The owner is Bristol Development Group, L.L.C. and the engineer is Milholland Company. The development contains 272 multi -family units on 32.6 acres. The requirement for park land is 5.44 acres and money in lieu is $102,000. 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 met with the owner and engineering firm to evaluate the site. The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board (PRAB) visited the site on May 1, 2002. The development was reviewed at the May 6, 2002 PRAB meeting. See attached minutes. Recommendation Parks and Recreation staff and Parks and Recreation Advisory Board recommends money in lieu as the requirement of the Park Land Dedication Ordinance for Bristol Park. This development contains over 100 units, which requires a waiver of the ordinance. The apartments will be surrounded by commercial development and have a gated entryway. It will have sidewalks leading to the Mud Creek Trail via Steele Boulevard. The development has a conceptual plan to include landscaped courtyards with grills and picnic tables, village green with a fountain, club house with a business center, conference rooms, and a theater or billiards room, swimming pool, gazebo with a large barbeque grill, mail kiosk, carwash, sand volleyball courts, detention ponds to be used as fishing ponds, and connecting walks and bike racks. The proposal also states, "There are large open and protected forested areas that remain aesthetically pleasing and park like." The Park Master Plan does note this is an area where a park is needed. However, given the limitations of the apartment complex having a gated entryway in an area surrounded by commercial zoning, and the addition of many park amenities, money in lieu is recommended.

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) Justification: This development contains over 100 units and will require a waiver of the Park Land Dedication Ordinance. The apartments will be surrounded by commercial development. The subdivision will have a gated entryway. It will have sidewalks leading to the Mud Creek Trail via Steele Boulevard. The development has a conceptual plan to include landscaped courtyards with grills and picnic tables, village green with a fountain, club house with a business center, conference rooms, and a theatre or billiards room, swimming pool, gazebo with a large barbeque grill, mail kiosk, carwash, and connecting walks and bike racks. The proposal also states, "There are large open and protected forested areas that remain aesthetically pleasing and park like." The Park Master Plan does note this is an area where a park is needed. However, given the limitations of the apartment complex having a gated entryway in an area surrounded by commercial zoning and the addition of many park amenities, money in lieu is recommended. Thomas Jefcoat, Projects Manager for Milholland Company, said additional amenities may include a sand volleyball court and fishing ponds with aeration [fountains]. The fishing ponds would be created from the detention ponds. Mr. Colwell inquired about land bordering this development on the west side. Mr. Jefcoat said the land was zoned single family in the City of Johnson. MOTION: Mr. Cook moved to recommend money in lieu of a land dedication and request a waiver from City Council to satisfy the Park Land Dedication requirements for the proposed Bristol Park at Steele Crossing development. Mr. Hill seconded the motion. Upon roll call, the motion was approved 5-0-0 with Cook, Mauritson, Hill, Colwell and Marley voting 'yes' and Pawlik-Holmes absent for the vote.

Please note that while the proposed development is for residential use, apartments, amenities include: landscaped courtyards (the largest of which is approximately 7,500 sq. ft.) on which the developer is proposing grills and table; there is a village green (approximately 31,200 sq. ft. of manicured turf area) and fountain (there is discussion of two fountains - one on village green and one on the major east -west roadway axes); a club house with business center, conference rooms and a theater or billiard's room; there will be a pool and bathhouse, a gazebo and large group bar- b-que grill, there will be a mail kiosk, carwash, and extensive connecting walks and bike racks for leisure pedestrian circulation. Some of the sidewalks are proposed as seven foot in width for accommodating trail use. There are large open and protected forested areas that remain aesthetically pleasing and park like. These green spaces are pleasing buffers. And, the view from this area is fantastic. The Conceptual Preliminary Plan, indicates current and proposed property lines and easements, floodway and deed restricted land areas. The addition of public dedicated utility easements will be determined as the proposed developed is designed and is reviewed by City Engineering Staff. Storm Water Drainage will correspond with the drainage sub -basins determined during the development of the infrastructure of CMN Business Park II, Phase I. Existing Drainage Easements are shown of the attached Conceptual Preliminary Plan. Generally, drainage will be controlled underground and conveyed to the north to Clear Creek. Detention ponds (release basins) are anticipated to the north side of the site's developed area These will be defined as plans are finalized.
