 PROJECT UPDATE

UPDATED April 27, 2012

 

During July of 2011 the Parks and Recreation Department met with City council to provide an overview of the Preferred Alternative and to answer “how we got there”.  During this meeting Council directed staff to put the Luscher Area Master Plan process on hold and move the Parks Plan 2025 Process forward.  The thought behind this action was that the Parks Plan 2025, once completed, will provide a system wide picture of where future amenities and activities will need to occur.  This would then further direct what would be proposed at the properties that make up the Luscher Area Master Plan. 

At this point the Luscher Area process is still on hold pending the Parks Plan 2025 draft plan.  See the Parks Plan 2025 page for information on that planning process

REFINED LUSCHER AREA SITE PLAN

 

The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board met on Wednesday June 15, 2011 to review the refined Luscher Area Site Plan.  The meeting included a presentation on the background of the properties associated with the plan, the site plan and on the site design.  Public comment was taken after the presentation (Nearly 100 people attended the event ant 39 individuals made public comment). The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board took public comment and findings from system plan needs analysis into consideration and directed the design team to make site plan modifications. Due to these modifications the initial comment period was postponed until (June 27, 2011 to July 10, 2011).  Please see the latest Refined Site Plan below.

COMMENT PERIOD

Occurred January 22, 2011

 

On Saturday January 22, 2011 the City held a design charette to kick off the Luscher Area Master Planning process.  Community members gathered to discuss and brainstorm ideas for how they would like to see park properties in the Luscher Farm area used in the future.  Eight different concepts were created during the charette. To view group concepts click the corresponding button below.  A two week online comment period followed the event. The collection of online comments and concepts from the charette were utilized to develop the three site plan alternatives presented at the April 21, 2011 Open House.
