The plan was developed from community feedback received at two <br /> workshop meetings and a Facebook Page designed specifically for the skate park project. Overall the <br /> design has been well received by potential users of the park. The park utilizes a concrete design with <br /> features highly desired by skaters that focused on"good flow". Also,the park utilizes a design intended <br /> to compliment surrounding features of Orono Park. <br /> One key discussion from the skate park committee is whether or not to shift the park towards the North <br /> into the power line corridor. The benefit of this relocation is to provide more flexibility for trail <br /> development from the future trail which will be installed on the Hwy 10 bridge over Orono Lake. The <br /> disadvantage of this approach is the cost which is estimated at$45,000—$50,000. <br /> The total construction cost estimate for the park is $370,187. <br /> Financial Impact <br /> Construction cost: $370,187 <br /> Additional cost to relocate park to the north: $45,000—$50,000 <br /> 1 / ■ E 1 E 1 1 1 <br /> NAME <br />
