Mayor Members o the City Council Members o the Board of Park Commissioners Citizens o Renton On behalf of the Department of Parks and Recreation, I am pleased to submit for your review an adoption the Maplewood Golf Course Master Remodeling Plan. The plan is the result of a seven-month planning process which included considerable deliberation by City staff and embers of the golfing community. Assisting taff in this assignment was John Steidel. John has been working as a registered golf co,urs architect for over ten years. His experience and knowledge of the game of golf was invaluable. Also assisting was the civil engineering firm of C. H. Kuhn & Associate I who prepared both the Drainage Study and Irrigation System Evaluation. _ I The Plan as several objectives, but the primary goal is to provide the mechanism to make Maplewood as good a golf course as possible. Future improvements will be based upon a sound Mater plan which will ensure that changes aren't made on the whim of any one individual or small group. A decision was made early in the plannin g p g process to prepare two master remodeling plans -- one (Plan A) for the course as it now exists and one (Plan B) showing expansion of the course, eastward onto undeveloped property owned by King County. The plan contains specific nformation including recommendations on course layouts, costs. phasing schedules. funding options, revenue projections, and action programs which enable the City to proceed with either of the two scenarios. After !considerable review, it is this department's recommendation that the City adopt Plan B. Ian B creates a course which will be attractive and challenging to golfers of all abilities. Plan B also supplies the City with the greatest potential revenue possible and provides he space needed to: •� liminate present less than desirable conditions with regard to narrow airways. • Lengthen the course thereby attracting an estimated 23.000 additional rounds per year. I I I i 1 I I 1 - 2 - i • Construct a new centrally located clubhouse campus which should attract a substantial commitment of private funding. The new clubhouse in concert with the improved course will provide a great asset for our r community and will complement the economic development efforts I . contemplated in the Cedar River Strategy. • Construct a driving range which will provide a very reliable• and su stantial revenue generator. Initial con act with King County regarding the potential transfer of the identified property as been encouraging. Following adoption of Plan B. the City should immediate y send correspondence to King County government requesting the transfer. As you,ar all aware. I feel that Renton's park system is without equal. We should all take pride) in .our accomplishments over the past several years including purchasing Maplewood. We look forward to continuing progress. Sincerely. E._ v3 4.34-CLia., ohn E J W:bley Director o Parks and Recreation - I I • - i I I MPLEWOOD GOLF COURSE MASTER REMODELING PLAN tifriop !

This action was based upon the desire (shown by Council during the acquisition phase) to make Maple world as good a course as possible. It was felt that if the City was to embark on a seriesllof Improvements it only made sense that these be based upon a sound master plant III In early 1985 staff defined the following Master Remodeling Plan objectives: I I • Identify existing and potential problems in surface and subsurface water and lI l propose solutions for abatement. • Identify problems and proposed solutions for improvement of playing surfaces including tees and greens. • Identify design changes to holes to increase the degree of challenge offered „II to users and improve overall safety for users. • Identify other desirable amenities to improve the course aesthetics a1 d 'I playability. I In -ddition. the Master Remodeling Plan was intended to show the potential and feasibilityl of expanding the course across the Cedar River to land owned by King County. This property. 95 acres in size. is undeveloped and is intended to be utilized for some type ri - of recreation. Preliminary contacts with King County officials had been positive with 1I I regard to ossibly utilizing a portion of the property for expansion of the course. An important goal. therefore. of the Master Remodeling Plan was to help facilitate acquisition of a portion of the King County owned property to allow for lengthening of the '1 I course.,, Duri g this process. it became evident that a Golf Course Architect needed to be hired tot asist staff in completing the plan. Golf course design and layout has become al very special ized field with only a handful of design groups having extensive experience. It The propos d design program also contained both civil engineering services. soil analysis. and irrigation system evaluation and design. In response to City policy. a consultant selection process was initiated. Mayor Barbara l Y. IShinpoch appointed a committee consisting of Mike Parness - Assistant to the Mayor. John Webley - Parks and Recreation Director. Ron Regis - Chairman of Board of i Park Comm1ssioners. and Jim Pitman - Maplewood Greenkeeper Foreman to select the consultant. II To a ,sist the Committee in making the selection. an information packet "Request for Letters of Interest" was prepared which outlined the project and selection process. - This packet was then mailed to numerous Golf Course Architects recognized by the National,1Go f Foundation and located on the west coast. A July 19th submittal deadline was establisI e . d II 1 - 1 - Ali - I , Letters of interest outlining qualifications and experience were received from five individua1s or firms. Based upon pre-established criteria. the selection commititee independently reviewed the information and scored each based upon history of firm. previous experience. qualifications. references and location of firm. Based upon a composit ranking of each score. the committee elected to interview the top two ranking I firms)"I-- (William G. Teufel and Associates of Bothell. Washington. and John Steidel. Golf Course Architect. of Kennewick. Washington. Or 1 interviews with the finalists were held on August 8. 1985. Committee members rated and scored each of the finalists and recommended John Steidel for the assign'Ment. This choice was then approved by Mayor Shinpoch and the Board of Park Commissioners. During the months of September and October. a contract was negotiated which 11 outlined t� sks to be completed. At this time. it was decided that two schematic plans would be completed -- one (Plan A) for the course as it now exists and one (Plan IB) showing expansion of the course eastward onto the King County owned property. 'With execution of the contract documents in early November. staff and Mr. Steidel conducted an extensive site analysis which noted the physical characteristics of the course.' These were noted in the form of a graphic site analysis. At the same time.I a topographibal plan (based upon aerial photographs) was obtained which serves as the base map for all future plans for the course. Und r the direction of Mr. Steidel. C. H. Kuhn and Associates Civil and Irrigation Engineers onducted both a preliminary drainage investigation of present course drainage and an 'eva uation of the existing irrigation system. These reports were then compiled in written'for and reviewed by'staff. Foll wing site analysis and initial investigation of the drainage and irrigation systems,. the two schematic plans were completed. These incorporated recommended drainage and irrigation improvements and rerouting holes for safety purposes. It was decided;')that Plan B should include construction of a driving range and new clubhouse (both in central locations). Duri I g the schematic design process. the following design goals were established: ' p Increase challenge and improve playability of course. To accommodate a greater number of golfers with safety. 1 Construct grass tees -- minimum 5.000 square feet on Par 4's or S's and I I 7.500 square feet on Par 3's. - 2 - 1 � I I ii i I , I I • Expand or reconstruct greens to provide minimum 5.000 square feet. • Practice facilities to be improved if at all possible. • Cart paths to be constructed from at least greens to tees. Provide paved areas for tee mats adjacent to tees. Staff and Mr. Steidel presented the plans to interested citizens on February !19. 1986 I;at Ian open forum at Maplewood Clubhouse. Comments and suggestions were received from the fifty persons in attendance. Again plans were modified to reflect tiis input. 'In ddition. detailed cost estimates for each plan were completed. Pr liminary plans and cost estimates for both Plan A and Plan B were presented to the City Council on March 13. 1986. Discussion on the merits of both plans occurred and it was decided that additional review would occur in May. 1Duiing April and May rendered schematic plans were completed along with the test included in this document. Additionally. staff presented Plan B to King County Park Department officials. Response and interest in the plan was very favorable. I I • III !

It it located on Maple Valley Highway (SR-169) approximately 2 miles east of I-405 on'j the) extreme eastern edge of the City of Renton. It was purchased by the City of Renton !in February 1985. The City's Parks and Recreation Department operates the course. 'It _Tnaintains the course under the direction of Golf Course Superintendent. Jinn Pitman.! T e City leases the clubhouse facilities to Charlie Stewart who. with his Golf Professional. Ken Lawrence, operates the course for the City on a day-to-day basis. The course was constructed on the site of a dairy farm in 1927. The course has had but a few wners. The last owners prior to the City of Renton's purchase of the course were Mapl wood Golf and Country Club. The City is just beginning its second season of operation. The present course occupies less than 100 acres of the 145 acre site. the remaining area being very steep. The present course has a length of 5.082 yards and plays to a par of 68 for men and 71 for ladies. The present front nine holes lie west of the entry road and clubhouse with three holes having predominantly an east-west orientation. The back nine holes are mostly east of the clubhouse and entry road and have predominantly a north-south orientation. 11 IliThe present scorecard lists a length of 5.625 yards. although when the course was measured in 1984 by the PNGA it was found to be 543 yards shorter. The course is somewhat wet during the rainy months of the year which does make the course play somewhat longer. However. in the summer months of the year. deficiencies in the irrigation contribute to make the course play shorter. Course maintenance is comparable to that of other city-operated golf courses in Western Washington. although reportedly course maintenance has improved since the City has taken over its operation., • [i Th greens are small in size and are not of sufficient area considering both the length' of the approach shot and the amount of play they receive. The green surfaces are predomin ntly poa annua with some bentgrass. a mixture which is capable of providing a • good abutting surface in the area. The greens are constructed primarily of native soil which!in many instances does not drain well. The existing Maplewood Golf Course has extremely few and limited grass tees. Instead. each hole plays from. a tee mat all year long. At present there are 19 land bunkers n the course. Most bunkers are near the greens and they are for the most part well icconstructed and designed. The sand is a local grey sand which is common to many golf courses in the area. -- i - 6 - r � I -Inc! water supply is discussed in greater detail in the Irrigation Study which is included;in this document. The water source is primarily the creek which flows across the course and lays as a water hazard on existing holes #3 and CB. The Cedar River also' borders the eft side of #16 fairway, though it is considerably lower than the fairway. T,a ractice Putting Green is located adjacent to the clubhouse. There is no Practice; Area or Driving Range. The golf professional does use the open area left of existing I1 fai:way #10 to give lessons. Because the area is limited, he often uses the "Cayman Ba111" which doesn't travel as far as a regular ball. The fairways on the course are relatively narrow and very close together. Recently, to try to encourage golfers to play with greater accuracy, the Golf Course Superintendent has started mowing the fairway with a triplex mower and has made them even narrower. Rough, however, is not particularly long or difficult. There are a number of trees, both evergreen and deciduous, on the course. There are a large number of mature maple trees left of holes #4 and #17; hence the name of the course.l,i The course is bordered on the north by a wooded hillside of mostly fir, alder and maples The course has a clubhouse that has been recently renovated by the operator and by the City. The clubhouse has a pro shop, restaurant, and lounge. Behind and above the clubhouse is a limited paved parking area. Overflow parking spills onto a gravel road leading to the maintenance area located between existing holes #10 and #11. The hi clubhouse is served by an asphalt entry road that crosses existing holes #3 and #8. ii III I � 1, II it II i I I l - 7 - 1 3 ,uker . �7 v EXISTING CONDITIONS 1 1 Mai plewood Golf Course. although it has some obvious deficiencies and has not been improved in a number of years. is already a fairly popular place to play golf and receives relatively h avy play. The course received just over 52,000 rounds last year. the first year of II thei City's operation. This was an increase in play of 15.5 percent over the previous three year average. The golfers enjoy a fairly attractive course that is relatively easy to iwaik and is not overly difficult. However. the primary reason for the current level of play is the location of the course and relative lack of comparable public golf facilities in the area. the course is well located on the Maple Valley Highway. easily accessible from I-405. It s rves not only the golfing citizens of Renton but also serves (or should serve) public gblf rs throughout southern King County. the text of the Irrigation System Evaluation and Drainage Report. both prepared by C. H. Kuhn & Associates. are included as part of this document. Improvement of the irrigation system alone and correction of larger drainage problems will result in significant improvement to the existing layout. The Irrigation System Evaluation points out that the present system cannot put enough;'1 water on the course often enough to keep it green and in good playing condition during jthe summer months. Because it is not automated, it is also impossible to keep from overwatering some areas. while at the same time, underwatering others. Both detract from the overall condition and quality of the course. 'Thel Drainage Study suggests that there is no overall cause of drainage problems on the cours€. In fact, drainage on Maplewood is better than on many Western Washington golf courses. Nevertheless. areas can be drained to improve playing conditions and reduce damage to the course during periods of wet weather. Th City has just recently purchased and begun operating the golf course. The City realizes that it cannot continue to let the course deteriorate. The City, instead. wants the course to be improved so that it can provide good playing conditions and a challenging golf eau ' e that will be used by a greater number of golfers. This Master Planning process is intend IId to point out improvements that should be made as funds become available. TNe first task of the Master Plan was to become familiar with the course and prepare Site Analysis. This required several trips around the course and meetings with course mild City staff. The Site Analysis noted several serious problems and a number of 4 i areas, where the course was deficient that would become more apparent if the course was more heavily played. i I — S — r o I I ' Th primary existing problem with the course is one of potential safety, both with respect to golfers on the course and people and property off the course. Fairways #1, #2, #4, #5;, #6 and #9, #3 and #18. and #13 and #14 are all too close together. There are also any number of teeing areas that are too close to greens. Screens that have been put up in the past year help, but there are a number of potentially uns fe H places for a golfer to be on the course. Obviously, a greater number of golfers on the course increases the chance for errant balls to land in adjacent fairways. I Fairways #4 and #8 are also located close to the Maple Valley Highway and residence respectfully. This is evidenced on hole #4 by the number of claims from motorists the City has received for damage since it took over operation of the course. The number of balls that go over the fence into residences left of hole #8 is also a problem. The second major problem has to do with operation and the layout. The present course is too short to attract better golfers at 5.000 yards. Individual holes are also of substandard length of the par they have been assigned. That this occurs can be seen in the relative lick of lower handicap golfers on the club roster. This fact also somewhat shows up in tha a large number of rounds at Maplewood are nine-hole rounds. Some of this is due to a strong league golf program. but the high number also indicates that course use is primarily by higher handicap golfers. The consequence of this is two-fold. The first is that better golfers who tend to be younger end have more money to spend are going elsewhere to spend their golfing money. The second is that visitors staying at Renton hotels and motels are not likely to golf in Renton because of the image of Maplewood as being "substandard" or "less than regulation" regardless of how well the course is maintained. It is also believed tihat Renton even loses some convention business because they cannot offer an attractive II enough golf facility for tournament play. T e problems of safety and lack of length can only be improved to an extent on the existing ite. The Renton, Parks and Recreation Department has been aware of these problems and limitations and for these reasons requested that the Master Remodeling Plan consider not only improvements on the present site but also utilize additional acreage owned b King County across the Cedar River from existing hole #16. There are, howel,er, other areas of the course which also could use improvement and attention. The substandard size of #8 green. the subsurface of greens #7 and #18 and the lack of length of hole 1 3 are the major problems on the course that should be addressed early on in golf course improvement. - 9 - I I I I� The existing greens are poa annua on a base of native soil. During the summer months., they provide acceptable putting surfaces. The base of native soil is slow drainihIg which makes the greens virtually unplayable in winter and bumpy during spring and fall when the course is wet. The average green surface area is only 4.500 square feet. For these greens to accommodate increased play. their area must be increased by at least one third. the poa annua is not a problem in the Puget Sound area. but under several green surfaces the soil is so poor that it must be replaced. Tee mats are used almost year round on almost all holes. Grass tees are few and of ! inadequate size. The reliance on tee mats and absence of grass tees is a real negative influence on the image and quality of the course because the ground around them is either mud or bare dirt. Because there is usually only one tee mat. golfers of all abilities tee off from the same place offering an inappropriate challenge to many and lack of variety to all. Construction of grass tees of sufficient size with three distinct positions is a high prioritr. Tee mats should only be used during the winter when grass is not actively growing and damage is likely to occur. 1Th design of greens and bunkers is remarkable. The bunkers are filled with a local grey colored sand that yields fair playing conditions but is not particularly attractive. The use f a white sand in the traps would greatly enhance the quality of the court e. Most traps are around the greens. Fairway traps are few and this is proper because of the I� I proximity of the fairways. It is not appropriate to mishit a shot on one fairway and find your ball in a hazard on another. Still. the total number of traps is about half of which is generally recommended on a 6,000 yard regulation public course. II As previously mentioned, the City has only recently purchased the course. The Golf bourse Superintendent has been on the job less than a year but from all reports maintenance has been improved. The mowing of the fairways with a triplex mower has improved their appearance and quality. Many problem areas have been addressed. li The i City is in the process of finding out the number of persons and proper equipme t t needs to maintain the course properly. They are aware that the maintenance build.11 ing eeds improvement and that the area around it needs expansion. Purchase of 11 sufficient equipment will be a continual process. and an equipment replacement program ir mustllbe implemented. One of the traps municipal golf courses get into in operating their course i paying too many people too much money for course maintenance. It is important to have he proper number of people at the right time. During the growing season. a 6.000 yard[course could efficiently employ 6-10 persons, though half that number is appropriate in the winter. Ij - 10 - The trees on the course are actually fairly sparse and do not cause to any great extent' tile shade problems so prevalent on most courses in Western Washington. Additional tree planting to reduce safety problems is actually desired. and some tree planting t separate fairways has been done recently. There is one practice putting green. though it is not large enough and large fir trees reduIce its usable area. A real negative factor for the course is the lack of a PractiiCe Jkrea or Driving Range. This is bad for golfers because they have no place to • practice dr warm up before a round. This is bad for the Golf Professional because he has no place to give lessons. It is also bad for the City because it will make additional revenue. specially considering the location with relation to the many golfers who travel to work it Renton every day who would probably utilize.the facility if they had one at this location. Present golf cart use is not great. but it is significant. The golf professional reports that he rents his entire fleet of eleven carts twice a day on the weekend, which indicates he needs more carts. There are also golfers who trailer their own private carts to the c urse. If the course is improved or expanded. it will become very desirable to install g if cart paths at least from green to tee and eventually the full length of the course. 7uch a system will encourage golf cart use increasing income. It will also increase play during wet periods while reducing turf damage. Asphalt cart paths are expensiv� initially but they will pay for themselves in a relatively short time. Th'e clubhouse is adequate for the needs of the present number of golfers, though its parkirg area is not. The clubhouse has been recently improved. but if the course is to be exDanlded it will no longer be centrally located nor is it adjacent to Maple Valley Highway. II For a variety of reasons. if the course is expanded. it makes sense to relocate !the clubhouse to a location in #17 fairway where the entry will be at a planned intersection of the prop sed expansion of Maple Valley Highway. T h'e less than desirable relationship of the entrance road near the railroad trestle n will be eliminated. Two holes will no longer be bisected by the entry road or the creek if it can be relocated. The most compelling reason to relocate the clubhouse is to allow for • expansion to meet the needs of a greater number of golfers. The new clubhouse facility could) be larger with meeting and banquet rooms and perhaps a restaurant with increased capabilities. Such a facility would also be more attractive to tournaments. - 11 - i rI The majority of this evaluation has been devoted to problems and deficiencies that are apparent to us on this course. Because it is already popular, it also obviously has a number of positive characteristics. However. if course improvement for everyone is the primary o jective of Master Planning. deficiencies must be noted so that improvements can be;lsughested. 1,1 'I I 'I I II it I ' I II it I 'I I I �I I - • I I �I I • it I - 12 - 1 4 ukfer 4' litilHAMislibtiollir::°t; . 47 r GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS I ' _ I To achieve the goal of making Maplewood Golf Course more interesting and enjoyable for golfers of all abilities, it is recommended that a number of improvements be made in conjunction with improvements recommended in the Drainage Investigation Report and Irrigation System Evaluation, either as a whole or in phases. GREENS Mos green surfaces are of fair quality during optimum growing conditions. Being constructed of natural soil, they tend to be wet during the winter and spring and somewhat firm in summer and fall. The average size is now 4,500 square feet and they are predominantly poa annua or annual bluegrass. If the golf course is going to improve to accommodate a greater number of golfers, it is recommended that each green be reconstructed to provide a surface area between 5.000 to 7.000 square feet. These greens Li shall be constructed upon a carefully selected sand base with subsurface drainage and seeded with Penncross Creeping Bentgrass. These properly constructed and sized greens will provide better conditions under increased play during both wet and dry conditions. TEES � I If the City is going to provide golfers with the best golfing conditions. it must construct grass tees on each hole to be used during the major part of the golfing year. Each hol shall have a "tee group." consisting of three tee positions (though not necessarily three separate tees) where each tee group on par 4's and par 5's provides let least E,00p square feet of usable tee surface and each tee group on par 3's will provide a minimum of 9,000 square feet. The white tee is for regular men's play and should comprise 60% of the total tee area. IIt iIs the largest portion of the tee since it must accommodate the vast majority of golfers and the larger size will allow for more variety in daily play. The blue tee is for men's,tournament play and for low handicap golfers who desire to play a longer course. The red tee is provided for play by ladies and they provide a course approximately 90% the length of the regular men's course from the white tees. I' In most instances we have attempted, when we recommend improvements,1 to create a situation where the course can be maintained for a moderate cost. To create and maintain separate and additional tee space will cost more, but we feel that in this instance the results are worth it. SAND BUNKERS It is necessary that sand bunkers be included in the design of the course to provide challeng , interest and to aid in defining greens and landing areas. The total number of - 13 - I; 1 I l bunkers ,has been increased from 17 to 31 (Plan A) or 37 (Plan B). The new total is slightly lower than average for new courses of this type due to the small amount of rough between some fairwlys. Some existing bunkers have been closed. Some existing bunkers are to be slightly reconstructed for better visibility and playability. Drainage should be installed in all new and reconstructed bunkers. The existing grey colored sand should be replaced with a white lsand that would improve the appearance of the course. l WATERIHAZARDS At present there is only one water hazard on the course (a small creek) whichl comes into play on the third and eighteenth holes. Most golfers feel that properly placed _ and constr cted water hazards improve a golf course as a whole. They add beauty. challenge nd interest. Water hazards usually have other benefits. They often serve as irrigation reservoirs and the dirt excavated from them is used for golf course construction 11 and remodeling projects. Two or three lakes and ponds will be constructed. It is also 11 possible that the existing creek will be re-routed through the course passing from pond to II pond tb the Cedar River. This re-routing would be in conjunction with the State 11 Department of Fisheries. This expanded water hazard would come into play on several holes and e attractive. FAIRWAY OUTLINES 1 Schematic fairway outlines are shown and they represent the Golf Course Architect's concept of strategic contour mowing. This involves mowing the fairway with the sides Curving rather than straight. narrowing the landing areas for better golfers wind widening (them for the rest. .The curved lines of the fairway also reflect the natural topogr'aph as well as existing trees and other natural features. The result is pleasing to I the eye and usually results in less area of fairway being maintained and is similar to the fairway p tterns recently implemented by the Golf Course Superintendent. I TREE CLEARING AND PLANTING i 'i OLir experience has indicated that too many trees. rather than not enough, are a • common pIyroblem on golf courses of the Pacific Northwest. Too much shade, especiall on green's and tees, restricts turf growth and lengthens periods of wet conditions when turf is morei likely to be damaged by normal play. Shade also increases the length of time frost stays,!on areas of the course reducing the amount of play and course income during I the winter months. I Dense trees and brush are also problems in that they may restrict air movement li around tees and greens increasing the likelihood of disease. Clearing of trees is I not something we seek to do in remodeling, but to make golf course improvements recornmended here some trees must be cleared. 1 ri I I 1 II - 14 - I ' I I Al'thoJgh the course in most instances has plenty of trees. some holes and parts ofl holes could be improved by tree planting to provide background to greens and define fairways'. he greatest need for tree planting is to increase safety by providing screening. It is our opinion that this could be best accomplished by a combination of firs! other evergreens and selected decidious trees. If it is the policy of the City to exclude I the use 'lof decidious trees on the course. or if it is the Golf Course Superintendent's opinion tha they are too much additional maintenance. there are enough evergreens of different colors. shapes and sizes to provide variety. CART PATHS Present golf cart use at Maplewood is moderate because it is not an especially hilly or longil golf course and is relatively easy to walk. However. especially on weekends, present;;gol!f cart use is significant and it will increase if the course is lengthened. To 11 better accommodate these golfers and their carts and to reduce the damage they do to turf. it;�is recommended that 8' wide asphalt cart paths be installed the entire length of the golf course. These cart paths will eliminate compaction caused by carts. especially around iitees and greens. They will also provide a surface that maintenance vehicles may it use to Jget around the course quickly without damaging the course. especially in winter months: IRRIGATION d j ;Spe ific recommendations regarding the irrigation system can be found in the Irrigatilon System Evaluation. The installation of a fully automatic. properly designed and . constructed irrigation system with an adequate water source is a high priority of this Master Pan. Proper spacing of irrigation sprinkler heads will reduce wet areas and improve turf qualityin the fairways. P � DRAINAGE As discussed in the Drainage Study and above. better control of the irrigation system will reduce or eliminate wet areas during the summer months. During the winter months. better control of foot and cart traffic will help reduce damage. Some localized areas 1,Imust be improved by use of drain tile. sand and gravel. This work. where it is not part of a specific remodeling project. may be done by the course maintenance personnel; Thlere are other maintenance practices that will improve drainage on the course. Aerification of fairways could be increased to four times per year. Fairways could be verticut annually. Thatch may also be reduced by the use of hydrated lime. All these practices are relatively inexpensive. Other options involving total soil replacement land top dressling fairways are so expensive that they are not really an option. - 15 - bi I 5 Witte lbe 311** .44411W7 PLAN A MASTER REMODELING PLAN SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS PLAN A Hole #1 - 340-320-280 Yards, Par 4 Construct a new tee group slightly below existing tee mat, with rear tee extending back :towards the existing Practice Putting Green.

PHASING SCHEDULES/ FUNDING OPTIONS I plementation of either Plan A or Plan B involves phasing improvements over several fears. Phasing is desirable in that it will allow the course to remain open through the use f temporary greens and tees. This is essential in that it will keep revenue at near I existing evels and keep golfers from choosing to play other courses. Further it spreads costs over a number of years. Phasing of Plan A should occur in a manner that will address the greatest problems first.{'I A primary need of the golf course is an automatic irrigation system and, an increased water supply. It makes little sense to proceed with many other improvements without aving the capability to properly irrigate. Hence. Phase 1 of Plan A involves installati n of a new irrigation system and water supply. As previously described in this document. the existing Front Nine has less than desirable pacing for golfer safety. Phases 2 and 3, therefore, are directed at those holes which ;lore to the greatest potential for safety problems. Phase 2 involves remodeling I of holes 5', 6, 8, and 9. Remodeling of holes 1, 2. 4 and 7 will then follow as Phase 3. Also included in Phase 3 are improvements to the maintenance facility and acquisitio of the remaining private properties which lie eastward of the existing clubho Ise. Improvements to the maintenance facility could. in fact. happen at any time. However. cquisition of the private residences and subsequent removal of the dwelling units m Iust occur prior to implementation of Phase 4. Pha le 4 involves remodeling of holes 3. 10. 17 and 18 and construction of a new practice putting green. Also included in this phase is relocation of the existing entry road which Will allow for less potential for golfer/auto conflict (through a channelized signal) from the Maple Valley Highway. Relocation of the road. however. is dependent on completion of the Maple Valley Highway improvement project by the Washington State Department of Transportation. Finally. Phase 5 involves remodeling of holes 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. and 16. Not included under the phasing schedule is relocation of the stream which now divides the course. lRellpcation of the stream through the course eastward into the Cedar River would greatly add Ilto the aesthetics of the course and is seen as very desirable by the City. the Washington (State Department of Fisheries, and the Washington State Department of Transportati n. It is assumed that relocation of the stream would occur during the Maple11 Valley Highway construction. A complete phasing schedule for Plan A which outlined, timelines, costs, and potential funding sources is included in this section. - 32 - I - 1 1 I haling for Plan B is again based upon maintaining an 18 hole course throughout the imp)ovement process. Phase 1 involves construction of new holes 13. 14. 15. and 16 on an additional 40 acres secured from King County, 29 of which would be utilized as part of the g if course. Completion of this phase would then facilitate the closure of groups of othei h les. thereby eliminating the need for a great number of temporary tees and greens. Phase 1 is seen as a two-year effort with negotiation with King County officials and design occurring in 1986 and construction beginning in Spring 1987. The new holes should tI en be ready for play by late summer of 1988. Various safety improvements to I the existing course (primarily to holes 5 and 6) will also occur as part of Phase 1. ' Phase 2 of Plan B includes remodeling of holes 10. 11. 12. 17 and 18 and construction of the practice area/driving range. Completion of the practice area will supply) needed additional revenue to retire the additional long-term financing secured, at the beginning of Phase 2. Ph se 3 involves construction of the new centrally located clubhouse campus. This phase 11 it be a joint effort between the City and a private concessionaire. The City's portio�1 of the clubhouse includes the pro shop and cart storage barn and could either be construct d independently or in concert with the main clubhouse facility. The maintei an a facility improvements would also be included in Phase 3. Phase 4 involves remodeling of holes 2, 3. 5, 7, and 9 and acquisition of the remaining private property. Finally. Phase 5 involves remodeling of holes 1. 4. 6 and 8. 'A complete hasing schedule for Plan B which outlines timelines, costs and potential funding sourcesllis included in this section. `)though Plan A and Plan B are phased over a seven-year period, the improvement program could be extended further if so desired. The City will. however, not realize the maximum revenue possible until the improvement program is fully complete. Funding for both Plan A and Plan B includes $821.842 of Councilmanic Bonds (the 1986 Co1unclmanic Bond Issue). These funds will allow for completion of Phase 1 and Phase 2(for Plan A and Phase 1 for Plan B. Other potential funding sources include a special User fee for course capital improvements charged to each round of golf and the /eve sale of ue bonds or other lon -term deemed advanta eg financing advantageous and financially', feasible. 1 - 33- { I PLAN A PHASING SCHEDULE Phase Implementation Opening Scope Cost Funding Source 1 1986 1987 Irrigation System and $ 585,450 1986 Councilmanic Bond Issue 2 1987 1988 HolesWater 5, 6Supply, 8 and 9 $ 260,460 1986 Councilmanic Bond Issue User Fees 3 1988 1989 Holes 1, 2, 4 and 7 $ 453,681 Revenue Bonds Maintenance Facility User.

This can be attributed to a number f factors including low play in the winter months and the course's relatively short ten a th. The course does not seem to attract a large number of serious golfers. Based upon interviews with Maplewood's pro. Ken Lawrence, and other golf professiglnals in the area, ;it can be assumed that completion of the master remodeling plans o lined in this document will greatly increase course play and revenue generated. Implemntation of Plan A should result in a course which would compare quite favorably with; Fo'ter Golf Course, which is owned by the City of Tukwila. This would put play at above 1985 totals. I _• around 60,000 rounds. an increase of 8,000 • Implementation of Plan B should result in a course which should compare favorably in play and in all probability be a better overall course than Bellevue Municipal, which is owned y the City of Bellevue. This would put play at around 75,000 rounds, an increase of approximately 23,000 rounds per year.

Puget Sound public course green fees (weekend 18 hole rate) range; from a low of $8.00 to a high $14.95. With the exception of the three City of 9 of Seattle courses and Foster Golf Course. all courses have a weekend 18 hole rate of at -- least l$9.00 with the overall average being $9.57. Maplewood. therefore. with a weekend 18 hole rate of $9.00 is below average. Although Maplewood's present green fees are fairly competitive with the local 1 marketplace. there does seem to be room in the near future to raise rates slightly. Rates should. however. remain competitive and any increase during the improvement program should be directly tied to the capital improvement program. Green fees could then be adluste at completion of the master remodeling program to reflect the quality:of the course. , - 37 - I 1 1 1 I PROJECTED YEARLY REVENUES I PLAN A PLAN B ITEM EXISTING COURSE Revenue Difference Revenue Difference Green Fees $342,000 $413,550 +$71,550 $516,937 +$174,937 Practice/ Area Fees -0- -0- None $126,000 +$126,000 Golf Cart Revenue $ 1,560 $ 8,000 +$ 6,440 $ 10,000 +$ 8,440 Pro Shop Revenue N/C N/C --- N/C --- Restaurant Revenue N/C N/C N/C --- TOTALS $343,560 $421,550 +$77,990 $652,937 +$309,377 i --- --- Administrative Fees -$ 51,300 -$ 63,232 -$ 96,441 Maintenance & Operation -$213,073 -$213,073 --- -$299,073 --- 178 236) NET PROFIT ; $ 79,187 $145,245 (+$ 66,058) 257$ 423 (+$ , SUMMARY As lindicated above, implementation of Plan A Master Remodeling Plan will result is based- , in an additional $66,058 of net profit. This amountupon an increase in play,to I 60,000 rounds Punds per year. Projected Plan A green fees are based upon existing rates.

Maintenance and operations costs remain constant under this scenario. Revenue gene lateld from the pro shop and restaurant (presently operated by the concessionaire),are expected to remain constant or slightly increase. Implementation of Plan B Master Remodeling Program will result in an additional $178,236 of net profit. This substantial increase is based upon both an expected increase 1 in play to 75,000 rounds per year and a net profit of over $100,000 for the driving range. As an Ilan A. golf cart revenue will also increase with completion of Plan B. Although revenue generated from the restaurant is expected to increase greatly due to its, new locatio along the Maple Valley Highway. the City's share is expected to remain constant becaus� of the large financial commitment expected of the selected food concessionaire.

At that time, rates could be adjusted upward to reflect the new quality of the course. Additional revenue above the amount shown can therefore be expected. ' SUMMARY Iqs indicated above, $1,262,513 of additional financing is needed to complete Plan A aster Remodeling Plan, and $2,422.940 is needed to complete Plan B Master - Remodeling Plan. Potential additional revenue during the remodeling process includes driving range profit and implementation of a special user fee assessment. This assessment I would be charged directly to each round of play and could generate a substantial amount of funds. Initial investigation indicates that $1.00 and $.50 could be charged to an 18 hole round and to a 9 hole round respectively. This would generate approximately $39.000 per year until completion when usage should increase up to the projected 75,000 rounds and 56,000$ would be generated. I - 39 - As,shown above. Option 1 does not generate any additional revenue for Plan A until the course is completed with all remodeling when the estimated $66,058 per year would be realized. This assumes that play will remain at present or slightly increase during each i construction phase. Plan B. however, would generate revenue from operation of the driving range. This is estimated to be $26,750 for the last months of 1989 and $107.000 per year thlIreafter until completion when the estimated $178,236 per year of additional, income is realized. Opti In 2 includes both revenue from the driving range and the special user assessment fee discussed above. Under this scenario. an average of $39.000 could be raised per year from the assessment along with the $107.000 per year generated from the driving mange under Plan B. When remodeling is complete in 1993. the course would then realize ,the projected additional income of $111,058 for Plan A and $234,486 for Plan B. As stated above, additional revenue through an increase in green fees could also be expected at this time due to the upgraded overall condition of Maplewood Golf Course. , 1 - 40 - 10 110 • lilka ACTION PROGRAM PLAN A ACTION PROGRAM MAY 1986 - DECEMBER 1988 • Formally adopt Plan A Master Plan - Renton City Council. • Execute contract with project architect to initiate implementation of Plan A - Phase 1 (Irrigation System and Water Supply) • Coordinate design of Phase 1 with project architect and irrigation consultant. • Review with Board of Park Commissioners current rate fees and potential of recommending to City Council implementation of a special capital improvement user fee to be used solely for Plan A - Master Remodeling Plan. • Work with Washington State Department of Fisheries and Washington State Department of Transportation on potential rerouting of stream.

PURPOSE: As part 'of the current architectural work being provided by John Steidel, Golf Course Architect at the Maplewood Golf Course, Renton, WA the firm of C. H. Kuhn & Associates, Consulting Civil/Irrigation/Drainage Engineers was assigned the ' task to provide a basic overview of the existing irrigation system. Information for this report was provided by the course Superintendent, Mr. Jim Pitman. 2. BACKGROUND: The existing irrigation system is most definitely vintage and is assumed to have been constructed as much as fifty years1 ago. It is a super-simplistic, small diameter galvanized 'pipe 1 system utilizing 1 1/2" quick coupling valves and agricultural type sprinklers. The spacing is haphazard which makes one conclude that the original system was "designed" for the flexibility of hose oriented irrigation. There has been little improvement to the system over the years and little documentation as to what actually exists . The system has the flavor of a system that was designed to direct waterto 18 greens and to irrigate fairways along the way (if the pipe was so routed) . , The system is as basic as still exists inithe golf course industry and definitely dates to the pre-1955 era., I 3. EXISTING CONDITIONS: The following conditions were found to exist at the time of the writing of this report. a. Mainline Piping: Galvanized iron pipe with no record of problems. Largest size is 4" at the pump house with the pre- dominant size being 2" . Repairs have been minimal. I-- b. ; Mainline Taps: Primarily steel tees .with straight-up risers to 'lthe quick coupling valves. ' c. , Lateral Lines : All small piping is likewise galvanized iron Wand exists down to 1 1/4" with occasional 1" sizes revealing 'themselves. Most of the 18 greens will find small diameter 1 ' galvanized pipe directly underneath, a violation of the most lholy of irrigation design standards. The small diameter pipes ]have been severely attacked by electrolysis and continue to be a labor-intensive burden on the course maintenance personnel. , This past year saw more than 145 man hours invested in thel patch • and repair of the smaller sizes of galvanized almoslt all loflthe repairs being in the vicinity of greens. d.' Sprinklers: A mix of Buckner 865, Rainbird 70b, Rainbird -_I , 65D and Buckner 860. All still available on the market in , I ,various forms. No maintenance problem of note. ' e.; Quick Coupling Valves : Originally all Nelson "Silvertop" : ' ',�wi;th 1 1/2" IPT base. Some Buckner QCV have been introduced. ' The Nelson valves continue to be a maintenance headache since , ,they tend to fail often by refusing to close completely. 1 This ,shortcoming causes frequent flooding about the QCV and results inIdamaged turf. The Nelson valve is considered a museum 'piece here in the Northwest. The quick coupling valves are randomly spaced on the fairways. !They exist on greens from one to three, mostly two to a green. ! Spacing around greens is questionable at best; placing sprinkler heads in the quick coupling valves leaves serious dry spots on dmahy greens. Naturally these areas require additional hose !watering. f. ' Pumping Plant: The system is supplied by a single 30 hp split-case centrifugal, 480 volt, three phase. It is manually !started, housed in a near-collapsed wood frame enclosure ' and is! a safetyhazard due to the open walls of the house. It is p 'electrically fed' from pole-hung transformers from a pole , si;ome !several hundred feet distant. This is a strange situation' when ,there is another pole of the same service line immediately ,adjacent to the pump house. The pump plant is very basic and does not include such niceties as pressure relief valves; !main . line shut-off valve or check valve. The previous owner always insisted that four or five sprinklers be set out on the course Hon, each nine before firing the plant apparently turning 'on the pump first caused some sort of problem with the piping due to the excessive pressure. Ordinarily this would be of no 'concern on galvanized iron pipe. But, since electrolysislwas present, the excessive pressure simply hurried the leaks ) that would have eventually shown anyway. It, would be easy to criticize the inadequacy of the pump' size, !30 hp for an 18 hole irrigation system being nearly a "low" !record for Puget Sound Golf Courses. It is recognzed that the 1130 hp pump lacks,, pressure to overcome the miles of small , !diameter galvanized iron pipe. However, the pump flow seems ',nicely suited to the limited water supply. g. ' System Scheduling: The system is limited by the sizeHof the 'pump, by the limited size of the distribution piping, by the fact that the pipe is high-loss galvanized and by the fact that the ,water supply is ,limited. Therefore, the schedule is an off- !,spring of given constraints, and not at the pleasure of the course superintendent. Given these aforementioned constraints, the following represents a typical July watering day: 7:30 pm. . . .'Night waterman places four to five heads on each nine and then starts pump. Increases load to 14 to' 18 heads. The latter loading seriously affects water pressure on the higher elevations of the course. Watering continues I until 2:30 ,am by which time all greens and 6 fairways have been watered. 2:30 am till5 : 30 am no watering conducted. _ 5 :30 am Day crew comes on. One man continues watering fairways until compete and then hits weak spots with.;the supplemental hose watering. By this time the dam water supply is getting precariously low and all watering must cease. - 2 - I h. [ Water Supply: The course is served by a small creek with a limited summer water supply. The fact that the creek must provide sufficient water to satisfy the State Fisheries Dept. further constrains the supply. The water is impounded by a small concrete dam previously used to supply a local residential development. A combination steel and wood stave 6" line taps E the reservoir and feeds the pump directly at its location; near 410, fairway. The wood stave pipe is in a deteriorated state, Where it is buried and is scheduled for early replacement. The impounding reservoir behind the dam is quite small and has gradually filled in over the years. There is no access road to the site so any cleaning of the reservoir must be accomplished by band labor. The result of this labor intensive effort is a loss of many man-hours and silt contamination of the stream. This practice would be looked on with much disfavor by those controlling the fisheries but then this three-times-a-yearI activity is absolutely necessary to keep the course alive. The silting pond downstream from the dam requires annual ; dredging, last being done by the previous owner. This again • is 'labor intensive but at least can be done by• machines. It would be wise to have the blessings of the fisheries people before proceding with such work. Tt :should be noted that the 6" feeder line also feeds the fish pool of the adjacent private property belonging to a Mrs. McCarty. Any change, interruption, etc. , may requires neighborly coordination this may require legal inter- pretation. !Water rights information was sketchy at best. Information pro- II sided this office by the City of Renton indicated that there is 'some rights on the stream dating 1917 but with no quantities. Even though the stream is inadequate for any major course irrigation improvement, whatever water rights that exist should berinvestigat-ed/improved but only after an alternate water source has been ascertained to exist. i. Water Quality: The stream water is considered quite good inquality. The' shallow storage reservoir and its penchant to fill with debris quickly causes some deleterious material to enter the suction line occasionally, eventually ending up caught !lin' a quick coupling valve. !, 3. CONCLUSIONS: There is very little positive that can be said about the existing irrigation system at Maplewood Golf Course. It is. aged, sub- standard in pipe sizing, labor intensive, and restricted by a very limited, water supply. The system is not convertible to, a more modern type of system nor is any of the existing equipment, pipe and pumps of sufficient value to retain. The system should continue to be used in its present limited manner or be abandoned completely if improvements are contemplated. Specific conclusions follow: a. ; Mainline Piping: That which exists is limited diameter but it has held together over the years . - 3 - 1 1 b. '1 Lateral Piping: Obviously labor-intensive, undersized remnants of an ancient system. The fact that much of it 'lays under greens surfaces further negates its value. It should be used temporarily as is and definitely scheduled for replacement Around the greens. Because of its limited size, its location and its maintenance history, it has no value to any futur;e', irrigation system. c. I Sprinklers: Adequate for the present limited system., ' 1 d. , Quick Coupling Valves: Here again we face the age of the basic irrigation system. The quick coupling valves originally installed were rarities even when they were installed. Their history of problems suggests that their use be discontinued., Because of the many other problems with the irrigation system, 1.t might be better to repair them until a better irrigation system is installed. e. 11 Pumping Plant: The only thing that can be said positive about the existing plant is that it works, more or less, for the present irrigation system. As long as the present system isdn the ground, the present plant will suffice. The pump house enclosure is a liability and is either going to collapse or stand as an attractive nuisance to local youth. Inasmuch as ,it carries three phase, 480 volt power, it is a liability. The limited horsepower and capacity of the existing pump 'has been addressed previously. But since the water supply is so every limited and since the system coverage is likewise limited, the present pump size befits the present irrigation system. f. System Scheduling: The course maintenance staff are doing all that the present system will permit within the limits of the present water supply. Thru night labor they are able to irrigate the basic greens area and have them somewhat dry by the time greens mowing needs to be accomplished in the morning. The daytime watering is necessary since the pump and piping are far too small to permit complete nighttime watering for the course. The schedule cut-off point is essentially automatic in the warm summer months since the reservoir runs dry daily. - g. Water Supply: The only favorable comment to be made with regards to the water supply is that what water is available, is free. Otherwise, the supply is insufficient to adequately water (that part of the course that is now irrigated. Certainly the (supply is even less adequate if any major course irrigation improvement is contemplated. Aside from the lack of water quantity, the present reservoir is4 liability. It is shallow, fills with debris and sedimen- tation far too frequently and is isolated so that machinery --- cannot be used to service it. The current method of cleaning ,the reservoir thru flushing deserves to be critically reviewed. h. '; System Hydraulics: The present system must be managedllvery , I, (carefully in order to overcome the limitations of the 2" ,average size galvanized piping and the small supply pump. Fairway. #8 - 4 - has; severe problems; greens #14 and #15 also suffer. Most of the; problem exists simply because the water must travel too far thru too small, high-loss galvanized pipe. By careful sched- uli'ng, the Superintendent has been able to struggle through the pressure-poor system. , 4 . RECOMMENDATIONS: The existing irrigation system at Maplewood is an excellent example .of "making do" with nothing. No single element of the system ,is worthy of acclaim except for the manner by which the Maintenance Staff keeps it glued together and babies it along during the irriga- tion ;icycle. As noted previously, it can be continued to be used in its present form and under its present operational standards with the a;grgnomic results that the course has had in the past. If there ; , is a ''desire to improve the coverage, eliminate much hand-watering, eliminate much maintenance labor, to irrigate more of the course, and, ,,in, particular, to improve the agronomic standards of the c,'ourse, then1,itis recommended that the present system be abandoned in-place, totally. Nothing in this system is worthy of salvage to be incorporated into a newer, more agronomically conscious system.' If the results that the course enjoys from the present system' sre adequate, then retain the system, keep patching it but do not, spend any monies enlarging ..it or modifying it. Specific recommendations are as follows: . a.' Immediately ,replace the failing wood stave pipe section, of the pump feeder ;line. fib.' Shore up or 're-house the pump plant, put a floor in same. It is a hazard as it now stands. ' c.! Construct a:road to the reservoir site so that equipment can be used to dredge it. This would also allow the hauling i , laway of the dredge spoils in an environmentally sound manner. , d. When considering a master plan for the course, obtain] a preliminary design for a modern irrigation system. This would ; provide a road map so that in the event any course recon-' struction takes place, that the irrigation system that is,, then installed, might not simply add to the current system dilemma. I e. Verify current water rights. When they are known, evaluate their adequacy with regard to the present system and to a1 future ir system. j f,. Commence a study to revise the current water storage ,and supply system. ; It is obvious that the water supply is inad- 11 equate for the present irrigation coverage and that it would be even more so for a new system. A supplementary source of water must be found. In conjunction with this study, consider the relocation of the storage reservoir. Leave the intercepting dam where it is but funnel the water into a new storage, pond on the golf course, one that might act doubly as a water hazard. '' - This will provide two major benefits: 1. It will permit the storage of much more water than is now permitted by the small - 5 - , I I I existing reservoir (thereby accomodating emergencies better) , ,and 2. It will permit settlement of water-borne matter which !now infects the system. The same reservoir could be used to (store water from any new-found supplementary water source. . I As an interim measure, provide the golf course with a g quality conductive pipe-finder. This will permit them to lunravel the mystery of where their present system is located and '!what the purpose and destination might be of the many galvanized '!pipe appendages that are connected to the system and which occasionally reveal themselves during routine maintenance iwork.

Kennewick, WA 99336 , 1 Dear Jahn: Subsequent to the forwarding of my report on irrigation for the Maplewood Golf Course, I received a copy of the Maplewood water rights claim from the City of Renton. This letter then shall • serve as a supplement to my original irrigation report. ' Theii.enrclosed copy of the water rights for the course indicates ; that . the'; course is entitled to 750 gpm, 24 hours per day,. It also says -, that the course can 'take water up to 2 acre feet per year for 100 741 acres. This all translates to the following: ; 1j ! , 1. 750 gpm for 8 hours a day is probably enough for the course. 750 gpm for 24 hours is an absolute bonanza. With a 11 storage pond, this flow, if entirely captured, would suffice 1i for a system using 2,250 gpm. Largest t pump plant we have worked on herein the Puget sound region used 1,200 gpm. 11 2. If we use local climatic EVT charts, we can estimate ;the need on a Puget Sound golf course at approximately 14" for the entire irrigation year. Usually we can say that we will ;be watering 70 acres on the average course. By simple math 'we --i ! - arrive at 14" divided by 12" times 70 acres or an annual. need of 81.67 acre feet per year. The water .right allows 2, acre feet per year over 100 acres or 200• acre feet. Another total bonanza. , ' . The bottom line is not so clear. Since the rights were issued in 1917,ithe stream drainage basin has been measurably reduced by ,j suburban growth. Also• there appears to be some concern on the part of thie State Fisheries about- minimum. allowable. flows for fish. I • -,dono't know whether the Fisheries or the Water-Rights take. � , . • pr,ece'dence, but this should be pursued. . Additionaly, Jim Pitman indicates that the 'flow is quite --limited in the summer.. I suggest 'that ;a wier test be conducted this summer on at least- 4 occasions. Inlsummary, if there is 750 gpm of available flow in the summer -. months, the course has all the water it needs. I. seriously doubt that Isuch a gold mine exists based on the information we garnered. — Summer verification is absolutely essential. . Sir�� . rel.. ..., Lit, , y Yo rs, , , ., , . , , . Carl H.

PURPOSE Under a contract between the City of Renton, Parks & Recreation Dept. and John Steidel, Golf Course Architect, the firm of C. H. Kuhn and Associates, Consulting Civil, Irrigation and Drainage Engineers of Mercer Island, WA was retained as a sub-consultant to evaluate and report on the drainage conditions at Maplewood Golf Course. The report is to include recommendations for correction of deficiencies, if ;such is practical or possible. 2. BACKGROUND The, City of Renton recently took title to the Maplewood Golf Course in 1985. Prior to that time it was a privately-owned public play course. In the short time of ownership, maintenance personnel have found a number of areas on the course where drainage presents a major winter playing constraint. , 3. INVESTIGATION PARAMETERS In order to determine the cause of the drainage problems at Maplewood andllto make recommendations for alleviation or correction thereof, the drainage investigation included the following parameters: a. General site investigation b. Review of course conditions with Golf Course Architect c. Visual identification of soil/water conditions of pre-selected test holes,. `d. Percolation and infiltration tests of selected test holes. e. Soil sample and sieve analysis of selected test hole material. f. Overview of above information with identification of problems. c. Recommendations for drainage improvement. 4. PHILOSOPHY OF DRAINAGE ON ATHLETIC ORIENTED TURF SURFACES As a 'prolog to the technical evaluations contained within this report, it is important to understand the fundamental problems that athletic- oriented turf areas face. First of all, golf courses were seldom sited because someone found the soil, drainage, topo conditions, etc. , as highly suited to golf course adaption. All too often the land for a golf course was selected because it was surplus, available, not in the program for other; construction, etc. . As long as there was an area of 90 to 125 acres available, a golf course could be constructed. Hence' it is not uncommon for major problems to crop up AFTER a golf course has been constructed. In the case of Maplewood Golf Course, the new Owners and their maintenance staff discover what likely was known for many years by the previous 50 year Owners, ' that - 1 Natu�' re, thru the medium of glacial action eons ago, dropped something less than beach sand at the golf course site. Many golf courses in the', Puget Sound region were sited on land that includes heavy silt or clay materials, materials that may permit water to infiltrate and percolate, but VERY , SLOWLY. In the case of Maplewood, it lays in the shadow of a river and likely had seen numerous floods and deposits of slow-draining river silt. Add to this dilemma an overabundance of 1 rainfall that seemsito be present continuously from October to March or April and we find two natural conditions detrimental to quick dissipation of surface moisture SLOW DRAINING SOIL AND AN OVER- ABUNDANCE OF PRECIPITATION. These are, as previously noted,', natural conditions found in '.Puget Sound. Add to this a third, but indirect natural condition mild Winter weather which encourages outdoor activity for twelve months of the year. The crowning touch occurs thru a man-made ingredient, heavy traffic of golf shoes, golf hand carts, golf riding carts and maintenance equipment. All four of these conditions combine to create untenable playing conditions on a turfed surface. This is done thru the following action: ,a. Water, being inherently lazy, migrates vertically thru the soil ,because of gravity and will continue to do so as long as the soil is not saturated. or the ,b. If the soil is fine textured, ie. silty or clayey, ',sod is heavily thatched and extremely dense, the water moves - thru at a very slow pace. Hence we find the problem with heavy rains running off these soils rather than down into ,and thru ,them. This may ,all be good except when the runoff simply moves from one part of. the course to another, we may have solved some of the problem in one place and seriously added to the problem • H in another location. C. When the pores of a material are completely full of water, 1 the material is in a saturated condition. Any activity which causes a disturbance of the material tends to change the soil characteristics,{ 'often destroying whatever natural drainage channels that might have existed. Additionally, organic material decays or rots on the surface, causing some sealing and further slowing infiltration. D. Old turf generally exhibits a heavy layer of "thatch" , that is a long term build-up of dead grass stems, leaves, etc. . If not treated each year with appropriate verti-cutting (thatching) and aerification, water movement is further restricted. It now can be seen that golf courses have all of the ingredients that drainage.are necessary to slow or inhibit dr e. Take away any of the three g primary ingredients, ' excess rain, fine textured soils, or excess traffic and you have no problem. The rain and soil are Nature' s contribution; traffic is the gift of man. If we eliminate traffic, we have a nice- j to-Took-at lawn but no golf course; we have no control overtrain. The only avenue left, although most impractical, is to change the soil characteristics as we do in building a new football turfed field. A new turfed, underdrained, permeable football field costs in the range of $100 ,000 to , $150,000 for the 2 1/2 acres; obviously a 125 acre,', golf course is not a candidate for this type of construction. fl - 2 - , 1 5 EXISTING CONDITIONS In order to determine the cause of Maplewood's drainage problems, this study evaluated the causative factors noted in Paragraph 4. above. Rainfall is uncontrollable and therefore a moot point. Traffic on the course is much less than normal during the Winter season but' is certainly a .significant causitive factor. Soil, infiltration and percolation conditions were the remaining areas left to evaluate and are chronicled in; the Appendix o€, this report. a. Site surface evaluation: During the investigative visits to the site, each fairway was reviewed to determine the degree of drainage constraints that existed. The standing water was the first visual problem seen; this condition was found during the wet winter months of December and January. The January inspection, followed a reasonably wet preceeding week. All of the turf was wet but much of it was considered playable. There were some areas that suffered from severe saturation, others that reflected a hillside transition to flat ground and the ensuing collection of water. There were a few small pools, most man-made by the maintenance crew to direct ',standing water off of the main playing surface. Several greens were totally saturated and evidenced measurable loss of turf. 'The loss of additional turf had been abated by the Superintendent once the obvious saturation problem was evaluated. In general, Maplewood was not much different than many gulf 1 courses in the Puget Sound region during the month of January. , It was wet, but playable to the avid golfer; it had some areas with serious drainage problems. These were investigated further. A problem unto itself was found on #18 green. The entire surface • , of the green was in a saturated condition and portions of the green turf were', completely gone. There was evidence of the moisture being perched in the top thatch layer and that the , underlying soils were quite impervious. The percolation test [ verified this assumption, the undelying soils showing absolutely no perc capability. This green appears to be an excellent can- , didate for complete reconstuction. b. Visual Identification of Test Holes: Exhibit #1 provides a location map for the 10 test holes (for which sieve analysis or ,percolation tests were conducted) . Exhibit #2 describes the the identification of the borings in general soil. classification. ;It can be seen that all test holes had a layer of dense thatch 'varying from 1/2" to 2" . Most of the test holes revealed a very ,fine silty sand or clayey silt, not an unexpected finding in a river basin. Obviously the course was formed by river flooding over many years by virtue of the widespread deposit of silty material. Little in the way rocks or gravel was found. No immediate standing water was found in any but one of the test holes. That singular hole obviously intercepted a mole run which fed measurable water into the hole. Quite a number of other test holes were checked for water 24 hours after excavation and were found to have minor amounts of water therein. In most cases the water seeped into the hole from an interface of soils at '14" to 18" in depth. One hole filled partially from surface seepage exiting from the saturated thatch. - 3 - 1 ! lid c. Percolation Tests: The 10 primary test holes were tested for percolation (Holes labeled #1 thru #10) . In addition, surface infiltration tests were conducted near test holes #3 and #7 . l These were conducted by use of a double surface pipe that was ' driven into the surface soil. The results of the percolation and. infiltration tests are chronicled as Exhibit #3 . , 1 Percolation tests revealed reasonably good perc in four test holes, #1, #5, #6 and #8; the balance of test holes had poor to non-existant perc. The variation is not unexpected since the soils were undoubtedly moved and compacted during the course construction arid since some areas have withstood heavier ,com- paction than others. The two upper elevation test holes, #9 and #10 (on fairways 14 and 15) were clay laden and had no perc at all. Both of these holes either produced subgrade water or were filled from surface seepage. Most perc tests were conducted i in test holes that had a depth of 18" t0 24" . Additionally, two surface infiltration tests were run using the double-pipe system (refer to Exhibit #3) . Both of the surface ' tests revealed extremely slow infiltration. This signified that the . compact surface thatch had substantial resistance to the vertical flow of water. ' Overwatering an area or excess rainfall in that , same area, compounded by foot or vehicle traffic, would certainly , create damaged turf, destroyed surface soil characteristics, and ' causing the invevitable standing water pool. d. Sieve Analysis: Exhibit #4 provides the results of the , Certified Test Lab reports on the sieve analysis of materials sampled in the 4" to 12" depth of all holes. All sieves 'gave ' indication of high percentages of silts (from 14% to 58%) . Equally important is the fact that all sieves indicated ',a, —, , reasonably straight line composition of materials. Thisfactor suggests that the materials are compactable as well as fine in ' grain sizes. There was no direct correlation between the, silt content and' the perc rate which is somewhat unusual. The compactiveness of the individual soils appeared to be the primary reason for difference in percolation rates. 6. CONCLUSIONS 1 Theisolution to the { drainage problems at Maplewood Golf Course is notisimple. The evidence put forth by the Exhibits to this report indicates that the course was constructed on a river-silt basin of fines with varying percolation capability. There are some areas that perc adequately and bodes well for winter play. Other areas are totally without perc capability. In addition, the thatch layers are verb compact and those tested in the two infiltration tests were extremely slow to pass water. , . When the question is asked "What can be done with the drainage problems at Maplewood?" , the answers are not simple nor pat. First of all, the problems are varied on the course, that is there are good and bad areas on the same course. Secondly, remdies for the severe drainage problems are very expensive there is no magic wand treatment for tight silt or clay soils that will help them pass water outside of completereplacement and underdraining. - 4 - i I l , Normally one would recommend additional surface aerification to help move water through the surface thatch. Since the surface subgrade is of tight soils, this process would be a temporary band aid and could only be done when the course is dry enough to aerify those wet areas. Naturally the aerification must be continuous, at least 3-4 times per year. The only time the wet areas are dry is when the irrigation system has been turned off, n'o .rain has fallen and the areas given the chance to dry out. This ideal situation will occur only in the dry of, summer. However, some compromise must be made in order to get the number of aerifications needed; hence Spring and Fall aerifications are in order. In summary, continuation of aerification throughout the year will be a Major assist to the bulk of the course area. It will not cure the wet spot problems. , These can be cured only by keeping traffic off, allowing the area to dry out, re-construct the soil profile by eliminating the muddy residue and replacing with a more permeable soil and then controlling the irrigation and traffic in those areas. Since this process would be extremely costly, a compromise must be reached. This compromise would involve selected drain installation, topdressing with selected sand, and in the case of #18 green, rebuild the entire green. These items will be addressed specifically in the recommendation section. 7. RECOMMENDATIONS a. Continue a vigorous program of aerification to assist the passage of surface moisture into the subgrade. It is recog- inized that the tight soils do not allow for rapid passage of surface water but the aerification does help. The tight soils are also quick to re-close, necessitating repeated aerification passes. , b. In areas ofextremely dense thatch, use a slicer or thatcher (verti-cutting machine) to loosen the heavy mat. This method Lmay also be limited if there are near-surface rocks; however, few ; were found in the ten test holes excavated. The thatching must , be done carefully, and areas of thin thatch must be avoided lest the entire mat of Poa Annua be destroyed. , c. In areas such as #18 green and on #4 green, reconstruction is ,the only answer. The greens are so completely devoid of permeable material that they can never be expected to drain. Remove the 'old material, reconstruct with underdrains and selected medium ',grain sands and seed, stolonize or re-sod with pre-qualified sand-grown sod (difficult to find) . d. Areas such as fairway #11 indicate acceptable perc but still have surface moisture. Aerification, verticutting and sand top-dressing would measurably improve this area. Once the sand Itop-dressing has been completed (2"-3" in depth over a three year ',application period) , selected underdrains could be installed to pass the water to dry wells installed in the rough areas. - 5 - 1 e. Toe of slope areas such as found below #14 and #15 greens are serious and not easily improved. Part of the problem lies with the water contribution of the nearby steep hillside, ,the balance , of the problem falls within the scope of impossible clay soils. Here it is recommended that large french drain intercepts be installed at the toe of the wooded hillside. The intercepted water must be carried with tight lines downhill to temporary lakes in the ,roughs. Consideration should be given to , use of small evacuation pumps to pipe the water to nearby water courses. Otherwise, the storage lakes will be Winter lakes and Summer potholes, not a sightly condition (and sometimes quite smelly) . Exposed french drains cannot be constructed and left to fend for themselves. They need servicing to insure that there, is no constraint to water entering the drain. Occasionally they have to be flushed or have the contaminated drain rock removed and replaced. Additionaly, �these wet, clay bound areas can be top dressed when dry and when the depth of sand is adequate (2"-3" ) , install intercepting drains parallel with the countours. No amount of . drain piping :or trenches cut into the dense material without an overlayment of sand applied in carefully controlled lifts will , give anything but dry strips the width of the trenches., Total replacement of the impervious soils (not cost effective' for these areas ) or top dressing with underdrains cut in later are the only ' 1 remedies for these difficult areas. I f. A singular case of measurable subgrade infiltration, of water occurred in Test Hole #6 on Fairway #3. While this is an iso- 1 lated case, it likely can be improved by installing an intercept- ing drain up-slope and carrying the water to a downhill site in , i a rough area (dry well) . 8. SUMMARY Normally we would expect a direct correlation between the sieve results, the perc tests and the visual identification of soils. With such a correlation it would be easy to conclude that tight, ' silty soils are the culprit causing the course drainage problems,. Not so at Maplewood. Holes with larger amounts of fines perced better than some with lesser amounts. In the case of Maplewood, it appears that 1 the mix of sands and silts and their compactability is the cause of some of the poor perc tests. And then there are the hillside holes that are of clay and need no further comment.

Mercer Island, WA 98040 Mercer Island,WA 98040 , ' Jan. 21, 1986 II JohnlrSteidel, Golf Architect Maplewood Golf Course 4204S. Tacoma P1. Kennewick, WA 99336 Dear; John: , Subsequent to the forwarding of my report on drainage for the f Mapl;Iewood Golf Course, we experienced a hundred year intensity storm in the Puget Sound area. The results were devestating, to say the least. i 1 Maplewood did not escape the wrath of the storm. For this reason, . and at the request of Jim Pitman, I made a special site visit to 1 1 Maplewood to review the storm damage. The attached report is ;a chronicle of what I found. You may wish to attach the supplement to the original report. , 1 I S' rely Yours, Carl H. Kuhn, P.E. CHK:gzs i Encl: Maplewood Supplement I I i • I • • I I 1 - I I Asite,Fvisit was conducted January 21, 1986 to determine the damage sustained by Maplewood Golf Course as a result of the 3" plus of rain- fall o'ccuring 1/8/86. . The following applies. 1. The main dam storage area was completely filled with the erosion residue. The pipe intake to the irrigation system was covered with three feet of silt, rocks and gravel and the sluice gate was under seven feet of the same. The sluice gate was in an open position but only dripping water. The flow over the dam face wasimeasurable, even three days after the storm. Storage at the dam is non-existant; the dam is useless in its present form. Major investment of equipment and labor will be required to make the reservoir useable. Refer to my original report in which I made note of the fact that the site was not readily accessible by equipment and: that past "dredging" had been conducted with hand tools. This archaic method is not possible with the massive 'siltation that has occurred. Additionally, the path to the dam is not useable in its present condition to carry construction equipment or earth-hauling vehicles. 2. The silting basin below the dam is also useless at this time. It has been filled with debris and the retaining berm has been J 'completely washed out. 13. The culvert ;which passed under the adjacent State Highway was 'unable to handle the inordinate flow. As a result there was a major backup of water on the south side of the course which ; deposited large ' quantities of silt on the course near th,e ; road. IIt is understood that this backup also overflowed the highway and ' caused a major flood at the nearby railroad underpass. 4. The stream running thru the course ran out of its banks in a number of areas; decimating portions of the course and creating problems with the stream bed. The natural response at this time would be to ask what we can do NOW to alleviate the situation and/or to prevent reoccurance. Our original report suggested a storage lake on the course as part of the long range planning. This is still a viable recommendation but it would ,be better timed if it occurred after an amplifying water source was identified. Then it would be possible to provide a pumping plant that would suffice fora future irrigation system, not one to simply replace the 'plant now existing. Certainly, using a low level lake as opposed to a flooded suction supply as now exists would require more pumping capacity than is available presently on the course. Before any major expenditure is programmed, it is strongly suggested that a total evaluation of alternatives be undertaken. i I i I A-3 wIrd1W,.44(. .

The estimated cost for this installation is approximately $68,000.00. Necessary funding for this project is available with the Utility Division budget. Very truly yours, ja—t.,./ -(jr-z-\_ Richard C. Houghton Public Works Director wtr 200 Mill Avenue South - Renton, Washington 98055 - (206) 235-2569 August 1, 1988 Renton City Council Minutes- !Page 227 noted that the existing 15-20-foot paved road meanders within the'right-of- way through the plat except for a section near SW Sunset Boulevard where it encroaches on private property on the east. Upon Council inquiry regarding purchase of that property, City Attorney Warren advised that since,the road has existed in that location for a number of years, the City has obtained title or at least an easement for the roadway by adverse possession. Council discussion was held regarding whether the roadway would be of sufficient width to provide secondary access for emergency vehicles, and it was suggest'ed that Dr. Swaim may be able to lease right-of-way for parking purposes from the City. Audience comment was invited. Slavo Osbolt, 300 Maple Avenue SW, Renton, opposed the petitioner's request to vacate a 30-foot strip since it would increase traffic safety hazard caused by location of dumpster at the animal hospital, questioned location of proposed sidewalk, and questioned emergency access. It was explained that proposed location of sidewalk will be on the westerly side of the street, and since the intersection will be larger as a result of the vacation, emergency access will be improved. Lucy Osbolt, 430 Maple Avenue SW, Renton, questioned whether any of her property would be taken as a result of the change in roadway configuration. Mr. Houghton indicated that maintaining the right-of-way width at 35 feet instead;of 60 would shift encroachments from public to private property and still maintain adequate width for access and emergency vehicles: MOVED BY HUGHES, SECONDED BY REED, COUNCIL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

This action has, been held in abeyance due to the lack of adequate fire flow in the vicinity and waterline extension. The recently installed 16" water line on the south side of the course and the new well drilling makes this project feasible and prudent at this time.

There apparently was a problem with e:;isting fire flow in the area which has been corrected with the new 16" line which runs down the south side of the golf course. This seems an opportune time to correct the problem. Attached please find cost estimates provided to me from Bob Bergstrom of Public Works . The water line has been upsized to accommodate the needs of the new wells currently being drilled at the course so the cost is higher than absolutely necessary; but the action seems prudent. Both myself and the Fire Chief feel this action is necessary and should be implemented as soon as possible. - C:s w Attachment cc: Chief Wheeler, Fire Department Dan Clements, Finance Director 200 Mill Avenue South - Renton, Washington 98055 - (206) 235-2560 •.• g% 14- CITY OF RENT ON 1BLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT Earl Clymer, Mayor ~ Design/Util'ity, Engineering ' MEMORANDUM DATE: ' June 27, 1988 1 T0: John Webley, Parks Director FROM: .

One project identified in the plan was the acquisition of Maplewood Golf Course, a sub-regional facility that has been a topic of discussion between the City and King County for a number of years; most recently in the unsuccessful Pro Parks Bond Issue in 1984. The course, located just east of the Renton Cityilimits, Was; finally purchased by the City in February 1985, utilizing $3.965 million in Councilmanic Bonds. One justification for the action was that it 'was in imminent danger of being lost to more intense urban development deemed un- desirable by the City. The course was subsequently annexed into the City. 1 In late 1985 a Master Plan for the course was undertaken to identify needed improvements and to' formulate an action program to accomplish;:the findings of the study. The most pressing need identified in the plan was additional II land to strengthen the course's economic viability and make it more desirable to the golfing public. The only suitable land in the immediate vicinity is King County's CedarRiver Regional Park located just east of the golf course across the Cedar River. The land is well suited for the proposed use links up the two pieces of property in purpose as well as concept. Further- more, the plan does not negatively impact the river corridor which has been jointly planned by King County and the City of Renton as an importantllink in ,the Cedar River Regional Trail System. ,The current Cedar River Regional Park Master Plan calls for more intense devlelopment of athletic facilities in the 28 acre area we propose for golf course expansion; •a course of action deemed necessary during the Master liPlan process due to the lack of such fields in the Renton area, but ,not considered highly desirable for the site. I am pleased that King County was able to relieve' the pressure for such intense development by acquiring a large site on the, plateau south of the Cedar River Corridor near Petrovisky Road which will be more suitable for such facilities. ' +.`The Maplewood Golf Course Master Plan was officially adopted by thelenton . City Council on May, 19, 1986. Plan 'B' which calls for expansion of the I The Honorable Tim Hill Page 2 May 23, 1986 course, was the preferred course of action. The City has allocated $821,000 to begin work on Phase I of the plan, specifically for development of four new golf holes on the identified King County site. The City of Renton hereby requests King County's consideration of a proposal to transfer approximately 42 acres of Cedar River Regional Park to the City for the expansion of Maplewood Golf Course (28 acres) and the extension of the Cedar River Trail (14 acres) . The City recognizes that additional information beyond the content of this letter will be needed, and therefore has included a copy of the Golf Course Master Plan. City staff are prepared to meet with representativesof King County to respond to further inquiries. Please contact John Webley, Parks & Recreation Director, for any additional information. Your consideration of our proposal will be greatly appreciated. Cho. i.,, Gcka. Barbara Y.

Letter was read from Charlie Stewart, City's concessionaire at Maplewood Pull Tabs at Golf Course, requesting permission to offer pull tabs at the facility to Golf Course help promote business during the winter months. City Attorney Warren indicated that consumption of alcohol and gambling on City property have previously been prohibited. However, the Council recently allowed alcohol to be served at the clubhouse, and the approval of pull tabs would also'require a change in City policy.

As the City's concessionaire at Maplewood Golf Course, I am. requesting your permission to offer pull tabs in the restaurant. ' Pull tabs would help me promote the restaurant, especially during , the off season for golf. After completing one year of operation, ' II dam exploring every possible business promotion to increase business during the winter months. It has been my experience, as owner/operator of Jack's Drive In, that pull tabs enhance a restaurant operation's, financial stability. A presentation was made to the Renton Park Board of Commissioners and they referred me to the City Council. I would appreciate any opportunity to explain my proposal to you.

Pull tabs 'would serve as a business stimulant for the restaurant, therefore Iproividing the concessionaire with a better opportunity to make ,the restaurant a financial success. A copy of the memo from the City Attorney was presented to the Park Board at the February meeting. While the memo states that it is within the Park Board's authority to grant this request, it was the concensus of the Park Board that this decision is out of their scope of control since it is a matter that impacts all city-owned property and should be forwarded to the City Council for consideration. It is the recommendation of the Park Board that if pull tabs are allowed, they should be restricted to the lounge areas. 1 I Charlie Stewart, concessionaire at Maplewood Golf Course, has been) informed of the Park Board recommendation that he present thisl issue to the City Council for their consideration.

Warren, City Attorney RE: Pull Tabs at Maplewood Golf Course Dear', Bob: By memorandum dated January 23, 1986 you made certain inquiries about pull tabs at Maplewood Golf Course. Initially, pull tabs are supposed to be commercial stimulants. Ostensibly the ' commercial stimulation would benefit the City indirectly through increased use of the golf course and the other facilities. At the same time, pull tabs were not included within the original contractural agreement between the City and the operator of the golf ,course and the City should probably insure that it benefits fromany increased commercial activity. I do not know of any rule that prohibits the City from benefiting from pull tabs, although the intent to have them serve as a commercial stimulant would seem to indicate that the City' s benefit .should be through. a percentage of the gross which would be increased by commercial stimulation. You have asked me to confirm that pull tabs are legal at municipally owned golf courses under the rules of the Gambling Commission and the, Renton Park Board. I have not attempted to research the Gambling Commission rules, but the Revised Code of Washington ' does not prohibit pull tabs at municipally owned golf courses. Likewise, I have, not researched the Park Board rules and regulations as they may 'be, changed by the Park Board at any time. It would appear to me that the Park Board has a basic policy issue before it. Does it wish to allow pull tabs at the Maplewood Golf Course? If it does not, it should simply deny the request. Robert L. Hufnagle January 30, 1986 Page -2- The City certainly has the right to dictate what activities take place on its recreation properties. On the other hand, if it believes that pull tabs would be a benefit to the golf -course, then it should give its approval to this application. The applicant would then be required to obtain the proper permits, if he can, from the State Gambling Commission. You inquire as to whether or not a specific ordinance would be required permitting pull tabs. My review of the Municipal Code does not show that we have any ordinance prohibiting pull tabs on City property. If you are aware of any such provision, please let me know. If there is no existing City law prohibiting pull tabs, then it is not necessary to pass a specific ordinance allowing the pull tabs as they are permitted by State law. If you have any further questions, please let me know. Verx truly yours, • Lawrence 7 Warren LJW/jw cc: Mayor Shinpoch . . .

FONTES, ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY January 2, 1986 MARTHA A. FRENCH,ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY , TO: Robert L. Hufnagle, Recreation Superintendent FROM: Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney RE:i Pull Tabs at Maplewood Golf Course , Dear Bob: • By memo dated December 19 , 1985, you have asked me about the legality of permitting the operator at Maplewood Golf Course to operate a pull tab game. i I Pull tabs are authorized by RCW 9 .46 .010: , 1 "When conducted pursuant to the provisions of this c apter and any rules and regulations adopted pursuant thereto. " Later, RCW 9 .46 .030 authorizes: 1 • "pull tabs as a commercial stimulant when licensed ', and utilized or operated pursuant to the provisions of this Chapter and rules and regulations adopted I pursuant thereto. " I '1,do not have a copy of the rules and regulations of the Gambling Commission with respect to pull tabs, but those rules should be checked to determine whether or not there is any • specific language dealing with operation on golf courses or or , municipally owned property. 1 I also note that RCW 9 .46 .295 permits the City to prohibit all gambling activities within its boundaries. The City of Renton has nJot chosen to do so. As I see it, the issue reduces to that of whether or not th'e ' . City wishes its property utilized as a place where pull tab, gambling is [permitted. The Park Board rules and regulations should be „checked to see if that activity is not already prohibited. ' If not, then the Park Board should make a policy decision whether or not it wishes to permit pull tab gambling. I z,c64 i C\� Z!� ' Lawrence. J.• Warren I I LJW:nd .1 . cc: 'Maiyor ; , .
