The developer shows the trails that were built in 2017 with Clearwater Cove on Oneka <br />Parkway North and along the ditch. The developer is proposing a trail connecting these <br />existing trails east to the Hardwood Creek Regional Trail along the ditch. This would <br />provide a scenic and desirable recreational amenity. <br />There is a trail on the west side of Fenway Avenue North in the Oneka Estates <br />neighborhood. According to the Existing and Proposed Trails Map (Map 6-7), this trail is <br />planned to be extended to Frenchman Avenue with the extension of the roadway. This <br />needs to be included in the development plans. Additionally, the planned trail on the <br />south side of Frenchman Avenue needs to be included in the development plans. <br />Per the city code, sidewalks are required along all county roads, state highways, city <br />collector streets, and along all city residential streets where abutting lots have a width of <br />less than 80 feet. The developer has not shown where sidewalks would be constructed. <br />Sidewalks have been constructed along both sides of Victor Path, which should continue. <br />Additinally, sidewalks would be required along residential streets. <br />6. PARK DEDICATION REQUIREMENTS: <br />In order to develop a system of parks within the community to serve the public's health <br />and recreational needs, a percentage of the net buildable acreage based on the density of <br />all land subdivided for residential purposes shall be dedicated to the city as public <br />parkland. The city finds that the more dense a development is, the more demand for park <br />land it creates since lots can be smaller affording less private recreational space and more <br />occupants per acre. The developer is required to dedicate land, pay a fee, or a <br />combination of land and fee. <br />The developer has indicated that there may be a 4.2 acre park dedicated and the <br />remainder paid in fees. The total number of proposed units and total buildable acreage of <br />the development is not clear and is not consistent between site plans. These are the <br />assumptions used in order to provide an example of what the park dedication calculations <br />could be: <br />Units Developable Acres <br />DR Horton West site: 30 units 10.3 acres <br />DR Horton East site: 102 units 19.8 acres <br />Apartments: 150 units 6.1 acres <br />Senior Housing: 150 units estimated 4.3 acres <br />Total: 432 total units 40.5 acres <br />Park land dedication is preferred and 10-17% of the buildable land shall be dedicated <br />based on the density of the development. With the assumptions above, the density of the <br />proposed development would be over 10 units per acre and would therefore require 17% <br />of the buildable land to be dedicated. Currently, the fee is $2,400 per unit. This fee is set <br />annually, and the current rate at the time of building permits would be paid. <br />-4- <br />Oneka Commons <br />January 15, 202 <br />
