7.1 PRSR 06-12-2019 The Elk River Vision A welcoming community with revolutionary and spirited resourcefulness, exceptional service, and community engagement that encourages and inspires prosperity Request for Action To Parks and Recreation Commission Item Number 7.1 Agenda Section Action Items Meeting Date June 12, 2019 Prepared by Steve Benoit, Recreation Manager Item Description Park Dedication – Hilltop Woods Estates Second Addition Reviewed by Chris Leeseberg, Senior Planner Reviewed by Michael Hecker, Parks and Recreation Director Action Requested Recommend, by motion, park dedication for the plat of Hilltop Woods Estates Second Addition be paid for one (1) dwelling unit at the rate applicable when the subdivision is released for recording. (This will be $1,425.93/lot at the 2019 low-density rate) Background/Discussion The subject property is located at the end of Victoria Drive (Figure 1) and is 20.16 acres. The proposed plat will consist of one new buildable lot and one existing lot. Right-of-way is being platted through the middle of the subject property for a north/south transportation connection and half of a right-of-way (30 feet) is being platted along the north side of the subject property providing an east/west transportation corridor for future development in the area. Parks and Recreation Commission 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 does not meet this criteria, therefore staff recommends dedication be paid in the form of cash. Master Trail Plan A conceptual connection is shown on the master trail plan that just touches the northeast corner of the subject property. This connection can be reviewed when the parcel to the north develops. It is anticipated this desired trail connection/easement can occur with the other 30 feet of right-of-way in the future.
