MINUTES PARK COMMISSION MARCH 15, 1990 HANDICAPPED ACCESSABLE PARK STREET TAX FORFEIT PROPERTIES TURNQUIST PROPERTY ADJOURN Sanders pointed out that the tennis courts in Pioneer Park will be handicapped accessable. Sanders also reported that Code does not require an elevator for access to the upper floor of the recreation building proposed for Pioneer Park. The Commission reviewed the staff report on the properties in the Park Street area which are tax forfeit. The Commission noted that these are the same properties which it reviewed last fall, recommending at that time that they be acquired by the City. However, the City Council took the position that they be put back on the tax rolls. The Commission was unsure as to what the designations of conservation and non - conservation meant and asked for a clarification on that point. The Commission reviewed the fact that Lots 2, 3, and 4 appear to be wetland and felt they should be retained as wetland. The Commission asked if it were necessary for the City to obtain the deed for these parcels in order to assure that they remain wetland. Sanders expressed concern with the filling of the former Turnquist property, stating that he hoped that the whoever is filling does not begin to fill on the opposite side of the driveway in the wetland area. Scalze reported that the property is owned by Ron Palmen who hopes to develop approximately 10 single - family lots in the area. Mr. Palmen does have a fill permit. Scalze did not believe that Mr. Palmen owned the wetland area that Sanders was referring to. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 8:45 P.M.
