C I T YjIFEW. OF <br /> LINOLAKES <br /> March 31, 1998 <br /> TO: Park Board Members <br /> FROM: Rick DeGardnerto <br /> SUBJECT: Request to Rename Marshan Park <br /> Attached is a letter from Mr. Hokanson requesting that Marshan <br /> Park be renamed in memory of his grandson who died of leukemia. <br /> Also attached are minutes from the Council meeting regarding the <br /> site plan review of the Marshan Condominiums . <br /> When the site plan review was presented to Council, the Lino <br /> Lakes Subdivision Ordinance did not specifically address <br /> condominium subdivisions . This matter was discussed with the <br /> applicant, the applicant' s attorney, city staff, and the city <br /> attorney. It was determined that if all the requirements and <br /> design guidelines of the City' s Zoning Ordinance could be met, <br /> this was the simplest and easiest way to respond to the <br /> developers request for a site plan approval . <br /> Referring to Mr. Hokanson' s letter, he is technically correct <br /> that he donated a three acre parcel of land. However it appears <br /> that Mr. Hokanson would have been required to donate up to 10-14 <br /> percent of the land based on the City' s Subdivision Ordinance. <br /> At the time, even though the existing ordinance did not address <br /> specifically condominiums, it appears had Mr. Hokanson not <br /> "voluntarily" donated the land, the matter would have been <br /> addressed in court. <br /> The Park Naming Resolution that was reviewed and approved at the <br /> March Park Board meeting will be forwarded to Council at the <br /> April 13th Council meeting. <br /> 3/31/98 <br /> sw/mw/sandies folder/parkbrd/Hokanson Marshan Name Change.doc <br /> PARK, RECREATION, FORESTRY, & RECYCLING DEPARTMENTS <br /> 7204 Lake Drive • Lino Lakes, Minnesota • 55014 <br /> Phone: 617-780-1885 • Fax: 612-784-7227 <br />
