INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Community Services & Safety Committee AND
Planning & Economic Development Committee
FROM: Rick Still, Parks & Recreation Director
BY: Robert Eaton, Parks & Recreation Manager
CC: Mayor Ekberg
DATE: February 24, 2020
SUBJECT: Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Draft Plan Review and Final Adoption
ISSUE
Review, discussion, and adoption by ordinance of the 2020 Parks, Recreation, and Open Space
Plan.
BACKGROUND
An agency has a Parks, Recreation, and Open Space (PROS) Plan for a number of reasons. It
helps to establish the parks and recreation needs of a community and identifies strategies to
meet those needs. It establishes a 6-year Capital Improvement Plan and provides policy and
standards to guide the department for the future. It also serves as the Open Space Plan which
is required for the City to be eligible for State and Federal grant funding. Staff is proposing to
adopt an updated PROS Plan in 2020 for the following reasons:
• The most recent PROS Plan was adopted in 2014 and expired in 2019.
• The PROS Plan was budgeted to be updated in 2019 according to the 2019 — 2024
Financial Planning Model and Capital Improvement Program.
• The PROS Plan serves as the Master Plan for Parks, Recreation, and Open Space. In
order to continue to qualify for Federal and State Grant Funding, this must be updated.
• Significant changes have occurred since the current PROS Plan was adopted in 2014,
including demographic, financial climate, service providers, and department staffing levels.
The plan will help to forecast future trends and their impact on parks and recreation.
• The PROS Plan evaluates the parks system, recreation programs, facilities, and events;
identifies underserved portions of the community; and provides recommendations and
funding strategies to help meet identified needs.
• The PROS Plan takes into account the City's Strategic Plan, Comprehensive Plan,
countywide planning policies, and the Growth Management Act.
The current 2014 — 2019 Parks, Recreation, and Open Space (PROS) Plan was adopted by
Ordinance Number 2207 on February 18, 2014 and amended by Ordinance Number 2573 on
May 7, 2018 (in conjunction with the Parks Impact Fees update). Staff have been working with a
consultant, MIG, since May 2019 to update the PROS Plan.

INFORMATIONAL MEMO
Page 2
On October 29, 2019, MIG presented an update to the Community Development and
Neighborhoods Council Committee on the PROS Plan process and accomplishments. The update
included community engagement efforts, needs assessment findings, and key challenges, barriers,
and potential opportunities. The 2019 CDN Committee provided valuable input on the plan
development.
At the December 4, 2019 Community Development and Neighborhoods Council Committee,
staff shared the top ten key needs identified through the community engagement process, along
with capital projects and priorities. The Council Committee reviewed, discussed, and provided
feedback to staff to help guide future decision making on capital projects and priorities that best
address the key needs.
The culmination of all the community and committee work is captured in the draft 2020 — 2025
PROS Plan, which is complete and open to the public for review and comment.
DISCUSSION
A draft version of the PROS Plan was made available to the public on Friday, February 14, 2020
for review and comment (Attachment A). The review period closes Sunday, March 1, 2020.
Concurrently, the draft PROS Plan was distributed to all Councilmembers. Staff are facilitating
review and discussion of the draft plan with both the Community Services & Safety and
Planning & Economic Development Council Committees. Additionally, there is a public hearing
scheduled for February 24, 2020 Committee of the Whole.
Once the review period closes, the consultant will update the plan and a final version will be
presented at the March 23, 2020 Committee of the Whole, and subsequent April 6, 2020
Regular Meeting for adoption by ordinance (Attachment B). The final plan will need to be
adopted at the April 6, 2020 Regular Meeting to be eligible to apply in this 2-year cycle for
potential future grant funding from the Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office
(RCO). If the plan is not adopted by that time, special permission will have to be pursued from
RCO to become eligible, however, it is not guaranteed.
Here is a summary of the review and adoption schedule for reference.
2/14 — Draft plan distributed to all Councilmembers
2/24 — CSS Committee draft plan review & feedback
2/24 — COW Public Hearing
3/2 — PED Committee draft plan review & feedback
