PRESENTATION
Liberty Lake has had significant housing and employment growth but it is planned growth
with the infrastructure appropriately timed to support it.
1
The City is experiencing growth but it is right on track with planning. The green line is our
historical growth with a 6.8% average annual growth rate from 2001 ‐ 2015. The red line is
our historical growth with a 3.3% average annual growth rate from 2010 ‐ 2015 only and
the blue line is our City land quantity analysis from the Comprehensive Plan Update
calculating a planned 3.15% average annual growth rate projection. The hatched orange is
where our population is currently tracking. If we continue to track at a slightly faster rate,
we will hit build‐out a little sooner. Spokane County as a whole, experienced an 11%
population increase over the past 10 years. Statewide, there was a population increase of
15 percent this year with net migration or people moving here being the largest factor. Also
statewide, the level of housing growth actually remains below the prior decade and 52
percent of all new housing units were associated with multi‐family structures.
2
Again, Liberty Lake has had significant housing and employment growth but it is planned
growth with the infrastructure appropriately timed to support it.
3
Our new PermitTrax software allows us to track specific permit types and totals for easier
reporting. This is an example of one of the available reports. Total permits issued thru June,
continues to increase each year. The new commercial projects were the fire station, the
McKinzie III building, and Liberty Lake Winery (the Country Vista Retail building was
permitted in July).
4
The 2016 ‐ 2017 mid‐year activity increase is predominantly home occupation reviews with
a 275% increase. For mid‐year 2017, 61% of the zoning and subdivision revenue has been
from building permit reviews and 39% has been from land use permits, land divisions, etc.
We budget very conservatively and as of July 31st, we have already exceeded our 2017
budgeted revenue for planning activities.
Application reviews and activities # does not include pre‐application reviews, business
license reviews, or code enforcement.
5
The majority of single family growth was in the River District at 54% (shown in dark blue)
with the remaining 46% located south of I‐90. Specialty housing (senior) is split between
Trutina, Stonehill, and Guardian Angels. Stonehill and Legacy Villas are currently the only
multi‐family projects with Legacy Villas (shown in light blue) being by far the largest.
6
Total valuation is over $44 million with half coming from commercial and multi‐family
projects.
7
The over $700,000 of total permit fees paid includes all building permit and site plan
reviews, commercial plan check, Harvard Rd. Mitigation, SBCC, and misc. project
reimbursements with the majority paid in 2nd quarter of 2017.

The City of Liberty Lake continues to be a great place to live, work, and play!

AN INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE CITY OF LIBERTY LAKE AND SPOKANE COUNTY
THIS INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT, made and entered this day of
, 2017, by and between SPOKANE COUNTY, a political subdivision of the State of
Washington, having offices for the transaction of business at West 1116 Broadway Avenue,

SECTION 11. INDEMNITY AND HOLD HARMLESS
To the extent of its comparative liability, each party agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the other
party, its elected and appointed officials, employees, agents and volunteers, harmless from and
against any and all claims, damages, losses and expenses, including but not limited to court costs,
attorney's fees and alternative dispute resolution costs, for any personal injury, for any bodily injury,
sickness, disease or death and for any damage to or destruction of any property (including the loss of
use resulting therefrom) which are alleged or proven to be caused by an act or omission, negligent or
otherwise, of its elected and appointed officials, employees, agents or volunteers.

indemnity provisions shall be valid and enforceable only to the extent of each Party’s comparative
liability.

indemnity claims against each other until after liability to the claimant and damages, if any, are
adjudicated. If any claim is resolved by voluntary settlement and the Parties cannot agree upon
apportionment of damages and defense costs, they shall submit apportionment to binding
arbitration.
If mutual indemnification language is used and includes a “waiver” of immunity under the
Washington State Industrial Insurance Act, RCW Title 51 or other workmen’s compensation,

State Industrial Insurance Act, RCW Title 51, or by application of any other workmen's
compensation act, disability benefit act or other employee benefit act. Each Party hereby expressly
waives any immunity afforded by such acts to the extent required by a Party’s obligations to
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other Party or Parties A Party’s waiver of immunity does

shall not be subdivided into segments with different names.
13. Street names shall not include a directional prefix (e.g., “W West Washington Rd.”).
14. Street names shall not include words used as roadway types (e.g., “Circle St.” or “Avenue
Way.”).

according to which general direction of such road is the predominant direction of travel.
19. If a street / road forks into two roadways, the fork with the highest projected traffic
volume should continue the same name.
20. Two uniquely named roadways should not intersect more than once (e.g., Main St. should

Loops and Circles will be reviewed on an individual basis and require approval from the
Administrator.
21. All street names which deviate from this document shall be subject to a review by the

within E911 computer-aided dispatch systems, and verified against the Regional Public
Safety Spatial Database.
H. Street / Road name signs required.
1. All private and public streets / roads shall have approved street / road name signs posted
at every intersection in compliance with federal, state, and local laws and regulations.
Street / road name signs shall be made and installed pursuant to this chapter and the

Addressing Authority.
2. Prior to the acceptance of streets or issuance of Certificates of Occupancy, as applicable,
the developer / applicant shall install proper street name signs to be located and

chapter, and shall arrange for inspection by Liberty Lake Public Works.
I. Standards for signage of streets / roads.
1. All public and private roads, streets, and buildings shall be designated by names or
numbers on signs clearly visible and legible from the roadway. All street / road signs,
both public and private, shall be constructed, located and maintained in accordance with
standards adopted by the City of Liberty Lake.
J. Addressing Grid Systems.
1. The City of Liberty Lake shall participate in the use of the addressing grid system
described in this section (City of Spokane Addressing Grid), except as stated for the
Legacy Ridge and Legacy Ridge West Developments.
2. The City of Spokane Addressing Grid is defined as follows:
a. Sprague Avenue or Sprague Avenue extended divides the City into north and
south addresses and Division Street or Division Street extended divides the City
into east and west addresses.
b. North of Sprague addresses have even numbers on the east side of the street / road
and odd numbers on the west side; south of Sprague even numbers are on the west
side of the street / road and odd numbers are on the east with the exception of the
Legacy Ridge and Legacy Ridge West Developments within the City of Liberty
Lake where due to the layout and orientation of the streets, the numbers do not
always follow the standard practice as the streets change directions; however the
numbering for the development is consistently followed throughout the
development.
c. West of Division Street addresses have even numbers on the north side and odd
numbers on the south side of the road; east of Division Street even numbers are
assigned to the south side of the road and odd numbers are on the north side with
the exception of the Legacy Ridge and Legacy Ridge West Developments within
the City of Liberty Lake where due to the layout and orientation of the streets, the
numbers do not always follow the standard practice as the streets change
directions; however the numbering for the development is consistently followed
throughout the development.
d. The appropriate directional designation, or abbreviation of the word itself (e.g.,
“N.” or “North”), is part of the address and follows the number. For example, the
first lot south of Sprague Avenue on the west side of Division Street would have a
street address of “1 S. Division Street.”
K. Addressing Standards.
1. Each property owner who has addressable property and has not been assigned an address
has a responsibility to apply to the Addressing Authority for a physical address.
2. Application for each address assignment prior to the issuance of a building permit shall
include, at a minimum: a site map showing any proposed or existing structures,
driveways, and street / road approach locations.

appropriate grid point of origin and continue in sequence. No address shall be out of
sequence in relation to the adjacent addresses.
4. Each block along a street / road may have up to one hundred address numbers. The
hundred series shall change upon crossing a road intersection or in best possible
alignment with the established address grid if applicable, with the exception of
intersecting driveways and/or alleys. The hundred series along a public road shall not
change upon crossing a private road, unless deemed necessary by the Addressing
Authority. Private roads wholly contained within plats shall be assigned hundred series as
if they were Public roads.
5. Addresses along a street / road shall have even numbers on one side of the road and odd
numbers on the other side as defined in the appropriate addressing grid.
6. Individual address numbers shall be assigned to fit within the block range of the road
segment to which the address is assigned (e.g. a new address that is assigned to the 200
block of Main St, must be assigned a number between 200 and 299). Individual
addresses should be assigned to be consistent with adjacent blocks of the same N-S or E-
W orientation.
7. Properties only accessible via a shared driveway shall be assigned based on the point of
origin of the driveway from the connecting street / road and shall be sequential.
8. Addressable property or structures shall be assigned an address based upon the street /

following exceptions:
a. Commercial and Public Facility structures may be assigned an address based upon
the street / road the main entrance faces and not necessarily the access road.
b. Residential structures on corner lots may be assigned an address based upon the
street / road the main entrance faces and not necessarily the access road.

08-0001 Section 10-3G-2(P) for street names and addresses, if a building does not
have street frontage (e.g. common area or pedestrian path frontage), then the
address shall be provided based on the street connection point for vehicular access
and appropriate signage shall be provided for public safety.
9. Fractional addresses shall not be used (e.g., “100 ½ W Main St.”).
10. Address numbers shall not contain any non-numeric characters (e.g., “118a” or “118b”).
L. Change in street / road or address status.
1. If a public or private street / road right-of-way is altered, the addressing authority shall
review the alteration and may assign a corrected street / road name and/or
address/addresses consistent with the provisions of this chapter. If the access to an
individual address is altered, the addressing authority shall assign a corrected address
consistent with the provisions of this chapter (e.g., the owners of 200 W Cherry Ln.
change the location of their driveway from Cherry Ln. to Spruce Ln. necessitating an
address on Spruce Ln.).

driveways shall be assigned one address for the entire property, and a secondary address
assigned for individual spaces by the manufactured home park owner subject to approval
by the City (e.g.; “1520 W. Richland St., Spc. 1”).
4. Multiple unit complexes shall be assigned one address for the property based upon the
street / road from which vehicular access to the structures is obtained whenever possible.
If necessary, the addressing authority may assign an address based upon the street / road
the main entrance faces (e.g., “1642 N. Sherman Rd., Spc. 10” or “1642 N. Sherman Rd.,
Bldg C”).
5. Structures within multiple unit complexes shall be assigned a building designator for each
structure as opposed to a unique address (e.g., “123 W Main St., Bldg. A”) unless an
exception is granted by the addressing authority.
6. When unit designators are assigned to multiple unit structures with individual building
designations, the unit designator shall include the building designation (e.g., 123 W Main
St., Apt. A200 or 123 W Main St., Bldg. A, Apt. 200).
7. When unit designators are assigned to buildings with multiple floors, all above ground
units shall be assigned a three digit number (or higher) where the beginning number shall

the second level below grade would be assigned three digit numbers beginning with 2,
“Apt. Lowr 201”).

the addresses of units within said structure shall be updated to remain in compliance with
this section.

apartments and condominiums) the units shall use the unit type for apartment: “Apt” or
unit: “Unit”.
12. When unit designators are assigned to individual dwellings/spaces in manufactured home
parks, the units shall use the unit type for space: “Spc”.
