The subdivision consists of 108 multi -family units that sits on 9.28 acres. The owner and developer is Summit Development and the engineer is Sand Creek Engineering and Landscape Architecture Incorporated. The requirement for park land is 2.16 acres and money in lieu is $40,500. The actual total amount of acres or money in lieu will be determined during the final plat process in which the total number of lots are determined. The formula base is updated every two years. A letter was received from Summit Development, Inc. requesting consideration of a cash payment in lieu of a land dedication. (See attached letter.) Park staff toured the site with the engineer Stephen Kramer and recommended money in lieu be accepted as the requirement. The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board held a special meeting on December 1, 1999 at the proposed site. (See meeting minutes.) The board recommended to accept money in lieu as the park land requirement based on the reasons stated below: 1. It is in close proximity to Ozark View Park which was selected as the future site for the Youth Center. Plans of the Youth Center are to expand the acreage to about 20 acres. 2. It is a higher priority to use the money to develop a walking trail from the existing subdivisions to the future Youth Center in Ozark View Park. 3. There was limited access from existing roadways to the proposed park within the subdivision. The subdivision is also located in close proximity to the Interstate 540, which would be a safety concern. 4. The developer proposed to provide several park amenities including a swimming pool, basketball court, tennis court, recreation building, picnic tables and grills, and an open park area for their residents. • • 2 Because the proposed subdivision contains over 100 units, Ordinance 3793 regulates the Parks Division to accept a land dedication. The ordinance states: However, if the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board determines that a neighborhood park is not feasible or advisable, it may recommend to the City Council that a cash contribution pursuant to our ordinance be accepted in Lieu of land dedication. The City Council will either accept the recommendation for a cash contribution or return the subdivision plat to the Parks Board with instructions or for further study. Please review this request to waive the park land dedication requirement and to accept money in lieu as the park land dedication requirement for this development. If you have questions, please call me at 444-3473.

The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board visited an unnamed development south of Highway 16 on Shiloh Drive. The purpose of the meeting was to visit the development to consider for park land or money in lieu of the Park Land Ordinance. Members Present: Alexander, Colwell, Eads, Luttrell, Shoulders, Stockland Members Absent: Ackerman Staff Present: Edmonston, Evans, Gulley, Rogers, Schuldt Media Present: Matt Wagner- NWA Times • Development: No name. (Shiloh Drive) Engineer: Sand Creek Owner/Developer: Summit Development Location: South of Highway 16 on Shiloh Drive to the west Park District: Southwest Units: 108 Multi -Units Total Acres: 9.28 acres Land Dedication Requirement: 2.16 acres Money In Lieu: $40,500 Existing Parks: Ozark View (3.2 acres); Davis (9); Finger (19) Staff Recommendation: Money in Lieu. This will require a waiver to the Park Land Dedication Ordinance since it contains over 100 units. It is in close proximity of Ozark View Park, which was selected as the site for the future Youth Center. The development has included a swimming pool, basketball court, tennis court, recreation building, picnic tables and grills, and an open park area. Mrs. Theil stated that the apartment complex could prevent access to others not living in the apartments from using the amenities. Mr. Schuldt stated that yes, the apartment could refuse access to the amenities for non residents. Mrs. Theil stated that others in this area wouldn't have a park. Mr. Schuldt stated that the Fayetteville Youth Center has a proposed site and there are other surrounding parks in the area. Mr. Luttrell stated that Ozark Electric is discussing a road that would go through from Shiloh Drive towards Ozark Electric and beyond, thus, making easier access to Fayetteville Youth Centers proposed site. Mr. Gulley said the new proposed Fayetteville Youth Center site would have many amenities. December 1, 1999 / Page 1 • • PRAB Special Meeting Mrs. Theil recommended to earmark money for a trail along the boundary that Mr. Luttrell had discussed. Mr. Luttrell stated that there had been a discussion with Mr. Marinoni, the land owner to the south and he is receptive to the idea of the road. Mr. Schuldt said if we do put in a park and the complex provides amenities it would be hard for people to distinguish which is an amenity and which is a park. Mr. Alexander stated he didn't see the feasibility of placing a park in a apartment complex. Mrs. Theil said that her concern was the neighbors in adjoining subdivisions, however if other parks are accessible that's okay. Mr. Luttrell said he was concerned with people walking through residents yards to get to the park in the new subdivision. Mrs. Edmonston complimented the developer for providing the various park amenities for the residents. Motion: Mr. Alexander motioned to take money in lieu of land, based on its close proximity to Ozark View and possibly Fayetteville Youth Center. Mr. Luttrell seconded the motion. Motion passed 7-0. Development: Engineer: Owner/Developer: Location: Park District: Units: Total Acres: Land Dedication Requirement: Money In Lieu: Existing Parks: Staff Recommendation: Appleby Estates Jorgensen & Associates Bleaux Barnes & Sam Mathias South of Appleby Road and east of Gregg Street Northwest 17 Single Family 8 08 acres .425 acres $7,990 Gordon Long (6.62 acres); Gregory (19.3) Money in Lieu. It is located close to Gordon Long Park and the land dedication is only .425 acres. The development is not linked to the park and contains Skull creek which is in the flood way. Mr. Schuldt stated staff visited the site to see it if Gordon Long could connect with the proposed land. Staff request money in lieu of land based on the fact that we cannot connect the land with Gordon Long. There is also a steep area and a creek running through the proposed land. December 1, 1999 / Page 2 • PRAB Special Meeting Mr. Gulley said the creek was Skull Creek. Mrs. Theil said that Gordon Long is the only park in this area. Mr. Gulley stated yes, but these apartments over here also have amenities. He also stated that Drake Road will be cutting through the park and area Mrs. Eads said we need more park land eventually, but not this land. Mr. Alexander stated not .425 acres Mrs. Theil said this is a small amount of land. Greenspace wouldn't be good, not in this area, not this piece of land. Mr. Gulley stated that the area near the creek would be in the floodway and that there is already a walking trail proposed in this area. Mr. Shuldt stated he had visited with Chuck Rutherford and that a trail on the west side on the creek would be better. Mr. Alexander said we have been discussing getting a large amount of land in the area. Motion: Wade Colwell motioned for money in lieu of land. Mr. Stockland seconded the motion. Motion passed 7-0. Parks and Recreation Advisory Board meeting for Monday December 6, 1999 is at 5:30 p.m. Holiday snacks will be provided at 5:00 p.m. Meeting dismissed at 12:35 p.m. MINUTES APPROVED: MINUTES TAKEN BY: Tracie A.
