MEMORANDUM
TO: Parks and Recreation Commission
FROM: Bill Maertz, Parks and Recreation Director
DATE: December 12, 2007
SUBJECT: 2008 Park Dedication Budget
Item:
2008 park dedication budget of $50,000 for playground installation at Meadowvale Heights
Park.
Background:
The Meadowvale Heights park master plan includes a playground area adjacent to the trail
near 196`'' avenue. The trails were completed in 2006. People in the adjacent neighborhood
have requested that the playground be installed as soon as possible as there are many young
children in the neighborhood. In June, 2007 the neighborhood presented a petition to the
city council and sent postcards to staff requesting installation of a playground.
Residents surrounding Meadowvale Heights Park were invited to attend a workshop after
the July 11`'' Parks & Recreation Commission meeting. Staff provided large posters full of
various playground equipment and the residents were given brightly colored dot stickers for
them to apply to the equipment they liked. They were also provided a map of the park and
stickers to indicate their preference as to where the playground would be located. There was
a clear preference for a playground to be located near the trail along 196 Avenue. Staff has
evaluated this site in relation to wetland setbacks and has determined that it will require a
compact playgrounds design. The posters and site requirements were then given to the
playground planners which they used as a guide to come up with a recommendation for a
playground design (see attached).
Staff recommends building a playground in Meadowvale Heights Park in 2008 for $50,000.
Budget would include playground equipment, benches, picnic table and cement edging for
the perimeter of the playground. The playground can be purchased under the U.S.
Communities Cooperative Purchasing Agreement.
Action Requested:
Recommend to City Council a 2008 park dedication budget of $50,000 for playground
installation at Meadowvale Heights Park.
