3 What is a Design Charrette? A design charrette is an intensive planning session where stakeholders, designers, and others collaborate on a vision for development. It provides a forum for ideas and offers the unique advantage of giving immediate feedback to the designers. More importantly, it allows everyone who participates to be a mutual author of the plan. Participants are led through the process by a facilitator and support staff. Participants work in groups to develop design ideas and a conceptual design that will be presented to everyone at the completion of the charrette. All design ideas presented can provide a basis for further design development. The Northeast Swale Master Plan The Northeast Swale is an important and unique landscape feature formed by an ancient river channel. Located north of Silverspring and Evergreen neighbourhoods, it is the largest piece of unbroken city land with native prairie, riparian forest, and wetlands. The site supports a variety of habitat types, cultural features, and high biodiversity. Meewasin intends to conserve the ecology of the area and support opportunities for nature appreciation and education. In , Meewasin is developing a Master Plan for the Northeast Swale. This work includes planning and designing the physical space, pathways, and amenities within the Northeast Swale to support resource management, education, and passive recreation uses. This project will produce a comprehensive site plan for the area of the Northeast Swale within City of Saskatoon limits. The Northeast Swale Master Plan Design Charrette is intended to initiate the design process. It will bring together design professionals and stakeholders for a one day, intensive design exercise that will produce a number of design options, and create discussion about and excitement for the project. Project Site and Scope The scope of the Northeast Swale Master Plan is limited to the area of the Northeast Swale with Saskatoon city limits, delineated on the map below. However, considerations for connectivity to adjacent land uses will be addressed in the final Master Plan and were discussed as part of the design charrette. 2

5 Northeast Swale Design Charrette Overview Meewasin hosted the Northeast Swale Master Plan Design Charrette on April 29 th, 2014 at the Atrium building in Innovation Place in Saskatoon. In total, 43 people, organized into 6 teams took part in the design charrette. Participants Participants included representatives from: Meewasin staff and advisory committee members City of Saskatoon and University of Saskatchewan staff Other professionals and topic area specialists Swale Watchers and other stakeholders High school and university students Each team was made up of individuals with knowledge and experience in the following area: Landscape Architecture Urban Planning Education & Interpretation Civil Engineering Environmental Conservation Science Archaeology or Cultural Heritage The Program The charrette kicked-off with a bus tour to visit the Northeast Swale site. Luc Delanoy, Conservation Officer at Meewasin, provided a narrative of site features, history, and management for participants. Afterwards, a brief overview of the Northeast Swale Master Plan project and the goals of the design charrette were provided. Participants were then walked through relevant background information. Participants were seated in groups of 7 or 8 at work tables. The remainder of the morning and much of the afternoon was dedicated to collaborative design work done in teams. The final 1.5 hours was dedicated to presentations. Each team presented their conceptual plan drawing and described the primary elements, challenges, and recommendations of their design. 4
6 Materials Each team had access to a Reference Information Package outlining relevant guidance and limitations based on previous research and planning for the site. (Appendix A) The package included: Summary of significant natural and heritage site features; Overview of planning already defined for the site, including appropriate and prohibited activities, management zones, and the Greenway design; Design recommendation based on The Northeast Swale Resource Management Plan (2013) and The Northeast Swale Development Guidelines (Stantec 2012); Maps of the swale, management zones, and areas of interest; A schematic of the Greenway and Parkway crossing concepts; and Directions and questions specific to the design charrette activity. Each team was also provided a sheet with following materials to support design work: A base-map of the site with key features; o Existing trail and the proposed Greenway o Recreation, stormwater, and ecological core zones o Location of heritage artifacts o Surrounding neighbourhoods o Transportation and utility crossing points o Contour elevations Tracing paper and masking tape; Coloured markers, pens, and pencils; and Post-it notes and paper pads. The Product Each was tasked with developing a Conceptual Site Plan containing the following: Pedestrian circulation including trail and greenway network Access management and fencing considerations for the entire site Amenities and nodes including site furniture, way-finding, and signage Facilities to support recreation, programming, resource management, and interpretation Connections and interface with adjacent lands, natural areas, and existing trail networks Participants were also asked to brainstorm potential names for branding the site. 5
7 Conceptual Site Plans Each of the 6 charrette team produced a Conceptual Site Plan that was presented at the end of the day. This following section includes these drawings and summarizes the key featured and design rationale for each. Team Crowfoot Violet The design intent was to balance access and conservation by focusing on pedestrian circulation delineating spaces Design elements included: Strategic use of pathway and fencing for access control and management Restrictive fencing into ecological core permitting pedestrians but not ATV/snowmobiles A primary trail in the ecological core with temporary secondary trails Gated access to service area west of Lowe Road The greenway passes through the recreation zone (away from the road) Access to picnic facilities by a road and loop at current Agra road location Regional connectivity Connectivity node along the length of both edges adjacent to neighborhoods Each node would be an entrance point with informational and regulatory signage Trail north to Crocus Prairie along old Central Avenue alignment Eventual connection to Small Swale along new Central Avenue alignment Connection to Meewasin trail and node at Peturrson s Ravine Interpretative nodes in the ecological core, recreation, and stormwater zone Supports self guided tours with signage and pamphlets Facility to include space for classroom and interpretation program use A bird-watching node and boardwalk on the wetland near Lowe road A small interpretive facility with bathrooms located in stormwater area A Moose Woods -Batoche Trail node on the Greenway portion in the recreational zone Special seasonal consideration Winter activities supported include: skiing, snowshoeing, and cleared pathways Facility to be the center point of trails, serve as a warm up facility Temporary trails in ecological core to consider nesting times of birds 6
8 7
9 Team Horned Grebe The purpose was to define areas for specific uses to best integrate human uses without impacting ecologically sensitive areas Design elements included: Managing human uses throughout the swale with a tiered trail system Greenway trails that surround the exterior of the swale area Secondary trail in the recreation zone that permits cycling, and dogs on leash Tertiary trails limited to the ecological core where paths are mowed Supporting resource management needs in the ecological core Access road and gate for loading and unloading grazing animals off of Lowe Rd. Fencing to limit human-animal conflicts and animals entering wetlands Interpretative features in the ecological core, recreation and storm water zone A Moose Woods-Batoche Trail to become an interpretive trail A small interpretive facility with bathrooms located in stormwater area Trails to leading to node to interpret Marl bog, lime kilns, and pinned rock Connectivity with the surrounding neighborhood with nodes at entrance points Nodes to include interpretive signage, benches, and garbage cans Education on importance of ecology and area communicated at entrance Signage includes way-finding and maps at each entrance Supporting recreational opportunities in the recreation zone Picnic area with BBQ and small playground that relates to theme Winter skating on the stormwater pond, interpretive center as shelter Groomed cross-country ski trails for the winter season 8

19 Summary of Results While each team created a unique design with a unique focus, many elements where common amongst the different designs. The following points highlight the most common and reoccurring design elements that resulted from the charrette: Greenway Greenway at edges of ecological core, although potentially through the recreational zone Greenway is paved for cycling and pedestrians and may include separate bike pathways Internal trail system Mowed trails in the ecological core which are temporary and flexible Crusher dust trails in the recreation and stormwater zones support interpretation Nodes created for Moose-Woods Batoche Trail, the lime kilns, and Pinned Rock Entry nodes for trails with regulatory and educational signage Interpretive facility Accessible by school with safe drop-off location Provides shelter for classroom activities and storage supplies Publicly accessible warm-up shelter in winter with bathrooms Is a centre point for recreational trail system Wildlife viewing platforms Located adjacent to Lowe road or the Parkway roads May consist of boardwalk extending onto wetlands Supported with interpretative signage Fencing Ecological core surrounded with wildlife friendly fencing Restricts access for vehicles (bikes, ATV, snowmobiles) Permits access for pedestrian at multiple locations with v-style gates Access points are located to prevent high traffic in most sensitive areas Additional temporary fencing may be used to manage cattle 18
20 Recreation opportunities Both self guided and guided tours are supported Picnic sites in the stormwater zone off of Agra Snow shoeing, x-country ski and walking trails in the winter Regional Connectivity The Northeast Swale maintains connectivity to the Small Swale, Crocus Prairie, Peggy McKercher, the River Valley, and the Greater Swale Use of linear parks to enable people and wildlife to easily travel between the Northeast Swale, nearby natural areas, and surrounding neighbourhoods 19
21 Naming the Northeast Swale A communications and branding strategy will be developed together with the Northeast Swale Master Plan. As part of this strategy Meewasin will be looking to establish a proper name for the site. Charrette participants were asked to provide their suggestions and responses received are listed below: Wild lands of Saskatoon Rowe Ecological Area Silvergreen Park Nature Ridge Crosby Crossing Velonas Valley Northeast Swale Trail Park Northeast Swale Ranch Cree names: Neechewan Natural Area (Happy Gathering Place) Peciciwan (river source) Ahkastin (wet) Kayasi (old) Nipiy (water) 20

33 The GREENWAY The Swale Ecological Buffer Trail Zone Transition Zone Adjacent Land Use (residential, roadway, commercial, etc.) The Swale should be separated from the Greenway by a page wire fence and/or delineated using signage. The Swale will be managed in accordance with the NE Swale Resource Management Plan It is important that the Swale boundary be recognizable by the public. The Ecological Buffer Zone: Use species native to the Swale Some native areas currently exist, while others may need seeding with native species and/or allowing natural regeneration to accomplish the task. The long-term goal is to have this zone as native as possible. Vegetation management should be complementary with the Swale management. A 15 m minimum width is recommended, although this should be widened to 20m if the slope toward the Swale is 5% or greater. Meandering from the Trail Zone into the Buffer is acceptable on flat slopes (<5%) and where natural vegetation is well established. 3-4 m wide, pedestrian and cycling pathway. Asphalt or crusher dust Meanders into adjacent zones are acceptable (see comment in Ecological Buffer) The Transition Zone: 5 m minimum width adjacent to residential lots or if used for stormwater management. If used for stormwater management the width can be greater 3 m minimum width adjacent to roads & other land uses. Fencing should be installed along residential back lot lines. Seed with native species that can be mowed. Use for stormwater management: grassy swale, bioswales, rain gardens, linear retention ponds The City should consider developing an information package for neighbourhood residents outlining the importance of the Swale. Suggestions for storm water management (e.g., rain barrels) and the need for back yard fencing and weed management could be addressed.
