Development plans for the area west of Long Lake
Mr. Russell gave a presentation of preliminary plans for development of
the annexation area west of Long Lake. The plans are the result of
discussions between city staff and the developers, Contractor Property
Developers Co. and Pemton Land Co. Mr. Russell noted that the city's
comprehensive plan is the policy basis for specific direction and
development review. Issues pertinent to the park areas within the
proposed development sites are those concerning park locations, their
relationship to the developed area, including Rutherford Elementary
School, and the proposed trail along Long Lake.
The Park Board is asked for its input regarding: a) if the proposed
development "makes sense" for the area; and b) if there should be public
access to the lake. Other specific areas of needed input were discussed
later in the presentations: design of the proposed trail along the lake (one
. path vs. two-path width to accommodate slower and faster traffic) and
the means of access to the small island park area.
Approval of minutes The minutes of the Aug. 25, 1997, were approved,
with the correction of a typo on the bottom line of page 1 ("listed" to
"listened").
.
Mr. Junker called the meeting to order at 7: 10 p.m.
Prior to the regular meeting, several members, with Tim Thomsen, toured
city parks and other property (Meadowlark Park, Sunrise Park, the Rivard
property and possible fishing pier site at McKusick Lake). Mr. Thomsen
explained recent developments and future plans for the sites.

LiOC.LaJ<e Arena lease agreement for 1997-98
Members had received a copy of the lease agreement which had been
approved by the City Council, subject to the Park Board's review and
concurrence, according to City Coordinator Nile Kriesel. Ms. Amrein
questioned the restrictive discrimination words in paragraph 6 (only
"race, color, or creed" are noted) and the incorrect name of the Park Board
in paragraph 6 ("Stillwater Recreation Commission). Mr. Wolff moved,
seconded by Mr. Peterson, to concur with the city Council's approval of the
lease, on condition that the City Attorney address the issues regarding the
discrimination specifications and the correction of the Board's title.
Motion passed.
The developers will be meeting with neighbors on Oct. 1.
Discussion centered on a variety of issues. Mr. Wolff expressed his
concern that the entire development area did not address the recreational
needs of young people. Mr. Fontaine and Mr. Russell both noted the
topography of the land to the west of the Staloch farm is more conducive
to ball fields, etc., because it is flatter land. This is an area slated for
future development. It also was noted by several people that the new
elementary school on the northern edge of the property is specifically
designed to enhance and encourage community recreation and partnership
with the neighborhood.
.
Mr. Herbst of Pemton Land Co. presented plans for development of the
Staloch property, located just south of the Newman property. A sizable
portion of an oak savannah forest is preserved as a nature area along the
northeast border of the site. The shoreline trail and roads interconnect to
the development to the north. Several wetlands are preserved. A tot lot is
located on the site. The site will accommodate 150 homes.
. Mr. Putnam of Contractor Property Developers Co presented plans for
developing the Newman property. The plan is based on a neighborhood
concept with regards to streets and housing. Smaller scale parks, in
addition to several larger open space parks, are incorporated within the
development. A commercial site is located on the northwest corner of the
property. A small island is to be kept as parkland. A recreational trail runs
along the shoreline, connecting to other areas of the site. The site will
accommodate 350 homes.

acting recording secretary
Mr. Wolff moved, seconded by Mr. McGarry, to adjourn the meeting at 9:20
p.m.
~
Mr. Peterson inquired bout skateboarding issues on city property, such as
the parking lot by Gannon's at Owens and Laurel streets. The city is
looking into insurance issues regarding liability of private equipment
(ramps, jumps, etc.) being used on public property.
Mr. Thomsen reported that about $9,000 was realized from the sale of the
freon from Lily Lake Arena.
Mr. Thomsen and Mr. Cummings stated the 1 998 capital budget was not yet
. finalized and that discussion is continuing among staff and the City
Council. It is hoped that $600,000 will remain in the budget for land
acquisition.

Attachments.
The planning commission has scheduled a meeting to consider the expansion area
proposal for November 24, 1997. Your comments on the parks and trail elements of
development plans would be considered by the planning commission at that meeting.
I have also enclosed the development plans for the Pemton Property and CUD property
(Cudwill will be available at meeting time). I will attend the meeting. The parks board
can discuss the parks and trails policy, dedication requirements and proposed
improvement at meeting time.
At Monday's meeting, the parks board can review the existing city parks policy. Park
dedication is required during the subdivision review and approval process based on the
dedication policy guided by the comprehensive plan. Other issues the board may want
. to consider is which parks are city parks regarding development and maintenance and
which parks are more development oriented and maintained by the development.
To provide the parks board with existing city parks and trails policy for the expansion
area, section of the comprehensive plan for the expansion area is enclosed. Beyond
the parks and trailway policy, other policy areas of the comprehensive plan regarding
protection of natural resources (wetlands, sloped areas and shoreland) provide
direction for specific area parks planning and development. The city's park dedication
policy is also enclosed.

F. To be eligible for park dedication credit, land dedication is to be located outside of
drainways, flood plains or ponding areas after the site has been developed. Grades
exceeding 12 percent or that are unsuitable for park development may be considered
for partial dedication. Absent unusual conditions, storm water drainage areas and
holding areas or ponds shall not be considered wetlands.
However, where wetlands have been determined to have a park function by the Parks
and Recreation Board, credit may be given at a rate of 25 percent of the pond or
holding area and adjoining land areas below the high water level; a minimum of70
percent of land above the high water mark or 100 year flood plain shall be dedicated
before pond or holding area credit is granted. In addition, developers must also
comply with City dedication policies relating to wetland dedication.
Where subdividers and developers ofland provide significant amenities such as, but .
not limited to swimming pools, tennis courts, or ball fields, within the development
for the benefit of those residing or working therein, and where, in the judgement of
the Parks and Recreation Board, the amenities significantly reduce the demands for
public recreational facilities to serve the development, the Community Development
Director may recommend to the Parks and Recreation Board that the amount of land
to be dedicated for park, playground and public open space (or cash contribution in
lieu of dedication) be reduced by an amount not to exceed 50 percent of the amount

.
A. The amount of land which could be required in accordance with Section 3 shall be
calculated.
The city may require the subdivider or developer to make a combination cash and land
dedication pursuant to the following formula:
7. COMBINATION LAND AND CASH DEDICATION:
Single Family Residential $725 per unit
. Duplexes $500 per unit
Townhomes $500 per unit
Multifamily $500 per unit
If, at the option of the City upon review and recommendation of the Parks and Recreation
Board, it is determined that a cash payment in lieu of land dedication shall be made, the cash
shall be placed in a special fund for Parks and Recreation use and deposited by the developer
with the City prior to final plat approval.
The in lieu park fee shall be based on the following guidelines:
6. CASH PAYMENT IN LIEU OF DEDICATION, RESIDENTIAL:
calculated under paragraph 2 above.
The City, upon review, may determine that the developer shall create and maintain
some form of on-site recreation use by the site residents such as tot lots and open
play space. This requirement may be in addition to the land or cash dedication
requirement.
G.
.
In those cases where the City does not require park or open space within a development, the
City shall require payment of fees in lieu of land dedication in an amount equal to the net
land area required in Section 3 above. Cash shall be contributed at the time of approval of
each final plat or at the time of site plan or building permit approval as determined by the
City.
A credit of up to 25 percent of the required dedication may be allowed by the City Council

Subdividers and developers of commercialJindustrialland, including commercial/industrial
portions of Planned Developments, shall be required at the time the site plan is approved and

City according to the guidelines set forth in Section 3 of this policy.
9. CASH PAYMENT IN LIEU OF DEDICATION, COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL:
C. The balance arrived at in subparagraph (B) above, shall be converted into a cash
contribution in lieu of land dedication pursuant to a standard formula established by
the city, which formula takes into consideration such things as, but not necessarily
