Acknowledgments The development of this master plan for Fogerty Park was truly a group effort between the City of University City staff and officials, citizens, and the design team. Your participation and collaboration helped to create this document. Thank you for your contributions to this process! A Portion of funding provided by: Municipal Park Grant Commission of St. Louis County City of University City Residents City of University City Officials Park Commission City Council City of University City Department of Public Works and Parks Richard L. Wilson, P.E. - Director Megan Fuhler - Senior Project Manager Ewald Winker - Parks & Streets Operations Superintendent Mike Warmbold - Parks Division Crew Leader DG2 Design, Landscape Architecture Kristy DeGuire, PLA, ASLA - Principal Landscape Architect Jordan Wilkinson - Designer Brad Priest - Designer Fogerty Park Master Plan 3

Introduction Located on 82nd Boulevard in the northern part of University City, Fogerty Park is an established park that has been serving local residents since 1928. As user needs change and park amenities deteriorate in condition, it is time to rejuvenate and improve this neighborhood park to modern standards. This master plan process seeks to identify the successes and failures of Fogerty Park, and bring these findings to the public eye in a transparent and efficient process. This document will summarize the results of months of research, analysis, and design focused on bringing a new overall plan for Fogerty Park into fruition. This report is the result of collaboration with the citizens of University City, University City Staff and Park Commission, and the design team. Together this team set off with shared goal of developing a thoughtful plan that meets the needs of park users for years to come. Fogerty Park Master Plan 4

Fogerty Park Master Plan 5

Process Project Timeline: The project schedule for the development of the Fogerty Park Master Plan was largely driven by the requirements for submitting to the Municipal Park Grant Commission of St. Louis County. The next round of construction grant applications are due in October of 2015, and the rest of the project schedule was formed off of this deadline. The first public meeting with the City of University City was on April 21, 2015. Conceptual design and public outreach took place during May and June before the second public meeting on July 7, 2015. Following public feedback from meetings and surveys, the final design was refined for approval from the Park Commission and City Council in September and October respectively. Once the Master Plan document was completed in October, it was used by the Department of Public Works and Parks to apply for a Municipal Park Grant. Future construction of the Fogerty Park improvements will take place in 2016 pending a decision from the Municipal Park Grant Commission. 1 st Public Meeting 2 nd Public Meeting Apply for Grant Apr. 2015 May 2015 Jul. 2015 Aug. 2015 Oct. 2015 Conceptual Design Final Design Future Construction Fogerty Park Master Plan 6

Process Design Process: Throughout the design process, it was important to keep the project goals in mind. It was important for the design team to develop a vision and identity for Fogerty Park. This helps to create community ownership of the park and a higher quality park for all invested. Including all residents and addressing pedestrian safety and accessibility were also paramount in the design process. Finally, communicating the project timeline, process, and funding through public engagement was also a priority. The master plan design process consisted of four main phases: site analysis, program development, conceptual design, and final design. Working in conjunction with guidance from the Department of Public Works and Parks, the design team developed an understanding of the existing park site. After analyzing the site and learning about its history, the design team created a program of park features and amenities based on public feedback from meetings and surveys. Project Goals: Develop a vision for Fogerty Park Inclusion of all residents within the study area Build community ownership of Fogerty Park Communicate project timeline and funding Address pedestrian safety and access Two design concepts were generated for the second public meeting. A cycle of review and revision helped to refine one design concept into a final design that incorporates all of the public feedback that was received.

Fogerty Park Master Plan 8

Existing Conditions & Site Analysis University City Parks: The City of University City has 19 parks. According to the 2008 Parks Master Plan adopted by the Park Commission, there are 7 mini parks, 7 neighborhood parks, 4 special use parks, and 1 community park. Mona Terrace Fogerty Park, which is considered a neighborhood park (5-25 acres), is located along the northern edge of the city limits - just east of I-170 and between Page Ave. & Olive Blvd. Other neighborhood parks in the vicinity of Fogerty Park are Greensfelder Park, and Millar Park Greenway South Community Parks Neighborhood Parks Mini Parks Special Use Parks 8 Source: 2008 Parks Master Plan Fogerty Park Master Plan 9

Existing Conditions & Site Analysis Park History: Page 11.8 acres of land was acquired by the City of University City in 1928 for the construction of Fogerty Park. The park remained a fairly simple green-space with a 1/2 mile walking path until the construction of the tennis courts in the early 1980 s. They have been resurfaced once in 2005. The current playground was first constructed in 1997, with a planned replacement in 2013. I-170 N & S The park also features a pavilion/picnic shelter which is frequently rented for gatherings and family reunions in the summer. The baseball diamond & soccer field are both used by local groups for games and practices. Fogerty Park is known for its large open space and shaded picnic areas along the north side of the park. Olive There are approximately 1,850 residences within a 1/2 mile of Fogerty Park. This park service area extends south to Olive Blvd, east to North and South Rd, north to Page Ave, and west to I-170. The average age of residents in this study area is 44 years. Other major stakeholders include Barbara C. Jordan Elementary School, The Freedom School, and City of Life Christian Church. Fogerty Park 1/2 Mile Radius Park Service Area Fogerty Park Master Plan 10

Existing Conditions & Site Analysis 2008 University City Parks Master Plan: A Parks Master Plan was adopted by the City of University City Park Commission in 2008. The plan evaluated the condition of the City s 19 parks and prioritized the need for improvements at each park. Parks Master Plan According to the 2008 Parks Master plan, the evaluation of Fogerty Park found the following needs: Immediate Needs: Replace cracked walking path area behind shelter Stripe parking lot Trim Trees Paint shelter Check to see if light timers are correct Intermediate Needs (1-3 years): Replace playground with poured in place safety surface Resurface tennis courts and straighten net posts Replace sign Replace retaining wall Long Term Needs (3+ years): Backstop to protect player benches on baseball diamond Replace tennis courts with more durable surface and new fencing with bottom rails Upgrade lighting Adopted by Park Commission November 25, 2008 Source: 2008 Parks Master Plan Fogerty Park Master Plan 11

Existing Conditions & Site Analysis Pavilion / Restrooms: There are two small bathrooms within the existing park shelter. These restrooms are not well-lit, and do not fully comply with ADA regulations. As the only restrooms in the park, they are used by all park users - even when the pavilion is rented out for a private event. The pavilion itself is in fair condition and seats up to 50 people, but needs to be updated to better serve the needs of the park users. Recreation Fields: The existing recreation fields at Fogerty Park are in good condition. They consist of one softball/baseball diamond and one football/soccer field. The fields are in close proximity to each other, which may prohibit their use simultaneously. Often a smaller soccer field is painted in the left field area of the baseball field. The current turf is not irrigated and has many weeds, but seems to have held up well. Existing lighting in the area may need to be improved. Tennis Courts: The two tennis courts at Fogerty Park were constructed in their current location sometime in the early 1980 s. Although the courts were resurfaced in 2005, they are in poor condition currently not utilized by the residents. There is a considerable amount of surface cracking on the courts, and the fence post foundations are now exposed and threatened by freeze and thaw. Existing net posts for the courts are badly bent and in poor condition as well. Fogerty Park Master Plan 13

Existing Conditions & Site Analysis Playground: The playground at Fogerty Park was constructed in 1997 with a planned replacement in 2013. The playground has not been replaced as planned, and is in a state of disrepair. The current safety surface is wood chips. Overall, the playground needs to be upgraded and replaced with play modern play equipment that emphasizes the inclusion of multiple age ranges and play abilities. Site Furnishings: There seems to be an adequate amount of site furnishings throughout Fogerty Park, although their conditions are less than ideal. Currently, the park has both plastic and metal trash barrels. The drinking fountain near the tennis courts needs to be repainted, and the timber retaining wall in that area needs to be replaced. As suggested in the 2008 Parks Master Plan, a standard design for site furnishings should be implemented. Streetscape: The streetscape along 82nd Blvd. provides great sight-lines into the park. Existing pear trees along the sidewalk have split and been pruned below electrical lines. These trees should be removed and replaced with native species that will not interfere with the electrical lines above. Installing new trees further back (into the park) will provide space for a larger sidewalk while at the same time eliminating conflicts with the overhead wires. Fogerty Park Master Plan 14

Existing Conditions & Site Analysis 82nd Blvd. Laughlin Ave. 82nd Blvd. Laughlin Ave. Barbara C. Jordan Elementary Barbara C. Jordan Elementary N.T.S. N.T.S. Road or Parking Lot Pedestrian Path or Sidewalk Pedestrian Circulation Many park users enjoy using the 1/2 mile walking path that circles Fogerty Park. The 6 wide asphalt path has begun to crack in several areas - especially behind the pavilion. Narrow sidewalk access exists along 82nd Boulevard, but there is no direct access from Laughlin Avenue except for a staircase at the southeast corner of the park. Vehicular Circulation Vehicular circulation is limited at Fogerty Park. Although at one time there was a vehicular connection running from east to west across the site just north of the school, access is now limited to one entrance on 82nd Boulevard. Parking on the site is limited to 14 spots - as a result many park users park on side streets. There is currently one ADA accessible parking spot at the park. Fogerty Park Master Plan 15

Jordan Elementary N.T.S. 10% + 8% + 2-8% 1-2% Slope Analysis Fogerty Park slopes gently overall from west to east. The eastern edge of the park along Laughlin Ave. has the most severe slopes. The area between the playground and the fields also has some moderate slopes that may limit accessibility. N.T.S. Sun Lt. Shade Sun / Shade Analysis Shade A large portion of the park has great shade coverage from the large trees that exist on the site. Larger open areas such as the soccer and baseball fields, as well as the playground have limited shade. There is opportunity to improve the amount of shade at the playground. Fogerty Park Master Plan 16

Existing Conditions & Site Analysis Vegetation: The existing landscape at the park consists mostly of a traditional lawn with mature deciduous trees. The lawn is a well-established mixture of turf grass and common weeds - typical of a non-irrigated but mowed area. The existing trees vary in size and condition, but most are at least 12 or greater when measured in diameter. Tree species include White Oak (Quercus alba), Bald Cypress (Taxodium distichum), and several Sweet Gums (Liquidambar styraciflua). The Sweet Gums provide shade for the northern part of the site, but drop a lot of Gum Balls which create a maintenance and safety concern in the winter and spring seasons when they typically drop. These trees surround much of the playground, pavilion, and paths. 82nd Blvd. Laughlin Ave. Barbara C. Jordan Elementary Tree Canopy Coverage N.T.S. Canopy Cover The canopy cover provided by the existing trees is estimated to be between 35-45% of the total site. Fogerty Park Master Plan 17

Existing Conditions & Site Analysis Soil Analysis: According to the Natural Resources Conservation Service Web Soil Survey, the site at Fogerty Park is almost entirely a Urban Land-Harvester Complex. This type of soil complex is typical of the area, and the soil profile usually features 0-7 inches of silt loam, 7-31 inches of silty clay loam, and 31-80 inches of clay loam before bedrock. It is estimated that the water table in this soil complex is 30-36 inches deep, and is moderately welldrained. This soil complex does not have any limiting features for building or siting structures. A very small portion (less than 1%) of the site contains a Fishpot- Urban Land complex which is typical of a poorly drained stream terrace. The water table in this area is estimated at 12-24 inches deep, which would not be recommended for siting structures. Soil Map: USDA NRCS Web Soil Survey N.T.S. 70% = 60025: Urban land-harvester complex, 2-9% slopes 29% = 60223: Urban land-harvester complex, 9-20% slopes 1% = 66092: Fishpot-Urban land complex, 0-5% slopes, rarely flooded Fogerty Park Master Plan 18

Fogerty Park Master Plan 19

Program Active Elements: The proposed programmatic elements that could be incorporated into the master plan for Fogerty Park include several recreational or active elements. These elements vary in activity level from low to high. The active program elements proposed during public meetings and design concepts include: tennis courts, playgrounds, walking paths, multi-use courts, basketball courts, disc golf course, fitness stations, and off-leash dog area. Fogerty Park Master Plan 20

Program Environmental Elements: Several of the program elements proposed during public meetings and in the design concepts included an environmental benefit for the park. These elements range from low-impact educational features to major changes in the park landscape. The environmental program elements proposed during master plan process include: community garden plots, a native plant palette, educational signage, permeable pavement, and an outdoor classroom. Fogerty Park Master Plan 21

Program Infrastructural Elements: Perhaps the most critical group of program elements proposed during the master plan process are the potential infrastructural improvements to Fogerty Park. These infrastructural program elements include: high-efficiency lighting, open pavilion structures, new park signage, separate restrooms, a shade structure, and new site furnishings. Site furnishings include benches, trash receptacles, drinking fountains, and dog waste bag stations. Fogerty Park Master Plan 22

Program Community Feedback: Public input played a vital role in shaping the master plan concepts and final design for Fogerty Park. This valuable process of review, feedback, and refinement served as the backbone for a process that aimed to meet the needs of all citizens within the park service area (1/2 mile radius). Two public meetings were held to present site analysis and design concepts to the public. Programmatic elements were presented at the first public meeting on April 21, 2015. Citizens were asked to prioritize potential park improvements by placing stickers next to conceptual images of these elements. Additional Park Commission and City Council meetings were held to gain additional guidance and feedback for the master plan process. A public engagement survey was produced and distributed to citizens as well. Surveys were collected by the Public Works and Parks Department, and results were quantified by the design team. The following pages include the public engagement survey, as well as the compiled results from surveys received. Fogerty Park Master Plan 23

Master Plan Circulation & Connections Vehicular Circulation: Both vehicular and pedestrian circulation will be improved at Fogerty Park. A new expanded parking lot with up to 52 spaces is proposed with a 2nd entrance along 82nd Blvd. Pedestrian Circulation: Walking trails will be improved, with multiple new connections throughout the park. A new east-west path just north of the elementary school will provide a valuable connection to park users. Additional trail connectors divide the existing circulation loop into smaller loops, providing options for walkers and runners. 82nd Blvd. Laughlin Ave. Barbara C. Jordan Elementary N.T.S. Vehicular Pedestrian Fogerty Park Master Plan 32

Master Plan Program Active: Several active elements are included in the final master plan for Fogerty Park. These include maintaining the existing soccer field, baseball diamond, and walking paths. Additional active features include the new path connections, multi-use courts, splash pad, and upgraded playground area. Environmental: Most of the existing trees at the park will be maintained. Additional native trees will supplement the mature canopy throughout the site and along the 82nd Blvd. streetscape. A native plant area that features prairie grass and wildflower species will create a new park experience for Fogerty Park. Infrastructural: The infrastructure at Fogerty Park will be greatly improved and updated as part of this master plan. A new expanded parking area and 2 new pavilions are the major improvements, with new hardscapes, site furnishings, baseball diamond improvements and lighting updated as well.
