Parks and Human Services Committee Meeting
April 18, 2013
N'nSaINGTGN
Council Committee Members: Chair Debbie Ranniger, Elizabeth Albertson, Dana
Ralph
Chair Debbie Ranniger called the meeting to order at 5:03 p.m.
Item 1: Minutes of March 28, 2013 - Approve
Committeemember Ralph moved to approve the minutes dated March 28,
2013. Committeemember Albertson seconded. The motion passed 3-0.
Item 2: Naming of Fire/Police Department Exercise Room - INFO ONLY
Fire Chief Jim Schneider spoke of City of Kent Firefighter Marty Hauer who was an
International Association of Firefighters Peer Fitness Trainer. He devoted his entire
career to the promotion of health and wellness, as well as advocating for early
detection of cancer. Firefighter Hauer contracted a rare form of cancer that was not
detected in prescreening and he passed away at the age of 41. Marty spent his last
five years on the development of a Regional Wellness Center designed to serve many
fire and police departments in the Seattle, Kent, and Tacoma area. Because of
Marty's dedication, the Kent Fire Department RFA would like to name the Joint
Fire/Police exercise room, at Fire Station 74, located at 24611 116th Avenue SE, in
memory of Firefighter Marty Hauer.
The Kent Fire Department RFA leases Fire Station 74 from the City of Kent so Chief
Schneider conferred with CAO John Hodgson and Police Chief Thomas and received
approval. Chief Schneider noted that since the naming policy refers to facilities and
parks, naming a room does not require a formal process. If moving forward, the
dedication would occur on Wednesday, June 19, 2013 at the scheduled Kent Fire
Department RFA Governance Board meeting.
Director Watling reiterated that this exercise room is used by public safety staff only
and not a public space, so there is no need to take formal action as traditionally
required through Parks and Recreation Policy 1.14 - Naming Parks and Facilities. The
Committeemembers unanimously agreed that it is a wonderful idea and fully support
it. They felt no reason to take formal action. Facilities staff will be directed to proceed
with Chief Schneider on naming the room.
3. King Conservation District Grant Agreement for Green Kent
Partnership - Accept/Authorize
Park Planning and Development Manager Hope Gibson reported that this is year four
that staff applied for and received a grant from the King Conservation District to
continue implementation of the Green Kent Partnership. Specifically, this grant
funding breakdown is: $29,747.76 for a Green Kent temporary employee (includes
Page 1
Page 2
allowable mileage stipend) and $2,365.78 for an intern, both to supplement available
Parks personnel and provide field support to stewards, $15,794 to Forterra for
regional coordination and trainings, $9,000 for contracted crew work, $1,370 for tools
and plants, and $4,125 to offset the Special Programs Manager's time overseeing the
project.
Director Watling commented on the positive three way partnership with Forterra, King
Conservation District, and the City of Kent. Director Watling commended the Park
Planning staff on taking the lead on this funding and the successful management of
the Green Kent Program.
Committeemember Albertson moved to recommend accepting the
$62,402.54 King Conservation District grant, authorizing the Mayor to sign
the agreement and approving the expenditure of funds in the Green Kent
Partnership budget. Committeemember Ralph seconded. The motion passed
3-0.
Item 4: 2013 First Quarter Fee-in-Lieu Funds — Accept
Manager Gibson reported that between January 1, 2013 and March 31, 2013, the City
of Kent received a total of $70,125.00 from the following developer who voluntarily
paid fees in lieu of dedicating park land to mitigate the development of single family
homes in local subdivisions:
Springwood Park budget: $54,825.00 from Henley USA LLC
• Springwood Park budget: $15,300.00 from Henley USA LLC
Committeemember Ralph moved to recommend accepting the $70,125.00
fee-in-lieu funds and amending the Community Parks Reinvestment budget
for future expenditure of funds in the Springwood Park budget.
Committeemember Albertson seconded. The motion passed 3-0.
Item 5: Recreation Conservation Office Grant Agreement Amendment -
Accept/Authorize
Manager Gibson stated that Victoria Andrews is extraordinary in obtaining grants for
some of the programmatic work we do and Brian Levenhagen is exceptional in
obtaining grants for some of the park development projects.
The city has an agreement with the Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO)
Washington Wildlife and Recreation Program and this amendment awards the city
$144,880.00 in additional funds to reimburse the purchase of the Schulte property.
This .71 acre site will be included in the Clark Lake Assemblage.
Director Watling added that these funds are part of completing the land acquisition of
the Schulte property with full grant funding. Director Watling also complimented Brian
Levenhagen in doing a fantastic job as we've been very strategic in our acquisitions
and our grant funding options.

2013 First Ouarter Report and Contributions Report - INFO ONLY
Director Watling highlighted division programs and services, as well as in-kind,
and/or cash contributions received during the first quarter of 2013.
Riverbend. In looking closely at the first quarter of 2013, the revenues are up in all
four revenue centers at the Riverbend Golf Complex. That is 30% up in revenue from
2011 and 2012 comparably, and it is approximately a $90,000 improvement in the
first quarter alone.
Park Operations. During the spring season, we have a lot of preparation happening
within our park acreage. The crews are conducting safety compaction in our play
areas during the first quarter of the year and bringing in two cubic yards of bark for
our play areas.
Athletic Complexes. Staff is prepping for a busy tournament season as we are careful
to amend the soil to have the right mix. Approximately 26 tons of infield mix has
been spread onto our fields to minimize injuries and maximize use.
Kent Commons. We had over 65,000 customers at Kent Commons during the first
quarter of 2013. A couple years ago, due to budget decisions, we consolidated
Adaptive Recreation and Youth/Teen staff and services over to Kent Commons. We
have begun to see high synergy within the programs at Kent Commons. One very
popular family program is the Indoor Park with an average of 70 customers per day.
Rentals. We've added four additional shelter spaces to rent this year. We anticipate
over 70,000 people will be served through our reservation program.
Phoenix Academy. The center continues to be very innovative. Director Watling
commended super volunteer Tremain McPherson. Tremain provides supervision in the
game room at Phoenix Academy. Besides offering regular activities such as pool, ping
pong, foosball and video game tournaments, we have begun to train teens for job
skills and resume building. The two teens that committed to the program and worked
with Tremain have jobs now.
Contributions Report. This report demonstrates the work of our staff throughout the
department. This is reflective of donations of $5,000 and less, none that require
formal action. We received over $21,000 from residents and businesses from cash
and in-kind gifts. We are very thankful and honored to partner with them.
Quarterly Reporting. Director Watling asked Committeemembers if the Quarterly
Report is of value and if they'd like it packaged differently. Comm itteemem bers Ralph
and Albertson were in agreement that the report holds a wealth of knowledge and
they appreciate seeing the depth of our services and they impact the community.

Page 4
To share this information with the remaining Councilmembers and the public, Chair
Ranniger suggested presenting a quarterly report at the City Council meetings.
Committeemembers recommended a distilled report, modeled after the Public Safety
Report, showing graphs, statistics, and trends with a focus on key seasonal
programs. Debbie will talk to President Higgins for approval.
Director's Report
Volunteer events. Earth Day Saturday, April 20 at Clark Lake Park is already full.
Arbor Day is on April 27 at West Fenwick Park and National Trails Day is May 18 at
Lake Fenwick Park. Registrations are going great. Committeemembers were invited to
stop by.
Tournament Season. We received some proof of the economic benefit resulting from
our tournaments. Service Clubs up on East Hill has become a haven for our girls fast
pitch tournaments. We recently received call from Safeway up at Kent Kangley,
asking for a tournament schedule because their deli was sold out by two teams from
Canada playing in a tournament at Service Club Ballfields.
King County Parks Levy. Director Watling addressed the Council's request for an
update on the proposed King County Parks Levy going on the ballot in August.
Director Watling served on the task force that helped shape what that levy looked
like. This is a renewal - in 2004, the levy was on the ballot for 5 cents per $100,000
and was a stop gap to keep parks open. In 2008, it was renewed as two levies that
totaled 10 cents per $100,000. The 2013 proposed levy is 18.9 cents per $100,000.
It is important to note that the levy has become King County Park's primary funding
source. It is not a levy for local and regional parks. A majority of the funds would
support operation of King County's larger regional facilities such as: Burke Gilman
Trail, East Lake Sammamish Trail, portions of the Green River Trail, the Cedar Trail,
Marymoor Park, and the Woodland Park Zoo. This levy supports King County
operating expenses for the regional system, capital reinvestment, deferred
maintenance, as well as their strategic plan for acquisitions. From the 18.9 cents, 1.3
cents is proposed to be divided up by 39 cities, based on population and acreage.
Previously, County levy funding was for acquisition or trail funding. In this proposed
levy, the 1.3 cents for local cities would support any capital needs within its local
system. For Kent, it would represent about $200,000 per year.
It's now with the King County Council to make the decision. If the levy is placed on
the August ballot, it would then transition into campaign mode. Director Watling feels
it is a very important measure for the regional system, but it is tough knowing the
plight of local systems - including our own aging infrastructure. He is concerned about
sustainability and that this growing levy is only supporting the regional system, not
the local systems. He feels we need to find ways to get funding back into our local
systems.
Committeemember Albertson believes local cities should get a bigger portion of the
levy. She struggles with residents thinking the levy sends sufficient funds to local
cities. This may cause tension from residents wondering why local cities don't have
enough reinvestment funding for parks if they just passed a parks levy.
Page 4
Page 5
Committeemember Ralph feels it's a struggle for system capacity. At some point
system-wide, we are going hit that capacity and the dollars aren't necessarily going
to be available. In integrating the parks we've acquired from the regional system into
the city, the money hasn't followed. It's not enough funding to bring those parks up
to city standard.
Director Watling said that if we really want to think about sustainability, we need to
look at the relationship between the regional and the local system. The city has been
part of solving the County budget problem since 2003, when they transferred their
high use parks and facilities to local cities. Cities continue to fund the operation of
those parks as well. They are united systems that lean on each other. As residents
think of park systems, it consists of both local and regional park amenities. It is going
to be very important to make sure both regional and local parks are supported,
funded and vibrant.
Committeemember Albertson is concerned with the consequences if the levy doesn't
pass. As King County's primary funding source, what happens in shoring up the
regional assets she's paid for and enjoyed for so long? It is similar to school districts
using levy funding for day-to-day operations and not system improvements and
larger projects.
Committeemember Albertson asked for clarification on cities having the opportunity
to submit a list of parks for funding, if the levy passed. Director Watling responded
no, there is no application process to King County. There is just the potential of Kent
getting approximately $200,000 based on the 1.3 cents. Continuing, Director Watling
said, when we looked at the work with our citizens group and some of the
reinvestment needs we have, Wilson Playfields Renovation is at $1.8M and the Lake
Meridian new dock is at $1.5M. The two hundred thousand dollars will help, but it's a
different list in terms of how we reinvest those funds in order to keep our parks
functioning.
Chair Ranniger adjourned the meeting at 5:43 p.m.

Community
a) Describe your community.
b) How is it changing?
We suggest you use about 250 words.
a) Kent is a suburb of 118,000 between Seattle and Tacoma; it is the sixth largest city in the state. Kent
is geographically large as well, with an area of 33 square miles. Ethnic minorities make up 44% of our
population, a figure that has increased 60% since the 2000 census. In 2006, 27% of Kent residents were
foreign-born and among people at least five years old, 32% spoke a language other than English. There
are over 100 languages spoken by students in the Kent School District, including Spanish, Ukranian,
Punjabi, Somali, Vietnamese, Russian, Tagalog, Cambodian, Korean, and Chinese. Kent is the fourth
largest manufacturing and distribution center in the United States; it is home to 4,500 businesses and
approximately 78,000 jobs. Kent's $8 billion gross business income is the highest among its peer cities in
South King County. However, our median household income is 21% lower than the rest of King County,
and 15% of Kent residents are in poverty (compared to 10% in King County overall). The inconvenience
and expense of traveling to Seattle limit access to the arts in Kent.
b) The Kent community is continuously changing - becoming ever more diverse and urban. Ethnic
diversity has steadily increased over the past decade and we expect that trend to continue as Kent
becomes home to more foreign immigrants. As our downtown area becomes more urban, we are striving
to make it more of a dynamic and vibrant core for our geographically sprawling community. Additionally,
one of the City Council's strategic goals is to develop a strong network of neighborhoods and
neighborhood urban centers. Kent's sprawling geography creates challenges in developing a strong
community core. Our award-winning parks system and school district continue to assist in achieving this
goal.
Programming
a) Haw does your programming respond to your community needs?
b)What program are you most proud of and why?
We suggest you use about 250 words.
a) We are committed to providing access for all citizens to quality arts experiences. 2011 attendance at
our programs totaled more than 40,000. Participant characteristics vary and reflect the community's
diverse ages, ethnicities and economic statuses. Over 40% of Kent residents are considered low Income
and we employ a variety of efforts to increase participation from these residents, including free concerts,
outreach activities, and admission vouchers. We have made progress in developing multicultural
audiences by presenting ethnic art forms and engaging in grass roots promotions within different ethnic
groups. Developing relationships with leaders and members of each group is the most effective tool in
engaging and serving these communities. It is time-consuming work and we are slowly beginning to see
results. In addition to incorporating diverse art forms in our own programming, we recently launched
"Give Me Culture," a new grant program to broaden participation in, and showcasing of, arts and cultural
activities by ethnically diverse and underserved communities.
b) As a municipal arts commission, our mandate is to serve the large and diverse population of Kent.
Our programming must serve varied interests, build community, and educate citizens. Because of this
broad mission, we are most proud of the diversity of our programming, rather than any one program in
particular. Our performing arts program features more than 30 performances annually, including free
summer concerts in the parks and "Spotlight Series" shows ranging from bluegrass and classical music to
modern dance and Indian slide guitar. Our educational outreach program brings acclaimed artists such as
the Brubeck Brothers Quartet into high schools to work with jazz students, as well as,Hawaiian, Creole,
and Indian artists into community settings to share their knowledge and skills. Our public art program
runs the gamut from the internationally acclaimed Bayer Earthworks, to murals created by "at risk"
students. Kent Kids' Arts Day is an annual event that features a dozen hands-on projects, giving kids
and families the opportunity to learn about and create through various mediums. 4th of July Splash

brings our community together in a large festival format, and our two funding programs support and
nurture local artists and organizations.
Management
a) How is your agency structured?
b) How do you collaborate with other municipal departments and community agencies?
c) How does your agency faster the development of art,local artists,and local arts organizations?
We suggest you use about 250 words.
a) The Kent Arts Commission was established by City Ordinance in 1975. It is an advisory board of 12 to
15 volunteer citizens, appointed by the Mayor to promote cultural programs and provide citizen input to
the planning of arts and cultural activities in Kent. City staff within the Cultural Programs Division of
Kent's Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department provides support to this group. The
Commission is directed by the Cultural Programs Manager, and professionally staffed by an Arts
Coordinator and an Administrative Assistant.
b) We work extensively with Public Works, Parks Planning and Development, and Parks Maintenance to
incorporate new public art into capital projects and park improvements, as well as to conserve and
maintain existing works. We regularly collaborate with our Senior Center, Youth/Teen Program, and
Inclusive Recreation group to bring arts experiences to specific populations. We work with Housing and
Human Services to tackle issues such as food security, and recently won the South King Council of
Human Services Human Services and Equity Award for an Organization for our Reel Grrls' Youth Food
Security Art Project that engaged youth filmmakers on the issue of hunger. Collaboration with Police,
Fire, and Public Works Departments is important to security, traffic, and logistics involved in large
events. We also work with service clubs (Lions, Rotary), social service agencies (Kent Youth and Family
Services), and libraries in the planning, promotion, and delivery of programs. We have a long-standing
mutual use agreement with the Kent School District that allows us to utilize school theaters for
performances. We work with the ShoWare Center to co-present larger scale concerts, and are also
continuing our new cultural tourism partnership with Cascade Bicycle Club, Renton, SeaTac, and 4Culture
Public Art that promotes the Earthworks in the Green River Valley.
c) We foster the development of local art, artists, and organizations through two grant programs.
Community Arts Support Program (CASP) provides financial support for projects by arts and cultural
organizations, community groups and individual artists. The program encourages, develops and supports
community arts programming that serves the general public, and provides opportunities for innovation
and development of unique services outside the scope of our existing programming. In 2012, we
launched the Give Me Culture program, which offers small, flexible grants for arts, culture, and heritage
projects by ethnically diverse and underserved communities. There is a rolling deadline and each
applicant is provided with technical assistance in conceiving their project, preparing their application, and
implementing their plan.
Future
a) What plans does your agency have for advancing its mission?
b)What are the challenges?
c)if sustained Support funding were reduced or eliminated, how would your activities be Impacted?
We suggest you use about 2so words.
a) The Kent Arts Commission determines key initiatives and challenges as part of the City's annual
budget process. City Council sets strategic goals and-the Arts Commission annually reviews,programs
and sets goals with these broad, strategic goals in mind. Our City Art Ordinance requires us to establish
One-Year and Five-Year City Art Plans that guide the allocation of our $2 per capita public art funding.
These plans are reviewed and approved by City Council. Immediate plans include:
-Implement the 2012-2016 City Art Plan, including a new community project: Kent Arts DIY. Kent Arts
DIY (Do-It-Yourself) will foster inclusiveness by highlighting the talent and creativity of the Kent
flA•urpu ndritvoA?nnf%20Kent%20Arts%20Commission/City%20of%20Kent%20Arts%20Commission_0001_FleldData.html[3/27/2013 2:30:23 PM]
Page 22
community. Participants will showcase their projects (traditional, community, and/or fell( arts) online. The
plan also includes a continued focus on providing interpretive tours about Kent's cultural and historic
resources, and on promoting and maintaining our existing collection through continued partnerships with
the community.
-Maintain 2010 budget adjustments to Spotlight Series of performing arts events. Strive for high quality,
balance of genres, ethnic diversity and offerings for youth, while focusing on a smaller, self-sustaining
series.
-Ensure ethnic diversity is reflected in programming choices. Continue to generate and implement
strategies to expand audience participation among diverse citizens.
b) Maintaining high quality programs with decreased staff and resources is our biggest challenge. In
2010, we eliminated one FTE in the Cultural Programs division (reducing full time staff 20%), cut a
number of related programs and implemented 10-15% reductions in many remaining programs. The City
anticipates continued budget strains and potential cuts as we move into 2013. Continuing to meet the
cultural programming needs of an increasingly diverse community with limited staff is an on-going
challenge. Achieving the mandate for Spotlight Series of performing arts events to be self-sustaining will
be a significant challenge. Obtaining sponsorship support remains difficult in the current economic
environment, and event production costs continue to rise.
c) The City of Kent has a long history of supporting arts and culture. Our arts commission is one of the
oldest in the state and our City leadership has remained committed to funding arts and culture as
important elements of a vibrant community. We feel confident that the arts will continue to be an
integral part of city services in Kent. However, loss or reduction of Sustained Support funding would
definitely be an impact. Our annual award has been $17,000 - a significant amount that makes a real
impact on our ability to leverage local support, continue core programming and take risks with new ideas
and projects. Strong Sustained Support funding sends a clear message to elected officials and City
leadership about the importance of arts and culture, and provides a safety net that allows us to present
a variety of genres and emerging artists that build audiences and serve unique interests. The funding
also helps us keep our ticket prices low and to offer free programming.

interpretation, or determination by the City, the Contractor may file a claim as provided in this
section. The Contractor shall give written notice to the City of all claims within fourteen (14)
calendar days of the occurrence of the events giving rise to the claims, or within fourteen (14)
calendar days of the date the Contractor knew or should have known of the facts or events
giving rise to the claim, whichever occurs first . Any claim for damages, additional payment for
any reason, or extension of time, whether under this Agreement or otherwise, shall be
conclusively deemed to have been waived by the Contractor unless a timely written claim is
made in strict accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement.
At a minimum, a Contractor's written claim shall include the information set forth in
subsections A, items 1 through 5 below.
FAILURE TO PROVIDE A COMPLETE, WRITTEN NOTIFICATION OF CLAIM

Contractor shall proceed promptly to provide the goods, materials and services

the Contractor also waives any additional entitlement and accepts from the City any
written or oral order (including directions, instructions, interpretations, and
determination).

of this section, the Contractor completely waives any claims for protested work and

SUBJECT: Berger Partnership Consultant Agreement for Kent Valley
Loop Trail - Authorize
MOTION: Move to recommend authorizing the Mayor to sign the
Consultant Agreement with the Berger Partnership for $98,550.00 to
develop a master plan for the Kent Valley Loop Trail, subject to final
terms and conditions acceptable to the City Attorney and the Parks
Director,
SUMMARY: The regionally significant Green River and Interurban trails intersect near
the southern tip of the city. The fantastic views of Mount Rainier and the Green River
from these flat, paved, mostly off-road trails-- as well as their proximity to several
other significant local destinations--contribute to the potential for a loop trail
experience unique to the Puget Sound area.
The goal of this project is to create a master plan for identifying a route for connecting
the two trails at the northern end of the city, increasing the recreational value of the
trails and adjacent parks, and better connecting the trails to the surrounding
community. In order to achieve these goals, we will need to address some of the trails'
current challenges, as well as balance recreational goals with other public priorities,
including habitat restoration and flood control.
The consultant was selected from a field of eleven landscape architecture firms who
responded to the Request for Qualifications. The selection panel included
representatives from Parks, Public Works, Economic and Community Development, the
Arts Commission and Kent Parks Foundation.
EXHIBITS: Draft Consultant Agreement
BUDGET IMPACTS: The expenditures for this project are from the King County Paths
and Trails budget.

Proposal for Landscape Architectural Services-Kent Valley Loop Trail
Dear Hope:
We were very excited to learn we were selected to work with the City of Kent on a
master plan for the Kent Valley Loop Trail (KVLT).This project excites us because of the
opportunity to expand the experiences of trail users and be part of creating a very
unique recreational amenity within the city.We look forward to making the most of the
opportunities and challenges ahead.
Project Scope and Understanding
The KVLT is proposed to be a recreational loop located entirely within the City of Kent
approximately 12-13 miles in length.The loop is mostly intact making use of the
Interurban and Green River Trails.The missing section is in the northwest area of the
city, a warehouse and industrial district.This project will propose a route to close the
loop, improve trail safety and function, and enhance the experience for trail users.
This proposal is structured around the proposed public involvement events.At this time
we anticipate a sequence of three events or phases:
1. Visioning/Conceptual Ideas
2. Preferred Plan
3. Master Plan Presentation
Each event will address two primary topics: Closing the loop and enhancing the loop.
Closing the loop will focus on determining the best option to connect the Green River
and Interurban Trails. Part of this effort includes establishing criteria for the connector to
ensure it is safe and consistent with the existing trails, Enhancing the loop will focus on
the safety and function of the existing trails, along with creating a memorable
experience.
