Rick noted that the park dedication <br />ordinance will be revised by the first of the year. The park <br />dedication at that time may be higher than the current <br />requirements. The developer will want the park dedication based <br />on the current ordinance. <br />Park Board members expressed concern regarding the price of the <br />property, indicating they are not comfortable with buying the <br />property at $40,000 per acre. Members also expressed concern <br />regarding location and the addition of the athletic complex if <br />approved. <br />Pat Huelman made a motion, seconded by Jeff Reinert, to approve <br />Rick to negotiate and discuss the price with the developer, using <br />his discretion, and to report back to the Park Board for <br />approval. Motion carried unanimously. <br />RECREATION DEPARTMENT UPDATE: <br />Rick referred to the Program Highlights Flyer from <br />August /September, 1999.
