Presenter recommends Phase 1 parking expansion to add just over 100 spaces at park
Summary
A presenter outlined "option 3" for a park redesign and recommended a Phase 1 that would add roughly 100 parking spaces via three double-stack rows, while noting future phases could expand the park further.
A presenter described "option number 3" for the park redesign and recommended a Phase 1 that focuses on new parking to meet immediate needs.
"Option number 3 on what you're looking at is the general layout of where things would be located. It ... hints at the color palette. It hints at scale," the Presenter said, adding that the drawings are intended to capture layout, spacing and ensure components work together. The presenter recommended a parking layout showing three double-stack rows designed "to get us to just over a 100" spaces as an initial build-out.
Staff emphasized that the project may be phased. The Presenter said phase 2 could follow with additional park build-out once the layout is finalized; the timeline and scope of later phases depend on council contributions and other funding decisions. The Presenter also noted a unit-price map error in the bid documents but said it did not affect the overall contract price.
On operations, a staff member warned that recently transferred, gated portions of the site have increased routine maintenance needs, including daily checks and weekend inspections, and urged the council to consider maintenance implications when approving initial work. The staff member recommended forming a staff-led committee to shepherd the park project and named Ross Nelson, Brenda Gaskin and Carol as proposed members.
The council heard the conceptual design and a recommendation to move forward with a parking-first Phase 1; no final decision or vote on the design was recorded in the transcript.
