hEMO T0: Parks and Recreati o ssioners <br />FROM: Director Anderson <br />` DATE: March 20, 1979 <br />RE: Silver View Park Acquisiticn <br />Enclosed is a copy of a tetter mailed to 14r. Dan Engelsma, Vica President, <br />Kraus/Mderson which has been our last correspondence regarding the Silver <br />View Park land acquisition. At this point we have not contacted nor have <br />we heard from Kraus/Anderson in regards to this issue. <br />The state called the other day and informed us that the contract for funding <br />along with the check for acquisition will be delivermd to the City by mid-April. <br />Basically staff has been waiting to receive the final grant monies before any <br />formal negotiations are recpened with Kraus/Anderson. <br />Staff still feels that the following p3ckage could hest benefit the City and <br />developer: <br />7. Re-locate the park site up *,o Co�nty Road I and Silver Lake Road. <br />2. Trade the City's existing 16.5 acres for an equal amount of land <br />directly north. <br />3. Direct CiLy Attarney hkyers to make an offer on behalf of the City <br />for $10,006/acre which wou7d purchase 12.8 acres. <br />4. Comnence development of the 28.8 acres of park land with the 1979 <br />L.A.W.C.O.N. Phase i Development Grant. <br />5. Recomnend to the Council that the City dertend 10% land dedication of <br />park land as their share of the Park dedication fund. This would in <br />turn potentialy bring the City an additional 70 acres for a total park <br />site of 38.8 acres. <br />Staff's first priority before we follow the aforementioned process would <br />sti11 be to work out total package agreement with Kraus/Rnderson to ensure a <br />high quality development. <br />� <br />
