Existing Parks: Bayyari Park (7.05 acres), Eagle Park (1.95 acres) Staff Recommendation: Money in lieu of land November 13, 2001 / Page 1 • PRAB Special Meeting Developer's Recommendation: See Attached Letter Justification: Bayyari Park is already located within this subdivision. Additional park land in this area is not suggested by the proposed Park Master Plan. In 1995, the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board recommended accepting a land dedication to satisfy the requirement for David Lyle Subdivision. The requirement was 3.83 acres. Mr. Bayyari dedicated additional land for a total of 6.98 acres. Mr. Bayyari asked the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board to consider the excess dedication in Phases I and II to help fulfill the Park Land Ordinance requirements for this development in Phase III A perusal of past Parks and Recreation Advisory Board and Planning Commission minutes uncovers no mention of banking land for future development. The PRAB minutes from July 24, 1995 read. ` PRAB recommends to the Planning Commission to accept land, approximately 6.99 acres, for the green space requirement for David Lyle Subdivision. The green space requirement for David Lyle is 3.83 acres Fadil Bayyari will donate the. remainder of the land contingent on him choosing the name for the park." The deed explains the land dedication of 6.98 acres covered 153 single family residential Lots. The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board does not want to set a precedence for other • developments where additional land has been given. • Mr. Bayyari said he was unfamiliar with the term banking. Ms. Edmonston pointed out the language is included in the ordinance. Mr. Bayyari stated he had donated a conservation easement to Ozark Regional Land Trust2 for the protection of the scenic farm and forest along a mile of the West Fork of the White River. These 60 acres provide a protective and scenic buffer for the adjacent city park and prevents future development. Mr. Bayyari said he hoped the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board realized the extent of his contributions and urged them to recommend to the Planning Commission that consideration be given for this addition. Mr. Colwell stated Mr. Bayyari had been generous by donating nearly twice the required amount of land and felt the Park Land Ordinance requirements for David Lyle Duplex Addition should be waived. 'PRAB Special Meeting Minutes, July 24, 1995 2http://www.orlt.org: Ozark Regional Land Trust Website November 13, 2001 / Page 2 PRAB Special Meeting Mr. Schuldt reminded everyone that the actual park land fee is determined at final plat, and the amount is currently under review by ordinance. Any changes [to the ordinance], however, would take affect thirty days after City Council approval. MOTION: Mr. Hill moved to recommend to the Planning Commission to consider the excess park land dedicated in 1996 be accepted in lieu of the Park Land Ordinance requirement for David Lyle Duplex Addition. If not approved by the Planning Commission, the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board recommends money in lieu of a land dedication. Furthermore, any additional surplus acreage will account for the park being named Bayyari and will not be considered as land banked for future development. Mr. Shoulders seconded the motion. Upon roll call, the motion was approved 7-0-0. V. Adjournment The meeting adjourned at 12:30 p.m. MINUTES APPROVED: DEC 31001 MINUTES TAKEN BY: John Nelson November 13, 2001 / Page 3
