Teamed with Future IQ, a forward thinking planning group, Landworks Studio facilitated dialogue and data collection focused on key components supported in the Comprehensive Plan: connectivity, trails and the concept of distributed recreational assets. Dialogue with the community through online surveys, discussion boards, and StoryMaps kept the community engaged and excited through the process.
Five key park properties have been conceptually imagined to meet the needs of the community and the desire to become an economically charged recreational asset in the region. The park concepts were coupled with detailed cost estimates, implementation and funding strategies, staffing recommendations and a robust vision that will lead the City far into the future.
