Workshops: Economic Development Element Workshop: The City Administrator, Mark McAvoy, presented a review of the redline updates to Economic Development chapter of the Comprehensive Plan. The proposed edits include moving the existing economic development goals and policies to the beginning of this chapter, specifying regional economic development partners, and expanding the section on tourism. He recommends aligning this chapter with the City’s Strategic and Operational Plan and asks that considerations be made to include direct language for infrastructure development, tourism strategies, partnership funding models and business retention and contingency planning. Questions pertaining to specific development policies were asked by the Planning Commission and answered by the City Administrator. Staff will revise language as discussed and bring forward an updated draft for the Planning Commission to review. Planning Commission Meeting Minutes Page 1|2 March 12, 2025 Cultural & Historic Resource Element Workshop: Lance Mueller, Associate Planner, gave a presentation on updates and revisions to the Comprehensive Plan’s Cultural and Historical chapter. Input has been gathered from members of the Parks and Arts Commission and local historian, Ross Schneidmiller. Revisions discussed were to include area history beyond the city limits, remove outdated or unclear policies, and clarify the need for future historical references to use location-based terminology (e.g. street names, intersections) instead of business names for consistency. Lance is currently working on an interactive “story map” for public education regarding the City’s cultural landmarks and historical places. The Commissioners recommended staff propose refined language to reflect discussed changes. Citizens Comments: None Secretary’s Report: Senior Planner, Amy Mullerleile, shared that the Comprehensive Plan meeting schedule has been updated and attached to the Commissioner’s meeting packets and additional changes are underway. Commissioner Reports: Commissioner Sahlberg mentioned the upcoming 3rd CPAT meeting which is planned to include students from Ridgeline High School. He is hopeful that the Commission will be invited to see the students create and plan a city in designated teams. Commissioner Mann reminded the Planning Commission that periodically the Commission provides a report to City Council and wanted to mention that this reporting does not need to only come from the chairperson. He encourages anyone that would like the opportunity to just let him know. Commissioner Folyer shared that the City of Airway Heights has requested the Washington State Building Code Council change the building code for single family residences to include fire sprinkler systems. He asked if this is something that the City should bring to Spokane Valley Fire District or if it is even worth mentioning. Commissioner Jencks asked a question regarding the status of I-2066 and natural gas. We are currently in a holding position on this matter. Adjournment: Commissioner Jencks motioned to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Commissioner Folyer. The motion carried unanimously. The meeting was adjourned at 5:00 p.m. Planning Commission Meeting Minutes Page 2|2 March 12, 2025 Proposed code update Required/ Relevant HAP/Commerce Strategy Type of Barrier Addressed Housing Needs Addresses Notes (PC Meeting 2/26) Recommended Expand allowable housing options, Recommended Increase allowed housing types in existing Development regulations • Housing supply OK, but not in R-1 zone. such as tiny homes, cottage zones.

The analysis indicates that the City’s popula on at build out will be approximately 22,000 which will meet the popula on targets established for the City, and further. It further indicated that the housing types that are assumed to be affordable for various income levels were allowed under current development regula ons, in quan es that would meet projected housing needs by income level.
