RCW 42.24.180 requires the review and approval of all payments at a regularly scheduled public meeting on at least a monthly basis. The State Budgeting, Accounting and Reporting Systems (BARS) Manual outlines the above format for approval by the City Council. RCW 42.24.080 requires that all claims presented against the City by persons furnishing materials, rendering services, or performing labor must be certified by the appropriate official to ensure that the materials have been furnished, the services rendered, or the labor performed as described, and that the claims are just, due and unpaid obligations against the City. RCW 42.24.180 allows expedited processing of the payment of claims when certain conditions have been met. The statute allows the issuance of warrants or checks in payment of claims before the legislative body has acted to approve the claims when: (1) the appropriate officers have furnished official bonds; (2) the legislative body has adopted policies that implement effective internal control; (3) the legislative body has provided for review of the documentation supporting the claims within a month of issuance; and (4) that if claims are disapproved, they shall be recognized as receivables and diligently pursued. The City meets all these conditions. To comply with the requirements, Finance staff schedule payment of claims and payroll for semi-monthly Council approval on the Consent Agenda. The payments listed in the schedule cover all claims and payroll payments during the period prior to the date of the Council meeting. All payments made during this period were found to be valid claims against the City. Details are attached and any questions should be directed to the City Manager or Finance Director. The City’s internal controls include certification of the validity of all payments by the appropriate department prior to submission for payment. The Finance Director has delegated authority for the examination of vouchers and authorization of payments to the Finance, Accounts Payable, and Payroll staff. All payments are reviewed and validated. The Finance Division regularly reviews its processes to ensure appropriate internal controls are in place.

PROJECT EXAMPLES UMATILLA, OREGON PARKS MASTER PLAN Reference: Esmeralda Horn Development & Recreation Manager P.O. Box 130, Umatilla, OR 97882 (541) 922-3226, ext. 108 esmeralda@umatilla-city.org Current Project: The City of Umatilla hired GreenPlay to assist with the development of a Parks Master Plan. The City had previously drafted a plan in January 2018, and this new plan is a continuation of that effort. The focus of this plan is on the sustainable allocation of resources over the next ten years and addressing the future need and funding for facilities and services. The master plan incorporates the opinions of citizens through stakeholder interviews, public meetings, and recent survey information, to determine desired changes and new ideas for the long term vision for the Parks and Recreation Department. The study will include an inventory and assessment of assets, prioritization of opportunities, population and growth analysis, trends analysis, level of service analysis, benchmarking of other similar towns, an organizational and staffing assessment, marketing and branding assessment, and a financial analysis.

The City, which is located in the south Portland Metropolitan area, had experienced rapid growth since development of the previous plan. This update was intended to provide a vision for the future of parks, recreation, open space, and trails in the city, as well as recommendations for providing a high level of service in a time of rapid growth. The City had also recently consolidated services that were previously provided by the Public Works Department and the Community Services Department into its Parks and Recreation Department. This plan allowed the City to maintain its high quality of life by developing recommendations for the parks and trails system to flourish and to be environmentally and fiscally sustainable for many years to come. The plan also established a concrete trails plan, with the goal of promoting alternative transportation and improving connectivity in the community. Our team performed public input, inventory, level of service analysis, trails analysis, and an operations and financial analysis to help the City reach its goals. Boones Ferry Park is located where Boones Ferry Road meets the northern shore of the Willamette River. The river flows from west to east through town and was historically the site of a ferry and sternwheeler landing, with the ferry operator’s home located on the north side of the river. Recent acquisition of adjacent land has expanded the size of the park from approximately 12 acres to approximately 15 acres. The purpose of this master plan was to provide an overall vision for the expanded site within the context of the entire citywide system of parks and the newly updated Parks and Recreation Comprehensive Master Plan. When implemented, the park plan will increase river access by providing new pathways to the water’s edge that will meet accessibility requirements, and by opening up views of the river from key locations. It will also bring new activities to the park and upgrade existing ones while retaining the classic ambiance and character found there, along with protecting the natural areas of the site. Team members included Design Concepts and RRC Associates.

It built upon the many accomplishments guided by the goals and strategies set forth in the previous Master Plan. To support and enhance a vibrant quality life, the overarching goal of the 2020 Parks and Recreation Master Plan was to create a comprehensive, system-wide vision for Sandpoint Parks and Recreation which will be environmentally and fiscally sustainable including: 1. Provide a framework for orderly and consistent planning 2. Provide a framework for acquisition and development and Capital Improvement Plan 3. Recommend efficiencies and improvements for administration of the parks and recreation resources, programs, and City of Sandpoint facilities The Parks and Recreation Master Plan established guiding direction based on the following: 1. Vision and Value Proposition Creation 2. Resources and Core Competencies Assessment 3. Political and Community Engagement 4. Financial Forecasting In conjunction with this system-wide planning effort, site specific master plans were developed for City Beach Park, Downtown Waterfront, War Memorial Field, and the Travers Park/Great Northern Sports Complex. Through the planning process, our team determined that replacing turf on War Memorial Field with artificial turf would reduce maintenance costs while allowing the field to accommodate high usage. The field was renovated and opened in the summer of 2020.

The objectives of the Master Plan are to establish goals, procedures, and comprehensive achievable strategies and implementation approaches that directly impact residents’ quality of life over a ten-year term and beyond. The GVRD operates as a special district to provide recreational services and manage parks and open spaces. While the District does not own the parks, it has autonomous responsibility for management based on an agreement with the City. The project consisted of community engagement, a facility inventory, GRASP® level of service analysis, a needs assessment, operational, recreation and organizational analysis, and development of recommendations. Due to COVID 19 meeting restrictions, public engagement for this plan was completed virtually using a combination of Zoom and social media engagement. Team members included LandDesign and RRC Associates.

Spokane St. Post Falls, ID 83854 (208) 292-2324 | dfair@postfallsidaho.org Project: In 2012, GreenPlay was retained by the City of Post Falls, Idaho, to create a Parks and Recreation Master Plan. The system-wide master plan would guide development, maintenance, and financial stability of the City’s system over the next 5, 10, and 20 years. The project included an inventory of all existing parks and recreation programs, an active public participation process, a statistically valid survey, a comprehensive needs assessment and funding implementation plan, and development of recommendations. Team members included Verdis, Design Concepts, and RRC Associates. CITY OF POST FALLS, IDAHO, PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN UPDATE In 2019, the City of Post Falls hired GreenPlay to update their 2012 Parks and Recreation Master Plan. The team that completed this plan is the same team that is being proposed for this project. For the Master Plan update, the City was interested in a concise document that is visually appealing and easy to read, with actionable recommendations. They also wanted a series of recommendations with alternatives if the recommended funding is not available. At the time of the 2012 plan, the City’s population was about 28,000, which grew to about 35,000 in 2019. As part of the Couer d’Alene- Spokane Metropolitan Area, Post Falls is a popular place in which to live and work. The City offers a small-town, tight- knit community environment with all of the conveniences of a larger metropolitan area, including being located within 30 minutes of an international airport. The plan also included analysis to help determine the feasibility of adding another community center, and looked at ways to enhance connectivity within the community. It also examined ways to help the City manage and maintain their urban forests, which are a core component of the City’s character. Team members included BWA and RRC Associates. 2019 SPRING ACTIVITIES GUIDE | 3 SPOKANE CHIEFS HOCKEY GAMESCome support the Spokane Chiefs!

Adjoining the core area of the park is the 327-acre ORV Park, the 87-acre Cedar Grove Conservation Area, and the 455-acre Liberty Lake Conservation Area. The scope of this project was complex. Bernardo Wills Architects’ landscape architecture group was retained to develop the Liberty Lake Regional Master Plan. The plan was initiated by the Spokane County Parks, and Recreation and Golf Department to transform the community’s vision of the park into a framework for future improvements and strategic development. The Master Plan reflects a very diverse constituency of park user types that provided input gathered over five months of public engagement with stakeholder interviews, two pop- up studios; one to collect data from actual park users, the other to collect data from the Liberty Lake community, and a workshop/open house as a general call to interested parties to participate in defining a vision for the park’s future. The goal of the public engagement was to develop a master plan for Liberty Lake Regional Park that is implementable, has support from user groups, the community, neighbors and landowners, and accomplishes the “Guiding Principles” for the plan. An important early part of the master planning process was the orientation interview series. Prior to starting work on project planning and design, the consultant team needed to understand the perspectives of park users and stakeholders. The two days of interviews—conducted in June of 2017— provided invaluable insight into user needs and aspirations, shaping the direction for the overall park vision, design, and implementation strategy. The consultant team interviewed community members, selected by County parks and rec staff to represent a broad range of community perspectives. Spokane County Parks, Recreation, and Golf Department will utilize this plan to guide future investment in Liberty Lake Regional Park. Dell Hatch, ASLA, served as Principal-in-Charge and Bill LaRue served as Project Manager.

The McEuen Park Redevelopment project was initiated in 2010 by the City of Coeur d’Alene as a master plan that would transform 18.6 acres of existing softball fields, an American Legion baseball field, and City parking lots into a 20-acre Placemaking Community Park. The master plan process was conducted over a two-year period with the design team being assisted and directed by a 21-person, mayoral-appointed steering committee. Four public presentation meetings were conducted, along with two public Open House Workshops for gathering public input. A project website was established to conduct surveys and provide continuous informational and graphic updates for public viewing and comment. The design team conducted over 40 meetings in total, visiting with adjacent neighborhoods and property owners, community organizations, fraternal groups such as the Rotary and Eagles, meeting with schools and the Chamber of Commerce. Dell Hatch participated in all these meetings, providing the design narrative for the overall park layout, detailing anticipated park activities/uses, describing the landscape development and conducting Q&A sessions. BWA design responsibilities included organization of all park elements, coordination of park lighting, park grading and earthwork, landscape plantings and irrigation, development of all walks, promenades, and plazas, as well as landscape-related site retaining walls. The entire park was designed and constructed to be fully ADA accessible. The redevelopment included a below-street parking facility for over 200 vehicles coupled with an additional 200- plus vehicles located on-street or as part of newly built parking lots. Park amenities include a half-acre children’s play structure, splash pad, tennis and basketball courts, a ‘pocket’ dog park, grass amphitheater, and a 250-seat pavilion event center. The Harbor House facility at the water’s edge houses restrooms and concessions and is constructed over a 43,000-gallon holding tank that is the irrigation source drawing on lake water, collected storm water, and reuse of splash pad water. Six blocks of Front Avenue were fully reconstructed as the roof of the parking facility and included the Front Avenue Promenade which is a green roof application that provides substantial public space for markets, gatherings, and public art.

METHODOLOGY AND PROCESS PROJECT UNDERSTANDING To create a long range vision for parks and recreation services in the City of Moses Lake and to help you meet and exceed your vision, our team will work with you to develop a Comprehensive Master Plan for your Parks and Recreation Department. Once completed, this plan will offer a long-range strategic plan and a clear, cohesive vision for the organization. We know that the Department provides parks and recreation services to about 23,000 within your city limits and about 17,000 additional people who live in the surrounding area. Residents and visitors have access to an abundance of parks and recreation facilities and programs, including the Surf ‘n Slide Water Park, which is a destination for people from all over Washington. Moses Lake is home to one of the state’s larges freshwater lakes and provides residents and visitors with active and passive water based recreation opportunities in its parks and natural areas. The City offers over 30 parks with various amenities and activities, including boating, swimming, walking trails, wildlife viewing, playgrounds, picnic tables, and more. We understand that this plan will serve as an update to the previous Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Master Plan, which was completed in 2016. This plan will: • Lead to an effective alignment of the goals • Provide for the timely collection of needs assessment data and the review of this data during the development of the Comprehensive Master Plan rather than using data from a previous planning process to drive one of the Plans The Mission of the Moses Lake Parks and Recreation Department is to plan, develop, and maintain safe recreational facilities and programs for the health, pleasure, and educational use of the community and its visitors. Moses Lake Council Packet 3-29-21, Page 67 of 117 GreenPlay, LLC | Statement of Qualifications26 • Allow for a “whole systems” planning approach, which encompasses more than a review of park and facility needs, but also operational and funding needs, which is critical in the current economic, political, and operating environment • Result in one implementable action plan, which provides focus for financial and work planning • Maximize resources, including Advisory Board and staff time with a shorter, less duplicative planning period We will work with you to create a plan that serves as a comprehensive planning tool with recommendations that are realistic and tailored to your community. Our consultants have managed parks and recreation departments and understand the need to balance community needs and expectations with budgetary realities. Together, we will develop a community- specific plan that will be easily implemented, help gain engagement and consensus, and will address the key issues for your service area. PROJECT APPROACH A. PROJECT COORDINATION, STRATEGIC KICK-OFF, AND DETERMINATION OF CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTORS Following the award of contract, GreenPlay will provide a scoping call with the City, our Project Manager and our Principal-in-Charge at no additional charge. On this call, we will discuss the final scope and schedule and prepare your team for the Strategic Kick Off. We will then will provide a Detailed Work Plan for discussion at a Strategic Kick-Off (SKO) meeting Parks and Recreation staff. We will review the details of the work plan and formalize the timeline and tasks for your project. Project Coordination • We will work closely with your team during SKO to identify key “Critical Success Factors” that will help to ensure that all relevant unique aspects of the City are addressed. • We will supply written Monthly Progress Reports that cover recent progress, outstanding issues or information needed, upcoming meetings and agendas, and next steps. We have found this to be an effective communication tool, adding a level of efficiency to our projects. We will always be available for phone or email communication. • Project team progress meetings will be formally held as often as necessary, but in no case less than monthly, with project updates via email or phone to your Project Manager until the final plan is approved by the Advisory Board. • We will supply the City Project Manager with one (1) electronic copy of all completed or partially completed reports, studies, forecasts, or plans deemed necessary by the Project Manager at least three (3) working days before each progress meeting. The Project Manager will schedule the meetings, as necessary, at key times during the development of the plan. • We will provide up-to-date information for posting on the City’s website and/or an independent project website for review of progress by stakeholders and the public. Integration with Existing Plans As part of the information gathering phase, we will integrate information from other recent and current planning work, including: • 2016 Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Master Plan • The City’s Comprehensive Plan • The Shoreline Master Program • The Trails Plan • Budgets, work plans, and funding plans utilized by the City to facilitate the comprehensive coordination of direction and recommendations NEEDS ASSESSMENT B. DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT STRATEGY We know that the City believes that public engagement and involvement is a critical component of the Master Planning Process, and we agree. Our team believes in creating an in-depth, efficient, and cost-effective citizen-focused community process throughout all public agency management and planning. We will build upon previous work to acquire knowledge of local issues and concerns that will assist us in obtaining useful and pertinent community feedback – both as information and engagement for buy-in and outcomes. Before executing the public Moses Lake Council Packet 3-29-21, Page 68 of 117 Comprehensive Master Plan for Moses Lake Parks & Recreation 27 engagement strategy, we will work with you to develop a comprehensive outreach strategy with multiple methods for involving the public. Engagement Methodologies We tailor engagement strategies to meet the specific needs of your project, and the final process is determined during the Strategic Kick Off meeting. We will provide well-organized and directed activities, techniques, and formats that will ensure a positive, open, and proactive public participation process. We will work with your team during SKO to determine which of these methods may be most effective for engaging your community. GreenPlay will facilitate Citizen Outreach and Stakeholder Engagement Meetings to determine the needs of the residents and to allow the project team to communicate with residents, user groups, associations, civic associations, and key community representatives. Preliminary Key Stakeholders may include residents, representatives, and staff from your community; the seven members of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, City Council members; Parks and Recreation Department staff; and other City groups as necessary; neighborhood associations; other affected community and government agencies; and selected alternative providers, partners, and special interest groups from in and around your community. COVID-19 CONSIDERATIONS GreenPlay has been successfully completing projects including community engagement throughout the Covid-19 Pandemic. We are very sensitive to local conditions and phasing guidelines. All in-person engage-ment will be conducted with appropriate social distancing protocols, and we can conduct virtual engagement through various methods. GREENPLAY PROVIDES MOE GreenPlay offers even more ways to reach your community through Mobile-Optimized Engagement (MOE). These innovative strategies help solve one of the most common reasons people don’t attend meetings – lack of time. In addition, these tools capitalize on reaching 81% of Americans of all demographics in the most convenient manner, to which they have access throughout the day – their smartphone. Now, your community members don’t have to come to a public meeting. We recognize that not everyone would prefer (or have access to) technology, and we love our in-person contacts, but many community members are accustomed to doing things online. They can participate comfortably wherever they are. This allows us to engage additional people who typically won’t come to public meetings – those with kids, lack of transportation, demanding schedules, or many other reasons, and we can solicit their opinion and involvement in a new way. We have successfully conducted virtual engagement on similar projects, so there is no learning curve. The following methods and tools can be customized for your situation: • Online Public Meeting: We can schedule an online public meeting so that anyone who is not able to attend in-person can participate through an online engagement tool called Zoom. The online meeting is facilitated in a way that informs and engages participants by inviting feedback through chat features and informal polling. Participants receive a link and the time, and a recording of the meeting can be distributed and posted after the event. • Public Meeting Livestream: During one of our on-site public meetings, for an additional fee, GreenPlay can livestream the meeting using either Facebook Live or Zoom. Using the chat feature, participants can ask questions and provide feedback. Typically, livestreams do not require registration, and the date/time of the event is advertised prior to the meeting. The public participation process will be customized to the City of Moses Lake’s unique situation, emphasizing data collection methods that are efficient, effective, and that incorporate your available resources to the greatest extent possible. Moses Lake Council Packet 3-29-21, Page 69 of 117 GreenPlay, LLC | Statement of Qualifications28 We use both qualitative and quantitative assessment tools, and all input tools will help build consensus and agreement on the plan and provide information for decision making to the City Council. Based on previous successes, the following citizen involvement strategy approach is designed to assure residents, user groups, associations, neighboring communities, and other stakeholders that they are provided an opportunity to participate in the plan’s development, and is recommended for this project. • Initial Information Gathering: Collection of as much information as possible on awareness, use patterns, satisfaction, desires, barriers, vision, priorities, funding possibilities, and willingness to pay, etc. • Focus Group Meetings: A minimum of three (3) focus groups, drawing from user individuals and groups, sports groups, advisory boards, community associations, other service providers (public, private and non-profit, etc.), and primary stakeholders such as youth; adults; seniors; other recreational, historic, and tourism providers; citizens with disabilities for inclusive programs; school officials; Parks and Recreation Advisory Board members; and other stakeholders, as mutually determined. • Stakeholder Interviews: During onsite visits and as appropriate (a minimum of three [3] meetings), we will meet with and/or have phone conversations with those who can contribute specific information that may need to be conveyed in a more detailed manner (might include representatives from neighboring communities, sister agencies, important non-profits, etc.). • Public Community Meetings with the Advisory Board (minimum of 3) One meeting during the information gathering portion of the project that will provide an introduction to the project (i.e., purpose, scope, expected outcomes) and an opportunity to offer input about the desires and needs of the community. One to present the findings of the updated needs assessment (i.e., community engagement results, inventory results, areas of focus for the recommendations) and an opportunity to participate in visioning and to provide comments about the information presented. One to present the Draft Plan Statistically-Valid Survey GreenPlay is a strong proponent of including surveys as part of all planning projects to most accurately reflect the quantitative needs of a community. While stakeholder meetings, focus groups, and public meetings allow us to draw in interested parties and users, a statistically-valid survey is the only defensible mechanism that provides feedback from NON-USERS, who are most likely taxpayers. We will work with RRC Associates (RRC), an experienced survey firm that has completed over 100 similar projects with GreenPlay, to create a geographically diverse survey to be mailed to a representative sample of households within the City of Moses Lake and the surrounding area. The survey will provide critical information in determining community values, satisfaction levels, needs and priorities, preferred marketing channels, level of awareness, current usage levels, and demographic information for long-range planning efforts. Citizens would be given the option of either completing the mailed survey form or accessing the survey online using an individual passcode (included in the mailed survey) assigned to each household. We frequently use this technique, finding it to be effective in maintaining the random sample while also increasing response opportunities. Questions would be drafted based on information gathered throughout the public involvement process as well as from staff, community leaders, and steering committee input. We would ask questions about what types of programs, facilities, and services residents want in their parks, trails, and recreation system, level of current usage, primary providers of services, alternative providers, quality and satisfaction levels with existing services and facilities, priorities, level of awareness of City-operated parks, trails, and recreation. These questions would be supplemented with questions about specific, identified community issues, as deemed appropriate. RRC will create a survey of four pages in length (including cover letter). To help improve response rates, we also anticipate that the City would assist with marketing and creating public awareness of the survey through media and other channels, such as local newspaper, radio, cable TV, City web site, etc. Moses Lake Council Packet 3-29-21, Page 70 of 117 Comprehensive Master Plan for Moses Lake Parks & Recreation 29 To potentially increase responses for analysis, we would also create an “open-link” web-based version of the survey for anyone who would like to provide feedback who did not receive the random/online survey invitation in the mail (if desired). These results would be coded separately to control for statistical- validity and sub-analysis. C. INVENTORY AND LEVEL OF SERVICE ANALYSIS As part of the Comprehensive Parks and Recreation Plan, all available base GIS materials will be utilized to compile a comprehensive, updated assessment of parks, recreation, open space, natural areas, wetlands, and trails. We will supplement the inventory of existing parks, recreation facilities, open space, cultural facilities, and trails including (but not limited to) research, mapping, and personal inspection and conditions of key parks, as needed. Level of Service Analysis To quantify current level of service (LOS) and make recommendations to ensure that uses/spaces meet current and future needs of the local community, our analysis will consider the capacity of each amenity as well as functionality, accessibility, condition, comfort and convenience. We will also identify alternative providers of parks and recreation services and recommendations for minimizing duplication and enhancing possibilities for partnerships where appropriate. We will work directly with City staff, using available inventory as a starting point. We will then create GIS resource maps of the data to prepare for analysis. Key issues regarding any of the assets from both staff and stakeholder perspectives will be noted. For an additional fee, we can add component based level of service analysis. We call our methodology GRASP®. This tool allows for a deeper analysis of the parks and recreation system. Demographics and Population Projections To provide insight into the potential market for the City’s parks, trails, and recreation programs and services, we will conduct a demographic analysis and market profile of the City of Moses Lake and the surrounding area. Our team will utilize all information available from previous planning efforts, the U.S. Census Bureau, the American Community Survey and tapestry segments, Esri, and other national and local sources. We will work directly with your leadership to help document growth and redevelopment areas and land use changes. A detailed demographic analysis based on service areas will outline trends and information that could affect the need for land acquisition, development, and regional planning. Moses Lake Council Packet 3-29-21, Page 71 of 117 GreenPlay, LLC | Statement of Qualifications30 Trends Analysis Strategic trends analysis will consider demographic shifts and their impact on future parks, trails, and recreation provisions. This analysis will also identify interest and participation levels for a variety of activities, assess how services are provided through both administrative and planning trends, including technology and customer service. This process includes strategic analysis of local, state, and national best practices, along with what is new in the field of parks, trails, open space, and recreation. Evaluation of Existing Standards Using the community demographic profile, stakeholder engagement results, and level of service analysis, we will assess the quality and quantity of programs and facilities provided by the City. We will evaluate the adequacy on the basis of size and location in relation to existing and future population. We will also make recommendations for minimizing duplication and/or enhancing possibilities for collaborative partnerships where appropriate. Programs and Services Gaps Analysis We will collect and analyze information on participation, needs, desires, operations, and management strategies for programming and service offerings, and make recommendations. We will identify areas of service shortfalls and projected impact of future trends. Using the results of the statistically-valid survey, focus groups, stakeholder meetings, needs assessment, current level of service, alternative providers in the market, and current capacity, GreenPlay will identify and prioritize the unmet programming needs in the community. The gaps in programs and services can be identified using the nexus of unmet need and high importance. Facility and Asset Gaps Analysis We will analyze the information on usage, needs, desires, operations, maintenance, land use trends, and make recommendations. We will identify areas of service shortfalls and projected impact of future trends. We will include programs and amenities offered by alternative providers into this analysis. D. DETERMINE THE DEPARTMENT’S STRATEGIC DIRECTION AND ANALYSIS OF FORECAST NEEDS Values and Vision Development Stakeholder engagement is critical in developing representative values and creating a vision reflecting the community’s interests and issues, as well as staff and governing body perspectives. There is benefit in mixing the public, staff and decision makers into one meeting within each area or community (both users and non-users). This step will continue to refine any previous work by your agency. Further involvement from staff, the public, and leaders will help vet and refine current values and community issues by articulating their views of the organization and the community, and contribute to the formulation of your agency’s vision. Moses Lake Council Packet 3-29-21, Page 72 of 117 Comprehensive Master Plan for Moses Lake Parks & Recreation 31 GreenPlay will provide workshops for combination of the three sectors identified (staff, public, and key community leader) to direct the Values and Vision Development process. The number of workshop forums will be determined during the Strategic Kick-off meeting. Values: We will work to further clarify and communicate the values message - the essential and enduring tenets of the community and agency. Vision: We will build upon previous work to create consensus on a concise yet compelling Vision Statement. Organizational Analysis GreenPlay will broadly assess the operational and management structure of the Parks and Recreation Department and staffing to determine effectiveness and efficiency in meeting current and future divisional responsibilities as related to the community’s needs. The needs assessment – including input from staff interviews, community and key stakeholder engagement, and level of service analysis, along with our expertise – will identify areas for enhancement including staffing, customer service, maintenance, communications, as well as operational efficiencies. DEVELOPMENT OF RECOMMENDATIONS AND IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES E. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE FUTURE AND ESTIMATED COSTS Present and Projected Fiscal Resources We realize that recommendations mean nothing without examining the financial resources necessary to move forward. We will consider the implications and possibilities at all stages. GreenPlay will conduct an overview analysis of existing funding to understand how the City is meeting current needs and, based on recommended improvements, determine if current funding sources are sufficient for both capital and operational costs. Based on the strategic recommendations that arise out of the needs assessment, we will identify probable operating, maintenance, and capital costs and recommendations for potential funding sources and mechanisms for the next ten (10) years. During the master plan process it is not unusual for communities to request additional services, such as preparing conceptual ideas for enhancing existing parks and generate corresponding conceptual level construction costs. Should this be a desire for Moses Lake, GreenPlay working with the BWA landscape architecture team would assist in conducting additional public input meetings to collect input and ideas and create these plans for further study and inclusion in the finished Comprehensive Master Plan for an additional fee. Cost Recovery and Resource Allocation GreenPlay is a national leader in teaching and developing innovative approaches to handling the often contentious financial issues of “how much taxpayer subsidy is enough?” or “where should the resources go?” GreenPlay has established and improved the “Pyramid” methodology for helping agencies create an overall philosophy and approach for resource allocation, program pricing, and cost recovery evaluation. We currently teach implementation and use of this straightforward but innovative methodology at conferences, and also train agencies and universities in this methodology. It is invaluable for making tough resource allocation decisions, and creating pricing and cost recovery strategies. This methodology will be helpful for evaluating the financial sustainability of the City’s parks, trails, and recreation system from both operational and capital funding aspects. As part of your project, we will use the concepts for identification of gaps and/or areas of non-consensus, along with introducing the concepts for this framework for decision making. Moses Lake Council Packet 3-29-21, Page 73 of 117 GreenPlay, LLC | Statement of Qualifications32 Note: A full detailed analysis of cost recovery, divisional budgets, and/or pricing is not typically included in a master planning project, but can be facilitated separately or concurrently for an additional fee, if this is determined to be a key focus area. Alternative Funding and Partnerships GreenPlay brings extensive experience in evaluating options for alternative funding. Alternative funding typically includes grants, donor programs, and/ or partnerships. Our Project Team will identify key partners in the area through the planning process and can provide management recommendations to enhance this potential funding area. Note that this task does not include procurement of alternative funding, but this can be addressed separately if desired. Findings Compilation, Validation, and Visioning GreenPlay team consultants will compile initial findings from the inventory, demographics, and needs assessments and will prepare a summary Findings Presentation for staff, decision makers, stakeholders, and the public to validate the accuracy of the findings. During this stage, we will confirm that all information identified and collected thus far is correct, and we will ask all stakeholders to share any additional issues or opportunities for consideration as we prepare to move forward into analysis and recommendations. Key Issues Analysis Matrix During the Findings Phase of each project, GreenPlay Project Managers compile a Key Issues Analysis Matrix that helps identify focus areas from the various tools and methodologies used to collect information. This matrix will help the City determine progress on goals set forth in the plan, and will serve as a basis for plan updates in the future. Visioning Strategies Development Workshop We will fully analyze identified findings to create implementable recommendations for your future. We want to be respectful of the staff’s time, while thoughtfully contributing our identified ideas, suggestions, qualitative, and quantitative findings. We also want to engage all interested members and key stakeholders in determining future vision and action plan steps for the City’s parks, trails, and recreation needs. Following review of the Findings, we will facilitate a Visioning Strategies Workshop that will include an analysis of all findings, including operational feasibility, political or historical constraints, and any other potential challenges. We will also identify opportunities for implementation steps, work plans, and funding implications. This Workshop will help provide an articulated guiding vision for future acquisition, development, and maintenance of parks, trails, and open space, with goals, desired outcomes, and standards identified to direct policy and acquisition for existing and proposed facilities. F. CREATE AN ACTION PLAN: STRATEGIC, CAPITAL, AND FINANCIAL Following the completion of Tasks A-F, we will develop a 10-year projection of parks and recreation system projects and estimated capital expenses. Capital Facilities Plan We will look at needs, desires and opportunities over the next 20 years and recommend an action plan with associated capital costs for renovation, new parks and facilities and park infill. We will evaluate both walk ability to parks and look through an equity lens related to location of new facilities, parks, and amenities. Action/Implementation Plan We will work with the project team to rank and prioritize recommendations, balancing needs and cost/ benefit analyses, capacity of the City, and budgetary realities. The product of this task will be a set of recommendations with strategies, priorities, and identification of budget support funding mechanisms phased into immediate, near-term, and long- Moses Lake Council Packet 3-29-21, Page 74 of 117 Comprehensive Master Plan for Moses Lake Parks & Recreation 33 term timeframes addressing needs regarding land acquisition, along with the development of parks and recreation programs and facilities.
