Commissioners present included: Chairman Marc McMullen, Stuart Kinkade (8:16), Larry Strootman, Gretchen Sabel, Jeff Kieffer, and Tom Anderson. APPROVAL OF MINUTES Ms. Sabel asked for a change in the 1-7-88 meeting minutes, first page, Northwoods Tennis Court issue. The second paragraph there should read: '~ihen reworking the project, Mr. Davidson asked that there be a different soil boring opinion obtained from another firm to compare with what was done to date. The cost of this is not to exceed $1,000. Estimated total cost of the tennis court would be from $10,000-$20,000." A second correction to the minutes was found on page 3, third com- plete paragraph, first sentence. It should read: "Chairman McMullen reviewed what he considered the original agreement to be, stating that the developers should fulfill the requirements of park dedication with the park land and the $11,000." Motion was made by Co~~issioner Sabel, seconded by Commissioner Anderson, to approve the 1-7-88 meeting minutes with the changes stated. RESIDENT FORUM None. HILLS OF BUlJKER LAKE PARK PLAN The Commission concurred that this item be tabled to a future meeting when staff can be present for discussion. OLD COLOW! ESTATES - Sketch Plan Al Hamel, representing the developers of Old Colony Estates, pre- sented their proposed sketch plan for the project. It was pointed out that the I~JSA line runs through the center of their property, with the CJ ,~ u Park and Recreation Heeting :1inutes January 21, 1988 Page 2 land east of the line not to be developed until the year 2000. The first phase of the project will be in the far west portion of the property. It was pointed out that the Park Development Plan shows a trail system along Coon Creek. Mr. Hamel reported that staff has suggested that the property along the creek be reserved for the public park system with a n1L'Tlber of walkways provided to the area. This would amount to approx- imately 19 acres of land. (Co~'Tlissioner Kinkade arrived at 8:16 p.m.) Mr. Hamel questioned that should the Park Board agree with dedicat- ing the land along the creek, would the developers get credit against any park dedication fee requirement? The Commission concurred that the developers could get partial credit, suggesting that something could be considered similar to that of the Bunker Hills property to the south. Commissioner Sabel discussed the possibility of taking additional space for a playground within the property, suggesting block 5, lots 8 and 9. 11r. Hamel felt there would be no real problem with that. Mr. Hamel confirmed that cash in lieu of land would be paid for the phase platted. The Commission concurred that taking the area along the creek for park purposes would be consistent with the Hills of Bunker Park. Chairman McMullen agreed that the city will want at least one, if not two, tot parks within the development. Mr. Hamel agreed to make the proposed changes on the sketch plan, including the outlot along the creek and tot lot suggestions, and bring it back for further consideration. He agreed that credit against park dedication, similar to what was done for Bunker Hills, would be fair. Upon discussion of proposed park requirements, }~. Kinkade sug- gested that the ordinance be changed to require grading and seeding above and beyond the 10 per cent of land due. PARK EQUIPMENT Chairman McMullen directed that this item be rescheduled for discussion at the next meeting when staff can be present with catalogs and price lists available for the new-style equipment. REPORT FROM PUBLIC WORKS None.
