October 4, 1994 Council Present: Christi Houser, Chair; Paul Mann; Jim Bennett Judy Woods, President; Leona Orr Staff Present: Mayor White, May Miller, Cheryl Fraser, Helen Wickstrom, Pamela McFall, Julie Stangle, Tracey Wickersham, Lori Hogan, Sally Gilpin, John Hodgson, Tom Brubaker, Teri Stump Others Present: Jennifer Stoner, Saturday Market; Harold Perantie, Golf Advisory Board; Clarence Foster, WSLCB; Tyler Malei o, Jungle Gym; Mike Powers, Bowen Scarff Ford; Don Wickstrom, 16914 SE 331 st Street, Auburn, WA 98002 SATURDAY MARKET REPORT: Jennifer Stoner presented the Saturday Market Report. Jennifer stated that the biggest determent to the Market is the lack of shelter during rainy weekends. She added that this is the biggest issue to resolve. Revenue is up 29% over last year. A vendor meeting will be held on October 10 for vendor debriefing and discussion on the results of the vendor survey. Councilmember Mann asked about a cover for vendors/customers during inclement weather. Jennifer Stoner has researched canopies; the cost for a 30 x 150 foot canopy is quite expensive, $17,000 and is quite cumbersome to construct. Jennifer suggested leaving it up for the entire season so that the Market could charge a higher rate for vendors utilizing it and they could also extend the Market season (from March/April to November). John Hodgson suggested soliciting a tent and awning company to donate or discount. Jennifer will continue research into tents/canopies. SATURDAY MARKET CONTRACT: This is renewal time for the Saturday Market Contact; John Hodgson requested authorization to make the following changes: 1. Extend the length of the contract from one year to five years. 2. Change the Saturday Market logo. 3. Payment to the Market from $23,000 - $25,000 (allows purchase of replacement equipment). 4. The return from the Market from $30,000 or 20% above $25,000 (whichever is greater). All other items in the contract shall remain the same. Councilmember Bennett suggested the contract also be changed from a 30 -day termination clause to a 60 -day termination clause. Councilmember Mann moved to accept renewal of the Saturday Market Contract and include the above written changes, including changing the 30 -day termination clause to a 60 -day termination clause. Jim Bennett seconded the motion. The vote was unanimous, 3-0. GOLF ADVISORY BOARD REPORT: Harold Perantie summarized the unapproved minutes from the Golf Advisory Board meeting of September 28, 1994, as follows. May Miller reported that revenue was lower than expected on the 18 -hole range and mini putt. The Women's Club voiced concerns over the poor phone coverage at the Golf complex. The Men's Club donated $2,000 to Junior Golf; they now have 1,050 members and will be hosting the TGA Club Championship on October 8. The Pro -Shop has been renovated and staff is doing well. The Advisory Board voted unanimously not to implement a resident fee this year. Councilmember Bennett will talk to the Advisory Board in November, with implementation of a resident discount fee plan by next spring. John Hodgson will have a program prepared by that time. John then recommended the Advisory Board have more structure and proposed the Board develop By -Laws; the Board voted and agreed unanimously. 1.i Mayor White advised the council that John Hodgson is the legal advisor for the Golf Course as written in the S.S. M.D. contract and bonds and that the enterprise fund is set up to pay for itself, it is not general fund. GOLF COURSE MASTER PLAN: John Hodgson reviewed the conceptual plan for the Golf Course Master Plan. Reports were distributed on the Facility Improvement Plan, Golf Complex Revenue Bonds/Refunding and Capital Improvements Analysis and a Proposal for Providing Revenue Effecting Enhancements from S.S.M.D. Some components of the Parks Department Facility Improvement Plan include: 1. Re -design driving range 2. Increase netting height 3. Re -design mini putt 4. Increase paving in high traffic areas 5. Add tees 6. Extend designated fairways 7. Construct pond on 13 and Par 3 8. Rebuild greens on 14 9. Construct irrigation system. May Miller discussed the financial and investment portion of the Master Plan. She stated that the proposed investment of bonds to finance this venture was sound. Councilmember Mann asked Mayor White's feeling on this investment; Mayor White stated that it was a logical step to take. John Hodgson asked for authorization to re -finance and proceed with design. Chair Houser said that she wants to have more time to review the documents which were distributed at the meeting. Councilmember Bennett stated that he hoped this project doesn't take as long as the Golf Course restrooms project has. John Hodgson accepted full responsibility for the delay in restroom construction which was done in-house to save money and added that this project would be done through outside services. TUDOR SQUARE: This project is a cooperative effort between the Tudor Square neighborhood and the Parks and Recreation Department. John Hodgson reported that Jack Ball and Public Works have been working together to level and move the dirt from playground construction. A playground "raising" party is scheduled for November; the council will be invited. ' YOUTH/TEEN PROGRAM UPDATE: John Hodgson read the council minutes which authorized the development of a Youth/Teen Program. John reiterated that 16 months ago a proposal was accepted to create a teen program focusing on East Hill, Valley and West Hill of Kent, developed to match the "Target Issues" outlined by the City Council and Ordinance 3174, as it was written and accepted. Project overview: Expand Project Lighthouse; Apartment Based Recreation; Teen Leadership; Mobile Recreation; Outdoor/Environmental Programs; Outreach; Late Night Basketball and an Arts Program through the King County Arts Commission. The city-wide youth/teen committee has been meeting to coordinate mutual efforts for youths. Discussion has surrounded developing partnerships: school coalition; community coalition; business coalition and a youth/teen summer employment program. Page 2 John Hodgson continued withOview of the program budget. Chair Oser was concerned with too much money going to staff salaries; she asked about contingencies, supplies, computers, etc. John Hodgson replied that these items are figured into the budget and that he wants to put as much staff as possible on the street. He wants to create partnerships with the community and limit the purchase of supplies. Councilmember Bennett referenced redundancies in the programming and asked who this will single out. John responded that it singles out at -risk kids. Chair Houser asked about what Apartment complexes this involves. John replied, they will go to as many as the money takes them; by getting the most for our money and working cooperatively with the apartment complexes. He added that the programs might be redundant, but we need to go where the youth are; to find out how to get them involved. It is proven successful in other park youth programs. Councilmember Bennett asked that an oversight committee be set up to monitor the results; he doesn't see results in the existing Lighthouse Program. Chair Houser asked for any statistics on Project Lighthouse. John Hodgson stated that he is not prepared with statistics, but he has this information. John added that some programs will be successful and some won't. If not, they will move on. Chair Houser stated the importance of jobs for youth. John Hodgson replied that jobs are out there and added that when he started this program he was directed to create a recreation program for youth and that is what he did. Chair Houser responded that this it was exactly what they asked for and better than what was expected. Mayor White added that he is putting the finishing touches on the Mayor's Youth Advisory Council that will be implemented through his office on youth programs; this might address Councilmember Bennett's request that an oversight committee be established. John Hodgson asked for authorization to proceed with staffing for the program. Chair Houser responded that tonight is not enough notice for action. Councilmember Bennett added that he will not vote to proceed. John Hodgson stated that he needs direction, he wants to get started. Chair Houser reiterated that she wants time to study packets prior to authorization to proceed. JUNGLE GYM: Tyler Maleiko introduced himself, Clarence Foster Liquor Enforcement Agent of the WSLC Board, Mike Powers, Shop Foreman at Bowen Scarff Ford and referenced Russ Stringham, owner of the Hungry Bear; all are involved in the proposed teen center plan. He shared statistics on crime rates for youth and stated that at -risk kids tell him they want to "do Won their own. This plan would address their needs by encompassing three popular youth venues: a health club, a social club and a restaurant. The center would be run by youth with minor staff supervision. An automotive mentorship program would also be available. The youth would earn credit for working at the center and for proper behavior. They can spend this credit at the youth center (it would be open to the public too). Tyler mentioned using the empty building on 4th and Meeker, which is 16,000 sf. Tyler Malejko then asked that the utility tax money be allocated to his proposed Youth Center. Councilmember Bennett said it has some innovative ideas and that the committee needs the opportunity to look at the Parks program and the co-op teen center. Council Chair Houser asked for legal issues. Tom Brubaker responded that it would depend on the particular facts of this proposal; pertaining to financial structure. DIler Malejko stated that he spoke to City Attorney Roger Lubovich who felt it could be worked out. Page 3 M Mike Powers of Bowen ScaWord, Kent resident, Chair for the Vo tional Education for Kent High School and Advisory Chair for Kent School District Automotive Advisory Board. He stated that he is actively involved in youth services in the community and stated that this program is self sufficient. He has never seen such a promising program and that the program funds itself. He added that if the program doesn't work, no money is lost. Clarence Foster, Liquor Enforcement Agent of WSLCB for the Kent area said he and Tyler started a non- profit "America Drug Free Promotions Group". He has degrees in criminal justice, business and sociology; he understands at -risk youth. Through his position he has a lot of interaction with kids on the street. They currently go to local schools and present a drug/alcohol program and put on a power lifting presentation to peak kid's interest. He commented that businesses are very interested in helping local youth programs financially. Councilmember Mann commented on how exciting it is to see this focus on our youth. He also asked John to see if they can incorporate these programs together. He is concerned that the City of Kent's "Target Issues" don't refer to programs for just at -risk youth, they refer to programs for all youth in the community. John Hodgson asked what we do if another program is proposed. Chair Houser referred to Tom Brubaker. Tom replied that a request for proposals from the public at -large would have to be submitted and would delay initialization of a program 2-1/2 to 6 months. Tyler Malejko added that their staff position would be in an advisory capacity and would be only 10% of the funds. Councilmember Mann asked Tyler if all of the councilmembers have received his plan; Tyler said they have. Clarence Foster of the WSLCB stated that it would be a shame if the city didn't give everyone a chance to present a program; that it would be better to have all of the ideas than just one.
