Schuldt, Parks Development Coordinator DATE: October 9, 2002 SUBJECT: Persimmon Place Subdivision • Background Persimmon Place Subdivision is a proposed large scale development located south of Highway 16 and west of 46`h Ave. The owner is Larry Garroitt and the engineering firm is Jorgensen & Associates. The proposed plat includes 145 single family units on 59.6 acres. The requirement for parkland is 3.625 acres and the money -in -lieu is $68,150. The Park Land Dedication Ordinance states if a large scale development is over 40 acres or 100 units, the requirement is land. "...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 further study" (Unified Development Ordinance No. 166.03K ) Current Status Parks and Recreation staff has met with the engineenng firm to evaluate the site. The development was presented on location to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board on October 7, 2002. See attached minutes. Recommendation The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board and Park staff recommend a money -in -lieu of land contribution for this development. The money -in -lieu contribution will be used for park improvements in the southwest park quadrant. As stated in the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board minutes, Park staff has visited with Mr. Boettcher, Public Works Director, over the possible utilization of city -owned land located near the development for use as a neighborhood park (see map). Mr. Boettcher and Park staff believe that the, yet to be developed, facility plan for the city -owned property will allow for creation of a new neighborhood park. In addition, the citizens of this development will benefit from their proximity to the Fayetteville Boys and Girls Club which will be located approximately V2 mile to the east. If you have any questions, please call me at 444-3472 or Connie Edmonston at 444-3473.
