Discussion of Parkland Dedication Ordinance and related process: Eric Ploeger discussed the process that is currently underway to update the Parkland Dedication Ordinance (see attached PowerPoint presentation). He said that two Council Strategic Issues deal with park accessibility and the process that the City goes through to accept park land. Both Parks and Recreation and Development Services staff have been working on new internal procedures related to how the City accepts park land and how it gets the information to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board so that they can make informed recommendations. These new procedures will require developers to submit clearer and more concise information so that the two Departments can put it into a packet that is easily understandable for the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board. Included in the packet will be information related to floodplain location and the exact number of proposed dwelling units. Eric said that a meeting has been scheduled with City staff and local developers to review possible changes to the ordinance and to get input from the development community. The meeting will be held on Friday, September 21, 2001. Eric added that suggestions will also be gathered from City staff, the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, and local developers concerning suggested changes to the ordinance. Those suggestions will be brought back to the Board for their recommendation to the City Council. The ordinance is also scheduled to be brought back to the Planning and Zoning Commission in January 2002 for approval and later to the City Council in February 2002 for final approval. The dedication requirements that are currently being reviewed are the - Land dedication or the fee in lieu of land dedication; and - Fee for development cost or development in lieu of the fee for development cost. Eric said that there are some suggested changes to the ordinance that pertain to fees. One suggestion is to increase the multi-family dedication requirement in order to gain more property or to receive a higher cash amount for each dwelling unit. The reason for this suggested increase is due to the fact that the 2000 census figures show an increase in the density of the multi-family housing—single family has basically not changed. Another suggestion is to increase the development fee with an emphasis on intergenerational park features, which would mean adding additional amenities to include a wider age range of neighborhood park users. There are also several suggested changes to the ordinance that pertain to the language. One suggestion relates to floodplain and would state that when the dedication is below five acres, no floodplain or floodable land would be accepted as part of the required dedication. Additional floodable land will be accepted on a case-by-case basis. Another suggestion relates to detention/retention facilities. It states that detention/retention areas will not be accepted as part of the required dedication, but only in addition to required dedication. This change to the ordinance would require that the Joint Meeting Parks&Recreation Advisoly Board and Planning and Zoning Commission Thursday,September 20,2001 Page 2 of 5 detention or retention area design would have to be approved by City staff and meet the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board's policy concerning detention/retention area design. In other words, if a developer wishes to dedicate a detention or retention facility, the facility would have to be over-and-above the required dedication. Eric added that City staff is currently working on design criteria to better control the type of detention/retention facilities that the City will accept. Another suggestion relates to the fee in lieu of land dedication and the development fee. It states that the land fee and the development fee could be spent on either category and could be used for future park development. Eric referred to a handout, which had a listing of two recent real estate appraisal listings from the City's Land Agent, Mark McAuliffe (see attachment). One listing contained seven appraisals for rural areas on the easterly line of State Highway 6, north of Greens Prairie Road, in College Station (average sales price is $14,580). The other listing contained eight appraisals for land that is closer to College Station, on the northerly line of Krenek Tap Road, west of State Highway 6 (average sales price is $68,444). He said that at this time, there is not a recommendation for the land fee, but the possibility of varying the fee from zone to zone had been discussed with the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board. Chairman Nichols said that the possibility of having a variable fee would have to be researched to justify the certain differentials between the zones. Steve Beachy said that it may be difficult to come up with a formula and to dete ine the appraisals between the zones. Commissioner Kaiser asked what the percentages of the development cost residents are required to pay for a neighborhood park. Jim Callaway responded that the ordinance was originally set up to recover 100% of the development cost, but it may be less than that. Commissioner Kaiser stated that there should be a policy question concerning the fact that the development costs fluctuate from zone to zone. Chairman Floyd asked the members of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board what they felt the role of the Planning and Zoning Commission is in te s of park land dedication. Steve said that the current process that staff and the appointed committees have needs to be improved upon. City staff will try to obtain more information from developers in the early stages of development in order to give this information to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board for them to make a more educated decision. Chairman Nichols stated that continued dialogue with the Planning and Zoning Commission, future clarification concerning what type of park land the City will accept, and the improvement of the development process will aid in any future decisions the Board has to make. Chairman Floyd stated that it is important for the City Council to know that the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board are now "on the same page." Steve added that staff is creating a checklist to include in the meeting packets that will provide information concerning upcoming development to aid in making future park land dedication decisions. Commissioner Kaiser said that park land dedication is a reactive approach. He asked if the question of the possibility of buying land prior to development had ever been discussed. Steve said that there are two ways that this topic has been approached. One Joint Meeting Parks&Recreation Advisory Board and Planning and Zoning Commission Thursday,September 20,2001 Page 3 o[5 way is to buy land prior to development and reimburse the land through the dedication process. Another way is to designate an area of reserve and buy into that reserve as dedication occurs. 2. Discussion regarding Accessibility for Parks: Steve said that a study was conducted to look at the accessibility of all of the parks in College Station per park zone using GIS (see attached PowerPoint presentation). The report showed that the park zones have a great degree of variance as to accessibility to parks. The good news from the report is that overall, the City has a good percentage of the population being served. The bad news is that there are places in the City that are not being served. Among the options to improve the number of people being served is to obtain more parks and to make linkages through existing parks. The bottom line is that once park sites are located, the key is to make sure that the streets and pedestrian pathways provide linkages to other parks. Sabine Kuenzel added that the topic of park accessibility had been discussed during the joint meeting with the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council on July 11, 2001. Currently, the City's Subdivision Regulations encourage linkages at the backs of cul-de-sacs. The Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) Consultant was given direction to tighten up the language in the Parkland Dedication Ordinance to make these types of linkages a requirement. Jim said that a problem that the Development Services staff and the Planning and Zoning Commission have faced in the past is the lack of knowledge as to where future parks will be located, particularly in smaller subdivisions. However, over the years, staff have had better communication with developers concerning linkages. He added that the although the City Council did not appear in favor of acquiring land prior to development, they did appear interested in planning better park locations prior to development. Steve said that the Council has also directed staff to come up with some kind of positive incentive to encourage developers to dedicate better quality park land. Commissioner Trapani asked if potential park property has been identified that would aid the Development Services staff and the Planning and Zoning Commission in making decisions when they are presented with plats for development. Steve responded that the Recreation, Park, and Open Space Master Plan only identifies park needs by zone. Chai an Nichols suggested having a rule that would state that whenever the School District buys property, the City would buy property next to it. 3. Discussion of common goals and areas of interest: Chairman Nichols referred to the Board's recommended goals and objectives (see attachment) and explained the process that the Board goes through to develop them. Steve added that the goals and objectives would also be presented to the City Council for their approval. Jim referred to the document that listed potential areas of common interest and possible goal setting with the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board (see attachment). 4. Discussion of the Unified Development Ordinance and how it pertains to the definition of Open Space: The Unified Development Ordinance will contain all of the City's development ordinances and regulations combined into one document. Jim said that the new UDO would provide a definition of open space and have a requirement that a certain percentage of development be devoted to it. Sabine added that a requirement of Joint Meeting Parks&Recreation Advisoiy Board and Planning and Zoning Commission Thursday,September 20,2001 Page 4 of 5 approximately 10-20% of the development sites would be devoted to open space. She added that commercial sites might have some difficulty meeting the new requirement. 5. Adjourn: Commissioner Trapani made a motion to adjourn. Commissioner Kaiser seconded the motion. Advisory Board member Bill Davis made a motion to adjourn. Advisory Board member Farnsworth seconded the motion. All were in favor, and the meeting adjourned at 6:30 p.m. Approved—Richard Floyd Date Planning and Zoning Commission Chairman Approved—John Nichols Date Parks and Recreation Advisory Board Chairman Joint Meeting Parks&Recreation Advisory Board and Planning and Zoning Commission Thursday,September 20,2001 Page 5 of 5 City of College Station PARKLAND DEDICATION ORDINANCE PARKLAND DEDICATION ORDINANCE 0mAdop#e - 1981 (wevised - 1998 w3-Year Review PARKLAND DEDICATION ORDINANCE, w3 Basic Criteria .fee per unit to be spent within certain zones within a certain time frame 1 PARKLAND DEDICATION ORDINANCE Purpose Fee/ DedicationRequired PriorDedication Right to Refund Plan Refer Specific Criteria Review of Fees PARKLAND DEDICATION ORDINANCE wDedication Requirement ze,Specific Criteria forAcceptance and Development DEDICATION REQUIREMENT zwEither Landor Fee In Lieu Land zafee for Development Cost or Development In i LAND DEDICATION METHODOLOGY wCalciJiation Current Service Level •3.5 acre neigh.parkland 11,000 pop. 2.01 PP ®SF 2.13 PPH MF zwRequirement acre er 101_. its acre per 134 its FEE IN LIEU OF LAND DEDICATION za,Calculationon: Acquisition cost®$15,000/acre za,Recit,iirement • 1 , /101 DU = I Unit O MF $15,000/134 DU =$112/Unit DEVELOPMENT FEE zvAverage Dev.

Does talk about adjacency to schools and majority of users but not much more related to location. • If plan is inadequate then developers, Commission, Parks Board in ad hoc planning mode on case by case basis. • Improving connections between parks and residential areas • Review dedication ordinance to provide language whereby P&Z can require this connectivity in response to development. • Can also be implemented through the greenways program • Can be done with greenway/trail connections and/or sidewalk connections • Improving communication between Parks Board and P&Z. • When Parks Board reviews G&O of Parks Master Plan, involve P&Z • Be sure G&O are in sync with comprehensive plan or suggest plan amendments • Inform P&Z of facility needs and priorities to foster support City of College Station Parks and Recreation Advisory Board Fiscal Year 2002 Goals and Objectives (not prioritized) ***Draft*** O Establish policies and standards for re-appraisal of existing parks, facilities, and services offered by the Department o Review quarterly reports on park maintenance standards and develop recommendations regarding levels of service.

Box 9960 • College Station, Texas 77842 APPOINTED TO on (Board/Co i53 ssion/Co ittee) (Date) MEMO ' A NDUM TO: Parks and Recreation Advisory Board FROM: Steve Beachy, Director of Parks and Recreation DATE: September 11, 2001 SUBJECT: Response to Parks and Recreation Advisory Board's Recommendations to Council® I have prepared a brief update, as requested, concerning the response to the Advisory Board's memo to the City Council in May. This memo outlined four (4) major areas of concern, along with twelve (12) priority budget issues. The following actions have been taken: 1. Neighborhood Park Land Acquisition Issue: The Advisory Board requested funds to acquire neighborhood park sites prior to development. Response: The City Council was not in favor of committing funds to acquire land for neighborhood parks in advance of development; However, Council has established a Strategic Issue related to the creation of incentives to encourage developers to provide better park sites. Funds in the amount of$200,000 have been included in the Fiscal Year 2002 budget request to support this process. Potential ideas for incentives will be discussed with developers and the Advisory Board this fall. The Advisory Board will discuss and develop recommendations for incentives at the December meeting. The recommendations will be presented to the City Council in February 2002. Page 1 of 4 2. Playground Safety— Issue: The Advisory Board requested an additional $200,000 to fund playground replacements in Fiscal Year 2002, and that an additional $50,000 be included annually thereafter. Response: In Fiscal Year 2001, four (4) playgrounds were replaced utilizing a combination of bond funds and departmental replacement funds. The Gabbard Park playground replacement is under contract and will be completed this fall. Playground Funding Source Amount Status Brothers Pond '98 Bond $26,087 Complete Merry Oaks Replacement Account $23,843 Complete Lemon Tree '98 Bond $21,000 Complete Raintree '98 Bond $28,287 Complete Gabbard Replacement Account $34,124 Under Contract Total $204,271 The City Council is considering the addition of$25,000 per year to the existing replacement account for the Fiscal Year 2002 budget. Following the Gabbard playground replacement, Georgie K. Fitch and Hensel Park playgrounds are scheduled for replacement in Fiscal Year 2002. These playgrounds are the next priority. 3. Skateboard Park Issue: The Advisory Board requested the allocation of additional funds to construct and operate a skateboard facility. Response: Council established the preparation of a feasibility report on a skateboard park as a Strategic Issue. The report will include a survey of what other cities are doing as well as the development of recommendations for construction, operation, maintenance, and funding of the facility. The report will be presented to the Advisory Board in December. Also, the development may be included in a future CIP program based upon these recommendations and Council direction. 4® Greenways Plan Issue: The Advisory Board recommends the creation of a citizen advisory committee for the Greenway Plan. Page 2 of 4 Response: Council has not created a separate committee. The staff Greenways Coordinator continues to work closely with the Brazos Greenways Council and will provide an update at the October Advisory Board meeting. Additional Goals and Priority Budget Issues: Urban Forest Management Plan: A grant application has been approved by the Texas Forest Service in the amount of $10,000. An additional $20,000 has been requested in the Fiscal Year 2002 budget. This is a City Council Strategic Issue and the report is scheduled to be given to the Council in May 2002. 30/60 Corridor: The City Council approved the 30/60 Corridor Plan with the Master Plan of Veterans Park and Athletic Complex intact. No additional north/south roads were permitted in or adjacent to the park. Greenways Oversight Committee: Comments same as previously stated. Park Maintenance Standards Plan: The plan was approved by the City Council and will be implemented over a multi-year period. This is a Council Strategic Issue and quarterly inspections and reports will begin in the fall of 2001. Intergenerational Parks: The City Council received and approved the report this spring. Implementation will occur through the on-going CIP process. Some of the projects that will include intergenerational features are Gabbard and Brison Parks improvements. This is a long- term issue. Skateboard Park: Comments same as previously stated. Land Acquisition: Comments same as previously stated. Bee Creek Backstops/Batting Cages: No action at this point. Staff will develop cost estimates and a site analysis, and report back to the Advisory Board. Senior Programs: This is a City Council Strategic Issue. The fall semester Eisenhower Leadership Development Program will assign this as a follow-up project. A survey of local seniors will be conducted. The results will be presented to the City Council in November. Page 3 of 4 Park Access Plan: This issue will be discussed with the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board and the Planning and Zoning Commission as a concern at the joint meeting on September 20, 2001. Park Land Dedication Ordinance: The ordinance will be revised over the next 3-4 months. The staff is working on this issue and will meet with developers in September. Additional review with the Advisory Board and the Planning and Zoning Commission will occur prior to the presentation to the City Council in February 2002. This is a City Council Strategic Issue.
