SUMMARY OF PROPOSAL AND PROCESS The City of Edmonds Department of Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Services is requesting three land use permits in order to implement elements of the adopted Civic Center Playfield Master Plan (Exhibit 1). The proposed location and height of the new fencing around the tennis court near the northwest corner of the site requires two variances while the updated playfield lighting at the soccer field requires a conditional use permit. The conditional use and variance permits require public notice prior to a public hearing and decision by the Hearing Examiner (Type III-B decisions according to Section 20.01.003 of the Edmonds Community Development Code [ECDC]). All three permits were consolidated for review pursuant to ECDC 20.01.002.13. A building permit application to construct park improvements was submitted on December 17, 2019 and is being reviewed concurrently by staff (BLD20191586). Any conditions required by the Hearing Examiner must be reflected in the building permit application, as applicable. II. EXHIBITS 1. Edmonds Civic Center Master Plan 2.

PUBLIC NOTICE A "Notice of Application and Public Hearing" for the land use permits was published in the Herald Newspaper, posted at the subject site, as well as the Public Safety Complex, Community Development Department, and the Library on December 31, 2019 (Exhibit 8). The notice was also mailed to property owners within 300 feet of the site. As of the date of this report, no public comments have been received. Iv. ZONE DISTRICT STANDARDS Since the subject site is zoned Public (P), the development standards in ECDC 16.80 apply. 1. Use. a. Master -planned community parks (subject to the requirements of ECDC 17.100.070) are permitted uses in the P zone. Facilities designed to serve that use such as restrooms, safety lighting, benches, tables, and athletic structures are permitted secondary uses. [ECDC 16.80.010.A & B] b. Playfield lighting and structures over 25 feet in height require a conditional use permit in the P zone. [ECDC 16.80.010.C.3 & C.4] The Parks Department applied for a conditional use permit for playfield lighting height through permit PLN20190059. 2. Minimum setbacks. A minimum landscaped setback of 20 feet shall be maintained from a public street or other property lines, except that a setback of 25 feet shall be maintained for all structures, structured play areas and structured athletic fields from adjacent residentially zoned properties. These setbacks shall be fully landscaped. [ECDC 16.80.030.A] The site is not adjacent to any residentially zoned properties. All proposed improvements will be set back more than the minimum required 20 feet from all property lines except for two sections of tennis court fencing near the northwest corner of the site (Exhibits 3 & 4). Parks has applied for a variance (PLN20190060) to reduce the setback for the fencing from the west property line to 17' 9" and from the north property line to 12' 10". 3. Height. The maximum height of a building in this zone shall be 25 feet, unless a conditional use permit has been obtained, except that the height of schools shall be Edmonds Civic Center Playfield PLN20190058 - 0060 Page 2 of 10 Packet Pg. 4 2.1.a governed by ECDC 17.100.050(l). A conditional use permit for additional height may permit structures up to a maximum height of 60 feet. [ECDC 16.80.030. B] A shade pavilion and restroom building are proposed south of the existing Boys & Girls Club but those elements are less than 25 feet in height. Regarding fencing, the general zoning code in ECDC 17.30.000.0 indicates that unless a variance is first obtained, no fence may be more than six feet in height as measured from the top of the fence to the lowest original grade. The proposed fencing surrounding the tennis court is to be 12 feet tall so Parks has requested the subject height variance in PLN20190058. For the field lights, ECDC 16.80.010.C.4 indicates that structures between 25 feet and 60 feet in height require a conditional use permit (CUP). A total of six 60-foot poles are proposed (Exhibit 5) so conditional use permit approval is requested for those features (PLN20190059). For a conditional use permit in the Public (P) zone, the specific criteria in ECDC 16.80.020 must be considered along with those of ECDC 20.05. The variances must be analyzed against the criteria in ECDC 20.85 — see Sections V and VI of this report for analysis of the conditional use permit and variances. 4. Lot coverage. The maximum lot coverage by buildings and other structures shall not exceed 35 percent unless a conditional use permit has been obtained. [ECDC 16.80.030.C] Per ECDC 21.15.110, coverage means the total ground coverage of all buildings or structures on a site measured from the outside of external walls or supporting members or from a point two and one-half feet in from the outside edge of a cantilevered roof, whichever covers the greatest area. The Civic Center Playfield site is approximately 8 acres, less than 2% of which will be covered by the Boys and Girls Club building and proposed shade pavilion and restroom. 5. Signs. All signs shall be subject to ADB approval. Signs shall be kept to a minimum size, which is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood and uses, while providing adequate visibility. [ECDC 16.80.030.D] All signage shall be erected and maintained in compliance with Chapter20.60 ECDC. [ECDC 17.100.070.D] No signs are proposed at this time. 6. Landscaping. Site landscaping is reviewed against the requirements of ECDC 20.13. [ECDC 16.80.030.E] General site landscaping was approved through the master plan. Specific tree and vegetation species will -be reviewed with the associated -building -permit. Appropriate street trees will be selected for installation along 6th and 7th Avenues consistent with the City's Street Tree Plan. Edmonds Civic Center Playfield PLN20190058 - 0060 Page 3 of 10 Packet Pg. 5 2.1.a 7. Parking. All regional public facilities shall comply with the minimum off-street parking requirements contained in ECDC 17.50.030. a. All on -site parking lots shall be screened from adjacent residential properties with a solid wall or sight -obscuring fence not less than six feet in height. Such walls or fences may be built progressively as the parking facilities are installed. Landscaping shall be installed in accordance with ECDC 20.13.025. b. Regional public facilities shall submit a transportation management plan for approval by the city. The plan shall address the following: traffic control, parking management, mitigation measures for overflow parking into adjoining residential areas, and traffic movement to the nearest arterial street. [ECDC 16.80.030. F] Civic Center Playfield is not a regional public facility as defined in ECDC 21.85.033. However, there are specific requirements for reviewing parking in parks per ECDC 17.100.070. B: 1. All park facilities shall meet any applicable minimum parking requirements set forth in ECDC 17.50.030(C). In the event that no minimum parking requirement is applicable for the particular type of park facility proposed, then the minimum parking requirement shall be determined by a parking study analyzing the parking demands and requirements created by the particular park facility. 2. All on -site parking lots shall be screened from adjacent residential properties in accordance with ECDC 20.13.025 and any additional conditions or requirements imposed pursuant to ADB review as required by Chapter 20.10 ECDC. There are no specific parking requirements for community parks in ECDC 17.50. As a result, a parking study was submitted by the Parks Department (Exhibit 7). The study concludes that the existing 230 or so stalls on nearby streets and in public parking lots are sufficient since the balance of uses at the site is not changing and the timing of uses is typically spread throughout the day. Should the City desire to enter agreements with nearby landowners to use any private off-street parking to support the park use, a joint -use parking permit would be required according to ECDC 20.30 (a condition is proposed). 8. Orientation to Transportation Facilities. All regional public facilities must be located adjacent to or within 500 feet of a principal or major arterial street. [ECDC 16.80.030.G] Civic Center Playfield is not a regional public facility. 9. Transit. All regional public facilities shall be located within 1,500 feet of an existing transit center. At least one on -site transit stop or station shall be required. The Edmonds Civic Center Playfield PLN20190058 - 0060 Page 4 of 10 Packet Pg. 6 2.1.a transit stop or station shall include a turnout of suitable size and location to accommodate public buses. [ECDC 16.80.030.H] Civic Center Playfield is not a regional public facility. 10. Lighting. All exterior lighting shall be arranged and directed so as to direct the light away from adjacent residential uses. [ECDC 16.80.030.1] All exterior lighting shall be arranged and directed so as to direct the light away from adjacent residential uses. [ECDC 17.100.070.C] Low level pedestrian lighting for safety will be located throughout the park. For the field lights, all eight existing 60-foot poles with unshielded metal halide lights will be removed and replaced with six 60-foot poles with shielded LED fixtures (Exhibits 5 & 6). 11. Screening. Electrical substations, water/sewer pump stations, sewage treatment facilities, solid waste facilities, commuter parking lots, and maintenance and storage yards shall be adequately screened from adjacent residential properties with a solid wall or sight -obscuring fence not less than six feet in height. Landscaping shall be provided in accordance with Chapter 20.13 ECDC. [ECDC 16.80.030.J] The park is not one of the listed facilities. V. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT PLN20190059 — Conditional use permit for playfield lighting and structures up to 60 feet tall In addition to the regular conditional use permit criteria in ECDC 20.05, the specific criteria in ECDC 16.80.020 must also be considered. Pursuant to ECDC 20.05.010, a conditional use permit may not be approved unless all of the following findings can be made: A. That the proposed use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan designation for the project area is "Public" within the Downtown/Waterfront Activity Center overlay. Revitalizing the park is an identified goal in the 2016 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan (an adopted element of the Comprehensive Plan): Action Plan Goal 2: Parks and Open Space. D. Acquire Civic Playfield from Edmonds School District, master plan and redevelop it to serve multiple recreation purposes (potentially including events, -large and small community gatherings,- sports, andar_ts). The City recently acquired the space and Council subsequently adopted the Civic Center Playfield Master Plan in 2017 with the intent of updating facilities at the park. Among many elements, playfield lighting was included in the Master Plan. Edmonds Civic Center Playfield PLN20190058 - 0060 Page 5 of 10 Packet Pg. 7 2.1.a B. Zoning Ordinance. That the proposed use, and its location, is consistent with the purposes of the zoning ordinance and the purposes of the zone district in which the use is to be located, and that the proposed use will meet all applicable requirements of the zoning ordinance. The Hearing Examiner must consider the following criteria for conditional use permits in the Public (P) zone in ECDC 16.80.020: A. Impact of the proposal on the visual and aesthetic character of the neighborhood; The existing playfield at the park is lit using eight 60-foot poles with inefficient metal halide lights that spill substantial light off the site. The proposed plan would use six 60-foot poles with efficient LED lights that will be trained down on the field to minimize light spill. B. Orientation of facilities to developed or undeveloped residential areas; The updated soccer field and lights will be in a similar location to the existing field and lights. C. Preservation of natural vegetation and/or other natural features; There is no natural vegetation or other features to protect within the project area. D. Hours of operation; performance standards, conformance of the proposal with the city's noise ordinance; The property performance standards in Chapter 17.60 apply to this parcel as they do with all parcels in the City. ECDC 17.60.030.E pertains specifically to lighting and states: External lights shall be shielded, trained or directed in a manner which minimizes glare onto adjacent property or passing traffic. Any lighting on a sports field or court shall be turned off by an automatically timed mechanism no later than 10:15 p.m. Field or court lighting fixtures shall minimize scattering of light beyond the field or court being illuminated. The park hours will remain dawn to dusk but the soccer field could be rented for use after dark. ECDC 17.60.030.13 requires that sports field lighting must be turned off by an automatic timer no later than 10:15 p.m. (a condition is proposed). As noted previously, the new soccer field will be illuminated using six 60- foot light poles with shielded LED fixtures. Lastly, according to the noise abatement and control standards in Chapter 5.30 of the Edmonds City Code: "Sounds originating from officially sanctioned parades and other events to which the general public Edmonds Civic Center Playfield PLN20190058 - 0060 Page 6 of 10 Packet Pg. 8 2.1.a is solicited to attend without charge and sounds originating from league or school sponsored athletic events" are exempt from the provisions of the noise abatement chapter at all times. [ECC 5.30.100.A.7] E. Ability of the proposal to provide for adequate on -site parking; and traffic impacts of the proposal on the neighborhood. No off-street parking is currently provided at the site and none is proposed. The City Council determined through the master planning process that the park property should be retained as public open space and not allocated to parking. Existing public on- and off-street parking near the site will continue to serve park patrons as noted in Exhibit 7. Traffic impacts will remain similar to existing since the balance and timing of the uses at the park will largely remain the same. C. Not Detrimental. That the use, as approved or conditionally approved, will not be significantly detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare, and to nearby private property or improvements unless the use is a public necessity. Modernizing the facilities at the existing park will not be significantly detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare nor to nearby private property or improvements. The updated lighting would be more efficient and reduce light spill into the surrounding environment compared to current conditions. D. Transferability. The hearing examiner shall determine whether the conditional use permit shall run with the land or shall be personal. If it runs with the land and the hearing examiner finds it in the public interest, the hearing examiner may require that it be recorded in the form of a covenant with the Snohomish County auditor. The Hearing Examiner may also determine whether the conditional use permit may or may not be used by a subsequent user of the same property. The conditional use permit should run with the land. In the unlikely event a different owner/operator assumes control of the park site, the proposed field lights should be allowed to remain and be used by that new group. VI. VARIANCES The Parks Department has applied for two variances related to the relocation of fencing around the tennis court near the northwest corner of the site: PLN20190058 — Variance for tennis court fence height to 12 feet PLN20190060 — Variance for reduced west and north setback for tennis court fence A variance to any requirement in Titles 16 and 17 of the Edmonds Community Development Code (except use and procedural requirements) may be approved when the following findings can be made: Edmonds Civic Center Playfield PLN20190058 - 0060 Page 7 of 10 Packet Pg. 9 2.1.a A. Special Circumstances. That, because of special circumstances relating to the property, the strict enforcement of the zoning ordinance would deprive the owner of use rights and privileges permitted to other properties in the vicinity with the same zoning. 1. Special circumstances include the size, shape, topography, location or surroundings of the property, public necessity as of public structures and uses as set forth in ECDC 17.00.030 and environmental factors such as vegetation, streams, ponds and wildlife habitats. 2. Special circumstances should not be predicated upon any factor personal to the owner such as age or disability, extra expense which may be necessary to comply with the zoning ordinance, the ability to secure a scenic view, the ability to make more profitable use of the property, nor any factor resulting from the action of the owner or any past owner of the same property; B. Special Privilege. That the approval of the variance would not be a grant of special privilege to the property in comparison with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity with the same zoning, C. Comprehensive Plan. That the approval of the variance will be consistent with the comprehensive plan; D. Zoning Ordinance. That the approval of the variance will be consistent with the purposes of the zoning ordinance and the zone district in which the property is located; E. Not Detrimental. That the variance as approved or conditionally approved will not be significantly detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and some zone, F. Minimum Variance. That the approved variance is the minimum necessary to allow the owner the rights enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity with the some zoning. Staff Analysis 1. Special circumstances. According to ECDC 17.00.030, all public structures and uses built or altered by the city or any public agency must comply with the zoning ordinance. However, a variance may be considered where it is a public necessity to build, or alter, a structure or use in a location or in a manner not complying with the ordinance. The height and location of the tennis court fencing was discussed as part of the master planning process. The City Council's adoption of the Civic Center Playfield Master Plan made the planned tennis court improvements public necessities since they are needed to implement the approved vision for the park. 2. Special privilege. The two variances for the tennis court fencing are based on public necessity and would not constitute special privilege. The public tennis court is unique within downtown Edmonds. Edmonds Civic Center Playfield PLN20190058 - 0060 Page 8 of 10 Packet Pg. 10 2.1.a 3. Comprehensive plan. See Section VA.A for discussion regarding the proposal's general consistency with the Comprehensive Plan. Among many elements, tennis court fencing was included in the Master Plan. 4. Zoning ordinance. Without a variance, the maximum height for a fence is 6 feet and it must be set back at least 20 feet from property lines in the Public (P) zone. The proposed fencing would be 12 feet in height and closer than 20 feet to the north and west property lines. Approval of the requested variances would allow 12 foot tall fencing to be located 17' 9" from the west property line and 12' 10" from the north property line. 5. Not detrimental. As can be seen in the photo below, the existing tennis court has tall fences located nearly on the north and west property lines. Neither the height nor location of the proposed fence is detrimental because it moves the fences further into the site reducing the impact at the property lines. 6. Minimum variance. A range of elements and options were considered for the park during the public process that led to the plan that was eventually adopted by City Council. Twelve feet is a typical height for tennis court fencing to keep tennis balls from leaving the court. The height of the fence and its location relative to the north and west property lines is the minimum necessary to implement the tennis court element of the Master Plan. VII. STAFF TECHNICAL COMMENTS In addition to the Planning Division, the City Building and Engineering Divisions reviewed the land use permits along with South County Fire (Exhibit 9). Each reviewer had no comments for the subject permits but noted that additional analysis will occur during Edmonds Civic Center Playfield PLN20190058 - 0060 Page 9 of 10 Packet Pg. 11 2.1.a review of the associated building permit. Compliance with all applicable requirements and standards will be verified through the building permit. Vill. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION Based on the analysis in and the attachments to this report, staff finds the proposal is consistent with the conditional use approval criteria in ECDC 20.05.010 and ECDC 16.80.020, and the variance criteria of ECDC 20.85. Therefore, the Hearing Examiner should APPROVE the conditional use permit (PLN20190059) and variances (PLN20190058 & PLN20190060) associated with the Edmonds Civic Center Playfield project with the following conditions: 1. The tennis court fencing (as seen on Exhibit 4) may be up to 12 feet in height and located a minimum of 17 feet 9 inches from the west property line and 12 feet 10 inches from the north property line. 2. The playfield light poles and fixtures (as seen on Exhibits 5 and 6) may be a maximum 60 feet tall. 3. An automatic timer that turns the field lights off at 10:15 p.m. is required. 4. A joint -use parking permit is required with landowners if private off-street parking is sought to be used for the park in the future. 5. The conditional use permit should run with the land and be transferrable from the City of Edmonds to a subsequent owner/operator of the Civic Center Playfield site. IX.

PLN20190058 - 0060 Packet Pg. 15 INTRODUCTION Civic Center Playfield is an eight acre park in the heart of downtown Edmonds that straddles the boundary between residences, civic amenities and the downtown commercial district. Well -loved and used by residents of all ages, it is home to the Boys and Girls Club, the Petanque Club, athletic fields, a playground, a skatepark, tennis courts and several of Edmonds largest annual festivals such as the Taste of Edmonds and the 4th of July Fireworks. Originally the Edmonds High School sports facility in the 1930's, the site has served as a recreational and event space for decades while the population of Edmonds has continued to grow and develop around it. The City has been operating and maintaining the property for public use since 1975, with no investment of capital funds and little change to the layout since its former use by Edmonds High School. In the 2014 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan (PROS Plan), Civic Center Playfield was identified as a key asset and securing the park, that had been leased from the Edmonds School District for40 years, was deemed a priority. In direct response, the City of Edmonds acquired the property in the fall of 2015 with grant assistance from the Washington State Recreation Conservation Office and the Snohomish Conservation Futures Program, thereby ensuring that the site will remain accessible to the community, providing both passive and active recreation. In April 2016, through a Request For Qualifications and interview process, Walker Macy, a Landscape Architecture and Urban Design firm, was hired bythe Edmonds Parks. Recreation and Cultural Services (EPRCS) department to lead the Civic Center Playfield Master Planning effort. The project goal was to work with the City of Edmonds and the Edmonds community to design a Master Plan that envisions Civic Center Playfield as a signature park in the heart of downtown Edmonds. The project undertook a rigorous public engagement process, including three public open houses, three online open houses, stakeholder interviews and a series of meetings with the Project Advisory Committee, the Parks and Recreation Staff, the City Council and the Planning Board in order to create a plan inspired by the community's desires and reflecting public sentiment and feedback. Several iterations of design and feedback were presented, tested and reviewed, resulting in a schematic design that integrates active program, civic engagement and beautiful landscape spaces. The Civic Center Playfield Master Plan embraces the potential of this downtown park to contribute to a sense of community identity and civic pride while promoting active, healthy lifestyles, energizing the local economy and bolstering the city's growing reputation as a destination on Puget Sound. The legacy of the park as an iconic place for gathering, celebration and enhanced daily life is intended to serve Edmonds for generations to come. 6 Edr*dddtPCi1MG%%ferCPWield Master Plan Packet Pg. 16 - ___-_ -- Sprague St --------'': 1f� - N MEADOWS �.

Prior to recreational development it's believed to have been a marshy field. In 1957 the high school relocated to the Holmes Corner neighborhood at 76th and 212th. The City has operated the property as a park since 1975 with minimal change to its amenities or use. 1930's - courtesy of the Sno-Isle Musem 1950's 2015 - Google La. T ! EXISTING CONDITIONS Today, the eight acre site includes a playground, basketball and tennis courts, football field, soccer fields, track, skate park, petanque courts, portable restrooms, and two structures - the grandstand and the Boys and Girls Club (former high school field house). Civic Center Playfield is currently used for neighborhood recreation, community sports team practices and games by local organizations such as Sno-King Youth Club and EPRCS recreation programs. It also hosts events such as the 4th of July, Taste of Edmonds, Edmonds Arts Festival parking and the Wenatchee Youth Circus. There are two structures on site, the field house, most likely built after 1935 when the district acquired the property, was remodeled in 1999 and is currently leased to the Edmonds Boys and Girls Club. The grandstand, also over 50 years old, is still used on occasion for events and also serves as storage for a number of local organizations. The Edmonds Boys & Girls Club has occupied the field house since 1968. It's currently operating at full capacity, serving approximately 150children. Activities offered atthe Boys&Girls Club include arts and crafts, computer use, homework help, volleyball and basketball, arts and music, snacks and meals. The building presently contains spaces typical in most Club facilities - ground floor offices, a small game/recreation room, computer lab area, restrooms, storage and service spaces. The upper floor, includes a gym and additional storage. The Boys& Girls Club is in conversation with EPRCS and the City to discuss the needs and plans of the organization in conjunction with the park redesign. The field house would likely require expansion if it is to continue to serve the growing needs of the Club. In a City of Edmonds Historic Preservation Commission Special Meeting on June 29, 2016, a majority of the Commissioners "voiced support for retaining the field house structure due to its significance to the community and because it echoes what Edmonds used to look like in the 1920's and 1930's." The Commission also discussed the historic value of the entire site and the importance to the community of "retaining some of it's historic [] flavor" as the park design continues (see Appendix for full HPC Meeting Minutes). The State of Washington Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation recently ruled that the grandstand is not of historic significance and the State of Washington Recreation Conservation Office has approved the removal of the structure. A structural review was also completed during the Master Plan effort with the conclusion that significant upgrades are needed to meet both structural and accessibility compliance (see full grandstand structural evaluation in Appendix). 10 EdnbdddtPCL1VRfi?er0PWleld Master Plan Packet Pg. 19 2.1.a Panorama taken from the playground at the south east corner of the site.

It's urban context, flatness and lack of tree cover set it apart from Yost Park and the Shell Creek corridor, Edmonds Marsh, and Brackett's Landing, all of which are larger in scale and provide important eco-destinations and habitat. City Park offers undulating topography and significant tree canopy resulting in a more passive park experience with some active play area, while the nearby Frances Anderson Center hosts a green space with more intimate neighborhood -scale activity, recreation and gathering. 12 Edr*dddtPCi1MVRfi?erCPWield Master Plan Packet Pg. 21 2.1.a F SITEVIEWS Spectacular views of the Puget Sound and the Olympic mountain range area signature feature of the City of Edmonds. The east edge of Civic Center Playfield offers glimpses of the Olympic peaks due to it's slightly higher elevation and the parks grand, open scale. Also noteworthy are the panoramic views from the streets and residences on the high slopes directly east of the park where the park grounds become foreground.

The east side of the park is single-family residential while the north and south edges of the park consist of more dense multi -unit housing. The west edge is made up of predominantly civic institutions such as the police and fire stations, City Hall and the Edmonds Center for the Arts while also being at the edge of the downtown commercial district. 14 Edribddd!PCIiM8WfieerogWield Master Plan Packet Pg. 23 2.1.a Brackett's Landing Shoreline Sanctuary Amtrak/ LINK Station E L 7. `'010 o`o�k - w m TRANSIT CONNECTIONS INA �� i >� ♦ — Edmonds Center For The Arts 7 � 1 l l� 1 /4 mile l I ? 5-minute walk ; I MAIN ST l Frances IILibrary — I Anderson DAYTON ST „ Center LEGEND w cn 'l —' O BUS STOP w w i EXISTING BIKE ROUTE N PROPOSED BIKE ROUTE FERRY ROUTE O IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII AMTRAK/LINK ROUTE l Civic Center Hayfield is within walking distance of most downtown amenties and a short bike ride for many residents.

As a result, the design process was highly integrated with public engagement opportunities and public feedback shaped both the methods of design as well as the final plan. Stakeholders included the Boys and Girls Club, who currently lease the Field House on -site; recreational groups that use the fields such as Sno-King Youth Club and the Edmonds Petanque Club; groups that host events currently held at the park or nearby such as the Edmonds Chamber of Commerce (Taste of Edmonds), the Edmonds Art Festival and Festival Foundation; and other civic organizations directly effected by the park's potential transformation such as the Edmonds Arts Commission, the Museum/Market Board; City Council and Planning Board members; Edmonds Center for the Arts; Economic Development Commission; Floretum Garden Club; Historic Preservation Commission; and City staff. Community feedback and design team progress was discussed in regular briefings to City Council, the Planning Board, Edmonds Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services, and the Project Advisory Committee. The Project Advisory Committee was comprised of a broad selection of community representatives and leaders with varying interests selected to provide guidance to the project team.

This was also a way to explore the flexibility of different programs to serve a variety of uses, for example plaza space that also serves as performance space or multi -use lawn that can also host events. Additional Outreach Youth from the Student Conservation Association were engaged in an additional outreach event hosted by Edmonds Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services. Park opportunities were discussed and students were encouraged to engage with the model to test their ideas. The twelve students in attendance encouraged prioritizing year-round active uses including games, concessions and a zip line.

The final plan would eventually emerge as a hybrid between these two alternatives, as informed by the community process. Option 1- Meadow Loop The design concept for the Meadow Loop provides a generous landscape buffer on the residential edges of the park and a more civic edge along 6th Avenue, while more intense uses are concentrated in the central multi -use lawn. This option introduces more passive landscape features into the park perimeter, including meadows, berms and stormwater gardens that frame the central active space. This option features jogging and walking paths with exercise stations around a central lawn area large enough to accommodate the same level of soccer usage that occurs now. A wide, promenade -style sidewalk along 6th Avenue allows for strolling or markets and includes a plaza and shade pavilion that could accommodate food concessions, movable tables and chairs, and a small water feature. This scheme also includes a small amount of other recreational program - multi- use courts and petanque- thatflankthecommunityhubsateitherend of the civic edge. Meadow Loop Precedents The following images, from existing parks, are intended to give a sense of the general character of the proposed features.

This option maximizes recreational activities and facilitates spectatorship. It includes a 200-meter track, multi -use lawn for soccer and other sports, and viewing terraces that offer views of both mountains and playfields. Option 2 also includes petanque groves, a skate park, and four multi -use courts around an expanded Field House that could potentially house the Boys and Girls Club or a cafe and restrooms. The north portion of the park is still fairly active but more landscaped in character, and includes a picnic or performance pavilion and multi -generational play and exercise areas. The main path across the park offers a clear connection from the residential neighborhood to the 4th Avenue Arts Corridor and other civic destinations. This path also offers the potential for bringing markets and other events into the park.

These include: • The Taste of Edmonds - an annual festival held in August that utilizes most of the park and hosts a number of vendors, activities and performances. This event generates significant revenue for the Edmonds Chamber of Commerce who would like to see it continue. Conversation with the Edmonds Chamber of Commerce is ongoing and the organization is open to discussion about how the event could evolve with the park, including reviewing inefficiencies with the festival layout and the potential to move vendor parking off -site. • 4th of July Fireworks - during the day, a parade begins at 6th Avenue adjacent to the park. At night, spectators fill the park to watch the fireworks. • Sports tournaments - the Sno-King Youth Club and other organizations sometimes host sports tournaments on the grounds • Arts Festival (parking) -The annual Arts Festival in late June is held at the nearby Frances Anderson Center and the Civic Center Playfield is used by participants for vendor parking and camping. • Wenatchee Youth Circus PARK BOUNDARY 34 Ed ibdddtPCi1MGVfiferOPWield Master Plan Packet Pg. 42 2.1.a Design Alternative Event Overlays Throughout the design process, careful consideration was given to providing flexible use spaces that could accommodate a variety of types and scales of events.

The online version provided the same content in an electronic format. The objective of the session was to encourage dialogue about differing themes and park program elements and to garner community feedback on the direction of design development so that a final hybrid plan could be developed. The following questions were asked as a starting point for in - person feedback and discussion as well as online comments: • Which alternative park plan do you prefer? • Please share your thoughts about Option 1. What do you like or dislike about this option? • Please share your thoughts about Option 2. What do you like or dislike about this option? • Are there park elements not shown in either option that you would like to see? • Additional comments were encouraged.

The plan includes three different zones that each provide a unique experience: "The Meadows", "The Great Lawn" and "The Market Promenade". The Meadows provide both passive and active enjoyment and encourage exploration. This area of the park includes gently rolling hills, meandering paths, and landscaped buffers at all residential edges of the park. Special features include a'/3 mile measured walking/jogging path, playground, skatepark, picnic lawn, youth climbing wall and exercise areas set within planted areas and low berms. The Great Lawn is designed to support soccer in multiple configurations as well as other field sports and casual recreation. Lawn terraces offer mountain views and provide spectator seating forfield events, concerts and festivals alike. Street improvements to 6th Avenue are seamlessly integrated with the park'swestern edgeto provide a generous promenade - style sidewalk for markets, parades and festivals. A multi -use plaza and shade pavilion, with restrooms and storage, provide space for outdoor seating, water play, interactive art, and the potential to host small performances, and civic events. The existing Field House continues to serve the Boys and Girls Club as conversations continue about the potential for expansion or new construction. A 12,000 SF addition to the existing Field House is delineated on the Master Plan as a potential option congruous with the park design. The 6th Street area also includes a range of multi -use recreation spaces: petanque and multi -use courts for tennis, basketball and pickleball. The park is designed to be flexible and accommodates a substantial amount of activity, but will also be beautiful at quieter times. All paths are accessible, and park and sport lighting will be provided throughout. The park is also designed to be economically and environmentally sustainable - multiple locations are identified for stormwater treatment and careful consideration will be given to site conditions and amenities needed to support recreation and event use. The Petanque Grove features six full-size petanque courts to support both the Edmonds Petanque Club and the greater community.

Conversation with the Club is ongoing to determine a short and long term solution that will allow the Boys and Girls Club to remain at Civic Center Playfield and to grow and integrate facilities as the park develops. Two options for potential Club expansion were proposed by the design team and presented at Open House 3 (see page 50, Architectural Elements, for details). Option one, a 12,000 SF extension with possible renovation of the existing field house, is delineated on the preferred site plan. The potential expansion, it's location, scale and relationship to the park and the field house, will be further reviewed and developed in the next phase of design. 44 EdW1dddsP8Wfi&- JWleld Master Plan Packet Pg. 51 2.1.a PREFERRED SITE PLAN i ■ ss Oart & stormwater opportunity io stormwater gardens Otennis/multi-use court (optional outlined) ii field lighting O'Amilejogging&walking path iz petanque grove aO exercise station is shade pavilion, restrooms & storage s0 youth climbing wall is multi -use plaza with water feature or interactive art 0 picnic meadow is Boys and Girls Club or cafe & concessions Oberms ie multi -use court (potential 12,000 SF Boys & Girls Club expansion) 0 playground i7 skatepark Oview terraces ie multi -use playfields Exhibit 1 - PLN20190058 - 0060 Maste Packet Pg. 52 2.1.a MASTER PLAN VIEWS Stormwater Gardens Field Lighting** Multi -use Lawn Sprague Street Playground Connector Youth Meadow Climbing Planting Wall Viewing Terraces 1 /3 mile Berms Picnic Exercise Jogging -Walking Meadow Stations Path ** Number of posts and placement to be determined 46 EdnbdddtPCWMVRfi?erOPWleld Master Plan Packet Pg. 53 2.1.a Multi -use Court Shade Pavilion Plaza, Field House (Potential Boys 6th Ave Market with Restrooms Interactive Art or (Boys & & Girls Club Art Promenade & Storage Water Feature Girls Club) Expansion) Opportunity Petanque Groves Skatepark Stormwater Multi -use Court Gardens Exhibit 1 - PLN20190058 - 0060 Maste Packet Pg. 54 2.1.a MASTER PLAN EVENT OVERLAYS Small to Medium Size Events Within the Park Significant community and stakeholder interest was expressed in hosting more small to medium size events and performances at the park. The 6th Avenue plaza and promenade areas, Petanque grove, picnic meadow, lawn terraces and corresponding playfield were all designed as flexible use spaces that could be ideal for a variety of smaller -scale gatherings, concerts, performances, markets or events. The final park design will also provide distributed utility services for facilitating all scales of event use. 48 EdriWddtPC W V&HeraBWield Master Plan Packet Pg. 55 2.1.a Large Events and the 6th Avenue Market Promenade The park has a long-standing tradition of hosting some of the city's most iconic large events. The new park plan offers a large amount of flexible use space that can accommodate festivals, markets, parades and more. The maximum amount of area for a single large event is outlined below and demonstrates the ability of the park to accommodate key existing program elements for the Taste of Edmonds. Conversations are ongoing with the Edmonds Chamber of Commerce and other stakeholders on the potential reconfiguration of the Taste of Edmonds, the Edmonds Arts Festival and the 4th of July parade and fireworks to best utilize the new park design. Exhibit 1 - PLN20190058 - 0060 Maste Packet Pg. 56 2.1.a ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS Boys and Girls Club Expansion The Boys and Girls Club has been occupying the field house since 1968 and have expressed a preference to remain in the park. However, with the current enrollment of 150 children, they have reached full capacity in the 9,500 SF facility. Typical Boys and Girls Club facilities range from 18-25,000 SF and the Club will need more space if it is to continue to grow. Atthetime ofthe master plan, therewas no formal long-range plan for the Club expansion or relocation but the design team explored Club facility expansion options that could be integrated and/or phased -in with the new design. Owen Richards Architecture (ORA) created conceptual massing studies for two options - a 12,000 SF expansion that creates an entry courtyard adjacent to the existing Field House, and a 20,0000 SF alternative building. Creating integrated indoor/outdoor spaces, a bright new gym and open and inviting volumes that could both complement and offset the Field House were a priority. BOYS & GIRLS CLUB OPTION 1- PREFERRED MASSING STUDY FOR 12,000 SF EXPANSION The proposed building locations and footprints were presented for discussion and feedback at Open House 3 and the consensus was that the larger footprint in option 2 consumed too much of the park. The smaller footprint is shown in the Preferred Master Plan for future discussion as the park design advances. BOYS & GIRLS CLUB OPTION 2 MASSING STUDY FOR 20,000 SF EXPANSION 50 Ednbddd*PCliMVRfi?eraBWleld Master Plan Packet Pg. 57 2.1.a ENLARGED SITE PLAN Shade Pavilion A new shade pavilion and restrooms were strongly supported by the community. The design team was primarily focused on the scale and siting of the structure but also began to explore its potential character and ability to serve as gateway to the park and iconic gathering space. Potential uses include seating area, market cover and other small performance or event use.

HYRRIn F s r- - - rr� I @/Held Master Plan Exhibit 1 - PLN20190058 - 0060 Maste Packet Pg. 60 2.1.a PHASING Potential implementation could be considered in three phases with the flexibility to prioritize these phases in any order depending on alignment with city initiatives and budget. The boundaries of the phasing would shift slightly depending on the order of construction as described below: • Phase A includes the more civic uses of the park up to the back -of -curb along 6th Avenue. This area includes a majority of park's hardscape as well as the architectural features and the Petanque Grove. (Note: if this phase follows Phase C, itis recommended that the park -side portion of the promenade be completed along with 6th Avenue). • Phase B is the heart of the park and involves more site grading and softer landscape features as well as the Sprague Street connection and the sidewalk along 7th Avenue. (Note, if this phase precedes PhoseA it is recommended that the Sprague Street connection be completed oll the way to 6th Avenue). • Phase C represents the 6th Avenue "Market Promenade" from back -of -curb on the park side and includes the pedestrian crossings at Sprague Street and the full right -of way for all edges not along the park. (Note: ifPhose C precedes PhoseA it is recommended that the pork -side portion of the promenade be completed along with the 6th Avenue improvements). 54 Edrib dd�PCR2 V&WeeCPWleld Master Plan Packet Pg. 61 2.1.a SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION Alley Buffers The design team has proposed that the existing 8' chain link fence that surrounds the park be removed. The fence was erected while the property served as school grounds and is in poor condition. Community concerns were raised about buffering between the park interior and the residential alleys to the north and south of the site for safety and security purposes. The design team has advised that dense planting offers a more inviting and attractive condition while still providing effective buffers. The suggested condition below demonstrates a 14' minimum width. City Council voted in favor of replacing the fence with a vegetated buffer.' PROPOSED TYPICAL BUFFER SECTION Planted Berms Utilities and City Planning 8' Jogging 14' Min. 17' Walking Path Planted Buffer Alley New stormwater code is scheduled to be published in January, 2017. Alignment with this plan will happen in the Design Development phase of the Civic Center Playfield. The city is planningto install a new sewer line between 6th and 7th Avenues that would cross Civic Center Playfield from east to west within the old Edmonds Street right-of-way. There is flexibility on the exact location within that zone and the park design will collaborate with the Edmonds Public Works and Utilities department to determine the final locations of any structures and assess other impacts to the park design. Parking Considerations Parking concerns were raised as a discussion point in several of the Civic Center Playfield Master Plan meetings and Open Houses. The consensus of the community was that park property should be retained as public open space and not allocated to parking. The design team has recommended that parallel street parking along 6th and 7th Avenues remain with further study to determine amount and locations for designated ADA and loading access areas. The suggestion of back -in angle parking was made but the design team feels strongly that this causes pedestrian and vehicularsafety concerns as well as negatively impacts the park edge condition. It is highly recommended that the City of Edmonds undertake a city- wide parking study to identify needs and determine options. The design team also recommends that bus transit routes be reviewed to consider a future bus stop at Civic Center Playfield. Tennis / Sports Fencing The adjacent residential community expressed concerns about the high fencing around the tennis courts and the potential to obstruct views. The design team responded with examples of fencing with low visual impacts that was well received. Exhibit 1 - PLN20190058 - 0060 Maste- Packet Pg. 62 2.1.a STREET IMPROVEMENTS 6th Avenue Market Promenade The 6th Avenue/Market Promenade is envisioned as a `Festival Street' that could host special events through temporary closure to vehicular traffic. The proposed right-of-way features a raised roadway that is level with the surrounding sidewalk between Daley and Bell Streets to create a more pedestrian - friendly park edge and entrance. The street would incorporate special paving, flush curbs, street trees, planting and space for market tents and other activities. Additional benefits include: • Providing clear connections between the park, downtown Edmonds and Edmonds Center for the Arts. • Balancing the uses of the street for walking, driving, transit, cycling, emergency services, parking, drop-offs, etc. • Creating an attractive and engaging gateway to the park. • Traffic calming to promote safety of pedestrians and vehicles.

A. That the proposed use is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The existing property is a park and designated as Public. The proposed changes are improvements to the existing park and would not result in changes to land use. B. Zoning Ordinance. That the proposed use, and its location, is consistent with the purposes of the zoning ordinance and the purposes of the zone district in which the use is to be located, and that the proposed use will meet all applicable requirements of the zoning ordinance. The proposed use is consistent with the purposes of the Zoning Ordinance and purposes of the Zone District in which it is located. This property is a park zoned as Public (P). Neighborhood parks are permitted within Zone P. C. Not Detrimental. That the use, as approved or conditionally approved, will not be significantly detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare, and to nearby private property or improvements unless the use is a public necessity. The use should not be detrimental to the public or adjacent properties. The site is currently developed as an athletic field with playfield lighting. All proposed development would improve the existing conditions and occur within the existing developed area. In considering a conditional use permit application under Chapter 20.05 ECDC for the public use (P) zone, the hearing examiner and/or city council shall consider the following: A. Impact of the proposal on the visual and aesthetic character of the neighborhood. The proposed use should not impact the visual and aesthetic character of the neighborhood. The park improvements replace the (8) play field lights with (6) updated playfield lights. The new lights are similar to the existing lights. The new taller poles reduce the angle of spill light and the updated fixtures reduce glare and sky glow, thus lowering the impact on adjacent properties. B. Orientation of facilities to developed or undeveloped residential areas. There is existing lighting on the current location in adjacency to residential properties. The proposed use would be at the same location, but with fewer, more updated lights that reduce light spilling onto neighboring properties. C. Preservation of natural vegetation and/or other natural features. The existing site is developed for athletic uses. The propose use does not change this, nor does it affect any natural vegetation / features. D. Hours of operation; performance standards; conformance of the proposal with the city's noise ordinance. Exhibit 2 - PLN20190058 -0060 Packet Pg. 67 2.1.a Park hours will be dawn to dusk. Noise generated from the site will be similar to existing levels and will conform to the City noise ordinance. E. Ability of the proposal to provide for adequate on -site parking; and traffic impacts of the proposal on the neighborhood. (Ord. 3353 § 8, 20011. The proposed changes are improvements to an existing condition in the park, and will not result in additional parking requirements for the site, nor impact traffic in the surrounding neighborhood. For additional information regarding parking, refer to Parking Study memorandum dated 11/18/2019 on file with City of Edmonds Department of Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Services. Exhibit 2 - PLN20190058 -0060 Packet Pg. 68 2.1.a Setback + Height Variance: Tennis Court Fence Edmonds Civic Center Playfield 11 /18/2019 No variance may be approved unless all of the findings in this section can be made. A. Special Circumstances. That, because of special circumstances relating to the property, the strict enforcement of the zoning ordinance would deprive the owner of use rights and privileges permitted to other properties in the vicinity with the same zoning. Special circumstances include the size, shape, topography, location or surroundings of the property, public necessity as of public structures and uses as set forth in ECDC 17.00.030 and environmental factors such as vegetation, streams, ponds and wildlife habitats. Special circumstances should not be predicated upon any factor personal to the owner such as age or disability, extra expense which may be necessary to comply with the zoning ordinance, the ability to secure a scenic view, the ability to make more profitable use of the property, nor any factor resulting from the action of the owner or any past owner of the same property. The site is an existing park. The proposed park improvements would not dramatically change the existing use of that portion of the site. The proposed fence would be moved farther away from the property line than the current fence location. The existing fence is approximately 10' high. A 12' fence provides a greater level of service to the court users and a higher level of safety to those in the immediate vicinity. B. Special Privilege. That the approval of the variance would not be a grant of special privilege to the property in comparison with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity with the same zoning. The property is a public park, and is therefore zoned Public (P). Other properties in the vicinity with the same zoning include Edmonds Center for the Arts to the northwest; and Fire Station 17, Edmonds Police Department, Edmonds Municipal Court, and Centennial Plaza to the west. These other properties all have structures within the required 25' setback, some of which are greater than 25' high. If the variances are denied, the applying property would be disallowed something that is allowed to other property owners in the vicinity. C. Comprehensive Plan. That the approval of the variance will be consistent with the comprehensive plan. The existing property is a park and designated as Public. The proposed changes are improvements to the existing park and would not result in changes to land use. D. Zoning Ordinance. That the approval of the variance will be consistent with the purposes of the zoning ordinance and the zone district in which the property is located. The proposed use is consistent with the purposes of the Zoning Ordinance and purposes of the Zone District in which it is located. This property is a park zoned as Public (P). Neighborhood parks and facilities designed to support them, including fences, are permitted within Zone P. Exhibit 2 - PLN20190058 -0060 Packet Pg. 69 2.1.a E. Not Detrimental. That the variance as approved or conditionally approved will not be significantly detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and same zone. The proposed variance should not be detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare or injurious to the adjacent properties. The existing fence is less than .5' from the west property line and 3.5' from the north property line. The proposed improvements move the fence back to 17.0' from the west property line and 12.5' from the north property line. Privacy slats will be included on the north end of the fence to screen court activity from adjacent residential properties. Approval of the variances would allow for improved safety for park users and community members in the immediate vicinity. F. Minimum Variance. That the approved variance is the minimum necessary to allow the owner the rights enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity with the same zoning. The existing fence is located within the required 25' setback. Site grading constraints prevent moving the fence any farther than the proposed location while still providing ADA accessibility to the courts. The existing fence is approximately 10' high. The proposed fence is 12' high, the minimum recommended height for safe play on tennis courts. A shorter fence would not adequately protect park users or the community from court activities and would have a negative impact on the court quality of play.

Topic: Parking Study Project: Civic Center Play Field Date: 11/18/2019 Project #: P3282 The following parking study has been completed by the Walker Macy design team. EXISTING PARKING Today, Civic Center Play Field is bordered by two streets with parallel parking on both sides (61n Ave and 71n Ave.) There are 26 parallel parking spaces on the block of 61n Ave that is adjacent to the park. This includes one ADA stall on the park side near the Boys and Girls Club. There are 38 parallel parking spaces along 7th Ave, including four ADA stalls on the park side. See attached exhibit, "Existing Parking Conditions". There is also ample street parking on multiple streets within one minute walk from the park, including Daley, 4m 51n Sprague and Bell. For special events, there are a number of parking lots in the immediate park vicinity that have been used to supplement parking in the past; these lots include the Holy Trinity parking lot (19 spaces), the public lot at Council Chambers (82 spaces), and the Edmonds Center for Arts lots (89 spaces). PARKING NEED RELATIVE TO PARK PROGRAM Parking needs for Civic Center Play Field have been evaluated based on the existing and proposed program elements that will attract visitors. The following chart compares formerly existing park program with proposed park program: Existing Proposed Change in Visitation Boys and Girls Club Boys and Girls Club Same Exhibit i6 6o ` SEATTLE, WA 98101 I PHONE: 206.582.3874 WEB: WALKER V " 0 Packet Pg. 81 2.1.a Civic Center Playfield 11 /8/2019 Page 2 of 3 Grandstand - Much Less Formal running track Informal running path Less 1 adult and 1 youth soccer field 1 adult and 1 youth soccer field Same 1 baseball diamond - Much Less 1 skatepark 1 skatepark Same 4 petanque courts 6 petanque courts Slightly more 2 tennis courts 1 tennis court and 1 multi- use court Same 1 basketball court 1 basketball court Same 1 playground 1 playground Same - Climbing Wall and Exercise Stations Slightly more - Interactive Water Feature More Based on this study, proposed park program will attract significantly fewer numbers of people at concurrent times due to the demolition of the grandstand, the removal of the formal track, and the removal of the baseball diamond. These reductions in use may be offset by people using additional features such as the additional petanque courts, climbing wall and exercise stations, and interactive water feature. However, the added program elements will attract individual visitors at varied times of day as opposed to large groups of people attending organized sporting events at the same time. For this reason we conclude that there is no programmatic need for additional parking at the site. The consensus of the community during the Master Plan phase of the project was also that park property should be retained as public open space and not allocated to parking. Exhibit 7 - PLN20190058 - 0060 Packet Pg. 82 2.1.a Civic Center Playfield 11 /8/2019 Page 3 of 3 DISTRIBUTION OF PARK PROGRAM The proposed park design incorporates new program elements near the 61" Avenue side of the site, so additional parking in this area could be beneficial. The fire department is changing its requirements for clearance on 61", which could allow 8 additional parallel parking spaces to be added alongside the park, bringing the total number of spaces on the 6t" and 7t" park blocks to 72. We recommend that the City provide these spaces as shown on the attached Proposed Parking diagram. ADA PARKING There will be a total of 72 parallel spaces along 6t" and 7t" adjacent to the park, including 5 that are accessible. Extrapolating from the ADA guideline for parking garages, which requires 3 ADA spaces per 51-74 cars, the total number of ADA spaces at Civic Center Playfield already exceeds these guidelines. In order to provide balanced access to both sides of the park, the City may want to remove one ADA space from 7t", and add one ADA space to 6t" as shown on the attached Proposed Parking diagram. The City should also verify that at least one space remains van accessible per ADA guidelines.
