Title

PARKS MASTER PLAN UPDATE

 

Background

WSB and Associates was hired in 2018 to conduct the City of Blaine’s first Parks Master Plan.   This will give the City a 10-15-year vision plan for the 66 City parks currently in our system.  Bob Slipka from WSB will give an update on the overall plan as well as review both the Aquatore and Happy Acres Park concept plans to allow the City Council to give feedback.  Staff has also reviewed the Aquatore Park plan with our main stakeholders including Fogerty Arena staff, Senior Center staff, Park Board, and the Blaine Festival.  Once we receive all feedback WSB will start creating a phasing plan for each park along with dollar figures for each improvement to Aquatore and Happy Acres Park.  WSB will have the final Parks Master Plan for the City Council by April.
