Agenda Item 
XI. E.  Engineering Agreement to Proceed with Phase 1 of Market Park Master Plan 
 
Overview 
The FY 2025 -26 approved Capital Improvement Fund budget contains $250,000  to prepare a 
master plan of needed improvements for Market Park and a phased approach to install those 
improvements. Kimley Horn was engaged to prepare the master plan , obtain stakeholder 
comments, and develop cost estimates for all phases for a fee of $10,000. After engaging various 
community partners and obtaining their comments including the Parks & Recreation Advisory 
Committee, City Council Advisory Committee, Main Street, and Friendly City Festivals , a 
master plan and estimated costs were completed. The report dated October 14, 2025 is attached.  
 
To proceed with Phase 1 using the remainder of the allocated budget, Kimley Horn has prepared 
a proposal which consists of site civil engineering and permitting to include the installation of a 
new electrical transformer/infrastructure, and installing a level 2 EV charging station that was 
previously acquired through a grant  (proposal is attached) as well as preliminary design of the 
parking lot improvements shown on the master plan.  
 
Once Phase 1 has been designed, it will be competitively bid out for construction, awarded, and 
constructed prior to June 30, 2026. Phase 2 expenses (parking lot improvements) will be placed 
in the upcoming FY 2026-27 Capital Improvement Fund budget to continue the project. Phase 
3 expenses (sidewalk and lands cape improvements) will be placed in the FY 2027- 28 Capital 
Improvement Fund budget to complete the project.
