Memo to Park&Recreation Commission <br /> April 8, 1998 <br /> Page 2 <br /> • Review Boys and Girls Club Proposal <br /> The Boys and Girls Club are proposing to construct a facility in Lion's Park <br /> as illustrated on the attached site plan. This project is in the fundraising <br /> stage and is tentatively scheduled to begin construction later this summer. <br /> The project is required to receive a conditional use permit so this proposal <br /> will be presented to the Planning Commission and City Council. <br /> *Requested Action: The Park & Rec Commission should review the proposal <br /> and offer any comments which will be forwarded to the Planning Commission <br /> for their review at the April 28th meeting and the City Council on May 18th. <br /> Review Concept for Trott Brook Estates <br /> The Trott Brook Estates development has gone through many renditions <br /> since the Park & Rec Commission last reviewed the proposal. The latest <br /> concept that has been submitted is included in the packet for the Park & <br /> Recreation Commission's consideration. The developer, along with <br /> representatives from Westwood Engineering, will be available at the Park & <br /> Rec meeting to discuss the park issues and will, hopefully, have additional <br /> detail information regarding development of the park. This is a concept plan <br /> and a preliminary plat will need to be submitted at a later date which will be <br /> • brought back to the Park & Rec Commission prior to going to the Planning <br /> Commission. <br /> *Requested Action: Even though this is a concept plan, the Commission <br /> should give the developers a clear direction of the park desires for this <br /> development. Plans can then be prepared to incorporate the Commission's <br /> recommendations. <br /> Concept Plan for Next Park <br /> The Planning Department is prepared to continue with concept plans for <br /> various plans for various parks. If the Park & Rec Commission is satisfied <br /> with the work staff has done to this point, additional parks should be <br /> assigned for staff to review. One suggestion for the Commission to consider <br /> is having staff complete plans for those parks that may be included in a fall <br /> bond referendum. It may be an excellent opportunity to show the public the <br /> Commission's "vision" for improvement of parks and assist in gathering voter <br /> support. <br /> *Requested Action: Direct staff prepare additional concept plans for desired <br /> parks. <br /> • <br /> f:\shrdoc\council\park&rec\4-8 memo.doc <br />
