    APPENDIX A: SMART GROWTH IMPLEMENTATION ASSISTANCE VISIT Background on SGIA Communities around the country are interested in fostering economic growth, protecting environmental resources, and planning for development, but they may lack the tools, resources or information to achieve these goals. In response to this demand, the Development, Community, and Environment Division of the USEPA, launched the Smart Growth Implementation Assistance Program. This is a competitive program to provide technical assistance—through contractor services—to selected communities. This assistance is expected to improve the overall climate for infill, brownfields redevelopment, and the revitalization of non-brownfield sites—as well as deliver on other community and environmental goals. The City of Spokane was one of four communities selected to participate in the SGIA program in 2006. The city and its local partners asked EPA to help with the following tasks: • Develop an understanding of the Spokane market and potential for urban redevelopment in the University District; and • Identify strategies that the public and private sectors can use to create a strong neighborhood and increase development opportunities in the University District. After receiving this charge from the city, EPA worked with its contractor, ICF International, to assemble a team of national smart growth experts to assist the city. The Team visited Spokane January 17-19, 2007. Site visit activities included a two-day public design workshop, meetings with university and city leadership, and a final public presentation of the team’s findings. The workshop and presentation were open to the public and included a wide variety of participants including area residents, property owners, the business community, city and university leadership, local developers, and brokers.

    One Thread That Weaves Throughout Our 125-Year History Is That of Innovation

    ON THE COVER Summer storms hitting 10 days apart caused extensive damage throughout Avista’s Washington/Idaho service area in 2014, knocking out power to nearly 100,000 customers. Crews and office staff worked around the clock, restoring power quickly and safely, keeping customers informed through traditional and social media channels. 1411 EAST MISSION AVENUE | SPOKANE, WASHINGTON 99202 | 509.489.0500 | AVISTACORP.COM One thread that weaves throughout our 125-year history is that of innovation. A LANDMARK Dear Fellow Shareholder: It’s been a landmark year at Avista for many reasons — we celebrated our milestone 125th anniversary; we sold Ecova, our home-grown energy and sustainability management business; we acquired Alaska Energy and Resources Company (AERC) and its primary subsidiary Alaska Electric Light and Power Company (AEL&P) in Juneau, Alaska; and we continued to make significant progress in achieving our goals of investing in our infrastructure, upgrading our technology and preparing our utility to effectively and efficiently implement 21st century energy delivery. For the first time in a generation, we can consider ourselves close to being a “pure play” utility. None of this would have been possible without our cadre operations were $1.93 per diluted share, with net income of dedicated and knowledgeable employees. There’s a from continuing operations attributable to Avista Corp. confidence that comes with competence, a steadiness that shareholders of $119.8 million for 2014. builds on itself and makes things happen. It’s not flashy, but Our balance sheet and credit ratings remain healthy. the effects speak for themselves. Avista’s employees embody At year-end, Avista Corp.

    APPENDIX B: UNIVERSITY DISTRICT MARKET ANALYSIS University District, Market Analysis Spokane, Washington June 18, 2007 Prepared for: The City of Spokane Economic Development Department INTRODUCTION A market and economic analysis was completed for the City of Spokane to estimate the demand for housing and employment uses in the University District The market and economic analysis will set the stage for developing a coherent vision and plan for the University District that will both take advantage of the market demand, and also allow greater economic development than would be possible without planning. Setting the Context The City of Spokane is located in Eastern Washington, approximately 20 miles from the Idaho Border. As the largest city in the region, Spokane is the largest employment center and is the area where many living in the region do their shopping. Over the past decade as vacant land available for office space began to dwindle in Spokane, cities outside of Spokane such as Spokane Valley and Liberty Lakes developed into job centers for service and technology jobs (Figure 1). Figure 1: Spokane County Source: Google Earth, 2007. The University District, located just to the east of the downtown, houses three universities, Gonzaga University, Eastern Washington University and Washington State University (Figures 2 and 3). The district is divided into north and south by the Spokane River. The northern part of the district, where Gonzaga is located, is a distinctly separate housing and office market than the area to the south of the river. Figure 2: University District Boundaries Source: Google Earth, 2006 Figure 3: Central Spokane Source: Google Earth, 2006 The southern part of the University District is further divided into four sub-areas (Figure 4).

The outlet of Coeur d’ Alene Lake forms the headwaters of the Spokane River, which flows westerly to its confluence with the Columbia River (Lake Roosevelt). The major river in the Subbasin is the Spokane River, which runs 111 miles from the outlet of Coeur d’ Alene Lake to its confluence with the Columbia River. The major tributaries of the Spokane River listed from upstream to downstream include Hangman Creek (also known as Latah Creek), Little Spokane River, and Chamokane Creek (also known as Tshimikain Creek). In eastern Washington and northern Idaho there are seven dams on the Spokane River. The city of Spokane Water Department owns, operates, and maintains Upriver Dam and is licensed for fifty years (FERC license 3074-WA, 1981-2031). Avista Corporation owns and operates the other six hydroelectric facilities. The six dams (from upstream to downstream) include Post Falls in Idaho, Upper Falls, Monroe Street, Nine Mile, Long Lake, and Little Falls located in Washington. Five of the six dams owned by Avista were constructed and were operating between 1906 and 1922. Monroe Street Dam was initially built in 1890 (Avista 2002; Scholz et al. 1985) and then reconstructed in 1973.
