BENTONVILLE PARKS & RECREATION TEN YEAR MASTER PLAN Supplement 2: Recommended Improvements
Prepared For: Bentonville Parks & Recreation
RECOMMENDED IMPROVEMENTS
Park by Park OVERVIEW
This master plan outlines anticipated capital costs for both enhancements to existing parks as well as the construction of new park facilities. The cost figures are based upon 2017 dollars and include all necessary expenditures to provide the recommended improvements, however they do not include cost of land acquisition, in-kind services, costs defrayed by partner investment, volunteer efforts, matching funds, or funds potentially raised by non-profit entities. A list of improvements and the cost associated with each are shown for each park. In some cases where an existing park was recently renovated and thus needs little or no capital investment, the figures shown are for general park updates, in other words, costs associated with maintenance, repairs and/or code or safety updates. As an overview, capital expenditures are anticipated to be as follows: Capital plan improvements to the park system, including new parks, range between $50,307,000 to $57,497,000. Trail plan improvements are estimated to be $12,500,000. Anticipated improvements, park by park, are listed below:
