PARK BOARD September 3, 1986 Page Three COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REVIEW The Board was scheduled to review the park requirements as part of the comprehensive plan review which the Comp Plan Task Force is currently reviewing. The consensus of the Board was that any changes to the park requirements would be premature if made at this meeting due to the fact that the Task Force is considering changing densities through a large part of the City and these density changes would affect park requiremements for the future. PUDWILL/LIEBERAM MINOR SUBDIVISION PARK DEDICATION The minor subdivision approved for Pudwill/Lieberam went before the Park Board for consideration. Mr. Volk reported that 30+ acres had been divided into two 15. 9+ acres each and that $160 in park dedication fees has already been collected by the City Clerk. Two building sites were created in this subdivision. Therefore the Park Board did not need to review this issue. REVIEW PARK DEDICATION ORDINANCE It was brought to the attention of the Board, by staff , that there is alot of confusion with regard to the current park dedication ordinance. Because the language is cumbersome, several interpreta- tions have resulted. The Board discussed the intent of the current ordinance and agreed that the language should be clarified. Mr. Flannery agreed to draft a revision to the ordinance, keeping the same intent, but clarifying the language. He will contact Mr. Schumacher and Mr. Volk for input and have the draft completed for the Park Board' s review at their next meeting. VANDALISM No vandalism of any consequence has been reported since the last meeting of the Park Board. Mr. Volk reported that the Major Crime Investigation Unit which has been assigned to investigate the vandalism that took place recently at Sunrise Park has not yet begun the investigation. Mr. Volk has requested through the Lino Lakes Police Chief that this be handled in-house. No response has yet been received. Park Department is currently working with insurance company for reimbursement.
