the first stages of the planning process, we will use the PARMPUT as our guide, but also seek the input of others as key elements of the master plan come together. Stage Three: Define This stage is about definition of the core elements of the park and recreation system master plan, using the findings of the first stages as the basis, and focusing on The Vision as the foundation. One of the more important decisions to be made about the master plan will also occur during this stage—the determination of the components beyond those specifically requested in the city's RFP that will be incorporated into the document—or even determining which requested components could be framed and more fully articulated in a separate, follow-up process. We recognize that funding for projects in cities are mutable, especially in today's economic environment. But we also know that the key deliverable for this entire master planning process is The Vision, and that some parts of the complementary master plan might be incorporated in a more incremental fashion. A decision about the final composition of the master plan will be made in concert with the PARMPUT, but it would not diminish the integrity of the core component of the master plan. In the end, this stage of the work will produce policy directions and plan refinements, and a draft master plan will result. Stage Three Tasks 3.01 Meet with the PARMPUT to review the work of Part One: The Vision, and provide an overview of the key tasks and deliverables anticipated during Part Two: The Master Plan. We will also work with the PARMPUT and city staff to determine which components identified in Part Two are central to the master plan, and which, if any, can be delayed (based on a better understanding of project budgets). 3.02 Frame the "plan" that demonstrates larger scale changes to the park and recreation system, including (but not necessarily limited to) the need or opportunity for new park facilities in the community, a transition in use or activity for existing parks, the introduction of special park features or attractions, and the ways in which parks interface with other aspects of the community (development, neighborhoods, infrastructure, natural systems, streets and trails). 3.03 Update definitions and standards for the park and recreation system, including general terms and definitions, general standards applied to various park types, and the classification of parks and park facilities. New definitions and quantitative standards for park facilities will be based on the research conducted in Stage One, and the translation of those findings into the system-wide plan, and they will be recorded in Memorandum #10. 3.04 Establish program priorities for the recreation, historical, and cultural systems based on the system-wide plan, defining the optimal conditions and locations for the application of each program type in Roseville. Program priorities will be documented in Memorandum #11. 3.05 Propose policies and priorities for the park system using the classification methods posed in Task 3.03 and for park programs and services based on dialog with the PARMPUT and stakeholder groups. Policies and priorities will be recorded in draft form in Memorandum #12. 3.06 Propose policies and priorities for preserving and restoring natural features and amenities that benefit the community as a whole, making clear the nexus between those features and the park and recreation system. Policies and priorities will be recorded in draft form in Memorandum #13. 3.07 Propose policies and priorities for managing environmental quality, habitat, ecosystem protection, and enhancement of water bodies in park areas of the community. Policies and priorities will be recorded in draft form in Memorandum #14.
