Notes de l'éditeur
- STEVE Clean Water Facility construction will impact certain areas of the park, like the eastern part of the RV park and nearby restrooms and kitchens. Funding for the facility mandates that these elements are restored after construction. Restoring these elements means bringing them up to current codes and standards. The City seized the opportunity to plan for updating all of the park, not just the areas impacted by Clean Water Facility construction.
- STEVE The WPIP is the synthesis of past planning efforts, existing reports and required mitigation on for the Clean Water Facility. There were three master plans that preceded the WPIP including, The City Beach Park Master Plan from 1987, The Windjammer Plan from 2005 and the Revised Windjammer Plan in 2007. Existing reports include the Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan of 2009. These plans and reports contain park elements and park improvements that have been considered and integrated into the WPIP. Each of the plans, and subsequently reiterated in the WPIP, identified upgrades needed in Windjammer Park – from cracked pavement, to wind shelters eroded away, to safety improvements that meet current standards, etc.
- STEVE We heard a lot of feedback from the public and the community advisory group. The main themes we heard are listed on the first page of your handout, and some are listed here. The waterfront park is a resource and asset for the City of Oak Harbor; it should be welcoming for locals and visitors. Park elements should be considered a given. Family-friendly elements and activities should be prioritized. Flexibility of spaces is important, as is spacing between them to maximize number of activities, yet providing connections. Removal of the existing RV park. Views of the water from the park are important everyday casual users, and formal events, for example 4th of July and Race Week. Removal of the current, formal ball fields can allow for other activities within Windjammer Park as long as they are replaced within the City. Neighbors of Windjammer Park should be considered during final design.
- STEVE Initial work following adoption of the plan is to design areas that require restoration following Clean Water Facility completion in 2018. While any portion of the park could feasibly be built at any point after the first, the WPIP illustrated how a series of six phases could be constructed, concluding with relocation and renovation of the existing ball fields. This phase includes: Landscaping and irrigation Event plaza Enhanced wetlands Parking
