Page 1 Meeting Minutes KEN Parks and Human Services MT June 21, 2012 Call to order: Chair Debbie Ranniger called the meeting to order at: 5:04 p.m. Council Present: Chair Debbie Ranniger, Elizabeth Albertson, Dana Ralph Item No. 1: Minutes of May 17, 2012 Albertson moved to approve the Parks and Human Services meeting minutes dated May 17, 2012. Ralph seconded. The motion passed 3-0. Item No. 2: King Conservation District Grant Agreement for EarthCorps Services - Approve Hope Gibson, Manager of Parks Planning and Development explained that Victoria Andrews applied for and received a "King County Wild Places in City Spaces" grant of $6,650.00 to continue restoration work at Earthworks Park. The work is part of the overall Green Kent Initiative to restore urban forestry by utilizing a contracted crew to remove invasive plants from the hillside and stream bank. Volunteers will then replant with 300 native species similar to those presently found growing at the site and the crew will return to spread cardboard and mulch. The contract with EarthCorps is fully executed, the project will begin. Ralph moved to recommend Council accept the $6,650.00 in grant funds from King Conservation District to contract with EarthCorps for services at Earthworks Park and approve the expenditure of funds in the General Fund Budget. Albertson seconded. The motion passed 3-0. Item No. 3: BeraerABAM Agreement Amendment for Lake Fenwick Proiect - Authorize Hope reported that the floating walkway at Lake Fenwick Park is vital to the functionality of the park because it connects the bulkhead area and the East Ridge trail with the boat launch. In recent years the rotting and sinking of the walkway has begun to accelerate. The original contract initiated design for a new Lake Fenwick Floating Walkway in the same footprint as the original that gave the city needed flexibility due to budget uncertainties. This amendment, in the amount of $29,989.00, picks up where the design work stopped and completes the permitting process. This will allow the Parks Department to move forward with this time sensitive work, replacing the existing structures as soon as funding becomes available. Once funding becomes available the project will begin. Page 1 Page 2 Albertson moved to recommend Council authorize the Mayor to sign Amendment Number Nine with BergerABAM for additional design services on the Lake Fenwick Floating Walkway Project, subject to final terms and conditions acceptable to the City Attorney and the Parks Director. Ralph seconded. The motion passed 3-0. Item No. 4: Sports Install West Agreement for Wilson Plavfield Proiect - Authorize Garin Lee, Superintendent of Park Operations stated that this contract will address projects at Wilson Playfields including: repair areas of settling in the perimeter track, replace the synthetic turf worn from use, located at the north field soccer goal and south field pitching area, and replace the infield soil home plate area in the north field with synthetic turf. This is a series of ongoing maintenance until the entire turf can be replaced. Garin confirmed that results from the safety testing report recorded the fields show below the safety threshold and need to be replaced. Ralph moved to recommend Council authorize the Mayor to sign the agreement with Sports Install West for $29,689.40, plus Washington State Sales Tax, to complete maintenance repairs at Wilson Playfield, subject to review and approval by the City Attorney and the Parks Director. Albertson seconded. The motion passed 3-0. Item No. 5: Human Services Funding Strateav - INFO ONLY Ranniger explained that funding for human services has been negatively impacted by the creation of the RFA, annexation, and the economy. Merina Hanson, Senior Coordinator in the Housing and Human Services division reported that Council was very generous to give human services a one-time budget adjustment last year of $95,000 to keep services at the same funding level as the prior year, and that the Commission completed their promise to research other funding strategies to find a sustainable funding source. Oriana Pon, Chair of the Human Services Commission, explained that the Commission discussed multiple funding strategies and settled upon a per capita approach with a CPI escalator as the best option to consistently fund human services. Merina referenced funding trends over a ten year period, noting that in 2009 and 2010 the city was at $9.30 per capita but, based on baseline budget projections for 2013, the amount will be $6.08. The Commission proposes at $7.22 per capita funding rate in 2013, with a CPI escalator increase every funding cycle beginning in 2015. The CPI will not exceed 3% or drop below 1% and will be applied against the former years per capita rate. Using a per capita funding model is prudent and eliminates the significant swings in funding levels caused by the economy. Ranniger wanted to explain that per capita means per person and that these funds come from the general fund. Ralph supports the human services ordinance and relates the same properties to the Arts Commission funding ordinance, except for the addition of a CPI escalator. Page 2 Page 3 Ranniger calculated that in 2013, the amount dedicated to human services would be $853,000. Albertson reminded everyone that this number may look big, but that Kent's population has increased and the proposed per capita rate is actually a decrease compared to the past few years. She added that with all the hits human services has taken with Federal and State funding reductions, she would like to see a larger amount dedicated to these services. Ralph supports the proposed adjustment and, without having the entire budget picture, doesn't feel comfortable increasing the amount at this time. Katherin Johnson, Manager of Housing and Human Services stated that this proposal represents a reasonable amount to support human services. The ordinance will go to Operations as an informational item and then to Council during the budget hearings for adoption.

Mission To provide leadership in establishing cultural opportunities and arts education, to improve the quality of life and enhance the aesthetic environment and to promote Kent as a center for great arts. How do you define your community? (Consider audiences, content producers, and supporters/volunteers.) On the broadest level, our community consists of the diverse population of the City of Kent and the Kent School District service area - approximately 120,000 people. We are committed to providing access for all citizens to quality arts experiences. 2009 attendance at our programs totaled more than 135,000. Our audience characteristics vary and reflect the community's diverse ages, ethnicities and economic statuses. Ethnic minorities make up 30% of Kent's population. We have made progress in developing multicultural audiences by presenting ethnic art forms and engaging in grass roots promotions. More than 40% of Kent residents are considered low income and we employ a variety of efforts to increase participation from these residents, including free outreach activities and admission vouchers. In addition to our own programs, we provide support and funding for local arts groups. Approximately $10,000 is awarded to five or six organizations annually, to support projects ranging from musical Page 16 theater and chorale performances to a youth poetry program and activities for senior citizens and developmentally disabled populations. The Kent Arts Commission, which consists of 12 mayor-appointed volunteers, advises and assists staff on an on-going basis. Volunteers of all ages also contribute approximately 650 hours annually to our programs. What have been your organization's most significant programmatic accomplishments in the last two years? We have had successes in both our performing and public art programs during the past two years. The 2008-2009 Spotlight Series featured 16 performances and "Spotlight on Arts" brought live performance to 747 people in educational settings. In 2009-2010, Spotlight Series featured 15 performances and total attendance increased 19% from 4,420 to 5,270 - an all time high. Twenty outdoor concerts are presented each year as part of our free Summer Concert Series, which draws 7,500 people. We continue to see success in programs for children and families, including strong participation in the annual Kent Kids'Arts Day and Student Art Exhibit. "Summer Nights and the Silver Screen"were launched In 2009 at Town Square Plaza. This new series of free outdoor movies was well-received and attended. In the area of public art, significant achievements included continued restoration and promotion of Herbert Bayer's Earthworks. A premiere screening of the documentary A Place for People: The Herbert Bayer Earthworks took place at the Henry Auditorium on the University of Washington campus in September of 2009. We were pleased to receive a grant of $70,000 for restoration projects through the National Trust for Historical Preservation's Partners in Preservation program. A concerted public engagement effort, including two public events, helped the Earthworks finish 12th of 25 properties. Our gallery hosted exhibits, including Marvels of Modernism, documenting cultural landscapes throughout the country, including Bayer's Earthworks, which was one of 12 designees chosen from hundreds of nominations from around the nation. Public art project, Sweet Suite for Downtown Kent by Elizabeth Conner was dedicated at Kent's Town Square Plaza. What have been your organization's most significant administrative accomplishments in the last two years? A significant administrative accomplishment has been managing City-wide budget reductions, with an effort to maintain high-quality programs that are relevant and serve citizens of Kent. Our full-time staff decreased 20% in the last year and we lost funding for temporary, part-time help as well. By realigning staff duties, and making careful decisions based on mission, impact and financial factors, we have been able to maintain the majority of our programs and services with minimal reductions. We have increased our efforts to obtain grants and sponsorships to bolster capital and project funding. Notable successes include, receiving $25,000 from the National Endowment for the Arts' Mayors Initiative on City Design grant program. Funds will support a bicycle tour and public outreach campaign, linking the Herbert Bayer Earthworks, the Robert Morris Earthwork, the Green River Natural Resources Area and Lorna Jordan's Waterworks Gardens. We also received $6,500 in American Revitalization and Reinvestment Act funding through a 4Culture grant to continue hiring professional performing artists to participate in Kent's Fourth of July Splash Festival. And, we maintained our free summer programming - movies and concerts - at previous levels by obtaining additional sponsorship funding. What do you hope to accomplish in the next two years and what are your challenges? We will implement the 2010-2012 City Art Plan, including a career retrospective exhibit for renowned Kent artist Danny Pierce. The exhibit will take place September through October 2010, and correspond with the artist's 90th birthday, Wenatchee Valley Museum is hosting a similar exhibit and partnering with us on promotional efforts. We will realize a bicycle tour and public outreach campaign funded by NEA Mayors' Initiative on City Design. This cultural tourism project, linking Herbert Bayer Earthworks (Kent), Robert Morris Earthworks (Seatac), Green River Natural Resources Area (Kent) and Lorna Jordan's Waterworks Gardens (Renton), will allow us to promote our cultural heritage through new and existing partnerships. We will implement grant funded restoration projects at Herbert Bayer's Earthworks, install public art in Kent's new Panther Lake annexation area, and continue to maintain and repair our existing public art collection through continued partnerships with the community, including Kent Downtown Partnership, Kent Historical Society, private cultural tour businesses and Kent School District. We will build on the success of our Spotlight Series of performing arts events and refocus the scope and direction of the season within new budget realities. We will strive for high quality, balance of genres, ethnic diversity and offerings for youth, while focusing on a smaller, self-sustaining series. Continuing our sponsorship program will allow us to increase revenue and expand potential for higher profile artists. Page n Budget reductions are our biggest challenge as we complete 2010 and move into 2011. Maintaining high quality programs with decreased staff and resources will be difficult in the coming months and years. A major challenge will be achieving the mandate for Spotlight Series to be self-sustaining while maintaining the quality and diversity of the series. Obtaining sponsorship support remains difficult in the current economic environment and event production costs are rising. Providing necessary stewardship and maintenance of the City's art collection with limited resources is an ongoing challenge. Reduction of funding has diminished capacity for incorporating art into current and future capital projects and conducting necessary maintenance on the existing collection.

Twenty-nine agencies are being funded by the general fund and CDBG to provide services through 34 programs in 2012. All programs met their performance measures for the first quarter of 2012. Second Quarter performance reports will not be available until mid-July. The 2013/2014 Human Services Funding Request for Proposal opened on March 15 and closed on April 26. The City of Kent participated for the second time in the Human Service Funders Collaborative, a group of 18 King County cities that request RFPs through an online process. A total of $14,695,305.00 was requested by 273 programs county-wide. The City of Kent received $1,972,287 in requests from 91 programs. The success of this collaborative effort was due to the leadership and staff work provided by the cities of Kent, Bellevue and Redmond. Each city provided staff that conducted an RFP to find a vendor capable of providing the level of software required for an online grant process that will extend beyond the common application to centralized reporting so that agencies can submit their reports to all 18 cities through a single portal. Agencies will also be able to invoice cities through the same portal. Staff from Kent, Bellevue and Redmond led the effort by working with the vendor to develop the final product, and also worked with the cities to develop consensus on the application, provided support to the applicants through online technical assistance, as well as staffed training workshops and 3 computer labs. This combined effort resulted in less than 225 requests for assistance compared to the 1500+ requests received during the last cycle. Additionally this tool allowed our Commissioners to do an online review of the applications for the first time. The Commissioners met several times in May and June to review, rate, and make funding recommendations. The Kent Taskforce on Homelessness held its first of four meetings Friday June 8tn This group, chaired by the City of Kent Human Services Commission and the Kent Chamber of Commerce, is made up of concerned residents, business owners, service providers, faith leaders, Kent Police, and service consumers.

Benson Crest owners were collecting payments for water and garbage; however the owner of the property neglected to make the appropriate payments for the respective services. Customer Service staff and Human Services staff worked together to ensure that renters were notified well in advance about the possibility of water shut off, and Human Services staff provided resources for the renters to call. Our office was inundated with phone calls and staff worked with numerous residents to walk them through the process for working with the Landlord Tenant Union, etc. Fortunately the owners made a last minute payment, and while it was not for the entire amount due, it was significant enough to postpone the water shut off. Staff will continue to monitor the situation. Performance Outcomes Increased stability of community resources 1. How much did we do?
