I. NEED I"OR I'ROPOSAL
The proposed pro.yect u'ill be located in 15 acre Walker Park. T[e park currerrtlv ser'es a clual
purpose. as a communitv park providine baseball and soccer fields tbr all rnernbers otthe Crtr,.
and as a neighborhood park providing tlte surrounding neighborhoods with plavground and picnic
areas. Tltis park is located in the south part of the Cit1,. *1',i.I is rypicalll,older neicIborhoods
with a lower income. The area is experiencrng a re.juvenation of sorts as low to rnoderate
income farnilies move in to the area and upgrade the exrsting housing. Taking inro accou't the
needs of tlre existing residents. as well as the inf'lux ot new tarnilies. it becomes clear that the
tirne has come to upgrade the park facilities The playground equipmenr is old and unsat'e and
must be replaced. as it is used exrensivelv by all local residenrs.
The proposed pro.iect conststs of demolition. removal and replacernerrt of existing aging
playground equipment (swings. slides. altd tot playground) wirh one modular slide structure. tbur
spring toys. two tot swings and two anv age swings that rvill rneet the Consumer Product Sat'et1,
Commission Guidelines (CPSCG) and ADA standards tbr handicap accessibilitr,. all construcred
on a sat'etv surface. Additionally. the project will provide a van accessible parking space with
connecting accessible sidewalks. five benches surrounding the plav area. a ribbon-rype bike rack.
and one accessible drinking fbuntain. This rvill be located in the southeastern portion of Walker
Park. nortlr of the existing tennis courts and resrrooms. Walker Park itself is located on the
corner of l5th Street and South Colleee Avenue.
The proposed pro.iect area is predorninantlv a rvooded area u'irlr a pavilion and scattered picnic
tables and erills located nearbr'. The topographv of land rvhere the proposed pro.iect will be
placed is flat. so there u'ill be no significant alteration ot topographr,. The van accessible
parking space. rvith the connectittg sideu'alk to the plav area. u'ill be located in the existrng
parking lot on the east side of tlre park. ad.iacent ro rhe plavipicnic area.
The goal of this proiect is to conrribute to the overall upgrade in plaveround equiprnent in all
the City's parks that are deficient. Tlre irnmediate ob.jective is to replace existing unsal'e
equipment witlr CPSCG and ADA certified equipment and sat'erv surface wirh several other
amenities to serve the local neighborhoods in tlre south part of rhe City. The combination of the
above neu'facilities plus the existittg baseball and soccer fields u,ill provide a cornplete
recreational tacility to serve both the communitv at large as uell as the local residents.
Construction of the proposed proiect is anticipated to begin in the spring of 1998.
2. ALTE,RNATIVES
a) No Action - [f no action is taken. the Citv will conrinue ro have a park rhat doesn't have sat'e
and accessible tacilities to serve the local residents. This not onlv is unsat-e tbr the children of
the comrnunitv. it does nothittg to further tlie goal ot replacernenr olall ulrsat.e arrd inaccessible
playground ecluipment throughout the Citv's parks.

c) Partial Fundirrg ot the Grant Requesr - Parrial funcling u,ould result in cancellation of someof the recreational facilities tiom tlre proposed pro.iect, thus making fulfillment of the goal ofthe project possible. The citt' is oftbrirrg a comrnirm.n, oi sso.00d,;;rd meeting the needsof the citizenrv. and partial funding woulcl result in a lower qualitv. less-cornplete tacility.
d) Selection of Another Locatiotr - while it is true rhat other cirir parks could use new tacilities.locating the proposed project in Walker Park will bring t5e tacltitv up to CpSCG and ADAstandards and serve both the communitY and the poorer south side oi'rhe Citv which has had nonew equipment in manY vears. Locating tlte proposed project sorne rvhere else would det'eat thepurpose of the proiect.

Check the appropriate answer. lf the Federal lnsurance Administration has issued a flood hazard
boundary map or a flood insurance rate map that covers the project area, flood insurance will be
required for insurable facilities located within the area. (The Outdoor Flecreation Grants program
oflice has copies of most of these maps). Certain types of recreation facilities may be constructed
in flood hazard areas without the need for insurance. A list of these facilities may be obtained from
the Department of Parks and Tourism's Outdoor Recreation Grants Program office.

meecings at ',-arious parks thrcugh cuE the communit-,'.
In the VISION prccess two specific issues presented Ehemselves ashigh on the prioricy list . one was t.he public' s desire t.oescablish a sysEem of biclzcle and pedest.rian craiiwavs within parks
and also Linking parks and schools. Furthermore, che cicizenry wasvery concerned about the safeEl, of individuals using the trailways.
The other high prioritf issue was tire preservaE.ion anC enhancementof the natural beauty of Ehe communit.l,, expansion of parks and openspace, and preservation of historic strucLures and sites.(See Appendix i, Summari' of Vision priorities).
In the parJ< public hear:-ngs, s€'rr€rd1 priorit.ies presenEed
themselves, each being unique to .,he particular park where the
meeE.ing was being hel-d. The gisc of these meeEings appeared to be
t.hat. the public wanEed improvements in recreational facilities suchas expanded softbaIl, basebali, soccer, and volIeyba1l facilities;larger picnic pavilions; impro.,red cr new restrooms ; and improvedplai'ground apparatus, to mention a few.
