The program has six general objectives (see attached grant application guide) that focus on tree management, green space restoration, low impact development, skill enhancement, education and productive urban landscapes. Eligible recipients of the grant include state and local governments, non-profit organizations and educational institutions. Grant funding comes from the United States Department of Agriculture through the US Farm Bill to provide financial assistance through state foresters to eligible entities. The federal share of any project cannot exceed 50% of the total project. Non-federal match may be cash, services or in-kind contributions. The maximum allowance is $7,500, unless waived by the Grant Review Committee for exceptional projects. Eligible projects include those addressing Low Impact Development (LID) installed on public property. The City of Fayetteville currently owns a parking lot located at the northeast corner of Mountain and Church streets where trees have been planted, but are in very poor condition due to the lack of water and rooting space. The project for the grant application includes removing approximately an 8' wide by 220' long asphalt between parking bays between Mountain and Church, and two smaller areas to the east just north and south of the existing awning (see attached map). The new island area would be a depressed island to accommodate storm water runoff from the parking lot and adjacent rooftops to the east. New trees would be planted in the islands and a flush concrete curb would be installed around the edges. Topsoil and river rock would be placed in the island for growing medium and mulch as well as irrigation. Additionally, new parking meters would be placed on either side of the island. THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS The City of Fayetteville has been awarded the $7,500 grant. If approved, construction is anticipated to begin in December and be complete in February. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approving a resolution to accept an Arkansas Forestry Commission Urban and Community Forestry Program reimbursable 50/50 matching grant in the amount of $7,500 and approving a budget adjustment to recognize the revenue for the construction of parking lot improvements north of the Development Services building. BUDGET IMPACT: Total project cost is estimated at $20,605. $7,500 will be reimbursed to the City after the project is complete. The grant will be matched with $13,105 in materials as well as in-kind labor and equipment provided by the Transportation and Parks departments. $10,382 is available in the Parking Lot Improvements project to refurbish the parking meters, and $2,722 is available in the Transportation construction materials account. All work will be completed in house. Attachments: Letter of Award from the Arkansas Forestry Commission Grant Agreement Grant Application Site Map Budget Adjustment RESOLUTION NO.

(Signature of Authorized Co tact Person) (Date) 3 PROJECT NARRATIVE The City of Fayetteville is requesting funding for the construction of low impact development improvements in an existing city owned parking lot. Funds will be used to create three bioswales in an existing asphalt park- ing lot to reduce the urban heat island effect and to capture and filter storm water coming from the parking lot and adjacent rooftops. The City of Fayetteville currently owns a parking lot located at the north- east corner of Mountain and Church streets where trees have been planted, but are in very poor condition due to the lack of water and root- ing space. This project includes removing approximately an 8 ' wide by 220 ' long (1,700 s.f.) asphalt area between parking bays and two smaller areas, approximately 8 ' wide by 100 ' long (217 s.f. )8 ' wide by 27 ' long (815 s.f.) . The existing trees, parking meters, as- phalt and 3 ' of underlying material would be removed in the islands. A 4 ' perforated pipe would be installed in the bottom of the swale to re- ceive water and covey it to the street during heavy rains to keep the swales from overflowing. The new island areas would be filled with a top- soil mix to promote proper tree root growth and contoured to be de- pressed to accommodate stormwater runoff from the east. New trees would be planted in the islands and a layer of 3-4 " river rock would be installed on top of the topsoil. A concrete flush curb would be installed around the edges of the island to allow water to sheet flow across the parking area into the island. Wheel stops would be used to prevent cars from driving into the island. Parking meters would be placed on either side of the island to users to access. Signage will be included explaining the importance of low impact development. The City of Fayetteville currently manages its urban forest with City Staff and with private contractors. City staff waters, prunes and mulches trees on a routine schedule, and the City also currently has a three— year (Continued on page 5) 4 PROJECT NARRATIVE maintenance contract to water, mulch and prune trees planted within the rights-of-way. This project would serve as an example of how other de- velopments can incorporate low impact development into their designs. This parking lot is located in a highly visible location, where many citi- zens, engineers and developers park to attend meetings, pay water bills and take car of other city related business, exposing them to low impact development techniques. Maintenance including watering and pruning will be performed on a regu- lar basis by City Staff. River rock is being used as mulch to minimize maintenance and to ensure the material stays in place in times of rain. Irrigation will be installed to establish and ensure the long term survival of the trees This project meets the Arkansas Forestry Commission 's objectives by creating an exemplary low impact development project in the heart of downtown to help educate others of the importance of responsible de- sign, planning and development. This project would add valuable green space and water infiltration areas to an otherwise completely impervious parking area. By removing asphalt and replacing it with pervious rooting space for trees, this project would help improve water and air quality, re- duce the urban heat island effect, provide wildlife habitat and sequester carbon. The Transportation Department, Parks Department and Parking Division will partner on this project to make it a success. The Transportation De- partment will be responsible for the demolition including tree, meter and asphalt removal as well as constructing the curb and placing the topsoil and river rock, irrigation pipe and drain. The Parks Department will be responsible for securing, planting and maintaining the trees for the first three years of establishment and installing the irrigation emitters. After 5 PROJECT NARRATIVE establishment, maintenance of the trees will be turned over to the Trans- portation Department. The City of Fayetteville received its continued designation of Tree City USA for the seventeenth year in 2011. This project would help the City achieve its goal of obtaining the designation for 2012 as well. The project will be an educational tool for all citizens, developers and engineers who utilize the lot. This parking area services two of the most busy City facilities, City Hall and the Development Services Department. Retrofitting the parking area with Low Impact Development features would help reinforce the importance of integrated storm water manage- ment and the City ' s commitment to being a leader in responsible devel- opment. If awarded, the project would begin in December and be incom- plete in February 2013. 6 DETAILED PROJECT BUDGET PROPOSAL BUDGET 7 Federal Non -Federal Match Total Categories Grant Cash In-kind Personnel (include fringe benefits) Crew Leader $1,800 $1,800.00 Maintenance Worker 4 $4,320 le -$4,320.00 Maintenance Worker 3 $3,840 $3,840.00 , Temporary $600 $600.00 In house tree planting $2,100 $2,100 Travel Equipment Crew Truck $852.48 $852.48 Dump Truck $2,688 $2,688.00 Gradall $1,656.48 l $1,656.48 Backhoe $591.84 $591.84 Supplies Topsoil $2,640 0 $2,640.00 River Rock $1,550 $1,559.00 Trees $2,800 $2,800.00 Concrete $2,362.50 $2,362.50 4 " Perforated Pipe r $320.00 $320.00 1-1/4 " Schedule 40 Pipe $160.00 $160.00 Parking Meters r $10,382.68 $10,382.68 Backflow Preventer $190.00 $200.00 Contractual Other — TOTALS $7,500.00 $31,553.98 $39,053.98 7 TREE PLANTING INFORMATION (1) SPECIES Gleditsia tricanthos `Shademaster' SIZE 2' caliper B &B NUMBER 14 COST per TREE $200.00 TOTAL COST $2,800.00 SIZE = CALIPER, HEIGHT, CONTAINER SIZE, ETC.
