(USKH), Ballard*King and Associates (B*K), and Water Technology, Inc. (WTI). II. SCOPE OF SERVICES The CONSULTANT agrees to perform certain consulting, planning studies, and/or advisory services for the CITY. These tasks are outlined as follows: A general description of each task has been included below to assist in scope assessment and project understanding. A list of deliverables intended for the specific tasks along with a trip summary are also noted. The trip summary denotes trip quantity and associated team member and is intended for scoping purposes only. Actual timing of trips will be flexible to accommodate project conditions and the CITY's specifics. Additionally, selected tasks have denoted "stakeholder involvement and/or community engagement" as a deliverable. This task could include various engagement processes such as public awareness, stakeholder data collection, focus group (large stakeholder group) involvement and/or steering committee (small decision making group) meetings. However, meeting specifics have not yet been determined, as actual involvement, group make-up, and schedule will require development with the City of Yakima during the preliminary planning process. CONSULTANT intends to be extremely flexible with these meetings to accommodate both City of Yakima and community needs. A. Market Study A thorough and detailed economic analysis of your proposed facilities, including evaluation of such items as population and growth, per capita incomes, area demographics, market penetration rates, etc. will be investigated and evaluated to provide information for the development of your aquatic facilities plan. Deliverables: ■ Written narrative • Various market information and data • Stakeholder involvement and/or community engagement Trips: ■ (1) USKH ■ (1) B*K B. Site Location Analysis Provide site location evaluation, assessment, analysis, and site selection assistance for various proposed aquatic center sites, as yet undetermined.

Planning and design will include general facility components, site design, aquatic components and program, general amenity selection and phasing, and master plan development. It is anticipated that an interactive collaborative conceptual planning and programming process, encompassing key stakeholders and possibly key community members, will be utilized. Actual participants shall be determined with City of Yakima assistance. (jc)/USKH Consultant Services Agreement Page 2 Additionally, CONSULTANT will develop "Order of Magnitude" project costs, which are planning estimates used for scoping studies and preliminary budget estimating. These estimates will include overall project components, design criteria, significant features, etc., associated with the facility. Estimates will be based on assumed square footage costs and/or specific component cost assumptions based on our database of similar facilities and previous cost experience.

Deliverables The following is a list of the anticipated deliverable items for CITY's project: Aquatic Center Feasibility Study and Report — three bound originals ■ Refer to tasks above for specific items in report 1. Tasks Not Included This proposal does not include any geotechnical evaluations/reports, site surveys and/or mappings, environmental studies, cultural resource data, biological review of site, and/or hazardous materials surveys. Additionally, traffic studies and mitigation improvements are also not included since they are not anticipated to be required at this time. However, it is strongly recommended that a geotechnical evaluation report, as well as a site survey, be prepared for the proposed selected site. The geotechnical evaluation report would identify sub -surface conditions (Le., soil bearing capacity, groundwater issues, drainage concerns, etc.), which could impact costs, construction methods, and/or soil suitability, while the site survey would clarify boundary parameters, infrastructure, topography, easements, and other (jc)/USKH Consultant Services Agreement Page 4 site related items. CONSULTANT can retain the services of a licensed geotechnical engineer and has in-house surveying capabilities if these additional services are desired and/or necessary as the project progresses.

Discovery Island Waterpark enjoyed 118,000 guests in its first season. Prior to the waterpark, Greenville had only traditional pools within their disct. These pools were popular 30 years ago but have little entertainment value today. Discovery Island Waterpark has found its niche in the family market and serves an intergenerational genre. On any given clay you will see the entire family spectrum - parents, grandparents, small children, and teens. The waterpark is not only a fun place for families but is reasonably priced and affordable by the residents. The total project funding was $2.7 million; this was paid for without raising taxes.

South Side Pool, Aberdeen, SD r I 'he primary goal of the Aberdeen pool study was to explore the feasibility of the future aquatic needs for the City of Aberdeen through market analysis programming, site evaluation, concept design and operations. The age, condition of existing aquatic facilities, expectations of the City's residents, and advancement of new family aquatic center options all factored in the City's decision to complete the study. WTI prepared four concepts that illustrated a variety of pool components, sizes, configurations, and building entrance locations on their chosen site. Each of these concepts were developed.to progressively include inoie piogiam elements. The final master plan that will move the project forward is a refined concept that -includes the leisure Tool and lazy river along. with an. 8-1=e, 50 -meter pool.

The City of Greeley also has an Indoor Recreation Center with children's pool, current channel, and multi-purpose pool including plunge area, leisure pool, and lap lanes, designed by WTI. For this project, WTI took a comprehensive approach to reviewing Greeley's aquatic needs, both for meeting current and future needs of the community. The project started by looking at the representational coverage areas for all of the existing and future facilities. These areas help to identify the areas of Greeley lacking development. The plan that was developed showed the need for replacement of the Island Grove and Sunrise existing pools with water playgrounds; a renovation of the Centennial Park facility, and the development of a new Family Aquatic Center to serve the aquatic recreational needs of the City of Greeley. WTI detailed the specific budgets for all of the proposed work and developed the specific concepts for each facility. In addition, they explored the branding or identity for each of the facilities and tied that back to a central theme running through all of Greeley's facilities. WTI proposed that in addition to physical renovation of each facility, a unique identity be created for each facility throng � the yse of a unique, easily identifiable logo. I!

The stipulation was that the ground breaking had to take place by July 1, 2005. The City formed two committees, one for the planning and one for the sole purpose of raising money. The dedication and hard work of these committees was an integral part of the success of the project. Several key issues in this project included a site location plan that would place the pool in the Most accessible place for all of the City's neighborhoods. WTI and the Ad Hoc Pool Committee studied nine sites -J -VQsLb111ty of to VatLVn, parking, transportation, demographics, and technical aspects.

Family Aquatic Center. Hopkinsville, KY The City of Hopkinsville hired WTI to work with the Hopkinsville-Christian County JL Planning Commission for the design of their new family aquatic center. The Commission wanted to make sure that the residents of Hopkinsville were provided family -fun aquatic recreation and that the design appealed to their diverse market; children of all ages and abilities. The aquatic center, which will be completed early fall of 2006, encompasses a true family entertainment venue - there is something for everyone. Children will enjoy playing in the zero -depth area with the interactive play equipment that includes water cannons, spraying water, small slides, and tipping buckets surrounded by water geysers. The tube slide exits into the lazy river where guests can choose to continue along the river or exit the pool. The spring of 2007 will mark the beginning of a fun summer of swimming and congregating at the new Hopkinsville Family Aquatic Center!

Family Aquatic Center, Manitowoc, WI WTI worked with the City of Manitowoc to perform an aquatic study to determine what type of aquatic facility would best meet the needs of their community. The primary goal was to develop an outdoor aquatic facility that appealed to youth, adults, and families. The second planning objective was to develop facilities that would support the local inter- ests of competitive swimming and diving. Lastly, the City wanted to provide new opportu- nities for casual non -water recreation activities for youth and adults (picnic areas, sand play, etc.) and provide an enhanced aesthetic quality to the pool environment through signage, furniture, appurtenances, and landscaping. WTI evaluated four potential sites and compared them for accessibility, adjacent land use, available utilities, and special considerations such as if the site had an existing pool, would it displace other recreational ac- tivities or would land acquisition be required. After design and programming meetings with the city and citizen survey tabulations the recommended program includes a 15,000 SF leisure pool with zero depth, play areas, six -lane 25 -yard lap pool,a family water flume slide, a 500 —1,500 SF spray pad, a 600 - 800 LF lazy river with adventure chan- nel, and an inner tube flume slide with direct access into the lazy river. Other features include reservable shade shelters, turf and picnic areas, sand play area, and con- cessions area. WTI will work with the City of Manitowoc for the second phase of their project, which includes final design, construction documents, construction administra- tion, and start up. Milwaukee County Parks Aquatics Master PI -An, Milwaukee County, Wauwatosa, WI The Center for Urban Initiatives and Research (CUIR) at the University of Wisconsin 1 — Milwaukee was commissioned by Milwaukee County Parks in 1995 to provide a study of targeted aquatic facilities as well as a recreational survey of area residents. This survey resulted in the evaluation and renovation of s,Nrne facilities such as Cool Waters in Greenfield Park, Pelican Cove in Kosciuszko Park, and the water playground in Carver Park. In order to complete the aquatics vision, WTI was commissioned in 1999 by Milwaukee County Parks to develop an Aquatics Master Plan for the entire county. The pioee included the at. evaluation' and inventory of fifteen outdoor and three indoor community aquatic facilities and the integration of these facilities. .into a cornprehensivesystera for the future. IikAPV,V#VgleMI, P.3 Splash Country Aquatic Facility, Fox Valley Park District, Aurora, IL The WTI and Leisure Concepts & Design team worked with the Fox Valley Park 1 District for the market study and master plan of three facilities within their district. The first facility that was eventually designed and completed by WTI was the Phillips Park renovation. The second facility that had been master planned and is now a successful aquatic facility is the Splash Country Aquatic Facility at the Blackberry Farm Site. WTI has now completed working with the Fox Valley Park District on the third design of an indoor Family Aquatic Center that was designed based on the growing population. Splash Country Aquatic Center was completed in 1998 for the Fox Valley Park District in Aurora, Illinois. The aquatic center is built near the popular Blackberry Farm and Pioneer Village, which houses agricultural treasures in several museums throughout this "country theme" park. The aquatic center carries the "farm theme" throughout the park using red barns for changing facilities and the concession area. Also used are silos and antique farm equipment to complement this theme. The park features a leisure pool, lazy river, plunge pool for tube slide rides, and a separate spray pool. Non -aquatic amenities include a sand play area and sand volleyball courts.

Due to the unique design as well as the additional revenue generating features such as the fitness component, event rooms, and food court, this facility is designed to accomplish just that. The aquatic center includes over 12,000 SF of outdoor water area, a warm water zero -entry indoor activity/special needs pool, an 8 - lane 25 -yard competitive lap pool, and spectator seating. In addition, the 33,000 SF building houses all of the administration, lifeguard, first aid, concession, storage, and locker room facilities. The outdoor facility incorporates a 7,000 SF wave pool, a 4,000 SF zero entry activity pool with interactive play features, a three -flume water slide complex, and a 400 -foot long lazy river. The indoor natatorium was developed in conjunction with the local high school and swim clubs to meet their specific training and competition needs. The deck area was designed to accommodate spectator seating, instructional activities, and equipment storage. Prior to joining USKH, Greg McCracken was the project architect and project liaison for this $8,000,000 multi-purpose indoor and outdoor aquatics facility. Greg provided full architectural programming, design, contract document preparation, and construction administration services for this project. He was also actively involved in site feasibility and selection, community awareness and consensus building, County Commission and facility committee presentations, as well as numerous other aspects of the community development process.

He is well suited for this project because of his extensive architectural experience with master planning and feasibility studies. Additional Advantages ome additional unique advantages that our aquatic design team can provide include the following: 0 Peer Review and Concept Evaluation: Due to USKH's multi -disciplined resources as well as our pay tnership with Kevin Johnston of KJ Design, renowned regional aquatic facility operations and programming consultant, we can provide a thorough and detailed peer review and concept evaluation. This quality control process and peer evaluation will include analysis of the data assumptions, conceptual design, programming, and site design. Infrastructure, traffic, aquatics operations, staffing, and component selection, along with cost assumptions, will be reviewed and evaluated by unbiased professionals. This will give the City of Yakima full confidence in the direction and/or recommendations of the final study prior to finalizing the public support component. Revenue Generation: Much of the success of this facility will rely on the ability to generate revenue and offset operations and maintenance costs to the greatest extent possible. Along with proper planning and component selection, providing other avenues to increase revenue will increase the potential for economic success. Due to our team's vast experience, we will be able to provide the City with key insights into additional revenue generation opportunities. Equipment and tube rentals, locker rentals, and reservable shade structures are just some avenues for rental revenue, while kiosks, aquatic display areas (sunscreen, swim diapers, squirt guns, etc.), vending, and concessions provide product sales opportunities. Additionally, event rooms, birthday areas, arcade, and video spaces allow for special events and group reservations. Furthermore, developing a multi -use facility that accommodates multiple program opportunities for fitness classes, learn -to -swim events, swimming lessons, lifeguard training, senior wellness, and various other programs enhances revenue possibilities and increases participation. All of these items will be explored, discussed, and evaluated for their cost benefit to the facility. Theming: As the competition increases in the aquatic facility arena, more and more facilities have begun theming their pools to attract and retain clientele. Our team is well versed at developing themes and creating water park atmospheres. Additionally, and more importantly, we understand the cost impacts of theming a facility, including both revenue opportunities and operational expenses. Although theming can draw the critical business to assist in sustaining a facility, it can be costly. Theming is not an end unto itself. Our team understands the key balance of ensuring that the viable aquatic attractions and critical mass are included, while providing creative approaches to a themed environment. Indoor and Competition Facilities: Although we have emphasized our outdoor aquatics expertise, our team's experience and proficiency extends to indoor aquatic recreation facilities, competition venues, and natatoriums. We understand the harsh environmental concerns of these indoor facilities and are extremely familiar with the design and construction of these challenging building types. Our team has extensive experience with indoor aquatic facilities and their specific requirements and construction costs. This knowledge will be helpful when evaluating existing area facilities as well as analyzing the size and scope of the proposed facility. In both large and small group formats, the design team leads you through a process of facilitation, questions and answers, concept sketching, and consensus building. Included in the dialogue will be examples of various aquatic centers, features, and layouts. We will commit to being extremely flexible with these sessions and utilize a wide array of communication techniques and media (i.e., revenue charts, attendance graphs, various layouts, component pictorials, etc.) to best convey information and communicate with diverse croups. We believe Y_'_ the I -C_ ..J 4 y .7,. 4,. the build develop t vinrt this is most effective way to educate the community, build consensus, develop support, and design a facility that meets the unique needs of the City of Yakima. Community Support Study Gur community support process incorporates various tasks, such as the analysis of _ community conditions, projection of community support, as well as proposed bond campaign strategies and a marketing pian. Balard*King, our team's community support specialists, has extensive experience with the public input process. Well over 75 % of the planning processes that Ballard*King is involved with require a public support and analysis element. Ballard*King has successfully utilized scientifically valid surveys (mail and phone) as a way to gain specific insight as to what citizens think about a project. They have partnered with Leisure Vision to conduct over 40 such surveys ;tit the: Last 10 years. It is not enough to simply conduct a thorough public process; the results of such input must be effectively integrated into the project and must ultimately shape the results. Our team members have the unique ability to compile and interpret the data received from a number of input sources so the information can be utilized to determine the direction and program for the facility. In addition, USKH and WTI have assisted many communities in developing, preparing, and presenting co nmunity support materials and information for projects similar to -'--�� with the Walla :I T,.7h,. Family Aquatics i'�z..-.4® �,� yours, including our current assistance Walla vvalha Aquatics Center and s County South Side _ s Facility. Our key i members L,._. .. -4' the Spokane County South Side Aquatic Facilil.y. tears members have years of hands-on experience facilitating community awareness meetings and providing various informational gathering services. You will find that we know how to partner effectively and lead the process without dominating it. However, the success of our community support approach does not primarily hinge on our technical expertise and experience. Our community support program begins the moment we begin the feasibility study process. Pro -actively engaging the community, developing relationships, and identifying key community groups and advocates from the beginning of the study process maximizes the value of our services and provides the critical awareness, support, and information necessary for the success of your community support campaign. Our team is fully committed to providing you this critical availability and community involvement from the first meeting through bond campaign success. m,Zoning: Allowing for high activity zones and more private/quiet zones as well as creating age-specific pockets increases user comfort, safety, and duration of stay. Future Expansion: It is critical to design for future elements to stimulate interest 1•during the 3-5 year facility operations. The USKH team will employ a project approach that has achieved a high degree of success for our clients, specifically multiple agency and municipality projects 1 such as yours. We encourage an interactive zu�� approach for the conceptual planning and programming process. Our aquatics design alp team firmly believes in utilizing a true public process in recreation planning. Well;i, believe that the only way to ensure that a parks and recreation district will ultimately fill the needs of a community and meet the expectations of the public is to involve them in the planning process. Our project team does not believe that simply utilizing one single input mechanism is enough, and we will often incorporate three to four different tools to gain public input, reaction, and ultimately, consensus for a recreation project. Each project team member is well versed in conducting public workshops and focus group sessions in a manner that engages the audience and brings them directly into the planning process. Our techniques are specifically designed to allow for full community input, which includes those community members with a more quiet or subdued approach. We are skilled at ensuring that a single individual and/or excessively vocal small group does not dominate the process. The key to any successful public process starts with a project steering committee that is assembled from representatives of the community; they become the conduit to the people for the project, as well as a sounding board for the consultant team. A strong, well -organized committee with clearly defined goals and a clear understanding of their role is essential. We suggest 2-3 day work sessions where a myriad of concepts and ideas relative to aquatic centers will be explored and developed. These planning sessions are an inclusive process that will bring the City of Yakima, the Parks and Recreation Department, key stakeholders, and community members together and build a steering committee that stays with the project throughout the programming, design, and development of the Aquatic Facilities Master Plan.

Component Selection: Combining the right blend and the right sized aquatic components, along with the appropriate mass of water area, will maximize use and increase attendance for all user groups. Moving Water: The "Magic of Moving Water" provides interest, uniqueness, and enjoyment. Concessions: Identifying the correct mix of concessions (i.e., vending, packaged/ prepared, or full-service) can have a significant impact on both duration of stay and revenue generated. Amenity Selection: Proper amenity selection increases revenue potential as well as user enjoyment. Areas to be explored include items such as event rooms, sand play, volleyball, reservable shelters, night lighting, video/activity areas, fitness components, etc. Capital Funding Source Analysis ®ne of the major challenges for most public recreation projects is determining a viable method for funding the capital development costs as well as a possible operational subsidy for a center. It has become increasingly clear that a number of different funding sources may need to be tapped for a center to become a reality. Funding a capital project solely from a tax -backed bond initiative is becoming more and more challenging. Our team has extensive experience in developing realistic funding strategies that involve a number of sources. From alternative tax funding through Park and Recreation Service Areas, Park and Recreation Districts, and other similar tax entities, to the use of impact fees and other mechanisms, these options deserve consideration and analysis. Additionally, all of these options will be coordinated with the City's bond counsel and/or financial manager. More importantly, identifying non -tax sources is even more crucial. One of the mechanisms that this team has used most effectively is partnering with other governmental agencies, other providers, and even private sector entities. Many projects now involve multiple partners. A careful partnership assessment is needed to determine realistic opportunities for organizations to establish financial interests in a project that will benefit all the parties. Beyond partnerships, the team will actively explore other alternative funding sources that could be utilized for such a project. From grants and fundraising to the use of foundations and other private sources of money, realistic funding options will be investigated and analyzed. Site Loc Gtion Study The site location and selection study is a comprehensive look at numerous variables 1 including both market study information and physical site parameters, such as parking, access, solar and wind pathing, infrastructure issues, acquisition costs, site construction costs, aquatic component size constraints, and other items that will become apparent during the study. Our aquatic design team will lead this comprehensive deep look site study, and coordinating aquatic facility needs, market study data, and economic feasibility. We will use our established weighted matrix format to objectively evaluate site location and feasibility while.building community and key stakeholder consensus. We will work with the City of Yakima key stakeholders to develop weighted importance factors and include the relevant critical market analysis information in the matrix, including target age and demographic areas, population growth rates, underserved neighborhoods, and concentration locations. Due to USKH's uniquely positioned regional offices (Walla Walla, Spokane, and Ferndale, WA, and Lewiston, ID) and multi -disciplinary professionals, the site analysis process w iii be extremely detailed and accurate. Not only does our design team fully understand the aquatic issues, i 1SKI-3's -hili complement of professionals, including civil, traffic, and environmental engineers, bring an in-depth understanding to all site issues involving infrastructure, traffic, soils, grading and earthwork, off-site improvements, storm water control, land use, and environmental concerns. Additionally, lead architect Greg ivicCracken's life-long Washington residency and well-established regional aquatic facility experience will prove invaluable when developing siting, climate pattern impacts, and accurate cost estimating. Fii ldiicicti Arialysis lit is our recommendation that this analysis be integral with the above noted market study. i.Analysis of anticipated attendance patterns, revenue projections, operating and net income, estimated salaries, admissions mix, ticket per capita, facility requirements, and trends would be included in our comprehensive economic analysis. Our team will also develop a detailed operating proforma representing realistic expenses and revenue. Expenses will be developed on the determined season length while revenue will be calculated on a shorter, more conservative season length. We use our past experience and database with local area aquatics facilities to create accurate revenue generating projections for day -use and uon- ue weather days. . Our approach to the economic analysis of your facility is also a holistic process and will include assessment of three main categories; primary impacts, secondary impacts, and indirect impacts. Primary impacts consist of such items as employee salaries and purchases of goods and services directly relating to the facility operations. Secondary impacts are the spin-off effects due to the primary impacts and tourism. Finally, the indirect impacts realize a broader economic benefit as a result of the aquatic center. Intangible bene "s are ose the quality of life, benefit area schools and community developers, create a focal point for area youth, boost the ability to market homes, and improve the community image. Analyzing both specific facility financial feasibility and overall community economic influence allows for better decision making, and increases the opportunity to build consensus and education the community. SCORE F. Off. Below is a summary of the requested services as outlined in your RFQ, and our teams suggested approach, expertise, background, and experience. Following these requested projec. components, we have included other key issues that we believe exemplify the unparalleled insight and expertise our team can bring to your project. Market Study Athorough and detailed economic analysis of your proposed facilities, including evaluation of such items as population and growth, per capita income, area demographics, hotel/motel room sales, market penetration rates, and many other factors will be investigated and evaluated to provide invaluable information for the development of your aquatic facilities plan. We will review both the primary and secondary service areas to best identify the precise geographical service areas. Travel distances and routes as well as competing recreational facilities, both wet and dry, will be mapped, studied, and evaluated. Socioeconomic mix is also a key element in community mapping. Our team is skilled at evaluating income, age, population growth rate, and concentration areas as they relate to your project's success. Identifying population segments that are underserved will e critical when selecting aquatic components and they should be carefully evaluated using a cost benefit analysis. The primary service area can vary in size and penetration success may vary with the type of components selected, while the secondary service area is more readily influenced by special programs, facility options, and event =opportunities. Dry area recreational facilities (i.e., amusement parks, cinemas, malls, etc.) as well as outdoor recreation use, including the Yakima River itself, will also be thoroughly analyzed for impact. This information, along with a community needs assessment and neighboring community analysis, will be developed to determine condition and use of existing facilities, current program needs, current and projected demand, percentage of non-resident attendance, and competition. In addition to numerical data gathering, one of the best ways to research these elements is to visit and attend adjacent community facilities. Not only are we committed and positioned to do just that, we have also begun the process. Because of our team's significant Washington aquatic experience, many of our team members have visited, investigated, and/or developed many of the existing regional facilities. We understand the success of the Moses Lake facility and the smaller more traditional Ephrata pool. We are also aware of the ongoing interest in new facilities in such areas as Walla Walla and the Tri -Cities. All of these neighboring facilities will influence the planning and design of your aquatic center. Because of this extensive database, market understanding, project experience, and in-depth regional understanding, our data, along with the critical evaluation, will be decisively accurate and reliable as we proceed to the next phases. 1 This team of professionals specializes in both municipal and aquatic recreation facilities planning and design, including the desired feasibility studies and master planning services for the City of Yakima. We understand the complexities and challenges of planning for aquatic facilities, and for the parks, open space, and land use required to support the development of these facilities. Not only does our team have the skills and experience to assemble reliable and accurate economic, financial, and market information, we also have the knowledge and communication :F skills necessary to educate the community, City, and key stakeholders on the impacts and implications of this critical data. It will be our responsibility to guide the City of Yakima through the pros and cons of each decision, determination, and/or direction. Our team can successfully support the City of Yakima throughout the entire process. he idea of developing a Regional Aquatic Center can be daunting, Understanding and evaluating program needs, facility size, aquatic 1iULUpV11GUL, location, G.'JUuUill+ impacts, operating costs, community support, funding, and a host of other complex issues can be a monumental task. Careful planning and a comprehensive feasibility study, as proposed by the City of Yakima, is one of the first and most critical steps to ensure success. ecause of the critical nature of this initial step, it is imperative that the team you select has a comprehensive understanding of the planning and analysis ,of aquatic facilities.
