INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM

TO: ROBERT A ZIENKOWSKI, TOWNSHIP MANAGER



FROM: WIllIAM M WHITE, FINANCE DIRECTOR

SUBJECT: AIS AGREEMENT & SUPPORTING INFORMATION REQUESTED

DATE:

CC:

5/3/2011

TAMMY COHEN, INTERIM PARKS & RECREATION DIRECTOR WILLIAM MARTIN, ASSISTANT TOWNSHIP .MANAGER

Finance Department

This memorandum is meant to cover the attached information relative to the proposed agreement between the Township and Agnes Irwin School (AIS) for the improvements and rental [of certain times] at Radnor Memorial Park.

As requested, this information packet includes the following items:

• Tri-Party Agreement Input

• Schedule of Daylight Hours for Available Use

• Schedule of 2010 Field Usage (by user group)

• Schedule of Township Maintenance Costs at Radnor Memorial Park

• Schedule of Township investment improvements made at Radnor Memorial Park

Tri-Party Entities Input:

As you know, the Township entered into a tri-party agreement with the Radnor Township School District and Radnor Center Associates (now Brandywine Realty Trust) with regard to the area which includes Radnor Memorial Park. Therefore, as part of the diligence of negotiating the agreement with AIS, the Township met with representatives from both of the other entities of the tri-party agreement. Attached is a letter from Brandywine Realty Trust that supports the compliance of the proposed AIS agreement with the tri-party agreement. Their letter also details various other items they would like considered and resolved if the agreement with AIS is pursued. Then, according to the Solicitor, he met with the Radnor Township School District attorney who didn't object to the legality of the proposed agreement with AIS, but wanted to be sure that there was sufficient parking when the schools want it.

Schedule of Daylight Hours for Available Use:

Much of the discussion that has surrounded the proposed agreement is the sense of "giving away" public land / park space. Therefore, we compiled the total number of available daylight hours throughout the year and applied various usage allocations against it. The purpose of the analysis is to determine exactly how much time the field is available for use versus how much time it will be obligated under the agreement. Please see the Summary Schedule of Hourly Usage at Memorial Field for detailed information.

To summarize the data, in total, there are 4,384 daylight hours in a given year (Source: http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/RS_OneYear.php). The total number of daylight hours was further reduced to account for the time when kids are in school. It's important to note that the field would be available for public use while kids are in school but we wanted to include this in the analysis since an argument was made that it should be considered. The proposed agreement would allow AIS to rent approximately 22% of total daylight hour usage (annual). If you factor the amount of time that kids spend in school, that percentage grows to approximately 31 %. During the prime usage months (spring and summer months), the percentages are between 18%-32% of total daylight hours or 23%-35% of net available daylight hours after school time is factored in. Further, currently Radnor Memorial Field is rented out for exclusive use by various organizations approximately 14% of the total daylight time, or 19% of the net available time when the time that kids spend in school is factored in.

Finally, a graphical illustration of the available usage time is attached to the summary schedule.

The graph shows the number of daylight hours that Radnor Memorial Park would be available for public use (or permitted use by other organizations), net of the number of hours kids spend in school (represented by the area shaded in green). Then, the amount of rental time called for in the proposed agreement by AIS is shown (represented by the area shaded in red).

Other important timing notes: (1) During certain times in the summer months, the field will be rented by AIS and other organizations at the same time (shared field use). These times are not reflected in the graph and actually add hours of available use during those months. (2) Also, AIS would rent the field from 3:00PM to 6:00PM which is generally before the other sports organizations who currently rent the field (Radnor Wayne Little League, Radnor Soccer, etc.).

Schedule of 2010 Field Usage (by user group):

Another item that has surfaced during these discussions is the issue of who is currently using the fields and for how long. Therefore, the Parks & Recreation Department prepared the attached 2010 Outline of Fields / Users. The matrix shows, by season, the various organizations' use of fields around the Township (both the Township's and School District's fields). The following table summarizes the users of use of the 22 various parks / fields and the total number of 2010 hours:

Users # of Hours

Township Programs 575.50
Radnor Girls Lacrosse & Scoop 250.00
Radnor Boys Lacrosse 673.00
Radnor Wayne Little League 2,101.00
Radnor Soccer Club 1,435.00
St. Katharines 899.00
Agnes Irwin 186.75
Country Day School of the Heart 62.00
RHS - Ultimate Frisbee 370.00
RMS - Baseball 128.00
RMS - Soccer 160.00
JR/SR ... Baseball 237.00
Men's Baseball 21.00
Adult Softball 328.00 2

Schedule of Township Maintenance Costs at Radnor Memorial Park:

The Township also wanted to gain a better understanding of the amount of time and materials it takes to maintain Radnor Memorial Park and the Field. Therefore, after discussion with the Public Works Department, attached is the Schedule of Direct Costs for Maintaining Radnor Memorial Park for 2011 (budgeted). To summarize the data, the Township spends approximately 3% of their time at the Park and approximately 1% of their time on the field which equates to $53,372 and $21,059, respectively.

If the AIS agreement were to be approved, in addition to the physical improvements to the field, the amount of time currently spent on the field maintaining it, would be reallocated to other areas of the Township. We are not showing these dollars in terms of savings because it is our opinion that there are other priorities around the Township that these resources could be directed to.

Schedule of Township investment improvements made at Radnor Memorial Park:

As previously requested by the Board, included in this material is the memorandum dated March 28, 2011 tided Memorial Field Investments. The information includes a summary memo along with a detailed accounting of the transactions for the Radnor Memorial Field improvements. The following Table represents the total investments (pulled from the 3/28/2011 memo):

TRI-PARTY AGREEMENT ITEM

Mr. Zienkowski April 26, 2011

Based on our meeting and review of the AIS Lease, Brandywine believes that the AIS Lease does not violate the provisions of the Declaration and supports AIS' use of the Park Property as provided in the AIS Lease. Notwithstanding Brandywine's general endorsement of the proposed AIS Lease, Brandywine would like the issues raised in this letter to be addressed and responded to prior to a final approval of the AIS Lease by the Radnor Board of Commissioners.

1. Traffic Congestion and Safety at 4-way Intersection of Centennial

Drive and Matsonford Road. Brandywine owns, operates and manages Radnor Corporate Center ("RCC") consisting of five (5) class A office buildings, surface and structured parking, landscaping (including hard-scape and plantings) and Centennial Drive, the perimeter road that serves RCC, the Radnor Township Elementary School and the Township Satellite Parking Lot and connects with Matsonford Road at two (2) intersections. Understandably, access and egress from RCC during typical rush-hour times is of concern to Brandywine and its tenants. With the current traffic volume, the four-way intersection (further west on Matsonford Road towards King of Prussia Road) of Matsonford and Centennial Drive is congested and experiences large traffic volume at morning and evening rush hour which includes congestion associated with significant school traffic using Matsonford Road. It is this intersection that provides access / egress to Arch Bishop Carroll High School and the Park Parcel on the south side of Matsonford Road as well as the Radnor Township Elementary School on the north side. Brandywine would like to know how you plan on mitigating the increased traffic that will be associated with the AIS Lease as well as the anticipated increased usage of the Park Property by Radnor after the AIS Lease improvements are constructed. Improvements to traffic signalization (specifically turn lanes or turn delays) and/or Radnor Police traffic patrols during peak traffic times should be part of this discussion.

2. Security at RCC during Weekends and Holidays. Brandywine

currently provides for security patrols of RCC including the parking lots and structured parking garages during the weekdays between the hours of 4 pm and mid-night. Based on the assumption that the Park Property will be used more frequently on weekends and holidays after the AIS improvements are constructed, Brandywine has concerns related to security on weekends and holidays. Brandywine suggests regularly scheduled patrols of the RCC campus, perhaps hourly, by the Radnor Township Police during activities sponsored at the Park Property whether such activities are sponsored by AIS,

2

Mr. Zienkowskl April 26, 2011

Radnor or approved by Radnor, especially during days and/or times that Brandywine does not have a security patrol in place. In the event that the parking for activities sponsored on the Park Property utilizes the Township Satellite Parking Parcel, patrols should include this portion of RCC as well.

3. Lighting and Related Recreational Amenities. The section of the AIS Lease that relates to Related Recreational Amenities refers to field lighting specifications that meet "Recommended Practices for Sports and Recreational Area Lighting" and the installation of a scoreboard. Brandywine, while not familiar with sports and recreational lighting requirements, is aware that lighting can present challenges to neighboring buildings and properties. Brandywine would like an opportunity to review and gain a better understanding of the lighting plan as it is finalized and would request that Radnor and AIS consider reasonable recommendations related to lighting be considered prior to finalizing the lighting plan. To the extent that the scoreboard requires special lighting, it should be part of such review. Additionally, any use of audio amplification or public address system associated with the Park Parcel sports and recreation activities should be the subject of further discussions. Brandywine's RCC management team has endeavored to be a good neighbor to the Radnor residents that live in the neighborhood surrounding RCC and, based on the history of this relationship, Brandywine believes that lighting and any public address amplification system will be of interest and possible concern to the residential neighbors as well.

To summarize, Brandywine is generally in support of the AIS Lease and the improved recreational facilities that will be constructed on the Park Property. Additionally, Brandywine is anxious to be a good neighbor and has every confidence that the interested parties can work collaboratively to address Brandywine's concerns set forth in this letter.

Sincerely,

~z~~~

Re: Agnes Irwin School ("AIS") and Township of Radnor ("Radnor") Proposed Lease of Radnor Township Memorial Park ("Park Property")

Dear Mr. Zienkowski:

After further reflection on the Proposed AIS Lease of Radnor Memorial Park, Brandywine has determined that it needs additional information as well as time in which to comment on the proposed AIS Lease. Rich McGuckin, a Vice President from Brandywine, will be attending the Radnor Township Parks & Recreation Advisory Board Special Meeting this evening in an effort to gain a better understanding of this Lease and its associated implications.

Accordingly, Brandywine respectfully retracts its letter dated April 26, 2011 until it has had an opportunity to ascertain all of the facts and implications related to the AIS Lease.

To avoid any confusion in the future and to correct a statement made in the April 26, 2011 letter, Brandywine is the ultimate owner of Radnor Center Assoclates, which is the entity that is the fee owner of Radnor Corporate Center.

Brandywine looking forward to learning more about the details of the AIS Lease and requests prior notice ofall Township meeting on this topic so that a Brandywine Representative can be in attendance.

TAMMY COHEN, INTERIM PARKS & RECREATION DIRECTOR

TO: ROBERT A ZIENKOWSKI, TOWNSHIP MANAGER

FROM: WILLIAM M WHITE, FINANCE DIRECTOR

SUBJECT: MEMORIAL FIELD INVESTMENTS

Finance Department

As requested by Commissioner Curley, this memorandum is meant to summarize the investments that the Township has made into the Memorial Park and Field since it accepted ownership (in 1996). Please note that this summary is our best effort based on the documentation that exists in the Township's files. We feel that it materiallY includes the investments made by the Township, but may not be all inclusive. The summary does not factor administrative costs associated with the investments nor does it factor the cost of the financing used by the Township to fund the improvements (since I cannot definitively determine the source of proceeds used). In putting this information together, Tammy (and her staff) and I spent approximately 18 hours on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

According to Township records, Memorial Park was acquired at no direct cost to the Township.

Instead, the parcels that make up the park were assembled through various agreements with various entities. The Township invested in improving the parking lot, constructing a pedestrian foot bridge and improvements to the field itself as detailed in the attached worksheet and summarized in the following table.

Project Name Amounts Paid

0.00 766,896.95 826,871.00 369,123.00 323,038.36

46,772.95

To address Mr. Curley's question directly, according to the records we were able to locate, the Township has invested $369,123 into the field itself (which also includes the fencing surrounding the field). This number does not include the amount of money the Township spends annually to mow, trim, and repair the field to keep it in plqying condition. A separate analysis would be necessary to obtain those estimates.

If you or Mr. Curley should have any questions, please let either Tammy or me know. Thank

you.
