Conceptual Park Designs
Do you have a parcel of property for a future park and need assistance getting started with the conceptual layout?
RRS offers technical services in park planning for any community or agency working on a recreation facility. We can provide information about field and court dimensions, outdoor facility orientation or conceptual layout of the park. We can help you determine what type of facilities can best fit on your site and provide information about resources for further assistance in park planning and development.

What will be the final product?
Please note that the plans produced by RRS are
conceptual only. You may not build from the types of plans we produce. Our assistance is intended to help a community get started with the park planning process by providing a conceptual plan for potential development of the site.
Typical Deliverables:
- One Large color map (24" x 36") of park plan
- One Small (8.5" x 11") color and one small (8.5" x 11") black & white plan
- Report describing the conceptual plan, including justification for facility placement and recommendations for development or further study.

Upon request we may deliver all digital data created with the project (GIS data files) for your future use and continued planning efforts. The number of plans produced and report detail may vary with each project. The final product is determined by each community and is outlined in the proposal for service.
Cost for Conceptual Plan Assistance
The minimum cost to complete a planning project is $200.00. Costs for projects have ranged between $200 and $2,000 depending on project scope, deliverables and complexity of the site design.
