FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES ASSOCIATED WITH THE PUEBLO NATURAL RESOURCES AND ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION COUNCIL “PLUG IN TO NATURE” PROJECT SUMMARY: Attached is a Resolution for City Council consideration approving a Professional Services Agreement with Design Concepts, CLA, Inc. for the Pueblo Natural Resources and Environmental Education Council “Plug in to Nature” Project. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: City Council approved an Ordinance in July, 2012, establishing the Pueblo Natural Resources and Environmental Education Council Plug in to Nature Project. Ordinance 8615 also budgeted and appropriated funds for the Project and approved the grant contract from the Stated Board of the Great Outdoors Colorado Trust Fund. BACKGROUND: The Pueblo Natural Resource Environmental Education Council “Plug in to Nature” will complete an analysis of the 18 square mile low-moderate income census blocks within the City of Pueblo to determine the current levels of connectedness that youth and families have to the outdoors and nature. The goal of the Project is to reveal gaps and barriers that may prevent such connections and identify opportunities on which to build in order to link more people within the Project area to nature. This study will include surveys, community meetings, and focus group interviews as part of the study assessment and analysis. A consultant team will complete an inventory and assess current access to outdoor programs and facilities, analyze gaps in both access to the outdoors and outdoor programming, and formulate strategies to overcome cultural barriers resulting in better connections between youth, families, and nature. An advisory committee has been organized utilizing Project participants previously involved in the Pueblo Natural Resource Environmental Education Plan that was completed in 1997. The Project partners include the Pueblo City-County Health Department, Pueblo Zoological Society, Bessemer Neighborhood and Eastside Neighborhood Associations, Environmental Center, City Parks and Recreation Department, Nature and Raptor Center of Pueblo, and Colorado Parks and Wildlife. A professional facilitator will be utilized to engage youth to find solutions to connect with the outdoors. The result of the study will be to develop strategies based on the residents’ satisfaction, accessibility, and suggested improvements needed to improve connections with the outdoors and nature. The plan will establish measurement tools to evaluate the performance of the Project implementation over time. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: Ordinance 8615, approved July 22, 2013, budgeted and appropriated $51,000 in funds for said Project and transferred $6,000, required as the local match, from City Council Contingency Funds to the PNREEC Plug-in to Nature Project. The grant contract requires $9,000 of in-kind services to be provided by the project partners to assist with the completion of the Project. The breakdown of in-kind expenses is as follows: EntityTask In-Kind Value Pueblo County GIS Mapping $3,010.00 Pueblo City-County Health Department Volunteers $ 900.00 Nature & Raptor Center Volunteers $ 900.00 Pueblo Zoo Volunteers $ 900.00 Mountain Park Environmental Center Volunteers $ 900.00 City of Pueblo Printing $ 390.00 Pueblo City-County Health Dept Meeting Room $2,000.00 In-Kind Total $9,000.00 BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not Applicable.
