This concept has been reviewed by myself and Jeff Schoenbauer, and should adequately service the needs for the overall development scheme. Please find enclosed a copy of the developers proposal and breakout of the land areas and proposed park dedications. For phase 1 and 2, we would take the land dedication and any additional amount owed in cash. We would then release this cash as needed as additional land is dedicated. The trail corridor adequately accomplishes the goals of the Comprehensive plan. All the trail corridors are indicated by the blue lines as drawn on the color coded maps. Please refer to the enclosed color coded maps and the larger concept for phase 1, and 2. . For phase 1, and 2 you are considering the acceptance of a peninsula of hand on the east side of the development, and a triangular piece of land on the western side.

Since the Developer does not control this land yet, he �Vi has indicated that he would write into the agreement assurances of Op a land dedication in an area that he does now own in the area indicated as phase 5, and highlighted by the green cross-hatch in exhibit D of the concept plan. This area would be a 10 acre parcel of size. Obviously this is not the best scenario for anyone. I have included a copy of the planning report for the Public hearing concerning Clearwater Creek. This report basically covers phases one and two as it refers to park dedication. Please note that the proposed dedication is for 36.13 acres. This figure reflects park acreage including wetlands. Thus, this figure would now be different. Please refer to the break-out sheet of land percentages and formal proposal cover page submitted by the developer, Mr. Tony ,Emmerich. As you can see, for phase 1, the developable upland area is 77.2 acres. The 10`k park land dedication would thus equal 7.7 acres, in an area of 153 lots zoned R-1 (single Family) with a
