Printing costs--$7,500 Distribution costs--$0-Done by volunteers Map design & development costs--$0-Done by volunteers The new maps will promote Port Ludlow as "A Destination Hiking Village" Distribution will be to: Jefferson Co. Visitor Center, multiple PL Realtors, PL Inn, PL Yacht Club (requested), local Air BnB management (requested), American Volkswalk Association (AVA-- International Hiking Organization--PL hosted in 2022 & 2023), and various hiking organizations in Kitsap and Clallam Counties. The trails on these maps will also expand on the already identified PL trails as seen on Google Maps and the All Trails websites. The updated maps will include the newest Trails on each side of Ludlow Creek. These trails (McCormick Rail Trail & Creek View Loop) include seating/resting benches, interpretive signs, and multiple overviews of Ludlow Creek & Ludlow Falls. They are an extension of the PL Interpretive Trail which is listed in the statewide Washington Trail Association (WTA) publication. Update requests with WTA will follow to identify new routes per the updated map publication. The updated maps will also include other additional new trails-- Springboard Trail showcasing massive springboard stumps from original logging operations, Oak Bay Trail extension connecting to the traditional Around the Bay Trail via the newly developed PL Historical Cemetery. Both of these new trails include specific points of interest for visiting tourist hikers. PORT LUDLOW TRAILS COMMITTEE Page 19 of 43 RECEIVED 09/05/25 Page 5 of 28 2. Proposal Questions Please limit your answers to no more than one page for each question. 1. Tell us about your promotion, program, facility, event or activity and why you think it will increase tourists traveling to and staying in Jefferson County. Include a general description of the promotion, program, facility, event or activity including its purpose, history, etc. Port Ludlow is a Destination Hiking P"diage inviting tourists from Seattle and throughout the Northwest to take part in hikingibiking our trails and also participate in other various outdoor activities of Port Ludlow. Port Ludlow Trails and Natural Resources is a committee under the Port Ludlow Village Council (PLVC) (501 c3) nonprofit) with the mission to develop and maintain over thirty miles of trails in the Master Planned Resort of Port Ludlow. The few original trails were established in the late 1990s but have expanded continuously ever since. We are totally dependent on donations, our operating budget each year is $4000 total, with $1000 donated equally by Port Ludlow Associates (PLA), Ludlow Maintenance Commission (LMC), South Bay Community Association (SBCA), and Port Ludlow Village Council (PLVC). These organizations understand how important our trails are for own older community for health and recreation as well as the targeted hikers from outside our community. However, we do have expenses that are more than our operating budget allows, and then we have to apply for donations again for support of essential components of our tourism program. For example, one key site we have in Port Ludlow is our still reviving Historic Cemetery along one of our hiking trails. We recently conducted a Ground Penetration Radar survey to determine grave locations. This survey found 14 graves at a cost of $4500 and while we applied to the State Archaeologist for funding, it was not accepted so because of our limited budget we are required to seek donations and grants. Since our last submission to LTAC in 2022, we have completed an additional five miles of trails. One of these trails, Creek View Loop completes a spectacular viewing experience of Ludlow Creek and connects (to complete a loop) to the McCormick Rail Trail. These trails on each side of Ludlow Creek have multiple seating/resting/observing benches and interpretive signs showcasing Port Ludlow's history and/or local forestry items of interest. This 2026 LTAC grant application is necessary to update our current base map to include the additional completed trails of the Springboard Trail, Creek View Loop, Interpretive connector, and the Oak Bay Trail extension. Our 2023 map production/distribution was an overwhelming success. We have distributed over 6,500 maps to major and minor lodging services as well as providing maps at four of our trailheads. In addition, 3,000 more maps needed to be printed to support the need until updated maps with the new trails can be provided. An added change in the 2022 initiative was to include the QR code on all of our maps and trail posts for digital access (and to reduce the need for hard copy maps). However, even with the QR code, we needed to distribute thousands of maps to our trailhead locations. We have found that we still need to provide the hard copy maps as many of the visitors do not access the QR code for the trail networks. Most of these trailhead maps are used by tourists unfamiliar with our trails and they are able to take them back to show other non -local hikers the PL Trails. Providing these maps is considered essential to increase the visitors experience when walking, hiking or biking our Port Ludlow Trails. The maps are necessary for the tourist to understand the options that are offered in our diverse trails (and to not get lost). Our trails provide scenic views of Ludlow Falls, Olympic Mountains, Puget Sound, and deep forest. In some cases, three views (or all 4) are provided on one trail, which is rare in the Olympic Peninsula..... Of special importance to providing these added trails has been the increase in safety with trail access to areas of our community that had no access (for fire response) and to provide an alternative walking area away from the dangerous and busy Oak Bay Road. PORT LUDLOW TRAILS COMMITTEE Page 20 of 43 RECEIVED 09/05/25 Page 6 of 28 2. Proposal Questions How does your promotion, program, facility or event support one of the Highest Priorities or Additional Considerations listed below under "Other Criteria" (see page 9)? We are the sole provider of these maps in the State of Washington. For visitors/tourists to Port Ludlow, besides providing an in-depth trail guide, this map provides the location of: the Village Center for shopping/meals/fuel, the RV park for rental space, the Marina for water sports and rentals, the Golf Course with its associated green fees, the Port Ludlow Inn for nightly lodging, and for locating neighborhoods/roads. It is not just a Trails Map. It is essential to Emergency Services for accessing possible fires or other incidents/accidents in the Port Ludlow community. The map is used by all Home Owner Associations, Port Ludlow Associates, and Port Ludlow residents. Given it is the sole provider of important location data for Port Ludlow, it augments any Google Maps or location services that visitors use. In fact, Google Maps identifies some of our Port Ludlow Trails on their detailed magnified maps as well as does the Washington Trails Association (see attachments). Of course, for the PLVC Trails Committee, the key use of the map is to locate oneself on our trails. The maps provide a "gate" to access not only our trails for outside tourists, but they locate the other key attractions of Port Ludlow. The maps are also used at various different events including when regional hiking clubs meet in Port Ludlow to hike our trails (Kitsap and Clallam County) as well as the American Volkswalk Association (AVA part of an International Hiking Association) when they come to Port Ludlow (see attachments). PORT LUDLOW TRAILS COMMITTEE Page 21 of 43 RECEIVED 09/05/25 Page 7 of 28 2. Proposal Questions 2. If this is a continuing or reoccurring promotion, program, facility or event, describe your organization's prior activities. If applicable, how is it different than in the past? Yes, this is a continuing promotion. We successfully applied for and received an LTAC Grant for 2023 to produce our hiking/biking maps. We were successful in obligating and completing this project under the LTAC program. However, due to 1. the significantly increased demand for our maps from new residents and tourists, 2. the needed reprint of additional maps, and 3. the additional development of new trails, we need to update our base map to reflect the new trails and increase our stock of available paper maps to meet the demands of lodging services and tourists in this area. The project is different in that all new trails have been added to the map and the Quick Reference codes have been included on the map base as well as on the entries to all of our trails. The requested quantity reflects the recent historical requests for the maps and the great unit price break for economy of scale. PORT LUDLOW TRAILS COMMITTEE Page 22 of 43 RECEIVED 09/05/25 Page 8 of 28 2. Proposal Questions 4. Describe how you intend to market/promote your promotion, program, facility, event or activity to potential tourists who reside outside Jefferson County or traveling more than 50 miles. If an event, the date of the event: This is not an individual event but a year-round promotion of our trails and community. Our new trails need to be included in an updated map to ensure our visitor/tourists users know where they are going and where the community services are located. The timeline for the tourism promotion activity you are proposing (e.g. May through July, 2026) Our community Trails promotion for visitor/tourists is year-round but the bulk tourism season will of course be in pleasant hiking weather rather than the 3 months of winter. Hopefully with LTAC support, publication and distribution will be in January 2026. c. Target Audience: The principal audience will be those tourists staying at the Inn at Port Ludlow, tourists visiting the Port Hadlock and Port Townsend RV parks, temporary residents of the Condos, the local Air BnB management, and hotels Each will be a conduit to take the map home on departure and disseminate information about Port Ludlow being A Destination Hiking Village. Also, in the past we have had hundreds of day hikers from the Seattle area. We can also provide maps to local Bed and Breakfast homes in Port Townsend for similar dissemination. d. Promotion methods you intend to use to reach the target audience. We will announce the availability of the maps in our community magazine The Port Ludlow Voice. Port Ludlow Associates will also include the availability of the new maps in their website which reaches the tourist population of the northwest. See PLA website at https://portludlowresort.com/about-port-ludlow-resort/. We will also promote through our website for PLVC, as well as virtual newsletters to each of the Home Owner Associations(see https://www.Imcbeachclub.org/, https://sbca.club/ and https://www.portludlowvillagecouncil.org/ ) . e. Describe how you will promote overnight stays at Jefferson County Lodging establishments. Other than providing direct support/service to the overnight guests of the Inn, our multi -media initiative (to include updates to the PLA and PLVC web sites), interaction with the Peninsula Trails Coalition, and articles in the Port Ludlow Voice, we plan to take advantage of other events to publicize and encourage overnight stays in Jefferson County lodging, primarily to take advantage of not only our trails, but other sites around Jefferson County. Three key actions in the past have already helped to "spread the word" on the value of our trails and the encouragement of overnight stays in the area: the review of our trails by the Sierra Club; the use of our trails by visitors from Kitsap County; and the 2021, 2022, and 2024 visits by the Washington Volkswalk organization. With the completion of the National Great American Rail Trail, we expect the importance of the McCormick Trail and other biking trails to draw much more interest, not only in the state of Washington but the United States. Also, we plan to coordinate more with the Washington Trails Association PORT LUDLOW TRAILS COMMITTEE Page 23 of 43 RECEIVED 09/05/25 Page 9 of 28 to publicize more of our trails to more of the Washington public. The more publicized our trails become, the more the public will visit our trails as a key attraction and increase the tourism and stays in Jefferson County. f. If you intend to collaborate with another agency or non-profit to provide these services, please state the name of the organization and describe the nature of the collaboration: PLVC Trails is the only organization within the Port Ludlow community to provide the services defined in this grant. As the point of contact for both the natural and historical education experience, we are collaborating in an informal way with various other organizations. Within Port Ludlow, we coordinate with the two key homeowner associations (Ludlow Maintenance Commission and South Bay Community Association), and the owner of much of the land which our trails lie on, Port Ludlow Associates. We are in communications with the National Rails to Trails program as this program completes the east -west route. Informal collaboration with Washington Trails Association to amend/expand their coverage of PL Trails and a similar informal collaboration with All Trails is on the horizon. PORT LUDLOW TRAILS COMMITTEE Page 24 of 43 RECEIVED 09/05/25 Page 10 of 28 2. Proposal Questions 5. How will you measure the effectiveness of your promotion, program, facility, event or activity? We will be conducting spot checks of the use of the Interpretive Trail trailhead parking, noting where visitors come from each month to track tourism use of our trails. We will continue the monthly spot checks after the distribution of the new maps. We will also ask whether they use the maps or the QR code and what other trails they use. We will also coordinate with the Inn on the quantity of distribution of trail maps to their visitors to determine how many maps are given out. a. Also describe how you will document and report to the County the economic impact from your promotion, program, facility, event or activity. a. The key capture point for tourists using trails is the visitor who stays overnight at the Residence Inn, Condo rentals, and Air BnB homes. Our principal means to monitor use by these visitors of our trails is the number of maps we provide to the Inn. In the past year we have provided thousands of maps to the Inn. This use indicates that hiking trails are very important to our visitors. Our Destination Hiking Village continues to be a "draw" for people wishing to experience the trails environment without travelling to either the National Forest or Park. Walking the trails is a family event, enjoyed by children as well as seniors. Over the past two years we have distributed '/z of the second printing of 3000, besides the initial 7500 run. b. We will conduct regular checks on the use of the Interpretive Trail to acquire use figures and comments that users may have. We already conduct informal "counts" on the users of the Interpretive Trail, and expect this use to increase significantly on the completion of our bridge across Ludlow Creek leading to the new trails with seating, picnic bench, and interpretive signs. c. Our principal data resource is the number of maps distributed through the Inn to their visitors. We will compile annual use figures of the Inn as compared to the number of maps they have been provided over the past five years to determine a metric to evaluate any increase in the value of the trails as an economic incentive to visit our community. d. The metric — map use, will be used to determine the increased use by tourists of our trails. With increased distribution of maps (and higher use of trails) we can show an increase in tourists and therefore an increase in tourism dollars spent in Port Ludlow. PORT LUDLOW TRAILS COMMITTEE Page 25 of 43 RECEIVED 09/05/25 Page 11 of 28 2. Proposal Questions 7. Describe your organization's area of expertise. Do you provide a unique service? Yes. No other organization in the immediate area can provide over 30 miles of maintained hiking/biking trails with views of streams and waterfalls, Olympic mountains, and deep forest within a small, easily accessible community. We have the most extensive trails network in Jefferson County and it is all interlinked. We have a proven track record in Jefferson County, with one of the most extensive trail systems that accesses tremendous vistas. We have integrated trails with historic and natural resource signs to enhance the hiking experience. We continue to construct safe and enjoyable trails for the public, and we continue to train new volunteers to the construction and maintenance of our trails. We also have an extensive training program for developing trails. We own a carryall (Utility Terrain Vehicle) to transport crews and equipment the distant trail work. Our volunteers are knowledgeable of both GPS, GIS for developing and changing the master template for the maps, thus keeping map development expenses to a minimum. For over ten years, PLVC Trails has provided map information for map publication but now that function has passed to the PLVC Trails Committee and we need additional resources to augment our limited budget. PORT LUDLOW TRAILS COMMITTEE Page 26 of 43 RECEIVED 09/05/25 Page 12 of 28 2. Proposal Questions 6. What economic impact can we expect in Jefferson County from your proposed promotion, program, facility, event or activity? a. Actual or estimated number of tourists at your event/facility last year (2025): Our trails are used by the residents on a regular basis. However, some of our trails get heavy use by visitors. On an average day, the interpretive trail sees ten groups of people, with many more during the summer. The highlight for that trail is the view of the falls. If we take a conservative two groups as new visitors, that would come to over 600 groups. This is not unreasonable given that the Inn has given over 3000 maps to its lodgers in the last year. To be conservative, we could say a minimum of 500 tourists have come to Port Ludlow and used the trails. We have distributed over 5,500 maps total over the past year. Most of those maps are used by visitors to the trails, as our residents who use the trails, are very familiar with them and don't take many maps. These visitors come from both Washington State and other States and Canada (per random checks of the Interpretive Trail parking lot, the most used trail in Port Ludlow). b. Estimated number of tourists who will attend your event/facility this year (2025): We expect the number to at least remain at 500, but given the increased interest from the Volkswalk organization, we should see an increase. As word gets around (through the Voice Magazine, word of mouth, and trail maps being taken home) our newest trail McCormick Rail Trail/Creek View Loop Trail has increased the number of hikers (and visitors) substantially. Use of the trails and the increase in heads to beds along with increased tourist spending locally is contingent on good advertising of our trails to Seattle and beyond. Hopefully, working with PLA and PLVC we can inform the Washington public (through Washington Trails Association, All Trails, Google Maps) of our trail network availability. c. Projected economic impact in Jefferson County from your event/facility (e.g. number of tourists who will stay overnight in Jefferson County -based lodging establishments, economic impact for Jefferson County restaurants, community facilities, amenities, events, and businesses) — During the Volkswalk activities, we have seen added heads to beds at the Residence Inn. We also provide maps to a local Bed and Breakfast lodging management company to access those tourists who utilize this facet of lodging. The lodging process and the use of trails support each other. Whether tourists come to hike the trails and stay at our other local lodging or vice versa is unknown. However, just from the increased use of our hiking maps we (and PLA) believe that the trails are very important in increasing the number of lodgers to the Port Ludlow area. To take a conservative number of one half the 500 expected new users of the trails to possibly stay in local lodging, we could see an increase in our economy of $50,000 just for lodging, not to mention the increased use of dining establishments and/or purchases at the Village Center.

Be sure to take a moment to stop and read the excellent interpretive signs along the way. When you reach a junction, turn right and follow the trail downhill. Be sure to pause at the pumphouse to note how high the water rose during a flood in the past. As you continue you on, you'll reach a lovely creek before climbing some stairs to a view of the waterfalls. There are fences in places, which make the overtook not quite so stressful for parents.

They mentioned it's one of the most requested items in the packets they distribute to their reciprocal guests. Here are some reviews that mention trails/hiking from the last 12 months. Nice property Pros Comfortable bed, large room, easy -to -use fireplace, balcony. Friendly staff. Early morning coffee service downstairs if you don't like the coffee bags (think tea bag. but coffee) in room. Beautiful grounds, on the water, with trail map available. Restaurant on premise has nice menu. especially good value at happy hour Nice escape for a weekend away. Good restaurant (will write a separate review for the Fireside Restaurant). There is a beach trail at the back of the property which is lovely - peaceful. he location of the hotel is beautiful and made for lovely dog walks as well as amazing hikes nearby (highly recommend the Ludlow Falls Interpretive Trail). We used this beautiful place as a base for exploring the Olympic Peninsula From the moment we checked in until our departure, we were made to feel welcome and well provided for. The Port Ludlow community maintains a variety of trails in the area of various lengths and a helpful map is available at the desk. This is a dog friendly hotel and village.

Item Budget Trail Ambassador program in Jefferson County — This includes funding for a Lead Ambassador, Field Ambassadors, supplies and equipment, and contractors to process the survey data and support the program. $10,000 Updating and Reprinting of Maps — With work this year extending the trail to Anderson Lake State Park, the following maps will be updated as needed and reprinted: Eastern Olympic Peninsula Cycling Map $4,000 East Region ODT Map $1,600 Jefferson Transit Map $700 Hall Baetz Viewpoint Phase 3 -- Thanks to 2025 LTAC funding from Jefferson County, a lot of work was accomplished in 2025. In 2026, we need funding for roofing (a final metal layer to be installed). $7,000 Pyro Nano Eco-counters — These mobile eco-counters can be moved throughout the trail and have been very useful in Clallam County. In 2025, we will purchase a pack of 3 eco-counters for use in Jefferson County. $4,000 Sanicans - We cover the cost of 5 ADA-compliant sanicans. Sanicans are a critical tourism -related facility throughout the trail system. This is a public health and safety dimension of the experience, and a distinct need of the ODT. $15,600 maintenance and improvements Purchase of equipment, including weed whackers $2,500 Rental of maintenance equipment, and rental of storage space for equipment $3,600 Supplementing Jefferson Public Works maintenance of the trail, mainly including resurfacing of the trail in two sections (each will cost around $21,000) $42,000 Total 41Pag, $91,000 PENINSULA TRAILS COALITION Page 19 of 82 RECEIVED 09/10/25 Page 5 of 67 2. Proposal Questions 1. Tell us about your promotion, program, facility, event or activity and why you think it will increase tourists traveling to and staying in Jefferson County. Include a general description of the promotion, program, facility, event or activity including its purpose, history, etc. The Trail Ambassador Program: Since 2023, Trail Ambassadors have greeted thousands of visitors. Trail Ambassadors function as a mobile visitor center, enhancing the overall experience for those trail users encountered, as well as identifying trail conditions warranting our attention and giving us additional capability to provide a PTC presence at events. Trail Ambassadors distribute a diverse range of maps that go beyond recreation information by including a wealth of helpful resources for tourists with links to lodging, dining and shopping options. Maps: The Peninsula Trails Coalition takes pride in producing and offering a diverse range of maps to ensure visitors can discover and use the Larry Scott and Olympic Discovery Trail with confidence and safety. While it is undeniable that electronic apps have simplified navigation (though maybe only for certain demographics), a valuable lesson we have learned from our Ambassador Program is the enduring popularity of paper maps, especially for visitors from out of the area. Many of the maps we distribute will need to be updated to factor in the expansion of the trail where it connects to Anderson Lake State Park. We also distribute so many maps that they have to be printed every year or so, and in 2026, we need to update and print the Eastern Olympic Peninsula Cycling Map, the East Region ODT Map, and the Jefferson Transit Map. Eco-Counters: Additionally, we request funding to purchase three mobile Eco-Counters that can be moved to various locations to have a better sense of trail usage in areas without any permanent Eco-Counters in Jefferson County at this time. A permanent eco-counter will be placed near Four Corners Road. The increased knowledge of usage based on the Eco-Counters data will ensure a variety of trail -related capabilities and amenities are calibrated to actual trail usage —both in numbers of users and location of users. With this data, we might choose to have sanicans serviced more frequently or install picnic tables or benches. Hall Baetz Viewpoint: The Hall Baetz Viewpoint, located at the junction of Highway 20 and 101 and overlooking Discovery Bay offers a primary engagement point for tourists visiting East Jefferson County. This new scenic viewpoint will increase tourism by capitalizing on the visual appeal, diversifying tourism offerings, enhancing the infrastructure associated with the ODT, and can be enjoyed year-round, making it a valuable tourism asset for Jefferson County. In 2026, we plan to install a 3rd layer of metal roofing on the log structure, and are requesting $7,000 to do SO. Sanicans: We request funding to cover the cost of all five ADA-compliant sanicans along the ODT in the County, which inherently contribute to a positive visitor experience. Trail maintenance: Trail maintenance and resurfacing as needed is critical to a positive visitor experience. This grant request includes funding for the purchase of equipment, as well as the brental of equipment and storage space for equipment. Additionally, Jefferson County Public Works is aware of two areas of the trail needing resurfacing. The enclosed letter of support from Jefferson County Public Works Director Eric Kuzma provides further details. 5 1 P a g e PENINSULA TRAILS COALITION Page 20 of 82 RECEIVED 09/10/25 Page 6 of 67 2. If this is a continuing or reoccurring promotion, program, facility or event, describe your organization's prior activities. If applicable, how is it different than in the past? The Trail Ambassador Program: This program was initiated in 2023. Every year, we implement improvements. In 2024, using iPads increased the efficiency of input of survey data. In 2025 we hired more ambassadors than in past years. At this time, no changes are planned for 2026. Maps: This grant request includes the cost of updating and printing three of our maps, updates that are necessary due to the exciting expansion of the trail to connect with Anderson Lake State Park. As this grant is being written, the trail is being extended 3.5 miles to connect all the way through Anderson Lake State Park to Anderson Lake Road from the Port of Port Townsend. This is being done in partnership with Jefferson County and Washington State Parks. Eco-Counters: Last year was the first year we employed the use of pyro nano eco-counters in Clallam County, and we hope to employ them in Jefferson County this year. They are mobile and perfect for counting users in natural environments, and are super discreet, waterproof, durable, and easy to install. These will be useful to assess use along portions of the trail where a permanent eco-counter is not in place, which will likely include Anderson Lake State Park, Discovery Bay, and the Port of Port Townsend. Hall Baetz Viewpoint: Work on this viewpoint was funded by LTAC in 2025. That includes some revegetation of the site, fencing, safety features, and signage. Next year, a final layer of metal roofing will be attached to the layers of roofing being installed this year. This viewpoint is the first of its kind along the ODT. The Peninsula Trails Coalition has been spearheadingthe development of this trail -oriented facility the Hall Baetz Viewpoint because the viewpoint will become a key locus for two trails currently under development- 1) the Hood Canal Bridge to Olympic Discovery Trail connector and 2) the Olympic Discovery Trail (and co - located Pacific Northwest National Scenic Trail) section from Four Corners through Eaglemount to Discovery Bay which will move trail users off Highway 20. The Viewpoint will consist of a rustic log shelter building, parking for 8-10 cars, a bathroom facility, and water & electrical service. Sanicans: Sanicans have historically been provided by Jefferson County, but PTC took on this responsibility in 2025, installed sanicans at 2 new locations, and now all are ADA-compliant. No new sanican locations are planned for 2026, and we plan to continue to cover the cost of all 5 sanicans, hopefully with the assistance of LTAC. Sanicans are located at the Port of Port Townsend Trailhead, Trailhead Park in Cape George, the Milo Curry Trailhead, the South Discovery Bay trail segment, and along Old Gardiner Road at Contractors Creek in Gardiner. Trail maintenance: We know that use of the trail increases every year, and so do maintenance costs. This year, there's a need for resurfacing 2 portions of the trail, and Jefferson County Public Works has graciously agreed to do the work if we can secure funding. The enclosed letter of support from Jefferson County Public Works Director Eric Kuzma provides further details. Additionally, there are increased costs of equipment and storage of equipment, which have been factored into this grant request. 61 'age. PENINSULA TRAILS COALITION Page 21 of 82 RECEIVED 09/10/25 Page 7 of 67 3. How does your promotion, program, facility or event support one of the Highest Priorities or Additional Considerations listed below under "Other Criteria" (see page 9)? Every request in this grant proposal enhances the visitor experience of the ODT, which is already one of the destinations that draws people to Jefferson County. Since PTC's inception 37 years ago, we have helped with the development of this destination. Approximately 90 to 92 miles of the 135-mile Olympic Discovery Trail (ODT) have been constructed as a designated multi -use path, with the remainder of the route being on public roads. This is not including the approximately 3.5 miles being added to the trail this year so it connects with Anderson Lake State Park. The ODT, including the Larry Scott segment, creates an outdoor recreation and active transportation backbone for the North Olympic Peninsula attracting day users who shop and dine locally, running and biking event participants who bring along family/friends who shop, dine and stay overnight in campgrounds and other lodging, and long distance travelers who use the entire 135-mile route of the trail, visit county and state parks, the Olympic NP, shop, dine, and stay multiple nights. The ODT is often the primary reason people visit the area. The ODT can be used year-round, and is used by walkers, runners, ADA wheeled users, bikers and e-bikers. They are also popular as an outdoor recreational facility for organized walks, runs and bike rides, and provides the infrastructure for event promoters to develop trail -based events. Trail -based events are year-round. With the new expanded infrastructure to Anderson Lake State Park, there will likely be more. 4. Describe how you intend to market/promote your promotion, program, facility, event or activity to potential tourists who reside outside Jefferson County or traveling more than 50 miles. a. If an event, the date of the event: N/A b. The timeline for the tourism promotion activity you are proposing (e.g. May through July, 226). Year-round c. Target Audience Visitors from 50+ miles away d. Promotion methods you intend to use to reach the target audience. Social media, trails magazines, and trail stories on social media. Social media engagement has played a pivotal role in our efforts to attract potential visitors and engage with repeat visitors. We continue to collaborate with social marketing media professionals, which has resulted in a broadening of our reach. 7 1 P a g e PENINSULA TRAILS COALITION Page 22 of 82 RECEIVED 09/10/25 Page 8 of 67 e. Describe how you will promote overnight stays at Jefferson County lodging establishments. Working with visitorcenters, businesses and lodging close to trail to promote trail, social media stories emphasizing multi -day itineraries. Additionally, Trail Ambassadors distribute a diverse range of maps that go beyond recreation information by including QR codes which direct visitors to a wealth of helpful online resources for tourists with links to lodging, as well as dining and shopping options across the County. f. If you intend to collaborate with another agency or non-profit to provide these services, please state the name of the organization and describe the nature of the collaboration: We are collaborating with Jefferson County Public Works on the proposed resurfacing projects. There are two segments of the ODT that need resurfacing, 0.80 miles between Thomas Street and SR 20, and 0.85 miles between SR 20 and Nelsons Landing Road. The labor, equipment and material for Jefferson County Public Works to complete each project is estimated to be $21,000. 5. How will you measure the effectiveness of your promotion, program, facility, event or activity? Throughout the Larry Scott Trail and the Olympic Discovery Trail, specific effectiveness will be measured by periodic in -person site presence through the Trail Ambassador program, and use of permanent and mobile trail counters (Eco-Counters). In 2024, 170,000 people used sections of the ODT in Jefferson County. This number is based on Eco-counter data and the Trail Ambassador Program. Also based on the same methods, we estimate that about 26% of trail users come from greater than 50 miles away. The Hall Baetz Viewpoint is uniquely situated to provide public access amenities in an important highway and trail interchange where they are currently notably lacking. The Viewpoint offers visitors an attractive and scenic place to stop, take in the views, and be offered suggestions for things to do and explore in the County. The Viewpoint is guaranteed to enhance the visitor experience in Jefferson County. The Olympic Discovery Trail, including the Larry Scott Trail, has increased in popularity over time, so trail enhancements are also guaranteed to enhance visitor experience in Jefferson County. The Olympic Discovery Trail is often the primary reason people visit the area. a. Also, describe how you will document and report to the County the economic impact from your promotion, program, facility, event or activity. (State law requires the County to report annually to the State Department of Community Development and Economic Trade about the number of lodging stays and economic benefit from tourists generated by use of Lodging Tax proceeds for tourism promotion.) 8 1 P a g e PENINSULA TRAILS COALITION Page 23 of 82 RECEIVED 09/10/25 Page 9 of 67 Trail Ambassador data and Eco-Counter data will be used to measure economic impact for the Larry Scott Trail and the Olympic Discovery Trail. 6. What economic impact can we expect in Jefferson County from your proposed promotion, program, facility, event or activity? a. Actual or estimated number of tourists at your event/facility last year (2025): In 2024, 170,000 people used sections of the ODT in Jefferson County. This number is based on Eco-counter data and the Trail Ambassador Program. Also based on the same methods, we estimate that about 26% of trail users come from more than 50 miles away. b. Estimated number of tourists who will attend your event/facility this year (2026): It will likely increase. 2025 Trail Ambassador data has not been processed yet, but will be available in early 2026. c. Projected economic impact in Jefferson County from your event/facility (e.g. number of tourists who will stay overnight in Jefferson County -based lodging establishments; economic impact for Jefferson County restaurants, community facilities, amenities, events, and businesses). We estimate that there were at least 22,372 paid lodging nights in 2024. This year's data is still being collected, using funding from the City of Port Townsend LTAC awarded in 2025, but it's likely to be at least 23,000 in 2026. A recent study of the potential economic impact of the Washington State portion of the cross- country Great American Rail Trail estimated that the 554 miles of trail in the State will generate $24.9 Million in annual spending. That's approximately $45,000 per mile of trail (source: americanrail-trail . For the Larry Scott Trail segment, a similar estimate would yield $420,000 annually. 7. Describe your organization's area of expertise. Do you provide a unique service? The Peninsula Trails Coalition is a 37-year-old volunteer, nonprofit organization that collaborates and coordinates with 14 city, county, and tribal entities to develop, maintain, and advocate for the Olympic Discovery Trail as a world -class, multi -use pathway connecting communities across the North Olympic Peninsula. The trail provides recreation and active transportation access for a diverse spectrum of users and serves as a catalyst for rural economic development. In addition to connecting communities on the North Olympic Peninsula, the Olympic Discovery Trail is a nationwide asset, serving as the western terminus of the 3,700-mile Great American Rail Trail, the Pacific Northwest National Scenic Trail, the Sound to Olympics 91 '1g_ PENINSULA TRAILS COALITION Page 24 of 82 RECEIVED 09/10/25 Page 10 of 67 Trail, and the Puget Sound to Pacific Trail. Trail traffic counters and in -person trail user surveys document annual usage at more than 300,000 users. The Peninsula Trails Coalition is also a regional leader and collaborator in multiple projects that create and complete an emerging and comprehensive trail network beyond the Olympic Peninsula. For example, the PTC is working with the North Kitsap Trails Association and the Bainbridge Island Parks and Trails Foundation under a collaborative called Puget Sound to Pacific (PS2P) to secure funding to complete 200 miles of non -motorized, multi -use trail connecting Puget Sound on Bainbridge Island to the Pacific Coast at the Quileute tribal reservation in La Push, WA. The 14 jurisdictions encompassed within the PS2P project were recently awarded a $16.3 million federal RAISE grant authored by the PS2P Collaborative to plan and design 34 active transportation components addressing approximately 100 miles in trail gaps within those 14 jurisdictions. 3.

PENINSULA TRAILS COALITION Page 25 of 82 RECEIVED 09/10/25 Page 11 of 67 2026 LTAC Opportunity Information 1. Jefferson County's Proposal Process - The Jefferson County LTAC solicits service proposals each year. The proposal form is attached, posted on the County's website, www.cojefferson.wa.us and may also be requested by calling the Jefferson County Commissioner's Office at the Courthouse, (360) 385-9102. This year, the Committee will review proposals on September 30, 2025 from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Applicants are asked to attend the September 30, 2025 meeting beginning at 10:30 a.m. The County will provide meeting information for all complete applications. At that meeting, each proposing agency will answer questions from the Committee regarding their proposal. The Lodging Tax Advisory Committee will make a recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners regarding which proposals to fund, and at what funding levels within available revenues. The review of the LTAC recommendations and final decision about how to use the lodging tax monies is made by the County Commissioners. Each agency will be notified of the status of their proposal. Contracts are prepared by the County and sent to agencies. 2. Available Funding for 2026 Organizations submitting proposals should be aware that a total of approximately $900,000 in lodging tax awards will be available for allocation to eligible tourism promotion activities through this RFP. This amount also includes $5,280 in staffadministrative costs to manage the grants and to process invoices, and $10,000 contingency fund for Olympic Peninsula Gateway Visitor Center. County Ordinance 09-1207-98 provides for distribution of Lodging Tax as follows: The lodging tax funds are to be used for targeted and/or regional promotion, the operation and maintenance of organizations operating tourist related facilities and their costs for local promotional activities. Not more than 25% for the development of tourism related facilities. 3. Definitions By state law, lodging tax funds may only be used for tourism promotion and the acquisition and/or operation, including maintenance, of tourism -related facilities. The following definitions are copied verbatim from RCW 67.28.080. Note: State law changed in 2007 to include "operation" of tourism events in the definition of "tourism promotion." "Tourism" means economic activity resulting from tourists, which may include sales of overnight lodging, meals, tours, gifts, or souvenirs. 11 1 age PENINSULA TRAILS COALITION Page 26 of 82 RECEIVED 09/10/25 Page 12 of 67 "Tourist" means a person who travels from a place of residence to a different town, city, county, state, or country, for purposes of business, pleasure, recreation, education, arts, heritage, or culture. "Tourism promotion" means activities, operations, and expenditures designed to increase tourism, including but not limited to advertising, publicizing, or otherwise distributing information for the purpose of attracting and welcoming tourists; developing strategies to expand tourism; operating tourism promotion agencies; and funding the marketing of special events and festivals designed to attract tourists. "Tourism -related means real or tangible personal property with a usable life of three or more facility" years, or constructed with volunteer labor that is: (a)(i) Owned by a public entity; (ii) owned by a nonprofit organization described under section 501(c)(3) of the federal internal revenue code of 1986, as amended; or (iii) owned by a nonprofit organization described under section 501(c)(6) of the federal internal revenue code of 1986, as amended, a business organization, destination marketing organization, main street organization, lodging association, or chamber of commerce and (b) used to support tourism, performing arts, or to accommodate tourist activities. 4. Proposal Evaluation Criteria Jefferson County Policy Statement for Use of the Lodging Tax Jefferson County's Lodging Tax Fund will be the primary source of county funding for activities, operations, and expenditures designed to increase tourism. The County does not make any multi- year commitments with Lodging Tax funds. However, service providers are not limited or prohibited from making repeat annual requests of the same nature. The County intends to maintain a reserve in the Fund, and will assess on an annual basis how much of the Fund to appropriate in a given year. The Jefferson County Commissioners have created a Lodging Tax Advisory Committee to conduct an annual process to solicit and recommend Lodging Tax funded services for the County Commissioners consideration. Jefferson County will only consider proposals for use of the Lodging Tax from public and non-profit agencies. The Fund will ONLY be used for the following purposes: 1. The promotion of emerging or on -going tourism events, facilities, and activities by government or non-profit agencies so as to attract and draw tourists to unincorporated Jefferson County from outside Jefferson County. 2. Operation of a tourism promotion agency (such as a visitor and convention bureau); 3. The marketing of special events and festivals designed to attract tourists to unincorporated Jefferson County from outside Jefferson County. 121 'age PENINSULA TRAILS COALITION Page 27 of 82 RECEIVED 09/10/25 Page 13 of 67 4. Capital and/or operating costs for tourism facilities owned by a public entity or a non-profit organization as defined in State law RCW 67.28.080.1(7) — Tourism Related Facility. 5.

Background Information Jefferson County's Lodging Tax The Lodging Tax is an excise (sales) tax authorized by State law in RCW 67.28, Public Stadium, Convention, Arts and Tourism Facilities. In 1998, the State Legislature amended Chapter 67.28 of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) to allow local governments to assess an additional 2%tax on lodging for tourism promotion and/or tourism -related facilities (sometimes referred to as "the new 2%"). In April 1999, the County Commission, by Ordinance, increased the County's Lodging Tax from a 2% to a 4% tax as allowed by RCW 67.28. Jefferson County's Lodging Tax Advisory Committee Per RCW 67.28.1817, the State requires that local governments collecting the Lodging Tax establish a Lodging Tax Advisory Committee consisting of at least five (5) members: The Chair — a member of the County Commission or their designee 2 members — representing the lodging industry 2 members — representing activities authorized to be funded by said tax The Committee's role is advisory in nature, with the Committee's purpose being to advise the County Commissioners. The Committee must select the candidates from amongst the applicants applying for use of revenues and provide a list of such candidates and recommended amounts of funding to the County Commissioners for final determination. In 1998, the Jefferson County Commissioners created such a Committee, and asked the Committee to establish an annual process to solicit and review proposals for tourism services eligible for lodging tax funding. Committee members are appointed by the County Commissioners as part of the County's regular advisory committee appointment process.

Box 1836 Port Angeles, WA 98362 Re: 2026 PTC/ODT - Jefferson County LTAC Letter of Support Dear Rich, 623 Sheridan Street Port Townsend, WA 98368 360-385-9160 This letter is to inform you of Jefferson County Public Works' support, and appreciation, for the Peninsula Trails Coalition (PTC) 2026 Olympic Discovery Trail, Lodging Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC) funding application. With costs significantly outpacing revenues it has become increasingly challenging for Public Works to prioritize maintenance of the amazing resource that is the Olympic Discovery Trail. Furthermore, as of this year, the County is adding an additional t3.5 miles to the trail and associated trail maintenance. Included in the 2026 LTAC application, PTC has requested funding for the continued operation of the portable restroom facilities located along Jefferson County's segments of the Olympic Discovery Trail. If successful, the PTC will continue to take responsibility for the restrooms located at the Port of Port Townsend trailhead, Trailhead Park in Cape George, the Milo Curry trailhead, the South Discovery Bay trail segment, and along Old Gardiner Road at Contractors Creek in Gardiner. Additionally, the PTC has requested up to $42k in funding to support County trail maintenance activities. This funding could be used to reimburse the labor, equipment and materials necessary to resurface the 0.80 and 0.85 mile -long Olympic Discovery Trail segments located between Thomas Street and SR20, and SR20 and Nelsons Landing Road. We appreciate PTC's coordination and cooperation in this request.
