It I'm gonna have Superintendent of Parks and Forestry Joe Kirlan. Okay, come up with me He was instrumental in Coronating this and and guiding this process with our consultant as well working with key stakeholder groups as Well as the Parks and Forestry Marina Commission This evening. We have some slides. We just want to give the committee kind of an executive summary of the highlights of the plan and if you would So, you know the park is Has been existence for you know, it was a quarry. It was a Functioning quarry for many many years the city purchased it in 1943 and in 1963 started a started to actually convert it into, you know, parkland area. There was numerous Editions as well as master plans over the years and And several elements of those master plans were were implemented Probably the biggest that That we we we had was if you remember the the JC water slide that was very popular who was one the few early in in existence and Actually, the plan was to actually expand and build upon it That never happened unfortunately, but but over time it became Tired and it needed to be it was becoming unsafe And after you know about 25 years of operation. It was removed In the swimming activity with that not being there It needed needed some some energy and some some rebirth so Part of that is we've been fortunate to partner with some private operators to provide some swimming apparatus and re-energize and Activate the swimming area with a private vendor It's it's been a great partnership but During this this short time with working with the private vendor that it's become evident that The quarry is is a real gem for our community Unfortunately, it's it's it's under underutilized and underappreciated in the and With this master plan process it became quite evident that this could really be a showcase piece of our park system as well as our community as well as support Tourism activity in the community. So as part of this process Joe and his staff along with Grave engineers and architects Went through a process and they did some inventory analysis early on they looked at what is existing What what's what's at the park today? We know we have the swimming area We have the the shelter so forth, which is kind of during the summer months It's the headquarters for the swimming operations during the winter time. It's used for public. So it's a dual purpose It's an older facility. It's been renovated numerous times But unfortunately, it's just not the most conducive to both activities either for a Shelter for park rental for events or for a headquarters for swimming operations We have the Frisbee Gulf that's along or we have numerous trails for a passive and active recreation There's there's a dated playground That is available. So some of this through this process. They identified what was existing today What needs repair what what needs help and then the next phase was Engaging with with the community who are the you know Who are the key stakeholders who who uses the park and and others that would love to learn more about the park and learn What are the opportunities? So Grave along with Joe and his staff again met and had several key stakeholder meetings about hey What can we do here to make this a better community asset? For not only for our local residents, but potentially maybe draw from outside because of the its size and it's a unique characteristic in natural environment that could really be Leveraged into making something great that could be a draw for the area outside of the city for instance So as part of this they the consultants after taking all that information in from from the the key stakeholders and learning what what the needs and what the wants were came up with about three to four Alternative designs and concepts in a real broad-based in what you see tonight or just some you know things that are examples that are throughout park systems and available as kind of a an ID generator an idea generator to Visualize what could be potentially? Rebuilt there are an imagined at the quarry Then after those concepts there was another round of meetings again Joe and his staff and meeting with the key stakeholders the consultants Kind of summarized and there was a ranking process where we actively had members Go up and and say what's your number one? Deficiency or what would you like to see in terms of an added feature and so forth through that process? there came a natural progression of really About a little over a dozen dozen and a half Items that are really focused on for future master plan Development so that's what some of the numbering on old MacLachor is within the net the master plan that you have in front of you This evening as well We would go to the next slide. So one of them that really came out was you know, this is a beautiful area But it's really not known and not really seen and utilized to its fullest extension And one of the things was we really could use a community center similar to what we have at D land park or at Kiwanis Park for instance, that's a year-round facility that is specific to Rentals for the public in other words and and today we don't have that again We're because it's seasonal that our current facility there. It's small and it's it's Used for summertime for the headquarters for the swimming operation. So it's really not available to the public. So in order for the public to actually Rent a space I have an event there have a family picnic a reunion a graduation party a wedding for instance There we really don't have a facility that can use that natural backdrop in that natural Beautiful spot at the quarry. So one of the things that came out right away was we need a dedicated Facility and that's what this is now. This isn't what it's going to end up being this is just again a visualization a concept This is high-level master plan, but they wanted to the the the the consultant group wanted to visualize and say hey We could have it overlooking. It could be a lot of glass Use that as the natural amphitheater backdrop. So that was one of the the key items some of the other areas they they talked about enhancing the beach and and reactivating in that and getting that more more Energized and more user-friendly So they talk about a new tiki hut or a little shelter area and this would be in this location of where the Former water slide was today even the ruins. I as I would call it the foundation is kind of still there It's just kind of no man's land. It's it's just an Afterthought because it was expensive to consider. How do we take out the foundation? What do we do? And we didn't want to get too far into it without having a Plans for the long-term future. This is an idea again tiki hut could have a concession stand They talked about maybe a beer garden in there Again, it could be maybe just a rental spot for for picnickers that want to have a birthday party at the beach And have swimming as long so again another another opportunity there There's several items. You know, there's there's there's things about enhancing signage in trail improvement What I'm focusing on some of the more bigger capital items that are in the master plan Again here would be another concept of maybe an open shelter with an open fireplace that could be used for rentals and Have again a little bit separate from the beach area could just be another area again, they've taken that maybe not building a shelter and maybe just having a fire pit again using it as a place to gather and Recreate and have have a nice nice atmosphere around it So last last slide is just kind of a grand kind of overview. It kind of shows where in the south side Where the current playground is and somewhere where the Frisbee is is where they're proposing maybe this grand rental Pavilion in other words along with redesigning the existing Main shelter make it open make it make it a little bit more conducive to the operations again adding glass because right now It's kind of a barrier. It's a Concrete black building and it really blocks the beach as you're driving by So ultimately The this is a master plan and I'm going to turn it kind of over to Joe here and let him talk about The master plan how it fits into what is called our comprehensive park and recreational Plan there's it's two separate documents But we need today this plan and we're looking for your approval to be incorporated So it can be added to our comp and rec plan and ultimately once it's in that other plan It becomes eligible for grants and other other the DNR funding opportunities for either pigeon River Restoration or Park and open space funding for other activities. So It was a very lengthy process About almost three-quarters of a year And again very collaborative and I really want to Recognize Joe because his team and his effort with this project has been many many hours and I want if you don't mind I'd like to have Joe they're kind of Finalize kind of where we're at and how it's going to be ultimately incorporated in the comp plan Thank You David It's gonna really touch basic kind of what David said too You know this has been three-quarters of a year we started working with Grave in February, so But going back before that In 2013 is the first time we had a public private lease with the quarry beach and That's the blow-up items are called the Wibbets. That's when that was introduced Three years after the opening we the mayor actually Talked to Mike Miller owner of EOS and asked if he'd be interested in running that facility and he did so he's been there for four years, so it's nice to have someone that lives in town and he's invested and So going back even even before this year David and I really in about 2014-15 that Hey, you know what this park is gonna need a new master plan soon things are happening on the master plans Just like we finished Kiwanis two years ago master plan Yes, things start moving in okay, and and oh we'll do that here. We'll put that there You want a you want a road map you want a guide and that's what it is It's it's a guide that can be changed and moved around But at least you have a guide to get you through the future Guiding you along the way some think great things great things came out of this plan The one that never even thought about it was the new rental facility To to this to the east that would just be spectacular opening up the views You start to think okay, this this park was maybe underutilized and it you look at the potential now That little tiki hut that is that's that area is is a great potential for another public private Relationship partnership I've already been talking to one person from Dorr County who runs Zip lines. It's a perfect area and he could base himself his company out of there. It's a possibility It's something to look at If you look at this picture how how everything's kind of pulled away from the lake right now the parking lots kind of go right up to it Pull it away give it some green space really that's kind of like one of their thoughts was a Overlook beach On top, you know if you're not going to the beach down below and not paying to get in you still kind of have that Feel of the water and and whatnot by on top. So again some great ideas We looked at pedestrian flow the trails the river itself. There's a part of the river that's eroding so I Think I'm working with Grave and city staff. We've done a great job We got a lot of good feedback and I'm hoping we can pass this on tonight Thank you, Joe. I I think I'm I'm on the park screen. Yeah, so and I just Like I applaud you for all your work and all your efforts on this. This is an awesome plan and yeah You need to have something in place if you want to ask, but you know to come up with the money You got to have the ideas out there and this is a great idea There's a there. So there's it's I guess it's a Wishlist to go by and you know, we have to have that. So I recommend that we send this on the council Thank you Go ahead Thank you Just to so what currently at the end of Pershing? Connects to the park now. Is there a connection there or is it just like trees? So that is just a there there is a That's where a road stops And you can enter there from from from from like from a bike or from from walking It's not something you'd enter by a vehicle and at this point. It's not really something we'd see as a ever entering by a vehicle, but we'd keep it more to a pedestrian bike entry Thank you. My second question would be about the current number of Disc golf holes and the proposed future number. I didn't see that when I was glancing over this Is it less or more of the same? Yeah, no Maybe a maybe a couple less. It's interesting going through this process You kind of find out things you never knew before but at this time there's 20 holes on that disc golf course Now the reason for that I found out during this process is um They designed it for 20 because the city kind of said, you know Well, the the frontage area by Kelly met might be used for something else So they planned for 20 just in case they had to take two away So we have that I've talked to this golf people. We have that ability to Move things around so we'll always have 18 and that's that's the number we want Thank you very much for that. I just want to share that I'm very much in favor of doing something just like this to this piece of property It'll be a great benefit for our community. So I'm going to be voting for it there I was so happy to see the city take a move to put a master plan together for this park and I really think it turned out well When I moved to Sheboygan I joined the Sheboygan JC's and during that time I I saw this park improve. I was part of the group that remodeled the bath house back in the late 80s early 90s and It made it more functional But I agree that there's other things to consider and I think this plan is Going to come up with a new solution for that area Yeah, we've seen a we've a vital course around there the ski trails have been put through there at times some of those things have Like the water slide they had their life But we're looking for new things that will in really make this a gem in our community And I think this is a great plan to to make that happen. So I hope you'll support it tonight Thank you, sir Hey, Joe Or David, I guess just kind of a good question that I would have is you know What what feedback are we looking from the community and folks in this neighborhood? Just to kind of pick their brain and kind of get a good pulse about What folks in the area and their vision is in this community as well? I know some folks in this neighborhood They've brought in concerns just about traffic and speed and I know like what once you get right up the hill There's always traffic issues and I think I think those are some things that we should keep in mind as well, too You know, primarily the neighbors are right in this area What would they like to utilize more as well as other citizens across the city? I don't we don't have to kind of go in something too deep right now But I just kind of want to keep that on a radar As we're going forward Yeah, I think through this process. There were several neighbors that did ask questions I think one was the the Persian Persian entrance area The nice thing about this and what the neighbors is That the disc golf course Which basically, you know, it might change a little bit but not along the the front edge areas with the neighbors So that area really is not going to change at all And then again, we are not looking at veal vehicle traffic coming from that area Opening that up at all. I'll probably only pedestrian So that we didn't get any negatives. We got a few questions and I think we satisfied that the questions answered Awesome. Thank you. Do we have any other discussion? We have a motion To prove or second it Motion has been made in seconded. Is there any other discussions on this all those in favor? Hi Any opposed? Chair votes. I will send it along to the council. Thank you. Thank you Okay Resolution 123 2021 November 16 2020 document 4.6 Resolution authorizing the mayor to sign the reinstatement and second amendment to purchase and sale agreement Extending several dates in the previous agreement authorized pursuant to resolution resolution number 12 1920 for the purchase of land from the Union Pacific Railroad Company, David Yeah, I believe chair Pelo Shack will be discussing this in case on on the call tonight. Okay, Chad you online Yes, I am so thank you chair and This is that Union Pacific Railroad contract. We've talked about a number of times in relation to From Pennsylvania to Union so we've been negotiating for a number of months with the railroad to try to come to a Conclusion on what we actually need to purchase and there's some discrepancies over after we completed the survey The railroad had an idea that we were going to pay for all of the right-of-way and everything in that in that areas Around the streets that are already part of public streets and public right-of-way And that's where the 1.2 million came from our number is closer to 800,000 So we're optimistic that we're going to get to a point where we both can agree and we can close this deal But we're recommending extending the contract for now And allow the city attorney's office to continue to negotiate with the railroad to see if we can get them Down on the cost a little bit before we close so this would extend the closing out to March of 2021 And hopefully we can come to an agreement that both parties will align with and we can move forward Thank You Chad I am also hopefully that this I'm looking forward to this going through so I really want to see this I think this bike trail Pedestrian trail will be a great asset to this city, and I hope that we can we can get this negotiation to go through Motions made by Ryan seconded by Marcus any other discussion on it all those in favor Hi Any opposed chair votes aye motion passes Okay resolution 124 2021 Resolution authorizing the purchasing agent to issue a purchase order to industrial marketing and consulting for the purchase of a replacement Street sleeper for the public works department David Thank You mr. Chair again This this unit is scheduled for replacement. It's within included in the 2021 capital improvements program for funding for motor vehicle fund With the reason we're we're expediting it now getting the paperwork is because they're such a long lead time and the current unit is More in the shop more than on the road as we speak so fortunately, we're not doing much street sweeping now with the leaf collection program ending and Moving into the snow and ice operations coming up soon What we're proposing here is going with a Timcoe sweeper It's going to replace what we currently have we have a Schwartz today It's interesting to note that we did have Timcoe's about 20 some years ago Probably about 25 years ago when we first got into the regenerative air And since then they've made Additional improvements. It's a very good sweeper. We've had experience with them And so we're recommending that we continued with down this path with Timcoe as we when we did our evaluation We evaluated several vendors probably about five different types of sweepers and Timcoe Actually came to the top of the list with all the features that we need as well as with our operators view as well as Operability with with them in the field. So it is our recommendation to go with the Timcoe sweeper as is being proposed this evening Thank You David any other discussion on this Any more question? Yes? Mind it looks like you under budget on this one by a couple thousand bucks. I Believe you were correct We in the budget it was I believe 270 275 Roughly is what what we're looking to draw from I Take that but it looks like you've got a purchase price here 275 300 and the budgeted expenditure is Yes, that with the budgeted price was 260 But then what we'll do is we're what we do is when we we sell off at auction The existing sweeper will make that then that proceeds goes and makes up the gap That's why I'm sorry I I'm we're figuring between probably 20 to 30,000 in residual value on the market again It's it's it's market driven But sometimes I'm We used to trade trade vehicles in and quite frankly The dealers don't want used equipment. They they're they there's really they're not a they're not into use they're they're more into selling brand new and We've had much much higher Value gains in the the auction market. Thank you. I'd make a motion to approve Okay Motions made by Marcus seconded by belief rose Or bet was it Betty Betty seconded by Betty. Okay. Okay. Thanks, Betty Any other discussion on it all those in favor?
