The site is approximately 70 acres in size and is currently comprised of an 18 - hole, Par 69, golf course with a 9,252 square foot clubhouse and 208 parking stalls. Improvements to the golf course include the adjustment, improvement and/or repair of certain tees and greens, associated course drainage, creation of a replacement clubhouse, the addition of 75 parking spaces and a maintenance building. Agencies with Jurisdiction: None. Summary of Primary Impacts: • Earth The majority of the site is generally level and is located in the flood plain of the Duwamish River. Soils in the older greens of the course contain clay and have poor drainage. Newer greens were constructed with sand. Greens are gently sloped with a few exceptions. Maximum grade changes do not exceed 10 feet. Specific areas of the site (i.e. certain holes, tees and/or greens) may be graded or re -graded. Select fill may be imported during the construction of the improvements. An erosion control plan will be employed during construction. 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 o Tukwila, Washington 98188 0 (206) 431-3670 0 Fax (206) 431-3665 E99-0016 (SEPA, Non-Pr'Sjject) Foster Golf Links Six -Year Master Plan Update July 9, 1999 Page 2 • Air Dust and exhaust emissions will be generated during construction, with watering as necessary to control dust. • Water The site is adjacent to the Duwamish River which borders 50% of the course. Seasonal water levels impact golf course drainage as many points on the course are below the level of the adjacent Duwamish River during flood periods. A pump station moves water from the low area between Holes #17 and #18 to the existing storm water system which empties into a bio -filtration swale adjacent to the #1 fairway. Other low areas are drained using dry wells as collectors to direct and dissipate excess water. The effectiveness of all of the drainage facilities is reduced when soils are saturated by sustained rainy periods and are rendered inoperable during flood periods. A year-round pond is proposed behind the green at Hole #2 for storm water collection. The existing water collection area at Hole #9 will be expanded to a year-round pond with overflow to the larger pond behind Hole #2. • Plants Those portions of the site bordering the Duwamish are tree -Tined. Vegetation throughout the course and along Interurban Avenue is park -like by design, composed of scattered tree and shrub plantings. Animals Northwest Chinook Salmon are found in the Duwamish River and were listed as a threatened species in 1999. The river is part of a migration route for anadromous fish. The site is located within the Pacific Flyway, a migration path for various waterfowl. • Energy/Natural Resources Not applicable. E99-0016 (SEPA, Non -Project) • Foster Golf Links Six -Year Master Plan Update July 9, 1999 Page 3 • Environmental Health Noise generated by construction equipment will occur on a short-term basis. The hours of construction will comply with the City's noise ordinance. The proper and limited use of pesticides and fertilizers within shoreline areas will be implemented to reduce the potential for adverse effects on animals, fish and vegetation. • Land/Shoreline Use Those portions of the site within 200 feet of the Duwamish River are located in Shoreline Overlay Zone. The current King County Shoreline Master Program designation is Urban. The larger site is zoned Public Recreation Overlay ("PRO"). Interurban Avenue South borders the site's western perimeter and is classified as a principal arterial. Construction of the proposed clubhouse will require a separate SEPA determination, a Shoreline Substantial Development permit and Design Review. Construction of the proposed maintenance building will require a separate SEPA determination. Specific tees and/or greens may require a separate SEPA determination and Shoreline Substantial Development permit, depending upon the extent of the improvements proposed. Housing No, housing is proposed nor will any residential structures be removed. Aesthetics Due to its proposed location within shoreline zone, the new clubhouse will be subject to design review by the Planning Commission. Landscaping in and around the parking lot will be required as a condition of the land altering permit. • Light and Glare Site lighting at the clubhouse and parking lot areas will be provided by new "no glare" light standards. It is not anticipated that any additional light or glare will be produced by the golf course improvements. Some existing lighting may be relocated. E99-0016 (SEPA, Non-P7bject) Foster Golf Links Six -Year Master Plan Update July 9, 1999 Page 4 • Recreation • • The proposal will improve and enhance the existing 18 -hole, 69 par, 4,862 yard golf course. The nearby Interurban Trail is a multi -use trail linking King and Pierce Counties. A part of this trail follows the Duwamish River within the city limits of Tukwila. Recreational fishing and canoeing occurs in and along the waterway. Historic and Cultural Preservation No known places or landmarks. Transportation The project is located on Interurban Avenue South, a four -lane public roadway serving commercial traffic. Metro bus service is available along this street. The project proposal identifies an increase in the number of available parking stalls from 208 to 283. • Public Services No increase in public services is expected. The Golf Division of the Tukwila Parks & Recreation Department oversees this operation as an "enterprise fund", meaning it is self -supported. • Utilities Project will not increase demand on the utility systems.

Revised Six Year Master Plan Update June 1, 1999 To All Interested Persons: The preparation of this new Six Year Foster Golf Links Master Plan is an essential step for the continuous successful and financial independence of this city -owned. public golf course. Purchased in 1978 by the city, it provides citizens a quality golf experience and a large green belt oasis in the center of Tukwila. The course is operated by the City's Department of Parks and Recreation as an "enterprise fund", meaning all operational costs, capitol improvements, and support services must be paid with golf revenues. Since 1978 green fees have paid for 90% of course operations and construction improvements. The city has achieved success in keeping our green fees at the average or below other nearby courses while utilizing funds to keep the facility competitive. The last Six Year. Master Plan was implemented in 1993. Several capital projects will need to be carried over into the new plan. Construction of a new maintenance facility will begin this year and will carry over into the second year of the new plan. Construction funding is shown as part of the new plan in the Financial Plan and Strategy section. A new clubhouse, which was the largest construction project not completed from the previous plan, will have a major impact on all aspects of the new plan. The primary source of funding will continue to be green fees, and adjustments will need to be made to these fees during the six years of this plan and beyond, as bonds must be sold to pay for the clubhouse and other course improvements. Again, a balance of setting competitive green fees and providing sufficient operational and capital funding will be our goal. The new Six Year Foster Golf Links Master Plan achieves this balance and will continue to provide a quality golfing facility for everyone. Respectfully submitted by: Don Williams, Director Parks and Recreation Department 2 Foster Golf Links Revised Six Year Master Plan Update PURPOSE OF MASTER PLAN: The focus and philosophy of this revised Six -Year Master Plan for Foster Golf Links remains consistent with the Six -Year Plan developed and approved in 1993. The revised plan focuses on the construction of the new maintenance facility, immediate course improvements, the design and construction of a new clubhouse, and a comprehensive plan for course improvements to sustain and improve Foster Golf Links in the future. All efforts are directed at improving Foster Golf Links for its patrons and keeping the course competitive in the busy local golf market. Because of the high profile nature of new courses in the area, improving the visual presentation and quality of conditions and play at Foster Golf Links are important for keeping existing customers and gaining new golfers. With the popularity of golf on television and in the media, course conditioning and shot values are becoming a part of the vocabulary and expectations of experienced and novice golfers. By revising holes, addressing continuous problems, and improving drainage, revenues can be increased by attracting new customers and allowing more play in the wet months. HISTORY OF FOSTER GOLF LINKS: Foster Golf Links was built in the mid -1920's and has long fulfilled a need for recreational golfers in the greater Seattle area. The course is a public owned facility having been acquired by the City of Tukwila in 1978, funded by a citizen's General Obligation Bond and Councilmatic Bonds. The last bond payment was in 1997. The City has continuously undertaken projects to improve the quality of the course while maintaining reasonable rates. The Golf Division, as part of the Department of Parks and Recreation, oversees this operation as an "enterprise fund", meaning it is self - supported. Foster Golf Links Revised Six Year Master Plan Update SITE DESCRIPTION/ EXISTING CONDITIONS: Foster Golf Links occupies a beautiful and unique site adjacent to the meandering, tree lined Duwamish River. The river borders 50% of the course and comes into play physically as well as aesthetically with two holes crossing the water and many others bordering the river. The golf course is recognized as 'a rewarding, fun, relatively flat, but interesting track that is easy to walk and is challenging for the age and ability level of its regular golfers. There are cart paths through the entire course which serve those golfers who wish to ride and provide maintenance access to all points of the property. Since the time of City ownership there has been a continuous effort to improve maintenance and increase the playability and enjoyment of the course through improvement projects. The park -like setting is enhanced by tree and shrub plantings throughout the golf course and around the clubhouse and parking areas. Landscaping along Interurban Avenue provides positive street appeal for the facility. Play: At 4862 yards, par 69, Foster Golf Links is a relatively short course by today's standards. The holes are laid out in a treed setting with generally flat terrain punctuated by swales and hollows. Maximum grade changes do not exceed 10 feet. The shortness of the course and lack of restricting hazards in tee shot landing areas contributes to slow play on some holes when long -hitting golfers choose to wait for the players ahead of them to leave the green before hitting their tee shots. Approaches to greens are generally open; again lacking hazards which might otherwise regulate the speed of play. Greens are small and gently sloped with a few exceptions. Other than the putting green, there is no room for a dedicated practice area. Clubhouse: The existing clubhouse provides a pro shop, restaurant, lounge, meeting room and locker rooms in 9,252 square feet of space. Although the clubhouse was one of the earliest to be constructed in the state and is architecturally pleasing, it is improperly placed on the golf course for easy access and staging of play. The pro shop is of limited size and does not afford visual control of the #1 or #10 tees. The clubhouse also does not provide handicap accessibility. While the clubhouse does provide a meeting room on the top floor, it is of limited use as a banquet facility, having no easy access to the kitchen facilities. The entrance to the clubhouse is not well defined and there is limited curbside appeal as paving surrounds the building. It should also be noted that no major improvements to the clubhouse have been undertaken since it was constructed and it lacks any energy efficiency measures. There have been several minor improvement projects including installation of a fire exit, carpeting, interior pro shop wall installation, second floor ceiling insulation and exhaust fan replacement. A new clubhouse will be designed in 2000. • 4 Foster Golf Links Revised Six Year Master Plan Update Parking: Current parking layout at the course provides approximately 208 stalls. The number is inadequate for peak periods of play when some golfers must leavethe course due to lack of close overflow parking. Recent improvements to #9 green have removed a few spaces. The general condition of the parking areas is good and existing plantings provide pleasant softening of the required expanse of hard surfacing. New clubhouse construction will cause some revisions to the existing parking lot but will result in the addition of approximately 75 spaces. Ground Maintenance: The general condition of the course is good. Because the greens are generally small, there are limited options for pin placements (hole locations) resulting in wear or overuse due to compaction. The condition is exaggerated at the older, soil -based greens. (Newer greens, constructed with sand instead of soil, perform better in terms of compaction, drainage, and rooting depth). The same conditions are apparent at some existing tees. With smaller usable surfaces due to tiered configuration or poor soil mix the tees suffer from drainage problems and over -use. Recently constructed tees reflect the correct size and materials for the amount of play. The areas surrounding some greens and mounds located throughout the course were constructed with poor draining soil and are difficult to mow in wet conditions resulting in equipment -caused damage, poor walking support in wet months, and the frustration of plugged (lost) balls. Drainage: The property is generally flat and in the flood plain of the Duwamish River. The river is both an asset and liability. The proximity provides a pleasant visual asset and affects play but the seasonal water levels impact golf course drainage as many points on the course are below the level of the river during flood periods. A pump station moves water from the low area between #17 and #18 to the existing storm sewer system which empties into a bio -filtration swale adjacent to the #1 fairway. Other low areas are drained using dry wells as collectors to direct and dissipate excess water. The effectiveness of all of the drainage facilities is reduced when soils are saturated by sustained rainy periods and are rendered inoperable during flood periods. Circulation and Safety: The Plan continues previous efforts to make improvements such as adjustments to hole layout, tree plantings, and cart path routing, which provide the greatest safety for golf patrons. Cart path additions and improvements have aided maintenance access to the entire course. Maintenance Facility: The existing maintenance operation is located adjacent to the #1 tee and is housed in a series of small buildings with connecting open sheds. This does not present visitors with a very pleasing first look at the golf course. The lack of adequate storage for both equipment and materials along with limited access into the area makes the present location less than desirable for the necessary operations. A new facility for golf and park maintenance crews and equipment is to be built in 1999/2000 at the south end of the #18 tee and will be occupied in Spring 2000. 7 Foster Golf Links Revised Six Year Master Plan Update PREVIOUSLY COMPLETED PROJECTS AT FOSTER GOLF LINKS: The following completed improvements provide the background for future work: 1979 Automatic irrigation installed on the 13 holes north of the golf course bridge. 1983 Automatic irrigation installed on the 5 holes south of the golf course bridge. 1984 New tees constructed for holes #11 and #17. 1985 New tee constructed for hole #2. 1986 New green constructed for hole #18. Trees planted along fairways at holes #1, #4, #6, and #7. New parking area constructed. Construction started on Metro Effluent Transfer Facility. 1987 New bridge constructed. Effluent Transfer Facility completed. Tee and Green reconstructed for hole #11. New tees constructed at holes #12, #13, #14 and #18. #17 tee reconstructed. Fairways and greens reconstructed at holes #12 and #13. Green reconstruction started at hole #15. 1988 Green reconstruction completed at hole #15. 1989 Separation planting installed at #3, #5, #9 tees. New cart paths installed. #16 Tee and Green reconstruction started. 1990 #16 Tee and Green reconstruction completed. Construction started for new tees at holes #4, #7 and #15. 1991 Construction completed for new tees at holes #4, #7 and #15. #17 fairway reshaping and drainage completed. 1993 New green at hole #5 and new tees at holes #6 and #8 constructed. Opened for play in 1994. 1994 Installation of weather station and maxi computer control irrigation system. 1995 18th fairway reshaped and new trees planted. Acquired water permit certificate to draw additional water from the Duwamish River. New pump station at the river constructed along with a 1.5 million -gallon irrigation holding pond and a pump station between holes #10 and #17. 1996 Design completed and construction started for new grass tees at holes #3, #5, #9 and #10. Opened for play April 1997. 1998 Design of new Park and Golf Maintenance Facility completed. 6 Foster Golf Links Revised Six Year Master Plan Update DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS: Maintenance Facility: Design and construction documents for the maintenance facility were started in 1998. The project, to be located south of #18 tee, will be a shared facility with the Parks Division. Construction is scheduled to begin in 1999 and the facility will be occupied in 2000. The new location will provide adequate space for equipment and materials and will be visually separated from the golf course. Clubhouse: Design of the new clubhouse is scheduled to begin in 2000 with construction starting as soon as funding is available. Occupancy and operation is anticipated in 2003. The new facility will be designed according to the priorities established in the 1993 Master Plan. In that scenario a new building (14,400 square feet including 2400 square feet of cart storage) would be constructed north of the existing clubhouse. The new location would provide inviting, unobstructed, views of the golf course when visitors enter the parking area, sweeping vistas of the course from the clubhouse and would improve circulation around the building. Parking would be increased to approximately 275 stalls. New landscape areas around the clubhouse would enhance the setting and street appeal of the setting. Golf Course Improvements: Improvements are described on the revised golf course plan. Implementation will be as described in the Priority List. Changes proposed by the Master Plan address play, maintenance, drainage, safety, circulation, and location of new buildings. The Plan recommends most greens be rebuilt and enlarged to provide better drainage and additional pin locations. Tees are to be rebuilt as well to provide larger teeing areas, better visual quality, and easier maintenance. Some tees and greens need to be relocated to lengthen holes. Other features and revisions are proposed to improve the strategy and playability of the course. Cart path locations are revised to improve circulation and staging areas and widths are increased to 8 feet. New ponds and drainage swales collect storm water and provide opportunity for dramatic play and interesting visual quality. Re -grading improves playability in wet conditions and reduces maintenance. Winter tees are connected to the path system for ease of circulation in the winter. Hole by Hole Description of Proposed Improvements: Hole #1: Build new tee to the right and behind the existing tee. Final placement to be determined by new clubhouse location. Build new green and bunker complex to the east of the existing green, adding approximately 40 yards to the hole and reducing drainage problems. Hole #2: Move tee north and west of the existing tee location. Re-route cart path to improve staging area. Re -grade low area at end of tee shot landing area and low area left of the green. Enlarge and reshape the green. Create year-round pond behind the green for storm water collection and visual feature viewed from clubhouse. 7 Foster Golf Links Revised Six Year Master Plan Update Hole #3: Rebuild green. Repair low area at left front of green. Rebuild front -right bunker. Remove back -right bunker. Hole #4: Adjust tee location and route cart path around tee to increase separation of staging area. Rebuild green to address poor drainage condition at the lower left portion of the green. Hole #5: Fill low area at right front of tee. Add deciduous trees with contrasting foliage to the East side of the fairway for visual separation from Hole #4 and seasonal interest. Hole # 6: Adjust the routing of the hole by clearing trees to the limit of the buffer along the river. Selectively prune existing trees to reduce tee shot conflict. Re -locate water collection area at front of tee to left side of fairway. Add bunkers to reinforce the lengthened play line and create a strategic landing area for long drives. Relocate cart path at mid -fairway to reduce conflict with #7 fairway and to improve staging and separation at green. Relocate the new green behind the existing green to increase the length of the hole. Selectively prune trees south and east of the new green to increase light level and air circulation. Hole #7: Route cart path around perimeter of tee. Create tee shot landing area slightly right of existing by adding hazards at left side of fairway. Enlarge green and add bunker or tree at right front for approach shot interest. Add deciduous trees at back and left side of green for visual separation from #10 fairway. Hole #8: Re-route cart path and relocate shrub planting bed from directly behind tee to allow wider grass apron for walking approach to tee. Enlarge green and reshape bunkers and aprons to improve drainage and increase second shot values. Hole #9: Build new green complex and pond to create "signature" hole. Expand existing water collection area to year-round pond with overflow to larger pond behind #2 green. Hole # 10: Install new bunker(s) at the right side of fairway to give definition to tee shot. Add trees on left side of fairway for visual separation from hole #7. Regrade green apron to improve drainage. Long term: re -shape green complex with bunker(s) to increase the challenge of the approach shot. Hole #11: Enlarge tee by regrading to single large level and using space gained from existing #17 tee. Regrade green approach and perimeter mounding to improve drainage. Hole #12: Re -grade tee aprons, including mounds, for simplified shape and better drainage. Strip existing clay soil from left side fairway mounds and cap with free draining soil for seeding. Remove incongruous mounds in fairway. 8 Foster Golf Links Revised Six Year Master Plan Update Hole #13: Re -grade tee to single, large surface. Re-route cart path at green for better staging and connection to #14 tee. Hole #14: Re -locate cart path around perimeter of tees. Build a new green left of the existing to create a sharper dogleg and partially hide target to discourage attempts to drive the green. Add bunkers at outside corner of dogleg for target and at green side to require precise approach. Re-route cart path for better staging at green and #15 tee. Hole #15: Rebuild tee to maximize teeing area and simplify aprons. Route cart path around perimeter of tee. Modify entire landing area and green complex to require precise approach shot. Provide visual separation from #14 tee with bunker(s) and trees. Change green slope to best accept shot from short of bunkers. Hole #16: Rebuild tee to maximize teeing area on single level and simplify the aprons. Enlarge green to back and left. Remove lower front shelf of green. Add trees at right side for visual separation from #7. Hole #17: Create entirely new hole as a par 3 to accommodate loss of existing tee to new maintenance buildings. Build new tees behind and to left side of existing pond. Add mounding and bunkers at green to define the target. Continue to use existing low area between #17 and #18 to collect runoff but improve as visual feature. Install trees at back right of green for visual separation from # 10 fairway. Hole #18: Adjust existing tee to accommodate layout of new maintenance buildings. Adjust play line to right by reshaping the fairway and enhancing tree hazards on left. Strip existing mounds and regrade with free draining soil. Remove poor draining soil at the green collar and replace with good topsoil cap for re -seeding. Putting Green: Rebuild existing green with upgraded drainage and finish grading to improve maintenance and playability. Long term: Install additional putting green adjacent to first tee.

Efforts will continue to keep maintenance work costs as low as possible, yet it is recognized there are annual increases. This also holds true for pro shop operations, however, increased wholesale costs for merchandise can be reflected in retail price increases. Currently and in the future, golf course revenues will not be sufficient to pay for large capital projects, such as the maintenance building and clubhouse construction all at once. Budgeted in 1999, there is sufficient funding to pay for a large portion of the maintenance facility's costs in 1999, however, more funds will be needed to complete the project in 2000 than will be generated from that year's golf course revenues. To "bridge" this funding shortfall, a Bond Anticipation Loan will need to be obtained in 2000 and bonds.sold in 2001 to fund the new clubhouse. Bond sale should be $3,700,000, which will include the funds to pay back the loan. Also included in the clubhouse funding will be other golf course improvements immediately around the new clubhouse and demolition of the old maintenance and clubhouse buildings. One budget item that has been added is an annual payment of $30,000, paid from the General Fund to the golf course budget to pay for providing a parks maintenance facility. The Parks Division is a General Fund operation that will operate out of the golf course's facility. Because the golf course is an "Enterprise" Fund, it should receive a "rental fee" from the Parks Division. The reverse is true for the golf course when the General Fund provides support services. The golf course should pay for those services, such as payroll, invoice payments, etc. On page 17, a revenue sheet identifies the existing green fees and projected fee changes to 2004. The green fees are set at a minimum level to support operational and capital costs. It is assumed we will have 69,500 rounds of play per year. Weather is the major determining factor which can increase or decrease annual revenues. For financial planning purposes, revenues are projected on the conservative and the opposite has been done for estimating operational and capital costs. Green fees can be increased and some capital costs can be adjusted if necessary to meet revenue shortfalls. The following pages provide additional budget details and explanations. The prepared budget worksheet, page 16, will be used as the basis for each new years' budget proposal submitted to the Mayor and City Council. The budget worksheet contains line titles (defined below) and dollar figures: 13 ' Foster Golf Links Revised Six Year Master Plan Update Expenditures • Operation and Maintenance: costs for course and Pro Shop services. • Engineering: work paid by the golf course for Public Works engineers to manage capital projects. • Transfers Out — General: monies paid by the golf course for services provided to the course, such as payroll, invoice payment, legal services, etc. • Total Capital Expenditure: all costs related to capital equipment purchased and all costs related to course or building improvements. • Bond Payment: costs to pay for annual bond payments. • Total Expenditures: total of all expenditures estimated for that year. Revenues • Beginning Working Capital: monies unspent carried over from the previous year. • Green Fees: net earnings after sales tax. • Investment Interest: interest earning from invested golf funds. • Equipment Rentals: fees collected from the renting of pull carts and golf clubs. • Power Cart: net revenues from rental of power carts. • Concession Proceeds: restaurant concessionaire payment. • Short Term Loan: payment out of bond sale proceeds to pay off the loan for the maintenance building construction. • Bonds Sold: sale of bonds to pay for maintenance building and new clubhouse. • Transfers In — Parks: monies paid to the course for services it provides to the Parks Division. • Miscellaneous Revenues: donations and similar gifts to the course. • Total Revenue: total of all yearly revenues and beginning fund balance. • Ending Fund Balance: the estimated net dollars that would become the next year's starting balance (Beginning Working Capital as shown above). The strategy for funding the new clubhouse and maintenance facility includes the selling of Council approved bonds. As noted above it is estimated $3,700,000 will be needed, annual payments will be about $300,000 for 20 years. First payment will be made in 2002, one year after the bonds are sold. 14 Foster Golf Links Revised Six Year Master Plan Update To fund the maintenance facility a Bond Anticipation Loan will be made prior to the sale of the bonds in 2001. A Bond Anticipation Loan will provide about $450,000 in the year 2000 that will be used to complete construction payments for the maintenance building. The repayment of this early loan will be included in the annual payments for the bonds. One idea that will be investigated prior to bond sale is the potential of partnering with a restaurant concessionaire for capital investment. It is a common practice that a restaurant concessionaire, in exchange for a long term exclusive food/beverage contract, would commit a substantial dollar investment into building construction. This would reduce the cost to the golf course, however, it would limit for a long period, who would operate the restaurant. The presented financial plan does not include this potential private investment. The following presents some additional facts and assumptions about the financial planning sheets: Expenditures 1. The O&M budget would increase each of the six years by 3%. 2. Bonds would be sold to fund the construction of the new clubhouse and course improvements related to the clubhouse area. 3. By the year 2002, the Golf Course would be able to support annual bond payments of $300,000. Revenues 1. The number of rounds projected for each year of the plan is 69,500. 2. Green fees rates to increase every two years. 3. Power Cart rentals are anticipated to increase by 12% in 1999 with the addition of ten new carts. In the next five years, cart use is estimated to grow annually, with price increases scheduled every two years. 4. Concession proceeds are at a fixed rate, established by contract, through the year 2002. 5. The new Restaurant Concessionaire would be able to pay proceeds of $50,000 a year for the first two years of the contract, plus all utilities related to the concession area. 6. This plan provides a direct contribution of $3.7 million by the Golf Course. Additional contribution could be funded by partnership or restaurant concession agreement. 15 Foster Golf Links Revised Six Year Master Plan Update Master Plan Update Six Year Budget 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 Operation 8 Maintenance $ 1,051,493.00 $ 1,083,037.00 $ 1,115,528.00 $ 1,148,993.00 $ 1,183,463.00 $ 1,218,967.00 Engineering $ 9,800.00 $ $ $ $ - $ Transfer Out - General $ 59,000.00 $ 60,000.00 $ 60,600.00 $ 61,300.00 $ 62,000.00 $ 62,800.00 Capital Expenditures $ 723,900.00 $ 722,500.00 $ 1,911,900.00 $ 1,361,900.00 $ 11,900.00 $ 140,790.00 Bond Payment $ $ $ $ 300,000.00 $ 300,000.00 $ 300,000.00 Total Expenditures $ 1,844,193.00 $ 1,865,537.00 $ 3,088,028.00 $ 2,872,193.00 $ 1,557,363.00 $ 1,722,557.00 Begin Working Capital Sale of merchandise Green Fees Investment Interest Equipment Rentals Power cart Concessions Proceeds $ 577,587.00 $ 7,179.00 $ 20,956.00 $ 1,623,707.00 $ 296,767.00 $ 325,561.00 $ 124,000.00 $ 126,000.00 $ 128,000.00 $ 130,000.00 $ 132,000.00 $ 134,000.00 $ 1,005,000.00 $ 1,121,469.00 $ 1,121,469.00 $ 1,205,418.00 $ 1,205,418.00 $ 1,292,163.00 $ 12,000.00 $ 10,000.00 $ 10,000.00 $ 10,000.00 $ 10,000.00 $ 10,000.00 $ 15,000.00 $ 16,000.00 $ 17,000.00 $ 18,000.00 $ 19,000.00 $ 19,000.00 $ 92,685.00 $ 107,745.00 $ 114,210.00 $ 131,735.00 $ 139,639.00 $ 157,061.00 $ 18,000.00 $ 18,000.00 $ 20,000.00 $ 20,000.00 $ 50,000.00 $ 50,000.00 Short Term Loan $ 1$-- .450.000.00 j $ (450,000.00) $ $ - $ Bonds Sold $ - $ $ - 3. �OA;00 $ $ - $ Transfer In - Parks $ 7,000.00 $ 30,000.00 $ 30,000.00 $ 30,000.00 $ 30,000.00 $ 30,000.00 Misc Revenue $ 100.00 $ 100.00 $ 100.00 $ 100.00 $ 100.00 $ 100.00 Revenue $ 1,851,372.00 $ 1,886,493.00 $ 4,711,735.00 $ 3,168,960.00 $ 1,882,924.00 $ 2,017,885.00 Ending Fund Balance $ 7,179,00 $ 20,956.00 $ 1,623,707.00 $ 296,767.00 $ 325,561.00 $ 295,328.00 Bond Anticipation NOte,Which will be part of Bond?ssue to bet s61d'iti 200, to fund New Clubhouse . - !$37 million bonds:to be sold j 16 Foster Golf Links Revised Six Year Master Plan Update Revised Master Plan Projected Green Fees Holes 18 holes $ 9 holes $ 18 weekend $ 9 weekend $ 18 Sr $ 9 Sr $ Extra $ Ex Sr $ Jr 18 $ Jr 9 $ twilight $ Res 18 $ Res 9 $ 18 weekend $ 9 weekend $ Res Sr 18 $ Res Sr 9 $ Extra $ Extra Sr $ 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 19.00 15.00 15.50 13.00 4.00 2.50 $ 21.00 $ 16.00 $ 23.00 $ 18.00 $ 16.50 $ 13.75 $ 5.00 $ 2.75 $ . 13.00 $ 9.00 6.00 $ 16.00 $ 13.50 $ - $ - $ 12.50 $ 11.25 $ 2.50 $ 1.25 $ $ 21.00 $ 23.00 $ 23.00 $ 25.00 $ 16.00 $ 17.00 $ 17.00 $ 18.00 $ 23.00 $ 25.00 $ 25.00 $ 27.00 $ 18.00 $ 19.00 $ 19.00 $ 20.00 $ 16.50 $ 17.50 $ 17.50 $ 18.50 $ 13.75 $ 14.75 $ 14.75 $ 15.50 $ . 5.00 $ 5.00 $ 5.00 $ 7.00 $ 2.75 $ 2.75 $ 2.75 $ 3.00 $ 13.00 $ . 13.50 $ 13.50 $ 14.00 $ 9.00 $ 9.50 $ 9.50 $ 10.00 8.00 $ 8.00 $ 8.50 $ 8.50 $ 9.00 18.00 $ 18.00 $ 19.50 $ 19.50 $ 21.50 14.50 $ 14.50 $ 15.50 $ 15.50 $ 16.25 20.00 $ 20.00 $ 21.50 $ 21.50 $ 23.50 16.50 $ 16.50 $ 17.50 $ 17.50 $ 18.25 13.50 $ 13.50 $ 14.25 $ 14.25 $ 15.00 12.00 $ 12.00 $ 12.75 $ 12.75 $ 13.50 3.50 $ 3.50 $ 4.00 $ 4.00 $ 5.25 1.50 $ 1.50 $ 1.50 $ 1.50 $ 1.50 This plan calls for a green fee increase scheduled for the year 2000.

The addition of weekend green fees (Saturday & Sunday). Through the prime golfing season (April through September) $2.00 would be added to the green fees. 2. New junior green fees rate. Presently junior golfers pay the same rate as seniors. The new fee schedule calls for a price reduction and the addition of junior rates on weekends after 4:00 p.m. 3. New Twilight green fees. The present twilight rate would be offered one hour before sunset and the fee would be one half the nine hole green fee. 4. The addition of winter rates. During the winter (October through February) all golfers would be eligible for Tukwila Residential Rates. 5. The Park Director would be able to authorize promotional rates during off-peak periods to increase revenues and promote the facility. 17 TABLE OF ILLUSTRATIONS • Course Map After Six -Year Plan • Hole #2: Revised Green with Pond • Hole #9: Revised Green with Pond • Hole #14: Revised Green • Hole #15: Revised Green • Hole #16: Revised Tee and Green • Hole #17: Revised Tee, Fairway, and Green Foster Golf Links Revised Six Year Master Plan Update 18 / --"-,":7---- ,% i_. -rff., , ,, /, ./,./ ...."'"- --- --- 1 v .----"7", .

MEMORANDUM TO: Don Williams FROM: Michael Jenkins DATE: May 26, 1999 RE: Comments concerning Draft Master Plan for Foster Golf Links Thank you for providing a copy of the Master Plan for our review. The comments below pertain specifically to potential Shoreline Master Plan issues rising for the proposed improvements: • New tees and/or greens at Holes 1,,2, 4, 6, 7, 11, 15 & 16 may require Shoreline Permits if they are within 200 feet of the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM) of the Green River. Incorporation of native grasses and plantings within the Shoreline may be required. In addition, the proper and limited use of pesticides within shoreline areas should be implemented, to reduce the potential for adverse affects on animals, fish and/or vegetation. Minimizing the use of pesticides near the shoreline will become increasingly important, in light of the recent species listings under the Endangered Species Act. • Any new or expanded irrigation systems, pump stations or related infrastructure within the shoreline zone will require a permit. Repair or maintenance of existing systems is permitted without a permit. • Site plan is not scaled so the proposed location of new parking and clubhouse is difficult to determine. If either is within the shoreline zone, a Shoreline Permit, with Design Review, will be required.
