Subject: Re: Shenandoah Dedication
The money that we collected in 1997 should have been phases before 6 - 10. (Phases 6 - 10 are their
most recent phases towards the back of the subdivision near Barron Road.) The money we collected was
the old fee of $225 per lot. When they were planning Phases 6 - 10 in Shenandoah and Phases 1 - 5 in
Alexandria, they dedicated land to satisfy their entire requirement (before the development fee was
required.).
Around the time of Phase 7 in Shenandoah, their preliminary plat expired which grandfathered them under
the old parkland ordinance. We allowed Phase 7 to develop without paying the development fee. It's my
opinion that we should require the development fee with Phases 8 and up. Mike's working on the new
master plan now. We should make decisions on the land dedication and let them know that as phases
develop or final plat, they will be required to pay the development fee.
I hope this answers you question. Please let me know if this is as clear as mud.

My records show 2 in 1997. $34,200 & $9,675.00 both paid by Ed Froehling.
>>> Ric Ploeger 02/04/03 10:38AM >>>
We intend to take the additional 6.4 acres of proposed dedication to the Parks Board on Tuesday (2 -11)
for future phases of Shenandoah.
McClure indicated that they are interested in developing a portion of the park themselves. I am asking if
any development fee portions of required dedications have been paid by Ed Froehling in the past. The

dedications that I have a record of were in 1997 before we had a park development fee. Is this accurate?
McClure is asking us to reserve these funds given for Shenandoah to go to their park development.

MEMORANDUM
July 12, 2001
TO: Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Spencer Thompson, Dev Sery Eng
SUBJECT: MASTER PRELIMINARY PLAT for SHENANDOAH PHASE 7 THRU 10
(PP)
Item: Discussion and possible action on a PRELIMINARY PLAT for SHENANDOAH
PHASE 7 THRU 10 (PP), consisting of 216, single - family lots on an 88 acre tract. (1-
500148)
Applicant: EDWARD FROEHLING
Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval with Staff Comments.
Item Summary: Shenandoah Subdivision, Phases 7 thru 10 is located off Barron Road
and across from Alexandria Subdivision. Phase 6 is complete. A Master Preliminary
Plat for Shenandoah Phases 6 - 10 was approved in 1998. That MPP has expired.
The Applicant submitted a Final Plat Application for Phase 7A and 7B. However, the
application was not accepted due to the fact that a current Preliminary Plat was not on
record.
Because the Plat had expired, Staff wished to take the opportunity to look at
connectivity in the area. This tract abuts the Crowley tract. Alexandria is no longer
being extended through and will dead -end in Shenandoah. The City is asking the
Developer to extend a residential street to the northeast adjacent tract. It has not been
decided which of the streets will be extended. The extended street will transect the
park and the Parks Department wants to work closely with the Developer in deciding
this aspect of the project.
The City asked the Developer to oversize the sewer line from Shenandoah to the
Spring Creek Trunk Line. The Developer had obtained a sewer easement and was
installing an 8" line for the project. A 12" line was requested to better serve the area.
The City also asked the developer to extend sewer to the adjacent tract to the
southwest. The extension is shown on the plat on Lexington Lane.
Parkland dedication was discussed with the original plat. The Developer has dedicated
an 8 -acre portion of the area to date. The City will allow the Final Plat of &A and 7B to
move forward with the current parkland dedication. Further plats will require the
remaining land to be dedicated. This park will connect to the Greenspace in the
Crowley addition.
It should be understood with this Master Preliminary Plat that Phases 8 - 10 may slightly
change. The Developer is assessing the idea of acquiring other property in the area
and, if this occurs, the street layout may change. Also, as mentioned above, the
through- street location has not been established.
Comprehensive Plan Considerations:
Land Use Plan: The LUP depicts this area as single - family, residential.
Thoroughfare Plan: The T -Plan shows Southern Plantation Drive continuing to the
southwest as a minor collector.
Parkland Dedication: As discussed above, the Developer can final plat Phase 7A and
7B. Phases 8 thru 10 will require the dedication of the remaining parkland.
Open Space Dedication: The parkland is being dedicated to the City. The park is part
detention pond, part open space and part greenway. This park will join with the
Greenspace in the Crowley Development.
Special Area Plans: N/A
Budgetary & Financial Summary: The City has requested the Developer to increase
the downstream size of the sewer line from 8" line to 12 ". This will allow the line to
serve the areas to the northeast and southwest.

ted, spencer ken and I met with Mike McClure this morning. He is amenable to making a street
connection to the east. This will go thru the parkland that is still to be dedicated. I will talk to parks about
how they feel about a residential street going thru this area and report back to Spencer before he writes
his staff report.
As for the master plan, Spencer will recommend approval with the condition that the street connection
east be made from one of 3 streets and that the exact location be determined at a later date with a
revised master plan.
As for the 4 acres that has still not been dedicated, I told Mike that because he still has more lots that
could be built with the dedication that has already been made (this is somewhat of a stretch since part of
the dedication that has been made includes a detention facility), that in the interest of facilitating
development we would allow the phase 7 to go on to final plat. Spencer will cover this in his staff report
so that it's in writing. The park boundary will change when the street connection is made so it makes
sense to hold off on the dedication a while longer.
If this is mud to anyone feel free to stop by and we an talk about it.

Bridgette George - shenandoah and street connectivity
From: Jane Kee
To: Spencer Thompson
Date: 7/10/01 2:34PM
Subject: shenandoah and street connectivity
well, the parks guys weren't quite as excited about cutting a residential street thru their park as I thought
they might be!
Ric felt like the most southerly street wouldn't be a problem and that maybe the middle culdesac wouldn't
be a problem. Because of the topo south of the middle culdesac, there probably wouldn't be much park
development anyway on that southern side.
He says he thinks the board would be very opposed to extending the northern culdesac or the street that
would run adjacent to the detention pond. They try to keep streets, even residential ones, from cutting
their parks in half so kids don't have to run back and forth.
He really thought they would like the idea of more park east of the 8 acres so if Froeling decides to buy
the property east then a relocation of that 4 acres might be well supported by parks.
They have this on the August Parks Board meeting just to talk about the street connectivity issue and see
how the board responds. We probably need to be at that one.
So, Spencer the report can still recommend approval with the connectivity issue to be resolved pending
parks board consideration.

I sure will. There was a lot of discussion amongst the Board during this item, but hopefully, this will help
you out now:
August 14, 2001 Meeting: A motion was made that Lexington Court become Lexington Drive for
connectivity purposes. Motion was seconded and passed unanimously.
Let me know if you have any questions. :
