Where it would be, and hopefully we'd be done with phase one before the start of the medieval fair.

Okay.

That's our plans.

Anne Marie Yecker.

She uh the person I would say is the in charge of Mabel Fair.

Um, there's a lot of people, but she's the main person.

She was on the Reese Park committee.

Um I think got it as close to arranged in the best way that would uh benefit them.

And their big thing was like there being outlets built in the park and stuff like that that could plug into.

But yeah, they were definitely involved in shaping this map.

Councilmember according to that schedule, April is when the fair happens.

Would be interesting, they celebrating it and kind of notifying people on the way into medieval fair.

Yes.

And two, we would um uh as to show you here in a second, too.

Hopefully be done with a a restroom project at that point and uh a few new shelters.

Uh the full breakdown is the schedule, start demo demolition of the Kid Space.

Uh uh let the OU School of Architecture start in November and then um 2027 is when we actually start site uh site work.

Uh uh, we need to hire it's a pretty big space.

We have to hire a surveyor.

Uh we're working with a local architect to make sure that everything properly drains is a big investment.

We don't want flooding on the site.

There uh Bruce Park does tend to have areas that do gather a lot of water when it rains hard.

Uh uh plan on in March to uh simulate exactly what we did in 1999 uh when we built the original Kid Space by having a community build over a full week.

Work with uh the schools in in Norman and of course uh all of our our residents to help us uh erect the playground as quick as possible.

Hopefully in April, get everything done with the year one projects that include uh sidewalks, lighting, site furnishings, uh so forth and so on, along with the playground in September.

Uh this time next year we'll start uh round two, which is broke off of basically $300,000 a year.

Uh year one will be the main playground building.

Next year would be the top slot uh and um public art, and then hopefully by the end of the next year, we will be done and complete with the project.

So we do not come plan on doing a community build with the the tot lot.

We'll we're planning on paying a uh contractor to come in there and install that so it would be done in a a quicker and a less stressful um way for for the parks department.

Uh as we start talking about this, I want to highlight uh that each year is 299,000 uh from um um T set uh for a total of 519,000.

If uh the city uh minimally minimum portion that we need to to supply it is 20%, which would be 119, but what we're asking for today is uh 400,000 so that we make sure that we can do this project correct um to an up nicest standard.

Uh like I said, it is the most important playground uh in uh the Norman's uh parks system.

Uh it'd be about a million dollar uh total total investment for everything.

Um once again, six hundred thousand dollars cover from T Set, so that'd be a cost uh to us for about four hundred thousand dollars.

All this would be funded through Norma Ford.

Wanna want to um make it very obvious that the grant will also be funded through Norman Ford, and then as we get payback from T set, that would be placed back into the Norm Ford fund.

Uh these are the how the projects would look like the the things that we'll be accomplishing um play area for the five to twelve year olds uh will be done year one fencing around that playground along with sidewalks signage, uh the art wall.

I'll show you in the next picture.

It's a hand-drawn uh a site plan for it.

Uh lighting will be going um all said and done.

We're trying to do everything with uh with solar lighting on this project.

Year two would be the totl lot to five uh two to five-year-olds, uh public art fence, finishing out a little bit of sidewalk and signage for uh the project.

So miscellaneous projects will be going on simultaneously, not necessarily caught up in the cost of this million dollars.

Uh we do have a large shelter uh which is about $80,000 all in from um typically the cost of that.

We've already done a presentation on that would be in the $400,000 range.

Uh that would be done for um from the school of uh architecture.

Uh small shelters, so uh uh we'll show you in the next picture.

We're playing three small shelters.

We're hopefully gonna be able to recycle the wood.

Everybody's asking how we're gonna integrate the old old uh kids based into the new, and these are just a couple ideas we've come up in house.

So take some of the old wood from Kidspace and use it to make um three small shelters around uh the project.

Uh also we have a restroom building, which was uh it was funded through uh FYE 2025.

We almost built that uh about a year ago.

It came in way, way over budget.

So we hit the pause button trying to let everything catch up to this, and we're gonna try to attempt um a new concept again, put that out to rebuild, uh rebid, and then hopefully build and get done by April all simultaneously with this project.

Uh this is a little hand drawn by our our park development office.

Uh at the project um uh calendar again right next to this.

Uh uh just kind of shows you the breakdown of everything.

So walk up here since the mouse is not working.
