This <br />project did not score well in its category but funding is still being pursued. <br /> <br />• The 2025 Parks Project (Arden Oaks Park & Freeway Park), was presented to <br />Council at the Work Session on 3/11/24 which included PTRC <br />motions/recommendations. On April 8, 2024 City Council approved professional <br />services with Bolton & Menk to begin community engagement and provide planning <br />level cost estimates with the end goal of determining the project scope to move <br />forward with into design. Staff does not have exact dates for everything at this time <br />but next steps are: <br />o April/May - Online Community surveys – Direct mailer will be sent to the <br />adjacent neighborhoods with a QR code to take the survey. Posters will be <br />installed at each park and at City Hall also with the QR code. The survey will <br />also be shared on social media and the City website. <br />o May 28th - City Council Work Session – to present final online survey report, <br />review planning level cost estimates and determine final project scope. <br />o July/August – Concept design with updated cost estimates and host Open- <br />House event <br />o August/September – PTRC and City Council involvement and final cost <br />estimates <br />o Fall 2024 – lock in purchase of play structures <br />o Feb/March 2025 - Project bidding <br />o April 2025 – Award construction contract <br />o Summer/Fall 2025 - Construction <br />Staff will keep PTRC up-to-speed with the Community Outreach events as the dates <br />get nailed down. PTRC members are encouraged to complete the online survey and <br />attend the Open-House event when that takes place in the near future to provide their <br />direct input. <br /> <br />• Arden Manor Park Hardcourt Construction – City staff has applied for the DNR <br />Outdoor Recreation Grant Program to pursue funding for this project.
