The City and the Olympic Soccer & Sports Center, LLC. developed this concession agreement that calls
for a term of 10 years plus three additional 10 year renewal options provided that the contract is in good
standing and that OSSC notifies the City as outlined in the agreement. Additionally, per Washington
State Law, the concession agreement reflects a proper reimbursement arrangement by which the City
Parks & Recreation Department has use of the facility for 182 hours per year. The scheduling &such
hours is outlined in the Agreement. The Agreement also calls for mutually agreed upon conditions for the
operations and maimenanee of the facilities.

which the City Parks & Recreation Department has use of the facility for 182 hours per year. The
scheduling of such hours is outlined in the Agreement. The Agreement also calls for mutually agreed
upon conditions for the operations and maintenance of the facilities.
The Parks & Recreation Department predicts that the year-around presence of this facility will draw
patrons to the park on a year-around basis. This is a positive impact to the regular operations at
Pendergast Regional Parks as it will increase security and usage of the park.
Additional maintenance or operation impacts at the park will be minimal.
