Park Land Dedication Ordinance: Development: Engineer: Owner/Developer: Location: Park District: Units: Total Acres: Indian Springs Phase H (PUD) Jorgensen & Associates Sweetser Properties, Inc. South of Highway 45 East on Starr Drive Southeast 18 multi -family 3.2 acres Land Dedication Requirement: 18 x .02 = .36 acres Money in Lieu: 18 x $375 = $6,750 Existing Parks: Vandergriff - 6.25 acres; Crossover - 18.01 acres; Covington - 2.25 acres: Trammel Park - .87 acres Developer's Recommendation: Money in lieu 1 • Staff Recommendation: Money in lieu Justification: The land is located near four city parks. Because this is a PUD, there is greenspace provided by the homeowners association immediately south of this phase in phase I. The current greenspace provides a beautiful pond and picnic area The park land dedication would provide only .36 acres which would be located next to a very busy street. PRAB Motion: 8. Policies and Procedures for Naming Park Facilities: Please review the enclosed proposed policy and procedure for naming city park facilities. PRAB Motion: 9. Recommendation to Name City Park located in the Covington Subdivision: Park staff has three recommendations to name the 2.25 acre park in the Covington Subdivision. The park is located east of Crossover Park and north of Township. The three names submitted include Braden Park, Braden Isle, and Braden Island. The park boundaries form a tear drop shape with sidewalk and streets around the perimeter. Historical Significance: The original Braden Community School house was located at the corner of Highway 45 and 265 near the current site of Mcllroy Bank. The school was established prior to 1884 as Washington County School District #9 serving the area in which the park is located. Naming this park Braden would acknowledge a community which existed throughout the 1800's until about 1970 and recognize the region's past heritage for generations to come. 10.
