2.c MSA Scandia Parks and Recreation Master Plan ProposalPROPOSAL TO DEVELOP A: Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Master Plan PREPARED FOR: CITY OF SCANDIA, MN DUE BY: JANUARY 28, 2022 January 28, 2022 Ken Cammilleri, City Administrator City of Scandia 14727 209th Street North Scandia, MN 55073 Re: Proposal for a Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Master Plan Dear Ken, Over the past 10 years, we all have witnessed a strong national trend of increased interest in outdoor recreation and health. One result is investment in parks and recreation amenities, available to all residents to encourage physical activity. Communities are improving their parks, connecting safe walking and bike routes, and exploring new programs and amenities to attract users to both active and passive recreation experiences. In addition, in the last few years, we have seen a strong push for social equity and sustainable infrastructure within our parks. Across the country, communities and non-profit groups are forming partnerships to protect the places of recreational value, embracing the above-listed factors, and ensuring these places are available for future generations to enjoy. To stay engaged and contribute to park and recreation thought leadership, we are active members of the National Recreation and Park Association and its state chapters. At both national and state conferences, we have presented innovative park and recreation ideas and projects; we are also active participants in regional meetings. We make it a priority to stay on top of current practices for completing park needs assessments. We understand that each community is unique in the facilities and the level of service it provides, and that this plan is more than a math equation. Park planning is about talking to residents, staff and elected officials in the community to see what they need and balancing that with funding that is available. Internally, we have a Parks and Recreation “Community of Practice” (CoP) comprised of professionals from our 17 offices who share a passion for improving community recreational facilities. Our project team members are part of this CoP. Together, we form a well-rounded collection of professionals ready to bring all the aspects you need into one plan with a practical approach. We understand your interests and strongly support your desire to encourage recreation in your community, boost community health, provide spaces for all residents to recreate, and preserve and connect the places that make Scandia special. Our enclosed proposal includes our project team, qualifications, scope of services, schedule and fee. Our scope and fee are based our experience with similar planning efforts, but we are open to negotiation and refinement. The MSA project team is excited and available to work diligently with the community to create your Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Plan.

AREAS OF SPECIALIZATION | CORE DISCIPLINES FOR THIS PROJECT PLANNING & FACILITATION MSA has specialists in all areas of community planning, including Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plans (CORPs). Our award-winning parks and recreation planners work to understand the challenges our clients face and help them develop sustainable, implementable plans to provide guidance in overcoming those hurdles. To create the best plan for the City of Scandia, we understand that our role is to provide information and facilitate discussion. We do our work to enable your decisions. It is our hope that through this, your decisions will be informed by your community. It is critical that stakeholders are informed and involved throughout this process. PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT Engaging your community will be critical to developing a plan that benefits the community for the long term. To do this, we offer a menu of options for stakeholders to get involved. Our Engagement Toolkit, developed by our parks and recreation professionals, features methods across the entire public engagement spectrum that we have found most helpful throughout many similar projects. ARCHITECTURE From interior design and feasibility studies to HVAC and architectural design, our project architects have the expertise to inventory and design spaces like recreation facilities, concession stands and restroom facilities. LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE Our landscape architects are skilled specialists in collaborative approaches to protect and enhance the natural environment. They bring strong expertise in diverse stakeholder engagement and the development of CORPs and programmatic efforts. How residents perceive the quality of life within their community can be attributed to the quality of parks and recreational facilities available to them. GEOSPATIAL/GIS ANALYTICS AND MAPPING MSA’s geospatial analysts are well-versed in big data set management, analytics, and mapping. Additionally, they have developed and deployed numerous mobile data collection applications that may provide value to this project and future implementation of the ultimate plan. 4 MSA QUALIFICATIONS CORP EXPERIENCE How residents perceive the quality of life within their community can be attributed to the quality of parks and recreational facilities available to them. As new recreational opportunities emerge, and the population and age of Americans continues to diversify, the demand for both traditional and non-traditional recreational facilities surges. Recreational-based tourism continues to proliferate as an important component of local and state economies. MSA has helped numerous clients meet this growing demand through the planning, development & revitalization of recreational amenities, including parks, waterfront developments, aquatic facilities, multi-use paths & athletic facilities. What makes a successful parks and recreation plan? A successful parks and recreation plan requires close collaboration with all stakeholders to identify goals and policies for park and recreational planning that fulfill the unique needs of the community. Throughout the development of each of these plans, MSA facilitates several meetings with key stakeholders, including community staff, board members, advisory committees and residents. MSA also hosts community open-house style events and develops surveys specifically geared toward giving residents a platform to provide feedback concerning desired park and recreation improvements. It’s important all stakeholders are engaged to reflect a true community-based comprehensive plan. 5MSA LOCATION YEAR Village of West Baraboo, Wisconsin 2021 Village of Fox Lake, Wisconsin 2021 City of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin 2021 City of Chilton, Wisconsin 2021 Village of Barneveld, Wisconsin 2021 City of Middleton, Wisconsin 2020 City of Riverdale, Iowa 2020 City of Durant, Iowa 2020 City of Pine City, Minnesota 2019 Marathon County, Wisconsin 2019 City of Hiawatha, Iowa 2019 City of Hartford, Wisconsin 2018 LOCATION YEAR Village of North Freedom, Wisconsin 2018 Village of West Baraboo, Wisconsin 2017 Village of Mukwonago, Wisconsin 2017 Village of Waunakee/Town of Westport, Wisconsin 2017 City of Waupun, Wisconsin 2017 City of Verona, Wisconsin 2016 City of Beaver Dam, Wisconsin 2016 Village of Lake Delton, Wisconsin 2015 City of Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin 2015 City of Port Washington, Wisconsin 2014 Village of Biron, Wisconsin 2013 Village of Belleville, Wisconsin 2012 LOCATION PARK Village of Cottage Grove, WI 22-Acre Park Master Plan Village of Mahomet, IL Barber Park Master Plan City of Tuscola, IL Ervin Park Plan and Improvements City of Madison, WI Vilas Park Master Plan City of Arcola, IL Kelly Moore Park Master Plan City of Beaver Dam, WI Swan Park Master Plan City of Onalaska, WI Rowe Park Master Plan, City of East Dubuque, IL Gramercy Park Master Plan City of Verona, WI Fireman’s Park Master Plan Update City of Guthrie Center, IA Mitchell Park Master Plan Village of North Freedom, WI Park Master Plan and CORP Village of Mahomet, IL 13 Acre Park Master Plan Village of Annawan, IL Park Master Plan City of Appleton, WI Ellen Kort Peace Park Master Plan City of East Peoria, IL Levee Park Master Plan City of Champaign, IL Hessel Park Planning, Splash Pad and Playground, PARK MASTER PLANNING EXPERIENCE QUALIFICATIONS | PROJECT PORTFOLIO PROJECT UNDERSTANDING MSA will approach this planning project with the following factors in mind: • Understand the important role the Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Master Plan plays in providing a vision to guide and prioritize investments in the City’s park system to meet current and future needs. Wants and needs usually outnumber available funding, so the plan must serve to both identify and prioritize improvements based on input from all stakeholders. • Recognize the vital role the City’s park system plays in supporting the local economy. The plan should highlight this value to demonstrate the direct, indirect and induced benefits these investments in the City’s park system have on its overall economy. • The plan will be an important tool in maintaining eligibility for the City to apply for and receive federal and state aid for the acquisition and development of outdoor recreation, open space sites and facilities. • The plan needs to include a community engagement effort. In a world where people are increasingly strapped for time, it’s important to give a variety of options to encourage individuals to participate in the planning process. • The plan needs to be user-friendly, serving the dual purpose of providing a vision for continued investment in the City’s park system while also advocating the importance of the park system/department. A well-crafted plan will serve as a strategy for the department to make the best impacts economically feasible. PROJECT APPROACH PHASE I OUTLINE MISSION, GOALS, AND OBJECTIVES (MONTH 1) TASK 1 | STAFF KICK-OFF MEETING – WORKING SESSION MSA will coordinate initial project start-up activities with the City staff: • Review project scope and schedule. • Review draft community survey and discuss outreach methodologies. • Review list of available and desired data and planning documents, including City GIS data, previous relevant plans and documents, current and previous department budgets, capital improvement plans, recreation program participation totals and current park fees. • Prepare for the first City Council’s Park and Recreation Committee meeting. TASK 2 | EXISTING CONDITIONS MSA will review the following plans and incorporate applicable recommendations and policies into the Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Master Plan: • Scandia Comprehensive Plan • Other relevant plans and studies • Comprehensive Parks, Open Space and Recreation Plan PHASE II UPDATE PARK STANDARDS AND INVENTORY (MONTH 2) TASK 1 | PARK INVENTORY & ASSESSMENT MSA will tour the City’s parks to complete an inventory and evaluation of existing park facilities. MSA will utilize existing data provided by the City related to the type of facilities and year built and supplement this data with a general evaluation of existing park facilities through on-site observation. This information will be used to assist with the development of recommendations for maintenance, replacement or new facilities. In addition, this assessment will consider the current local and national trends for further review of the parks in the plan. TASK 2 | GEOGRAPHIC/LOCATIONAL ANALYSIS • Map 1 - Existing Parks. A map of the location of existing City parks using available GIS data. This map will also include the locations of county and state park and recreational facilities. • Map 2 - Park Facility Distribution. A map visually depicting the type of recreational facilities available in each City park, including whether the facilities are lighted. This map is useful in determining where portions of the City may or will be underserved or overserved by certain types of amenities. • Map 3 - Park Service Areas. A map identifying service areas for each City park. • Map 4 - Potentially Underserved Areas. A heat map combining population density and park service areas to identify places in the community that are underserved by parks, and parks which might require additional maintenance and repair due to heavy use. TASK 3 | PARK AND RECREATION COMMITTEE MEETING #1 MSA will meet online with the City Council’s Park and Recreation Committee to: • Review project scope and schedule. • Review prior recommendations from the existing Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan that have either been completed, not completed but still valid, and not completed and are possibly no longer valid. 6 MSA PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH • Review Maps 1-4. • Obtain initial feedback on issues, opportunities and desired improvements within the City’s park system. PHASE III PARK NEEDS ASSESSMENT (MONTH 3) TASK 1 | DEVELOP PROFILE OF PROSPECTIVE PARK USERS MSA will provide statistical analysis regarding past and projected population statistics for the City. MSA will also assess the demographic profiles and projections within each park service area. MSA will analyze how each park contributes to the needs of the population served based on the profile of prospective park users, Maps 1-4, and the Parks Survey. TASK 2 | QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS MSA will analyze the amount of parkland per person available to City residents based on current and estimated population projections. The results of this analysis will indicate projected deficits or surpluses of total park land, in five-year increments, through 2040. MSA will also compare this data to that of similar sized communities using the National Recreation and Park Association’s latest metrics. TASK 3 | PARK AND RECREATION COMMITTEE MEETING #2 MSA will meet online with the City Council’s Park and Recreation Committee to: • Review project scope and schedule. • Discuss draft Community Survey and outreach methodologies. • Review the Results of Tasks 1 and 2. PHASE IV PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT/QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS (MONTHS 4-5) TASK 1 | STAFF COORDINATION MSA will coordinate Phase IV activities with the City staff for the completion of these activities are anticipated to be done remotely (e.g. email, phone): • Review Park and Recreation Committee Meeting #2 outcomes. • Review Public Engagement Campaign Strategy. • Discuss revised draft survey; finalize survey and distribution methods. • Prepare for Phase IV project meetings. TASK 2 | PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT CAMPAIGN We recognize that the City is committed to a strong effort to engage stakeholders with a set of strategies that are inclusive, creative, varied and clear. And, one that allows ease and eagerness of participation. We know there are groups that are typically difficult to reach, and we are proposing strategies that specifically attempt to reach these groups. MSA will work with the Park and Recreation Committee to prepare a communication strategy for the City’s use to guide outreach efforts. MSA will collaborate with City staff on the creation of a stakeholder database of key individuals throughout the City who can assist with dissemination of important information such as the parks survey and public open house. TASK 3 | PARKS SURVEYS Surveys are an important component of any multifaceted planning project — they are a convenient method of participation for stakeholders and they result in measurable data. We propose using online surveys to gather opinions about existing and desired park and recreation facilities and programming. MSA will draft the surveys for review by the City staff and Park Board at their first meeting. Links to the surveys can be provided through the City’s official website and promoted via methods outlined under Task 2. The City is responsible for printing any hard copies of the surveys, if desired, as well as entering any hard-copy responses into the online survey system. MSA will provide a summary report of the results of the surveys. 12/3/2019 Business Analyst https://bao.arcgis.com/esriBAO/index.html#1/1 Prepared by E Latitude: 43.09639 Longitude: -89 sri Lakeview Community .48933 Source: This infogr Lakeview Community Park Ring band of 0 - 1 aphic contains dat Park (0 - 1.5 mile .5 miles a provided by Esri, s) Esri and Infogroup.

TASK 4 | PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE MSA will facilitate one public open house to obtain input from the public on desired park and recreation improvements. We’ve found that residents typically want to show up, voice their opinions and leave. The open house format will allow people to spend as much or as little time as they like. The public open house will include a brief orientation and several interactive stations. Without knowing what public health orders will be in place, we are prepared to host this open house as a hybrid in-person/online meeting or fully online: 1. A hybrid meeting will include all activities in-person. The orientation presentation will be recorded, and all activities will be available in-person and in an online format after the meeting for people to complete as they have time. We’ve found having meeting activities online for people to do on their own time encourages greater participation. 2. A fully online open house would include a live, remote orientation presentation followed by interactive online activities. The orientation presentation will be recorded and activities posted online so residents can participate as they have the time. PHASE V PRELIMINARY RECOMMENDATIONS (MONTH 6) TASK 1 | PRELIMINARY PARK NEEDS Based on the work completed in Phases I-IV, MSA will develop a preliminary list of proposed park, trail, and recreation improvements. These proposed improvements will reference local and national trends with consideration to the National Recreation and Parks Association’s current Three Pillars: Conservation, Social Equality and Health/Wellness. TASK 2 | STAFF MEETING #2 – WORKING SESSION (RECOMMENDATIONS REVIEW) MSA will coordinate Phase V activities with City staff: • Review Phase IV outcomes. • Work through plan recommendations. TASK 3 | PARK AND RECREATION COMMITTEE MEETING #3 (RECOMMENDATIONS REVIEW) MSA will meet online with thePark and Recreation Committee to: • Review Phase IV outcomes. • Work through plan recommendations.

After plan adoption, MSA will provide a final digital copy of the plan, including any supporting documents. 9MSA PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH PARTNERSHIP Staff and elected officials have institutional knowledge which is invaluable to the success of the Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan. MSA will rely on the staff to provide this institutional knowledge through our working sessions and constant communication throughout the process. We view the staff as partners in this process and will rely on you to help with the following tasks: • Provide existing City GIS data (e.g. parks, trails, parcels, roads, wetlands, floodplains, water courses, etc.). • Provide all previous plans and documents for review by MSA relevant to this project, including available data concerning park use, existing planned improvements, past and current department budgets related to department revenues, capital improvements and operations expenditures. • Provide an up-to-date list of park facilities at each City park and data on the year of installation or renovation of park facilities, if available. • Act as a liaison to the Parks and Recreation Committee and other applicable committees and stakeholder groups. • Promote the park survey and public open house. City staff will have the primary role of promoting the park survey through existing media outlets (e.g. social media, traditional media, email listservs, etc). • Provide meeting agendas and minutes for all City meetings of this project. • Provide a location suitable for the proposed public open house. • Tabulate hard copies of the survey. Although the responses to the survey will be primarily collected online, MSA anticipates hard copies will be made available at the City offices for individuals that prefer to complete a hard copy. City staff will be responsible for inputting the results of any hard copy surveys returned to the City into a survey link provided by MSA. • Guide the process and provide feedback throughout the project. • Serve as the sole point of contact for resident questions about this project. 10 MSA PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH FEE PROPOSAL Our proposed lump sum fee is based on the described scope of services and includes all costs. We are open to negotiation and refinement of scope and fees. A full description on expenses follows. PHASE FEE Phase I: Outline Mission, Goals and Objectives $1,000 Phase II: Update Park Standards and Inventory $2,000 Phase III: Park Needs Assessment $3,000 Phase IV: Public Engagements/Qualitative Analysis $2,000 Phase V: Preliminary Recommendations $1,500 Phase VI: Draft Plan $4,000 Phase VII: Adoption $1,500 TOTAL NOT-TO-EXCEED $15,000 11MSA FEE PROPOSAL The City of Pine City is located in beautiful Pine County and situated along the Snake River at Cross Lake. The community takes immense pride in its fantastic recreational opportunities and parks facilities. The City works hard to continually update and improve the parks and recreation opportunities, and in 2019, hired MSA to complete a Parks and Recreation Systems Assessment that would function as the community’s 2030 Parks Master Plan. MSA’s parks and recreation planners, GIS professionals and engineers collaborated with City staff to complete the project on budget and on time. MSA assembled new park maps, verifying correct park boundaries, and created an interactive public engagement tool with ArcGIS Online. Using drone photography and videography, MSA produced artistic renditions of each park and their unique assets. The Parks & Recreation Inventory Tour app lives on the City’s website (https://pinecity.govoffice.com/parktour) and serves to promote Pine City’s extensive park system, communicate special events, and provide directions to each park. The Master Plan also includes a 10-year Action Plan for Implementation. This crucial piece of the plan document allows City staff and the council to efficiently manage the City’s resources to address improvements and expansion of the community’s recreation system. The action plan is designed to be reviewed annually in conjunction with City budgeting and capital improvement planning to make the best use of resources and continue improving the City’s parks for all. PARKS AND RECREATION SYSTEM ASSESSMENT Pine City, MN PROJECT SIMILARITIES Facilities & Operations Assessment Resource Planning Park System Promotion Implementation Guide 12 MSA REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS PROJECT SIMILARITIES Facilities & Operations Assessment Resource Planning Park System Promotion Implementation Guide 13MSA Middleton is known as “The Good Neighbor City,” a northwestern suburb of the capital city of Madison perched along the banks of Lake Mendota. Home to approximately 17,000 residents and witnessing tremendous, consistent growth, the City recognized the need to both fortify their existing park and recreational facilities as well as plan for the wise use of remaining acreage as the community continues to grow and parcels are absorbed by residential and retail development. Middleton leaders chose to begin the process with the development of a CORP and asked MSA to lead the study, public engagement and guide to implementation of the vision for the next five years and beyond. One of the community’s main goals for the CORP is to address the rapid influx of urban infill development in the community. As Middleton grows and residential properties such as apartment and multi-unit buildings become more popular, so does the demand for convenient and accessible outdoor space. City officials are concerned about having enough park land to meet future demand, as well as enough funding to support park maintenance, staffing, potential new park development and associated programming. MSA began Phase I of the CORP by reaching out to local sports organizations to assess their needs and how such needs align with City planning, available space and use agreements. Once all the localized information is collected, Phase II will contact surrounding communities and regional sports and recreation organizations to discuss potential partnership opportunities. The goal is to see where regional park and recreational needs align, and ultimately, to implement a variety of shared-use options including public sports fields, pools and trails to meet demand and balance investment between parties. A robust public engagement component was also key to the development of the CORP. The City expressed interested in gathering input from citizens as early in the planning process as possible, but due to restrictions associated with COVID-19, did not want any meetings to be held in person. MSA planners shifted to conduct the public input meeting entirely online, including activities that residents could participate in after the meeting ended. The meeting was recorded, and activities made available afterwards for those who were not able to attend at the scheduled time. When complete, the City of Middleton will have a clearly defined set of needs, wants, opportunities and potential partnerships to guide it toward the implementation of a new and exciting recreation plan — one that will provide a variety of engaging and accessible places for residents to visit.

They are committed to providing the recreational needs of current and future residents. Parks and open spaces provide a safe and healthy place for recreation all while beautifying and protecting the natural environment. In 2018, Hiawatha City officials realized that the previous park and recreation plan for the City was in need of updating. This updated document, the Parks and Recreation Vision Plan for the City of Hiawatha, is an extension of the old plan. It provides current insight in the existing conditions of the parks as well as concepts for a new 18-acre park in the northern part of Hiawatha that the City acquired. The purpose of the plan is to guide the continual improvement of the City’s parks and recreation areas, direct policy for parks and open space. It envisions a connected system of parks and open spaces throughout the community. All together, the plan provides a framework to guide long- and short-term decision making and investments in the system. The Hiawatha Parks and Recreation Vision Plan complements the directions established in the Hiawatha 2036 Comprehensive Plan, and provides detailed guidance on the development, management and operations of the park system. The direction is also based on the community’s expressed needs and desires from public engagement throughout the planning process. Specifically, the plan provides: • Information regarding demographic trends • An inventory of existing park and recreational facilities • An analysis of recreational needs and demands • Implementation strategies • Recommendations for a new park This plan identifies concepts for park development for the acquired new park space for different types of parks, trails, natural areas and recreational facilities. PARKS AND RECREATION VISION PLAN Hiawatha, IA PROJECT SIMILARITIES Site Analysis Public Engagement Long-range Planning REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS 15MSA The City of Baraboo, Village of West Baraboo, Village of North Freedom, Sauk County and MSA worked together to prepare Phase I of the Baraboo River Corridor Plan. The study area begins at North Freedom Park and extends eastward to the Glenville access point near STH 113. Phase I was adopted by all four entities in 2016 and recommendations are being implemented. To date, $1.176 million in funding has been secured for $2.3 million of projects from the Phase I plan. Due to the successes and momentum of the Phase I effort and related projects, Phase II was completed during 2018 and 2019. Phase II includes seven communities and two counties stretching from the west corporate limit of the Village of North Freedom through the corporate boundaries of the Cities of Elroy and Hillsboro (west branch). Both plans establish a unified vision for the future of the corridor, and guide its continual development as a full water trail that is ADA accessible for locals, visitors and tourists. The plans include conceptual site plans and recommendations for a range of improvements. Improvements focus on opportunities that will spur recreation, tourism and development to establish the region as the premiere water recreation destination in south-central Wisconsin. Between the Phase I and Phase II planning efforts, a Baraboo River Market Study was completed. This project took initial steps to identify a brand for the corridor and developed a marketing strategy and metrics to track the establishment of the Baraboo River as a recreation tourism destination. Plan recommendations include preliminary logo concepts and taglines, recommendations for demographic and geographic target marketing audience, messaging priorities, and specific marketing methods to use to promote the corridor.

The majority of the adjacent properties are agricultural uses. While this segment is quite scenic the nature of the speed of the water and the adjacent ownership create issues for access by the public. Between North Freedom Park and the Kohlmeyer Road bridge is an excellent spot for fishing. Catfish, Walleye, Muskie, Northern, Crappie and Bass have been known to frequent the area. This segment of the River is flows through the Village of North Freedom and has a blend of residential and agricultural uses adjacent to the river. This segment of the river corridor is transitional and moves from rural, into residential into a few industrial and commercial uses. The experience from the corridor itself largely remains rural in character. This segment of the river corridor largely urbanized and transitions from low density to medium density back again into lower density. There are range of uses from commercial, industrial, civic,park and residential. This area has a mix of architecturally and historically significant buildings, some are deteriorating and others are in need of demolition. These site provide opportunities for redevelopment.

As the City continues to add more families, quality of life plays a large role in how the community is viewed by people moving to the area as well as citizens already living in Durant. In the spring of 2019, the City of Durant requested the assistance of MSA to complete a 2030 Parks and Recreation Vision. The primary purpose of the plan and process is to educate and raise awareness of the importance of parks and recreation while ensuring that future investment in Durant’s park system meets the needs of the community. The planning effort kicked off in June 2019, and the plan represents input gathered from the community, stakeholders, and City staff. Preparation and adoption of this plan occurred over a 10-month time period. An online survey, crowdsource map application, stakeholder meetings, and community open houses and meetings helped guide the development of this plan by providing valuable input. Oversight for the project was provided by City staff and the Durant Parks Board. Meetings between the Parks Board and the consultant provided input for the plan content throughout the four phases of the project. When people talk about the places they love in a community, parks are typically at the top of the list. Parks are essential to the physical, economic, environmental and social health of cities and residents. Parks, trails, open space and recreation programs provide communities with many benefits. The purpose of the Durant 2030 Parks and Recreation Vision is to guide the City of Durant in maintaining its existing parks and recreational opportunities. Durant’s 2030 Parks and Recreation Vision provides current insight in the existing conditions of the parks, reviews the feedback received from community engagement activities, goals, an action plan for achieving the 2030 Vision, and provides concepts for the expansion and rehabilitation of the City’s recreational facilities. KELLY OAK’S PARK CONCEPTUAL SITE PLAN Peosta, IA Many of the new residents in Peosta are families with young children and there is strong community support for parks, trails and recreational opportunities in the City. In 2008, the City of Peosta was gifted a 17- acre property for parks and recreation development. Since then, the City has incrementally self-performed improvements to the property including minor grading & earthwork, timber stand improvement, storm sewer improvements, and the development of a disc golf course. MSA was engaged by the City in 2019 to complete conceptual engineering and opinion of probable construction costs for various improvements to the existing park including a trail loop, streambank stabilization, vehicle access & parking lot, playground, and a pavilion-restroom building. 2030 PARKS AND RECREATION VISION PLAN Durant, IA 16 MSA REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS Looking to their CORP as more than just a tool for funding, the Marathon County Department of Parks & Recreation was looking for a comprehensive guidebook for land acquisition and programming priorities that aims to shift the focus of the Department to the economic development initiatives of the County. As the “Healthiest County in the State,” Marathon County attracts many new residents craving the exposure to their outdoor recreational activities. Due to rather consistent population increase, the County needed to plan for long-term growth to maintain and expand levels of service to residents. To do this, MSA partnered with the County to not just assess the park system itself, but dive into best practices that would enable the Department to better execute its mission for their future. This would include budgeting, staffing, efficiency and prioritization of improvements, and how to better connect County communities with the plethora of natural amenities. Issues identified through the development of this plan have been taken up by both County staff and community stakeholders to collaboratively build off recommendations for the future, utilizing the CORP as a basis for continued engagement and capacity-building to further access and availability of recreational opportunities. COMPREHENSIVE OUTDOOR RECREATION PLAN Marathon County, WI 17MSA REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS 18 MSA Vilas Park is one of Madison’s oldest and well-loved parks. When William and Anna Vilas bequeathed the land to the City of Madison in 1906 “for the uses and purposes of a public park and pleasure ground,” they gave the residents of the City a public open space that has well served countless users for over one hundred years. Named for their son, Henry Vilas, the park was designed by a well-known period landscape gardener, O.C. Simonds. His signature prairie landscapes with lagoon systems is still prevalent at Vilas and Tenney Parks in Madison. Vilas Park is 45 acres along the shore of Lake Wingra. The original landscape was mostly bog land, which has been transformed into a meadow and lagoon open space with play areas, shelter/warming house for winter skating on the lagoon, trails and beach with beach house. A significant consideration for the future is the use of Vilas Park Drive, a collector road that cuts through the park. Originally, the Madison Park and Pleasure Drive Association oversaw the management and plan for Vilas Park in which Simonds planned a carriage path encircling the park. Today, the remnants of the carriage path design is still present in Vilas Park Drive. MSA worked closely with the Madison Parks Division to gather valuable input from City of Madison staff, neighborhood residents, key stakeholders and potential funding partners to craft a grounded, attractive and implementable Park Master Plan. Significant analysis of the site includes design information such as a tree inventory, sedimentation and runoff, historical and cultural elements, and pertinent relevant document review. The Master Plan will guide future park improvements over the next 100 years.

The community’s 2012 Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (CORP) identified a three-phase approach to expanding its recreational programming. Phase three — and perhaps the city’s crowning achievement to date — was the development of a $12 million regional aquatic center and recreational park complex at Witter Field. MSA was chosen to lead the design of the facility — a complex and ambitious project that was completed just over one year later, in June of 2020. The WRCC offers something for everyone: three pools including a tot pool with two water slides, spray features and a tot lazy river; a leisure pool with play area, basketball hoops, water walk, lazy river with a “rapids” action channel, tube water slide, plunge pool and body water slide; and a recreation pool that features basketball hoops, lap swimming, a zip line feature, diving board and climbing wall. The main aquatic center building and bath house is a clean, modern design—home to an admissions lobby, concessions, community gathering room and changing rooms. Outside, visitors can stroll the well-lit, landscaped property on pedestrian paths, lounge along the pool deck under colorful shade structures, sun themselves on a grass sunbathing berm or picnic within an airy park shelter. For those looking for more activity, a new zero-depth splashpad, tennis and pickleball courts, playground and skate park provide plentiful opportunities. The park was also designed to accommodate winter use, with the bath house lobby converting into a warming shelter in cold weather, the circular vehicular drop-off zone transforming into a recreational ice skating venue, and a separate area designated as a place to host low-board hockey. The community celebrated the grand opening of the Wisconsin Rapids Recreation Complex (WRCC) and Aquatic Center on July 1, 2020, and invited very enthusiastic guests into the facility in limited numbers on July 6.

Because of the narrow 50-foot right of way, the project involves a conventional right-of-way plat, coordination with property owners, environmental/wetland coordination and mitigation, pedestrian bridge structure design, and major utility coordination. The Gateway Park and Cranberry Creek construction included storm sewer/storm water basin construction, right-of-way acquisition, and an ADA- compliant multi-use path and Village park with fishing pier, kayak and canoe launch, stone retaining walls, park and street lighting, paver parking lot, village entry sign, various vegetation and gardens, and other mark amenities including trash receptacles, benches, picnic tables and bike racks extending along the river. This project was administered and designed in accordance with Safe Drinking Water, Community Development Block Grant and Stewardship funding requirements. MSA’s responsibilities include project cost estimating, easement acquisitions, roadway geometrics design, stormwater basin layout, utility design calculations, client meetings, bidding administration, public meetings and Stewardship grant-writing. GATEWAY PARK AND CRANBERRY TRAIL Biron, WI PROJECT SIMILARITIES Public Engagement (In-person) Park Planning REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS The City of Appleton worked with MSA to transform the popular Erb Park and Swimming Pool. The $10.5-million project provides new aquatics and overall park amenities, including a 50-meter competitive pool, recreation pool and water slide. In addition, the project entailed construction of a new pavilion, bath house and pool equipment building, new playground equipment with poured-in-place surface, connecting paths, grilling stations, additional parking, relocation of the sledding hill and ice skating rinks within the park, reconstruction of the basketball court and addition of two new youth tennis courts. Verona hired MSA to work with the Parks, Forestry, & Recreation Committee to update the City’s Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan. As part of that effort, MSA developed a park master plan for Fireman’s Park. The plan identified $3 million in future infrastructure projects over a five-year period. The park is home to the City’s only outdoor aquatic facility, Goose Lake and Beach. The plan replaced and updated facilities including a new bathhouse, splash pad, trail connection to the Ice Age Trail, beach improvements, fishing and picnic areas, playground, parking lot, kayak/canoe launch, overlook and general vegetation clean up/invasive species eradication. The City of Waupun retained MSA to complete a comprehensive park and outdoor recreation plan (CORP) update and a park master plan for McCune Park. The park previously contained the City’s swimming area and sand beach. These facilities became obsolete and were closed when the City opened its new Aquatic Center. The vision for McCune Park is to convert the old swimming beach into a naturalized amenity with boardwalk and overlooks. New trails with fitness stations will create a variety of opportunities for residents and visitors to stroll through restored prairie and woodland and provide habitat for wildlife. Other amenities include ADA-accessible play features, nature-based playground, pickle ball courts, a new restroom building, open air shelter and enhanced landscaping.

We then obtain commitments from all individuals on the project team to complete the work as identified within the proposed schedule. This approach helps to foster a team mentality and results in personal accountability of all team members involved. In addition, MSA utilizes a client liaison system, in which a single professional is responsible for all communication with a particular client. This “single-point-of-contact” approach ensures that your community will receive consistent, personalized communication throughout the duration of your project, and well into the future. MSA submits this proposal with the understanding and commitment that our staff and equipment will be available to accomplish this project and any future projects within realistic timetables, as designated by the council. Our team has the capacity to handle this and any future projects for your community, while providing excellent service. COMMITMENT TO TECHNOLOGY High-quality information systems are critical to our firm’s operations. MSA equips employees and clients with the latest technology, enabling core business relationships with other employees, clients, and additional external partners through digital networks. Our advanced information systems accelerate MSA’s readiness and responsiveness, strengthening our offerings and enhancing our clients’ satisfaction. • Our technical professionals utilize AutoCAD Civil 3D, which allows them to fully understand how their infrastructure designs will hold up when constructed. • MSA’s use of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), Microsoft Teams and VPN enables our staff to remain connected to their clients and projects, even when they’re on the go. • Advanced video conference technology empowers our team members to interact with other MSA employees and clients remotely, allowing us to consistently apply the knowledge of our strongest internal experts, regardless of their location. MSA’s commitment to technology enables our professionals to provide the highest level of service possible. Technology at MSA serves a multi-tiered purpose: cutting-edge technology enhances the quality of each project we deliver, while also allowing us to work more efficiently and effectively. 28 MSA KEY PERSONNEL 29MSA REFERENCES City of Hartford MIKE HERMANN | PARKS AND RECREATION DIRECTOR P: (262) 670-3730 E: mikeh@ci.hartford.wi.us Project: Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan Key Staff: Becky Binz, Dan Schmitt City of Pine City LEZLIE SAUTER | COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR P: (320) 629-2575 E: lsauter@pinecitygov.com Project: Parks and Recreation System Assessment Key Staff: Kate Eiynck, Claire Michelson, Chris Janson REFERENCES City of Middleton MATT AMUNDSON | DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC LANDS, RECREATION AND FORESTRY P: (608) 577-2459 E: mamundson@cityofmiddleton.us Project: Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan Key Staff: Becky Binz, Dan Schmitt, Raine Gardner Village of Waunakee SUE MCDADE | COMMUNITY SERVICES DIRECTOR P: (608) 850-5992 E: smcdade@vil.waunakee.wi.us Project: Comprehensive Bicycle, Pedestrian and Outdoor Recreation Plan Key Staff: Becky Binz City of Hiawatha KELLY WILLADSEN | PARKS AND RECREATION DIRECTOR P: (319) 393-1515 E: parkdirect@hiawatha-iowa.com Project: Parks and Recreation Vision Key Staff: Chris Janson, Claire Michelson ANY PROPRIETOR/PARTNER/EXECUTIVEOFFICER/MEMBER EXCLUDED?
