the project as affordable senior housing, and only affordable senior housing for an additional 35 years after the expiration of the HUD 202 mandated time line, giving a total promise of 75 years for the project to remain affordable housing for seniors. 3. The number of units shall not exceed 40. 4. The building will have a well formed "base" and "top" element. The building base will provide form and definition to the neighborhood at a pedestrian-scale. The building's top will contribute to a distinctive skyline and overall massing that compliments the neighborhood. 5. Height massing elements shall be used to create a well formed base and top such as a cornice, canopy, shaped parapet, or facade offset to add visual interest and appropriately define the building. 6. Length massing elements shall be used to ensure that the horizontal appearance of the facade of the building is not excessively long in comparison with housing in the neighborhood. These length massing treatments can be achieved by facade offsets, pilaster/piers, or notches. 7. The project architects will design the building with base treatments on all visible sides of the building. The base element should be created at a height between 9 inches and 6 feet. 8. The facade composition facing Walnut Road and undeveloped Valleyway Avenue shall contain at least 20%, but no more than 80%, glazing in order to provide daylight into tenant space and a sense of openness to the residing neighborhood. Overall wall composition for side and rear walls does not have a minimum glazing requirement. 9. The main entrance will contribute to the neighborhood and pedestrian realm, building entrances shall be prominent and easy to identify. The main entrance shall be easily visible and recognizable, and shall be architecturally treated in a manner consistent with the building style and neighborhood. 10. Secondary entrances, such as side or rear building entries shall not be more architecturally prominent or larger than the front entry. 11. Loading and service entries shall not face primary streets when a secondary street, alley, or parking lot entrance location is possible. All service entrances and associated loading docks and storage areas shall be located to the side or rear of the building, and shall not face Walnut Street and proposed Valleyway Avenue. 12. The roof shall match the principle building in terms of style, detailing and materials. The roof shall be consistent with the overall character of the neighborhood. 13. All building mechanical equipment located on roofs shall be screened from view. 14. The developer will bring the roof height below the 40 feet height allowed in the MF- 1 zone, as well as providing single-story portions of the facility to the east and to the south. The goal of the project design is to incorporate residential scale and finish construction materials such as a brick veneer exterior or wood siding. Materials and design elements shall be consistent with the context of the surrounding neighborhood. 15. Developer will invite at least one neighborhood representative or resident to sit on the future housing project's "resident council." 16. Developer will preserve mature trees on the property and within the public right-of- way abutting said property as set forth on Exhibit A attached herein. Removal of any trees, not determined diseased or hazardous, shall be replaced with a minimum of a four inch caliper tree and shown on the proposed landscape plan. OPTIONS: Advance to motion consideration; or continue public hearing; or take other action deemed appropriate. RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Consensus to move forward on August 9, 2011 for a motion consideration for development agreement associated with CPA-02-11. BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: None.

Beginning with the Church and the Parish Offices Building: Required parking(Chapter 22.50 SVMC)for St. John Vianney Church, which is classified as an Auditoria'occupancy: 1 car pack per 150 sq. ft. of building. Current Church building is 17,400 SF,therefore, 17,400/150= 116 parking stalls req'd. Parish offices are classified as an `office'occupancy: 1 car park per 250 sq. ft. of bldg. Current Parish offices are 2,800 SF, therefore 2,800/250— 15 parking stalls req'd. 116 parking stalls required for Church +15 parking stalls required for Parish Offices 131 parking stalls required for Church and Parish Offices. Moving to the School and the School Auditoriuin: Required parking(Chapter 22.50 SVMC)for the school at St.John Vianney falls under the occupancy of`School(K--7)'which states the required parking is 2 car park spaces per classroom and 1 car park space per 2 employees.

Next, the gym at the school: Required parking(Chapter 22.50 SVMC)for the gymnasium at the school falls under the occupancy of Auditoria'which states required parking is 1 car park space per 150 sq. ft.

' The Table tells us that in the most conservative approach to the Shared Use Allowance,which would be Weekdays 7:00 am—6:00 pm,when the school is fully functioning,twenty-five percent of the school's required parking can be counted as shared,or in other words, deducted from the total required parking requirement for Church+Parish Offices+ School+School Gymnasium. Therefore: 208 spaces required minus 19 spaces designated as Shared Use Allowance = 189 stalls required. We have physically counted 233 parking stalls existing today. They are in the church parking lot and the school parking lots. 233 existing stalls - (189) required stalls 44 spare parking stalls. In summary: 189 stalls required for existing uses. 233 existing stalls. 44 spare stalls. Required parking spaces for proposed 40-unit Senior Housing Development. Per SVMC Table 22.50-2,the proposed Senior Housing Development falls within the occupancy of`Multifamily Dwellings. ' Studio units and 1 bedroom units require 1 parking space per dwelling unit,plus 5%of total dwelling units for guests. Therefore, 1 parking space per dwelling unit=40 parking spaces required. Add 5%of 40 total units= 2 additional units for guests 42 total parking stalls req'd for 40 unit Senior Housing Project In summary: 189 parking stalls required for existing uses +42 parking stalls required for future Senior Housing 231 parking stalls required for entire St. JV campus 233 parking stalls have been inventoried that currently exist. FINAL CONCLUSION: TWO EXTRA PARKING STALLS EXIST WITH CURRENT PLAN. NO ADDITIONAL STALLS REQUIRED. * PLEASE NOTICE THAT THE TWO-STORY PROPOSED DESIGN FOR THE PROJECT INCORPORATES ONE-STORY SECTIONS OF THE BUILDING BORDERING WALNUT RD. AND VALLEYWAY AVE. THE PROPOSED PROJECT PROVIDES A SIZEABLE OPENING TO AN INTERIOR COURTYARD, THEREBY PROVIDING TRANSPARENCY INTO THE PROJECT FOR NEIGHBORING RESIDENCES. ALL NEIGHBORING RESIDENCES ARE PORTRAYED ACCURATELY AND TO SCALE. .-13 RECEIVED JUN 1 2011 SPOKANE VALLEY DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY ITY D EVE LOPM EN` CONCEPTUAL PERSPECTIVE OF A PROPOSED 40-UNIT SENIOR HOUSING PROJECT ST.

Scott Kuhta,Planning Manager John Hohman, Senior Development Engineer John Whitehead,Human Resources Manager MaryKate McGee,Building Official Others Present: Rick VanLeuven,Police Chief Nina Culver, Spokesman Review Morgan Koudelka, Sr.Administrative Analyst Approximately eight citizens Michelle Rasmussen,Administrative Assistant Carolbelle Branch,Public Information Officer Deanna Griffith,Administrative Assistant Chris Bainbridge,City Clerk Mayor Towey opened the meeting at approximately 9:00 a.m., welcomed everyone to the meeting and explained that today's process is the first stage of the budget which lays the foundation for ultimate adoption of the 2012 budget, and said today is an exchange of ideas and not a debate. Mayor Towey welcomed new finance Director Mark Calhoun,and council and staff introduced themselves. BUSINESS PLAN OVERVIEW—Mike Jackson City Manager Jackson said that today is an opportunity for discussion in a relaxed environment;that some topics will take longer than others, and he will leave it up to Council to determine how much time to spend on each topic; and said the intent is to finish around 4:00 p.m. Mr. Jackson explained that as we did last year, Department Heads will walk everyone through their budget; he said questions should be freely asked, and said people should feel free to take a quick break when needed. Mr. Jackson said that this is our initial budget meeting and he has had previous discussions with the Finance Committee, and in a council packet a few weeks ago, he and Mr. Thompson provided a memo on the budget. Mr. Jackson directed everyone's attention to the information on the various whiteboards; said a lot of this information is repetitive from last year; that changes can be made throughout the day; and he discussed the various issues on the boards: Fiscal policies-Financial Management 1. maintain basic service levels with reduced resources 2. minimize personnel costs-overhead by continuing to contract for services 3. continue the 6-year business plan 4. leverage city funds with grant opportunities 5. minimize city debt with"pay as you go philosophy" Council Retreat:6-14-2011 Page 1 of 11 Approved by Council: Draft Financial objective: maintain minimum general fund ending fund balance of 15%thru 2015 Proposed 2012 commitments: 1. Today's budget worksheets are based on holding an increase in the general fund to a maximum 1% over the 2011 budget 2. fund new street capital fund program(Fund 311) Established in 2011 after 2010 books were reconciled Continue to set aside 40%of ending fund balance exceeding$26 million in each year after books are reconciled 3. Holding property tax revenues at 2011 level of$10,700,000 plus construction and delinquent taxes—so total assessment will not increase;but the rate could change Challenges: 1. funding the street preservation plan to maintain city roads 2. funding street capital projects 3. funding parks capital projects Mr. Jackson said this is a re-prioritization and that it looks like we will be able to match grants with REET funds, and that it is always a matter of balance as we need to be flexible in case other opportunities arise. Key Issues For Today's Discussion: Economic Development Plan: Mr.Jackson said Kathy McClung will talk about this later Street Preservation: Neil Kersten and Ken Thompson will discuss this Permit Center Potential Changes: with at least a perception of problems,Mr. Jackson said staff will have some perceptual changes to propose to see if council wants to pursue that issue Council Goals: revise,and develop new goals for 2012 to make sure we have funding for those goals Our General Direction 1. continue to contract 2. include 2.5% COLA for non-union employees. Mr. Jackson said this was discussed last year and this year the fmance committee agreed to have the cost of living increase for all staff. 3. continue to set aside funds for building and equipment replacement 4. Calendar year 2012 is not a"growth year"for expenditures or services. Mr. Jackson said that times are tough,but the City has been responsible in setting aside funds,which will be needed at some point. 5.Based on a formula instead of one-time allocations: When to use ending fund balance;when to pay it back 6. Let the economy take care of the balance of needs such as street preservation( i.e. 40% of the ending fund balance greater than$26 million equals funds for the street capital fund). Council 2012 goals Mr. Jackson said he will come back to the goals, but he wanted to point out some things in the business plan; he explained that the business plan helps to set the budget, and once the budget is adopted we need to make sure the plan conforms to the budget;he said we are always making changes as the document is a working document. Mr. Jackson said the program descriptions are located on page 5, and explained that we tried to put brief program descriptions together as an overview. Further, he explained that page 12 includes the fiscal politics which will eventually be updated; page 16 shows the financial forecast and program impact summary, and he said this page will not be found in the budget worksheets, but is only contained here in the business plan. Page 45, he said, shows the organization chart and that a similar chart is included for each department; adding that the business plan is a companion document to the budget. Mr. Jackson said Addendum B on page 101 contains the city's vision statement; and page 108 lists the council goals for 2011, and said we will discuss major goals for 2012 today, and that this draft enables us to provide resources to meet those goals. Council Retreat:6-14-2011 Page 2 of 11 Approved by Council: Draft BUDGET WORKSHEET OVERVIEW—Ken Thompson Finance Director Thompson noted two replacement pages: the first page in the notebook showing 2011 Operating Budgets: 2012 Operating Budget, and updated page under Public Works on the street fund, noting that those replacement pages are dated 6/10/11. Mr. Thompson explained that this notebook binder contains the line items of the operating budget, which is all the budgets that operate from the general fund, and the street and stormwater fund; that the final budget will have other line items, but we don't have a lot of say about many things such as path and trail funds, risk management, or debt service, which are regulated by laws. 1. General Government—Ken Thompson Mr. Thompson went over the pages included under tab 1 in the notebook binder,explaining that we have a total operating budget of $43,053,000; that general government is the place where items go if no department claims them; and he started at the top of the page explaining that in the past the contingency has been as high as $.5 million,but we have never used it and it could be used for such things as covering excessive snowfall, or to make up the difference in our reduced state share of funds. Mr. Jackson added that we like to view the budget not as a spending plan,but rather as a tool to anticipate what costs will be; he said department directors do not spend the funds because they are budgeted, but they spend the minimum necessary; and he noted on page 16 that we anticipate we will spend less than the budgeted amount; that the more we try to budget for actual expenses the smaller these numbers might become; that we could try to budget exactly and if we have overruns come back to council, or we could take the approach of budgeting a reasonable amount and depend on the department heads to spend as little as possible,which he said is what we have done in the past, adding that staff bears a lot of responsibility to keep spending down. Councilmember Grafos questioned if there is too much "blue sky"tendency for department heads to look at the figures halfway through the year and maybe find another use for unspent funds, and said the closer we can estimate the items the better. Councilmember Hafner asked why we consider we'll have $.5 million in surplus, and Mr. Thompson said that over the years we have always been well under that general fund budget amount, that the directors do a good job of putting in the amount they anticipate needing, and that we usually end up coming in under budget. Councilmember Hafner expressed that he doesn't feel good about having an access. Mr. Thompson explained that over the past years, and especially in those early years, revenues were coming in way above what was anticipated, and expenditures were always under what was budgeted, so we kept gaining funds in the general fund, and now eight years later, we don't have the excess revenues but we are making up the difference on the expenditure side, and reiterated that departments bring in their actual budgets under what was budgeted, but that likely won't go on forever since we getting squeezed. Mr. Thompson mentioned the broadcasting of council meetings was moved to the council's budget for 2012; that for the city-wide records management, at some point we will need to develop a list of procedures and policies so all departments handle documents in the same manner, and that those policies might take place in the current year if we have time to get that organized. Mr. Thompson also noted that per our lease, city hall rent goes up about 3% a year and said we have an estimated two years more on the lease;that the $30,000 for facility maintenance is tied to some potential changes in the permit center;that we have budgeted $75,000 for economic development as we know that is a priority for council and although there is no plan yet,we need funds to get that started; and he went over the others items listed on the general government budget worksheet. Councilmember Grassel asked Mr. Thompson to explain the interest transfers, and Mr. Thompson said that is the interest earnings we have on our investments,which is a small amount; and one of the big transfers we made last year was to transfer $.5 million from city facilities to cover full-width paveback. Councilmember Hafner asked if we are proposing a deputy city manager in this budget, and Mr. Jackson said the position is budgeted, but as he stated in the past, he would wait until 2012 to actually fill the position. Council Retreat:6-14-2011 Page 3 of 11 Approved by Council: Draft 2.Executive and Legislative Support—Mike Jackson City Manager Jackson highlighted the most notable changes and said that the category " publications" includes funds for purchasing publications,that there was $5,000 in 2011, and so far we have spent very little so the amount was reduced considerably; he said copier maintenance is difficult to track and we will focus more on that this year as a change in copier maintenance was a result of a change in departments over the year;he said the city manager's office is in a state of transition and while he doesn't expect to be able to attend as many conferences as in the past, he feels $2,000 is sufficient; he said an additional administrative assistant position was moved as we did not intend to fill it because we don't have a deputy city manager, and said he moved the administrative assistant from the deputy city manager to the city manager;but said if we were to fill the second administrative assistant, it would not occur until after mid- year. Regarding the increase in professional services,Mr. Jackson said he foresees there could be a need to use a professional firm such as what was used to assist in filling the city attorney and finance directors positions; adding that we are conducting the community development director vacancy in-house and will do likewise for the deputy city attorney; he said consultants bring a great deal of expertise, and we can't predict what changes might occur in the organization, and said if we don't need it, we won't spend it; adding that our philosophy is to budget so that we are not using staff or council time to repeatedly make changes for every unforeseen expense that might arise. Mr. Jackson said this fund covers the administrative assistant to the city manager, the city manager, city clerk, deputy city clerk, and administrative assistant for council. Mr. Jackson also mentioned that as we have time in the future, we could combine the business plan and the budget into one document which would have the added benefit of showing which positions are funded in each particular department. 3. City Attorney/Legal Support—Cary Driskell Although actually a part of executive support, it was noted that this section is separated for ease in awareness of those actual costs. City Attorney Driskell said this department has been in a state of flux over the past year with Mike Connelly's resignation; that he has used more interns this year and is working to get an accurate assessment on the full needs; and he noted that Mr. Connelly left in August which accounts in large part for the 2010 wages; that the workload requires the use of outside counsel at times, and said he anticipates that going down substantially but not completely as the workload and expertise cannot be covered with two in-house attorneys; and Mr. Driskell briefly went over the funding shown on the blue sheet. 4. Operations and Administration Services—Mike Jackson Mr. Jackson brought attention to page 35 of the business plan which shows the organization chart; he said the deputy city manager and administrative assistant are currently unfilled,but he intends to review that in 2012 and develop a proposal to provide the needed resources; he said there are not a lot of changes overall; the website support includes software licenses and maintenance, and the $16,000 represents the actual anticipated cost to maintain the new site and pay those license fees;he said all salaries are included in the budget but are not filled. Regarding the survey, Mr. Jackson said that is done every other year but we keep funds there so we can do additional work if needed, such as performing an economic development survey. In response to council question,Mr. Jackson said we are moving away from leasing copiers and into purchasing as purchasing has a better value. The meeting briefly recessed at 10:30 a.m. and reconvened at approximately 10:44 a.m. 5.Human Resources—John Whitehead Mr. Whitehead explained his expenses as shown, and said that training is for those sessions that all employees need and not just for those two employees in human resources. Discussion was held on training and travel including mention of lowered health care rates as a result of our wellness award; that $6,000 for harassment training is an anticipated need with remarks from Mr. Whitehead that he will Council Retreat:6-14-2011 Page 4 of 11 Approved by Council: Draft examine those figures including the $23,000 for travel,training and mileage to see if they can be reduced and said that there was little staff training conducted in 2010. 6.Finance and Information Technology(IT)—Ken Thompson Mr. Thompson said there are eleven positions in the budget but only ten are currently filled; that he will keep the extra position to allow for the possible future need in putting together the annual financial report; he said his department has been busier this year with broadcasting council meetings, and there is a new order of computers to set up and sync with the system, and said if IT(Information Technology) staff gets too busy,a temporary employee will be brought in to handle the help desk,which funds are located under professional services. Mr. Thompson noted his staff makes a bank deposit daily at three different banks, and the anticipated travel reimbursement needs are noted; and added that his three existing accountants were among those who did not receive a cost of living increase last year, and now that they are more experienced, he would not be surprised to lose some employees over the next few years; adding that lots of turnover is a problem as with loss of employees, you also lose that historical experience. Councilmember Hafner asked why the employee benefits were increased, and Mr. Thompson said he would be happy to check on that, and noted that there were also increases in retirement, and Labor and Industries costs;that medical insurance has remained consistent,and Mr. Jackson said that employees pay 40% of any cost increase over the original labor agreement. 7.Legislative—Mike Jackson/Council Mr. Jackson said that the employee benefits increased quite a bit from 2010 primarily due to health benefits and that it is unknown if future council will choose an individual or a family plan, and said he budgeted to have enough in case all new councilmembers desire the medical family plan; that as indicated earlier, broadcasting has now moved into the council budget; that travel should not have an impact on councilmembers' ability to attend conferences and Mr. Thompson said as the Mayor and Deputy Mayor tend to travel more than other councilmembers, they will likely ask other councilmembers for cost transfers.Mr.Jackson also explained the various acronyms under memberships. Possible 2012 Council Goals The following are the draft goals for 2012: 1. Goal for 2011: Continue monitoring wastewater issues, including governance of wastewater facilities, and pursuit of the most efficient and economical methods to ensure the continuation of wastewater discharge licenses. There were no objections from council to keep this as a goal for 2012. 2. Solid Waste: it was mentioned Council wants this as a primary goal. Mayor Towey suggested council begin addressing the issue of solid waste either this year or next and that we need to identify the issue, and get more information so council can examine all the alternatives of joining the consortium or handing it ourselves,and the consequences of each alternative. 3. Goal for 2011: Revisit and Evaluate regulations specified in the Sprague/Appleway Revitalization Plan as adopted and amended by City Council. Councilmember Woodard asked about the regulations and codes for development of businesses, and Mr. Jackson suggested perhaps replacing this goal from last year with a goal dealing with signage and landscaping regulations. This lead to discussion about reviewing all this city's regulations and comparing our regulations with those of outlying jurisdictions to determine if we are compatible with our surrounding regions; the idea of having one staff person review all regulations periodically; of the idea of changing ordinances that are not operating as stated; and mention by Councilmember Grafos that he feels this should be council's number one priority in 2012. It was determined the new #3 draft goal would be to review and evaluate development regulations and compare with surrounding cities. Mr. Jackson added that the topic of signage and landscaping will be on an upcoming council agenda. Council Retreat:6-14-2011 Page 5 of 11 Approved by Council: Draft 4. Goal for 2011: Develop a Shoreline Master Program to provide appropriate regulatory protection for waters of statewide significance as required by state statute. Community Development Director McClung mentioned they are just now working on goals and policies and the next phase will be the regulations,but those will not be addressed until 2012; and staff anticipates bringing goals and policies to council in the next few weeks. It was determined council will keep this as a goal for 2012. 5. Goal for 2011: Pursue a legislative capital budget request for state funding for the acquisition of parkland adjacent to the Park Road Pool. Councilmember Woodard asked where do we come up with the money to buy park lands, that we don't need to develop them immediately, but perhaps we should look at buying some land as he stated land is relatively cheap now. Mr. Jackson said that generally council will form five or six goals which will all carry equal weight instead of being prioritized; that they are not mutually exclusive and if you have park acquisition as a focus, it would not necessarily be a priority. Councilmember Hafner asked about road preservation and said we can't allow our roads to continue to deteriorate. Councilmember Gothmann said that road preservation was not developed prior to this as we were working on such things as maintenance, which includes plowing; that the previous council worked hard to find additional funds to take care of that and the 6% utility tax was one of those mechanisms to help fund maintenance; that now we can focus on road preservation, thereby building on the previous council's work. Mr. Jackson explained that such could be pursued as a legislative capital budget request as part of the annual procedure to prepare a legislative agenda; but could also be a goal if that is council's desire. No definitive statement was made regarding whether to keep this as a 2012 goal. 6. Goal for 2011: Develop and implement a multi year winter roads maintenance plan including availability, costs and effects of private sector vendors performing winter road maintenance for the City. Mr. Jackson stated that we have a plan now and there is no need to continue with this goal. 7. Goal for 2011: Explore a range of options for a City Hall. Mr. Jackson asked to keep this as a goal since our current lease expires in 2013; and Councilmember Grassel suggested perhaps making this a broader statement to be included under a goal to have a detailed economic development plan, which would include a city hall and infrastructure. There were no objections. The meeting stopped for lunch at 11:40 a.m.,and reconvened at approximately 12:30 p.m. Prioritization of Capital Projects—Ken Thompson Finance Director Thompson discussed potential capital projects including projects on the transportation improvement plan, funded projects, projects likely to be funded, and those not funded, adding that some of these projects will help with the street preservation issue. As a result of further discussion below, and assigning"dots" to indicate priorities,the following is the Councilmember's prioritization of the projects listed(red dot is highest priority,green dot is second priority): 1. TIP planned projects and/or projects currently without funding 2.New projects a.West gateway at Thierman$120,000 Vote: 2 green dots b.Mission Ave Trailhead$150,000 Vote: 1 red dot c University Appleway Landscaping$100,000 Vote: 1 green dot (push back barriers,improve the area's appearance) d. Park Road/Vista Rd Quiet Zone $907,000 Vote: 1 red dot 3. Street Preservation In the 2011 and 2012 budget together, Mr. Thompson said we now have about $1.8 million in that fund including the 40%transfer; and said council needs to determine whether to put in those projects; or some that aren't worth doing(a-d above). 4.none, Don't spend these $. 5.Appleway Landscaping -Park to University Vote: 2 green dots Council Retreat:6-14-2011 Page 6 of 11 Approved by Council: Draft 6. Sprague Swale Landscaping Vote:4 red, 1 green 7. Thierman Park Stormwater Councilmember Grafos said that the list is incomplete as it does not include the Sprague Stormwater project, and Mr. Thompson said that stormwater funds could be used for that project. Councilmember Grafos also asked about the Thierman to Park stormwater project of $630,000, and the Appleway landscaping $640,000 project and whether we have funds for those projects. Mr. Thompson responded that probably not all funds will be available immediately, but that these projects could be spread out over three years as we work to find a way to get them done. Mr. Jackson explained that we always have the option of not spending the money, or to wait until an economic development plan is completed before committing funds; and said the intent of this discussion is to start to look toward preservation, and spend the money at council's discretion. He said that we could put that in the budget or develop other funding ideas; and said that funding is not sustainable; that we could tap into the street fund and take it very close to zero in terms of an ending fund balance; but cautioned that it took a while to build up that fund and there is not a large chance that this is an ongoing funding source; but said we have a contingency of $500,000, and if we have a huge snowstorm, it would impact the street fund; that we can't repeat such a process of depleting those funds every year and must be very careful when it comes to spending the contingency,and suggested these funds be thought of as a one-time source of funds. Councilmember Woodard spoke of the entry into the city and said he felt we could get some assistance from the veteran's group for a veterans' memorial. Parks and Recreation Stone responded that he met with the veterans several times and they indicate they have no funding; that they'd love to see something happening in the entry location, but Mr. Stone said that location is bordered by two streets side by side, making it not very conducive to people getting out and visiting in that area.Mr. Stone said he offered his assistance in helping the veteran's take another look at an existing park; and said the veteran's group would love us to purchase property directly south of this and develop that into a park; and Mr. Stone estimated the purchase of such would be $600,000 to $700,000; but again stated that the veterans groups do not have any funding source to assist with any of that. Further discussion continued concerning some type of gateway or welcome sign. Other discussion included comment from Councilmember Grafos that he feels the $907,000 cost for the quiet zone is closer to $75,000,but Mr. Jackson said we need to realize the full price. Public Works Director Kersten added that to go through the entire process, including the design process, the cost would range between $600,000 and $900,000. Councilmember Grassel said she is not ready to vote on priorities as she doesn't recall the specifics; and Mr. Thompson said the funds wouldn't actually be allocated until or unless council acts on that this fall. Mr. Jackson also mentioned that the money could be held in these funds and not spent until a decision is made. Deputy Mayor Schimmels and Councilmember Grafos agreed on a need to move forward, with Councilmember Grafos commenting that one of the reasons we have no activity in the corridor is because of the way it looks. Councilmember Woodard asked about the status of the idea of us sharing in costs with Liberty Lake for a welcoming sign,and Mr.Jackson said council previously indicated they did not want to pursue that due to the high cost. To vote for project preference, most councilmembers placed dots next to projects listed above to indicate their priority, with red the highest priority, and green the second highest priority. See above for those results. Mr. Jackson said staff will put together a plan and council can make further decisions once they have an opportunity to review such a plan. 8. Community Development—Kathy McClung Community Development Director McClung distributed copies of an updated organization chart and said that the one in the business plan shows positions cut in last year's budget. Director McClung explained the department's budget and the breakdown of the four divisions, including which positions are included in each division. She mentioned the change in the copier maintenance was reduced by $10,000 to more closely reflect actual costs; said that professional services under development engineering also shows a Council Retreat:6-14-2011 Page 7 of 11 Approved by Council: Draft $20,000 reduction as staff is doing some of the services in-house; and she explained the corresponding costs associated with the shoreline management plan,and the building and code compliance publications. Concerning an economic development plan, Director McClung said staff has put together some conceptual ideas, including a draft scope of work, of how to work through the process if Council determines it wants a plan; she mentioned that an economic development plan could be part of the Comprehensive Plan but it doesn't have to be, and suggested that perhaps council discuss this during a future study session. Discussion among council and staff included a suggestion from Councilmember Woodard that perhaps a brainstorming session would be beneficial and expeditious so that development could be realized immediately instead of waiting for a year or two for something to actually get done; Councilmember Grafos stating that he would like staff to bring all options forward for what is available to help promote economic development, so council can look at those options and determine if there are resources to accomplish those issues, and perhaps have a consultant come speak to address the options so council can target the activity and make priorities. Councilmember Woodard suggested having some kind of relief to present to businesses to help them expand, and asked about the possibility of reducing regulations or tax consequences and having some type of private/public partnership; and Councilmember Hafner asked if we might have a staff person go out and find out what exactly businesses need and why they might be moving away. Director McClung said we do not have a staff person to do that but we do work with people who come to us, like in the example of the Hanson Company, and said we worked out ways to make the proposal work. The question of why Marie Calendar's was closing came up and Director McClung indicated that was a corporate decision. Councilmember Grafos brought up the issue of the sign ordinance and of the recent past issuing of tickets. Councilmember Gothmann stated that the difference between government and private business is, all citizens pay taxes including businesses, whereas in a business, companies can make quick decisions because it wouldn't involve all their customers; and said if you want changes, the city needs to provide a forum so businesses can come in to comment about needs. Mayor Towey agreed and said that needs to be set up right; and that there are some things we can do now, but Council needs to decide how to regulate and determine the pulse of the business community, and that we can't do that without business feedback and Councilmember Grafos asked if we could adjust some of the permit fees for new businesses, but Director McClung explained that we cannot, as that would be a gift of public funds. City Manager Jackson also said that those cannot be adjusted as it is a source of revenue for the city;but where we get a return on our investment is in trying to encourage the expansion of living wage jobs, which is more than retail business, and said staff spends quite a bit of time helping in that arena, and gave Pyrotech as a recent example;he said we are not standing still and it is not as if nothing is being done as there are many success stories, such as Car Max,Harley Davidson,and a new medical facility;he said we also have to be careful as it is hard to deal with an issue in the middle of a battle, and that you don't stop even when the economies improve as there is always the need to build a tax base. Council concurred to have staff bring forward options for further discussion so council can work to determine what the goals and objectives are to realize economic development. Mr. Jackson said that perhaps there are things we can do now, and added that perhaps economic development is more of a first priority than road preservation; and said there are limited resources and the state statutes also limit us on economic incentives;but that staff can bring all those ideas back for further discussion, even with the possibility of forming a committee once the problem is defined,so that ideas start moving. Mr. Jackson also noted that we can have the full council as the committee and address this topic at a study session; that we need to look at a range of options; and said that devoting resources to influence the economy is a major step, but that as we boost the economy, we boost revenues. Councilmember Hafner suggested having a list of what council can do; and Mr. Jackson said if council wants to provide such things as tax incentives, then council needs to give that direction and staff will take a hard look from the angle of the law and how it might apply; as well as look for legal ways to devote city resources to incentives. Councilmembers concurred with that plan. Council Retreat:6-14-2011 Page 8 of 11 Approved by Council: Draft Mayor Towey said he would like to start this as soon as possible, and Mr. Jackson said that signage is already on the July 5 council agenda. Councilmember Grassel said things to examine are the road blocks to business, like permitting and regulations; that perhaps a brainstorming session could be on short term economic strategies, and said she can think of about twenty items to discuss to improve Sprague, and suggested breaking that down into two separate items; one for long term and another for short term; and said she feels council can determine the short term strategies in about two hours, then have staff come back with plans; and that the long term could include city hall and infrastructure. Other discussion included mention from Councilmember Gothmann that a decision cannot be made until the businesses state the problem; comment from Councilmember Grafos that the problem is not just on Sprague; and further comment from Mayor Towey that something is needed for the entire city. Director McClung shared that within the last few weeks for our city, we saw 76,000 square feet of new office space; over 80,000 square feet of retail; 110,000 square feet of warehouse space, and about 208 residential units; and said that staff meets behind the scenes many times to help the application process, adding that there are quite a few other major projects coming our direction. Director McClung also mentioned that she is aware that the permit process is a high priority for council and they have made a lot of process changes,with some things not as visible but which still help expedite different types of applications; that there has been a lot of training; all staff went to customer service training, and she met with staff afterwards to discuss what that training means; that there will always be ways to improve, and she mentioned that a major impediment to getting the permit process is that the department is split, thereby limiting more instant communication; and said she feels there would be a better sense of what is going on if the managers and directors were not separated from the permit center; and said if council is interested in pursuing the idea, she has thought about having finance trade places with the permit center and create an entry way from the parking lot to the permit center. City Manager Jackson said he supports this idea of having the department closer, but has not looked at the cost and wanted to get council's general opinion. Council concurred. There was also some discussion about the actual permit process and that the department has weekly permit meetings to discuss applications. Mr. Jackson said staff will move ahead with the plans to physically consolidate the department. The meeting recessed at 2:25 and reconvened at 2:40 p.m. 9.Parks and Recreation -Mike Stone Director Stone went over his six divisions as shown on the business plan on page 69; and discussed the figures shown in the agenda; adding that his depattutent also manages several contracts including the aquatics contract, parks maintenance, and janitorial services at CenterPlace and for the facilities and grounds at the police precinct. It was noted that the benefits appear to be lower in Parks and recreation, and since benefits went up across the board,Mr. Jackson said that finance will take a closer look at those figures. Mr. Stone said it has been five years since the Parks and Recreation MasterPlan was developed so it is time to review that as well. Mr. Stone mentioned the maintenance contract with Senske will increase in 2012 as Greenacres Park is added to the inventory, and said that normally his department comes in well below budget. Mr. Stone reminded everyone that they recover 100% of the cost of their recreation programs, and said that Mr. Jackson had made a decision we would not be involved in social media like Facebook due to cost and oversight issues, and if social media were added, resources would also need to be addressed. Since taking registrations on-line,Mr. Stone said those figures are probably up about 50%. Aquatics fees remain at $1.00 per swim, and Mr. Stone said Spokane Valley Partners can distribute free passes for those individuals in need, and said that the scholarship program remains a very popular program; and said that this program is not self-sustaining as aquatics is the highest expense we have insofar as not being able to recover costs. Mr. Stone mentioned the Senior Center has one highly capable person as the senior center specialist; that that budget is basically status-quo and up slightly only because of the increase in benefits; and he explained some of the issues contained in the arrangement we have with the Senior Center. Further Mr. Stone explained that CenterPlace is open eighteen hours a day, seven days a week as they endeavor to remain open as much as possible to be available to citizens; that Council Retreat:6-14-2011 Page 9 of 11 Approved by Council: Draft the staff is supplemented with hosts who are temporary seasonal employees who mostly work evenings and weekends. Advertising for CenterPlace was also discussed and Mr. Stone said it is probably time to update their marketing plan, as it hasn't been updated in four years. After Mr. Stone went over some of the other figures, Councilmember Grafos said if the marketing plan and the chair replacement for one year were eliminated, and if the budget were tightened up further he feels more funds could be found without cutting any other programs; and Mr. Stone said the budget would have been met if Greenacres Park had not been added; and council agreed they felt it worthwhile to stay as is. The lack of signage for CenterPlace was also mentioned. 10.Public works—Neil Kersten Public Works Director Kersten reviewed page 10 in the business plan, and explained that he would like to add two additional staff positions during the winter for snow plowing so that there would be one city person on each shift to run with the contractor; that he had originally proposed full time employees who would take over some of the summer operations as well, which seemed more cost efficient, however, he explained that the Finance Committee preferred to not add additional full time staff; and Mr. Kersten mentioned there are safety issues associated with long hours of working on the snow plows. Mr. Kersten said that the year 2010 was the first year of being able to recognize the phone utility tax,and that between the phone tax and the gas tax, the revenue for this fund is estimated at just under$5 million. Mr. Kersten said if we stay with this budget, it will consume the fund balance and in a year or two there won't be any fund balance; and said he would not recommend that course of action now. He explained that we still have the old snow plows and they are working, but they are old; he said memberships of$37,480, which is associated with Spokane Regional Transportation Council, were moved into the street fund. Mr. Kersten also discussed the plow replacement line item, said that for the stormwater fund, residents pay a flat fee and we are about the lowest fee in the state; that state law mandates we have funds in the APA (Aquifer Protection Area); and said now that sewers are complete revenues will come to Spokane Valley, but we can only use those for projects where water quality would be improved; that they are converting the drywells to swales;and said of the 8,000 drywells,most are not protected. 11.Public Safety-Rick VanLeuven and Morgan Koudelka Senior Administrative Analyst Koudelka went over the figures associated with public safety contracts; said they are not proposing any reductions, but that he wanted to discuss some of the trends in public safety; and said they are putting together some performance measures since the County found it necessary to make reductions on their side; he said we want to measure the performance in our department over time, so that if those services are added back, we can address the issue from a Spokane Valley perspective. Mr. Koudelka explained that we see a big savings in law enforcement of$375,000,but also a large increase in detention and district court,with an overall 2.5% increase; and that to maintain the goal of 1%from the previous year,the contingency was reduced. He said that projections for law enforcement costs have an annual growth rate of about 3.5%, and looking to the future in 2013, if we apply that percentage, we will be about $500,000 short; and he mentioned if the trends continue with us holding increases to 1% and outside costs increasing 3.5%, that would be a substantial amount and would not be sustainable.Mr. Jackson said there are various options we try to use to hold new contracts costs down,but in law enforcement, a slight reduction in the sheriff's side in shared resources affects us, so we want to be careful of the impact on services over time. Police Chief VanLeuven then distributed copies of the performance measures and workload indicators, and discussed pages 87-98 in the draft business plan, including staffing levels; mentioned that the Public Safety CryWolf program is very successful and for 2010, it generated about $150,000 with a cost of $40,000 to implement, not to mention the reduction in the false alarms which frees officers to other duties; and said he works closely with Mr. Koudelka and Mr. Jackson to ensure objectives are met for Spokane Valley. Chief VanLeuven said traffic complaints are the highest and most common complaint, and they evaluate those and most times discover the complaint is due to other mitigating factors; and said that he worked closely with Public Works concerning the intersection of Argonne and Indiana where Council Retreat:6-14-2011 Page 10 of 11 Approved by Council: Draft regular serious collisions were occurring, but since the intersection has been blocked off, there has not been an injury accident. Mayor Towey thanked staff for today's information, and thanked everyone for coming. There being no further business,the meeting adjourned at 4:40 p.m. ATTEST: Thomas E.Towey,Mayor Christine Bainbridge,City Clerk Council Retreat:6-14-2011 Page 11 of 11 Approved by Council: DRAFT MINUTES City of Spokane Valley City Council Regular Meetings Formal Meeting Format Tuesday,June 14,2011 Mayor Towey called the meeting to order at 6:00 p.m. Attendance: City Staff Tom Towey,Mayor Mike Jackson,City Manager Gary Schimmels,Deputy Mayor Cary Driskell,City Attorney Bill Gothmann,Councilmember Ken Thompson,Finance Director Dean Grafos,Councilmember Rick VanLeuven,Police Chief Brenda Grassel,Councilmember Mike Stone,Parks&Recreation Director Chuck Hafner,Councilmember Neil Kersten,Public Works Director Arne Woodard,Councilmember Micki Harnois,Associate Planner Carolbelle Branch,Public Information Officer Chris Bainbridge,City Clerk INVOCATION: Pastor John Vanderwalker of Community of Christ Church gave the invocation.

Street Vacation Proposal, STV 01-11 —Micki Harnois Associate Planner Harnois went over the PowerPoint presentation explaining the street vacation proposal request from the Fire Department and also on behalf of property owner Washington State Department of Transportation; after which Planner Harnois asked if there were any objections to bringing this on for a first reading June 28,and council had no objections. 5. Sprague Avenue,One-way vs. Two-Way—Neil Kersten,Cary Driskell,Mike Jackson City Manager Jackson explained that August 16 is the deadline for placing items on the November ballot at an estimated cost of$10,000 to $15,000; he mentioned the cost estimate for the traffic modeling and Council Regular Meeting 06-14-2011 Page 3 of 4 Approved by Council: DRAFT that it would take about three months to complete; and suggested the traffic model is the mechanism to give any certainty that the configuration would work, and said a level of service study is also recommended. Council/staff discussion included whether to conduct the study prior to the ballot; specifying the ballot language to include a funding measure so the public would know the intentions of such a measure; whether to only have an advisory ballot; which cost estimates to use and which enhancements or beautifications to include, such as landscaping, others, or none; that without a traffic modeling study, we would not know if the design would be feasible and practical; the need to consult with bond counsel; mention that this item is scheduled for further discussion June 28th, and that it would not be fair to the public to take this issue to ballot unless we have figures and know exactly what problem we are trying to solve. Councilmember Gothmann said he agrees with Ms. Kaley that we didn't ask for a public vote on any other public transportation project and should not do so on this issue. Councilmember Grafos agreed with the statement of unnecessary delays,but said it is time to put this on the ballot and let the public decide. Mayor Towey agreed this issue has divided the city and said Council needs to look at the business community and determine what we can do to help them, but to keep in mind Council has an obligation to all citizens; and said he would like to see this brought forward with more information and then make a decision. Deputy Mayor Schimmels added that he would support a ballot measure if we had the cost information, and the results of the modeling study and all facts. Councilmember Grassel said she supports getting additional information to look at options; that some of the businesses weren't complaining about the road direction as much as the signs, and said we have to be careful when framing this issue. Councilmember Hafner said council needs to look at the whole scene and the bottom line is,to make a decision of what's best and to do that, a study is needed, and said he wants such a study prior to making a decision; that he feels people won't vote to go back to two-way and if we ask them to spend money, they'll vote against it, but at least they would have had a say in the matter. Mayor Towey said it appears there is consensus to move ahead and get information,and come back June 28th for a decision. 6.Advance Agenda—Mayor Towey Deputy Mayor Schimmels commented about a phone call concerning receiving information from ITA (International Trade Alliance); and Mayor Towey mentioned he also received a request from them to set up a meeting with council; that a concern was whether to have a representative of ITA give a presentation before Council during a council meeting, or to include updates in the council packet as an informational item; and it was determined it would be best to have the materials included in the council packet for all councilmembers to review. Mayor Towey said he will advise them of this decision. Information Only The Comcast Internet for Low Income Families, Broadway Avenue Safety Project #0063, and Indiana Sullivan Concrete Intersection Project#0113 agenda items were for information only and were not discussed or reported. It was moved by Deputy Mayor Schimmels, seconded and unanimously approved to adjourn. The meeting adjourned at 7:41 p.m. ATTEST: Thomas E.Towey,Mayor Christine Bainbridge,City Clerk Council Regular Meeting 06-14-2011 Page 4 of 4 Approved by Council: CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY Request for Council Action Meeting Date: July 12,2011 City Manager Sign-off: Item: Check all that apply: n consent n old business [Z]new business n public hearing n information n admin report n pending legislation AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Second Reading of proposed ordinance 11-012 to vacate a portion of Eastern Road. GOVERNING LEGISLATION: RCW 35.79 et seq., RCW 58.17.212 and Section 22.140 of the Spokane Valley Municipal Code. Spokane Valley Resolution 07-009. BACKGROUND: On April 26, 2011, City Council adopted Resolution 11-004 setting a public hearing date for May 26, 2011 for the proposed street vacation. The Planning Commission conducted the public hearing as scheduled on May 26,2011 and voted 6-0 to recommend conditional approval of STV-01-11. The City Council held a study session on June 14,2011 where a consensus was to forward the proposal to a first reading. The first reading of Ordinance 11-012 was held on June 28, 2011 in which the Council moved to advance the street vacation proposal to a 2nd reading. During the June 28 council meeting, at the request of Spokane Valley Deputy Fire Chief Larry Rider, Council determined that because this vacation will better serve the public, that Council would deviate from the charging criteria of Resolution 07-009 and not assess the vacation fee. The applicant, Spokane Valley Fire Department and also on behalf of the property owner Washington State Department of Transportation, requests the vacation of a portion of Eastern Road(83 feet in length by 30 feet wide). The street is located approximately 330 feet west of the intersection of 1St Avenue and Dyer Road and further located between Parcel# 35242.0407 (north), Parcel#35242.9004 (northwest) and state right-of-way to the west and Parcel#35242.0408(east). Eastern Road was originally dedicated as part of the Taylors Resurvey Millers Park Addition. Approximately 114 feet of Eastern Road was vacated in 1960 by Spokane County at the intersection of Sprague Avenue and Eastern Road for the construction of the fire station. Page 1 Prepared on July 5,2011 Ye >YJ .f -1 ma. � ..- v . e �� I ADM I A - .ti is -- ly'a FW The Planning Commission made the following findings as part of their recommendation to City Council: 1. The vacation of the street will better serve the public because it will allow more space to rebuild a larger fire station for Spokane Valley Fire Department on the same site which has proven to be the best location for the citizens. 2. The northern half of Eastern Road was vacated in the 1960s to build the existing fire station. The southern half of Eastern Road has a dead end with no turnaround. This portion of the street is no longer required for public use or public access. The street cannot access Sprague Avenue to the north and access is prohibited on Interstate 90 to the west. The City of Spokane Valley Public Works Department requests that the 50 feet of right-of-way north of the intersection of 1st Avenue and Eastern Road not be vacated so it can be used as a turnaround for vehicles and equipment. 3. The substitution of a new and different public way would not better serve the public as the existing right-of-way dead ends and does not go through. 4. Given the present age and condition of adjacent development, it is unlikely that conditions will change in the future to provide a greater use or need than presently exists. There are no plans for future use of the right-of-way and there is very little space and no traffic uses it. 5. The vacated property is wholly within the above described parcels and title shall vest in those parcels on the north and east boundaries of the vacated roadway. 6. No objections have been received to the proposed vacation from the notice of public hearing and/or routing to staff and agencies. 7.

WHEREAS,an application for vacation was filed on January 18,2011,and was determined complete on March 25,2011,and WHEREAS,the City Council by Resolution 11-004 set a public hearing date for May 26,2011, with the Planning Commission; and WHEREAS,the Planning Commission held a public hearing on May 26,2011;and WHEREAS, following a hearing, the Planning Commission found that the notice and hearing requirements of the applicable Spokane Valley Municipal Code section 22.140.020 have been met;and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission findings and/or minutes have been filed with the City Clerk as part of the public record supporting the vacation; and WHEREAS, none of the property owners abutting the property to be vacated filed a written objection to the proposed vacation with the City Clerk;and WHEREAS, through adopted City Code provisions, the City shall provide that the vacated property be transferred to Parcel # 35242.9004, 35242.0407 and 35242.0408; that a letter dated April 8, 2011 was submitted by Washington State Department of Transportation that states that it waives its interest in having one-half of the Eastern Road right-of-way, that the zoning district designation of the properties adjoining the street shall attach to the vacated property; that a record of survey shall be submitted to the Director of Community Development; and that all direct and indirect costs of title transfer to the vacated street be paid by the proponent or recipient of the transferred property;and WHEREAS, the vacated roadway is wholly contained within the parcels dedicated above and created pursuant to Taylors Resurvey Millers Park Addition Plat. WHEREAS, the City Council desires to vacate the above street pursuant to Spokane Valley Municipal Code Section 22.140. NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Spokane Valley, Spokane County, Washington,do ordain as follows: Section 1. Findings of Fact. The City Council makes the following findings of fact: 1. The vacation of the street will better serve the public because it will allow more space to rebuild a larger fire station for Spokane Valley Fire Department on the same site which has proven to be the best location for the citizens. Based on this finding, deviation from the charging criteria of Resolution 07-009 is appropriate and no charges other than those set forth herein are required. 2. The northern half of Eastern Road was vacated in the 1960's to build the existing fire station. The southern half of Eastern Road has a dead end with no turnaround. This portion of the street is no longer required for public use or public access. The street cannot access Sprague Avenue to the north and access is prohibited on Interstate 90 to the west. The City of Spokane Valley Public Works Department requests that the 50 feet of right-of-way north Ordinance 11-012-Street Vacation STV-01-11 Page 1 of 4 DRAFT of the intersection of 1St Avenue and Eastern Road not be vacated so it can be used as a turnaround for vehicles and equipment. 3. The substitution of a new and different public way would not better serve the public as the existing right-of-way dead ends and does not go through. 4. Given the present age and condition of adjacent development, it is unlikely that conditions will change in the future to provide a greater use or need than presently exists. There are no plans for future use of the right-of-way as there is very little space and no traffic uses it. 5. The vacated property is wholly within the above described parcels, and title shall vest in those parcels on the north and east boundaries of the vacated roadway. 6. No objections have been received to the proposed vacation following the notice of public hearing and/or routing to staff and agencies. 7. Qwest is the provider for telephone/fiber optics, and they sent a notification that they have a conduit structure located in the area to be vacated. There are currently no drainage facilities located in the right-of-way. The specific location of any existing utility easements is a requirement of the record of survey which will be prepared for boundary line eliminations. Section 2. Property to be Vacated. Based upon the above findings and in accordance with this Ordinance, the City Council does hereby vacate the street or alley which is incorporated herein by reference,and defined as follows: That portion of Eastern Road per the plat of Taylors Resurvey Millers Park Addition as recorded in Book "K"of plats,page 32, lying westerly of the north half of Lot 10 of Block 8 of said plat and easterly of the southeast portion of the east 160 feet of NW'/of NW'/ lying south and east of PSH 2 and easterly of the public right of way east of Interstate 90. Section 3. Division of Property to be Vacated. Pursuant to RCW 35.79.040 and SVMC 22.140.040(C), factual circumstances dictate a different division and distribution of the street to be vacated to Parcel# 35242.0407, 35242.0408 and 35242.9004, thus the property to be vacated shall be divided as recorded in the record of survey which shall be created and recorded with the County as required under Section 22.140.090 SVMC.

City of Spokane Valley Eligible Amount: $34,812 Match Required: None Award Period: Awards are made in the first fiscal year of the appropriation and may be expended during the following 3 years, for a total grant period of 4 years. Summary: The Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program (42 U.S.C. 3751(a)) is the primary provider of federal criminal justice funding to state and local jurisdictions. JAG funds support all components of the criminal justice system, from multijurisdictional drug and gang task forces to crime prevention and domestic violence programs, courts, corrections, treatment, and justice information sharing initiatives. JAG-funded projects may address crime through the provision of services directly to individuals and/or communities and by improving the effectiveness and efficiency of criminal justice systems, processes, and procedures. Purpose Areas: JAG funds may be used for state and local initiatives, technical assistance, training, personnel, equipment, supplies, contractual support, and criminal justice information systems for criminal justice that will improve or enhance such areas as: • Law enforcement programs. • Prosecution and court programs. • Prevention and education programs. • Corrections and community corrections programs. • Drug treatment and enforcement programs. City of Spokane Valley—JAG Grant June 28,2011 Page 2 of 4 • Planning, evaluation, and technology improvement programs. • Crime victim and witness programs (other than compensation). Note: The authorizing statute for the JAG Program provides that funds are to be used for the purposes above and notes that these purposes include all of the purposes previously authorized under the Edward Byrne Memorial State and Local Assistance Program (Byrne Formula) and the Local Law Enforcement Block Grant Program (LLEBG). This provision may be useful to applicants in understanding all of the allowable uses under the above purpose areas. For example, relying on this provision, it can be understood that the JAG Purpose Area "Prosecution and court programs" listed above, provides the states and local units of government with the authority to fund defender, judicial, pretrial, and court administration efforts as well as prosecution programs. For a listing of prior Byrne Formula and LLEBG purpose areas, see www.oip.usdoi.gov/BJA/grant/byrnepurpose.html. Although these two programs have been eliminated, their prior purpose areas may be useful in appreciating the scope of the JAG purpose areas. Priorities Identified by the Department of Justice: Violent Crime Counterterrorism Indigent Defense Alternatives to Incarceration Smart Policing — Evidence-based and data-driven law enforcement Economic Crimes Offender Re-entry Crimes Against Children Responsibilities: The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of an eligible unit of local government or other officer designated by the CEO must submit the application for JAG funds. A unit of local government receiving a JAG award will be responsible for the administration of the funds including: distributing the funds; monitoring the award; submitting quarterly financial status (SF-425) and performance metrics reports and annual programmatic reports; and providing ongoing oversight and assistance to any sub recipients of the funds. City of Spokane Valley Expenditures: 1) $16,250 - NIBRS implementation will cost approximately $65,000 regionally for Spokane County. This breaks down to $32,500 being paid by Spokane Police Dept, and $32,500 split evenly between Spokane Co Sheriffs Office and Spokane Valley Police Dept ($16,250/ea). NIBRS is an incident-based reporting system used by law enforcement as a standardized format for collecting and reporting data on crimes. It allows access and provides cross- jurisdictional, agency-wide data sharing and administrative applications for investigative uses. It is mandated by the Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs that every county in the State of Washington will use this system of reporting by 1/1/2012. The funds being requested will provide the necessary upgrade to our current Expeditor program, to implement NIBRS reporting as mandated. City of Spokane Valley—JAG Grant June 28,2011 Page 3 of 4 2) $10,318 Continued funding of the aircards to maintain the service for the Spokane Valley Police Department's subcompact rugged computers so they will be active for in-field use. These aircards create secure, encrypted wireless data connections that enable law enforcement in the field to complete information systems searches necessary to their job duties. (quantity=20, currently paying $42.99/mo/aircard) 3) $8,244 -Target ammunition to be used during quarterly law enforcement firearms training. The goal is to increase public safety and protection through increased law enforcement training, which relates to the objective of increased firearm proficiency. These trainings are mandatory for every law enforcement officer at the Spokane Valley Police Department and will result in improved accuracy and confidence among staff. The public benefits through increased safety in the event an officer needs to discharge a weapon in the performance of duties. Administrative Funds: A unit of local government may use up to 10 percent of the award, plus any interest accrued, for costs associated with administering JAG funds. Tentative Timeline: June 28: Information item presented to Council with details of award July 5: Administrative Report to Council identifying proposed expenditures July 12: Motion Consideration by Council, authorizing City Manager to apply for JAG grant July 21: Apply for grant (with Council approval). Prohibited Uses: No JAG funds may be expended outside of JAG purpose areas. Even within these purpose areas, however, JAG funds cannot be used directly or indirectly for security enhancements or equipment for nongovernmental entities not engaged in criminal justice or public safety. Nor may JAG funds be used directly or indirectly to provide for any of the following matters unless BJA certifies that extraordinary and exigent circumstances exist, making them essential to the maintenance of public safety and good order: • Vehicles (excluding police cruisers), vessels (excluding police boats), or aircraft (excluding police helicopters). • Luxury items. • Real estate. • Construction projects (other than penal or correctional institutions). • Any similar matters. Non-Supplanting: Federal funds must be used to supplement existing funds for program activities and cannot replace or supplant nonfederal funds that have been appropriated for the same purpose. Supplanting is prohibited under JAG. Reporting Requirements: Once an award is accepted, award recipients must submit quarterly financial status (SF-425) and annual performance reports through GMS (https://grants.ojp.usdoj.gov).

Please see the "How to Apply" section, page 6, for more details. Eligibility Please refer to the cover page of this solicitation for eligibility under this program. JAG Program—Specific Information Formula Once each fiscal year's overall JAG Program funding level is determined, BJA partners with the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) to begin a four step grant award calculation process which consists of: 1. Computing an initial JAG allocation for each state and territory, based on their share of violent crime and population (weighted equally). 2. Reviewing the initial JAG allocation amount to determine if the state or territory allocation is less than the minimum ("de minimus") award amount defined in the JAG legislation (0.25 percent of the total). If this is the case, the state or territory is funded at the minimum level, and the funds required for this are deducted from the overall pool of JAG funds. Each of the remaining states receives the minimum award plus an additional amount based on their share of violent crime and population. 3. Dividing each state's final award amount (except for the territories and District of Columbia) between state and local governments at a rate of 60 and 40 percent, respectively. Determining local unit of government award allocations, which are based on their proportion of the state's three-year violent crime average. If a local eligible award amount is less than $10,000, the funds are returned to the state to be awarded to these BJA-2011-3031 OMB No 1121-0329 4 Approval Expires 02/28/2013 local units of government through the state agency. If the eligible award amount is $10,000 or more, then the local government is eligible to apply for a JAG award directly from BJA. Award Amount Eligible award amounts under JAG are posted annually to BJA's JAG web page: www.oip.usdoi.gov/BJA/grant/iaq.html. All awards are subject to the availability of appropriated funds and any modifications or additional requirements that may be imposed by law. Purpose Areas JAG funds may be used for state and local initiatives, technical assistance, training, personnel, equipment, supplies, contractual support, and criminal justice information systems for criminal justice that will improve or enhance such areas as: • Law enforcement programs. • Prosecution and court programs. • Prevention and education programs. • Corrections and community corrections programs. • Drug treatment and enforcement programs. • Planning, evaluation, and technology improvement programs. • Crime victim and witness programs (other than compensation). Note: The authorizing statute for the JAG Program provides that funds are to be used for the purposes above and notes that these purposes include all of the purposes previously authorized under the Edward Byrne Memorial State and Local Assistance Program (Byrne Formula) and the Local Law Enforcement Block Grant Program (LLEBG). This provision may be useful to applicants in understanding all of the allowable uses under the above purpose areas. For example, relying on this provision, it can be understood that the JAG Purpose Area "Prosecution and court programs" listed above, provides the states and local units of government with the authority to fund defender, judicial, pretrial, and court administration efforts as well as prosecution programs. For a listing of prior Byrne Formula and LLEBG purpose areas, see www.oip.usdoi.gov/BJA/grant/byrnepurpose.html. Although these two programs have been eliminated, their prior purpose areas may be useful in appreciating the scope of the JAG purpose areas. JAG funds may also be used to address key statutory requirements that may not be otherwise funded, including requirements from the state and federal level, such as addressing limited English proficiency requirements and other similar mandates. Priorities BJA recognizes that the downturn in the economy has resulted in significant pressures on state and local criminal justice systems. In these challenging times, shared priorities and leveraged resources can make a significant impact. In light of this, it is important to make SAAs and local JAG recipients aware of several areas of priority that may be of help in maximizing the effectiveness of the Byrne JAG funding at the state and local level. BJA-2011-3031 OMB No.1121-0329 5 Approval Expires 02/28/2013 As an overall framework for success, we encourage both state and local comprehensive justice planning, bringing all of the system stakeholders together, including law enforcement, courts, prosecutors, defenders, corrections officials, and other stakeholders to create a comprehensive and strategic justice plan to ensure coordination and a more effective justice system. As a part of this strategic planning process, we strongly encourage state and local planners to consider programs that are evidence-based and have been proven effective; in a difficult budgetary climate, it is critical that dollars are spent on programs whose effectiveness is proven. However, we recognize that state and local programs can also be excellent laboratories for innovative programs that can be models for other states and localities addressing difficult problems. BJA has made resources available to SAAs and others to provide training and technical assistance in identifying and using evidence-based practices as the outcome of a comprehensive and strategic justice plan in the state or local community. We also strongly encourage SAAs and local recipients to use JAG funding to support, replicate and expand strategic efforts to assess system cost drivers and to make appropriate policy changes that can reduce system costs while not jeopardizing public safety. These efforts include justice reinvestment and court reengineering as well as others. In addition to these overarching considerations and in addition to our longstanding and unwavering commitment to keeping violent crime at its lowest level in decades, the following priorities represent key areas where we will be focusing nationally and invite each state to join us in addressing these challenges as a part of our JAG partnership. Counterterrorism and Information Sharing/Fusion Centers A key priority for DOJ and, indeed, the entire Administration, is effective counterterrorism and terrorism prevention programs. We recognize that state and local law enforcement are critical partners in detecting, identifying, preventing, and disrupting acts of violence against the United States by both domestic and international extremist organizations. Preventing terrorism remains the first goal of DOJ's strategic plan and remains a priority for BJA. A key priority of the National Strategy on Information Sharing for preventing terrorism includes support for State and Major Urban Area fusion centers (fusion centers) to address gaps in achieving full implementation of Global's Baseline Capabilities for fusion centers. Through the partnership of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and DOJ the support for these fusion centers also enhances a state's response to "all crimes" by improving information sharing and coordination with local law enforcement agencies. Evidence-Based Programs or Practices OJP considers programs and practices to be evidence-based when their effectiveness has been demonstrated by causal evidence (generally obtained through one or more outcome evaluations). Causal evidence documents a relationship between an activity or intervention (including technology) and its intended outcome, including measuring the direction and size of a change, and the extent to which a change may be attributed to the activity or intervention. Causal evidence depends on the use of scientific methods to rule out, to the extent possible, alternative explanations for the documented change. The strength of causal evidence, based on the factors described above, will influence the degree to which OJP considers a program or practice to be evidence-based. BJA-2011-3031 OMB No.1121-0329 6 Approval Expires 02/28/2013 Economic Crime As our economy shows signs of recovery, it is essential that we not allow this progress to be thwarted by economic crime, including mortgage fraud, financial crimes, fraud, and intellectual property crimes that threaten our economic growth and stability. Reentry and Smart Probation In order to lessen the burden on what has been described as an overreliance on incarceration, it is essential that those who have served time can transition back into the community and into crime-free pro-social lives. To do this, we will emphasize smart and effective approaches to offender reentry and will support statewide and local efforts in justice reinvestment, which reduces costly spending on incarceration and reinvests a portion of the savings into other areas of the justice system without sacrificing accountability. Indigent Defense Another key priority area is ensuring that justice is truly done in the criminal justice system—the Attorney General has consistently stressed that the crisis in indigent defense reform is a serious concern of his, a concern which is shared by OJP and BJA. As a former prosecutor and judge, however, the Attorney General is also acutely aware that without adequate funding for the courts, prosecution, problem-solving courts, and other innovative, cost-saving alternatives to incarceration, true justice cannot be achieved. Children Exposed To Violence Last, but certainly not least, we must ensure that, in the context of our continued focus on addressing violent crime, children who are exposed to violence are responded to effectively so that these experiences do not risk the futures of these children and do not fuel the cycle of violence. These priorities and others will be the focus of our efforts during FY 2011, and we invite you as a partner and grantee to join us in our efforts to address these critical issues. Interoperable Communications Grantees (including sub-grantees) that are using FY 2011 JAG Program funds to support emergency communications activities should comply with the FY2011 SAFECOM Guidance for Emergency Communication Grants, including provisions on technical standards that ensure and enhance interoperable communications. Emergency communications activities include the purchase of Interoperable Communications Equipment and technologies such as voice-over- internet protocol bridging or gateway devices, or equipment to support the build out of wireless broadband networks in the 700 MHz public safety band under the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Waiver Order. SAFECOM guidance can be found at www.safecomprogram.gov. Grantees interested in developing a public safety broadband network in the 700 MHz band in their jurisdictions must adhere to the technical standards set forth in the FCC Waiver Order, or any succeeding FCC orders, rules, or regulations pertaining to broadband operations in the 700 MHz public safety band. The recipient shall also ensure projects support the Statewide Communication Interoperability Plan (SCIP) and are fully coordinated with the full-time Statewide Interoperability Coordinator (SWIC) in the state of the project. As the central coordination point for their state's interoperability effort, the SWIC plays a critical role, and can serve as a valuable resource. SWICs are responsible for the implementation of the SCIP through coordination and collaboration with the emergency response community. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security Office of Emergency Communications maintains a list of BJA-2011-3031 OMB No.1121-0329 7 Approval Expires 02/28/2013 SWICs for each of the 56 states and territories. Please contact OEC @_hq.dhs.gov if you are not familiar with your state or territory's SWIC. If any future regulatory requirement (from the FCC or other governmental entity) results in a material technical or financial change in the project, the recipient should submit associated documentation, and other material, as applicable, for review by the SWIC to ensure coordination. Please note that for future year solicitations (FY 2012), BJA will require that the SWIC provide approval for changes in interoperable communication projects. Grantees should establish communications with the SWIC in their state or territory in the near future in order to ensure seamless coordination on all projects going forward. Grantees (and sub-grantees) should provide a listing of all communications equipment purchased with grant award funding (plus the quantity purchased of each item) to their assigned BJA State Policy Advisor once items are procured during any periodic programmatic progress reports. Responsibilities The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of an eligible unit of local government or other officer designated by the CEO must submit the application for JAG funds. A unit of local government receiving a JAG award will be responsible for the administration of the funds including: distributing the funds; monitoring the award; submitting quarterly financial status (SF-425) and performance metrics reports and annual programmatic reports; and providing ongoing oversight and assistance to any subrecipients of the funds. Length of Awards Awards are made in the first fiscal year of the appropriation and may be expended during the following 3 years, for a total grant period of 4 years. Extensions beyond this period may be made on a case-by-case basis at the discretion of the Director of BJA and must be requested via the Grants Management System (GMS) no less than 30 days prior to the grant end date. Administrative Funds A unit of local government may use up to 10 percent of the award, plus any interest accrued, for costs associated with administering JAG funds. Disparate Certification A disparate allocation occurs when a city or municipality is allocated one-and-one-half times (150 percent) more than the county, while the county bears more than 50 percent of the costs associated with prosecution or incarceration of the municipality's Part 1 violent crimes. A disparate allocation also occurs when multiple cities or municipalities are collectively allocated four times (400 percent) more than the county, and the county bears more than 50 percent of the collective costs associated with prosecution or incarceration of each municipality's Part 1 violent crimes. * Jurisdictions certified as disparate must identify a fiscal agent that will submit a joint application for the aggregate eligible allocation to all disparate municipalities. The joint application must determine and specify the award distribution to each unit of local government and the purposes for which the funds will be used. When beginning the JAG application process, a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that identifies which BJA-2011-3031 OMB No.1121-0329 8 Approval Expires 02/28/2013 jurisdiction will serve as the applicant/fiscal agent for joint funds, must be completed, and signed by the Authorized Representative for each participating jurisdiction. The signed MOU should be attached to the application. For a sample MOU, go to www.ojp.usdoj.gov/BJA/grant/jag 11/11 JAGMOU.pdf. Governing Body Review The applicant agency (fiscal agent in disparate situations) must make the grant application available for review by the governing body (or to the organization designated by the governing body) not fewer than 30 days before the application is submitted to BJA. Public Comment The applicant agency (the fiscal agent in disparate situations) must include a statement that the application was made public and that, to the extent of applicable law or established procedure, an opportunity to comment was provided to citizens and to neighborhood or community-based organizations. Budget Information Match Requirement While match is not required with the JAG Program, match can be used as an effective strategy for states and units of local government to expand justice funds and build buy-in for local criminal justice initiatives. Supplanting Federal funds must be used to supplement existing funds for program activities and cannot replace or supplant nonfederal funds that have been appropriated for the same purpose. Supplanting is prohibited under JAG. Please see BJA's JAG web page and the updated JAG FAQs for examples of supplanting. Trust Fund Award recipients may drawdown JAG funds in advance. To do so, a trust fund must be established in which to deposit the funds. The trust fund may or may not be an interest-bearing account. If subrecipients draw down JAG funds in advance, they also must establish a trust fund in which to deposit funds. This trust fund requirement only applies to direct JAG award recipients as well as subrecipients that are not on a reimbursement basis. Prohibited Uses No JAG funds may be expended outside of JAG purpose areas. Even within these purpose areas, however, JAG funds cannot be used directly or indirectly for security enhancements or equipment for nongovernmental entities not engaged in criminal justice or public safety. Nor may JAG funds be used directly or indirectly to provide for any of the following matters unless BJA certifies that extraordinary and exigent circumstances exist, making them essential to the maintenance of public safety and good order: BJA-2011-3031 OMB No.1121-0329 9 Approval Expires 02/28/2013 • Vehicles (excluding police cruisers), vessels (excluding police boats), or aircraft (excluding police helicopters). • Luxury items. • Real estate. • Construction projects (other than penal or correctional institutions). • Any similar matters. *For information related to requesting a waiver to use funds for any prohibited item, please refer to the updated JAG FAQs on BJA's JAG web page. Reporting Requirements Once an award is accepted, award recipients must submit quarterly financial status (SF-425) and annual performance reports through GM S. In addition, applicants who receive funding under this solicitation must provide data that measures the results of their work. Please refer to "Performance Measures" below for further information. Performance Measures To assist in fulfilling the Department's responsibilities under the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GPRA), P.L. 103-62, applicants who receive funding under this solicitation must provide data that measures the results of their work. Quarterly performance metrics reports must be submitted through BJA's Performance Measurement Tool (PMT) web site: www.bjaperformancetools.orq. The performance measure can be found at: www.bjaperformancetools.orq/help/ARRAJAGandJAGCombinedlndicatorGrid.pdf. All JAG recipients should be aware that BJA is currently considering changes to the JAG performance reporting processes, including measures. While state administering agencies will play a role in the process, recipients are advised that the reporting requirements noted above may be subject to modification through this process. Submission of performance measures data is not required for the application. Instead, applicants should discuss in their application their proposed methods for collecting data for performance measures. Please refer to the section "What an Application Must Include" (below) for additional information. Note on project evaluations: Applicants that propose to use funds awarded through this solicitation to conduct project evaluations should be aware that certain project evaluations (such as systematic investigations designed to develop or contribute to generalizable knowledge) may constitute "research" for purposes of applicable DOJ human subjects protections. However, project evaluations that are intended only to generate internal improvements to a program or service, or are conducted only to meet OJP's performance measure data reporting requirements likely do not constitute "research." Applicants should provide sufficient information for OJP to determine whether the particular project they propose would either intentionally or unintentionally collect and/or use information in such a way that it meets the DOJ regulatory definition of research. BJA-2011-3031 OMB No.1121-0329 10 Approval Expires 02/28/2013 Research, for the purposes of human subjects protections for OJP-funded programs, is defined as, "a systematic investigation, including research development, testing, and evaluation, designed to develop or contribute to generalizable knowledge" (28 C.F.R. § 46.102(d)). For additional information on determining whether a proposed activity would constitute research, see the decision tree to assist applicants on the "Research and the Protection of Human Subjects" section of the OJP Other Requirements for OJP Applications" web page (www.ojp.usdoj.gov/funding/other requirements.htm). Applicants whose proposals may involve a research or statistical component also should review the "Confidentiality" section on that web page. Notice of New Post-Award Reporting Requirements Applicants should anticipate that all recipients (other than individuals) of awards of$25,000 or more under this solicitation, consistent with the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (FFATA), will be required to report award information on any first-tier subawards totaling $25,000 or more, and, in certain cases, to report information on the names and total compensation of the five most highly compensated executives of the recipient and first-tier subrecipients. Each applicant entity must ensure that it has the necessary processes and systems in place to comply with the reporting requirements should it receive funding. Reports regarding subawards will be made through the FFATA Subaward Reporting System (FSRS), found at www.fsrs.gov/. Please note also that applicants should anticipate that no subaward of an award made under this solicitation may be made to a subrecipient (other than an individual) unless the potential subrecipient acquires and provides a Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number. How to Apply Applications are submitted through OJP's Grants Management System (GMS). GMS is a web- based, data-driven computer application that provides cradle to grave support for the application, award, and management of awards at OJP. Applicants must register in GMS for each specific funding opportunity and should begin the process immediately to meet the GMS registration deadline, especially if this is the first time using the system. Complete instructions on how to register and submit an application in GMS can be found at www.ojp.usdoj.gov/gmscbt/. If the applicant experiences technical difficulties at any point during this process, please e-mail GMS.HelpDesk©usdoj.gov or call 888-549-9901 (option 3), Monday—Friday from 6:00 a.m. to midnight eastern time, except federal holidays. OJP highly recommends that applicants start the registration process as early as possible to prevent delays in submitting an application package by the specified application deadline. All applicants should complete the following steps: 1. Acquire a DUNS number. A DUNS number is required to submit an application in GMS. In general, the Office of Management and Budget requires that all applicants (other than individuals) for federal funds include a DUNS (Data Universal Numbering System) number in their application for a new award or renewal of an existing award. A DUNS number is a unique nine-digit sequence recognized as the universal standard for identifying and keeping track of entities receiving federal funds. The identifier is used for tracking purposes and to validate address and point of contact information for federal assistance applicants, recipients, and subrecipients. The DUNS number will be used throughout the grant life BJA-2011-3031 OMB No.1121-0329 11 Approval Expires 02/28/2013 cycle. Obtaining a DUNS number is a free, one-time activity. Obtain a DUNS number by calling Dun and Bradstreet at 866-705-5711 or by applying online at www.dnb.com. A DUNS number is usually received within 1-2 business days. 2. Acquire or renew registration with the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database. OJP requires that all applicants (other than individuals) for federal financial assistance maintain current registrations in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database. The CCR database is the repository for standard information about federal financial assistance applicants, recipients, and subrecipients. Organizations that have previously submitted applications via Grants.gov are already registered with CCR, as it is a requirement for Grants.gov registration. Please note, however, that applicants must update or renew their CCR registration annually to maintain an active status. Information about CCR registration procedures can be accessed at www.ccr.gov. 3. Acquire a GMS username and password. A new user must create a GMS profile by selecting the "First Time User" link under the sign-in box of the GMS home page. For more information on how to register in GMS, go to www.ojp.usdoj.gov/gmscbt/. 4. Verify the CCR registration in GMS. OJP requests that all applicants verify their CCR registration in GMS. Once logged into GMS, please click the "CCR Claim" link on the left side of the default screen. Click the submit button to verify the CCR registration. 5. Search for the funding opportunity on GMS. After logging into GMS or completing the GMS profile for username and password, go to the "Funding Opportunities" link on the left side of the page. Please select the Bureau of Justice Assistance and the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program—Local Solicitation. 6. Register by selecting the "Apply Online" button associated with the solicitation title. The search results from step 5 will display the solicitation title along with the registration and application deadlines for this funding opportunity. Please select the "Apply Online" button in the "Action" column to register for this solicitation and create an application in the system. 7. Submit an application consistent with this solicitation by following the directions in GMS. Once submitted, GMS will display a confirmation screen stating the submission was successful. Important: In some instances, an applicant must wait for GMS approval before submitting an application. Applicants are urged to submit the application at least 72 hours prior to the due date of the application. Note: OJP's Grants Management System (GMS) does not accept executable file types as application attachments. The disallowed file types include, but are not limited to, the following extensions: ".com," ".bat," ".exe," ".vbs," ".cfg," ".dat," ".db," ".dbf," ".dIl," ".ini," ".log," ".ora," ".sys," and ".zip." Experiencing Unforeseen GMS Technical Issues If an applicant experiences unforeseen GMS technical issues beyond the applicant's control that prevent submission of its application by the deadline, the applicant must contact the Bureau of Justice Assistance Programs Office staff within 24 hours after the deadline and request approval to submit the application. At that time, BJA Programs Office staff will instruct the applicant to submit specific information detailing the technical difficulties. The applicant must e- BJA-2011-3031 OMB No.1121-0329 12 Approval Expires 02/28/2013 mail: a description of the technical difficulties, a timeline of submission efforts, the complete grant application, the applicant DUNS number, and GMS Help Desk tracking number(s) received. After the program office reviews all of the information submitted, and contacts the GMS Help Desk to validate the technical issues reported, OJP will contact the applicant to either approve or deny the request to submit a late application. If the technical issues reported cannot be validated, the application will be rejected as untimely. The following conditions are not valid reasons to permit late submissions: (1) failure to begin the registration process in sufficient time, (2) failure to follow GMS instructions on how to register and apply as posted on its Web site, (3) failure to follow all of the instructions in the OJP solicitation, and (4) technical issues experienced with the applicant's computer or information technology (IT) environment. Notifications regarding known technical problems with GMS, if any, are posted at the top of the OJP funding web page, www.oip.usdoi.gov/funding/solicitations.htm. What an Application Must Include This section describes what an application is expected to include and sets out a number of elements. Applicants should anticipate that failure to submit an application that contains all of the specified elements may negatively affect the review of the application and, should a decision nevertheless be made to make an award, will result in the inclusion of special conditions that preclude access to or use of award funds pending satisfaction of the conditions. OJP strongly recommends use of appropriately descriptive file names (e.g., "Program Narrative," "Budget and Budget Narrative," "Memoranda of Understanding," etc.) for all required attachments. 1. Application for Federal Assistance (SF-424) The SF-424 is a standard form required for use as a cover sheet for submission of pre- applications, applications, and related information. Grants.gov and GMS take information from the applicant's profile to populate the fields on this form. 2. Program Narrative Applicants must submit a program narrative that generally describes the proposed program activities for the four year grant period. The narrative must outline the type of programs to be funded by the JAG award and provide a brief analysis of the need for the programs. Narratives must also identify anticipated coordination efforts involving JAG and related justice funds. Certified disparate jurisdictions submitting a joint application must specify the funding distribution to each disparate unit of local government and the purposes for which the funds will be used. Failure to submit this required information will result in an application being returned in the Grants Management System (GMS) for inclusion of the missing information OR the attachment of a withholding of funds special condition at the time of award. 3. Budget and Budget Narrative Applicants must submit a budget and budget narrative outlining how JAG funds, including administrative funds if applicable, will be used to support and implement the program. This narrative should include a full breakdown of administrative costs, as well as an overview of BJA-2011-3031 OMB No.1121-0329 13 Approval Expires 02/28/2013 how funds will be allocated across approved JAG purpose areas. Applicants should utilize the following approved budget categories to label the requested expenditures: Personnel, Fringe Benefits, Travel, Equipment, Supplies, Consultants/Contracts, and an Other category. For informational purposes only, a sample budget form may be found at www.oip.usdoi.gov/funding/forms/budget detail.pdf. Failure to submit this required information will result in an application being change requested in the Grants Management System (GMS) for inclusion of the missing information OR the attachment of a withholding special condition at the time of award if time does not permit for a change request process. Failure to submit this required information will result in an application being returned in the Grants Management System (GMS) for inclusion of the missing information OR the attachment of a withholding of funds special condition at the time of award. 4. Review Narrative Applicants must submit information documenting that the date the JAG application was made available for review to the governing body, or to an organization designated by that governing body, on a date not less than 30 days before the application was submitted to BJA. The attachment must also specify that an opportunity to comment was provided to citizens to the extent applicable law or established procedures make such opportunity available. Failure to submit this required information will result in an application being change requested in the Grants Management System (GMS) for inclusion of the missing information OR the attachment of a withholding special condition at the time of award if time does not permit for a change request process. Failure to submit this required information will result in an application being returned in the Grants Management System (GMS) for inclusion of the missing information OR the attachment of a withholding of funds special condition at the time of award. 5. Abstract Applicants must provide an abstract that includes the applicant's name, title of the project, goals of the project, and a description of the strategies to be used. In addition, above or below the abstract narrative, applicants must identify up to five project identifiers that would be associated with proposed project activities.

Failure to submit this required information will result in an application being returned in the Grants Management System (GMS) for inclusion of the missing information OR the attachment of a withholding of funds special condition at the time of award. 6. Tribal Authorizing Resolution (if applicable) If an application is being submitted by either (1) a tribe or tribal organization or (2) a third party proposing to provide direct services or assistance to residents on tribal lands, then a current authorizing resolution of the governing body of the tribal entity or other enactment of the tribal council or comparable governing body authorizing the inclusion of the tribe or tribal organization and its membership should be included with the application. In those instances when an organization or consortium of tribes proposes to apply for a grant on behalf of a tribe or multiple specific tribes, then the application should include a resolution from all tribes that will be included as a part of the services/assistance provided under the grant. A consortium of tribes for which existing consortium bylaws allow action without support from BJA-2011-3031 OMB No.1121-0329 14 Approval Expires 02/28/2013 all tribes in the consortium (i.e., without authorizing resolution or other enactment of each tribal governing body) may submit a copy of its consortium bylaws with the application in lieu of tribal resolutions. 7. Additional Attachments (if applicable) Jurisdictions certified as disparate must identify a fiscal agent that will submit a joint application for the aggregate eligible allocation to all disparate municipalities. The joint application must determine and specify the award distribution to each unit of local government and the purposes for which the funds will be used. When beginning the JAG application process, a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that identifies which jurisdiction will serve as the applicant/fiscal agent for joint funds, must be completed, and signed by the Authorized Representative for each participating jurisdiction. The signed MOU must be attached to the application. For a sample MOU, go to www.ojp.usdoj.gov/BJA/grant/jag 11/11 JAGMOU.pdf. Failure to submit this required information will result in an application being change requested in the Grants Management System (GMS) for inclusion of the missing information OR the attachment of a withholding special condition at the time of award if time does not permit for a change request process. 8. Other Standard Forms Additional forms that may be required in connection with an award are available on OJP's funding page at www.ojp.usdoj.gov/funding/forms.htm.

JAG 2011 Grant Proposal The City of Spokane Valley respectfully submits this application for the 2011 Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG). The City of Spokane Valley will act as fiscal agent for the JAG. This is the second year the City is eligible to apply as a non-disparate single jurisdiction. The City's Grant Accountant and Senior Analyst will be responsible for grant administration details as they relate to acting as fiscal agent, to include disbursement of funds and collecting and submitting financial and performance measure reports of the JAG funding. Expenditures are tracked through individual budget lines for each federal grant received, which keeps federal funding separate. City of Spokane Valley Projects The Spokane Valley Police Department, on behalf of the City of Spokane Valley, proposes to use their allocation of JAG funds ($34,812)for the grant purpose area of law enforcement programs. This grant funding will be used to implement the National Incident- Based Reporting System (NIBRS) at a cost of$16,250; Twenty (20) Encryption Aircards at a cost of $10,318; and ammunition at a cost of$8,244. NIBRS is an incident-based reporting system used by law enforcement as a standardized format for collecting and reporting data on crimes. It allows access and provides cross jurisdictional, agency-wide data sharing and administrative applications for investigative uses. It is mandated by the Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs that every county in the State of Washington will use this system of reporting by 1/1/2012. The funds being requested will provide the necessary upgrade to our current Expeditor program, to implement NIBRS reporting as mandated. Continued funding of the aircards will maintain the service for the Spokane Valley Police Department's subcompact Page 1 of 2 JAG 2011 Program Narrative for City of Spokane Valley, WA. rugged computers so they will be active for in-field use. These aircards create secure, encrypted wireless data connections that enable law enforcement in the field to complete information systems searches necessary to their job duties. The ammunition will allow officers to receive additional firearm training. Page 2 of 2 City of Spokane Valley Review Narrative The JAG application data was made available to the Council and public on June 24, 2011. All information was available on the City's website and by request through the City Clerk's Office.

Specifically, the City's identified expenditures will be used to counteract violent crime, acts of terrorism, economic crimes, and crimes against children. The National Incident-Based System implementation allows access and provides cross-jurisdictional, agency-wide data sharing and administrative applications for investigative uses. The aircards allow officers to quickly receive and send secure, encrypted wireless data that enable law enforcement in the field to complete information systems searches necessary to their job duties. The ammunition expenditure will allow officers to complete firearm training and achieve certification to allow them to combat crime effectively while maintaining the safety of the community. The federal funds will be fully utilized for equipment and supplies. The City will fund the administrative costs of approximately$2,437. Costs are itemized in the attached budget worksheet. CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY Request for Council Action Meeting Date: July 12, 2011 City Manager Sign-off: Item: Check all that apply: ❑ consent ❑ old business ® new business ❑ public hearing ❑ information ❑ admin. report ❑ pending legislation AGENDA ITEM TITLE : Motion Consideration: Approval of Interlocal Agreement with Island County GOVERNING LEGISLATION: Intergovernmental Purchases: RCW 39.34.010; 39.34.030(5); SVMC 3.40.050(E). PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: Information only on 03-29-2011; Admin report on 05- 10-2011; Motion consideration 5-24-2011 BACKGROUND: On May 24, 2011 the City Council by unanimous vote authorized the purchase of the Paladin SmartGov permit tracking system. Island County conducted a compliant competitive bid process which also resulted in the purchase of the Paladin Data Systems permit tracking system in January 2011. State law allows purchases under either the competitive bid process specified in RCW 39.04.270 or an interlocal process specified in RCW 39.34. The purchase process allowed by RCW 39.34 is referred to as "piggy-backing." Piggy- backing is preferable in this instance rather than going through separate competitive bid process that would result in the purchase of the same software from the same vendor. Staff discussed this option at the May 24 meeting citing the savings in time and money that would result by piggy-backing on the Island County process. In order to use the piggy-backing process to purchase the Paladin Data Systems SmartGov system under the same contract conditions as Island County, the City is required by RCW 39.34.030 to have an interlocal purchasing agreement with Island County. The draft of the interlocal agreement with Island County attached. The agreement is similar to the interlocal Spokane County is proposing with Island County for the same purpose. Island County commissioners will review the proposed interlocals with Spokane Valley and Spokane County on July 5, 2011 with final approval scheduled for July 11, 2011. OPTIONS: 1. Authorize the City Manager to enter in to the purchasing interlocal with Island County 2. Provide direction to the City Manager to conduct a competitive bid process. RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: I move to authorize the City Manager to execute and finalize the interlocal with Island County for the purpose of"piggy-backing" on the Island County competitive bid process for the purchase of the Paladin SmartGov permit tracking system. BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: No budget or financial impacts as a result of authorizing the interlocal. The permit tracking system purchase has already been authorized by Council to be included in the 2011 budget amendments.

BACKGROUND: This project will provide improvements to the traffic signals at Knox and Montgomery, add a northbound right-turn lane at Montgomery Ave to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion. The City received a federal grant covering 86.5% of the cost of the project, up to $1.29 million. DKS Associates was chosen through an RFQ (Request for Qualifications) selection process as the most highly qualified firm to design this project. A scope of work and fee in the amount of $184,439 was negotiated for their design work. Two supplements to the agreement have been executed. Supplement #1 only extended the contract date. Supplement #2 authorized the use of$8,144 of the Management Reserve Fund for additional design work. Design is approximately 90% complete, and the project is ready to begin the right-of-way acquisition phase. To keep the project moving forward and acquire right-of-way, a supplement to DKS' contract is necessary. The estimated cost for right-of-way services is $92,639. This increase, together with the original contract amount, exceeds the City Manager's $200,000 contract authority. Therefore, council approval is required. OPTIONS: 1) Approve the execution of the Supplemental Agreement #3 with DKS Associates for the right-of-way acquisition on the Argonne Road Corridor Improvement Project, or 2) Provide additional direction to staff. RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Move to authorize the City Manager or designee, to execute Supplemental Agreement #3 with DKS Associates in the amount of $92,639.14 for right-of-way acquisition on the Argonne Road Corridor Upgrade Project #0060. BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: This project's total estimated cost is $1.29 million, with a 13.5% local match ($174,200). The 2011 budget includes sufficient funds to provide the required local match for this portion of the project.

DKS Associates TRANSPORTATION SO I I I(:::: : Argonne Road Project - Supplement 3 Scope of Work 6/7/11 The purpose of this supplement is to support the City of Spokane Valley through the procurement of new right-of-way for the new curb returns at Knox and the new right turn pocket at Montgomery. Task 8: Right-of-Way Services Task 8.1 : ROW Acquisition Services The following is a list of the tasks that will be performed to support the COSV through the ROW acquisition: • Determine Ownership—Review of parcel numbers with County records for overview of ownership. • Order Title Reports, Review and Clear Title—Order title reports with insurance on each site. Review reports for any items including mortgages and contracts that may need to be cleared. Execute necessary documents to clear title. • Send Introduction Letters—When ownership is determined, an Introduction letter will be sent to affected property owners providing a basic outline of the project, informing them that they may be affected, and providing them with a contact person. • Meet with Owners to discuss Issues—This will be an ongoing process throughout the project to keep the owners informed as much as possible about the project. • Obtain Right of Entry Forms—Obtain Right of Entry forms from all necessary land owners for surveying, construction, testing and all other related tasks. • Order Appraisals—When Right of Way drawings are completed, appraisals will be performed by a State Certified and WSDOT Approved appraiser in compliance with State and Federal Guidelines. The appraiser will issue an opinion of value. • Order Appraisal Reviews -Upon receipt of Appraisals, they will be forwarded onto John Evans for appraisal review. This process is a review the appraisal to determine that all issues have been addressed. • Present and obtain approvals from City on settlement offers. —The review appraiser will fill out the WSDOT appraisal review form, which will be submitted to the City for approval of the determination of value. This is the value that will be offered to the land owner. • Send Offer Letters—Upon signature by the City of the Determination of Value, Offer Letters will be sent to the land owners detailing the land to be purchased, City's offer to purchase this property, and the rights available to that owner. 1 DKS Associates TRANSPORTATION SOLUTIONS • Negotiate final terms—Meet with each owner to reach final settlement. • Sign agreements with owners -When the final settlement is reached, the Purchase and Sale Agreement will be signed and forwarded to the City for approval and signature. • Close Transaction—Arrangements will be made for closing at a title company after the City has approved the purchase. The closing company will record all documents and the original will be sent to the City for their files. • Prepare files for certification by the State—All files will be prepared for review by the State for certification of Right of Way. • Send set of files to the City for their records. Task 8.2: ROW Acquisition Survey Support The Consultant Team surveyor will paint/flag/stake the future ROW alignment during the negotiation process with the property owners so that all parties involved can see the exact impacts of the ROW takes. Task 8.3: Property Corner Documentation The Consultant Team surveyor will prepare property corner removal documentation for submittal to the Department of Natural Resources for all property corners impacted by ROW acquisition. In addition the surveyor will install new property corners along the new ROW alignment and will file them with the Record of Survey. Task 9: Parking Lot Re-Striping The consultant team will prepare channelization plans to show new striping for the parking lots impacted by the new right turn pocket at Montgomery. The parking lot work for 2304 N Argonne (parcel #45083.0262) will likely just involve removal of existing striping for the stalls along the back of sidewalk. It is anticipated that part of the negotiations with the property owner of 2314 N Argonne (parcel #45083.2314) and current renter will include refreshing the existing channelization. It is assumed that the new channelization will effectively match what is existing. Multiple reconfiguration options will not be presented to the property owner. Draft and final channelization plans (two plan sheets) will be prepared during the ROW negotiation process. Once approved, they will be incorporated into the final bid plans for the Argonne Corridor Upgrade project. The cost estimate and special provisions will also be updated to account for this work. Additional survey work will be required to complete a base map for 2314 N Argonne (parcel #45083.2314) property parking lot channelization plans. The survey will identify the remaining corners of the building and existing corners of the parking lot. 2 CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY Request for Council Action Meeting Date: July 12 2011 City Manager Sign-off: Item: Check all that apply: ❑ consent ❑ old business ® new business ❑ public hearing ❑ information ❑ admin. report ❑ pending legislation AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Motion Consideration: Ballot Measure — Sprague/Appleway - One-Way vs Two-Way GOVERNING LEGISLATION: PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: During the June 28, 2011 Council meeting, council determined to move forward with the Traffic Modeling Study. BACKGROUND: Traffic Modeling Schedule: Step 1: Complete an initial analysis by July 12th of 2-way option and provide a report outlining any problems or failures that would not allow the proposed change to be a viable project.

JUNE 29, 201.0 Meeting Materials CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY Request for Council Action Meeting Date: June 29, 2010 City Manager Sign-off: Item: Check all that apply: ❑consent ❑ old business ❑ new business ❑ public healing ❑information ®admin. report ❑ pending legislation AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Ballot Measure—One-Way vs Two-Way-- Sprague Appleway GOVERNING LEGISLATION: PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: BACKGROUND: At the regular Council meeting on June 8t'', 2010, Councilrnember Grafos introduced the concept of placing the issue of one-way versus two-way traffic around the couplet and U-City on the General Election Ballot in November. Mayor Towey and Deputy Mayor Schimmels also expressed interest in this concept, Pursuant to this, City Clerk Chris Bainbridge has contacted Mike McLaughlin, Spokane County Elections Manager, and has determined the following: The cost to place this matter on the November ballot is approximately $10,000 to $15,000. The cost to place the measure on a special ballot (with no other ballot measures) would be approximately $100,000. The November ballot so far does not include any bond issue but it does include a Fire Department LID levy lift. The deadline to file a resolution for the November 2`` General Election is August 10, 2010. The deadline to file a resolution for the February 8, 2011 election is December 25, 2010. Current Action Taken: On Thursday, June 13, 2010, Acting City Manager Mike Jackson and City Attorney Mike Connelly met with Mike Ormsbsy, Bond Attorney with K & L Gates to discuss the proposed measure. Mr, Ormsby felt the deadline of filing a resolution with Spokane County by August 10 is achievable and should have a draft ballot measure for the City to review in the near future, Public Works Department has expressed concern over the budget numbers provided by Gadding Jackson for the Sprague Appleway conversion. The costs previously provided are planning level estimates only. Public Works recommends the preparation of engineering level cost estimates and will proceed with developing those estimates. If Council decides not to move forward with the ballot measure, Public Works can discontinue work on this project. Public Works will provide the engineering estimates for the transportation portion only. The landscaping, sidewalk and other improvements were prepared by Gladding Jackson and we will rely on them for an update on their costs. Issues to Resolve: The questions for City Council at this time include: 1) Define the scope of conversion of one-way or two-way i.e. from University to Argonne, or to include the entire couplet 2) Does City Council wish to pursue the streetscape improvements? 3) Does the Council wish to include a funding measure i.e. a bond issue with the transportation improvements? Schedule: An administrative report to the City Council to discuss this information and other issues as desired by Council has been scheduled for June 29, 2010. Additional discussions can occur on July 6 and July 13, 2010, as needed. First reading of an ordinance authorizing the ballot measure and related funding July 22, 2010. Second reading proposed ordinance authorizing the ballot measure and related funding July 27, 2010. A resolution requesting that Spokane County place this matter on the ballot July 27, 2010.

BACKGROUND: This RCA will cover five areas related to the discussion on a potential ballot measure for the one-way versus two-way conversion of Sprague and Appleway Avenues; 1) Cost estimate to convert Sprague Avenue and Appleway Avenue between Argonne Road and University Road from one-way to two-way 2) Cost to develop an engineering level estimate to convert that portion of Sprague Avenue and Appleway Avenue from one-way to two-way between Thierman Road and Argonne Road 3) Overview of the federal funds available for the Sprague/Appleway corridor 4) What the ballot measure could include 5) Minutes from the previous council meetings in which the discussion was held, and a decision was made, on which portions of the Sprague/Appleway corridor would remain one-way, two-way, or converted from one-way to two-way. 1) COST ESTIMATE—SPRAGUEIAPPLEWAY CONVERSION Public Works staff completed a planning level cost estimate to convert the existing one-way streets of Sprague and Appleway Avenues between Argonne Road to University Road, to two way streets. The total estimate is $1.34 million and includes the following issues and assumptions: m All work to be completed between existing curbs; no widening or narrowing of roadway, additional lanes, parking or streetscape improvements as proposed and shown in the approved Sprague &Appleway Subarea Plan • Includes ADA improvements to intersection curb ramps • Includes design and construction inspection/administration work • Traffic modeling to determine intersection level of service (LOS) with the proposed configuration has not been completed. The estimated cost for this effort is approximately $75,000 and would take an estimated 3 months to complete. e Road resurfacing and stormwater system upgrade work not included r Revisions to existing concrete driveway approaches to meet new ADA standards not included Since these roadways are 10+ years old and beginning to deteriorate, it would be prudent to consider resurfacing these roadways prior to making the striping and signal changes. Stormwater upgrades would also be advisable as was done last year on the Sprague Avenue Resurfacing Project from University to Evergreen. The estimated cost of doing this resurfacing and stormwater work would be an additional $1.4 million ($2.7 million total for the conversion and resurfacing combined). 2)CosT ESTIMATE FOR CONVERTING SPRAGUE/APPLEWAY—THIERMAN ROAR TO ARGONNE ROAD The estimated cost to develop a planning-level engineering cost estimate for the conversion of Sprague Avenue and Appleway Avenue from one-way to two-way between Thierman Road and Argonne Road is$150,000. This cost includes the following: ➢ The hiring of a traffic engineering consultant(no staff available for this effort) y Work with SRTC and the new version of the regional traffic demand model to develop future traffic volumes for Sprague/Appleway conversions ➢ Coordinate with, and get approval from, WSDOT for any changes proposed at, and west of Thierman Road ➢ Synchro or VISSIM traffic modeling of all intersection's level of service (LOS) in this segment to ensure acceptable operations ➢ Developing planning-level engineering cost estimate 3)FEDERAL FUNDING AVAILABILITY At the June 29 council meeting, staff briefly mentioned the availability of $4.2 million in federal funding for the Sprague/Appleway corridor. Additional clarification on the availability and use of these funds is provided below. ➢ $4.2M originally for the extension of Appleway Avenue east of University was approved by the SRTC Board in March, 2006. ➢ It may be possible to use these funds for other projects in the corridor provided: o A plan exists showing how all improvements within the Sprague/Appleway corridor fit together in the operation of the overall transportation network (currently the SARP provides this) o The federal environmental process (NEPA) on the extension of Appleway Ave is complete. This would include the development and approval of an Environmental Assessment (EA) or a Documented Categorical Exclusion (DOE) o FHWA approves of the project using these funds o SRTC Board approves the project using these funds o The project is included in the Regional MTP and TIP ➢ Federal funds currentry are not available • Without a new federal six-year Transportation Bill, it is unknown at this time how much federal funding will come to the Spokane Region and when. 4) BALLOT MEASURE- Following the June 29th City council meeting, staff suspended work on a draft ballot measure. However the work provided by bond counsel is provided as an example of a ballot measure. The actual language of a ballot measure would be determined by city council and formally adopted by ordinance. Attached is a copy of a sample ordinance which would authorize the issuance of bonds and approve the ballot language as well as other documents necessary to complete the bond offering. 5) PREVIOUS COUNCIL MINUTES-- The City Clerk has researched past minutes and has provided the attached for council review.

This RCA seeks to address the adopted speed limit of Indiana Avenue and its extension (Mission Parkway and Indiana Parkway) from Sullivan Road to Flora Road. The MUTCD states that "States and local agencies should conduct engineering studies to reevaluate non-statutory speed limits on segments of their roadways that have undergone significant changes since the last review, such as the addition or elimination of parking or driveways, changes in the number of travel lanes, changes in the configuration of bicycle lanes, changes in traffic control signal coordination, or significant changes in traffic volumes." (MUTCD, 2B-13) This is the case of Indiana Avenue, which is currently being extended from approximately 0.75 miles east of Sullivan Road to where it transitions at Flora Road into Mission Avenue. The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) also states that "when a speed limit within a speed zone is posted, it should be within 5 mph of the 85th percentile speed* of free- flowing traffic." (MUTCD, 2B-13) Currently, Indiana Avenue does not meet this condition. A speed study was conducted on Indiana east of Sullivan and the 85th percentile speeds are 35.3 mph for eastbound drivers and 34.5 mph for westbound drivers. Additionally, Indiana west of Sullivan Road is posted at 35 mph, and Mission Avenue east of Flora is posted at 35 mph. Because drivers are travelling at 35 mph approaching this segment of Indiana, it is recommended that the segment be posted at 35 mph to create continuity and to prevent driver confusion. Furthermore, Public Works engineers have designed the Indiana Extension (Mission Parkway and Indiana Parkway) to have a posted speed limit of 35 mph. Consequently, all vertical and horizontal curves of the roadway meet the minimum requirements of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) for 35 mph. `The 85th Percentile Speed is the speed at or below which 85 percent of the motor vehicles travel. Speeds are measured with traffic tube counters during typical driving conditions;the speeds measured are free-flow speeds.The 85th percentile speed is derived from these counts. Table 1.

RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: At a future council meeting via resolution, change the speed limit of Indiana Avenue from Sullivan Road to Flora Road to 35 mph. Establish a 35 mph speed limit on Indiana Parkway and Mission Parkway. BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Speed limit signing will need to be changed. This will be completed under the county maintenance contract.
