A synopsis of ongoing steps to prepare the city for the successful completion <br />of identified improvements is included below. <br />PIONEER PARK MASTER PLAN PHASE 1 RECOMMENDATIONS: <br />We are on track to present the final master plan phase 1 document to City Council at their upcoming <br />meeting on September 8. This document will recognize previous engagement and planning efforts. It <br />will also provide recommendations on potential future improvements; separated into short-term (0-3 <br />years), mid-term (3-5 years), and long-range (5-10 years) projects. <br />This document will serve as a tool for staff to strategically work through the phased implementation of <br />identified improvements, including strategic outside funding opportunities. Anticipated planning-level <br />costs for each recommended improvement are included, along with a short description of why an <br />improvement was included and what the vision is measuring its success. Though this document does <br />provide more detail on ‘focus projects’ it also considered ongoing trail repairs and maintenance, potential <br />programming opportunities, and allows the city with the flexibility to continue revising this document as <br />they work through improvements or the community’s needs change. <br />Short-term (0-3 years) $2,100,000 +/- with design & engineering: <br />Mid-term (3-5 years) $580,000 +/- with design & engineering: <br />Long-term (5-10 years) $2,800,000 +/- with design & engineering: <br />Ongoing costs: working with city on this figure
