The Master Plan is one of several related efforts led by the City of Pasco to improve )owntown and reflects )owntownѣs MigM Uriority witMin tMe community. The Master Plan addresses many of the ingredients needed for a successful Downtown including the design and management of streets and public spaces, enhancing public safety, diversifying the businesses and activities in Downtown, maintaining quality downtown management, and supporting private sector investment such as improving the development code and offering incentives. 9Me strategies and actions are sUecific to tMe conditions in Downtown Pasco and the desires of the community that were expressed during engagement activities. To some extent the bulk of the effort to improve Downtown begins with the adoption of the plan and adhering to the implementation plan and monitoring. While the plan was developed and led through the City of Pasco the implementation of the plan will require close collaboration between the City and community partners to achieve success. It is an exciting time for Downtown Pasco and the community to be able to achieve their vision and goals.

A downtown plan addresses many of the ingredients for a thriving downtown at a strategic level. Many of the topics will require further planning, design, and public engagement to move forward the strategies and actions in the plan. The downtown plan is intended to support further planning and design efforts to improve downtown but does not completely replace them. Some of the strategies and actions in the plan may be modified dZring imUQementation Gased on new information UZGQic inUZt fZnding considerations, and community resources while maintaining consistency with the plan vision and goals. INTRODUCTION + BACKGROUND _ 21 BUSINESSES IN DOWNTOWN PASCO FIERY FOODS FESTIVAL, PASCO, WA DOWNTOWN PASCO TODAY Pasco is a rapidly growing city with a population of 80,180 as of April 2022 and may soon exceed Kennewick (85,320) to be the largest City in the Tri-Cities. Pasco had a population of 32,066 in 2000 representing an average annual growth rate of 7%. Most of the City’s growth has occurred outside of Downtown, but the greater population provides a larger market potential for the Downtown economy. The City is majority Hispanic and Latino, at 55.5%, followed by White, at 38.1%. The majority Hispanic and 1atino UoUZQation is reflected in tMe cZQtZre of Downtown including many of the local businesses and festivals that are Downtown’s strongest assets. _JANUARY 2023 22 DOWNTOWN PASCO MASTER PLAN FINDINGS 9Me foQQowing are tMe findings from tMe *]isting Conditions Report in April 2022. DEMOGRAPHICS AND GROWTH Pasco is growing rapidly, and current growth trends present an opportunity to support the planning goals for Downtown. Pasco is a majority Hispanic and Latino community. The strong presence of Hispanic and Latino culture and business Downtown is an asset for Pasco. REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT 3ew de[eQoUment is not QiPeQy to Ge financiaQQy feasible in Downtown Pasco based on current construction costs and rents. However, vacancies remain low, and rents are increasing due to the demand for commercial space. Adaptive reuse of existing buildings is more likely to be feasible in the near-term future, but there are challenges related to building codes that must be addressed. DOWNTOWN MANAGEMENT The Downtown Pasco Development Authority (DPDA) and the Main Street Organization should be distinct organizations with separate governing boards and committees to support implementation of the Downtown Plan and effective Downtown management over the near- and long-term.

At present, most of Downtown lacks its own sUecific _oning districts tMat meet its unique character and needs. Instead, most of Downtown reuses codes designed for elsewhere in the City. Creating unique zoning codes for Downtown will help it thrive by protecting its assets and leveraging them.

For example, are employees parking Downtown in time-limited on-street parking? Are there better options that could be provided for employees, to make visitor and customer parking more accessible? PUBLIC SAFETY Many Pasco residents expressed that public safety is one of their major concerns, and Downtown suffers from the perception that Downtown Pasco is not safe and lacks a variety of business types and activities to draw people. The business community has expressed the need to address public safety and homelessness before Downtown can be viewed as more of a success. “...the outside seating shall not reduce usable sidewalk width to less than six feet.” Municipal Code 5.50.050: Sidewalk Seating Existing sidewalks on Lewis Street are 14.5 ft in width and could accommodate outdoor seating under current municipal code.Outside Dining ZonePedestrian Zone14.5 ft 4.5 ft 10 ft Outdoor Seating on Lewis Street.

Pasco’s people live and work in Downtown, they own and patronize businesses, gather for events, use local services; they walk, bicycle, and drive to and through Downtown. Our city contains tree-lined streets with well-maintained and identifiable neighborhoods interspersed with parks and schools. ---- Pasco Comprehensive Plan, The Pasco Vision for 2038 With a strong Hispanic cultural heritage and tradition and a majority population – Pasco plans to embrace and capitalize on this unique asset: Downtown character and signage.  5asco (omUreMensi[e 5Qan *conomic )e[eQoUment *Qement With a majority-Hispanic population, Downtown has a concentration of retail that serves the community, including taquerias, markets, dress shops, soccer equipment, foods, and event locations. Bakeries and the Farmers Market draw people from throughout the region. Downtown also has numerous auto- repair shops and services. Public input expressed a strong desire for additional uses in Downtown such as coffee shops, a wider range of restaurants and retail, and more activities. Recent code changes have made nightlife uses possible that had been previously restricted. Downtown’s Main Street character, scale, and history are among Pasco’s key assets. The master plan should help Pasco highlight these assets in the reinvigoration of Downtown. The physical and social characteristics of the public spaces, especially sidewalks and Downtown parks, are important to the ability of Downtown to welcome visitors, support businesses, and improve the quality of life in the heart of Pasco for residents and visitors.

For example, the Fiery Foods Festival focuses on Pasco’s Mexican-American heritage, but also highlights other international examples of spicy food from around Latin America and Asia. The renovated Peanuts Park will offer a signature location for festivals in Downtown. INTRODUCTION + BACKGROUND _ 29 ARTS AND CULTURE CONTINUED )owntown 5asco woZQd Genefit from a stronger presence of art and additional cultural activity. Pasco once had theaters that served as centers of entertainment and civic gathering, such as Pasco’s Liberty Theater, Sarah LeCompte, and Franklin County Historic Society. Although times have changed, the Liberty theater building remains on Lewis Street as an opportunity to provide a home for current cultural activities. Signage and murals are regulated in Downtown Pasco (Pasco Municipal Code 17.15.10), limiting an option for artistic and cultural expression that has been very successful in other cities, notably Toppenish, WA.. The city is updating the sign code and the murals restriction will be addressed there. MURALS WITNESS A CITY’S HISTORIES AND PROVIDE VIBRANCY TO THE DOWNTOWN FABRIC _JANUARY 2023 30 DOWNTOWN PASCO MASTER PLAN PLANNING CONTEXT Downtown Pasco physically delineates itself with a noticeable street grid rotation to the east and west. The rotation responds to the railroad line that parallels Downtown. This shift can make locating the downtown challenging when compared to the City’s typical street grid orientation. 4th Avenue and W. Lewis Street are two principal arterials that bring people to and from the Downtown. The Downtown Core is at the intersection of these two arterials, forming an orienting nexus of activity. The Lewis Street Bridge Overpass project forms an enhanced connection to the east. How the volume of traffic coming from tMe o[erUass is integrated into the Downtown fabric will be of vital importance to the Downtown’s development. Overall the dense street grid is one of Downtown’s strong assets provide access to local businesses, on-street parking and loading, public space, and opportunities for social interaction and community-building.

THE PLANNING PROCESS: WHAT WE HEARD Having the voice of the community lead the downtown development plan is crucial to its success. Throughout the planning process, input was sought through a multitude of channels. Booths at community events like the Farmers Market and Cinco de Mayo Festival informed community members of the plan and invited their insights on strengthening Downtown Pasco. Visioning workshops for the General Downtown as well as Lewis Street were conducted with live polling, small group design exercises, and discussion. A presentation was made to City Council updating them on the status of the project and answering questions. An online survey soliciting residents opinions on the challenges and opportunities present in the Downtown was posted on the City’s website. Stakeholder meetings were also held to hear from the community. Finally, an open house will be held to gain feedback on this initial draft of the plan. MORE THINGS TO DO DOWNTOWN Workshop participants would like to see more variety in the types of Downtown businesses and expressed interest in businesses like coffee shops, restaurants, bookstores, and gyms. They noted that remodeling and updating buildings would allow for more diverse uses. ACTIVATION Workshop participants supported activating Downtown through activities and amenities like public art and murals, outdoor dining, food trucks, cultural events, family-friendly activities, markets, landscaping, and seating. STREETSCAPES Participants would like to see the streetscapes in Downtown improved through the addition of elements like lighting, parklets, and improved building facades.

The workshop was attended by 34 people. It included a presentation from Framework, the lead consultants on the Downtown Plan, followed by live polling and a design exercise in small groups. The presentation described goals for both the workshop and Lewis Street. Framework provided an overview of existing conditions on Lewis Street, as well as examples of outdoor seating opportunities and other pedestrian oriented streets whose layout could be adopted for Lewis Street. Following the design exercise, each group shared the results including assets, challenges, and images that reflect wMat tMey woZQd QiPe to see on 1ewis Street LEWIS STREET WORKSHOP DRAFTVISION- 37 ENGAGEMENT_ 37 WORKSHOP GOALS 1.

DTM Robust and Collaborative Downtown Management DESCRIPTION GOAL The City is fortunate to have the DPDA as a partner and should continue working with the DPDA to strengthen its role as both a PDA and as Downtown Pasco’s downtown management organization.

The DPDA has capabilities under state law that are not typically available to a downtown organization, such as real estate development and managing cultural facilities, which are not currently being used. The DPDA and the Main Street Organization are currently operating with a single board that oversees both the operations of the DPDA and main street organization.

STRATEGY: DESCRIPTION: DOWNTOWN PASCO DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY LED BANNERS DOWNTOWN PASCO DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY CO-CREATED THE SPECIALTY KITCHEN PLAN _ 79 Public Development Authorities (PDAs) are entities authorized under Washington State Law (RCW 35.21.730-.759) that have powerful capabilities. They are semi-governmental bodies, under the auspices of a City, County, or the State, and in the case of Pasco’s PDA, under the authority of the City of Pasco. PDAs may construct and manage properties, receive properties from government agencies, be given tax-deductible contributions by individuals, and many other powers per their charter. They are governed by a Board of Directors, selected by a process outlined in their charter, and may have a “constituency” of the public that participates in the activities and decision-making of the PDA. Some well-known PDAs in the State include Seattle’s Pike Place Market and King County’s 4Culture, which distributes funding to artists and cultural organizations. Downtown Pasco’s PDA manages the Farmers Market, which runs weekly from May to October, holds other events, and serves as the downtown organization for Pasco. The Downtown Plan encourages the PDA to strengthen and expand its role in Pasco, taking advantage of the powers granted by the State to make desired improvements in the Downtown. The PDA could take a lead role in activating public space, including Peanuts Park, in managing cultural space (such as a renovation of the historic theater), and even in developing and managing affordable housing on catalyst sites. The development of a new strategic UQan woZQd Uro[ide an oUUortZnity to define and expand the role of the PDA to further the vision and goals for Downtown.

The City currently responsible for managing on-street parking such as time limits, enforcement, street maintenance, and monitoring conditions. The City recently completed a parking study of Many downtowns, typically through a partnership between the City and the downtown organization, have established successful employee parking programs. Employee parking programs provide more predictability to employees, can make use of parking that is underutilized, and prioritize safe locations and routes in downtown between parking and places of employment. Employee parking could be implemented with parking permits downtown that always showed wide availability of on-street parking in the heart of downtown. However, the data collection was limited to two days on a weekday and Saturday. The study looked primarily at parking occupancy and did not address other common downtown parking challenges such as employees parking in on-street stalls more than the time limits. On- street parking is the most highly sought-after and valuable parking in downtowns and should be prioritized for convenient customer and visitor access with long-term parking such as for employees occurring in off-street parking or streets with less activity and demand for parking. for either on- or off-street locations. The redevelopment of the former Thunderbird Motel could provide new off-street parking for an employee parking program. The City and/or the DPDA should conduct a survey of existing businesses to determine where their employees currently park and if there is interest in participating in a downtown employee parking program. DTM3.0 JANUARY 2023 82 DOWNTOWN PASCO MASTER PLAN GOAL:Robust and Collaborative Downtown Management Establish and Maintain Active Parking Management Parking Data Collection Program STRATEGY: ACTION: DESCRIPTION: DTM 3.2 Parking management decisions in Downtown Pasco should be informed by the routine collection of parking data with a focus on public on-street parking. Collecting and analyzing parking data will inform tMe de[eQoUment and modification of parking management strategies over time to imUro[e efficiency and a[oid conflicts Getween different Zsers of parking. Parking occupancy counts should be conducted on-street and in One of the primary goals for a downtown parking management program is to provide easy access to Downtown, including local businesses, residences, places of employment, civic, and cultural uses. For example, Downtown on-street parking often sets time limits on parking stalls, encouraging turnover so that more people can access downtown, GOAL:Robust and Collaborative Downtown Management Establish and Maintain Active Parking Management Parking enforcement program STRATEGY: ACTION: DESCRIPTION: DTM 3.3 public parking lots in the Downtown core at least quarterly. As needed, parking duration, the parking violation rate, turnover, and vehicle movements could also be collected. For example, on-street parking is typically more complex to manage and requires more detailed data collection such as duration and turnover of vehicles. This data can assist in understanding current parking behavior and adjusting management strategies to achieve desired outcomes. In this example, a parking management strategy would be to develop convenient off-street employee parking that is well-lit, affordable, and feels safe. supporting the local economy. Challenges arise when there is a conflict Getween UarPing Zsers 9Mis can make access to Downtown more limited and less attractive. The goal of an enforcement program is to ensure that the parking policies and management strategies are producing the desired results. It is not to issue fines and generate re[enZe e[en though these strategies are included in most enforcement programs. Parking enforcement should be informed by the parking data collection program to focus on high demand areas where parking challenges are more likely to occur. The enforcement program should also include education and resources about where to park for different users such as visitors, downtown employees, and downtown residents.

These businesses should be supported by the City and the DPDA while also working to attract new businesses that are desired by the community including a coffee shop, more restaurants with outdoor dining, and more businesses that have things to do.

The City can capitalize on this success to expand events and bring more people to Downtown Pasco. GOAL:Robust and Collaborative Downtown Management More events Downtown Develop an Annual Events Plan for Downtown STRATEGY: ACTION: DESCRIPTION: DTM 5.1 The City and the DPDA should partner on developing an Annual Events Plan for Downtown that increases the number of events and expands their scope. The events plan may include both events led by the City/DPDA but also a program to allow other businesses or organizations to hold events in Downtown such as at Peanuts Park. Fees for event permits and revenue generated during events could help to support ongoing downtown management activities. Events could also include a fundraising component through the sale of merchandise and donations.

MAKING IT HAPPEN For the Downtown Master Plan to be realized it must be implemented through sustained effort by the City of Pasco, the DPDA, and partnerships with the private sector and in particular local businesses. The Downtown Master Plan is intended to establish an ongoing implementation that capitalizes on local funding and resources, outside grant opportunities, and maximizes local assets such as small businesses that make Downtown a place people want to be. Future updates to the Master Plan will likely result in new strategies and actions that will also need to be implemented and the work to maintain and improve Downtown will continue as new challenges and opportunities arise.
