Village of Weston Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting November 27th, 2023
EDUCATIONAL PRESENTATIONS & REPORTS
6. Discussion and possible action Kennedy Park Master Plan.
Osterbrink stated the Park Committee passed the current version of the Kennedy Master Plan
at the October 30th Park and Recreation Committee meeting. The Village Board deferred
action on this item at the November 20th Village Board of Trustees meeting due to Osterbrink
being absent and excused to address their questions and concerns. So, Osterbrink brought
back the plan to the Park Committee to discuss the concerns the Village Board has and to
present the cost estimates that were not available at the October 30th meeting.
Osterbrink asked the Committee if the current plan is the vision of Kennedy Park 5 to 20
years down the road. Osterbrink explained that the park will be developed in phases to keep
the park operational for baseball, softball, and for other user groups.
Osterbrink addressed the concerns on the cost estimate of the development of the park. He
explained that the estimates seem high because we must consider future price increases. It
may take 20 years to develop this park, so you don’t want to base the cost estimates solely
on 2023 prices. Osterbrink addressed the $750,000.00 concern of mobilization fees. He
explained that the number seems high but because of the phasing and the multiple
contractors that will be used for the development of the park. Each contractor usually
charges a mobilization fee.
Wodalski stated that the cost estimate of 1.5 million dollars in earth work and demo could be
decreased by having staff complete some of the work. Osterbrink stated that other costs can
be decreased. For example, Rettler quoted using black vinyl coated chain link fencing which
galvanized chain link could be substituted to save cost.
Osterbrink and Wodalski explained that by knowing the projected costs, the user groups and
the Village can work on fundraising and grants.
The Committee agrees that the proposed Kennedy Master Plan is the direction and vision
they have for Kennedy Park. Weiland explained that currently, the layout of Kennedy Park
does not have the facilities to hold large numbers of people for tournaments. The proposed
plan has a better flow and layout to accommodate larger group events at the park.
Ermeling asked if the thought was to get started on this right away. Osterbrink responded
that youth baseball wants to start fundraising and the school district has an immediate need
for fields. This plan and cost estimates are what the Village and user groups need to
approach foundations and apply for grants. Ermeling would like to move forward with the
project. Osterbrink mentioned that the first step is to set a dollar amount goal for fundraising
and then start with the architecture and design plans. Then work on Village staffing needs
and maintenance agreements with user groups.
Clark stated that the user groups need to know the Village’s commitment in moving forward
Village of Weston Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting November 27th, 2023
and work towards an end goal. Then the user groups will be more invested to fundraise.
Osterbrink also mentioned that each field is listed separately in the cost estimate so if the
decision is to move forward with fields #4 and #5 for example, baseball and softball could use
those estimates as a first goal to reach fundraising.
Weiland received an email from Committee member Corvino asking how the Village gets
local organizations to jump on board and fundraising. Osterbrink responded that once the
master plan is approved the user groups are ready to start the process of fundraising. Youth
organizations can approach Greenheck, Dudley, and other foundations for funds and are
more likely to receive them before a government entity does.
Osterbrink and Wodalski stated the need for Board of Trustees approval first then have a
meeting with the user groups to discuss and assign items on the cost estimate to each
organization to raise funds. Also, discuss maintenance agreements with each group.
Wodalski also mentioned that the well house is planned to be updated into a multipurpose
building housing: the well, restrooms, warming area for ice skaters, and seasonal equipment
storage for parks. Meaning one existing building instead of 4 currently. This is part of the
Utilities and Parks plan even if the rest of the park does not get developed.
Osterbrink also mentioned that the proposed shelter area is doubled in size compared to the
existing one to accommodate more people.
*M/S/P Ermeling/Esker: to recommend approval of the Kennedy Master Plan with no
changes and to develop the park in phases with fundraising to the Board of Trustees.

POLICY ISSUES – DISCUSSIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS
7. Discussion and possible action Prohaska Park Master Plan.
Village of Weston Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting November 27th, 2023
Osterbrink explained that the Prohaska Master Plan was also deferred at the November 20th
Board of Trustees meeting because of his absence and the concerns that Trustees had. The
main concern that the Trustees had was about the campground, and who will operate and
maintain it. Osterbrink stated that the campground would add some additional maintenance
from staff emptying extra garbage cans and occasionally fire pits. The option of providing
sewer and water hookups at each site would be a bonus because the Village would not have
to provide a dumping or washout station. The sewer would be gravity fed into the sanitary
system so no pumps are needed. Winterizing the sewer and water lines would add minimal
staff time. Staff currently winterize 7 restrooms, the Aquatic Center, and several irrigation
systems. Osterbrink stated that the Village could contact the County and discuss if they would
want to manage another campground since they oversee 3 other campgrounds.
Overall, Osterbrink stated he had received positive feedback on urban camping. When
baseball holds tournaments, families from out of town would fill the campsites those
weekends. The campground would be a source of revenue for the Village. Osterbrink stated
with the presence of campers could reduce the vandalism that could occur at night if no one
was around.
Clark asked about the walking trails throughout the park. Osterbrink stated that most of the
paths are still visible and just need to be brushed and mowed. The paths once opened would
be mowed monthly during the season.
Ermeling asked about the 10 acres that are considered wetlands on the north end of the park.
Osterbrink said that nothing was presented in that area on the plan because it is so wet but,
Osterbrink mentioned mountain biking could be a possible idea for that area, a single width
path with boardwalk in unpassable areas.
Osterbrink explained what gaga ball is and that visitors would have to bring their own ball for
gaga ball and bean bags for bag toss.
Osterbrink told the Committee that we received a question from a Trustee as to why the public
currently has no access to Prohaska Park. The Committee and staff discussed putting
garbage cans out and placing barricades at the turnaround and allowing public access. The
Village will not plow the park entrance in winter.
Ermeling asked what the reasoning is for camping. Osterbrink responded that it can be an
option for a place to stay when attending area events. Examples, Wausau Ballon Rally,
baseball tournaments, or the Greenheck Turner Center on a weekend.
Clark understands families staying at a campground during tournaments because there is a lot
of down time where the family can go back to the site and let the kids run and be in nature
while still being close to town. Also, the infrastructure is established in this area already.
Ermeling asked how you would regulate who camps there. Osterbrink responded that the
Village could use the current software program used to reserve park shelters and buy pool
passes. Osterbrink commented he believes if the campground was promoted with all the
Village of Weston Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting November 27th, 2023
different types of events held around the area the campground would be utilized.
The Committee discussed a minimum of a two-night site reservation to lessen staff time
coming in on weekends and possible pricing of $50 per night.
Gerbert suggested having a campground host to stay the weekend and oversee the sites. The
host would be available to provide information to the visitors on events happening around the
area or answer general questions. Osterbrink stated that the Village could see how it goes
and see if there is a need for a host or not.
Osterbrink stated that in the purchase agreement, the land must be developed into a park.
Clark is excited for the development of this park because it is different from the rest of the
parks the Village has. This property encourages people to get outside and accommodates all
age groups.
*M/S/P Esker/Clark: to recommend approval of the Prohaska Master Plan with no
changes to the Board of Trustees.

Ryan Gardner from D.C. Everest Youth Hockey (DCEYH) commented that the organization
would like to partner with the Village to possibly build an outdoor ice facility that the Hockey
organization would have exclusive use of with a financial commitment from the organization.
Village of Weston Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting October 30, 2023
The Village has the only full-sized outdoor hockey rink in the area. Gardner’s thoughts are to
have a concrete base and overhead cover. The organization would be interested in hosting
tournaments.
Corvino asked Gardner if there is a layout or an organization that he thinks has done well
and that Gardner would recommend. Gardner recommended the Eagle River Pond Hockey
tournament that is held every year but, to keep the tournament at youth level.
EDUCATIONAL PRESENTATIONS & REPORTS
6. Presentation from Rettler Corporation
Ross and Rebecca from Rettler Corporation presented the draft of the Comprehensive
Outdoor Recreation Plan (CORP). Ross stated that the CORP plan is a formal document
designed to assist communities in planning and developing parks and open space. The
CORP: establishes park related goals and objectives, inventories existing park and
recreational facilities, updates demographic information, analyzes parkland and recreational
needs, integrates community input, prioritizes projects into the Capital Improvements Plan
(CIP) for completion, identifies lists of potential funding programs and grant opportunities, and
the approval of the CORP is required for a municipality to apply for and receive State and
Federal Grants.
The CORP is part of the Village’s Comprehensive Plan and is split into two sections. The
Village of Weston Comprehensive Plan Volume 1: Conditions and Issues Chapter 9: Parks
and Recreation include: Overview, Parkland Inventory, Parkland Analysis, Needs
Assessment, Implementation Strategies, and References. The Village of Weston
Comprehensive Plan Volume 2: Vision and Directions Chapter 7: Parks and Recreation
include: Introduction and Recommendations.
Listed below are selected highlights of we received from the public through on-line surveys,
public, user group, and staff meetings, email, comment sheets, and group discussions at
meetings.
• Most Used Parks: Kennedy, Machmueller, Yellowbanks, and Kellyland Parks, followed
by the Dog Park.
• 66% are “Satisfied” or “Very Satisfied” with park system.
• Top 5 Most Important Park Amenities: aquatic facility, paved trails, park signage,
parking lots, and unpaved trails.
• Top 5 Most Important Park Amenities: restrooms, aquatic facility, playground
equipment, trails (paved), trails (unpaved)
• Top 3 Most Requested Amenities/Additional Amenities: restrooms, playground
equipment, trails (paved and unpaved).
• About half of the general comments included compliments to the Parks Department.
• Facilities used in other communities: trails, playgrounds, pickleball/tennis courts, and
aquatic facilities.
Village of Weston Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting October 30, 2023
Osterbrink stated he received a few comments Trustees Pinsonneault and Zeyghami.
Zeyghami pointed out that the estimate for installing pickleball courts at
Machmueller Park shows 6 instead of 16 and the concept plan does not show an additional
restroom facility or provide shade near the courts. Also, the concept shows 12 courts not 16.
Weiland stated that the concept for Kellyland shows pickleball courts and Osterbrink
responded that the staff and Committee recommended removing the courts from Kellyland.
Osterbrink stated that there is more funding/grants for passive use items like trails,
restrooms and shade structures versus active use items like pickleball courts.
Trustee Pinsonneault would like to know the maintenance cost for all the parks. Osterbrink
responded that the yearly Parks budget is a little over $400,000 and that includes staff and
current maintenance allowance. Osterbrink stated that the budget does not include future
expansion or maintenance costs of parks. Pinsonneault would like Osterbrink to include
future costs and Osterbrink responded that currently the CORP provides concepts and plans
which are not set in stone. Also, any future expansions or maintenance costs would be
presented to the Committees and Board for recommendations and approval before the
projects are implemented.
Weiland would like to add more solar lights and shade area at the dog park.
Rettler received the recommended changes from staff, Committee, and Board members
before the meeting and made the changes to the document.
POLICY ISSUES – DISCUSSIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS
7. Discussion and possible action Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan.
Discussion was held at the end of Rettler’s presentation and noted above.
Zeyghami asked how many parking stalls are currently at Machmueller Park and Osterbrink
responded 150. Zeyghami would also like Rettler to add shade area to the west side of the
courts and propose a north/south court layout and east/west gate entrance. Zeyghami would
like the updated project cost of installing the pickleball courts at Machmueller Park sent to him.
Pinsonneault stated he would like Rettler to add irrigation, watering, and staff time in the
current and proposed maintenance estimates.

Recreation Plan with changes to the Board of Trustees.

8. Discussion and possible action Kennedy Park Master Plan.
Rettler presented the proposed master concept plan of Kennedy Park. Through discussions
with staff, Committee, user, and public groups the master plan was created. The plan favors
the installation of baseball/softball complex as the main attraction. The parking lot was
expanded on the West side of the park to accommodate the complex and provide access to
the soft surface playground that was added to that side of the park. Six batting cages were
added just outside of the Northeast corner of the Aquatic Center fence. The plan proposes
two large baseball fields with one infield being turf and three little league/softball fields with
two having turf infields. The design of the complex includes a concession/restroom/scoring
area in the middle. The South little league/softball field is designed into the hill having the
spectator area placed behind and higher than the field which is a unique design. The
bullpens that are located on the big fields can also serve as batting cages. Osterbrink
explained that the layout and design of the ball complex was picked because the fields can be
installed in phases without interrupting play. Fields 4, 5, and most of 2 can be built right now.
The proposed changes to the Aquatic Center include a new soft surface playground,
replacing the old sand play area, removing the volleyball court, and adding an additional
shade structure along the north side of the pool deck.
The volleyball court, #22 on the plan, is suggested to be relocated where the existing
restroom is located near the shelter. The new proposed shelter will have a restroom attached.
The plan shows a small addition to the north end of the skatepark. This area will be flat and
accommodate beginner level skaters.
The east parking lot has been expanded to provide 154 parking stalls. This will provide
parking for the skatepark, shelter and playground area, and additional parking for
baseball/softball.
Trustee Pinsonneault asked if access to the turf fields will be restricted. The Committee’s
response is yes, the turf fields will be restricted to the public, but not the other fields.
The Northwest corner of the park will be redeveloped by removing the existing park buildings.
The area is designed with a new building that will house the well, provide park storage and
Village of Weston Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting October 30, 2023
serve as a warming house with restrooms.
Tee-ball fields, hockey and open rinks will also be in this area. A suggestion from Ryan
Gardner, representative from D.C.Everest Youth Hockey, is to build the hockey rink with a
concrete pad and shelter roof. The rink will then be usable year-round, ice hockey in the
winter months and roller ball the rest of the year. By making this change, two of the tee-ball
fields will need to be relocated near the garbage enclosure and shed just south of the
proposed soft surface playground.
Trustee Pinsonneault asked if there will be user fees to offset the maintenance costs.
Osterbrink stated that baseball has invested in Kennedy Park over the years by upgrading the
fields, installing irrigation, lighting, scoreboards, fencing, etc. In the future the Village will
meet with the user groups and consider constructing a maintenance agreement plan.
*M/S/P Corvino/Esker: to recommend approval of the Kennedy Park Master Plan with
changes to the Board of Trustees.

9. Discussion and possible action Prohaska Park Master Plan.
Rettler presented the proposed master concept plan of Prohaska Park. Through discussions
with staff, committee, user, and public groups the master plan was created. The main
entrance of the park is from Weston Ave with keeping a staff maintenance entrance from
Ryan St. The restroom was moved south from the original location to accommodate the disc
golf and camping areas and allow the sewer to gravity flow to Weston Avenue versus
installing a grinder pump/lift station. There are 12 RV sites proposed that will have sewer and
water hook ups. The plan shows a gazebo installed near one of the ponds, a path coming
from the playground/shelter area to a pond with a fishing pier, and multiple walking trails
throughout the park. An 18-hole disc golf course is proposed in the Southeast corner of the
park.
Weiland suggested adding stationary games like bag toss and Gaga ball pits. This will
provide more options for campers besides walking the trails. Weiland would also like to add
Village of Weston Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting October 30, 2023
an additional fishing pier on the larger pond.
Clark and Trustee Pinsonneault asked if there are tent sites. Osterbrink said the proposed
sites can accommodate RV’s or tents.

10. Discussion and possible action Playground Proposals.
Osterbrink received playground proposals from Burke, Gametime, and Landscape Structures.
Osterbrink presented a spreadsheet with the following estimates for: individual structures,
concrete borders, engineered wood fiber and a total cost estimate for each playground
structure from all three companies. Recommendation from Rettler Corporation is to install a
12-inch wide by 12-inch concrete border because the concrete holds up well and then you will
know when to add wood fiber. Due to the heights of the structures, it is a requirement to have
a 12-inch depth of safety fall zone material. Also, the concrete is flush with the ground
making mowing easier.
Wodalski asked if the roof structures on some of the playground equipment proposed by
Burke are solid or fabric. And if fabric does it have to be removed. Osterbrink will follow up
with Lee Recreation, representative of Burke.
Osterbrink stated that Burke is limited due to their production schedule. If the Committee
chooses Burke a decision will have to be made before Thanksgiving week otherwise
structures would not be installed in 2024. He also stated that ARPA contracts need to be
signed by the end of 2024 and projects completed by the end of 2026.
Gametime has a price increase coming. The current quote is good until the third week of
November.
All the proposed structures are for ages 5-12 years old. Gametime and Landscape
Structures went off the footprint of Burkes proposal because Burke was the only manufacturer
that sent a proposal back in July.
Village of Weston Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting October 30, 2023
The Committee would like to add a play structure at Prohaska Park and an additional
playground structure at Yellowbanks Park.
Weiland asked what the Village was going to do with the old playground structures and if they
could be donated to a small community or campground. Osterbrink responded; due to the
age of the equipment the structures may not be in good enough condition.
Corvino asked if it is necessary to replace the play structure at Kennedy because of the
master plan design for that park. Osterbrink responded; the new structure will be replacing
the current structure in the same location. This will not have any impact on the master
concept plan of Kennedy Park.
Osterbrink explained to the Committee that they should pick a manufacturer and how many
structures to replace or add.
Corvino asked if Osterbrink has worked with any of the vendors in the past. Osterbrink
mentioned that the Village has worked with Lee Recreation, representative of Burke. Lee
Recreation installed the playground structure at Machmueller Park and were great to work
with.
Weiland asked if the Committee went with Burke, would the Village contract out the
installation of the concrete border. Osterbrink stated that the Village would probably contract
out the concrete border regardless of the company the Committee recommends. Village staff
would install the engineered wood fiber.
Weiland would like handicap swings installed at community parks – Kennedy, Kellyland,
Machmueller, and Kennedy. Weiland suggested adding an obstacle course at Yellowbanks
as the second structure. Weiland also likes the traditional carousel.
Osterbrink stated Village staff would remove the current play structures and complete the
excavation for the installation of the new structures.
*M/S/P Corvino/Clark: to recommend to the Board of Trustees to install 7 play
structures in 2024 and use Burke Manufacturing.

MONTHLY DEPARTMENT REPORT TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
#2023-11 FOR OCTOBER 2023
1.ITEMS OF SPECIAL NOTE
BOARD AGENDA ITEMS
1. Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan
2. Kennedy Park Master Plan
3. Prohaska Park Master Plan
2. WORK PLAN PROJECTS
1. Filtration system at the aquatic center – Need to return to this project.
2. Security Camera System – The installation has been completed. We
still need to get additional staff trained along with Everest Metro.
3. Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (CORP) Update and Master
Plans – Rettler gave a presentation regarding the CORP and master
plans to the committee at their Monday, October 30th meeting. The
updated plans have been received and distributed to the committee,
board, and staff. We are currently waiting for the cost estimates for the
master plans, which we should receive this week and will either be
included in the packet or sent via a separate email and then added to
the packet. The Park and Recreation Committee recommend approval of
all three plans with the changes suggested at their meeting.
4. New Park Signage – The new park signage has been completed at all
locations and final payment has been made to the contractor.
5. Playgrounds – The Park and Recreation Committee recommended
approval of moving forward with Lee Recreation (Burke) with 6
playgrounds and adding one more area at Yellowbanks at their October
30th meeting. After reviewing the proposals and spreadsheet following
this meeting, I noticed that I somehow missed an entire playground on
the spreadsheet from Lee Recreation (Burke). So based on the updated
amounts they were no longer the lowest proposal. After making the
correction Minnesota/Wisconsin Playground (Gametime) had the lowest
proposal. This item was taken to the special board meeting on
November 2 and due to the addition of the 7th area they did not award to
a specific vendor. The board approved a do not exceed amount, and
that all playgrounds must be completed in 2024. This will allow staff to
determine who gets awarded the projects once we get updated cost on
adding the 7th area. This should be completed this week.
6. Yellowbanks Disc Golf Course Delineation – Delineation has been
completed and we have received the map and letter. Information has
been shared with Wausau Area Disc Golf Enthusiasts and they are
excited to begin working on secondary pin placement and other
improvements that they laid out in their proposal from this spring.
