Downtown Riverfront Project The Committee discussed the Downtown Riverfront Project with Seth Hudson. The Committee agreed that the stop sign at Orange Street and Front/Second Street was not required as the two turn-ons from Front/Second Street onto Orange Street would have stops signs.

Committee members discussed and liked the idea. A draft of the survey will be brought before the Committee for consideration in the future. 5. Pickleball Court Discussion City Administrator Wolf presented on the request from the Prescott Pickleball group to add dedicated courts to Public Square Park. Committee members discussed with the group.

Adjourn Knox/Ruona motioned to adjourn passed, without a negative voice vote at 6:11 pm Respectfully Submitted, Matt Wolf City Administrator To: Parks and Public Property Committee From: Matt Wolf, City Administrator Date: June 23, 2022 Subject: Park Signs Approval Memo Background At the April 18, 2022 meeting the Parks and Public Property Committee approved signs for the downtown Riverfront Project. With the Riverfront Phase 1 bids being lower than originally planned a savings of $79,083 from the original estimate is expected. It was proposed that if the committee would like to move forward with the signs that the savings used from the riverfront project be used to pay for the signs out of TID #4. The committee approved that by a vote of 2-to-0. The committee since that time has requested that a sign be put together for the Non-Motorized Boat Launch. Discussion Graphic House Inc. has submitted final proofs for the downtown sign and additionally put together a proposal for the Non-Motorized Boat Launch sign. Staff has also requested that a sign be put together for the Prescott Beach but that was not yet ready at the time of this memo. With the three signs downtown and the Non-Motorized Boat Launch, Graphic House Inc. has given the City a proposal for the work and installation at $35,562. However, if the City wanted to move forward with the Prescott Beach sign it is estimated that would cost an additional $1,511. It is proposed that the downtown signs be paid for out of the TID #4 funds ($34,051) and that the Non-Motorized Boat Launch Sign and Prescott Beach Sign ($3,022) be paid for out of the Parks Escrow Fund for 2022. If approved staff would not request the downtown signs be installed until October once the Riverfront Project is complete. The signs along Lake Street staff would request be installed as soon as possible. Staff will bring an image to show the Committee of the one-side of the proposed kiosk sign for consideration as well. Recommendation Discuss the proposed signs and consider passing on to City Council for approval. Attachments 1. Graphic House Inc. – Proposal 2. Downtown Sign Location Map 3.

Staff would like to discuss with the Committee the option of the removing the skate park and considering developing a future plan for the park at a later date. Figure 1 Location of Prescott Skate Park next to Wellhouse #4 Pictures of Vandalism of Skate Park Pictures of Deterioration of Skate Park To: Parks and Public Property Committee From: Matt Wolf, City Administrator Date: June 23, 2022 Subject: Boat Launch and Fishing Pier Discussion Background The City of Prescott has allocated $125,000 for the development of a Boat Launch and Fishing Pier in the 2022 Budget through TIF #4 funds. Cedar Corporation worked with River City Welding to design a preliminary plan set to submit to the DNR and Army Corps of Engineers for approval. Discussion The DNR has requested that a mussel survey and relocation be completed prior to construction. This work would be included in the bidding process and would be completed by the selected contractor. Additionally, the DNR has informed us about the following regarding the size of the boat launch in an email on May 19, 2022: a. The boat ramp pier is considered “oversized” since there are sections of this pier that are greater than 6ft wide and proposed at a length that creates an area larger than 200 sq ft. The plans indicate the floating dock will be 8ft wide by 40ft long which = 320 sq ft. If this design is downsized to either of the below options, this pier will also qualify for the pier exemption. If you wish to keep the boat ramp pier dimensions as proposed, the only permit track available for an oversized pier is a Ch 30 Individual Permit (IP) for a pier. This is roughly a 3-4 month review process and includes a required Class 1 public notice for a 30-day notice period before a permit decision is finalized. i. Options for meeting pier exemption: Downsize to 6ft wide for 40ft long (which makes this a pier rather than a wider “loading platform”, or ii. Keep 8ft wide and downsize to a length no longer than 25ft long (which means this is a “loading platform” and meets the 200 sq ft max) However, in a letter issued by the Army Corps of Engineers on Tuesday, July 22 they issued a letter stating the following: “Your project exceeds the limitation established in the general permit related to the maximum size of the dock sections. However, based on a case-specific review, we  have determined the proposed activity will result in no more than minimal adverse effects and a waiver has been granted.” Cedar Corporation is reaching out to the DNR to see if this exemption would also cover their requirements or if they would still need a 3–4-month review process. Recommendation Staff would like some clarification on the following options: 1. If the DNR still requires a 3–4-month review process, would they like to wait to get the 320 square foot dock or resize the dock to move forward this year? 2. If they would like to wait on the dock until next year, would they like to move forward with construction of the fishing pier this year. This would result in two separate bidding processes.

Please note that your permitted activity is subject to a compliance inspection by a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers representative. If you fail to comply with this permit, you are subject to permit suspension, modification, or revocation. By signing below, the permittee is certifying that the work authorized by the above referenced permit has been completed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the permit, and any required mitigation was completed in accordance with the permit conditions. _________________________________ _____________________________ Signature of Permittee Date  MVP-2015-03349-DDD Enclosure Page 1 of 12 Existing Conditions: The City of Prescott has an existing public boat launch floating dock that is in very poor condition. The boat launch floating dock is made of plastic floats that are held against strong current, and take the impact of some large boats that use the launch. The existing boat launch dock does not float high enough above water anymore and is in need of replacement. The City previously had a public fishing dock that did not float, and would be under water often at high water conditions. The City removed the old public fishing dock a couple of years ago due to this issue. The current public concrete boat ramp panels are made up of 20 foot by 8.33 foot concrete panels which are 10 inches thick. The concrete boat ramp panels were repaired about 4 years ago (with required permits) and are in good condition. There will be no changes to the existing concrete boat ramp panels. Proposed Improvements: The City of Prescott proposes to install a new public boat ramp dock at the current location, as well as new public fishing dock. The public boat ramp dock will include a new floating dock system fabricated of galvanized steel trussing with walkway made with Ipe decking panels and railings. The dock system will be held in place with steel pilings, and allowed to float with water elevation changes. The walkway is proposed to be 4 foot wide and lead down to an 8 foot by 40 foot floating dock made with treated decking and foam filled poly floats. The boat ramp dock will allow for two boats to launch or load at the same time. The proposed fishing dock is made up of a 4-foot wide by 40 foot long walkway fabricated of galvanized steel trussing with walkway made with Ipe decking panels and railings. The walkway system will be allowed to pivot with water elevation changes. The walkway will lead down to the fishing dock which is 6 feet wide and 100 feet long. The fishing dock will be fabricated of galvanized steel trussing and floats with Ipe decking panels and will be held in place by 3- 10-inch steel pilings, which will allow the deck to raise with changing water elevations in the river. The fishing dock is proposed to have 6- 8 foot long benches. Both the boat ramp and fishing dock are proposed to be installed in the same location as the existing structures. The lower sections of the fishing pier and boat ramp walkway will be able to float, to adapt to the changing river elevations. See the proposed boat launch and fishing dock layout. The proposed improvement construction will cover approximately 0.10 acres of area, approximately 0.08 of which will be over top of the Mississippi River.  MVP-2015-03349-DDD Enclosure Page 2 of 12 Note: Site information and legal description fields (below) are automatically populated when mapping options are used.
