A narrow border of native shrubs or plants around the perimeter of the site to serve as a semi-permeable visual and movement barrier. Signage and interpretive exhibits that describe the burrowing owl, its habitat and other natural community members. Observation areas at the path junction on the west edge of the site and near the city water well site. Experimental burrowing owl perches at the nest sites to enhance habitat values and viewing of birds by park visitors. Motor vehicle parking areas developed on or near the site.
Bicycle parking is proposed for the two observation areas.
Educational programs developed and implemented by the City in conjunction with the Explorit Science Center and school district, would include a public education program to reduce impacts of domestic animals on the burrowing owls at the site. The proposed park would require maintenance from the Parks and Community Services and Public Works Departments. The burrowing owls nests would be monitored by experts at regular intervals. Adaptive management techniques for the grassland and other vegetation would be implemented at appropriate scales. Mowing would be limited to several times each growing season, after temporarily marking owl nests and satellite burrows.
