Action Requested
Recommend,by motion,park dedication requirements for the Miske Meadows development
modification to be satisfied with a combination of cash and land.
Background/Discussion
Paxmar is proposing to modify their previous approvals for the Miske Meadows subdivision. Changes
include the addition of 37 acres to the preliminary plat,modifications to the road network,and moving
the land area to be dedicated for park dedication purposes.The road changes provide better east-west
transportation options for residents and reduce developer costs related to the excavation for public
utilities.The proposed subdivision includes approximately 375 single-family lots.
The park area under the new configuration is approximately 5.3 acres and abuts another 8.8 acres of
wetland and power line easements that will be maintained as open space,but will not qualify as park
dedication.The total green space under the new plan will be over 14 acres.
The previous preliminary plat included approximately 6 acres of land,but it did not abut additional green
space.
The original configuration was also hilly and had over 20 feet of elevation change while the new site is
relatively flat with six to eight feet of elevation change over all but a small area in the SW corner.
As with the previous approval,the park area will grow when the parcel to the south is developed.The city
does not have any proposals for the property to the south,and the land dedication will be discussed when
a development proposal is received in the future.
Staff recommends approval of the new park land configuration as the flatter site will be a better fit for
future programming needs and it abuts a large open area,giving the impression of a larger site.The land
dedication does not satisfy the entire park dedication requirements,and the remaining dedication would
be satisfied with a cash payment.The cash dedication will be approximately$1,190 per unit,but the final
cost will be calculated when a final plat is received.
The Elk River Vision
A welcoming community with revolutionary and spirited resourcefulness, exceptional A 0 / E I E o O r
service, and community engagement that encourages and inspires prosperity IrJATUREI
Parks and Recreation Master Plan
The Neighborhood Parks Service Area text in Chapter 5 of the master plan states, recreation facilities should
be developed when 300 or more households within cluster developments or on lots less than 2 acres are located within 1.5
miles of the park.The subject property meets this requirement. Therefore, staff recommends the Parks and
Recreation Commission recommend Park Dedication be in the form land and cash.
