ARKANSAS • TO: Mayor Coody and City Council THRU: Hugh Earnest, Urban Development Director FROM: Connie Edmonston, Parks and Recreation Superintendent DATE: December 10, 2002 SUBJECT: Salem Meadows Subdivision Background Salem Meadows Subdivision is a proposed large scale development located on Salem Road west of Holcomb Elementary School and Gary Hampton Softball Complex. The owner is Palmco Properties, L.L.C., John Alford and the engineering firm is Landtech Engineering. The development contains 101 single family units on 39.95 acres. The requirement for park land is 2.5 acres and money in lieu is $47,470. 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 engineering firm to evaluate the site. The development was presented to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board on December 2, 2002 and at a Special Board meeting on December 9, 2002. See attached minutes and proposed park land Recommendation The Parks and Recreation staff and Parks and Recreation Advisory Board recommend a combination of park land in the amount of 1.93 acres and money -in -lieu for the amount of $11,186. The money -in -lieu will be used for park improvements in the northwest park district. In addition, this neighborhood park will serve 64 single family homes to be built in the proposed Salem Heights Subdivision to be located south of Salem Meadows Subdivision. If you have any questions, please call me at 444-3471.
