Our proposed approach
The exact approach we undertake for your PRMP
Update and Impact Fee Study depends on your
preferences and experience to-date - which we
will resolve with you prior to proceeding. In the
meantime, we have organized your objectives
into the following scope of work based on your
RFQs and our experience with similar projects.
1: Initiate/monitor process
Task 1a: Conduct retreat/progress sessions
with PARC
We will conduct an in-person or Zoom workshop
with your Parks, Art & Recreation Commission
(PARC), Planning Commission, City Council, and
others you deem appropriate to strategize
about:
§ Your vision and assessment of work
completed since your 2016 PRMP Plan,
Waterfront Plan, Comprehensive Plan, current
impact fees, and any other studies, plans, and
projects.
§ Who and how to involve your public,
nonprofit, and for-profit providers, user groups,
and public including Arlington School District,
Snohomish County, Arlington Chamber of
Commerce, Boys & Girls Club, disability, youth,
senior, athletic, environment, arts, cultural
advocacy groups, and property developers,
among others.
Progress review sessions - we will review
progress with you and your staff on a bi-weekly
basis, with your PARC on a monthly basis, and
with your City Council at milestone tasks during
in-person or Zoom workshop review sessions.
Your workshop participants will clarify policy
issues and the scope of each following task of
work.
Website – we will develop branding messages
and materials and establish webpage
connections or develop a stand-alone website
providing schedules, surveys, progress reports,
draft plan, and implementation proposals for
public review and comment.
Task 1b: Evaluate alternative impact fee
approaches
We will inventory and evaluate park impact fee
strategies, ordinances, fee amounts, as well as
the basis for and outcome of court challenges
realized by other cities in Washington State
using information compiled by the Municipal
Research Services Center (MRSC), Association of
Washington Cities (AWC), Washington Recreation
& Parks Association (WRPA), and others.
We will identify and evaluate the alternative
approaches available based on your park and
recreation plan objectives, existing park
inventory, projected park capital facilities
program, expected population growth, assumed
dwelling unit types, and other characteristics.
We will also compare your employment and
commercial related square footage and
employee totals to evaluate the advisability and
feasibility of establishing park impact fees for
your employment and commercial zones in
addition to a residentially based impact fee.
We will also evaluate the basis for and outcome
of various court challenges to each approach
and the potential implications were each
alternative approach to be applied to your
circumstances listed above.
You will review and decide which approach you
want us to pursue on the development of your
updated park impact fees.
2: Conduct public outreach
Task 2a: Conduct interviews and workshops
with user groups and jurisdictions
We will conduct in-person or Zoom workshops
with Arlington School District, Snohomish
County, Arlington Chamber of Commerce, Boys
& Girls Club, property developers, and other
parties of interest that you identify in Task 1a
to determine user profiles, service areas, issues,
and suggestions about joint venture
development, programming, operating, or
maintaining opportunities of interest as well as
impact fee methodologies.
Task 2b: Conduct outreach surveys
We will conduct on-line surveys of your
residents, students, and tourists:
§ Survey residents - to determine their
reason for using or not using your programs
BECKWITH 3
and facilities and events, level of satisfaction or
dis-satisfaction, desires for future programs or
facilities or events, and preferences concerning
financing measures
§ Survey school students - to determine their
recreation program involvement, satisfaction,
interests, and desires for future school,
intramural, and after school city programs or
facilities. We will develop ‘kids-at-risk’
assessments of the characteristics of students
who are not involved in your or any other
organization’s outreach programs including
their reasons for not participating.
§ Survey tourists – with the Arlington
Chamber of Commerce and Downtown
Association interest and support, to determine
their use of your parks, art, recreation
programs, and special events.
Task 2c: Conduct planning/design workshops
We will conduct in-person or Zoom and
StoryMap interactive workshops to brainstorm
6-20 year planning proposals with your
residents and user group interests including:
§ Open space and wildlife interest groups,
§ On and off-road trail user groups,
§ Athletic leagues and user organizations,
§ Aquatic, art, recreation, child, teen, senior,
and special population program users.
§ Youth and senior interest groups
§ Disability advocacy groups
§ Non-participating populations
§ Tourism special event promoters
We will conduct the workshops where your
participants jointly create (and we illustrate) as
many ideas as possible for every type of PRMP
element from recreation programs to open
spaces to trails to parks to athletic facilities to
indoor facilities to arts and culture. We will
develop these workshop ideas without critical
evaluations until your participants are satisfied
that all possible ideas have been explored.
Task 2d: Conduct open houses on plan and
implementation options
We will conduct in-person or Zoom and
StoryMap open houses with your public,
nonprofit, and for-profit sponsors, disability,
youth, senior, athletic, environment, arts,
culture advocacy groups, property developers,
and hard to reach or non-participating
populations including pop-up events at special
events, and go-to-presentations to review your
PRMP and impact fee options and
implementation strategies. We will post the
proposals on your website for comments.
Task 2e: Survey voter households
We will mail every one of your 7,348 resident
households using USPS’s Every Door Direct Mail
(EDDM) postcard mailers inviting your residents
to complete an on-line survey in appropriate
languages of your PRMP and park impact fee
development proposals, priorities, projects, and
implementation measures.
The postcards will include a phone number
where they can call to request a hardcopy and
return mailer if they are uncomfortable
completing an on-line survey. The survey will
determine:
§ Their approvals and priorities - for your
art, recreation program, open space, trail, park,
facility, and impact fee proposals.
§ Their financing preferences and priorities
- including methods and amounts of proposed
property and sales tax revenue allocations,
special property tax levies, rate adjustments or
levy lid lifts, general obligation bonds, user fees
and charges, park impact fee amounts,
lease/purchase procurements, joint ventures,
and a possible Metropolitan Park District (MPD).
The results will provide you a valid method of
determining public support for your PRMP and
park impact fee proposals particularly aspects
requiring public financing, joint ventures with
other agencies, and a possible Metropolitan Park
District (MPD) before you finalize your PRMP.
Note – recent advances in the use of call
screening and blocking as well as household
use of cell phones rather than landlines have
rendered traditional telephone sampling
techniques more expensive, less statistically
reliable – and less publicly accepted.
We have found the use of EDDM in promoting
the completion of on-line (with mail-out/mail-
back option for those that prefer) surveys to
be more transparent and representative of
public opinions and accurately predictive of
voters in subsequent funding referendums –
particularly when the entire population is
invited to participate.
4 BECKWITH
We have also found EDDM multilingual
postcards are more effective in directing non-
English speaking households to appropriate
language surveys than was practical with
multilingual phone or mail-out/back surveys.
We can also include graphics and more
detailed content and responses than was
possible with telephone or mail-out/back
surveys.
Deliverables
Documentation of the results of the outreach
surveys of residents, students, and tourists,
workshops with jurisdictions, interest groups,
and property developers, planning charrettes,
open houses including pop-up exhibits, and go-
to-presentations, and the voter household
survey.
3: Update demographics and inventory
Task 3a.1: Update demographic trends
We will analyze your present and projected
population and demographic trends using 2015-
2019 American Community Survey (ACS),
CensusMap, Esri, and Washington State Office of
Financial Management (OFM) source data to
determine your projected resident population
and demographic characteristics by age group
for your 6-20 year planning period.
Map social equities – with GIS identification of
the location of low-income, single-parent
families, non-English speaking populations, and
households paying over 35% of income for
housing that need access to art, parks,
recreation, and social programs and any gaps in
locations and provisions for such services.
Task 3a.2: Update programs
We will inventory art and recreation programs
provided by you and all other public, nonprofit,
and for-profit program providers within your
service area to determine user profiles as well
as program volumes, fees, revenues, and costs.
Task 3a.3: Update facilities
We will update your GIS inventory of facilities
owned, maintained, and scheduled by you and
all other public, nonprofit, and for-profit
agencies including the history, ADA assessment,
physical condition, capabilities, quality,
diversity, amenities, recreation opportunities,
and other relevant features of each property and
facility that has been developed or could be
made available for public use by you or others.
We will identify any surplus or non-functional
properties that could be redeveloped for other
uses.
We will input your facility inventory into
NRPA’s Park Metrics database to access and
compare your programs, facilities, staffing,
maintenance, finance, and other benchmarks
with other similarly sized park agencies and
communities.
Task 3b: Determine maintenance, repair and
replacement (R&R) requirements
We will estimate maintenance requirements and
the remaining life of your existing and proposed
facilities including the maintenance, repair and
replacement (R&R) costs required when a project
is implemented and when your asset’s life has
been expended.
We will estimate requirements necessary for you
to staff in-house resources for different
maintenance levels of service (LOS) and project
in-house staffing and out-sourced contract costs
to complete repair and replacement
requirements as your assets amortize over your
20-year planning period.
Task 3c.1: Project activity demands
We will project your resident and tourist
recreation activity participation, volumes, peak
day, and turnover rates using a combination of
sources including:
§ Washington State RCO Statewide
Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan
(SCORP) – for participation rates, frequency, and
peak day schedule data that we developed for
over 100 outdoor and indoor recreation
activities by age, gender, race/ethnicity, and
income for RCO’s 12-month diary-based SCORP
surveys.
§ National Sporting Goods Association
(NSGA) – for participation rates and data from
2001-2019 for outdoor and indoor recreation
activities by age and gender.
Using these age-specific participation,
frequency, peak day, and turnover rates, we will
project your recreation demand, establish your
BECKWITH 5
existing service or capture rates, project your
unmet or latent demand interest, and define
your recreation needs in 5 year intervals over
your 20-year planning period.
Task 3c.2: Project facility requirements
We will project your facility requirements using
facility carrying capacity models, geographic
information system (GIS) gap analysis, and
RCO’s level of service (LOS) scoring matrix to
determine the impact your geography and 5 and
10-minute walking connectivity has to:
§ Determine your existing level-of-service
(ELOS) investment ratios
§ Determine your distributional LOS or
geographic walkability access or
connectivity gaps – by sidewalk, trail, bike
lane, and transit
§ Propose your level-of-service (PLOS)
objectives
§ Project your land acquisition, facility
design, construction, and other costs
necessary to fill gaps in access and service
Task 3d: Refine ELOS/PLOS Impact Fee
inventory and requirements by zone
Based on the results of Task 1b, we will refine
the existing inventory to reflect art, park,
recreation, and
open space lands
and facilities within
your potential
residential,
employment, and
commercial benefit
zones to include
local or
neighborhood
facilities and
citywide or
community
facilities.
We will express the
inventory as a ratio
based on number
of existing housing
units, employees,
or commercial
square footage or parking stalls in each
residential, employment, or commercial benefit
zone.
We will refine the information in a
spreadsheet format to determine the existing
level-of-service (ELOS) that presently or is
programmed to exist for each facility category
for neighborhood and citywide residential,
employment, and commercial benefit zones
over the next 6-year capital facility program
period.
§ Development standards - we will update
estimates of construction, design, financing,
and other costs required for development of
each type of facility under each type of
improvement standard identified in the
inventory.
We will enter development cost standards into a
spreadsheet format to provide a basis for
estimating the growth impact fees to be charged
for each facility category for each residential,
employment, and commercial benefit zone.
We will create a supply based quantitative-
qualitative methodology to determine and
assess the art, park, recreation, and open space
impacts of future residential, employment, and
commercial development projects in accordance
with the provisions of the Washington State
Growth Management Act (GMA).
§ PLOS methodology - we will refine the
projections of future facility needs by adjusting
the existing level-of-service (ELOS) standards to
compensate for over or under supply conditions
apparent to you, your staff, and PARC.
Our proposed level-of-service (PLOS) standards
will be stated as a facility to population or
housing units, employees, commercial square
footage or parking stalls as a means of adjusting
present supply conditions and forecasting
facility implications.
Task 3e.1: Assess financial prospects
We will analyze your financial prospects to
accomplish your combined 6 and 20-year
administration, art, recreation, maintenance,
R&R, and development requirements for:
§ Present and probable financial trends
§ Supplemental funding allocations
§ Program cost recovery measures
§ Other funding approaches and prospects
including property and sales taxes, park

impact fees, grants, donations, REET,
lodging taxes, levies and levy lid lifts, and
possibly a Metropolitan Park District (MPD).
Task 3e.2: Assess impact fee revenue
potential
We will project the park impact fee revenue to
be generated for neighborhood and citywide
facilities for the residential, employment, and
commercial benefit zones under the fee
mitigation allowed for in the Washington State
Growth Management Act (GMA).
Deliverables
PRMP reports documenting your demographics
projections, social equity maps, program and
facility inventories, maintenance and R&R
requirements, activity demands, facility
requirements, park impact fee potentials, and
financial prospects.
4: Update PRMP
Task 4a: Update goals and strategies
Based on the results of Task 3, we will define:
§ Priorities
§ Role/responsibility assignments
§ Existing and proposed level-of-service
(ELOS/PLOS) standards and geographic
accessibilities
§ Funding and cost recovery strategies to
develop your PRMP and implementation
measures including park impact fees.
Task 4b: Update PRMP elements
Using the results of Tasks 2-3, we will update
holistic 6-20-year PRMP elements for you and all
other public, nonprofit, and for profit programs
and facilities using the following progressive
plan layering approach:
§ Arts and culture elements – that identify
art and historic assets and walks, sculpture
gardens and placements, murals and outdoor
artworks, indoor displays in public facilities, art
classes and workshops, and annual art festivals
and markets for local artists.
§ Recreation programs – that identify
demand and allocate responsibility between you
and other public, nonprofit, and for profit
agencies for environmental stewardship,
childcare and after-school programs, education
classes, health and social services, aquatics,
physical conditioning, and athletic games and
leagues that meet demands and resolve
social equities.
§ Open space, trails, parks, and facility
elements - that identify repair and replacement
(R&R) requirements, ADA disability transition
requirements, geographic access gaps, and
demand/needs requirements for open space and
resource conservancies, resource parks, trails,
athletic parks, indoor recreation facilities,
special uses, placemaking opportunities, and
supporting facilities. We will identify where
innovative use of community gardens, universal
playgrounds, skate spots, pump tracks, sports
courts, rectangular athletic fields,
multigenerational centers, art and historic walks
will increase access, utilization, and economic
development opportunities.
We will composite these overlay elements into a
unified vision to be evaluated by your PARC,
Planning Commission, and City Council.
Task 4c.1: Develop implementation program
We will develop a detailed 6 and 20- year
implementation program to achieve your
proposals including:
§ Art and recreation program cost recovery
strategy – should you decide to program art and
recreation with your resources and/or transfer
programs to other public, nonprofit, or for-
profit agencies where feasible and desirable
including policies on the amount to be
recovered for costs from your program fees and
charges.
§ Operations and maintenance (O&M)
requirements – to maintain existing and
projected open spaces, trails, parks, and
recreation facilities including maintenance LOS
standards and costs.
§ R&R cost containment – defining repair and
replacement and end of useful life costs to be
programmed into your projected budgets.
§ ADA plan – identifying barriers, removal
schedules, and tracking tools to provide access
to your outdoor and indoor facilities.
§ Priority Investment Rating (PIR) 6/20-year
Capital Facilities Program (CFP) – correlating
and prioritizing strategic projects in your
proposed level-of-service (PLOS) park and
facility project acquisition, design,
development, and maintenance costs with
possible funding sources or methods reflecting
the greatest impact on the largest number of
BECKWITH 7
users.
§ Organization – including staff, equipment,
and facilities required to implement your
proposed administration, art, recreation,
maintenance, repairs and renovations, and new
park and facility acquisitions and
developments.
§ Facility financial scenario(s) – using your
property and sales taxes, recreation program
