1 Please Tell Us What You Think: Candidate Sites for Recreation Business Activities Background In January 2015, the Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission (Commission) approved some forms of privately financed development on State Parks land. One approved development type is known as a Recreation Business Activity (RBA). RBAs are privately financed recreation developments that are intended to provide amenities for park visitors while also generating revenue to support the state park system. RBAs are conditional activities in state park Recreation, Resource Recreation, and Heritage Areas, meaning they are only allowed in those areas when specifically approved by the Commission. Current state park recreational developments include campgrounds, picnic facilities, trails, cabins, vacation houses, dormitories, hostels, and even small resorts. All of these might also be appropriate for private development as an RBA, as would other facilities such as lodges or small hotels. A business consultant working with the agency believes that four kinds of RBAs are most likely to generate revenue for the state park system: Moorage facilities RV parks Groupings of vacation cottages and Food services Even so, other kinds of facilities are possible. It is not feasible to list every possible type of recreational activity that might be allowed in an RBA, and it probably would not be desirable to do so. Recreation trends change over time, and having a static list of approved development types would serve to stifle innovation. In March 2015, the Commission approved guidelines to allow RBAs that: 1
2 1. Are consistent with the State Parks mission, vision, and core values 2. Are consistent with the park s approved land classifications 3. Advance the agency s Transformation Strategy 4. Are consistent with grant funding restrictions that may apply to the park, or that are able to resolve inconsistencies with those restrictions 5. Are mutually beneficial to both State Parks and the project developer, in: a. Providing recreational benefits to park users b. Providing economic benefits to the state park system 6. Have a net positive impact on park operation 7. Provide activities that respond to recreation trends and help meet current and future recreation demands In addition to these guidelines, when the Commission approves RBAs as conditional activities in a park, it may also impose park-specific restrictions to ensure consistency with the park s design guidelines and operational needs. Such restrictions can include: 1. Building height limits 2. Development size limits 3. Building setbacks 4. Design standards (aesthetics, materials, lighting, etc.) 5. Resource stewardship requirements 6. Hours of operation 7. Restrictions on access to other park facilities Round 1 RBA Candidates With assistance from a consultant, State Parks has identified eleven candidate RBA sites that are believed to have high potential for revenue generation and low potential for negative impacts to the rest of the park. These eleven sites have also already gone through public planning processes that resulted in land classifications that conditionally allow RBAs. The candidate sites are: Crystal Springs (part of Iron Horse State Park Trail) Fort Columbia Historical State Park Fort Flagler Historical State Park Joseph Whidbey State Park Property Millersylvania State Park Packwood State Park Property Pearrygin Lake State Park Skating Lake State Park Property Squilchuck State Park Twenty-Five Mile Creek State Park Westhaven State Park/Westport Light State Park 2
3 State Parks is now seeking input on the potential use of these sites for RBAs, and the Commission will consider that input when it decides whether to approve RBAs in these sites. The following pages describe each site and its potential uses. Crystal Springs (Part of Iron Horse State Park Trail) Location: Kittitas County RBA Candidate Size: Approximately 59 of 80 total acres Site Description: The site is a former gravel pit that was closed prior to The site is located on the Stampede Pass Road on the south side of the Yakima River and I 90, approximately ½ mile due east of the Lake Kachess Dam.

The site is heavily used by winter recreation enthusiasts during winter months, but is closed the rest of the year. Land Classification: Recreation Area.

25 Next Steps The Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission will consider approving the first round of RBA candidates at its meeting on March 31, Your input will help them decide whether these sites are suitable for RBAs, and if they are, your input will help them adopt appropriate development restrictions for each site. If the Commission approves use of some sites as RBAs, State Parks will then solicit privatesector interest in those sites through a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) process. The agency anticipates moving forward with approximately two sites per year, but the number could be higher if there are private firms interested in developing RBAs on more than one property. In addition to the competitive RFP process, State Parks will accept and consider unsolicited applications for mission-aligned uses of approved RBA sites. What Do You Think? Before considering approving these sites for Recreation Business Activities, the State Parks and Recreation Commission would like to hear from the public. Questions for You Should any of the candidate sites be removed from consideration for RBA development? If so, why? Do you have other comments or concerns about any of the sites? What park-specific development restrictions should be adopted for each site? Please visit our website by January 31, 2016 to give us your thoughts. If you have questions, please contact Nikki Fields, Parks Planner, at or planning@parks.wa.gov. 25
