MINUTES <br />Parks & Recreation Commission <br />July 7, 2005 <br />Gray felt that payment of the park charge was not a hardship when you consider the value of the <br />land and the building once constructed. Boss felt that the park charge was probably budgeted <br />for already. She felt it couldn't have been a surprise to the Watershed. <br />Gray stated that upon reviewing the ordinance regarding the park charge, he couldn't find <br />anything that described the services that the Watershed will be providing with their new <br />building that could serve to offset their fee responsibility. He felt that waiving the fee would set <br />a precedent for future developers to make similar requests. Mans felt that the Watershed project <br />is actually taking away open space that was designated as park land. He did not agree with <br />waiving the park charge either. <br />Larson recommended accepting money in lieu of land for the park charge relative to the <br />Watershed building being constructed on Noel Drive. <br />Motion seconded by Gray. <br />Motion carried 6 — 0. <br />Page 2 of 3 <br />
