Legacy Park Improvements

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
Legacy Park serves as both a public open space and a stormwater detention basin. While
the basin itself accommodates stormwater flows during rain events, adjacent and upland
areas of the park are indirectly affected by runoff -related conditions, including sediment
migration and periodic saturation. Over time, these conditions have resulted in vegetation
loss and exposed bare soil in areas outside of the active detention basin.
The project will restore vegetative cover in impacted areas outside of the detention basin
through targeted replanting. Plant materials were selected for suitability in variable moisture
conditions commonly associated with stormwater-adjacent landscapes. The planting
design emphasizes soil stabilization, erosion control, and improved site conditions while
minimizing long-term maintenance requirements.
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 26-11 approving the plans and
specifications for the Legacy Park Improvement Project and authorizing the City Clerk to
advertise to receive bids.
