BACKGROUND At its February 18, 2003 meeting, the City Council authorized staff to hire Loucks Associates to prepare a Park Master Plan and construction documents for Pheasant Run Park. A Neighborhood Park Planning Committee has been working with Loucks and Associates to develop the master plan. The attached plan is the result of several meetings with the Committee and staff Pheasant Run Park is located at Cardinal Drive and Teal Street. It is .88 acres in size or the size of fOur City Lots. The current topography of the park is more conducive for houses with walkout basements than a park.

The City has budgeted $70,000 for the project. Staff recommends that Council increase the budgeted amount for improvements to Pheasant Run Park from $70,000 to $85,000 to insure completion of the project. Staff will be obtaining price quotes for all concrete and landscaping work as well, Funding for this project is from the Park Reserve Fund.
