III. Programs and Marketing Report

Kalyn Kinomoto began by showing a PDA produced video on Market vendor Jim Chabot which has been viewed over 24,000 times since posted. It was boosted for a week on Facebook and was also posted on Twitter and Instagram. Kalyn continued with the Marketing report, noting the photoshoot with Barbie Hull, who really understands how to work with Market Vendors. The Market now has the full rights to over 700 photos from this shoot to use for a variety of uses. Betty Halfon asked if Barbie was paid for this work and if the Market and vendors have use of the photos. Kalyn responded yes to all. Colleen asked if Barbie is credited on the photos. Kalyn responded yes, the preferred credit is “Barbie Hull Photography for Pike Place Market PDA.”

Market Programs Committee Meeting Minutes

Social media promotions included Farmers Market opening week, Pike Box, and Flower Festival (10th annual). Metrics will be provided quarterly, with the next update in July. Kalyn shared the vegetable and fruit storage tips sheet that will be included in each Pike Box. Pike Box registration is currently at 230. Mark Brady asked how much each Pike Box costs as he feels businesses might be interested in purchasing them so shoppers can ship items home. Kalyn said she can research that. Betty Halfon likes the box because it is a fun way to learn about the Market. She also likes the storage tip sheet. Commercial filming’s included KPNX live morning news, Virgin Atlantic in-flight entertainment, King 5 coverage of farmer’s market opening day. There were 10 permitted film projects executed in May including BBC/Aer Lingus, Virgin Atlantic, Detroit Tigers, Tampa Rays, WWE, Deadliest Catch, Evening Magazine, King 5 Mornings, KHON Living 808 and North by Northwest. Notable press stories from May include King 5, KPNX, KOMO Radio, Seattle Magazine, and Seattle Times. There were six features and 16 mentions. Kalyn concluded by touching on a couple of the press features included in the packet. Scott Davies added there have been a number of articles quoting Market merchants after the tragic passing of Anthony Bourdain. Betty Halfon reminded the Committee that metrics will be reviewed once a quarter.

IV. Reports & Discussion Items

A. MarketFront Summer Calendar Mary Bacarella provided an introduction stating that today’s presentation is a quick review of the programs and a calendar for the summer and fall. Kalyn Kinomoto noted the goals included on the first slide are the same that have been in the plan since the beginning but have been tightened up. Each program’s purpose has the goal provided to help make it clearer. David Dickinson reviewed the Daystall craft demo program, which will kick off later in the summer and early fall when the crafters aren’t as busy. He’s working to have glass blowing demos, a kid’s toy making demo/workshop with hands on projects, and possibly some live painting in the north pavilion. The Guest Artisans Market already has five weeks scheduled and David will evaluate before scheduling more weekends. Seattle Made and Ventures have signed on and both have a lot of existing cross over with current Daystall vendors. There will be up to 10 tables in the north pavilion with assorted guest artisans with the hope of attracting some new recruits for the program while offering the local “I’ve seen it all” shoppers something different. Zack Cook recapped the Wednesday night “Meet the Producer” Pike Box pick-up programs which include a farmer, next Wednesday will feature a flower farmer, a Food Access tent coordinate by the Market Commons. The farmers will be scheduled several weeks out in order to ensure their product is ready. At noon EBT cards can be swiped and Pike Box pick-up goes from 2-6 pm.

Zack discussed the culinary pop-up weekends on Friday, Saturday and Sundays on the Plaza and will feature one food and one beverage vendor. These are current tenants who sell at remote Pike Place Farmers Markets and each will pay sales-based percentage rent, similar to commercial vendors. They have sourcing requirements and can’t have a brick-and-mortar shop anywhere else. These are all people interested in being future commercial tenants. Zack is scheduling these vendors one month out and will test out the program all summer. Patrice Barrentine suggested finding a way to tie in the Desimone Bridge to the story about Joe Desimone on the Pike Box, with the thought that the Desimone Bridge is the gateway to the Pike Box pickup on MarketFront. Colleen Bowman noted that in addition to tracking revenue she would like to hear about vendor experiences during the culinary pop-up weekends. Kalyn Kinomoto provided an update on the DSA Summer Sounds concerts taking place Wednesday evenings July 11-August 29. The concerts will take place at the bottom of the grand staircase on MarketFront and there is a good mix of performers. DSA has already started promotion. Kalyn reviewed the calendar of events noting it is color coded depending on the program. Pike Box pick-up will be filled in as farmers are lined up. This calendar will be updated as more information is provided and all this will be on the pikeplacemarket.org calendar of events. Paul Neal asked for information on the July 25th Market to MOHAI on MarketFront. Karin Moughamer responded it will feature a tent with information about Market to MOHAI as a way to raise awareness for the project. Paul continued by asking if there is energy to do more around this initiative. Karin responded with an overview of the project, noting the prototyping elements being installed in August for two weeks. Until the project is installed along the corridor there isn’t a lot planned but believes there will be opportunities for programming once it’s installed. Paul sees this as a positive initiative that is adjacent to the Market. Kalyn Kinomoto provided the Marketing and Communications plan which will be further developed over the coming months. It is color coded just like the calendar and anything in grey means that more than one program will be highlighted/featured. The influencer campaign is focused on Pike Box and each week a different social media influencer will receive a Pike Box and in return they will share their thoughts through their channel(s).This will give the Pike Box a lot of collateral for next year. Betty Halfon asked if the calendar will be on the website. Kalyn responded yes, but it won’t look like the one in the packet. Information will be listed under events and events will rotate onto the homepage. Mark Brady asked if there will be information on each of the DSA bands. Kalyn responded the plan is to take what the DSA has already prepared and provide information and links to each band.

Kalyn reviewed the last slide regarding program evaluation. There will be ongoing qualitative evaluation focused on if the programs reach one or more stated goals, if programs are a good use of inter-departmental staff time, and did program participants have concerns/comments. Financial evaluation will also be reviewed as well as an end-of-season evaluation. Paul Neal stated he understands why the goals aren’t quantifiable right now, but the way they are written they could be. He would like to see staff move towards that and create benchmarks.

B. Pike Place Market Education Program 2017-2018 Scott Davies shared the mission of the education program which teaches the next generation of Market stewards, caretakers and customers the value of community and commerce, entrepreneurship and history, all in a richly diverse downtown district. The program starts the second week of school in September with visits to classes to do interactive presentations with students. This year Scott visited Coe Elementary and Bertschi School, as well as others. Scott reviewed the history role play program that takes the class through the story of green beans in 1907 before the Pike Place Market, ending with why the Pike Place Market was created. Students also learn about current Market farmers and the farm program. Teachers can then use resource materials for three weeks prior to coming to the Market for a visit. In addition there are lesson plans on www.pikeplacemarket.org/education Scott continued by talking about what the classes experience when they come to the Market three weeks after their classroom lesson. Students visit various market vendors as well as iconic locations such as the Gum Wall and buskers. Also included are some behind the scenes visits to the security office and the walk-in refrigerator. Scott shared examples of the evaluations, letters, and pictures students send to him after the visits. If a specific vendor is noted, Scott shares that with the business. Scott reviewed a case study from the Bertschi School’s 2nd grade classes and the Market is an integral part of the social studies curriculum which says “Community is the focus for second graders, including thematic units such as Pike Place Market and forest explorers.” Classes connect with the Market throughout the school year, including the creation of a two-day mini-version of Pike Place Market which resulted in over $2,000 raised for the Market Foundation. Scott shared pictures from mini-markets at various schools, including Bertschi, SCDA, and the Bush School’s third grade market that learns about business plans, accounting, advertising and cash flow. Over the year 11 schools did food drives that collected a total of 3,722 pounds of food for Pike Place Food Bank. This resulted in a donation of $6,216 worth of food (according to Feeding America’s 2016 average value of $1.6 per pound.) In addition to elementary schools, Scott works to bring in high school jazz musicians to perform in the Atrium during the holiday season. During the school year, 110 classes were served (2,415 students), with 86 in-class presentations at 27 public schools and 20 private schools. The program is geared towards 2nd to 5th grades. Demand continues to exceed the number of available tour dates. Wait-list classes have first choice for next school year. Scott gets a lot of inquiries from schools other than elementary,

including an urban planning class at Seattle University. Program volunteers (18) donated a total of 767 hours that results in a monetary value of nearly $19,000. David Ghoddousi thanked Scott for doing a great job with the program for so many years. David also thanked all the volunteers for their contributions. Paul Neal asked if there is any preference given to private schools versus public schools or underserved communities over others. Scott responded he is mindful of it and pays attention to equity, however, it’s first come first serve and it’s a mix of the types of schools that get in line first. Scott tends to work with the same teachers year after year. Everyone is guaranteed an opportunity to participate and are entered onto a waitlist to be given first priority the following year. If a teacher doesn’t get into the program he recommends they still visit the Market and to create a program utilizing the scavenger hunt created by Seattle Public Library. Mary Bacarella asked how students get to the Market. Scott responded in a variety of ways, including light rail, parent drivers (private schools), school bus, and metro busses. Mary asked if it’s a struggle for any of these schools to get to the Market. Scott responded yes, sometimes it can be. In the past the PDA has subsidized transportation. Betty Halfon noted there is a lesson plan on line in case they can’t get their class to the Market. Betty noted the phenomenal program Scott manages and thanked him for his time.

V. Public Comment Jerry Baroh asked if Scott is involved in any of these school’s PTA programs. Scott responded he has seen more teachers arriving via school bus and that is a result of tapping into PTA funds.

VI. Concerns of Committee Members None.

Mary Bacarella fell in love with Pike Place Market in the 1980s when she arrived for a spring break vacation in Seattle and her partner drove her straight to Place Pigalle Restaurant.

She moved to Seattle and began working with Unexpected Productions and was the volunteer business manager for the group when it secured the lease for the Market Theater in the early 1990s. Audience members waiting to visit the theater created the famed Gum Wall, which Bacarella helped scrape off twice before the Pike Place Market Preservation and Development Authority decided it was just quirky enough to keep.

In January, Bacarella became executive director of the Pike Place Market PDA, which has grown to include roughly 500 residents and more than 500 independent businesses and 134 buskers.

She oversees more than 105 full-time employees and an operation that drew 15 million visitors last year and had $19.1 million in revenue.

Barcarella recently sat down with the Business Journal to discuss her new role, leadership and what’s next at the market.

What struck you about this position? After looking at my career and how I feel about the market, there really didn’t seem to be another job more perfect for me. Before the Space Needle, I worked at the PR firm Golin Harris and my major account was Nintendo, so yet another icon. Before that, I was at Muzak, which had purchased the local company Yesco. And of course the Seattle International Film Festival. So I’ve been with the icons of Seattle for a very long time.

As you get settled in, what are some of your goals for the market? Our city is changing. We really need to get the new Seattle to understand that their culture and their soul starts at the Pike Place Market.

How do you plan on getting that message out? It will be a number of things and it will be a holistic approach. I’m still really trying to figure out all the players and what that looks like.

What are you doing now? I’m on a listening tour. I’m listening to residents, business owners, artists, supporters, our foundation, the Friends of the Market who saved the market in the 1970s, the historic commission. I get to learn, I get to absorb and I get to appreciate.

Why is that the place to start? One of the biggest lessons that I’ve learned is you need to listen to people and reach out to people to get ideas, especially if you are new to a position. You may think you have the greatest idea and it will be the best thing for everyone involved, but you need to listen to other people. When you do that, I firmly believe it makes it a better project.

What is something that surprised you to learn about the market? I came down to the market once a week for 16 years. I came down to do the (Market Theater) box office or pay bills. When I was interviewing, I did not know all of the aspects of how the PDA supports small business, how the PDA supports low income housing and senior housing. We have a senior center, a medical clinic, a preschool, a food bank. It’s a small city within the city.

Where does the market fit into the discussions of a head tax and the homelessness crisis? Where I see the PDA fitting into is with all the services that we offer for the homeless or the low-income. Our senior center offers two meals a day to anyone that shows up, not just the people who live in the market. You can go to the Commons and they will direct you to different services. You can go to the clinic where there’s a sliding scale and they’ll take care of you there.

What excites you the most about running the market right now? We have so many projects happening around the market right now from the waterfront project to the Victor Steinbrueck Park renovation to the Pike Pine Renaissance, the Convention Center and others. What’s so exciting is that our new MarketFront that was launched last year is the first step in this undertaking and all of this is right at our doorstep teeing us up as we all move together toward the future. Couple this with the day-to-day management of our vibrant market community and working with the people who live and work here, I am so humbled that I get to be a part of this.

What do you see as the biggest challenge facing the market? In the near future one of the biggest ones is this construction going on on all sides of the market. It is an initial challenge with great results. We need to make sure people understand how to get to the market and how to park at the market. I take it very seriously because our small businesses here need people to come to the market.

What are you doing to prepare? I am having quite the fast-track education on these projects and a lot of my time is spent in meetings to keep current as changes and decisions are made. A number of these projects literally connect to the market, so we are part of the planning discussions as they relate to functionality and connectivity.

How would you describe your leadership style? I trust the people who work for me. To me, they are the experts in their job, that’s why they are there. I am there to help guide them. I am there to let them vent or bounce ideas off of. But I trust them to do their job.

What art has had the biggest impact on you? Truman Capote’s story, “A Christmas Memory,” has stayed with me my entire life. I read it first when I was in the fourth grade and I have read it every Christmas season since. He is the ultimate storyteller.

Who would you invite to your ideal dinner party? Table for eight, all great storytellers: Studs Terkel, Peter O’Toole, Truman Capote, Samantha Bee, Patti Smith, Aretha Franklin, Randy Newman and me.

Mary Bacarella

Title: Executive director of the Pike Place Market Preservation and Development Authority

Career: Bacarella has served as managing director for SIFF and the Space Needle’s vice president of brand management. She was the driving force behind the creation of the Chihuly Garden and Glass at Seattle Center. At public relations firm Golin Harris, her chief client was Nintendo.

Family: In Seattle she has two grandsons, Creigh and Joey, and their parents, Kerry and Mark. The rest of the family is in Michigan.

Rough start: “On the second day of the job, I fell down stairs in the market. I broke my kneecap and strained my shoulder, so for the first 10 weeks, I took Uber or a taxi. I’ve been driving lately but as soon as physical therapy is over, I’m looking forward to walking to work.”

Reading list: “I’m currently reading Barbara Ehrenreich’s ‘Natural Causes: An Epidemic of Wellness, The Certainty of Dying, and Killing Ourselves to Live Longer.’ My reading tastes lean toward non-fiction.”

To Members of the Daystall Community

The following pages include an overview of initial PDA staff comments on the renewal of the Hildt Agreement. There are three sections – a brief history of the Agreement, a list our observations concerning how the Agreement has functioned in the last 10 years and a short summary of proposed updates to the agreement we believe are necessary in the context of how the Market has evolved and changed in the last 40 years.

In the beginning, the Hildt came about in large part because members of the craft community felt that their presence in the Market wasn’t secure. From that time until today, the daystall community, especially that of arts and crafts, has evolved and become recognized as a core part of the Pike Place Market. The daystall vendors, farmers, artists and crafters are highly valued and important and the PDA has worked with you to provide collaboration and support to assure a healthy daystall program. In addition to active recruitment of new vendors and incubation of new businesses, we have increased active marketing efforts, provided frequent business improvement resources and in many other ways expressed our commitment to the daystalls. We welcome your participation in working with us to assure that these efforts continue to evolve to an even more vital and prosperous future for the craft program and the Pike Place Market as a whole. SCHEDULE

We will reconvene a community meeting on June 21, at 5 pm, in the Economy Market Classroom to discuss this report and hear your comments. Written comments will be accepted through July 10, 2018. You may submit comment via email by sending to davidd@pikeplacemarket.org. The current term of the Agreement expires in April 2019. The PDA report and recommendation is to be submitted to the Seattle City Council in October, 2018. The PDA is now preparing initial comments concerning the effectiveness of the agreement. At this stage the PDA staff has begun the process of accepting community comment. In anticipation that the PDA Council will again renew the agreement, the PDA staff offers the

following comments and suggestions for updating the Hildt-Licata to reflect current circumstances. BACKGROUND OF THE HILDT LICATA AGREEMENT For the first 75 years, the daystalls and farm tables of Pike Place Market were governed by the City of Seattle. Rules and rates were set by City Council. When the market properties were transferred to the PDA in the early 1980’s the PDA and City of Seattle agreed to an outline for continued operation of the market daystalls, to assure the community of farm and craft vendors that policies and procedures for operation of the daystalls would continue. City Councilmember Michael Hildt signed the original 10 year agreement on behalf of the City. The agreement was renewed 10 years later with the guidance of City Council member Nick Licata. At that time a provision was added to encourage farm vendors to sell perishable fruit and vegetables. The Agreement is commonly referred to as the “Hildt Licata” Among the key provisions of the Agreement are:

• The establishment of standard daystall dimensions and rates for all daystalls. • A limitation of use of daystall selling space to permitted producers (farmers, artists,

craft persons) with the exception of a specific list of grandfathered vendors. • Confirmation that a substantial portion of the daystalls would always be available

for arts and crafts. • Creation of two zones – one where farmers had first choice of tables and one for

arts and crafts • Provision for the PDA to oversee the use of public rights of way by performers. • A method for members of the public to voice concerns and objections to PDA

actions. • The assignment of responsibility to the PDA for creating rules and regulations. • A requirement that the rules be open to comment annually and a further

requirement that the Market Historical Commission be consulted on any proposal to change key definitions.

• A review of the effectiveness of the agreement at the end of the 10 year term.

INITIAL COMMENTS CONCERNING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE AGREEMENT

1. The standards established by the Agreement have been beneficial to the Market. The Agreement provides a stable framework for operation and management of the Market daystalls and is worth continuation. The artists and craft presence as a key component of the Pike Place Market is secure.

2. The Pike Place Market remains the longest operating Farmers Market operation in Seattle but is no longer the only one. The types of products sold direct from the farm were formerly bulk displays of vegetables, fruit and perishable food items. It has proven increasingly difficult to sustain farmers with fresh food, and most farm

Page | 3

products now sold at the Pike Place Market are cut flowers, fruits, berries and value added food items, many of which are non-perishable. The preference given to farmers for the sale of perishable agricultural products made from what they grow and harvest should remain.

3. The Pike Place Market remains the only year round Arts and Crafts market focused on the “Meet the Producer” concept. The rules concerning permitted craft production require hand-crafted production processes and individual creativity of the vendor. These rules make the Pike Place Market distinctive from many other venues. The Agreement can be enhanced by adding a statement in support of the strengthening of this program through recruitment of new vendors and encouraging the continuing growth, innovation and creative development of vendors who have established seniority.

4. The annual process for rules review and amendment has provided the opportunity to keep the rules relevant, to respond to changing circumstances and to tailor policies to ensure mutual coordination of the needs for the Market and its vendors. The annual public comment period and calendar for adopting changes effective April of each year should remain at April 1st of each year and should continue.

5. The original Agreement applied to the historical daystall areas of the main market buildings (Second and Third sections) on the west side of Pike Place, the covered North Arcade, the Desimone Bridge and the outside slabs north and west on Pike Place. At the time the Market was closed on Sundays or holidays. Today these areas remain in daystall use and are operated as such 363 days a year according to the Daystall Rules.

6. The original agreement provided that any other selling space rented by the day from the PDA would be subject the daystall rules. This was applied to the expansion of permanent tables in the Desimone Bridge when covered and some table spaces created in reconfigurations of the North Area. There are now 192 nominal 4 foot daystall spaces in this area plus 25 outside slab; 120 in farm priority areas, 70 in craft priority.

7. Since adoption of the original Agreement the PDA has managed and developed programs which involve use of other areas of the Market, primarily on the street surface of Pike Place, for related programming, such as Flower Festival and the Evening Farmers Market. Opportunities for this type of programming is not practical within the areas covered by the daystall rules.

8. Overflow and supplemental day vendor space outside the historic daystall areas is qualitatively different from the historic spaces. When these areas are NOT used for overflow, some flexibility is warranted in defining the standard size of selling space, selection of vendors and appropriate rental rates.

Page | 4

9. In 2017, the amount of space available for creative mixed use programming was increased with the Pavilion and Plaza spaces in the MarketFront. This space is intended to provide flexibility and to facilitate different uses. Such programs can include on-site craft demonstrations, specialty groupings of holiday themed merchandise, craft specific groupings (i.e., pottery, watercolor, jewelry), broader use by other organizations and communities of Seattle involving the other arts and crafts, dance, music, artisanal food, performance, community celebrations, private functions and so on. Flexibility in the programmatic use of these public areas is critical to the future vitality of the Market and its ability to remain an interesting destination that engages people of all backgrounds. Such programming should reflect and correspond to the primary purposes of the Market Charter.

10. The manner and method for management of the public streets for performer activity has worked well and accommodates up to 400 different permitted performers during the course of a year. Established rules are effective in minimizing conflicts among different performers, adjacent commercial activity and residential areas.

11. In recent years there has been an increase in the number and volume of guided walking tours in the Historical District. The PDA has adopted rules and procedures to minimize the negative impacts such activities have on other uses within PDA owned properties and has added to the Daystall rules a new section concerning this activity.

12. The PDA has developed established rules and procedures as a public organization and established clear procedures for handling and responding to community concerns. The PDA Council has established rules for public meeting, public discussion and public comment periods which are provided at all meetings. Community concerns are now as likely, if not more so, to be submitted through e mail and internet services as much as in person. The PDA front desk, PDA security and the Market Information Booth are some of the different venues for receiving public comment as well.

13. The PDA has established its own set of procedures for addressing appeals of administrative decision, leading when appropriate to the PDA Council. The Agreement should be updated to reflect these procedures, remove confusing or redundant language and simplify a fair and speedy process for administrative appeals.

FIRST DRAFT SUGGESTIONS FOR AMMENDMENTS TO AGREEMENT 1. Insert in the preface a statement reinforcing the identity of the historical

market daystalls as a unique public resource, essential to the character and identity of the Pike Place Market and the focus on the sale of products direct to consumer by the producer,

Page | 5

2. Amplify the definition of business incubation and seniority benefits as means to promote the innovation and development of skills and quality of products and services offered at the Market.

3. Retain the definition of farm and craft priority tables and related aspects of the Agreement pertaining to the historical arcade areas.

4. Retain the nominal 4 ft definition of table spaces (two tables for farmers) as a minimum in case of high demand.

5. Provide for an option for the PDA to restrict vendors of non-perishable farm products to a single table (rather than standard double table) to minimize turn-aways at any time of the year, (currently, just holiday periods)

6. Identify the MarketFront South Pavilion as general community space, which uses includes craft daystalls especially when needed for overflow.

7. Identify the Market Plaza and North Pavilion areas as community access areas suitable for special events, thematic festivals, artisan demonstrations (food and craft), guest vendors, specialty food events, holiday-themed activities and other innovative programming to enrich the customer experience, bring new ideas, activities and shoppers to the Market and to re-inforce the traditional uses of the Market.

8. Remove the requirement of a physical “Concerns and Information Office”

9. Simplify references to appeals by referring to the rules and regulations of the Authority (similar to definitions of Farmer, Arts and Craft Vendor, Performer, Permitted Merchandise, etc.).

I look forward to continuing the discussion and hope to see you on June 21st. Thank you,

Mary Bacarella Executive Director Pike Place Market

“The things I learn in these workshops do stick in the back of my mind and percolate over the course

of weeks & months. The most recent workshop that I attended was ‘Selling without Selling’ with

Marlo Miyashiro. I will be developing more inviting & engaging signage, thinking of ways to

incorporate movement into my display, and poking around on the display supply websites suggested

by Marlo.” ~ Stephanie Shull, Pike Place Pigs, daystall craftsperson

“Any extra dollar helps. We are always working on farm improvement projects and trying to

figure out ways to add on to what we’re already doing, so the irrigation projects fit in well with

other things happening on the farm. The grant money was especially helpful because it has

been so hot this year and extra irrigation is really needed.” ~ Neng Xiong, on his Humanlinks

Foundation grant which Market staffed helped facilitate

“As a first generation business owner, I have had to learn everything from scratch, and as we grow, the economic consequences of trial and error get bigger and bigger. I'd love to have an experienced business person to help me think through my long terms plans and strategize on the best way to achieve them. The content areas would include topic like Ecommerce, Wholesale, Franchising and overall brand development.” ~ Louie Gong, Eighth Generation, commercial business owner
