AGENDA ITEM <br /> STAFF ORIGINATOR Marty Asleson <br /> DATE June 6, 1993 <br /> TOPIC JU-3, Joint Use Park Birch Street South of <br /> Sherman Lake <br /> With the encroaching development around the S. Sherman Lake area it <br /> was felt that we should move forward on ensuring open space as a <br /> neighborhood park at the site identified as JU-3 on page 6-82 of <br /> our comprehensive plan. There has been a 10 acre open space need <br /> identified on the parcel of land that now is owned by the <br /> Centennial School District. <br /> Please refer to the previous correspondence that I have had with <br /> Superintendent McClellan concerning this issue. I attended the <br /> school board meeting -on the 21 st of June to present our <br /> comprehensive park plan and needs in this area. A request was <br /> given to allow us to enter into a cooperative use agreement for 10 <br /> acres of this land, and if the School District ever intends to sell <br /> this property that we would be given a first consideration to <br /> purchase it. There was in 1987 a similar agreement that was <br /> written, that fell by the wayside for one reason or another. <br /> The Centennial School Board agreed to the cooperative use agreement <br /> (please see June 21st letter from John McClellan) , but were <br /> unwilling to give us a formal first consideration to purchase our <br /> park needs if they should decide to sell. They did say that we <br /> would in all probability be considered first if the above mentioned <br /> occasion would arise. <br /> 1. Pursue the cooperative agreement with Centennial School <br /> District for the use of land south of Sherman Lake. <br /> 2 .. Do not pursue this agreement <br /> Make a recommendation to pursue the agreement. <br />
