Open Forum <br />Deb and Roger Whiteoak, 20927 Elk Lake Road NW - indicated when their final <br />plat request was approved by the City Council in October they were unaware it <br />contained recommendations from the Parks and Recreation Cormilission for Park <br />Dedication Fees and an easement. The VAincoaks stated they are confused on why <br />the easement is being requested because the Parks Master Plan does not include a <br />trail on their side of the road. They outlined their position as described in their <br />handout this evening. <br />Mr. Carlton explained 20 -feet is the standard trail easement width but this property <br />has slopes which creates an unknown on how much easement will be necessary to <br />complete the trail. He stated this request has already been approved by the Parks and <br />Recreation Commission and City Council and suggested the Whiteoaks submit a new <br />application and go back through the process if they are unhappy with the conditions. <br />Mr. and Mrs. Whiteoak indicated they would be willing to submit a new application <br />if necessary. Council consensus was to waive the application fee. <br />Mayor Dietz informed the Whiteoaks it would be helpful for them to attend the <br />Parks and Recreation Commission meeting when this is discussed. Ms. Whiteoak <br />admitted they were naive to the process but have learned a lot. <br />roe[et1 ei <br />hVIATUR� <br />
