Outdoor Park and Recreation PIanPrepared for Village of Trempealeau

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Village of Trempealeau has developed a five-year outdoor recreation plan to ensure that

Village residents have adequate facilities available to them to satisfy their recreational needs.

SEH assisted in the development of this plan.

ln addition to the 1,529 residents of the Village, tourists and seasonal residents enjoy the

recreational opportunities that exist in and around the Village which include Perrot State Park.

These out of town visitors put significant pressure on the park and recreation facilities in the

Village.

Major items that were identified as desired by the Village are:

1. Constructing a walking trail that provides a linkage from River Road Estates to the Village

(near the Library), as well as pedestrian improvements from the mobile home park to the

downtown.

2. Constructing pool improvements

3. Developing a festival ground offering amenities for camping, skating and hosting large

events.

4. lmproved signage for Bicycle and Pedestrian lmprovements.

5. lmproving Bicycle and Pedestrian lmprovements to regional assets, including Perrot

State Park.

2.0 PLANNING PROCESS

The planning process involved meetings with elected and appointed community officials.

These persons are closely connected to the community, and have discussed future needs

with local organizations and park users. Meetings of municipal bodies are open to the public

and noticed in accordance with State law.

Additional information was obtained from the Village's Comprehensive Plan, completed in

2002. An in-depth, community-wide survey was completed as part of that process.

Respondents were asked what types of park and recreation system improvements should be

made in the future. The results are graphically shown below, with those receiving the largest

number of responses having larger text.

Located on the east side of the Village, near Perrot State Park, is the Little BluffArchaeological Site. Historical artifacts from over 1,000 years old have been found in thisarea.

Historic Downtown

Trempealeau's downtown is on the national historic register. This is a two-block area

centered along Main Street and contains about 1.6 acres.

The Wisconsin State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP) 2011-2016 divides

the state into six regions and identifies regional needs. Statewide goals include promoting

outdoor recreation as healthy living, coordination land uses around outdoor recreation

facilities and uses, and addressing funding challenges. The Village currently has fishing

opportunities and swimming opportunities, and is looking to expand hiking and biking

facilities.

3.1 DEFINITION OF PLANNING AREA

The Village of Trempealeau Parks Planning Area consists of the Village of Trempealeau, as

well as a connection to the Penot State Park facilities. Perrot State Park is located just

outside of the village boundary, but offers significant resources which Village residents take

advantage of, and have easy access to.

3.2 GEOLOGY

The southwestern portion of Wisconsin is considered the coulee region, or driftless region.

Much of this area was not impacted by the glaciers that covered much of the state. Glacial

outwash is found along the Mississippi River and some of its tributaries, including the Black,

Buffalo and Trempealeau Rivers. The Village of Trempealeau is located along the Mississippi

River on terrace remaining from glacial outwash.

ln the western part of the Village there is a portion of a Mississippi River bluff that is

approximately 460 feet above the river. This bluff consists of Prairie du Chien dolomite cap

rock that overlays a series of Cambrian sandstones.

3.3 TOPOGRAPHY

The Village has significant elevation changes. From near the river, north to the Old Catholic

Cemetery, there is an elevation change of approximately 100 feet. As one heads west into

Perrot State Park, the elevation rises sharply another 300 feet in Perrot State Park. This

topography is part of the glacial outwash geology that makes up Trempealeau's character.

4.10.4 Trempealeau National Wildlife Refuge

This facility is located to the northwest of the Village along the Mississippi River. This was

created in 1936 and consists of over 6,200 acres. The primary goal was to be a refuge and

breeding ground for migratory birds and other wildlife.

4.10.5 UpperMississippi NationalWildlife Refuge

This area is located along four states following the Mississippi River. This facility was

established in 1924 as a refuge for fish, wildlife and plants, and a breeding place for

migratory birds. The refuge covers approximately 240,000 acres, and lies adjacent to the

5.0 ANALYSIS OF NEEDS AND PREFERENCES BY PARK

This section addresses the preferences and needs of the recreation facilities in the Village.

These needs were identified by community members based on observations and

communication with Village residents and park users.

The Village has several goals for many of their park facilities. The Village has discussed is

considering an option to link their park and recreation areas via a non-motorized trail system,

particularly the River Road Estate to the Village (Library Area).

ln addition, many other goals of the Village are to improve existing equipment, and to ensure

that there are adequate and safe facilities to entertain children of all ages.

The section below details the needs at the various facilities.

Central Park

This facility receives most of its use during the summer months. Future activities at this

facili$ include general maintenance of the playground equipment and horseshoe pits. The

Village is fortunate to have a good partner in the Trempealeau Lion's Club to assist with the

playground equipment maintenance.

Swimming Pool Park

The Village has several future improvements they would like to see made to this facility in the

coming years. This facility is utilized heavily in the summer months for swimming programs.

lmproving handicapped accessibility to the pool is a primary concern. ln addition, the Village

would like to add fencing to make the area safer to put parents' minds at ease, and to make

the play area more defined. ln addition, improved playground equipment is desired, as are

more trees. This park facility is relatively open and unprotected from the sun in the summer.

This will make this facility more attractive and user friendly for parents and non-swimmers.

Duck Pond Park

This facility is utilized by nature-lovers, and is a great location due to the relatively wet

characteristics of the land. This is left in a primarily undeveloped state, and is not suitable for

development; therefore, this facility will continue to be utilized into the future as wildlife habitat

and a viewing area.

Ball Park

This facility is heavily used during the summer months for the youth baseball leagues. At thistime, future projects at this site include ongoing maintenance. The fields are in good conditionwith sprinklers, and should be maintained.

This facility is utilized heavily during the spring, summer and fall months. Ongoing

maintenance should be completed to ensure facilities remain in good repair.

6.0 FUTURE PROJECTS BY PARK

This section addresses the general needs of the Village's park facilities, and is based on the

information obtained from the Village.

The Village's overall goal for the future, in addition to annual maintenance and the projects

identified below, is to create a community-wide, comprehensive recreation system thatprovides activities and amenities that people of all ages will use and enjoy. This is an ongoingchallenge and goal, which the Village is commifted to.

The Village is fortunate to be located along the Mississippi and Trempealeau Rivers, and

along First Lake. As such, there are many outdoor nature-based activities that the Village has

to offer their residents and tourists. Many visitors come to enjoy the swimming, fishing andboating opportunities that the area water bodies have to offer.

Currently, the Village's recreational opportunities are well defined. However, they lack aconnectedness. To promote these facilities and take advantage of the resources the Villagehas available, a trail system that connects all of these facilities together is a long-term goal.

The Village also strives to improve their existing facilities to include activities that will satisfy a

wide range of ages, including fishing, swimming, playgrounds, volleyball, and camping.


TREMV 126912Page 11

However, the Village also recognizes a large need at the pool to increase handicap

accessibility. Adding and improving walking and biking routes to existing facilities will

increase the opportunities available to residents and visitors, and will hopefully get people out

of their vehicles exercising and enjoying the natural beauty of the area.

The Village also has a strong desire to consider and evaluate acquiring additional land on the

north side of the Village to potentially hold a large event or festival, offer additional camping

facilities, and make available in the winter for skating. This would also serve residents on the

north side of the Village befter, as most of the Village's park and recreation facilities are

located to the south, along or near the surface water.

6.7 OtherOpportunities

The Village has identified several activities that take place along the river area. These include

train watching and bird watching. Ensuring residents and tourists have a safe and viable

place to partake in these activities is important both from an available amenity aspect, as well

as from a safety standpoint.
