Should the land to the <br /> north not be developed, the developer will give written assurance of a 10 acre site in the area <br /> shown as Phase V" (this is the current phase III that we are discussing). <br /> The park land which was dedicated in Phase I and II is not suitable for park development. It is <br /> my recommendation to require an 8 acre developable park area to serve the present and future <br /> residents of the Clearwater Creek developments. Since there will not be any further <br /> development to the north, as originally planned, this area will not build out to 450 homes. An 8 <br /> acre park could still serve the recreational and leisure needs of this area, without creating an <br /> undue hardship to the developer. <br /> There is an existing trail located on the western edge of the existing Clearwater Creek <br /> Development, west of Tele Lane. It is imperative that this trail continue southward to provide <br /> trail access to the 3rd Addition Development, future developments, and park areas. <br /> r*N sw/parkbrd/Review Clearwater Creek 3`d Addition—Preliminary Plat.doc <br />
