Identifying Kenmore’s natural resources is an important component of the Park, Recreation and Open Space Plan. The natural environment provides habitat for fish and wildlife, enhances water, air and soil quality, and provides areas for passive recreation. Many of the city’s existing parks are located beside or Figure 2.3 Map: CityShoreline/Wetland Areas contain a creek, river, or —I- freshwater shoreline, wetlands or significant forested areas. The City of Kenmore is unique in the abundance of natural systems that weave in and around the city, connecting the different neighborhoods through stream corridors, sensitive areas, and ravines to the Sammamish River and as illustrated in Figure 2.3. These natural elements have defined and continue to affect Kenmore’s community setting. These geographical issues provide both opportunities and constraints for meeting park and recreation demands of the city.

While limited opportunity exists for assembling parcels large enough for use as Community Park land, this is offset by the presence of unique environmentally sensitive areas, which can provide significant Shoreline Master Program Update City of Kenmore wildlife habitat and

L* Community Parks Community Parks usually range in size from 12-30 acres, provide more diverse recreation activities serving a city-wide population. Facilities include, but are not limited to, active recreation such as sports fields, pools, and community centers. Community Parks can also function as Neighborhood Parks because, due to their size, they often contain similar facilities. A Community Park could be smaller than 12 acres, depending upon function. For example, a smaller Community Park could be a civic plaza. Level of service guidelines for Community Parks consider secondary school sites,

Figure 3.3 Photo: Rhododendron Pork although at a reduced contribution rate, and the contribution of St. Edward State Park. The level-of- service standard includes the athletic fields at Bastyr University. The term for the city’s lease agreement with Bastyr University for the use and maintenance for the athletic fields is until December 31, 2020. The agreement provides for the option to extend the agreement upon mutual agreement, provided the request is made in accordance with the lease on or before September 1, 2019.

g e Linear Parks Linear Parks are off-street recreational trails for bicycling, walking and in some instances equestrian use. In Kenmore these park facilities are provided currently by KingCounty (Burke Gilman Trail) and in partnership between the city and Public Utilities for a portion of the Tolt Pipeline trail. These off-street trails are augmented by the network of city sidewalks and designated on-street bike routes to provide key linkages and connections throughout the city and to areas beyond Kenmore’s boundaries. In 2014, phase one of the Tolt Pipeline trail is expected to be complete and will then add approximately .25 miles of contributing miles to the Linear Park inventory.

School Lands School Lands provide partial contribution to available inventory in Kenmore for public recreation. Public School Land in Kenmore is owned and managed by the Northshore School District. Schools make contributions to the Neighborhood and Community Park lands inventory. Their contribution is prorated based upon the availability of after school hours. Contributory rates are described in the Neighborhood and Community Park classifications, and inventory tables (pages 3 and 5). Bastyr University presently contributes to the Community Park land inventory. The following map illustrates the locations of Kenmore Public School Lands.

Regional Parks These parks serve a regional population because of location, size, or unique facilities. They serve users beyond the geographic limits of communities. In Kenmore, St. Edward State Park at 291 acres (Kenmore acres only) is a significant Regional Park. Other notable Regional Park facilities include the Kenmore Boat Launch owned by the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife, and the Burke Gilman Trail (KingCounty). City classified Waterfront Parks also serve as a Regional resource. Regional Parks are not a classification of park facility provided by the city and no inventory table is provided as part of this Plan. Portions of Regional Parks do, however, contribute to park land inventory listed in classifications for Waterfront Parks, Community Parks, and Nature Parks noted previously in this section. Figure 3.14 Photo: St Edward State Park Level of service Guidelines

Overview Level of service guidelines guide the planning for park and recreation services. However, future opportunities and/or unforeseen constraints can affect level of service. Kenmore’s level-of- service guidelines are based upon the community’s unique characteristics, including need for park acreage, need for specific types of parks, and the need for specific park features.and facilities. Level of service guidelines are established on a per capita basis and are compared with population projections in order to determine future demands. The guidelines also acknowledge constraints to achieving certain service levels.

The new level of service guidelines (LOS)reflect the new park classification system. Levels of service projections utilize a 2035 planning horizon for population estimates. Existing Level of Service (ELOS)is defined as the level of service as of the year 2013 on a per 1,000 population basis. The Desired Level of Service (DLOS)is described as the level of service projected and needed for the community the year 2035. The DLOScan be achieved sooner if resources permit. Desired Level of Service can also be exceeded as well as it is a “floor” not a “ceiling” in terms of service delivery.

Many options exist for determining or establishing local park and recreation requirements. Ratio standards used were similar to those methods used by NRPA(National Recreation and Park Association), Recreation Conservation Office (RCO),neighboring cities, and were also used in the 2003 Parks Master Plan. Level of service in most instances is expressed in terms of a ratio of supply (acres), to population (per 1000 persons). The city also utilizes a geographic level of service for Neighborhood Parks to illustrate gaps in service. This recognizes that these parks are intended to be primarily accessed by foot or by bicycle, and as a consequence need to be in

Community Intercept Survey Summary Survey respondents were asked a series of 6 questions. The survey attempted to gauge satisfaction, frequency of visits, determine priorities, and identify facilities or services considered missing related to parks and recreation. Overall satisfaction with parks and recreation services was rated extremely to moderately high in over 85% of responses. Community events such as concerts, walking, dog parks and a pool were identified as the types of activities respondents would most likely participate in. Participation rates in activities in the city were low. Respondents identified Nature Parks, Water Access and Trails as services the city should do more of. LogBoom and Rhododendron Park were the city’s most visited parks.

The survey asked these six questions:

1. Are you satisfied with the parks in the city, neither satisfied, nor dissatisfied with them, or dissatisfied with them?

2. What types of activities would you participate in if they were available in the city?

3. How often do you participate in activities in the city?

4. What would you like the city to do more?

5. Which parks do you visit most often?

6. What parks and recreation services or facilities are missing?

Overall Satisfaction - Improvements Mean 6.45 Std. Deviation 2.67 Kurtosis -0.14

Of the three satisfaction ratings taken (number and variety of parks, quality of parks, and improvements), this variable is consistently the lowest, with a mean of 6.42. 12.7% of respondents gave a low rating of 3 or less, while the high end (rating of 7 to 10) was just under 54%.

Tracking Analysis

Compared to 2006, the only category to drop was the “moderate” ratings level, indicating a general shift away from disinterest or neutrality. This is most likely related to the increase in parks awareness, in that people with little familiarity with a subject are much more likelyto give neutral/ moderate ratings, while people with knowledge of the parks and their facilities are going to have more developed and stronger opinions.

Priorities for Future Land Purchases Concerning future purchases, Kenmore citizens were inquired as to their priority for future parks purchases from a list of five types of land. These options were ranked in order from first priority to last (fifth priority) by each respondent.

AB32 I P a g ______D

First Choice: The top-ranked priorities were chosen as follows:

I2013 22.7% 35.3% 24.9% 9.6% --

Index Type of Land Proportion A Natural Areas for Passive Recreation 22.7% B Combination: Land for Passive and Active Recreation 35.3% C Waterfront Land 24.9% D Neighborhood Parks 9.6% E Corridors for Trails 7.4%

Over a third of respondents gave “a combination of natural areas that can be preserved and used for passive recreation, as well as areas that can be developed for more active use” as their top pick for future parks development and purchases. Waterfront land was a second top pick, at nearly one-quarter support.

One significant inconsistency discovered in this research is that, although walking and biking trails were the top priority for adding or expanding park facilities, it was the lowest priority (only 7.4% picked it first) for future land purchases. The most likely explanation is that people want more trails at current parks, with future parks purchases being dedicated to other types of facilities.

Total Support: To analyze all the rankings as a whole, we used a point evaluation system that assigned each

AB33 P a g e category a number of points based on how highly it was ranked by each respondent, and summed, and evaluated using the following equations:

— 2n)tF,(x))

Where T is the total score for option x (such that E (A, 8 C, D, Ej), n is the ranking value (“first” being 1, “fifth” being 5), and F(x) is the frequency with which option x was ranked “n.” That is — each ranking (first through fifth) is worth an allotment of “points,” ten for each “first” ranking, eight for a “second” ranking, and so on. Then, total points for each category are tallied as T, and percentage of the total number of points (“7,480) is calculated. Total Prioritization for Land Purchases 30.0%

Here, the total prioritization is highly congruent with the top priority by land category, with a Pearson Coefficient of 0.96, with the values being slightly less extreme (mitigated by the above equation). Still,,land that can be kept as passive recreation space (24.9%) has a slight edge over waterfront land (23.2%). Corridors for trails is the lowest overall priority, now carrying 15.6% of the total allotment of points.

Recreational, Cultural, and Special Events

The second set of research objectives in this survey were to evaluate use of and opinions regarding the “recreation” sector of Kenmore Parks and Recreation Department — measuring the popularity of recreational programs, determining primary sources for recreational events, and evaluating community opinion regarding the availability and quality of special events.

Sources of Information The first objective of this section of the research was to identify primary sources of information regarding community events. Respondents were asked to choose from a list the sources from which they obtain information about “recreational, cultural, and special events” in Kenmore.

Note: Totals sum to greater than 100% because multiple responses were allowed.

The primary source of community information for these types of events was overwhelmingly found to be the Kenmore Reporter, a bi-weekly local publication for the Kenmore Area. The Seattle Times was used the least often, listed by only 10.3% of citizens as a source.

Under “other,” the most referenced sources of information were word of mouth, city newsletter! bulletin! circulars, and street banners. The full list of responses is reported verbatim in Appendix D: Sources of Information for Community Events (page 47).

Where T is the total score for option x (such that x (A. B, C, D, E, F)), n is the ranking value (“first” being 1, “sixth” being 6), and F(x) is the frequency with which option x was ranked “n.”

By Gender No significant correlation was found between genders of respondents with respect to any of the research objectives. Results were found to be almost identical between males and females on all objectives, signifying that parks and recreation activities are in no way separated by gender

By Satisfaction The primary variable this research sought to investigate was satisfaction with parks in Kenmore. This was achieved by evaluating satisfaction of several different aspects, as has been described.

To gain further insight into these factors, respondents’ satisfaction ratings were evaluated against their responses to each and every other variable, to identify significant drivers of satisfaction, or other correlations.

AB46 P a g I e Eta squared is a correlation and regression figure that describes causality. An eta squared value of 0.235, for example, indicates that the variable in question is responsible for 23.5% of the satisfaction rating in question.

Linear Discriminant Analysis

A linear discriminant is an analysis method that describes a “dependent” variable as a linear sum of other “independent” variables. It describes a number of factors (the independent variables) as they affect the dependent variable in question. It describes the main factors affecting the outcome of the dependent variable, as well as their respective impacts.

A linear discriminant is of the form: Y = a + 1ax + 2a,x +

Where V is the variable to be measured (dependent variable), which in this case will be overall satisfaction with the quality of Kenmore parks.

Each x1 is an independent variable, one of the factors that affects the overall satisfaction, where n variables are evaluated.

Each a1 is a correlation coefficient describing the level of impact each x value has, on a scale from 0 to 1.

The following table describes the linear discriminant for overall satisfaction with parks quality: ‘Trn[: Rating: Quality of Recreation Programs 0.700 Rating: Recreational Opportunities 0.662 Importance: Restroom Facilities 0.615 Importance: Picnic Facilities 0.566 Rating: Opportunities for Cultural Activities 0.422

This function correctly groups 66.0% of cases for rating of overall satisfaction with quality of city-owned parks in Kenmore.

A baseball facility on par with what Kirkland,Bothell and Woodinville have. A community center with a pool on par with what Kirkland has and Bothell will have and as nice as the ridiculous Kenmore city hall/palace that makes me

Swimming, tennis angry every time i pass it. Swimming (for lap Baseball, soccer, running, swimming) We need a cycling, swimming (I want a higher quantity and quality lap pool) of baseball fields. Youth baseball, softball, soccer Soccer and baseball fields Baseball Don’t know Baseball/Softball Baseball/Softball fields Athletic. Fields, community Sports , youth sports beach Need more quality baseball fields for our NLLLteams.

AB74 I P a g e More athletic fields, primarily baseball. We have to rely on other cities willingness to let our kids play there. Moorlands is a great location, but the fields are terrible, not a park at all. And the baseball fields there and other schools like Sports, for both adults and Arrowhead are barely children jlavable. Better beach/water access for families. We live along this beautiful lake, and it Activities that involved water would be greatto have a access. public beach to play at. Baseball, Tennis, Basketball, sports fields that are up to Walking Trails, Biking, Play, standard and maintained - Picnic, Swimming Finn Hillis a good example. Safe, playable sports fields Baseball, Softball, Soccer, for baseball, soccer, and Lacrosse softball. walking, frisbee, picnics, sports fields, neighborhood sports, soccer parks We need turf fields (2 baseball, 1 soccer), so that our kids can play through Baseball typical Seattle weather. Kenmore needs a baseball/soccer facility. There is not remotely Baseball fields! Soccer enough space for the current Fields! We have to go to activities requiring families to other cities to enjoy their travel quite a distance for facilities as Kenmore has their childrens sporting zero space adopted for activities. childrens activities. More grass and more trees in front of City Farmers Market, Car Show, Hall instead of gravel. Dahlia Festival, Parade, Dog More grass area on The city needs a walking Day (A special day for dogs the North side of City bridge (like Bothell’s) from once a year at one of the Hall instead of the Burke Gilman trail to parks) pavement.

GOAL 14. PROTECT LIFE AND PR OPERTYINAREAS OF NA TURAL HAZARDS.

OBJECTIVE 14.1 Strive to protect lives and public and private property from flooding.

Policy LU-14.1.l Implement the Surface Water Element goals, objectives and policies and the Kenmore Surface Water Management Plan to minimize flood hazards in the community.

Policy LU-14.l.2 Recognize the Swamp Creek basin as an environmentally sensitive area that has sustained repeated flooding impacts. Densities and services should reflect the environmental sensitivity of the Swamp Creek basin.

OBJECTIVE 14.2 Strive to protect slopes from erosion and sliding.

Policy LU-14.2.1 Require land uses permitted in mapped Erosion Hazard Areas to minimize soil disturbance and maximize retention and replacement of native vegetative cover.

Policy LU-14.2.2 Require new development to protect natural vegetation coverage at levels sufficient to moderate surface water runoff and erosion and to protect the integrity of stream channels. When revegetation is required, appropriate native vegetation should be used.

Policy LU-14.2.3 Require grading and construction activities to be conducted with erosion control Best Management Practices and other de’ielopment controls as necessary to reduce sediment discharge from construction sites to minimal levels.

Policy LU-14.2.4 Require increased surface water requirements in areas draining over steep and erosive slopes. (see SW-42.3.])

Policy LU-14.2.5 Limit development on slopes with a grade of 40 percent or more to be developed unless the risks and adverse impacts associated with such development can be reduced to a non-significant level.

Policy LU-14.2.6 Limit development in Landslide Hazard Areas unless the risks and adverse impacts associated with such development can be reduced to a non-significant level.

OBJECTIVE 14.3 Minimize the potential for damage due to liquefaction and seismic hazards.

Policy LU-14.3.1 In areas with severe seismic hazards, apply Uniform Building Code, and any other necessary special building design and construction measures to minimize the risk of structural damage, fire and injury to occupants and to prevent post- seismic collapse.

GOAL 15. PROTECT AND ENHANCE UNIQUE, VALUABLE, AND CRITICAL PLANTS AND WILDLIFE.

OBJECTIVE 15.1 Protect wetlands from encroachment and degradation, and encourage wetland restoration.

Sub-Element 4D-25 5) O4QNatEnv_Sub_AmendO6- after Ap C.doc AmendedDecember2006 Natural Environment City of Kenmore Final Comprehensive Plan

Policy LU-15.i.l Determine wetland boundaries using the procedures provided in the following manual: Washington State Wetlands Identification and Delineation Manual, Washington State Department of Ecology, March 1997, Ecology Publication #96-94 or the scientifically accepted replacement methodology based on better technical criteria and field indicators.

Policy LU-i 5.1.2 Provide a classification system for wetlands that allows for the designation of both regionally and locally unique wetlands.

Policy LU-15.l.3 Strive to achieve no-net-loss of wetland functions or values within each drainage basin. Acquisition, enhancement, regulations, and incentive programs may be used independently or in combination with one another to protect and enhance wetlands functions.

Policy LU-15.l .4 Require development adjacent to wetlands to be sited such that wetland functions are protected, an adequate buffer around the wetlands is provided, and significant adverse impacts to wetlands are prevented.

Policy LU-15.1.5 Protect areas of native vegetation that connect wetland systems. Whenever effective, incentive programs such as buffer averaging, density credit transfers, or appropriate non-regulatory mechanisms should be used.

Policy LU-15.I.6 Protect the unique hydrologic cycles, soil and water chemistries, and vegetation communities of bogs, fens and other legislatively designated unique through the use of Best Management Practices to control and/or treat stormwater within the wetland watershed.

Policy LU-15.1.7 Allow public access to wetlands for scientific, recreational use, and traditional cultural use where public access trails are carefully sited, sensitive habitats and species are protected, and hydrologic continuity is maintained.

Policy LU-15.l .8 Allow enhancement or restoration of degraded wetlands to maintain or improve wetland functions, provided that all wetland functions are evaluated in a wetland management plan, and adequate monitoring, code enforcement and evaluation is provided and assured by responsible parties. Restoration or enhancement must result in a net improvement to the functions of the wetland system. Technical assistance to small property owners should be considered.

Policy LU-15.1.9 Alterations to wetlands may be allowed, only after all wetland functions are evaluated, the least harmful and reasonable alternatives are identified, and affected significant functions are appropriately mitigated, in order to:

a. Accomplish a public agency or utility development;

b. Provide necessary utility and road crossings;

c. Maintain and improve a wetland; or,

d. Avoid a denial of all reasonable use of the property.

Policy LU-I 5.1.10 Approve wetland mitigation proposals if they would result in improved overall wetland functions within a drainage basin. All wetland functions should be

in B OBJECTIVE 10.4 Maintain and enhance view corridors to Lake Washington and the Sammamish River.

‘PolicyLU-lO.4.l Identify important public view corridors to Lake Washington and the Samrnamish River. Existing views are illustrated on Figure LU1O.5a. Methods to retain existing views include, but are not limited to:

• Retain existing views currently in areas of public ownership, such as on City- owned lands. View corridors and pedestrian linkages can be used to form a skeleton of open spaces surrounded by buildings of future development plans for those areas.

• Retain view corridors in existing road rights of way, recreational areas and regional trail corridors such as Tracy Owen Station at Log Boom Park, Rhododendron Park, the Burke-Gilman Trail, SR-522. and along th68 Avenue NE, by requiring adjacent new developments toprovide visual access.

Policy LU-lO.4.2 Evaluate alternative development regulations and tools to maintain and enhance public view corridors to Lake Washington and the Sammamish River. Existing and potential views to be preserved or enhanced are illustrated in Figure LU 10.5b. Methods to maintain and enhance view corridors include, but are not limited to:

• Create potential for view corridors in master planned areas by requiring them in the design and permitting of private property development proposals.

• Require future Downtown master plans to exploit potential water views through design and development regulations such as design guidelines. These design and development regulations would address massing of buildings, percent of width, building heights, setbacks, signage, and scale of the built and pedestrian environment. 75 • Address potential interference in visual access such as the NE 1th Street pedestrian bridge connection over SR-522 in Downtown through appropriate design. ,&flM4 1:IA&W LAq 2 L1W- ;ç.. \JLW’I’ -r&(L ;ep LE4c VIuAL Ls1&’$I Not f 2 I 4 only This Source: measurement.
