3.08 Propose guidelines for the development of public art and programs in the community's parks, including a review of benefits and investment levels that would achieve the community's goals. These guidelines would be recorded in Memorandum #15. 3.09 Propose "best practices" related to maintenance and operations, design and construction delivery strategies, environmental stewardship, capital and operations funding, partnering, sustainability, energy use (or energy development), and other innovations. Best practices will be framed in Memorandum #16. 3.10 Meet with the PARMPUT to review the system-wide plan, proposed program priorities, policies, guidelines, and best practices. During this meeting we need to determine if there are individual parks or park components that should be further refined in focused master plans. How parks are selected for more focused master plans will be determined in concert with the PARMPUT, but we might look to the immediacy of potential change, the current status of the park and the age of existing features, or even the potential of a park to demonstrate key directions and policies posed by this master planning effort. 3.11 Adjust the draft system-wide plan and supporting elements based on input from the PARMPUT. 3.12 Develop individual park master plans for selected parks as identified by the PARMPUT (assume eight such plans will be developed). Master plans will demonstrate, during this task, the basic park program, optimal configuration of components within the park, key relationships between the park and nearby development, special features or focal points of the park, and the character of the park and the anticipated experience of the park for users. 3.13 Meet with the PARMPUT to review the individual park master plans. 3.14 Adjust the individual park master plans based in input from the PARMPUT. 3.15 Conduct Community Meeting #3 to present the system-wide master plan, the policies and guidelines, and the individual park master plans. This meeting may be formatted as an open house, where participants can view elements of the plan that are their particular area of interest, and where a presentation can be made that offers a general overview of the directions of the master plan and its impact on the community. We will summarize the input provided by participants for review by the PARMPUT. 3.16 Assemble a summary of the work of Stage Three for use by city staff and the PARMPUT in updates to city boards and commissions, and for informing stakeholder groups and the community about the progress of the master planning process. We will participate in an update to the Parks and Recreation Commission and the City Council as a part of this task.
