Andover city Complex Discussion, Continued The Park and Recreation Commission is requested to discuss the Andover City Hall Park Complex with the Andover Athletic Association. Enclosed with this item is the Commissions recommendation that will be presented to the City Council on October 20, 1992. "J CITY OF ANDOVER REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION October 20. 1992 DATE ITEM NO. City Hall Park Complex Discussion ~ " APPROV~ED/ ~R AGE(j u\\. BL~ ' J " AGENDA SECTION NO. Staff, Committee, Comm. ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT Engineering BY: Todd J. Haas The City Council is' requested to approve the location of the City Hall Park Complex as recommended by the Park and Recreation Commission at their meeting of October 1, 1992. The expansion of the City Hall Park Complex is recommended to be the parcel of land the City is acquiring from Walter Laptuda located in the SW 1/4 of SE 1/4 of Section 22-32-24. The Park and Recreation Commission has recommended this location for the following reasons: 1. As the area in northern Anoka County continues to develop traffic volumes will continue to increase therefore access to the site from Hanson Boulevard may become somewhat difficult. , \ o 2. The Commission feared that it would be a timely process to acquire the property to the north because several different landowners are involved. 3. There may be some indication that the School District may be willing to help in some way since the complex would be adjacent to the Andover Elementary School. 4. The school parking lot would be available for overflow pa'rking. S. Access to the complex from Crosstown Boulevard is much more desirable because traffic volumes would likely be lower than Hanson Boulevard. 6. In terms of finances and timing, it appears to be advantageous to use the land the City is currently purchasing rather than attempting to sell it and to purchase other properties. CONTINUED COUNCIL ACTION MOTION BY " TO SECOND BY " / ~ '\ ,...J o 7. The City's Comprehensive Plan calls for the property to be developed for park purposes. 8. The existing City Hall Park Complex is desirable because of its quiet nature, especially with the picnic facilities providing a buffer for future development. 9. Very little pedestrian, traffic is anticipated between the existing and proposed facilities, so the issue of crossing County Road 18 is not a large factor. Options Available for the City Council to Consider 1. Approve the location as recommended by the Commission. 2. Table this item and direct staff to further investigate the possibility of purchasing property to the north of the City Hall Park Complex. 3. Do nothing. If option 1 is selected, the City should decide on either City staff or a consultant prepare a grading drainage and erosion control plan. After the plan has been prepared a public hearing should be held to allow residents of Andover and ~djacent property owners to review the plan. Note: The Andover Athletic Association is considering discussing with the U.s. Army Corps of Engineers about having the park complex graded by their office. () '\ '--) u i ....--. L ')' I : .'. " .
