SETTING THE AGENDA: Item 6A, Review Potential Park Area in Clearwater Creek Development Center, was added to the agenda. The amended agenda was passed as presented. OPEN MIKE: • No one was present for open mike. • REVIEW BLUEBILL PONDS PRELIMINARY PLAT: Rick advised the 35 acre development is located on the south side of Main Street, between Wood Duck trail and Bluebill Lane. The preliminary plat identifies 72 single family lots and a park dedication of 2.26 acres. Rick referred to Outlot C on the map. The Comprehensive Park Plan and Development Guide recommends a neighborhood park in this area of 10 acres. The identified park area is adjacent to 5.2 acres of park land that was acquired in the Highland Meadows Subdivision. As development occurs directly east of the Bluebill Ponds Development, some additional park land can be acquired to complete this park area. It should be noted that the recommended 2.26 acres of park land is developable. Rick recommended that the Park Board consider requesting a trail connection along the western edge of the proposed park area to provide access to residents in the Bluebill Ponds Development. As with all trail segments, the City recommends acquiring a 15' wide strip of park property and requires the developer to install the sub -base per City specifications. Rick recommended to approve the 2.26 acres of park land with the remaining balance to be paid in cash, per the City's park dedication ordinance, and be designated for future development of this park area. 1
