B. Pine Grove Park Master Plan – Public Hearing

Summary: K. Burrows presented the Pine Grove Park Master Plan. The originalMaster Plan was approved in 2007. He discussed the original public meetingand comments. He spoke of the original approved amenities: dog park,restroom, shelters, playground, half basketball court, walking path, and openspace. A new park layout was shown that proposed a revised Master Plan. TheMaster Plan was revisited because funding was allocated in fiscal year 2017 togreen up the site. The parking lot, landscaping, and dog park would be finished in current fiscal year. With favorable bidding and room in the budget, a publicrestroom could be added in the current year. The public was engaged in theplanning of the park and supported the proposed park layout. The publicwanted a full size basketball court and a sand volleyball court was added.

Boise City Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting Minutes Page 3 of 6 February 16, 2017

Other requests included more basketball courts and two tennis courts; but the site was too small to add a full size basketball court and tennis courts. Fiscal year 2022 was slated to have the shelter and the playground added. When it was time to add the playground; the public would have an opportunity to give their input on what the playground should include and a public meeting process would be followed. S. McIlroy asked why there was a five year wait to have the additional amenities added. D. Holloway explained that the timing of funding was detailed in the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) which was a financially sustainable plan which utilized general funds and impact fees collected and allocated funds for various projects. All projects were prioritized and placed according to when funding would be available. When the public hearing was opened for comment by the public, no one had signed up, attended or requested that comments be included in this hearing. MOTION: Commission moved to recommend the approval of the

Pine Grove Park Master Plan to Boise City Council.

C. Rhodes Skate Park Update

Summary: T. Norton gave an update. He showed the parkour park on 15th and 16th Street. The design was for 15th Street which was where the parkour course would be. The design came from Parkour Visions; a national parkour design company. The walls were very carefully designed with many unique elements specialized for parkour athletes. D. Holloway explained what a parkour course was. Parkour was an urban obstacle course that people used to jump, flip, or creatively navigate through with gymnastic-like athletic moves. This would be one of first complete, full-scale, parkour parks in the United States. The addition of the parkour park to the skate park was a great amenity especially because it would be a skate friendly environment.

Boise City Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting Minutes Page 4 of 6 February 16, 2017

T. Norton explained that this was a safer and more controlled environmentwhere people could hone their parkour skills. 15th Street was a good locationfor people to practice their skills before they would be out in the urban setting.

E. Stidham arrived at 4:20 pm.

T. Norton explained what was happening with 16th Street landscape. Througha design competition, Trademark Sign Company won the ability to do the artalong 16th Street. Wire lettering would be placed in the landscape in an artisticway with the letters spelling out “Rhodes” placed at different angles andelevations. The letters would appear as if they were growing up out of thelandscape and would be lit by LED lights. The artwork on the same part of thebridge was done by Sector Seventeen. The artwork on the wall included theearlier artwork of Ward Hooper and school children as a hidden element.There would also be interpretive signs that gave a history of the park, GlennRhodes, and information about the artwork and murals. The skate parkperimeter would be fenced between the skate park and the alleyway.

With enough room in the budget, artwork would be extended to the raised planters. On 15th Street, as someone would come into the park, there would be an iconic sign at the entrance to the park. The landscaping improvements in the skate park included a detached sidewalk with boulders and plantings that would be hardy enough to live under the overpass with limited light and the extreme temperatures of that microclimate. Due to the historic district the park was located in, they would also be installing historic lights. The planters with fences and boulders were already completed. The landscape would be done when weather permitted.

He showed pictures of what the skate park looked like at night. There were white safe lights and LED lights that could change colors and can be coordinated with different holidays or themes.

The goal was to have the park complete by the end of March and then the lettering would be done soon after. There would be a ribbon cutting for the parkour park and attendees were expected to come from across the country.

S. Smith asked if there would issues with camping. T. Norton explained thatthe area was designed to be a very open and active place and would not becomfortable for people to sit. Until the park was opened, there was no way toknow for sure. The designs were reviewed with Boise Police so that the areacould be easily monitored.

Boise City Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting Minutes Page 5 of 6 February 16, 2017

A. Johnson asked what historic lighting was. T. Norton explained that in thedowntown core there were green light posts with acorn shaped globes at thetop of the streetlight.

D. Julia Davis Park Update

Summary: T. Norton presented the Julia Davis update. Beginning at Broadwaybridge, the design included stairs that came down from Broadway to theGreenbelt that helped separate pedestrian and bicycle traffic in that area.From the old bridge, a date stamp was acquired that would be included in afuture interpretive sign celebrating the first Broadway bridge and the historyof the bridge. He explained that there could be four river nodes along theGreenbelt.

T. Norton showed green space that was added at Myrtle and 3rd Street. Therewere plans to consider an entrance to the park at 3rd Street. One of the largerprojects to be completed was the Grand Plaza. The Grand Plaza had ahardscape center with art and bollards that represented the apple orchardthat was once there. The bollards would be lit from within. The lit bollardswould add a soft glow of light to the park. Historic lighting would be added tothe plaza which would add needed lighting and improve the safety of the park.There would also be additional sidewalks built from the parking lot to theplaza and from the plaza to the Agriculture Pavilion and new restroom facility.There were plans to continue to enhance the connectivity throughout the park.

A restroom would be added on the east end of Julia Davis Park. The parking lot and Cancer Survivor Plaza did not have a restroom at the time. The east end of the park was in need of some amenities to better serve the park users. The added restroom would be similar to the one by the Agriculture Pavilion on the west side of the park.

He also noted a 5th Street pedestrian entrance into Julia Davis Park, which would be similar to the Greenbelt. The pedestrian pathway was currently under construction and would be completed by the end of April 2017.

D. Holloway mentioned that the current Commission would becommemorated in stone at the Grand Plaza.

IV. IN THE MATTER OF ADJOURNMENT:

There being no further business to come before the Commission at the time, the meeting was adjourned at 4:45 p.m.

December 15, 2016 To: Greenbelt Committee Fr: John Biggs, Boise Metro Rotary Re: ROTARY PARK ON THE GREENBELT Attachments: Brick Pricing Model, diagram of the project, cost estimate The “final” design plan has been completed by the City Parks and Rec Department (Toby Norton and Kelly Burrows) and they have prepared an estimate for about $50,000. The total cost estimate will be increased by the cost of the bricks we plan to sell, as well as some costs for marketing materials. It looks like this: (See the “Brick Pricing Model” attached) ** We have been invited to submit applications for two grants of $10,000 each: Greater Boise Rotary Foundation and Boise Southwest Rotary Club. Applications to be submitted in January; expect to hear in March. Assuming the grants are approved, which is not certain, we’d need to sell 500 bricks. If the grants are not approved, we’d have to re-think our sales model. For example, we could sell more bricks, increase the price, aggressively go after “naming opportunities” (benches, etc). We met with Toby and Kelly today to map out a timeline: January 2017 Apply for grants City to work on “Donation Agreement”, Commission/council approvals Rotarians volunteer for brochure creation and finance/brick order mechanics March 2017 Hear about grants Complete brick sales brochure Set up on-line brick order system and bank account (Fundraisers Ltd.) April 2017 Club members start selling bricks Make presentations to all valley Rotary clubs Sell naming opportunities Get some press Club members participate in “lemonade stand” sales Find Rotarian to build the Little Free Library May 2017 Complete interim progress reports for two District 5400 grants June 2017 Notify City Parks and Rec that we’re near our fundraising goal City complete engineering work and bid package

Estimated Project Cost: City estimate $50,000

Cost of 500 bricks $14,000 Marketing Materials $ 1,000 Total $65,000

Sources of Funds: 2 District Grants $ 9,950 Other Grants** $20,000 Brick Sales $31,000 Naming Opportunities $ 5,000 Total $65,950

DRAFT

August 2017 City gets all approvals and permits October 2017 Construction – Grand opening/ribbon cutting! We’ll need Rotarians to step up and volunteer for some sub-committees:

• Work with Fundraisers, Ltd to set up online order system, credit card processing • Design marketing brochure • Sell T-shirts?? • Build the Little Free Library • Coordinate “naming opportunity” sales • Organize “lemonade stand” sales April/May (We’ll be granted permission to set up a

refreshment stand at the site. We can explain the project and pass out brochures) I have shared the timeline estimate with Brandi Burns of the City Art and History Department. She’ll be doing the interpretive signs and coordinating the rehab work on the monument.
