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.
Com ments:
(c) Sites should not be severely sloped or have unusual topography which would render the land unusable for
organized recreational activities.
Comments:
(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
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:
(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: Acceptance of the fee in lieu of land.
