Results of design group two
from second Zone Rec workshop

• Lots of trees in parking lot and throughout property
• Natural sound barrier along highway
• Pool with diving boards south of parking lot that possibly uses rainwater runoff from parking lot (first going through a filtration system);
• Pool house east of pool with concession stand, wading/ ice skating pool, water fountain;
• Possibly water park for little kids
• Convert part of building to a greenhouse; wildflower garden adjacent to it
• Public art at NW corner of grounds near street intersection
• Turn gazebo into picnic area with benches
• Move all fields west, minimizing gap between soccer field and gazebo area
• In far east area, construct wetland with a mini nature center (with programming such as stream restoration); include picnic tables north of wetland
• Storm water runoff from parking lot that flows into restored stream running along the southern edge of the property to the wetland.
  
• On eastern edge of property make a promenade
• Put in more safety lights and bike racks scattered throughout property
• Add a path (biking and walking) to divide the natural wetland/ educational area and the recreational area
