AUG-19-99 01 :49 PM DYNAMICS DESIGN and LAND 6124418604 P. 02 • August 17, 1999 Ms. Michele McPherson, Director of Planning Park Board Members City of Elk River Re: Proposed Plat of"WINDSOR PARK" Park Dedication and Common Open Space Dear Ms. McPherson and Park Board Members, We are writing this letter to express our intentions regarding Park Land and Open Space in our proposed plat of"WINDSOR PARK" (attached) and to initiate some direction from the city. It has been our intention to deed the Central Park area to the city as Park Land for passive recreational purposes. The Park would be approximately eleven and eight tenths (11 8/10ths) acres in size. We have looked at Trails throughout the Central Park area. But, we have also considered the option of sidewalks separated from the street section by boulevard on the same side as the homes. This option would be instead of trails in the park. Our wish would be that the park remain wooded with the underbrush removed. • The only trees that would be removed would be fallen,diseased, or damaged. (the same would apply as part of the Tree Preservation Plan for the individual lots.) Park Benches and a Gazebo within the Central Park area could be a possibility. We would like to have the area between the homes and County Road No. 1 owned by the WINDSOR PARK Homeowners Association as Common Space with a conservation easement. This area would be utilized in part as Community Gardens with an irrigation well and Community Sewage Treatment elsewhere. Trails in the Common Space area would connect the Central Park area to the Community Gardens and to County Road No. 1. We are open to suggestions that will enhance the living environment for the homeowners in this Common Interest Community. Respect lly 99,42.480 Marlon Glines Dynamics, Lamm, & Dehrer •
