PARKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT
PLAN LIST – Curt McLeod, Curran-McLeod
Curt McLeod reviewed his memo and explained the impact of not including the timber park. The percentage of SDCs to be collected will be much higher if the timber park land is not included in the park inventory. He encouraged the council and commission to include the timber park in the park inventory. Mr. McLeod answered questions regarding the parkland inventory and acquisition costs.
There was discussion on changing the amounts in the list to increase some line items and add a neighborhood park line item as follows:
Increase - Wade Creek Park - $400,000
Increase - Lake Shore Trail - $300,000
Add – Timber Park - $200,000
Add – North Side Neighborhood Park – 5 acres - $600,000
Pocket Parks, the Skate Park and engineering will remain the same
Mr. McLeod also stated that there would also be a reimbursement fee for funds put into parks over the last 10 years.
The group reviewed page 58 in the park master plan
of park inventory. They discussed the
amendments above that would drive the fee up to approximately $3,000 per
SDC. They discussed what could be cut
such as timber park money to $50,000, 4 acres of the North side neighborhood
park at $500,000 and the Lake Shore Trail down to $200,000. Mr. McLeod will rework a preliminary chart
and bring it back to the group for discussion.
CM Ealy stated that a draft should be ready for the
next council and commission packet.
