ITEM 1
0 CITY OF 0 tS e volpr MINNESOTA TO: Parks and Recreation Commission FROM: Ross Demant, Parks and Recreation Director DATE: January 12, 2018 RE: Parks and Recreation System Master Plan Presentation The City's Comprehensive Plan aids City Leaders with providing guidance about park and trail improvements, and recreational opportunities. This direction is based on the community's expressed needs and desires as well as analysis of demographic changes and future trends. The last update to the City's Comprehensive Plan in regards Parks and Recreation was 2012. Taking into consideration the amount of development since 2012, the City Council included a creating a parks and recreation system master plan into the Capital Improvement Plan for 2018. The Parks and Recreation Commission will play a vital role with the creation of this plan by assisting Staff and the City Council during the entire process. One of the first steps in the process will be to select a company to provide professional parks and recreation master planning services. Commissioners will have an opportunity at the January, 2018 Parks and Recreation Commission meeting to hear a presentation for parks and recreation master planning services from SRF Consulting Group, Inc. After their presentation SRF will be excused from the meeting; Commissioners will then have an opportunity to discuss the presentation. Requested Action: Staff is requesting the Parks and Recreation Commission make a recommendation to the City Council about how to proceed with the parks and recreation system master planning services process. Enclosures: SRF Consulting Group, Inc. Parks and Recreation System Master Plan Proposal SBF 11230.PP Mr. Ross Demant Parks and Recreation Director City of Otsego 13400 40th Street NE Otsego, MN 55330 Subject: Parks and Recreation System Plan Dear Mr. Demant: The City of Otsego has an evolving parks and recreation system that serves a wide variety of user group needs. Development of the City's first comprehensive park and recreation system plan should define how future park and recreation amenities and facilities can be planned and implemented to meet the needs of current and future residents. Development of the Parks and Recreation System Plan should begin by establishing a clear vision and goals and objectives for the community's values, recreational needs, and program framework; it should then resolve voids or inconsistencies that may exist today and into the future. The plan update also must: • Provide all City residents, stakeholders, and policy decision -makers with an opportunity to participate in the planning process and establish a strong commitment to the plan's recommendations. • Determine community priorities and identify park development issues to be addressed within the current system. • Respond to the need to identify up to date and evolving recreation user group preferences. • Leverage partnerships with other agencies for recreational programming, facilities, and funding. • Identify funding mechanisms that sustains the recreation and park system by engaging policy makers in a discussion of priorities, values, and fiscal tools to guide park and recreation initiatives. SRF Consulting Group, Inc. (SRF) offers extensive experience and broad skills in developing comprehensive park and recreation systems plans and understands the importance of engaging all stakeholders in the planning process. We will contribute to the success of the Plan by providing: • Commitment of Senior Staff. SRF has assembled a highly -qualified team to address all areas of the parks and recreation systems plan. Ken Grieshaber, PLA, will serve as Principal and Project Manager and be the primary SRF contact for facilitating discussion with the community advisory team, stakeholder groups, and policy makers. Tim Wold, PLA will provide oversight for integrating current and proposed park development initiatives into the plan document using stakeholder comment and feedback to determine final plan recommendations. www.srfconsuIting.com One Carlson Parkway North, Suite 150 1 Minneapolis, MN 55447-4453 1 763.475.0010 Fax: 1.866.440.6364 An Equal Opportunity Employer Mr. Ross Demant City of Otsego January 12, 2018 Page 2 • Demonstrated Experience. SRF's park and trail planning experience spans comprehensive planning, master planning, design, implementation, and in -construction services. We have assisted numerous communities with developing comprehensive park system plans in urban, suburban, and rural settings. Our record of completing successful projects for many city, county and state agencies demonstrates our commitment to providing exceptional park system planning services. • Meaningful Stakeholder Engagement Process. Our team has extensive experience facilitating public processes, leading to creative and consensus -driven plans that strive to meet the needs of all user groups. We believe the best park system plans are often the result of many stakeholders being involved in the planning process — participants should be able to present their ideas and opinions, which can ultimately be reflected in final plan recommendations. • Process and Communication. We are committed to working closely with City staff and stakeholder groups during all phases of this park system planning effort. Communication is the key to every assignment, reinforcing the trust and support needed to successfully plan, and ultimately implement, site improvements. • Enthusiasm and Efficiency. The SRF team will bring enthusiasm and energy to the planning process and make it an enjoyable process for stakeholders. We are committed to completing tasks on time with high-quality and creative outcomes. SRF believes that comprehensive system plans have two products: a stakeholder -driven decision making process and the written recommendations that guide implementation and operation over time. It is imperative that all stakeholders and policy makers participate in the planning process to contribute local knowledge and perspective to ensure current and future needs are addressed as a part of this planning effort. We look forward to the opportunity to discuss in more detail how we can begin to assist the City of Otsego with the development of this Parks and Recreation System Plan. If you have additional questions about the scope of work to be undertaken as part of this planning process, please let us know. Sincerely, Ken J. Grieshaber, PLA, ASIA Timothy Wold, PLA, ASLA Principal Senior Associate kgrieshaber@srfconsulting.com twold e srfconsulting.com KJG/TW/cw S: \Marketing\Proposals\2018 Letter Proposals\ 19230.PP_ParksandBecreationSystemPlan. docx Project Understanding The City of Otsego is an evolving suburban community with large concentrations of undeveloped land designated for future growth and development. This park systems plan will play a key role in establishing key initiatives for guiding the development of park and recreation facilities in the City to ensure public land resources can be programmed and utilized to best meet the needs of residents. The following focus areas will be key components to address as part of this park and recreation system plan. Engaging the Community and Stakeholder Groups With a wide range of stakeholders anticipated to be engaged in the planning process, it will be important to establish a framework for soliciting and recording comments and feedback from all stakeholders with a consistent format that can easily be documented and tracked throughout the planning process. Working closely with City Staff, SRF will ensure all stakeholder comments and feedback can be assessed and documented and be reflected within plan outcomes and recommendations. Responding to New Development Initiatives With new housing and commercial development moving forward in the City, planning efforts for integrating park, trail and open space systems within these new development areas should be addressed as part of this parks systems plan. Opportunities for acquiring park land should also be identified as needed if it provides a high value benefit for the community. Embracing Natural Resource Amenities Natural resource environments today are recognized as high value assets with residents desiring convenient access to natural resource water and vegetation areas. Promoting regional amenities like the Mississippi River and the Otsego Creek corridor can offer residents more exposure to high value natural resource areas, with new park amenities, programming, education and interpretive opportunities. Establishing more convenient trail connections to these destinations through new identified greenway connections and other natural resource areas within the City will begin to provide easier access for areas currently underserved with natural resource amenities. Developing proactive recommendations for protecting remaining high quality vegetation and water resource areas should also be considered as part of this comprehensive planning process. Increasing Connectivity While there are some sidewalk and trail systems already established throughout the City, many gaps exist within the current system that do not connect with high value destinations like schools, parks, and other city destinations. Identifying local trail and sidewalk connections to regional trail corridors should also be considered to further enhance connections to surrounding trail systems in adjacent communities. Identifying New Recreation Opportunities With some of today's park user group needs changing to meet recreational trends and preferences, exploring the possibilities for integrating new types of special use park amenities and facilities should be explored as part of this comprehensive park system planning effort. Accommodating growing field sports, such as soccer and lacrosse, should be reviewed and discussed with recreation user groups to better understand current service area needs within all parts of the City. Project Approach SRF proposes to undertake the following tasks to prepare a Parks and Recreation System Plan. Task 1— Review Available Background Documents/ Complete On- Line Site Tour of Existing Park and Recreation Facilities Objective: Gain an understanding of the City's current park, recreation, and trail system. • Review the City's 2012 comprehensive plan and identify new initiatives which have impacts on future park planning activities. • Review existing park classification standards and update as needed. • Review shared use facilities within school districts and other public/private ventures that may impact new initiatives for park programming and facilities. • Review other public indoor recreation facilities, their ownership and use, and implications for City users. • Review historical, cultural, and natural resource areas and implications for user groups. • Review private indoor/outdoor facilities, such as churches or private schools. Describe opportunities or obstacles for cooperative use and recreational programming. • Review commercial recreation facilities and their role in meeting local needs. • Update City map (if needed) depicting City parks, open spaces, and trails; regional parks and trails; park and recreation destinations; natural and historical features, and roadways.

Assumptions • City will provide demographic information and any available community development forecasts and school district student demographic forecasts. • City will assist with selecting representative peer communities for evaluation. City Involvement Provide insight and available data on current recreation trends. Review and comment on draft deliverables. Task 3 — Create City Park Inventory Mapping Objective: Create individual park inventory mapping to ensure the City has a current, comprehensive listing of park resources that can be used as an information source for guiding the ten-year plan. The latest park inventory identifies nine individual parks to be mapped using the City's existing GIS database. SRF will complete the following: • Hold a work session with appropriate City staff to review the existing inventory and confirm current amenities and facilities at each park. • Assemble individual park profile sheets using aerial photography and color graphic overlays. • Update the matrix of existing park facilities (as needed). • Reaffirm current definitions and standards for park system. Deliverables • Update park matrix that lists existing park facilities. • Individual park profile plan mapping. • Update park designation definitions and standards narrative.

Task 4 — Level of Service Evaluation Objective: Examine the park system from various vantage points to assess the adequacy of the park and recreation system to meet existing and future needs. • Review proposed land use modifications, planned development projects, and current park improvement plans. Based upon known and anticipated development patterns, trends can be interpreted to indicate areas where demand for recreation facilities may be high or where unique natural features may be appropriate for recreational use. Special populations, such as athletic associations, special interest organizations (e.g., art organizations, teens, or seniors) may be identified and discussed to determine how they may influence recreational needs. Analyze physical features, cultural and natural resources, or other elements of Otsego that may shape future park and recreation opportunities. • Evaluate park service area coverages.

Deliverables • Narrative text and tables that summarize time frames, estimated costs, and revenue sources. 6 • Ten -Year Capital Improvement Plan which includes prioritized investments for years 2018 to 2028 with recommended funding sources. Assumptions Cost estimating does not include addressing needed upgrades to existing building facilities. City Involvement • Provide and review with SRF the City's park dedication fee ordinance, dedication fee formulas, and any use limitations associated with these funds. • Assist in describing current Capital Improvement Plan methodology. • Assist in evaluating alternative funding sources. • Review and comment on draft deliverables. Tasl< 9 — Final Document Objective: Prepare Parks and Recreation System Plan document that defines purpose, intent and vision for the park system, provides guiding goals and policies, and outlines clear steps to maintain the current high quality park and system and to enhance it further. • Early in the process discuss and clarify the format, organization, and content to be included in the plan. • Write, assemble, and format draft version and final plan document. Deliverables One color, printed, and bound copy of the draft document and an electronic copy (PDF) on a flash drive. Assumptions After completing the entire draft plan, SRF will complete two sets of revisions. One set of revisions will be based on City staff review and a second set of revisions will incorporate comments from City staff. City Involvement • Provide all existing electronic mapping, images, and text narrative from previous planning documents that will provide the basis for mapping revisions and report formatting. • Distribute draft materials to reviewers and coordinate schedule for review comment submission. • For each set of revisions, the City will compile suggested revisions from reviewers and provide one set of consolidated revisions for SRF to incorporate into the text narrative or maps. Task 10 — Stakeholder Engagement (To be Coordinated with City Staff) Objective: Solicit meaningful stakeholder comments, establish priorities, and gain approvals on plan recommendations. Stakeholder engagement must occur at key junctures throughout the process to 7 provide information, solicit input and feedback, and establish plan recommendations — SRF will support City Staff in this endeavor. This will be accomplished using the following approaches: Community at Large Meetings Prepare for and solicit input and feedback from community residents at up to two community events or open houses located throughout the City. Another potential opportunity is to go where the community is already congregating — this allows for incorporating input from a broader range of residents who normally would not attend an organized meeting. See chronological meeting schedule below for sequencing. Partner Stakeholder Meetings Prepare for and assist with facilitating up to three focus group meetings to gain a better understanding of issues and opportunities. Prepare written meeting summaries. See chronological meeting schedule below for sequencing. Potential focus groups may consist o£ • Seniors • Teens • Athletic Associations • School districts Parks and Recreation Commission Work Session Meetings • Prepare for and attend up to three (3) work session meetings with the Parks and Recreation Commission. See chronological meeting schedule below for sequencing. o Project kick-off. Review existing conditions, programming and procedures. Identify issues and opportunities for development of park, recreation and trail system. o Review demographic analysis, recreation trends, and level of service analyses. o Review park, recreation facility, and trail improvement recommendations, land acquisition, and integration of regional improvements. Chronological Listing of Meetings • PRC Work Session #1 • Community Open House (staff and PRC) • Focus Group Meeting #1 (staff� • Focus Group Meeting #2 (staff) • Focus Group Meeting #3 (staff) • PRC Work Session #2 • Community Open House (staff and PRC) • PRC Work Session #3 • Council Presentation (plan approval) Task 11— Online Engagement (Optional Task to be coordinated with City Staff) Online engagement can be a successful approach for soliciting additional public comment and feedback as a strategy meant to complement face-to-face engagement activities, be accessible from any location at any time, and involve community members who do not typically participate in the public meeting process. Online engagement specifically offers stakeholders and the public the ability to participate in a planning process that is transparent, convenient, and on their own schedule, ultimately building consensus and creating authentic, meaningful engagement in the community throughout the plan development process. Social Media The popularity, effectiveness, and overall reach of social media continues to increase as more people receive and share news and community information through platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube. The accessibility of social media enables users to receive up-to-date information immediately regardless of their geographic location. By using the existing social media channels of the City and your partners, we can tap into the credibility and established relationships they have already built amongst stakeholders and their public audience. Social media provides an additional level of outreach and opportunity for information sharing among a broader audience, locally and regionally, including environmental justice populations. Individuals who may not want to engage or be able to able to participate via traditional public participation methods still have the opportunity to be a part of the decision-making process. SRF will create concise social media content that promotes upcoming outreach events as well as directing users to the City's project website (as described below) for additional information. A social media content calendar will be developed to ensure timely and consistent progress updates shared with stakeholders and the public. Website A planning -specific website can be an important resource for sharing information with stakeholders and the public through the planning process. Website content could include a planning overview, key updates and milestones, information and meeting materials, and outline opportunities to become involved and ways to provide input. The website would be compatible with mobile phones and tablets and adhere to ADA accessible guidelines, including graphics and all other materials.

No two Park Systems are alike, but benchmarking provides insights into the services provided by similarly situated communities. For many communities, ours included, parks are more than a venue for recreation; they offer a sense of identity and quality of life for the community and they are a significant factor in attracting and retaining residents. We must tailor our services to respond to the needs and demands of our community. Benchmarking, via direct comparisons to similar communities and park systems, helps in assessing the relative level of investments in a Park System and the ways a System serves its community. While many communities have a strong Park System, a comparison to communities that are similarly situated in terms of development patterns and demographics, as well as adjacent location, allow us to form more reasonable comparisons. Ultimately, six communities were chosen for comparison purposes. Information used in this assessment considers a combination of operating metrics that factor budgets, staffing levels, and inventory of amenities. In some instances, the information was not tracked or not available. Due to differences in how each system collects, maintains and reports data, variances exist. These variations have an impact on the per capita and percentage allocations within the budget, and the overall comparison must be viewed with this in mind.

A strong and active park system is a key component to enjoying a high quality of life. This system also plays a crucial role in protecting natural resources for future generations. The City of Eagan has built a comprehensive park system over the last 60 years, providing spaces for its residents to recreate, exercise, learn, gather together, and enjoy nature and solitude. As demographics, recreation trends, and environmental conditions in Eagan continue to evolve and change, a flexible and adaptable park system plan is necessary to meet changing needs. This update to the Parks and Recreation System Plan is part of the City of Eagan's 2040 Comprehensive Plan Update. It builds upon the Eagan Park Plans (1983 & 1995), the 20/20 Vision Plan for Parks, Recreation, and Open Space (2006), and the City's recently completed Eagan Forward (2016) vision plan. Goals and Policies Cities are dynamic places that continue to evolve in response to ever changing economic conditions and resident needs and desires. While change is expected to occur, the exact drivers and outcomes are not certain. Therefore, the following goals and policies for Parks and Recreation provide an overarching vision for Eagan. Future park programming and facility improvements should strive to meet these objectives. 1. Provide Healthy Living Opportunities Year -Round ► Provide both active and passive recreation facilities and programming. ► Support and facilitate trails, sidewalks, and on -street bikeways for recreation and transportation. ► Support access to and growth of healthy foods. ► Preserve and restore habitat for plants and animals. ► Minimize environmental impacts of park facilities and maintenance activities. 2. Continue Wise Use ofAvailable Resources ► Maintain facilities to improve life cycle costs. ► Research and obtain alternative sources of funding. ► Optimize facility programming, without causing damage due to overuse. ► Design facilities to ensure highest and best use over the life of the facility. 5-2 1 Parks and Recreation City of Eagan Comprehensive Plan 3. Offer Education and Enrichment Programming ► Include opportunities to participate in the arts, historic interpretation, personal improvement, and social activities. ► Use various media options to raise resident awareness of available recreation opportunities provided by City and other agency providers. 4. Deliver Parks and Recreation for all City Residents ► Ensure access, programs, and facilities for all (age, income, and physical ability). ► Track recreation trends, along with existing and projected resident demographics, to tailor recreation facilities and offerings that respond to changing interests and needs. ► Provide geographic distribution of facilities or convenient and safe travel options to facilities. 5. Coordinate and Collaborate with Related Recreation Providers ► Optimize facilities and collaborate on programs with other community agencies. ► Enhance facilities in partnership with user organizations.
