PHASING AND PRIORITIES <br />The Wargo Nature Center master plan has been developed <br />to support phased implementation. Improvements are <br />organized into near term (0-5 years), mid-term (5-12 years), <br />and long term (12+ years) phases. Phasing allows for areas of <br />the overall project to be completed in independent stages. <br />It is anticipated that near-term projects will be built first, <br />but the Master Plan remains flexible so that projects can <br />be implemented as partnership or funding opportunities <br />arise. <br />Priorities were developed based on input from the core <br />project team, and reflect the needs and knowledge <br />of staff, visitors, and other stakeholders that provided <br />input throughout the process. The first phase focuses <br />on more easily implementable improvements, as well as <br />improvements that address issues such as visitor safety, <br />ADA accessibility, place -making, and erosion. Long-term, or <br />third phase improvements, include items that will require <br />larger capital investments and may take more time to <br />secure partnerships and funding for implementation. <br />50 Chapter 5: Implementation <br />KEY: )A) See Full Site Phasing Plan )A) See Wargo Campus Phasing Plan <br />A Signage & wayfinding <br />B Entry drive improvements: bike & pedestrian <br />lane and parking areas <br />c Entry node and walkway <br />D 'Wild Things'ADA interpretive trail loop <br />E ADA trail/dock to water station <br />Nature play area entrance and improvements <br />G Heritage Lab classroom structures <br />H Interior space reconfiguration <br />1 Rental storage improvements <br />J Woodland garden restoration <br />K Parking lot improvements <br />1 Service area and drive <br />v Indoor interpretation/displays <br />F <br />M Upland trail loop <br />N Heritage Lab area parking <br />o West entry gathering area and landscape <br />improvements <br />P Amphitheatre screen planting <br />Q Bird thicket plantings <br />R Treehouse classroom <br />s Open field <br />r Heritage Lab weather shelter <br />u Secondary water access site & birding platform <br />v Connection to the Lino Lakes YMCA <br />w Boardwalk connection to the prairie <br />X Prairie building <br />u g <br />'v <br />N 1 <br />rn <br />(/) g <br />r <br />N O <br />+ z <br />- rn <br />g <br />
