I don’t know the history of the City’s interest so staff is seeking direction from the Commission. ISSUE BEFORE COMMISSION: Is the Commission interested in having the City obtain ownership of the trails in Tapestry? If so, which ones? PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: Included in your packet is a map of the trails in Tapestry. Does the Commission see any value in taking over those trails? Do they fit into a long range plan for trail connectivity? There could be value in the trails which connect to Sunfish Lake Park. The commission should be cautious though in accepting any trails that don’t fit into a larger connectivity plan given that so many developments have trails. Once staff has a clearer understanding of the commission’s interest, continued discussions can occur with the HOA representative regarding other issues, such as maintenance level of the trails. FISCAL IMPACT: Ongoing trail maintenance costs including supplies and staff time. OPTIONS: 1) Indicate the commission is not interested in any Tapestry HOA trails 2) Identify which Tapestry HOA trails the commission would be interested in having the City obtain
