Present : Ray Johnson , Pete Scherer, Jim Flannery , Bill Nissen . George Lindy joined the meeting at 8 :15 P .M. Pete Kluegel , Building Inspector; Don Volk , Public Works Supervisor; and Shar Foster, Secretary were also present . BURQUE AND TUBBS METES AND BOUNDS SUBDIVISION - PARK DEDICATION The City has received application for two metes and bounds sub- divisions very near each other in the southeast corner of the City; the Audrey Burque subdivision request , and the Paul Tubbs subdivision request . The Park Board is looking at the park dedi- cation requirements with regard to these requests as one issue , because of their close proximity . Mr. Volk and Mr. Kluegel ex- plained that the City Planner is putting together a road access plan for the area which would assure that easements are planned for future roads when considering the subdivisions . The Board was reminded that there is approximately a 20-acre parcel near the West Oaks area which is marginal land set aside for an undeveloped park. It was felt that the issue of park dedication fees scheduled for discussion at this meeting should be resolved in conjunction with these two subdivisions , so that the applicants ' ,^ park dedication fees can be made according to the new policy . The Board particularly wanted the dollar amount figures in lieu of land to be decided upon with regard to these two applicants . ESTABLISHING NEW PARK DEDICATION POLICY The Board reviewed the March 11 , 1985 memo from Zack Johnson , sub- ject "Park Dedication Fees" and the proposed guidelines attached. The consensus of the Board was that the fees should be based on : density , per unit , paid upon granting of building permit , option available for land in place of money , separate fee for industrial property . It was mentioned that there seems to be some discrepancy with the City Cody versus other written guidelines used by the City in deter- mining park fees . Ray Johnson moved to set the park dedication fee at $160 per unit and have all City guidelines rewritten per the proposal presented by Zack Johnson . All City documents referencing park dedication policy need to be consistent . Mr. Flannery seconded the motion . On the vote , Mr. Scherer voted no. Motion carried. CONSIDERATION OF MINUTES - FEBRUARY 4 , 1985 Ray Johnson moved to approved the minutes as presented . Mr. Flannery seconded the motion. Carried unanimously .

Ken Johnson reminded all the members that if anyone knew of a candidate for the Park Board, please let the Council know. BMX FINANCIAL STATEMENT Ray Johnson had copies distributed to all the members of the financial statement that Jim Kleinhans gave to the Lino Lakes Lions Club with regard to the BMX track . It appears that the track is self-supporting at this point , but does not make a profit . The Board asked that the financial statement be for- warded annually as a means of staying informed. BALLFIELD FENCING QUOTES The Board reviewed quotes presented by Don Volk for fencing for all the ballfields . The quotes include four foot outfield fencing and six foot dug-out fencing for all the fields . Mr . Lindy joined the meeting at this time . Mr. Volk reported that one of the fences put in two years ago is already having warranty work done on it and he would not recom- mend that company . Mr. Ray Johnson moved to accept the proposal from the Crown Company for $5 ,594 for fencing for all the ballfields . Mr . Flannery sec- onded the motion. Motion carried unanimously . Ken Johnson asked that the Capital Improvement Plan review become an agenda item for next month 's meeting so that the members can see what plans there are for 1985 and what has been completed. SUNSET OAKS PARK DEDICATION At February ' s meeting the Board asked that Mr. Stanley , the develop- er of the Sunset Oaks area be present for discussion of the park dedication for the development . A motion was made at that time to check into certain lots which had been chosen as land for park dedication. Mr . Stanley reported that some of the lots chosen have already been sold and also did not feel the dollar amount decided upon was accurate (per Don Volk) . Apparently , the acreage used to figure the park dedication requirements should be changed to reflect the air park subdivision , etc. Mr . Volk agreed to recalculate the total acreage taking these items into account . Mr. Stanley did not appear before the Board. Ken Johnson moved to table this item until next month . Mr. Scherer seconded the motion. Carried unanimously . d` PARK BOARD March 18, 1985 Page Three CONSIDERATION OF ELECTING CHAIRMAN AND VICE-CHAIRMAN Mr. Scherer nominated Ken Johnson as Chairman for 1985 .
