Parks, and Public Works Committee Meeting Minutes
February 20th, 2023
Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, a meeting of the Parks, and Public Property
Committee was held, February 20th, 2023, Municipal Building, 800 Borner Street,
Prescott, Wisconsin 54021. The meeting was called to order at 5:00 pm
Committee Present: Bailey Ruona, John Peterson, Pat Knox
Committee Absent: None.
Staff Present: City Administrator Matt Wolf, Planner Carter Hayes, Public Works Director Mike
Kinneman
Others Present: Wisconsin Department of Transportation, Greg and Cole Adams of Cedar
Corporation, Members of the public.
1. Approve Minutes for January 17th, 2023.
John Peterson motioned to approve the minutes for January 17th, 2023. Knox
seconded; motion passed without a negative voice (3-0).
2. Public Works Items
A) USH 10 & STH 35 Project Discussion
The Wisconsin Department of Transportation will be present at the Committee meeting
to discuss the upcoming STH 35 and USH 10 project scheduled for 2027-2028, which
they will be providing handouts. Additionally, Cedar Corporation at the direction of City
Council has drafted a proposal for STH 35 to add a multi-use trail concept plan from
downtown. This concept plan will be shared during the meeting for the Committee to
review and discuss.
Steve Bruce, Bob Held, and Dave Wincensen of the WisDOT Eau Claire office were
present to head the discussion for the DOT. Cole Adams of Cedar Corporation
presented information regarding the trail design that was designed. The new design
extends from Kinnikinnic Street to Wacota Street. The DOT states that the roadway may
not be narrower than the standard 36’ curb face to curb face. The design created by
Cedar Corporation has a roadway width of 28’. The DOT will confer with their design
and traffic department to verify if any narrowing of the roadway can occur and if a 10’
path can fit within the ROW.
1
WDOT has a schedule of Hwy 35 and HWY 10 slated for 2028 construction. Steve
Bruce shared that the existing roadway pavements and condition of ancillary
components were assessed and found to require significant pavement resurfacing and
repairing/replacing stormwater inlets. It is also planned to replace the modular block
retaining wall along HWY 35. Any added repair to parking spaces and aesthetic coloring
to sidewalks in the downtown would be a city cost within the project. Resurfacing of the
DOT park and ride will be conducted in 2028 as well. The intersection of Cherry Street
and HWY 10 is looked to be reconstructed with new islands and turn signals as a part of
the project. The parking along HWY 10 could subject to removal.
The DOT proposed path along HWY 35 includes a 6’ wide sidewalk against the back of
curb rather than a 10’ wide multi-use trail recessed from the roadway. The cost for this
proposal would be approximately $400,000 with the city responsible for $88,000 per the
80/20 cost share. The DOT alternate proposed plan would require movement of the
retaining wall, costing a significant portion of the project and totaling nearly $1.6 million.
The city also has proposed a sidewalk and pedestrian access at HWY 29 and HWY 35.
The sidewalk would have a city cost of approximately $30,000. The crosswalk across
HWY 10 would require modifications to the traffic signals to accommodate pedestrian
movement. The DOT was willing to construct the sidewalk at an 80/20 cost share.
Committee member Peterson raised the question that the cost sharing percentages
may change, in which the DOT explained it would be in the city’s best interest to take
advantage of the 80/20 cost sharing.
The DOT shares that the intent of this project is to repair and reconstruct everything that
needs to be, and not to leave the city with a financial liability. Typically, projects must be
near full design within 1-2 years to the construction start date. Committee Member
Ruona shared that the City could create an agreement limiting liability for changes to
cost or scope.
The Committee favored the proposed sidewalk near HWY 29 and HWY 10 intersection,
along with removing parking North of HWY 10 near the HWY10 and Cherry Street
intersection.
Committee Member Ruona motioned to move the matter to Council. Knox
seconded; motion passed without a negative voice (3-0).
3. Parks Items
A) Knowles Nelson Stewardship Grant Proposal
The City is pursuing Knowles-Nelson Stewardship funds as a part of the Magee Park
Renovation Project. The project has a current probable cost of $1,209,280 (see
attached project estimate). The City is eligible to apply for the Land and Water
Conservation Fund (LWCF) and Recreational Trails Program (RTP) for the project.
Deadline to apply for stewardship funds is May 1st, 2023. The application will be
submitted to both programs and ultimately the DNR will decide if the project meets the
2
criteria and what program the project would receive funding. The RTP is capped at a
maximum grant of $100,000 whereas the LWCF is capped at 50% of total project costs
and no federal funds can be used to match the 50%. Cedar Corporation has drafted a
proposal to assist the City on submitting a 2023 WDNR Knowles-Nelson Stewardship
Grant for the Magee Park Renovation Project.
Planner Carter Hayes presented information regarding the proposal for Knowles Nelson
grant.
Committee Member Knox motioned to approve the proposal to council; Peterson
seconded. Motion passed without a negative voice vote. (3-0).
B) Farmers Market Special Event Request
The City has been approached by a group looking to start a Farmers Market within the
City of Prescott. The current proposal would be to hold the event every other Friday
starting on May 19th and go through late October from 4 pm – 8 pm. The group is
looking to see if there would be a willingness of the City to use a community park for the
event. As part of the event, they would like to make use of picnic tables and a shelter,
as a result the options listed below meet that criteria to consider; if there is a willingness
to allow the event in a City park.
1. Public Square Park
2. Freedom Park
3. St. Croix Bluffs Park
4. Mercord Mill Park
City Administrator Matt Wolf presented information regarding the proposed farmer’s
market. Committee member Ruona favored Freedom Park, but Committee Member
Peterson stated that due to the typical utilization, it would conflict with regular
community use. St. Croix Bluffs Park was decided to be best fit to accommodate a
farmers’ market.
4. Other Business
5. Adjourn
Peterson motioned to adjourn. Ruona seconded; motion passed without a
negative voice (3-0) at 6:53 pm
The next Parks Committee meeting will be March 20th, 2023.

seconded; motion passed without a negative voice (2-0).
2. Public Works Items
A) USH 10 & STH 35 Project Discussion
WDOT was originally scheduled to be present at the meeting. Cedar Corporation
drafted a layout of the proposed trail corridor adjacent to HWY 35. Greg Adams of
Cedar Corporation presented information regarding the trail corridor along HWY 35.
Cedar Corporation proposes narrowing travel lanes and moving the Eastern curb inward
toward the road to increase space available for the trail along the road. Narrowing of the
travel lanes will also encourage drivers to drive at a more appropriate speed along the
stretch of roadway. The proposed trail corridor provides more connectivity of pedestrian
modes of transportation to other amenities within Prescott.
The required maintenance agreement with WDOT is also into question with this project.
The committee does not favor signing an agreement to maintain a roadway (mainly curb
and gutter) that is not of good repair. The city would be expected to maintain all
elements of the ROW outside of the travelled lanes.
The total cost of the Cedar proposal for the trail is approximately $400,000 whereas the
original WDOT proposal totaled $1.2 million.
1
The Committee looked to propose 2 options, one with a trail stretching the entire way to
Magee Park, and a lesser option where the trail stops at Monroe Street.
B) Locust Street Design Review and Discussion
Cedar Corporation has put together a draft concept plan that was shared with residents
of the street as part of a community meeting on January 4 at 5:00 pm. The committee
discussed adding a sidewalk, a bid alternative for street signage, streetlight inclusion,
and adding the Orange street lot to the project and adding potential under-road heating
systems to Orange Street.
Cedar Corporation presented information regarding the Locust Street Design.
Committee member Ruona requested to look into the type of lighting that Xcel provides
for the streets. It was also expressed to look into the under-road heating for the three
steep hills that Prescott has.
It was stressed from Committee Member Ruona that there are numerous trees being
removed. Cedar Corporation added that many of the trees are unwell in health, and they
can be replaced with new trees.
C) Well #4 Generator
The City of Prescott currently does not have a generator back-up for Well #4, which is
our largest well currently operating within the City. In discussing with CBS Squared as
part of the design work for Well #3 they have recommended a generator be added to
this well, which was included in the 2023-2030 Capital Improvement Plan. The
generator will serve as an emergency power back-up for the well system.
City Administrator Matt Wolf presented information regarding a backup generator for
Well #4. DPW Director Mike Kinneman explained that an emergency generator could be
available for “on-call” if we were to need it immediately. A new generator would cost
$57,405.
Committee member Ruona motioned to move the matter to Council; Peterson
seconded. Motion passed without a negative voice (3-0).
D) 541 Linn Street – Utility Bill Reduction
The City of Prescott currently uses a program called READY (READ-ie) for quarterly
readings to determine water usage for utility bills. The current meters the City uses have
the ability to tell if there is continuous flowing water through the meter within a home. If
this occurs the system flags this meter as a “leak”.
City Administrator Matt Wolf presented information regarding the utility bill reduction.
541 Linn Street experienced high than normal water bills and discovered a leak in the
water system at the home. Committee Member Peterson asked how the City can
prevent this in the future to which City Administrator Wolf responded saying there will be
2
a letter going out to all properties that are of the “leak” status in the READY system. The
leak 541 Linn Street was fixed and a reduction in the bill was requested.
The committee discussed updating the reading system to be able to read the entire city
on demand, rather than a radio frequency being read from a vehicle.
Committee Member Ruona motioned to require payment of the 3rd quarter billing
rather than the 4th quarter billing. Knox seconded; motion passed without a
negative voice (3-0).
3. Parks Items
A) Fairy Wonderland Discussion
Members of the Fairy Wonderland organization will be present to give an update on the
current work and discuss upcoming additional phases.
The Fairy Wonderlands group is working on Phase 2 of the park. The request that the
bathrooms building, and parking be added to the budget for the park updates by the
City. Committee Member Ruona explained that a general project timeline would be
helpful to plan the improvements of the Park. The group explained a better picture of the
timeline would come in during the Spring when grant funding is secured.
B) Proposed Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Amendments
Staff is pursuing Knowles-Nelson stewardship funds for the Magee Park Renovation
Project for 2024. As a part of the requirements for the grant, the project must be listed in
the Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (CORP). Staff also is of the opinion that
an update of all the “recommendations” per park in the Chapter 6 Park and Recreational
Inventory should be completed.
Planner Carter Hayes presented information regarding the proposed amendments.
Committee Member Ruona mentioned changing the verbiage to multi-recreational trail
rather than “hiking trail” in one of the recommendations.
Committee Member Ruona motioned to approve the proposed CORP
Amendments. Knox seconded; motion passed without a negative voice (3-0).
C) Pickleball Courts Proposal – Public Square
In the last meeting discussing Public Square Pickleball, staff presented various cost
estimates regarding 4 courts and other improvements to Public Square Park. Staff and
the Prescott Pickleball Group discussed reducing the scope to 2 courts to decrease
cost, which was approved as part of the 2023 budget.
Planner Carter Hayes presented information regarding the Pickleball Court updates.
The City has received numerous proposals for pickleball courts. Most recently from Fred
Kolkmann, although going with Fred Kolkmann would cause the City to be overbudget
of approximately 15-20% for the project. Cedar Corporation is willing to create a basic
3
bid package that would hopefully bring the project cost back into budget with
competitive bids. The committee decided that, when a bid proposal from Cedar
Corporation is received, that it will move straight to Council for approval.
4. Other Business
A) Council Workshop – January 23rd at 5:00 PM. – Downtown paid parking.
5. Adjourn
Ruona motioned to adjourn. Peterson seconded; motion passed without a
negative voice (3-0) at 7:12 pm
The next Parks Committee meeting will be February 20th, 2023.
