a. Assist with completion of Rainbow Park Master Plan update. Provide support to staff or consultant on project and participate in public process as opportunities are presented (Mary Kay, Marilyn, Marty):
-Comments from the February 8th open house were compiled and handed out, and from these suggestions Michael presented 3 alternate drawings drafted by Neils Lunceford. The following is a quick overview of options:
-Alternate #1: The back tract would become a BMX area, expand parking at the entrance, add 2 additional volleyball courts, tot lot, pavilion, and expand the current skate park into existing dirt area.
-Alternate #2: The back tract would become a dog park, formal parking area, including the same additional options as in Alt. #1.
-Alternate #3: The back tract will be left as natural open area, and would include same additional options as Alt. #1.
-As soon as final drafts are complete by Neils Lunceford they will be displayed in the Recreation Center for additional public comments, and a press release/ad will be placed in the paper prior to the March 8th open house at which time the public is invited to stop by to comment.
b. Assist with design and selection of new playground equipment for Rainbow Park, as outlined in the Rainbow Park Master Plan Update and as allowed in the 2010 budget. (Frank & Pat):
