Action Requested
No action required. Staff will need more financial information from the Home Owners Association
before a decision can be recommended.
Background /Discussion
Staff was approached by the Windsor Park 3' Addition Home Owners Association (HOA) to open
dialogue for transferring their park property to the city. They feel that the property would be a nice asset
for the city and requested that this become a Commission agenda item for the September 11 meeting.
While it is currently a private park, it has become a popular destination for people living outside the
HOA. These users are often the cause for additional repairs and maintenance to the park, which have
become an unwelcome burden to the association.
The park features a small Landscape Structures playground, swing set, riders, benches and a3/4 sized
asphalt basketball court. The park is fully irrigated. The development has 88 total lots with 77 homes.
The neighborhood park in the center of the development was built, developed and improved by the
original developer and the HOA. In the past, the HOA did wok with staff to donate the section of trail
parallel to County Road 33 /Ranch Road.
Members of the HOA are expected to attend the discussion. Staff inspected portions of the park and
plan to make a short presentation on the parks features and conditions at the September 11 meeting.
Financial Impact
No estimates have been calculated for the costs to transfer ownership and maintenance. This will need to
be done later if the Commission recommends pursuing city ownership of this park.
The final approval of costs including transfer of ownership will be the final decision of City Council
