development to maintain the landscaping and the water re -use system. A sub -association <br />will be established for the villa units for snow removal and lawn maintenance. <br />3. PARKS COMMISSION DISCUSSION: <br />At their meeting of November 15, 2017, the Parks Commission reviewed a sketch plan <br />and provided informal comments in regards to trails, park improvements, and park <br />dedication. The plan at that time included a concept on how the park could be developed <br />in a more active way including a pavilion, parking area, and possible sport <br />court/playground and ball fields. In general, the Parks Commission liked the proposal, <br />but realized there are several details to work out. The Parks Commission provided the <br />following comments: <br />• They liked the trails within the development, but wanted to make sure proper <br />connections were made to the proposed park for the residents within the <br />development. <br />• They looked at whether the connections to existing trails and sidewalks were <br />sufficient in addition to planned future trails. <br />• They had concerns about the amount of parking shown on the plan for the <br />proposed active park area. <br />• They questioned the concept of the park showing improvements within wetland <br />areas. <br />• They favorably viewed the wooded areas for wildlife habitat and as a buffer for <br />the trails. <br />• They had questions about the lots that were previously proposed to be located off <br />of Farnham Avenue, as they seems disconnected from the rest of the <br />development. <br />4.
