INTRODUCTION SERVICE AREA VISION PARK PLANS IMPLEMENTATIONPLANNING PROCESS EAST OF THE RIVER PARK MASTER PLAN OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE After a year of extensive community engagement with a wide range of people and groups that know and love their parks, community engagement around the preferred concepts centered on the CAC. The preferred concepts were discussed in meetings 10, 11, 12—meetings that regularly attracted between 20 and 30 members of the general public in addition to the CAC members. CAC meeting #10 featured a process of sorting the parks into those that the CAC felt were in the realm of consensus toward recommendation and those that required further discussion. The general public had an opportunity to speak about each park in turn as it was raised to the floor (see Appendix 3 for CAC meeting notes showing the details of the discussion). CAC #11 began the discussion of the “non- consensus” parks. CAC #12 was the final meeting, with the CAC recommending the overall guiding principles, guiding principles for the Grand Rounds Missing Link, and the designs of all parks to the MPRB Commissioners. The CAC did request further exploration of the Caleb Dorr triangle concept with the technical advisory committee and the neighborhood during the public comment period. 6: PUBLIC COMMENT ON THE ERPMP DOCUMENT AND FINAL APPROVAL At the conclusion of the CAC process, MPRB staff and consultants prepared the draft ERPMP document and provided it to the community for formal public comment. The document was made available on line and in print at all service area recreation centers. Surveys were made available online or printed in all recreation centers. As the conclusion of the 45-day comment period, MPRB staff will tabulate the comments, make necessary changes to the document to reflect that input, and bring the Final ERPMP before the Board of Commissioners for approval with a public hearing. 30
