Our purpose in preparing this glan was to analyze our needs and identify facility improvements which will ensure that the Conservatory can continue to fulfill its role in providing recreational service to local and regional residents. Several organizations have followed the preparation of this plan, and have reviewed its contents . Following review meetings with the Como Park Advisory Committee, the Como Zoo Design Committee, the State Historical Society, the Heritage Preservation Commission, and District Planning Councils 6 , 10 , and 12 , the plan was reviewed and approved by the Saint Paul Planning Commission at its February 25 , 1983 meeting. We have prepared the attached City Council Resolution for your consideration and have enclosed a Master Plan Summary and a copy of the Planning Commission Resolutions for your review. We will also deliver copies of the plan to your office. It is our hope that this Resolution can be brought to the City Council in the near future. Its approval will enable us to apply for Metropolitan Parks and Open Space funds to begin the needed improvements. Thank you. Sincerely, , �� Thomas J.

Wirka Housing and Building Code Enforcement Manpower Programs Parks and Recreation Public Health Public Libraries L 281�'�� COMO CONSERVATORY Master Plan Summary The Como Conservatory Master Plan analyzes the need for improvements to this 70 year old facility to ensure tha� it continues to meet the recreational needs of local and regional residents. The plan makes recommendations about what improvements should be made, the timing of these improvements and an estimate of each phase. Citizen Participation The deterioration of the Conservatory prompted the formation of the Como Conservatory Preservation Society in 1971 ; by early 1980, the planning process for the Conservatory was begun and the group was officially designated as the Como Conservatory Planning Advisory Committee. A11. 17 neighborhood planning councils were invited to send representatives to participate in the process. The group met on a bi-weekly basis to produce this plan. Relationship to Parks and Recreation Plan This plan is in conformance with the Parks and Recreation component of the City' s ' Comprehensive Plan which was prepared in 1979; in addition, it is also included in the Capital Improvement Program of the Metro Parks and Open Space Commission. The rehabilitation and improvement of the Como Conservatory is considered essential to preserve this unique and historic resource. Estimated Costs and Financing The rehabilitation and improvement of the Como Conservatory has been divided into four stages: Phase I - Restoration of Public Display Area & Growing House Replacement Phase II - Development of Resource Center Building and Plant Display Area Phase III - Restoration and Replacement o` Growing Areas Phase IV - Development of Grounds, Plaza, Landscaping and Japanese Garden Transition/Service Area The total project cost for all phases (in 1982 dollars) is $4,026,275. Funds will be obtained, in phases, from the Metropolitan Council ' s Parks and Open Space program. The project is eligible for these funds by its designation as a Regional Special Use Facility. Approvals Required Planning Commisssion approval (February 25, 1983) and City Council approval are necessary for submittal of the plan to the Metropolitan Parks and Open Space Commission. This Commission will then review the plan and forward its r�ecommend- ation to the Metropolitan Council for its approval . � . 281G��� . -r • city of saint paul � � � planning commission resolution file number R�_�� � � date February 25, 1983 WHEREAS, Minnesota Statutes require Planning Commission review of praposed capital improvements for compliance with the Comprehensive Plan, and that its findings be reported to the City Council ; and WHEREAS, the St. Paul Planning Commission has reviewed the Como Conservatory Master Plan, which proposes extensive capital improvements for the Como Conservatory, for compliance with the St. Paul Comprehensive Plan; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission� has found the Como Conservatory Master Plan to be consistent with the Parks and Recreation, Land Use, and District 10 elements of the Comprehensive Plan; fJOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the St. Pau1 Planning Commission, that the Como Conservatory Master Plan is consistent -with the Comprehensive Plan; and FURTHER, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission's findings be transmitted to the Mayor and City Council for their consideration. moved by Cochrane seconded by Bryan in favar ,6 a�air�st ° � �� � '�, �-� �_���,_� ..
