INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Community Services & Safety Committee
FROM: David Rosen, Parks & Recreation Fiscal Analyst
DATE: June 2, 2023
SUBJECT: Renewal of Foster Golf Links Concessionaire Contract with MMS Consultants Inc.
ISSUE
The current agreement between the City of Tukwila and the concessionaire located at Foster Golf Links
(FGL), MMS Consultants Inc., is set to expire July 1, 2023. To prevent service disruption for golfers at
FGL and customers for the concessionaire, a contract renewal is being sought with modifications
agreed to by both parties.
BACKGROUND
Foster Golf Links provides food and beverage services via an on-site Concessionaire. Said
Concessionaire is granted exclusive restaurant, lounge, snack bar, catering, and beverage/snack cart
concession rights at the golf course in exchange for payment of Concession Fees in the form of a
percentage of their gross receipts. This Agreement does not prevent the FGL Pro Shop from selling
food and beverage incidentals such as bottled water, chips, candy, etc.. Since 2009 the Concessionaire
at FGL has been MMS Consultants Inc., operating as Billy Baroo’s. The contract with MMS was
renewed in 2016 and is now set for another renewal in the coming month. Said renewal is for 7 years.
DISCUSSION
Staff are pleased to have secured the following changes in the proposed agreement:
Fully retained Concession Fees percentages
Change to Concession Fees timeline and payment method, saving General Fund $3K in CC Fees
Fully defined complete food services to guarantee provision of turn window and snack/beverage
cart services to golfers year round
Better defined meetings and communications between both contract parties, including
advertisement program approvals, quarterly meetings, maintenance coordination, and on-site
inspections
Secured usage of banquet rooms at FGL that will not require usage of Concessionaire services,
allowing a lower cost approach for city departments or staff to utilize the facilities on a limited basis
Clarified contract language around maintenance and custodial responsibilities that will enable faster
response times for both parties, maintaining service provision and customer satisfaction
Overall, staff were able to secure higher service levels for golfers and customers, better coordination
between parties, general fund savings, and removed barriers to facility use, in exchange for higher
utility share for power and water/sewer. These changes and final language were coordinated with our
golf business plan consultant, National Golf Foundation, who believes the changes made will serve to
benefit both parties in terms of bottom line financial performance.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The Concession Agreement creates revenue for the Foster Golf Links (411) Fund via Leasehold Excise
Tax and Concession Fees paid to the city by the Concessionaire. The revenue amounts generated by
these sources for the past five fiscal years are as follows:
Source 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 YTD
Leasehold E. Tax $4,046 $1,925 $2,895 $3,618 $0
Concession Fees $103,224 $49,112 $73,853 $92,283 $31,312
As part of contract negotiations, the City has agreed to a utility share that increases our responsibility
for power and water/sewer charges at Foster Golf Links Clubhouse. This increased utility share is
estimated to cost the 411 Fund $24,000 per fiscal year. Additional revenue gained via increased
Concessionaire services secured by the contract is indeterminate at this time. However, additional
services secured have been identified as golfers greatest complaint areas per our consultant, staff is
confident services secured will enable Foster Golf Links to remain competitive in the local golf market.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the committee forward the attached contract for approval on the City Council
Consent Agenda on June 26, 2023.

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Community Services & Safety Committee
FROM: Kris Kelly, Parks Manager
BY: David Rosen, Parks & Recreation Fiscal Analyst
DATE: June 2, 2023
SUBJECT: Joseph Foster Park & TCC Park Master Plans Proposed Contract
ISSUE
The City of Tukwila’s 2020 Park, Recreation and Open Space (PROS) Plan identified Joseph Foster
Memorial Park and Tukwila Community Center Park as two of the six highest priority park improvement
project sites. Goal 5.3 of the Plan also recommends developing site-specific master plans or site
designs that guide all major park improvements and that achieve cohesive design and efficient phasing
of projects. A Request for Qualifications (RFQ) of park master planning services was recently issued
for developing two park master plans for these parks. The Berger Partnership, a Seattle based
landscape architecture/design firm, was selected through an open and competitive process and staff
seek Council approval to execute the contract.
BACKGROUND
Tukwila Community Center Park was acquired from King County back in 1990 with the Community
Center itself being built in 1997. The park now includes a picnic shelter, sport areas, skatepark, play
structure, and field. No significant improvements have occurred in approximately the past 20 years.
Joseph Foster Memorial Park was established in 1982 and is located on the former site of Foster
School. The land is under a recently renewed long-term lease- through December 2051- with the
Tukwila School District. Minor improvements at the park have included a basketball/pickleball court
installation (2021) and conversion of the upper field to a dog park (2018).
With the adoption of the 2023-24 biennial budget and 2023-28 Financial Planning Model and Capital
Improvement Program, the Parks and Recreation Department is proceeding with several park
improvement initiatives guided by the 2020 PROS Plan. Completed park master plans enable the City
to leverage Real Estate Excise Tax (REET) and Park Impact Fees (PIF) as matching funds for local,
state and federal grants to implement the recommended park improvements. Staff intend to pursue
such grants with many administered by the Washington State Recreation and Conservation Funding
Board’s (RCFB) beginning in the spring of 2024.
DISCUSSION
The proposed Master Plan project will include landscape architecture and design and urban design and
engineering services to create the final park master plan for both parks. The project will require
engagement with local community members, park users, neighbors, and other involved stakeholders.
Berger Partnership is a well-respected firm in the landscape design sector with a focus on innovation
and sustainability. Several high-profile projects Berger has completed recently include the Pike Place
Market Waterfront, renovation of Spokane’s Riverfront Park, Seattle Capitol Hill Transit Oriented
Development, and Seattle’s Magnuson Park.

Project History and Background
The site of the Tukwila Community Center Park was acquired from King County in 1990. The
property was initially acquired using bond funds from the 1969 Forward Thrust Park Bond
Program and was used primarily as a pea patch garden. In 1997 the City of Tukwila built a
55,000 square foot Community Center, funded in part by savings generated by the City for such
purposes as well as the issuance of capital bonds. The Center was designed by ARC Architects and
constructed by Berschauer Phillips Construction. A second phase of construction brough outdoor
park improvements- including the sport areas and picnic shelter.
The Center serves as the headquarters for the City’s parks and recreation department, the central
hub for customer contact, registration and facility rental coordination. In addition to staff offices
and work spaces, a variety of dedicated and multi-purpose spaces serve to support diverse
recreation programming, events and facility rentals. It also serves as an emergency shelter for the
City.
Joseph Foster Memorial Park was established in 1982, is located on the former site of Foster
School. The land was donated to create the first community school. The park land is leased from
the Tukwila School District, which was recently renewed in 2022 and extending through December
2051. Most recent investments in the park include a basketball/pickleball court (completed in
2021) and the conversion of the upper field to a dog park (completed in 2018).
SCOPE OF WORK
City of Tukwila Parks and Recreation is seeking a consultant(s) or firm to lead two (2) independent
park master planning/design processes. The successful team is to collaborate in overall site master
planning for each park, including participation in public outreach processes, revisit site
programming and feasibility, development of plan options, and final Master Plan with probable cost
including a phasing plan if required.
The park master plans will be used to help support Tukwila Parks in procuring local and state
grants and use of Real Estate Excise Tax (REET) and Park Impact Fee (PIF) funding sources to
construct the proposed park improvements. There may be an opportunity to participate in the next
phase of development including permitting assistance, construction documents, estimation of

Proposal for Landscape Architectural Services: Foster Park and Tukwila Community Center Park
Master Plans
Dear Kris and Pete:
We are pleased to have the opportunity to work with the Tukwila community and city staff to
prepare a master plan for both Foster Park and the Tukwila Community Center Park. Detailed
herein is our scope of work and fee for the project for your review.
Project Team
To complete the scope of work, we have resource consultants available to help shape the master
plans. Our intent is to utilize these consultants early in the process to identify critical issues that
may impact the future development of each site; however, we do not plan to get into substantive
scope/detail with these consultants as part of the master plan process. Resources include the
following:
• Civil Engineering: KPFF
• Geotechnical Engineering: Shannon & Wilson (S&W)
• Mechanical Engineering for Spray Park: GDM
• Athletic Fields: D.A. Hogan
Project Understanding
This scope of work is for the development of two master plans, Foster Park and Tukwila
Community Center Park, to be completed as one process. It is assumed that development
milestones and deliverables will be shared between the two projects. Anticipated phases of work
are as follows.
Project Administration
Work in this task may include:
• Develop project timeline with all proposed major milestones.
• Kick-off meeting (site walk) with key city staff to initiate project design.
• Prepare monthly progress reports and invoices.
• Manage subconsultants.
• Regular communication with city project manager on progress, problems, and issues.

Site Investigation and Analysis
Work in this task may include:
• Site investigations:
o Review background information, including applicable information provided by city,
including recent planning documents, record design drawings, or previous survey
information for each site.
o Construct base plan from GIS and aerial photography resources of adequate detail to
guide the master plan process. This assumes the city is able to provide the raw data
used in the Tukwila iMap or the design team can gather sufficient data from King
County.
Survey work is not anticipated to be part of this scope, nor should this level
of detail be needed. However, as noted above, any previous survey work
made available would be of use to the design team.
o Prepare preliminary reconnaissance memos as required to identify issues impacting
the master plans.
Public Engagement Plan and Implementation
Work in this task may include:
• Prepare Community Involvement Plan:
o Includes stakeholder groups, partners, and census info on neighborhood (with city
support) to understand language needs. Plan will detail approach for project
communications for the duration of the master plan.
• Prepare outreach materials:
o Materials will include narratives, questions, graphics, and character photos to push
out information about the project and to solicit input at key design milestones.
Materials will be designed to source realistic, actionable feedback from the
community and provide clear choices to establish priorities and tradeoffs. Materials
will include image-based selections such as character photos. Material will be used
for the following:
Web presence updated with milestone deliverables (assumes city will handle
formatting and hosting web content).
Materials for public meetings (hand-outs and boards printed in-house by
Berger).
o For all public meetings Berger Partnership may:
Develop an agenda for all meetings. (Verified with city)
Prepare messaging for community invitations.

Prepare materials for all meeting milestone (to be simultaneously deployed
to web presence), including online survey content (images and questions for
city web deployment).
o For all public meetings the city will:
Arrange venues.
Be responsible for any email/hardcopy promotion of meetings/events.
Manage content on website, posting surveys, and providing survey results
back to Berger for interpretation and distillation.
• Synthesize public input from public meetings.
Develop and Present Preliminary Concept Plans
Work in this task may include:
• Prepare concept plans and graphics:
o Schemes may be hand drawn, digital, or any combination thereof as determined
by Berger to convey design intent.
Master Plan Development
Work in this task may include:
• Prepare draft preferred plan.
• Hone preferred plan.
• Draft master plan report
o Provide supporting narrative for design and process.
• Prepare cost estimate:
o These are high-level master plans, and the cost estimate too will be equally high
level, utilizing allowances to account for many of the not fully designed elements
and providing an allowance that future design development can build toward.
• Finalize master plan report and cost estimate.
Assumptions
• Base plan will be developed from available GIS and aerial photos. No survey is included in
this scope of work.
• Public outreach content (drawings, graphics, and narratives will be provided by the design
team to be posted by the city on the city website).
• City to implement and maintain social media outreach content and platform.
• Targeted mailings or digital outreach as deemed appropriate to be coordinated by the
city.
• Translation and interpretation of project deliverables will be provided by others.
