ANOKA COUNTY, MINNESOTA, ON OCTOVER 14, 1957. The Village Council of the Village of Lino Lakes, Anoka County, Minnesota, ordains: Ordinance No. 21 , passed by the Village Council of Lino Lakes, Anoka County, Minn- esota, on October 14, 1957, is• hereby amended by adding thereto the following, to-wit: SECTION 16 A. PARK AND RECREATION It is deemed necessary and consistent with the Village Planning of the Village of Lino Lakes, Minnesota, to provide in each new proposed plat or subdivision areas for future development, for park and recreational purposes. Therefore, with each plat there shall hereafter be dedicated to the municipality an area equal to, not le-s than, but not to exceed, 10 per cent of the total proposed area to be subdivided less such area dedicated therein for public streets. Such area shall consist of developable and us- able land and shall be located so as to serve the present and future needs of the comm- unity for recreational and park purposes. The Planning Board and Village Council shall consider the proposed location in relation to existing or contemplated recreational and park sites in other parts of the community and as to the suitability in meeting the requirements of the Village Plan. Dedication of land for school or other public purposes ,..or for private recreational sites shall not satisfy the requirements of this section. The requirements of this section may be waived or modified by the Village.Council , after recommendation by the Planning Board, for any of the following reasons: I . The enforcement of this provision would act as an extreme hardship to the sub- divider because of the size of the tract involved. 2. Where the subdivider is enlarging a subdivision and has already dedicated land for park purposes and another park would not be beneficial to the area. As an alternative to the sections above, the subdivider may be allowed to contri- bute an amount in cash equivalent to the market value, on the date of the acceptance of the plat by the Village Council , of land required to be dedicated by this subdivision. The Village Council shall render the decision in all cases where there is a request to so contribute monies instead of dedication of lands, both as to whether such con- tribution shall be allowed in lieu of dedication and the amount of such contribution if a contribution is allowed. Such cash payments shall be turned over to the Village Treasurer for deposit in the Park Fund as dedicated funds. II Save as above amended, said Ordinance No. 21 shall stand as initially adopted and as previously amended. III This ordinance shall be in full force and effect from and after its passage and publication according to law.
