Spokane Valley’s 2013-2014 Legislative Agenda
AWC 2014 Legislative Priorities
2013-14 Amended Legislative Agenda
The following is the City of Spokane Valley’s 2013-2014 legislative agenda, adopted by Council at their December 18, 2012
Council meeting, and amended by Council Consensus at their December 10, 2013 meeting:
Appleway Trail Project
Seek $2,000,000 in funding in the 2015-2017 Capital Budget for the development of Phase II of the former Milwaukie Railroad
right-of-way as a unique, two-mile green space and trail in the heart of Spokane Valley’s commercial district. The project is
expected to increase use of the commercial corridor, benefitting the economy and creating new jobs. The project will provide a
much needed route for non-motorized travel along Spokane Valley’s principle east-west commercial arterial, connecting the
Spokane Transit Authority Transit Center, business districts, schools, and medium-high density housing. Community members
have been actively involved in development of a Conceptual Design for the project, which includes: a paved trail, plazas, play
spaces and gathering places, public art, perennial gardens, space for community gardens, mountain bike trail, and lighting and
safety crossings. The current cost estimate for the two-mile portion of Phase II of the Appleway Trail Project (University to
Evergreen) is $2,692,320. Spokane Valley has received grant funding in the amount of $642,852 from Spokane Regional
Transportation Council in their last Call for Projects. The design drawings are 90% complete.
In 2008, the City constructed Phase I which included 1.2 miles of pathway from Corbin Road to the east City limits. If
successful in this funding request, the City would construct Phase II as described above. Phase III would consist of two miles
of trail from Evergreen Road to Corbin Road. The total funds required to complete Phase II and Phase III are estimated at
$5,286,000.
Protect the Local-State Shared Revenues
The City of Spokane Valley encourages the state to preserve local state-shared revenues, and restore funding to those accounts
revised and reduced during the last legislative session. These funds include the Liquor Excise Tax Account, Liquor Board
Profits, Streamlined Sales Tax Mitigation, Municipal Criminal Justice Assistance Account, and City-County Assistance
Account. In 2013, the Legislature permanently reduced local Liquor Excise Tax distributions to cities. In Spokane Valley, this
resulted in approximately a 75% reduction ($437,486 in 2011 to $108,900 in 2014). The Legislature also capped the local
government share of Liquor Board Profits at a fixed rate. The City supports restoring shared Liquor Excise Tax revenues;
restoring growth in local Liquor Board Profits so that cities can share in the increasing liquor revenues; and, protecting and
maintaining funding to other state-share revenue accounts. The City also requests consideration for receiving shared revenues
in any and all new state programs where the City would have operating, enforcement, or financial obligations associated with
the activities of these new programs.
Additional Lien Authority to Recoup Code Enforcement Costs
The City of Spokane Valley seeks legislation to provide cities with additional tools to recoup costs for enforcing code
compliance when a court order has been issued and a city performs the abatement itself or through a contractor. The legislation
would provide cities with the same authority that counties currently have to impose a priority lien on the property, and would
also authorize cities to collect such liens on the following year’s property tax assessment.
Long-Range Legislative Agenda Item
Transportation Project – Barker Road/BNSF Grade Separation
The City of Spokane Valley supports identifying future funding opportunities for the Barker Road/BNSF Grade Separation
project. As the state experiences an increase in rail traffic, this particular intersection will become increasingly congested and
dangerous. This project will separate vehicle traffic from train traffic and remove the at-grade rail crossing. The total anticipated
cost is $26 million. The City has secured $5.2 million from the Washington State Freight Mobility Strategic Investment Board
and the project has been identified as regionally significant by the Inland Pacific Hub Study. Long-term, the City is seeking
$21million in future funding for the Barker Road/BNSF Grade Separation. Additional benefits include: Improve the Level of
Service (LOS) of ‘F’ at this intersection, allowing for new development in the industrial-zoned portion of the City; improve
emergency access; and help to address concerns about coal trains, including impeded traffic flow, increased whistle noise, and
train-vehicle conflict safety.
The City supports the Association of Washington Cities’ legislative agenda items that serve the best interests of Spokane
Valley.
Take Action for Cities 2014 Agenda
The key to a
great state is strong cities throughout Washington. Our 281 cities
are the state’s economic engines and where most of the population lives, works, shops and plays.
In 2014, legislators can protect the heart of a great state by taking action to:
•Restore liquor revenue sharing
– The long history of
local/state liquor revenue sharing, a partnership dating 70+ years, has been severely
undermined in recent years. The Legislature must restore the growth in profits that
cities need to fund public safety and other local impacts. Support HB 2314/SB 6361 incrementally restores growth in local liquor profits.
•Fund new city responsibilities from marijuana
legalization – The new marijuana industry is subject to up to a 75% state
excise tax, but none of that funding is directed to local jurisdictions to address public
safety needs and other complex local impacts. Reconcile medical and recreational
marijuana to meet the federal mandate for a tightly-regulated system.
Support HB 2149 - reconciles medical/recreational marijuana.
SSB 5887 – reconcile medical/recreational marijuana and provide funding for cities.
•Fund transportation needs, including
providing new local transportation revenue
options – Transportation is critical for our economic vitality. Cities must have
the resources to maintain and strengthen both local and state transportation systems.
Support SHB 1959, HB 1892 and SHB 1953 – local transportation revenue options.
•Stop raiding infrastructure funds
– Our infrastructure
is aging and cities can’t keep up with increasing demands. If we are going to
keep Washington moving forward, we need the Public Works Trust Fund and other
infrastructure programs intact, to allow for planned and sustained investments in
communities. Support SHB 2244 – restores funding for the Public Works Trust Fund.

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Draft 2015 – 2020 Six Year Transportation Improvement Program
(TIP) Discussion of Potential Projects
GOVERNING LEGISLATION:
RCW 35.77.010, Perpetual advanced six-year plans for
coordinated transportation program expenditures.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN:
11, 2013, Resolution #13-006.
Adopted 2014-2019 Six Year TIP last year on June
BACKGROUND: The City is required by RCW 35.77.010 to prepare and after a public hearing,
adopt a revised and extended comprehensive transportation program for the ensuing six
calendar years. This plan must be adopted by June 30th and submitted to the Washington State
Department of Transportation before July 31st of each year.
To better incorporate City Council priorities in identifying projects for the 2015-2020 TIP, Staff
would like to discuss projects carried over from last year’s TIP, the unfunded projects list, and
any potential projects to add or remove for the proposed 2015-2020 TIP update.
The attached list represents projects from last year’s Six Year TIP. Completed projects have
been removed and recently funded projects have been added. This becomes a starting point
for developing the 2015-2020 Six Year TIP. Based on comments received, staff will prepare a
first draft of the Six Year TIP reflecting Council’s goals and priorities.
Added Projects:
1. Barker Rd Improvement Project, Appleway to I-90
2. Sprague/Long Sidewalk Project – Funding Received from CDBG
3. Sprague/Barker Roundabout – Beginning design with Developer funds.
Rescheduled Projects:
1. Barker/BNSF Grade Separation – Moved up to accommodate TIGER 6 grant obligation
deadline.
2. Fancher/BNSF RR Overpass Bridge Joint Repair Project – CN delayed to 2015 from
2014 to take advantage of BR grant opportunity.
3. Broadway/Argonne/Mullan Concrete Intersection – Delayed to align with potential
STP funding availability.
4. Mission Ave Improvement – Flora to Barker (CN) - Delayed to align with potential
STP funding availability.
5. Appleway Trail Phase 3 – Evergreen to Corbin - Delayed to align with funding
opportunities.
6. Appleway Trail Phase 4 – University to Park/Library Site - Delayed to align with
funding opportunities.
7. Barker Rd Improvement – Spokane River to Euclid – Delayed to align with future
funding opportunities.
8. Park Road #2 Improvement – Broadway to Indiana (RW & CN) - Delayed to align with
future funding opportunities.
OPTIONS: Discuss potential TIP projects and project schedules.
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Provide discussion and feedback.
BUDGET/FINANCIAL IMPACTS: As the proposed 2015-2020 Six Year TIP evolves, staff will
coordinate with the Finance Department regarding the city’s ability to meet local match grant
requirements for future state and federal grants.

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Proposed 2014 Annual Comprehensive Plan Amendments Overview
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: RCW 36.70A, SVMC 17.80.140 and 19.30.010
PREVIOUS ACTION TAKEN: None
BACKGROUND:
Spokane Valley Municipal Code (SVMC) 17.80.140 establishes an annual comprehensive plan
amendment cycle that runs from November 2nd to November 1st of the following year. The
Planning Commission considers applications during the following spring, with a decision by City
Council generally occurring in late spring/early summer.
The Community Development Department received two privately initiated requests for sitespecific Comprehensive Plan amendments. In addition, the City is proposing one site-specific
Comprehensive Plan amendment. Sites approved for a Comprehensive Plan amendment receive
a zoning classification consistent with the new land use designation.
The Comprehensive Plan text amendments include amendments to six Comprehensive Plan
Elements: Chapter 2 - Land Use, Chapter 3 – Transportation, Chapter 4 – Capital Facilities and
Public Services, Chapter 6 – Private and Public Utilities, Chapter 7 – Economic Development, and
Chapter 11 - Bike and Pedestrian. The proposed amendments may also entail minor changes to
other elements referencing the proposed amendments.
Staff presented the proposed amendments to the Planning Commission at a study session on
February 13, 2014. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the amendments on
February 27, 2014 and continued the hearing to the March 13th meeting. Following deliberations,
the Planning Commission took the following actions:
CPA 01-14 (Mirabeau Park) – voted to recommend that Council deny the specific map
amendment;
CPA 02-14 (SCRAPS - Bradley Road) – voted to recommend that Council deny resulted in a
tie, as a result the motion failed. This is being forwarded without a recommendation;
CPA 03-14 (Barker and Sprague) – voted to recommend that Council deny the specific map
amendment;
CPA 04-14 through CPA 08-14 – voted to recommend approval of the text amendments;
CPA 09-14 – text amendment regarding parks and recreation: withdrawn by staff; and
CPA 10-14: voted to recommend approval of the text amendment.
1 of 2
PUBLIC NOTICE:
Notice for the proposed amendments was placed in the Spokane Valley News Herald on
February 7, 2014 and each site was posted with a “Notice of Public Hearing” sign, which
described the proposal. Individual notices of the proposals were mailed to all property owners
within 400 feet of each proposed amendment.
SEPA REVIEW:
Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA – chapter 43.21C RCW), environmental
checklists were required for each proposed amendment. Under SEPA, amendments to a
comprehensive plan are considered “non-project actions” defined as actions involving decisions
on policies, plans, or programs that contain standards controlling use or modification of the
environment. Additional environmental review may be required for the physical development of
the subject properties.
Staff reviewed the environmental checklists and a threshold determination was made for each
proposed Comprehensive Plan amendment. Determinations of Non-significance (DNS) were
issued for the proposed amendments on February 7, 2014 consistent with SVMC 21.20.070.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT PROPOSALS:
Proposed amendments to the Comprehensive plan are organized into individual reports
consisting of staff reports, maps, and comments submitted to date to assist the City Council in its
review.
OPTIONS: Consensus to proceed with process, including holding a public hearing at the May 6
Council meeting.
STAFF CONTACT: Lori Barlow, AICP, Senior Planner

2) Written Comments from Pinecroft Business Park –dated March 31, 2014

for use in subsequent year’s Comprehensive Plan amendments.

AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Public Participation and Public Notice Requirements for
Comprehensive Plan Updates and Amendments
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: RCW 36.70A, RCW 36.70B, SVMC 17.80
PREVIOUS ACTION TAKEN: N/A
BACKGROUND: City Council requested a review of the City’s adopted Public Participation
Guidelines and notice requirements for Comprehensive Plan updates, Comprehensive Plan
annual amendments, and land use applications.
Comprehensive Plan Updates and Annual Amendments. RCW 36.70A.140 of the Growth
Management Act (GMA) requires local jurisdictions to “establish and broadly disseminate to the
public a public participation program…providing for early and continuous public participation in
the development of (and amendments to) comprehensive plans”. State law does not require
individual notice for comprehensive plan updates and annual amendments. The City adopted its
Public Participation Program in September, 2003, consistent with recommendations of the GMA
(see attached).
Land Use Applications (e.g., zone amendments). In 1995, the Washington State Legislature
adopted the Local Project Review Act (RCW 36.70B), which directs local jurisdictions to
streamline and integrate permit and environmental review processes. The law also established
maximum time limits for application review and comment. Specifically, the Local Project
Review Act requires the City to use “reasonable methods to give the notice of application to the
public….” In compliance with the provisions of RCW 36.70B, the City adopted Permit
Processing Procedures in SVMC 17.80, which include specific requirements for public notice,
depending on the permit type (see attached).
One key requirement of the Local Project Review Act is a Notice of Application for certain
permit types, such as subdivisions, variances, conditional uses, zone map amendments and
shoreline permits. The Notice of Application provides information on the project proposal, how
people can provide public comment and staff contact information. The Notice of Application is
sent to the applicant, all adjacent property owners, and all parties requesting notice.
Under SVMC 17.80, land use application permits that require a public hearing, such as
subdivisions and zone changes, require the following notice at least 15 days prior to the hearing:
1. Notice by mail to:
a. Property owners within 400 feet of subject property.
b. Agencies with jurisdiction (water, sewer, fire, etc.)
c. Entities which the City has executed an interlocal agreement.
1 of 2
d. Other persons affected by the proposal or who have requested notice.
2. Notice by sign posted on subject property.
3. Notice by publication in newspaper.
SVMC 17.80 further requires the City to follow the same notice procedures for Comprehensive
Plan annual amendments, except a Notice of Application is not required.
Text amendments to the SVMC are not site specific, so notice for public hearings are distributed
to the applicant (if privately initiated), the newspaper and posted at City Hall and the main
library branch.
OPTIONS: Discussion only.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Public Participation Program
RCW 36.70A.140 of the Washington Growth Management Act requires that each city “establish
and broadly disseminate to the public a public participation program … for early and continuous
public participation in the development” of the city’s Comprehensive Plan.
Consistent with the recommendations of the GMA which emphasize the involvement of the
broadest cross-section of the community, including the involvement of groups not previously
involved, the City of Spokane Valley adopts the following program for citizen participation in the
planning process:
1. Visioning Process – This process provides Spokane Valley citizens an opportunity to
establish a framework and context upon which the comprehensive plan will be based.
Planning Commission meetings will provide the forum for the initial community visioning
process. A draft “Vision” will be tested for consistency during the development of the
Plan as the community identifies priorities and implementation strategies and updated
accordingly. The ultimate “Vision” will be established at the conclusion of the planning
process as a result of community participation.
2. Planning Commission. The Planning Commission will play a key role in establishing the
City’s dialogue with community members, hosting a series of meetings and workshops
during the development of the Plan. The Planning Commission will evaluate information
provided by the community and develop recommendations for submission to the City
Council.
3. Citizen Survey – The City will conduct a statistically valid survey of the citizens of
Spokane Valley. Survey questions will address specific issues of the comprehensive
plan that will provide city staff, planning commission and city council with meaningful
input for development of the comprehensive plan.
4. Public Meetings.
Conduct a series of public meetings hosted by the Planning
Commission on the preliminary draft comprehensive plan. This ensures that the City will
meet the requirement for “early and continuous” public participation in the
comprehensive planning process.
5. Public hearings. A series of Public Hearings (not less than three) will be held before the
Planning Commission to discuss the draft Plan. It is anticipated that at least two public
hearings will be held by the governing body prior to adoption of the Plan. An additional
public hearing will be held if substantive changes are made to the Plan document.
6. Public notice. The City will provide notice of all meetings and hearings pursuant to the
requirements of RCW 36.70A.020, .035, and .140.

7. Written Comment. The public will be invited to submit written comments as each
element of the Plan is developed, as part of any workshops or community meetings.
Comments will be specifically solicited from residents, special interest organizations and
business interests. Comments may be in the form of letters and other correspondence
to the city regarding the plan or comments received electronically on the city’s website.
Log in all written comments received according to specific area of comprehensive plan.
8. Communications Programs & Informational Services – As staff and budgetary resources
allow, the activities will be undertaken to ensure broad-based citizen participation:
a. Comprehensive Plan newsletter – updating the community on planned meetings,
workshops or other significant comprehensive plan events. Articles on topics related to
the plan and a request for feedback from the community on topics related to the plan.
The newsletter will be disseminated via the city’s website, emailed to a mailing list and/or
provided in paper copy as appropriate.
b. Interest Groups – Contact local interest groups (i.e. Chamber of Commerce, home
builders, environmental, neighborhoods, etc.) and arrange to meet and discuss relevant
comprehensive plan issues.
c. Community Workshops – Conduct community workshops hosted by the Planning
Commission in different parts of the city to encourage neighborhood participation in the
development of the comprehensive plan. These meetings will be held at neighborhood
schools, churches or other community facilities.
d. Press Releases & Public Service Announcements – Work with the local newspapers,
radio stations and televisions stations to advertise and promote significant events related
to the comprehensive plan.
e. Provide written articles to local media for publication.
f. Establish a Speaker’s Bureau through the Planning Commission which will be
available to address service clubs and interested citizen groups.
g. Develop a database of interested citizens and provide regular correspondence
concerning the status of Plan development.
h. Identify key resource personnel representing agencies and groups whose plans will
be integrated into the Comprehensive Plan, including but not limited to fire districts,
utilities, libraries and school districts.
i. Maintain a log of all public participation meetings, events and actions that the city
engages in to provide documentation on the city’s effort to meet the requirements of the
GMA.
