Part 5. Incentive Project Funding ��Q p�010 <br />Project Title: Community Education on Green Building Methods at the <br />Hanifl Shelter <br />Target Area: Greening Our Community: encouraging sustainable building <br />in Hugo AND Green Building <br />Description of Proposed Project: <br />The City of Hugo is home to the Hanifl Fields Athletic Park which is home to 6 soccer <br />fields and will be the location of several annual athletic tournaments. On an average <br />summer night, the park is used by approximately 300 park -goers. In the next year, with <br />tournaments and events planned to be held, it is estimated that over 6,000 guests will <br />visit the Hanifl Fields Athletic Park. <br />A Sub -Committee planned the design of the shelter which is being constructed at the <br />Hanifl Fields Athletic Park. The LEED rating system was used as a guide to incorporate <br />"green" systems and building strategies into construction of the shelter. Among the <br />features and strategies included are: recycling of site demolition waste materials, <br />lowering demands on water through the use of rain barrels, planting of natural grasses, <br />use of a hi -efficiency heating system, and use of recycled -content building materials. <br />The shelter includes a gathering room which was built to provide an opportunity for <br />environmental classes. <br />This incentive project will give park visitors the opportunity to learn about the green <br />elements included at the site. A message center, which is made from recycled plastic, <br />will be installed outside of the shelter to provide educational opportunities to all park <br />visitors. Signs will be incorporated in the landscaping which point out the rain gardens, <br />rain barrels, and native plantings and explains their role in our environment. Also, a <br />bulletin board and presentation cabinet (includes dry -erase board/presentation screen) <br />will be installed inside of the building for use in classroom settings. <br />Estimated Cost of Incentive Project: $ 12,050 <br />Outdoor Bulletin Board in the Gathering Room <br />Presentation Cabinet in the Gathering Room <br />Outdoor Message Center <br />Individual Education signs (3) <br />Lavatory System made from recycled materials (2) <br />TOTAL <br />$ 850 <br />$ 2,000 <br />$ 2,500 <br />$ 900 <br />5,800 <br />$ 12,050 <br />
