Section 10 -F (of the Park Land Dedication Ordinance)
10 -F. 1 Any land dedication to the City under this section must be suitable for park and recreation
uses. Consideration will be given to land that is in the floodplain or may be considered "floodable"
even though not in a federally regulated floodplain as long as, due to its elevation, it is suitable for
park improvements.
(a) Neighborhood park sites should be adjacent to residential areas in a manner that serves the greatest
number of users.
Comments:
(b) Neighborhood park sites should be located so that users are not required to cross arterial roadways to
access them.
Comments: The location does not require users to cross an arterial road.
(c) Sites should not be severely sloped or have unusual topography which would render the land unusable for
organized recreational activities.
Comments: Fairly gentle slopes to level land.
(d) Sites should have existing trees or other scenic elements.
Comments:
(e) Detention /retention areas will not be accepted as part of the required dedication, but may be accepted in
addition to the required dedication. If accepted as part of the park, the detention /retention area design must
be approved by the City staff and must meet specific parks specifications.
Comments:
10 -F. 2 Parks should be easy to access and open to public view so as to benefit area development,
enhance the visual character of the city, protect public safety, and minimize conflict with adjacent land
uses. The following guidelines should be used in designing parks and adjacent development:
(a) Where physically feasible, park sites should be located adjacent to greenways and /or schools in order to
encourage both shared facilities and the potential co- development of new sites.
Comments:
(b) A proposed subdivision adjacent to a park may not be designed to restrict reasonable access to the park
from other area subdivisions. Street and greenway connections to existing or future adjoining subdivisions
may be required to provide reasonable access to parks.

Comments:
(c) Where a non - residential use must directly abut a park, the use must be separated by a screening wall or
fence and landscaping. Access points to the park may be allowed by the Planning and Zoning Commission if
a public benefit is established.
Comments: N/A
(d) It is desirable that a minimum of fifty percent (50 %) of the perimeter of a park should abut a public street.
In all cases, the City shall approve the proposed street alignment fronting on city parks.
Comments:
(e) Streets abutting a park shall be built in accordance with the thoroughfare plan and the standards of this
ordinance; however, the City may require any residential street built adjacent to a park to be constructed to
collector width to ensure access and prevent traffic congestion. The developer may request oversize
participation in such an instance.
Comments:
Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends acceptance of fee versus land, due to the small
land requirement for this subdivision. This plat was previously reviewed on April 9, 2002. At that time
it was platted with twenty -four (24) lots.
Section 10 -G: Approval:
Parks and Recreation Advisory
Board: Approved at the regular meeting of May 13, 2003.
