8 - Parks & Recreation 72 RECREATION / AQUATIC CENTER

As recommended in the Parks and Recreation Master Plan, construct a major new Recreation & Aquatic Center, probably in the western part of Iowa City. This project would include the replacement of the two pool bulkheads, deck tile, dive stands, and the renovation of the women's locker room from a shared shower space to two separate shower spaces. This project is to add a boat ramp to access the Iowa River in the northeast corner of Waterworks Park. Improvements include a boat ramp, boat trailer parking, a boat dock, and an access road. Phase 4 of the Riverfront Crossings Park master plan adds a new river access, an amphitheater, a kayak launch, and new river trails. Construction of second restroom/shelter by Nature Play and second bridge to 2nd Street; also includes removing an abandoned trunk sewer line. Addition of an accessible boat access to the Iowa River from the parking lot at the Park Maintenance Shop. This project will extend the Iowa River Trail from Benton St to Highway 6, on the west side of the Iowa River. Future phases of the trail could extend to Stergis Ferry Park and on top of the west side levee to McCollister Blvd. This project would reconfigure ball diamond #4 at Mercer Park to realign the field to a NW orientation. This would include the removal of the existing field, fencing, and spectator areas. Replace playground #1 at Kickers Athletic Complex as it is reaching the end of projected serviceable life. Project also adds ADA compliant paths. Replace playground at North Market Square Park. This includes replacing rubber mat surface with engineered wood fiber. Adjacent elementary school playground has poured in place surfacing. Replace playground at Reno Street Park. Add ADA compliant paths, park furnishings and fence to community garden. Replace the playground at Calder Park. Site constraints keep this as a smaller piece of equipment. Provides for additional parking on the north side of the Ashton House to support larger events at the facility. Implement changes to make the park more resilient to flooding. Follows from the 2015 master plan.
