Phase I was focused on the Inventory and Needs Assessment. Phase II involved preparing the Park Master Plan document, A detailed outline of the process is as follows: PHASE I - INVENTORY AND NEEDS Data Collection & Base apoinq OOOOO CO OOOOOOOO The team prepared a base map from the digital/GIS data provided by the City. The ( base map illustrated information such as existing park sites, schools, city facilities, 01 drainage corridors, streets, etc. InYn 8 tgrY .(1uPP.IY.A.n? Yss. The team was provided a current inventory of the entire park system. Team members and City staff performed a tour of the existing parks and recreational facilities 02 , available in Wylie. Each site was documented for its existing conditions and amenities. Population & Demographic Trends The team obtained the latest updates of demographic and population data from City Staff and the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG).This included n factors of population, race, housing, employment, income, and future growth. No Benchmark Analysis The team selected peer city park systems in the North Texas region that coincide with some of the characteristics of Wylie. City staff and team members toured these cities 04 to review park developments, recreational facilities, and maintenance levels. Standards Analysis The team utilized some of the published recommendations by the National Recreation „04°' and Park Association (NRPA), as well as local DFW guidelines, for evaluating 05 standards for both park acreages and facilities. . Public hut& Needs Assessment /CD' Ite With National Service Research leading this effort, a series of steps were utilized to 6 determine the park and recreation needs of the community. This included four (4) /7"44z, visioning sessions with Wylie citizens, and then an online survey through the City's website. From the feedback, the team was able to quantify the specific needs of the citizens.

A key part of this evaluation was comparing the needs of the present population as well as considering future growth expected. This Master Plan includes a selection of traditional standards established by the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA), especially applicable to growing communities like Wylie. The NRPA standards have been the most widely accepted and used standards for decades. This section includes a comparison of Wylie's current park system to NRPA standards based upon park acreage per population, as well as recreational facilities per population. Criteria for Standards The most common standards for park planning, as recognized by park and recreational professionals, are the published standards by the NRPA. As acknowledged in their publications, the NRPA recognizes the 'Importance of establishing and using park and recreation standards as: A Enational expression of minimum acceptable facilities for the citizens of urban and rural communities A guideline to determine land requirements for various kinds of park 1-j and recreation areas and facilities A basis for relating recreation needs to spatial analysis within a community wide system of parks and open spaces One of the major structuring elements that can be used to guide and assist regional development A means to Justify the need for parks and open space within the overall land use pattern of a region or community The purpose of the NRPA standards is to present park and recreation space guidelines that are applicable for planning, acquisition, and development of parks systems. These standards should be viewed as a guide by those municipalities that use them. The standards are to be coupled with the expertise of park planners when evaluating a community to which they are applied. Variations in the standards can also be established to reflect the unique social and geographical conditions of the community. CITY OF WYLIE I STANDARDS 1 68 JAI f'V PARKS, RECREATION & OPEN SPACE MASTER PLAN Park Classification System As the team evaluated Wylie's park system, they slightly revised the classification of each park by type, size, service area, and acres per 1,000 population. The following five (5) NRPA classifications for parks were used for this Master Plan: Neighborhood Park Neighborhood parks serve a variety of age groups within a limited area or "neighborhood". They range in size from 1-15 acres and generally serve residents within a V4 to %z mile radius. The neighborhood park is an area for active recreation such as field games, court games, playgrounds, picnicking, etc. Facilities are generally unlighted and there is limited parking, if any, on site. NRPA standards for these parks are I to 2 acres per 1,000 population. Community Park Community parks are larger than neighborhood parks and serve several neighborhoods. They range in size from 16-99 acres and serve the entire City. The community park may be a natural area or developed area for a variety of outdoor recreation such as ballfields, playgrounds, boating, fishing, swimming, camping, picnicking, and trail systems. NRPA standards for these parks are 5 to 8 acres per 1,000 population. Regional Park Regional parks are very large multi -use parks that serve several communities within a particular region. They range in size from 500 acres and above and serve those areas within a one hour driving distance. The regional park provides both active and passive recreation, with a wide selection of facilities for all age groups. They may also include areas of nature preservation for activities such as sight-seeing, nature study area, wildlife habitat, and conservation areas. NRPA standards for regional parks vary due to the specific site and natural resources. Special Use Areas Special use areas and parks are for specialized or single purpose recreation activities. NRPA defines these areas such as historical areas, nature centers, marinas, zoos, conservatories, arboretums, arenas, amphitheaters, plazas or community squares. There are no specific standards for size or acreage since each community will vary. Linear Park Linear parks are built connections or natural corridors that link parks together. Typically, the linear park is developed for one or more modes or recreational travel such as walking, Jogging, biking, in-line skating, hiking, horseback riding, and canoing. NRPA does not have any specific standards for linear parks other than they should be sufficient to protect the resources and provide maximum usage.

CITY OF WYLIE I STANDARDS 1 70 JAI f'V PARKS, RECREATION & OPEN SPACE MASTER PLAN For its current population of approximately 52,500 the city of Wylie is above standards for providing neighborhood parks and is below standards for providing community parks. For its projected population In 2023, the city of Wylie is expected to continue to exceed standards for providing neighborhood parks to its citizens. The deficit in providing community parks is expected to increase.

This allows City leaders to understand the importance of annual budgeting and strategies that will meet the needs throughout the Wylie community. The priorities in this section are a result of incorporating the inventory of the current resources, benchmarking outcomes, and citizen survey into a ranking of priority needs. At the completion of the citizen survey during the needs assessment phase, a method of ranking priorities was implemented. This method included using specific input from the citizen survey results, Park Board, City Staff, and the Dunaway team. The following weighted values were assigned to each: Citizen Input / Survey Results (55%) The specific needs and requests by the Wylie community as tabulated from the citizen survey Steering Committee (20%) The specific parks and recreation needs in Wylie as identified by the appointed Steering Committee members Parks & Recreation Department to The specific needs as identified by City staff based upon recreation programs and demands upon resources Dunaway Team (10%) The specific recommendations by the Dunaway planning team based upon assessing the unique needs of the Wylie community, current park resources, demographic profile, and future demands for recreational resources The results of the priority ranking were tabulated into three categories: High Priority, Moderate Priority, and Low Priority. The table on the following page provides a summary of the priorities for Wylie.

Over time much of the infrastructure in the parks has aged and exceeded their life cycle. The biggest challenge will be prioritizing new capital dollars that will provide for needed park renovations, expansions, and new amenities. To increase capital dollars, Wylie has an opportunity to pursue a variety of other funding sources that would add to the City's financial resources. Some of the following sources can be a part of the overall implementation plan. 1111, 101", 1 M-1,110 To meet needs identified for a growing park system, there are various methods for obtaining additional park land in the appropriate category. This includes land (or fees) donated by developers within the requirements of a park dedication ordinance. As part of this master plan, the Dunaway team reviewed the City's current park dedication ordinance and provided recommendations for revising the ordinance to City staff. One of the biggest challenges facing City leaders in Implementing a park master plan will be prioritizing new capital dollars that will provide for needed park renovations, expansions, and new amenities. To achieve this, City leaders will need to outline an annual strategy for funding capital improvements across the entire park system. To add to the City's available financial resources, Wylie has an opportunity to pursue a wide range of other sources that would help fund the various capital improvements prioritized in this plan.
