13. Discussion, consideration, and possible action concerning a park land dedication request for the Spring
Creek Subdivision: Eric said that this proposed subdivision is in. Park Zone 9, and is located on the north
side of Greens prairie road, east of State Highway 6, adjacent to Woodland Hills. Eric introduced the
developer of the subdivision,, Frank Thurmond (also the developer for Woodland Hills), and Larry Wells with
the Municipal Development Group. The park land dedication for Woodland Hills was first reviewed and
approved by the Board in 1996. Several reconfigurations of the park have also been approved by the Board
since that time. Eric said that the Sprng Creek Subdivision is a completely separate subdivision, but because
there was a considerable amount of property donated over - and -above the requited dedication for Woodland
Hills, Mr. Thurmond would like consideration from the Board for that dedication to count toward the
dedication requirement for the Spring Creek Subdivision, which is .89 acres. However, Mr_ Thurmond would
still be required to gay the development fee.
Erie said that during the review of the request, there was concern about access from the proposed subdivision
to Woodland Hills Park. He added that staff is proposing that Mr. Thurmond install an access easement that
would be a rt+i*+i+++u of 20' between the two subdivisions, and would allow for bicycle and pedestrian traffic
to Woodland Hills Park, as well as serve as an emergency exit for residents in Woodland Hills. Staffhas also
requested that the easement be clearly designated as an entryway for park and emergency vehicle access only.
After some discussion, Don made a motion to accept the park land dedication requirement as being met for
the Spring Creek Subdivision with the understanding that Mr. Thurmond will install an easement that will
allow access to Woodland Hills Park Jon seconded the motion. All were in favor, and the motion passed
unanimously.
