To date, implementation has included the creation of volunteer recruitment, management, and tracking methods,the creation and support of a Green Kent Steward program, and the set-up of an interdepartmental management team responsible for making progress toward actively managing the 1,344 acres of natural areas in need of restoration and maintenance by 2029. During the first three years, partnership tasks were divided across Parks, Public Works and Forterra staff. As the program has progressed through its initial phase, City of Kent staff have taken on more of the tasks necessary to maintain the program on a path toward achieving its goals. At the same time, Forterra has been working to develop tangible ways to share resources across the six-city Green Cities Network that results in benefits across the Puget Sound region. The City of Kent, while increasing its capacity to operate the program, sees the value in being connected to the pool of regional resources such as shared trainings and continuing education for stewards, quarterly topic-based focus groups with Green City program managers, an annual Green City Summit, and leveraged outreach to raise regional awareness of Kent's efforts, recruit for the 2013 annual Green Kent Day, and sign up new contacts who are interested in learning more about the Green Kent Partnership. To that effect, much of the work proposed in this scope is related to bolstering Kent's connection to regional resources. Forterra's role will reflect this shift in Kent's priorities. Forterra's Responsibilities and Deliverables • Green Kent Steward Orientation: Forterra staff will participate in the 2013 Green Kent Steward orientation, presenting the background behind the Green City Partnerships including Forterra's regional connection through the Cascade Agenda mission, and providing a sense of the geographic scope that new Kent stewards will be contributing to by summarizing regional statistics. • Quarterly management team regional updates: Forterra staff will attend one Green Kent management team meeting to update staff on upcoming training and education opportunities for Kent stewards across the regional Green Cities Network, and coordinate any potential grant proposal ideas that will contribute to achieving the Green Kent Partnership's goals. • Quarterly educational trainings for Stewards: Forterra will organize and host four continuing education trainings for Green Kent stewards that will enhance steward knowledge about restoration best practices, volunteer event management, western Washington ecology, native plant identification and uses, plant propagation techniques, and/or other practical topics that could include things like small grant proposal writing and how to engage in the public process. • Maintain regional resource sharing site: Forterra will maintain and update a Green Cities Network resource-sharing site that will 1. Keep Green Kent staff informed of upcoming steward and staff trainings being offered in other Green Cities, 2. Provide a place to share helpful community and urban forestry resources, 3. Provide an updated Green Cities Network directory of staff contact information and roles where Green Kent staff can connect to help answer h questions or solve problems that other cities may have already experienced, and 4. Provide a communication platform for Green Kent staff to post questions to other site users. • Green Cities quarterly forums: Forterra will coordinate and host four Green Cities forums to focus on topics important to Green City program managers as voted on by the managers. These forums will rotate across Green Cities,allowing for Green Kent staff to • Green Cities annual summit- Forterra will coordinate and host one annual Green Cities Summit that will provide Green Kent program managers a forum to share their successes, new best practices, as well as challenges with other Green City program managers in order to continue improving the regional effectiveness of restoration efforts. • Regional Green City Day series outreach support: Forterra will coordinate one regional press release about the Green City Day fall series that will highlight the efforts of all cities holding an annual Green City Day. The regional scope of this press release will position Kent's work as part of a larger effort, providing a larger reach and more awareness The Green Kent Partnership will also be included in a Forterra-led outreach project at the 2013 WA State fair in Puyallup. By sharing costs across six Green Cities, Kent will benefit by having a three-week presence at a regional event, while not having to bear the entire financial burden of organizing and staffing the booth.

Consider the following in the answer to this question: what pressing need will be addressed by the project or what promising opportunity will be capitalized on?Who or what will benefit or be positively and negatively affected? WHAT: We are requesting assistance from KCD to help us continue to execute the Green Kent Partnership management plan to better steward our public natural spaces The 20-year plan calls for 96 acres to be enrolled by the end of 2013 56 new acres and 40 acres in maintenance and monitoring As of the end of 2012, we have enrolled a cumulative total of 110 97 acres This year, in consideration of current resources, we Intend to enroll additional acreage, but not at prior rates Support for Green Kent comes from a variety of sources At this time, the majority of the restoration work is completed by city-funded wetlands crews on Public Works-maintained lands Grant-funded (including this KCD grant) contract crews supplement city resources in forested parks In addition, community engagement and support from outside partners remain vital components of the overall effort In 2013, the 20-year plan's goal is to maintain and support 20 active Stewards to lead volunteer work parties at their sites along with community events planned by staff We are confident we will achieve this goal with KCD support In addition to directly supporting stewards, KCD funding helps us with the vital tasks of mapping and recording our restoration progress, as well as coordinating our efforts with those of other area Green Cities This grant request includes funding for a Green Kent Temporary employee, an intern, a nominal amount of administration of the program, plants and tools for Green Kent Day and Steward work parties, and pro-rated support to Forterra for regional Green Cities Network activities and training for Kent volunteers and staff. Member Jurisdiction &WRIA Forum Grant Application -January 23,2012-Page 1 of 6 HOW/WHY: The Green Kent temporary employee will continue to provide a broad range of technical support to the program Thus far she has created and entered planting plans and all restoration activity into GIS, written monthly e-newsletter content, assisted in creating a Master Steward program with practical reward incentives, and drafted a comprehensive volunteer handbook We are dependent on this position for the technical support necessary to further establish and grow the program We are In a critical point of establishing the program and city staff need some supplemental assistance As part of a new partnership with Green River Community College, one of our goals for the coming year is to fund an internship for one of their students in their Natural Resources degree program Under the supervision of the Green Kent Temporary employee and Special Programs Manager, the intern will support Stewards in the field and provide additional GIS support Depending on the intern's qualifications, s/he may also maintain the Green Kent Partnership's Facebook presence and create planting plans In addition, contracted crews can supplement city resources by performing restoration work in targeted natural areas that do not yet have a Steward We also plan to offer a work party with a contracted crew as a "reward" or incentive to Stewards to help them make more progress and feel supported Another portion of our grant application is for toots for our Stewards and plants for Green Kent Day that we cannot grow in our nursery As our program grows, our need for tools is also growing We are requesting some funds from KCD for these tools, and we will also be approaching REI for resources to grow our tool inventory REI has been very supportive of the Green Kent Partnership and helped with purchases of tools and other supplies this year We are optimistic about their continued support at the same level next year As the Green Kent Partnership matures, our relationship with Forterra continues to evolve At first, the city relied on them for fundamental front-line support As we have been taking on more of those responsibilities, we are turning to Forterra more for their regional leadership and their ability to coordinate among the various Green Cities in such critical areas as outreach, education, potential grant resources and regional promotion Forterra will organize and host four continuing education trainings for Stewards and quarterly focus meetings for Green Cities staff plus an annual forum Our grant request also includes a modest amount for Forterra's participation quarterly at our management team meetings to brief us on regional topics Forterra staff will present an overview of the program to volunteers at the March 23`d Steward orientation Allowable mileage reimbursement Is also Included 2.
