Mr. Hasek reviewed the drainage flow on the site. The hockey rink will be 3 feet lower than the street to reduce its impact on surrounding neighbors. He explained why a sliding hill was not included in the plan. Mr. Hasek indicated the 360 acre contains 101 acres of wetlands. He felt the proportion of wetlands and trees in the park was comparable to the wetands and trees on the entire site. Mr. Hasek reviewed changes made in the park since the Park and Recreation Commissioners' last review of the project. The lots which were previously located south of the park have been relocated to the west with an additional cul de sac, a lot added to the east, the hockey rink and soccer field have been relocated, and the trail connection to the park has moved to line up with the sidewalk to the Trott Brook corridor. It was the consensus of the Commissioners to eliminate the tennis court at this time due to the cost, and use the court for basketball only. Mr. Hasek noted the fields and basketball court could be flooded for skating. • Discussion followed regarding the wetlands. Mr. Hasek noted the large wetland area is walkable and is not wet most of the year and canary reed grass is growing there. He added that the City is considering this area for a regional storm water ponding site. Some of the Commissioners expressed concern that the size of the ponding area not be increased. Mr. Hasek reviewed the proposed trails and sidewalks. A 60' road right of way will be maintained with a 25' setback for homes on the cul de sacs. A 7' widened area along the both sides of the roadway will be included for biking. A sidewalk will be located on one side of the street with a grassy area between the street and sidewalk. There will be a county trail along the north side of County Road 12 and a proposed trail along Trott Brook. Commissioner Anderson requested that staff ensure the grading in the park will accommodate skating. Steve Wensman explained the proposed trail along Trott Brook. He noted this trail will eventually connect with County Road 12 through Trott Brook Farms development. There also may be a possibility of a trail linkage to the north. g1'. , .j t1irWBit�`iciuded iriPFiae. :ofie_deve°ipmef_.,.s It was the unanimous consensus of the Commissioners to accept the following as park dedication requirements for the Trott Brook Farms plat: • t7at? + edic • • .. ,.•I• t acr=e- 15raan , 6 acresf trail alone Tro ookeS�5' ct: �'cc sh Or'park-improv
