The design of the park included a large rain garden, shoreline plantings and two intermittent creek beds leading from the rain garden and the "hidden" spring, respectively. In the 16 years since then, the maintenance of the park; specifically its natural features, has consisted mostly of an annual mowing in the fall. The shoreline area was given more specialized maintenance in its early years to ensure establishment of native species, however, it's been at least 10 years since any active management. With this more passive management, some areas have become overrun with weeds, trees and other non-native species. Staff met with two contractors with knowledge of native landscapes and received quotes on a multi-year plan to reestablish the native plantings intended for the rain garden, shoreline and other areas. We are recommending entering into a contract with Prairie Restorations to help us reestablish the intended plant mix in the prescribed areas. As you'll note in the proposal, some areas will need complete tear-out and replanting, while other areas may only require spot treatment, controlled burns or other targeted maintenance. Their proposal also contains some activities on which the city and/or volunteers could assist. COST AND SOURCE(S) OF FUNDING: 2024 - $7,770; 2025 - $1,425; Alternate to save $785 in 2024 w/volunteer planting. Parks Maint. Budget REQUESTED ACTION: Motion to recommend approval of a contract with Prairie Restorations, Inc. as presented, for services in 2024 & 2025, with the option to provide volunteer help as outlined.

Company Background: Prairie Restorations, Inc. (PRI) has been dedicated to the restoration and management of native plant communities for more than 45 years. We are fortunate to have worked with thousands of clients on a wide variety of projects in both the public and private sectors throughout the Upper Midwest. The PRI staff of restoration professionals operate out of five Minnesota locations. As a full-service restoration company, PRI is able to provide our clients expertise and service in all facets of native landscape restoration. Along with consulting, design, installation, and land management services, we also produce our own local eco-type seed and plant materials which are used on all of our projects. The PRI Team is committed to and passionate about protecting and enhancing our valuable natural resources. It is this dedication that is brought to every one of our projects. We are proud to offer the best expertise, services, and products available in the industry and appreciate the opportunity to provide you with this proposal. Establishing a native landscape on this property will provide a long term, ecologically sound landscape that is adapted to the existing conditions of the site. This native landscape will not require irrigation, black dirt, or other soil amendments. It will add a distinctive look to the property as well as provide valuable habitat for songbirds, butterflies, bees, and other pollinators. B. Project Overview: 1. The project area will be seeded with native grasses and wildflowers of varying types to adapt to woodland, wet, and part-sun conditions. 2. To establish this planting, the site will be treated with herbicide to kill existing weeds, burned, seeded with native grasses and wildflowers, and where needed--mulched with straw and /or covered with straw erosion control blanket to protect the seeding and enhance germination. 3. Optionally, native wildflower and grass/sedge plugs will be planted in specific areas to enhance the diversity and aesthetics of the project. C. Site preparation: 1. Property owner will remove/mow trees and woody vegetation before spring of 2024. 2. In areas with actively growing vegetation, apply a glyphosate herbicide (Roundup® or equivalent) and a directions. 3. Remove the dead vegetation by implementing a prescribed burn using appropriate procedures, equipment and permits. nd 4. Following the burn, allow regrowth to occur. Apply a 2 application of glyphosate herbicide (Roundup® or equivalent) and a triclopyr herbicide (Vastlan® or equivalent) with appropriate surfactants, as per egetation. rd 5. Allow the site to green up, followed by a 3 application of a glyphosate herbicide (Roundup® or equivalent) and a triclopyr herbicide (Vastlan® or equivale minimum of 25 days before disturbing the vegetation with other procedures. D. Seed and Seeding: th 1. Acceptable seeding dates for native species are in the spring or summer before August 10 or in the fall th between September 20 and freeze-up. 2. All seed will be applied by hand broadcasting. 3. Raking will follow all grass seeding. 4. The seed mixes will consist of the following species and amounts: Grass Seed Mixed Height Mesic Prairie Grass Mix: 2 lbs / project area 20% Big Bluestem, 20% Side Oats Grama, 5% Canada Wild Rye, 5% Prairie Dropseed, 40% Little Bluestem, 10% Indian Grass all by PLS weight. Tall Wet Prairie Grass Mix: 0.37 lbs / project area 40% Big Bluestem, 10% Fringed Brome, 5% Canada Wild Rye, 5% Switch Grass, 25% Little Bluestem 15% Indian Grass, all by PLS weight. Woodland Edge Grass Mix: 0.37 lbs / project area 30% Big Bluestem, 10% Fringed Brome, 2% Fox Sedge, 5% Poverty Oat Grass, 8% Canada Wild Rye, 20% Virginia Wild Rye, 2% Bottlebrush Grass, 23% Fowl Bluegrass, all by PLS weight bƚƷĻʹ A cover crop will be sown along with the native grasses at a rate of approximately 15 lbs./acre. Cover crop is an annual grass species that germinates quickly and will reduce the risk of soil erosion on the site. Oats will be used for a spring or summer seeding, and winter wheat will be used for a fall seeding. Wildflower Seed Mixed Height Mesic Prairie Forb (Wildflower) Mix: 5.5 oz / project area 2% Yarrow, 4% Fragrant Giant Hyssop, 4% Leadplant, 3% Common Milkweed, 14% White Prairie Clover, 18% Purple Prairie Clover, 4% Stiff Sunflower, 4% Common Ox-eye, 3% Bush Clover,2% Wild Bergamot, 14% Black-eyed Susan, 5% Stiff Goldenrod, 4% Showy Goldenrod, 4% Smooth Aster, 5% Hoary Vervain, 10% Golden Alexander, all by PLS weight. Tall Wet Prairie Forb (Wildflower) Mix: 1.5 oz / project area 3% Fragrant Giant Hyssop, 3% Swamp Milkweed, 2% Common Milkweed, 8% White Prairie Clover, 10% Purple Prairie Clover, 2% Canada Tick Trefoil, 3% Boneset, 4% Joe-Pye Weed, 2% Sneezeweed, 4% Common Ox-eye, 12% Tall Blazing Star, 3% Wild Bergamot, 3% Mountain Mint, 10% Black-eyed Susan, 8% Stiff Goldenrod, 4% Smooth Aster, 3% Tall Meadow Rue, 4% Blue Vervain, 2% Ironweed, 10% Golden Alexander, all by PLS weight.

E. Erosion Control: 1. Cover crop will be sown along with the native grasses. 2. Erosion blanket (S150bn all areas. F. Plants and Planting: 1. Optionally, following the implementation of any erosion control measures, the planting will be further diversified with native wildflower and/or grass plants (plugs or 4-inch pots). These will be planted individually in appropriate microhabitats throughout, or in designated areas of the project. The plants used will consist primarily of species other than those previously seeded. 2. Upon the property owner's request, PRI can increase or decrease the number of live plants used. Increasing the number of live plants used will increase overall cost but help increase plant diversity (certain species are only available as live plants) and improve the prairie's overall aesthetic by helping to establish sooner. Lowering the number of plugs will reduce overall cost but increase the time for some flowers to bloom and decrease overall plant diversity. 3. Plant a total of 420 plugs. 4. Plant a total of 54 4-inch pots (or similar sized pots). 5. Plant a total of 9 1-gallon pots. (Ferns) 6.

Management: 1.Management (maintenance) plays a vital role in the eventual success of any native landscape installation, especially during the establishment period. Active management of your native landscape is highly recommended to give the project the best opportunity for long-term success. Management of your established section will begin before management of the re-installation. 2.During the germination year, the project area may need to be mowed to control annual weed development. If reducing competition. Mowing may also be necessary if the weeds are about to set seed. Optimum cutting height, depending on the wildflower species present, is typically 4 to 6 inches. It is important that the clippings are finely mulched in order to prevent smothering. PRI can provide the mowing services if desired. Please refer to the cost section of this proposal for a mowing quote. 3.In years following the first growing season, Integrated Plant Management (IPM) services are utilized to control annual, biennial, and perennial weed species within the developing native landscape. Typical IPM services include spot herbicide spraying, spot mowing, or hand weeding. These services are billed on a per trip cost agreed upon prior to the growing season. Rough estimates may be provided in the cost section of this proposal for these future management activities. 4.Prescribed burning is a highly effective management tool and may be recommended for your project as it matures. Burning stimulates native species to grow more robustly and also help to deter the presence of many non-native and/or woody species. Prescribed burning, if desired, will be provided as a separate lump sum cost. 5. ccur early in the spring, as soon as conditions permit. Spring Dormant Mowing, if desired, will be provided as a separate lump sum cost. H. Anticipated Management: The following table conveys the anticipated management procedures for your project during the first 3 growing seasons. Estimates for installation and Year 1 procedures are provided in the cost section of this proposal. For future management estimates, please reach out to Rebecca Charles (rcharles@prairieresto.com).

Categories:Important Hello Mark - We have asked our current lawn Service R.J. Richard Company and Prairie Restoraons, Inc. for quote to bring back the nave planng areas in Hidden Springs Park. Both email quotes of proposed work, melines and quotes are aached. Aer site visits with each contractor and discussion on their respecve quotes, sta would recommend going with Prairie Restoraon, Inc. with them perform opon #1 fall planng in 2024. Broken down they propose to prep the worst areas with overgrown weeds in spring & summer of 2024 with a series of chemical treatment and burning for $2,600.00. The prepped area would then be replanted in the fall with plugs, pots and ferns for $2,675.00. Opon 2 was for volunteers to perform this work for $785.00 less. Areas along the lake are in good condion and would only need service seeding and erosion control for $2,525.00.The annual maintenance would began in 2025 with items 13 & 14 for $1,425.00. Total cost for Prairie Restoraon to perform the work is $9,300.00 over the next two years.

Good aernoon, Thank you for your paence while I was locang the speci ŋ c types of plants to reinstall at Hidden Springs rain gardens and shoreline. Going o of the blue print from the original installaon I was able to ŋ nd 95% of the exact same plants. There are 4 that I was not able to ŋ nd in the exact type, but I was able to ŋ nd something very similar. Also with it being towards the end of the season there were some plants that are currently out of stock. I do have full con ŋ dence that if awarded this project come spring me our nursery will have those few plants ready for you. Like stated above, I was able to track down the same with some similar plants from the original installaon. For this replanng project I am quong the quanes of each type at 50% of originally installed. While following the original scope for planng, these areas are meant to be le to grow wild and cross pollinate with each other. With that being said other than manually pulling noceable weeds in these areas keeping them weed free would not be realisc. With the proper maintenance of the yearly cung back in the fall me, that would be the best me to pull as many weeds as possible while everything is short and not in the germinang stages. Assuming the previous proposal of us cung back the rain gardens and shoreline area this year so that come spring me we will have open areas to work with for planng we could complete this for $17,150. That quoted price may have some variance due to any increases that the nurseries implement starng in the spring, but we would honor labor, hauling, disposal, and equipment rates from this year. Please feel free to give me a call with any quesons.

Hi Teresa- I will provide the schedule of teams at LaMotte as soon as I am able. The outdoor ice does not get scheduled until mid December. I have not had enough interest regarding dryland, so I am putting that request on hold. Thank you.

Good Afternoon- I am inquiring to see if the city of Centerville is willing to grant Centennial Youth Hockey access to LaMotte Park this year once the outdoor ice is ready to skate on. Centerville has been kind enough to grant access the last 3 years and we hope the Park & Rec Department will allow Centennial Youth Hockey to use the park during the work week.

Minnesota DNR State Forest Nursery accepting seedlings orders 1 tŷƚƷƚ ĭƩĻķźƷʹ aźƓƓĻƭƚƷğ 5ĻƦğƩƷƒĻƓƷ ƚŅ bğƷǒƩğƌ wĻƭƚǒƩĭĻƭ The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources State Forest Nursery is accepting orders for spring 2024 seedlings beginning Oct. 25, 2023. With approximately 3 million seedlings available for the spring planting season, this is a great opportunity for landowners to reforest their property to create wildlife habitat, shelterbelts, or a woodland oasis. {źƓĭĻ ЊВЌЊͲ ƷŷĻ aźƓƓĻƭƚƷğ 5bw͸ƭ {ƷğƷĻ CƚƩĻst Nursery has developed techniques to ensure the highest-quality seedling stock. The State Forest Nursery offers 26 species of native bareroot trees and shrubs. However, seedling selection and availability decreases after the first few weeks of sales. Visit the State Forest Nursery seedling ordering webpage (mndnr.gov/forestry/nursery/ordering.html) to view the available species and access the tree seedling order form. A minimum order of 500 seedlings is required when purchasing from the State Forest Nursery. This is roughly the number of seedlings needed to plant one acre of bare land. Orders can be tailored in increments of 100 for each species. Prices vary depending on species, with the price as low as $195 for 500 seedlings. The State Forest Nursery also offers two pre-selected seedlings packets, simplifying the decision-making process. The conifer packet includes 250 white spruce and 250 red pine seedlings to add more greenery to woodlands in winter. The fruiting trees and shrubs packet features a mixture of chokecherry, black cherry, nannyberry, hackberry, and wild plum to create a pollinator-friendly habitat. 2 Landowners can receive assistance identifying the trees and shrubs best suited to their property and woodland management goals by reaching out to a local DNR forester (mndnr.gov/woodlands/cfm-map.html). Seedlings must be planted within Minnesota. The last day to order seedlings is Friday, March 29, 2024. Landowners interested in planting fewer than 500 seedlings are encouraged to contact their local Soil and Water Conservation District (maswcd.org) to learn if they offer a tree sale program. Some SWCDs also offer planting services. ### Minnesota Department of Natural Resources | mndnr.gov Email us: info.dnr@state.mn.us | Call 651-296-6157 or 888-646-6367 SUBSCRIBER SERVICES: Manage Preferences | Help | Sign-up for other Minnesota DNR notifications This email was sent to alewis@centervillemn.com using GovDelivery Communications Cloud 3
