Fall 2023 Consultants Evaluating Park

The City has begun refining the Fred Richards Park Master Plan with Confluence and Consultants. In order to further refine these designs more information about the site must be gathered. You may observe numerous consultants gathering info throughout the park. A site survey was completed in mid September. Other survey work includes an archeological survey, and additional soil samples. Consultants will also be re-evaluating wetlands and existing vegetation.

Once we gather all this information designers will use it to help create final design layout and create documents for construction. Please have patience with the project team as we move forward. Many components of design including but not limited to the Wetland Bank, Trail head and Facility, and other landscape features will take time and authorizations as we develop them. Our current timeline includes a year of design before implementation can take place.
