R-2021-157 authorizing a grant of up to $30,000 from Yakima County Supporting Investments in Economic Development (SIED) fund to support a traffic study for Yakima Chief Hops. WHEREAS, The City of Yakima has established that public safety, especially on public streets, is a Strategic Priority for the City Council; and WHEREAS, The City Council is committed to assisting existing businesses and the preservation of the community employment base. Retention of existing businesses in the City of Yakima is a priority, especially if there are specific actions that are feasible for City of Yakima to assist a business or employment center in the city; and WHEREAS, Yakima Chief Hops corporate office is located at 306 Division Street, in the City of Yakima where they employ 125 staff. Yakima Chief Hops has expressed a concern about employee safety as staff attempts to cross South 3rd Avenue at Division Street, due to the speed and volume of traffic on the city streets. Expansion of their existing campus is closely tied to the improvement of pedestrian safety; and WHEREAS, South 3rd Avenue is a classified Minor Arterial that carries approximately 16,500 Average Trips a Day (ADT) and is a designated truck route. As the annual hop harvest is delivered for processing, a significant volume of semi -trucks, both loaded and unloaded, access the campus site of Yakima Chief Hops. In addition, during this hop harvest time, the volume of employee pedestrians and hop clients significantly increases. Pedestrian facilities are not adequate to address safety concerns; and WHEREAS, the improvement of city streets to improve public safety is a priority. In this case, Yakima Chief Hops is a significant community employment center and public street bisect the campus area, making public improvements a joint interest to the City and the private industry., now, therefore, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF YAKIMA: The City Manager is hereby authorized to submit of the grant application with the Yakima County "Supporting Investments in Economic Development" program in the amount of Thirty thousand dollars ($30,000) in order to hire a professional traffic consultant to determine the most appropriate improvement and provide a cost estimate of the necessary infrastructure investment.

Traffic and Safety Study for Yakima Chief Hop Campus Expansion Project Title: Project Summary: Describe the public infrastructure project and the private development that will occur. Explain why the private development requires the public infrastructure project: The request from the City of Yakima is to assist Yakima Chief Hops in determining the appropriate public street improvements necessary to address traffic and safety issues related to a campus expansion plan in the immediate vicinity of their existing campus at 306 Division Street, in the City of Yakima. Creation of a safe and efficient street network around the Yakima Chief Hop campus is an essential component to to the corporate decision about retention and expansion of the existing campus location. The first phase of this request is to produce a recommendation on the needed improvements. This will be accomplished via a contract with a professional engineering firm to assess the existing traffic conditions as well as analysis of the nature, frequency and severity of pedestrian and vehicular collisions in the vicinity of the existing campus. Likewise the existing street network will be reviewed for deficiencies related to lane configuration, turning radius, pedestrian accommodations, street lighting, traffic control measures. Improvements to public streets must meet engineering warrants and City design standards The mixture of on -site, large vehicles (semi -trucks) and pedestrians with the background volume and speed of traffic on South 3rd Avenue and Division Street creates a complex traffic environment. A variety of improvements will be reviewed and evaluated Application for Funding, 2018 Page 4 Yakima County SIED Program Indicate the Minimum Necessary Total Public Project Infrastructure Costs (no more than $1,000,000 total award from SIED when loan and grant combined): SIED Loan Requested: $ 30,000 SIED Grant Requested: $ LocaI Match (20% of SIED request) $ All Other Funding Sources: $ 30,000 Total Public Project Cost: $ Total Private Investment in Plant/Equipment: $ 28/96 Total Jobs Created/Retained: 27.52 Median Wage: $ Average Wage: $ Healthcare, Dental, PTO Fringe Benefits Offered: TBD Estimated Assessed Value of the New Plant/Equipment: $ Total SIED Request divided by Total Jobs Created/Retained: $ 1,071 Total Private Investment in Plant/Equipment divided by Total SIED Request: $ Other Benefits of the Public Infrastructure Project: Yakima Chief Hops representative Art Ortega , Director of Facilities and Regulatory Compliance describes the campus expansion project as follows: TBD "The headquarters of Yakima Chief Hops (YCH) is located at 306 Division St (SW corner of the intersection) while our R&D Lab, Sensory Room, 2 Warehouses, are located in 203 Division St (NE side next to Amerigas) and our Pelleting, Small Pack facilities and 3 Warehouses are located at 204 Division St (SE corner of the intersection), respectively. Employees and including customers often cross this intersection of Division St and 3rd Ave as they conduct their day-to-day business. The foot traffic in this intersection is heaviest during hops harvest. In the past, we have used parking spaces of other properties (with their permission) to accommodate any parking overflow...see 3 highlighted areas below. In terms of expansion, there has been talks in the past about possibly acquiring the warehouse owned by S.S. Steiner...see highlighted building below. Another possibility is possibly acquiring the AmeriGas Propane property. To reiterate our CEO's letter to the City of Yakima, Safety at Yakima Chief Hops (YCH) is our highest priority. Safety training is not only given to full time employees but also to part time and seasonal employees to ensure that everybody is on the same page when it comes to safety. YCH provides in -class training, hand -on training, and/or whenever possible an expert of that field is brought in to provide their insight and real life perspective. The unsafe intersection between Division St and 3rd Ave has resulted with an annual average rate of 4 to 5 accidents per year (according to our Warehouse Manager) with the latest accident occurring last October 18, 2021 when a Subaru vehicle was hit and deployed its airbag' Accident like this could be fatal to any pedestrian. Back in 2016, YCH has invested in purchasing the existing strobe lights worth —$9,000 in this intersection of Division St and 3rd Ave. Despite the installation and operation of these strobe lights, it is simply not enough deterrent because in some cases the cars just don't stop. It is why YCH is requesting for the next step in safety ..a 4-way traffic light. Application for Funding, 2018 Page 5 Yakima County S!ED Program A. Public Sector Project Al.

Existing facility Describe the entire public facility project, including the parts that you are not asking SIED to fund Yakima Chief Hops, 306 Division Street is the largest supplier of hops in the United States. They are currently in the planning process to determine if they will stay in this location. Integral to their decision is the need to improve pedestrian safety and campus integration on both sides of South 3rd Avenue. The requested funds will establish a contract for a professional study and identify appropriate improvements to the street system in order to accomplish the campus plans, in a way that also meets City of Yakima public street standards. The specific street improvement is not known without the study. Campus expansion plans have been provided in a general format to the City and shared with the SIED board. A3. Specifically, for what element(s) of the public project are SIED funds requested? At this time, the SIED funds are requested for the improvement study. A future SIED application is anticipated when the improvement is determined to pay for intersection, sidewalk, traffic control and related improvements. Application for Funding, 2018 Page 6 Yakima County SIED Program A4. Describe how the public facility project will enhance or encourage other development in the immediate area in addition to the direct development described in this application section C. Improvement of the intersection of South 3rd Avenue and Division Street would provide a safer environment for the existing Yakima Chief Hops campus, as well as the South 3rd Avenue corridor. The intersection of Division Street with South 3rd Ave also provides access to the city arterial street network for a number of other industrial land uses both west and eat of South 3rd Avenue. South 3rd Avenue is a Minor Arterial Street that carries approximately 16,500 average daily vehicle trips. It is classified as a T-4 Freight Route. The Division Street intersection with South 3rd Avenue is one-half mile north of the intersection with Nob Hill Boulevard, which provides direct access to 1-82. This is a very important freight corridor. Improving freight routes to the Interstate system (1-82) and providing neighborhood safety are the most immediate enhancements of this project which needs to be evaluated and engineered. A5.

Second Street, 2nd Floor Yakima, WA 98902 Please receive this letter as my formal request to be considered as an applicant for Yakima County SIED Program Investment funds. As the largest supplier of hops in the United States, Yakima Chief Hops (YCH), is proud to locate our corporate office at the address of 306 Division Street in the City of Yakima. Currently, we are leasing this office building. In the next twelve months, we will be considering if we will stay at this location, invest in a complete building upgrade, and continue to increase our office staff here. One large deterrent from us investing further in this building is the lack of a four-way traffic light to support the crossing of Third Avenue. We currently own 6 buildings on the East side of Third Avenue. Our staff and our customers are currently at a severe safety risk when we need to cross this street. Safety is Yakima Chief Hops highest priority. Our company takes pride in the fact that we work wisely to keep all of our employees safe. With a strong focus on the safety of our people, we believe that our current street crossing at Third Avenue and Division Street is of great importance to our company, our people and our community. From my review of the Yakima County SIED Program, it seems like this project would be an ideal opportunity to receive support. Yakima Chief Hops is interested in applying for SIED funds. If these funds are awarded, Yakima Chief Hops will continue to grow and enhance the local community that we work in. Please advise on next steps for us to pursue an application for SIED funds. If you have any further questions regarding the importance of this, please don't hesitate to reach out to me directly.
