Ary Gearman wishes to permit conventional stick-built home construction in the R-7 manufactured home subdivision district . There has been slow sales of lots for the high value manufactured homes resulting in late assessment payments . Gearman believes that he will be able to sell lots quickly if he can sell to conventional builders and as a result he will be able to make his payments to the city. The city would like to see park land dedicated to the city. MOTION: John Bauman moved to recommend that John Miller/City Planner and Don Volk/Director of Public Works make the final decision regarding park land dedication and send dedication to Council . Bob Williams seconded the motion and the motion was carried unanimously. OPEN MIKE: Jack Menkfeld-Sunrise Meadows Jack came before the Park Board as requested by the Planning and Zoning Board. The Planning and Zoning Board is looking for a walkway between Caribow Circle and Sunrise Park, and are looking for input from the Park Board regarding this issue. MOTION: John Bauman moved to reject the pathway request by the Planning and Zoning Board for Mr. Menkfeld - Sunrise Meadows . John recommended the Park Board go back to the original agreement between Mr. Menkfeld and themselves. That agreement was made at the April. Park Board meeting and reads as follows : Jack purchased land from Mr. Ulmer and suggested a cash offer as park dedication for the proposed subdivision lots , north of Sunrise. Mr. Schumacher recommended that Jack Menkfelds proposed subdivision be credited park dedication fees paid by the previous developer. In the motion made at that time, the City Administrator - Randy Schumacher made sure it was clear that the amount already paid is subtracted from the amount due now. Bob Williams seconded the motion and the motion was carried unanimously. OLD BUSINESS: BRADLEY WALKWAY UPDATE : DON VOLK AND CHAIRMAN JOHNSON: Don Volk reported that Ray Johnson and himself walked through the 74th Street area easement and that the area is unacceptable for a walkway. There are large Oak Trees with at least 200 feet of forest . Don said the only place for a walkway would be the Bradley/Leonard Street area. The two petitions submitted by the residents were so close in that there were a few more residents who wanted the walkway than those opposed.
