AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 21, PASSED BY THE
VILLAGE COUNCIL OF THE VILLAGE OF LINO LAKES, ANOKA COUNTY, MINNESOTA,
ON OCTOBER 14, 1957.
The Village Council of the Village of Lino Lakes, Anoka County,
Minnesota, ordains:
I
Ordinance No. 21, passed by the Village Council of Lino Lakes,
Anoka County, Minnesota, 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 recrea-
tional purposes. Therefore, with each plat there shall hereafter be
dedicated to the municipality an area equal to, not less 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 usable land and shall be located so as to
serve the present and future needs of the community for recreational
and park purposes. The Planning Board and Village Council shall con-
sider 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:
1. The enforcement of this provision would act as an extreme
hardship to the subdivider 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 contribute 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 contribution 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.
