Woodridge Estates - Marty explained that this should <br /> have been platted with trails, and that he (Mart) is still <br /> checking correspondence in the City files referring to the <br /> original development plans, etc. He also noted that Rick <br /> Carlson is concerned that if he should put the trails in now <br /> with new houses going in -that the platted trails will be run <br /> over. Ray Johnson thinks that at least 90% of the people <br /> building here are not aware that there will be trails, and <br /> that he wants to be assured that people buying property will <br /> know in advance. Marty will make sure Rick Carlson is aware <br /> of how Ray feels about this issue. Ray thinks that all the <br /> people affected should get a letter to know this, perhaps put <br /> up trail signs. <br /> Focus Meeting - Both Don and Marty expressed how vital <br /> this first meeting is to the future of the city parks. Ray <br /> informed Marty that he will be unable to attend the meeting <br /> because of a conflict in his schedule. Marty asked that he be <br /> able to document Ray's feelings so that he could present them <br /> to Brauer and Associates at the meeting on November 20th. <br /> Pheasant Hills = Don explained that Ed Vaughan is coming <br /> in with his development in phases. The developer wants to <br /> dedicate only a portion of his previously agreed upon land <br /> dedication requirements, this being the peninsula, and <br /> dedicate the remainder of the land dedication with future <br /> phases. Don asked whether Park Board agreed with the idea of <br /> phased land dedication with phased development. He further <br /> added that when Park Board review this subdivision, they <br /> review the entire concept, not just a phase. Don believes <br /> that phasing park land dedication with development will <br /> become very unorthodox, and difficult to track. Also it will <br /> be leaving open a door for change in land dedication as <br /> future phases develop. The Park Board had agreed at an <br /> earlier meeting with the developer that the dedication of the <br /> so called "peninsula" and "island" would meet all park land <br /> dedication for the entire parcel to be developed by Ed <br /> Vaughan. Ray agrees - "get the title to the property as soon <br /> as possible. " Ray Johnson made a motion that the title for <br /> all dedication be conveyed to the City at the time of final <br /> approval from the council. The motion was seconded and <br /> carried. <br /> OTHER OLD BUSINESS: Ray brought up the school property on <br /> Birch. Is there a possibility of getting this dedicated for <br /> parks from the School Board? He thinks we should approach <br /> the School Board, possibly even purchase it as it is a <br /> perfect piece to develop. <br /> Page 3 <br />
