Putting It All Together Alferrica Trainer BSHS/452 Program Design and Proposal Sandi Miller April 21, 2013

A Childhood to Remember Memorial Splash Park has gone through the early planning stages. It is now time to take what the committee has composed on paper, and turn it into a reality. The planning stages has taken a total of three months to accurately address timing, sitting/sizing, cost, potential funding, and community research for the park. Once those issues were calculated and discussed, then the additional issues of which park elements will be used, security, and maintenance of the splash park was addressed. The proposal of Memorial Splash Park has been presented to the board, as well as all research in regards to cost, sitting, sizing, funding options, equipment/labor needed, security, maintenance, and community surveys. The proposal was voted 6 to 1 in favor of construction of Memorial Splash Park. I, and the committee, have to decide to break ground September 4th, 2012 and complete construction exactly four months from the date. A brief, but detailed, account will be given as to the steps taken over the four months to get the park up and running.
Planned Cost of Construction Before construction could begin, total cost had to be calculated for Memorial Splash Park. Once every aspect of the planning stage was researched and gathered, C. Faye (assigned committee member to calculating cost) used this equation to the overall cost of project = Cost of playground equipment + Cost of installation + Cost of surfacing + Cost of design fees, grading, landscaping, and other expenses =

    The developers spent $100 million on the land, $100 million on the recreation facilities, & $100 million on streets, parks, utilities, lots, & greenways. Based on these expenditures, I first allocated half of the $33 million purchase price ($16.5 million) to the recreation complex under the assumption that the $100 million recreation expenditures plus ½ of the $100 million land expenditures were related to the recreation complex. Next, I allocated $10,000 to each of the 500 finished lots ($5 million total), since that was the stated cost to complete each unfinished lot. This left $11.5 million of the $33 million purchase price to still be allocated ($33 - $16.5 - $5). I divided the remaining $11.5 million by the total number of lots to be sold (25,000, including finished & unfinished) to get a cost per lot of $460. I multiplied this amount by the number of lots that were sold each year, including to the finished lots that were sold in 1992. This allocation method resulted in a Net Present Value for the project, at 12%, of $124,290,018.…

The Penske Corp and Chevrolet funded the building of the race course and some restorations to ready the park for the races. It is apparent that the Adopt-a-Park program has already been initiated around the city and on the island in the past, this validating the possibility of success if the proposed idea of soliciting commercial and private entities to invest in the carrying out of a large scale rehabbing plan for Belle Isle Park. Mayor Bing has already been encouraging residents, block clubs, community organizations and companies to consider adopting a park in a fully developed plan on the city’s government website, where he has posted a city of service plan containing several ‘call to action initiatives’ in which he encourages Detroit citizens to volunteer their time, skills and services in order to assist in the transformation of the city into a city with a renewed sense of…

    The Louisiana Purchase is arguably the greatest real estate deal in history. It more than doubled the size of the United States. We gained approximately 530 million acres of land for 15 million dollars; about four cents an acre. Before the purchase, the French had control over the land west of the Mississippi River. Therefore, by gaining this land, America also gained control of the Mississippi River and correspondingly, access to the Gulf of Mexico and the port of New Orleans. Because of The Louisiana Purchase, Americans had the right to trade profitable products at the port of New Orleans and the country became more independent. Also, the purchase provided America with the opportunity for westward expansion, which would result in the formation of new states.…
