The Parks and Recreation Commission reviewed this request at their August 8,2018 meeting. The <br /> commission wanted staff to review where a trail easement could be located and if a dog park would be feasible <br /> on the subject parcel. <br /> Dog Park <br /> Again,the intent of the EDA transferring the property was for passive open space and future trail <br /> development. Due to the intended use of the property,the lack of pedestrian infrastructure to the property, <br /> and lack of any public parking,a dog park would not benefit the community in this location. <br /> Easement <br /> In order to prevent the encumbrance of an easement on a possible sign location for the church, staff <br /> recommends no easement be placed along the northern edge of the subject area. The Master Trail Plan does <br /> not show any trail connections to or from the city parcel. In the southern portion of the whole parcel is a dry <br /> upland area approximately 4 acres in size. It is surrounded by wetlands covering a majority of this site. <br /> Providing a 30 wide easement along the western edge of the subject area does not seem to be beneficial to the <br /> city as it would lead into a large wetland complex. Staff recommends a trail easement,outside of wetlands,be <br /> provided from 193rd to the four acre parcel. This can be seen on the attached easement document. <br /> Attachments <br /> • Location Map <br /> • Proposed Easement Exhibit <br /> • EDA Minutes dated February 12,2007 <br /> • EDA memo dated February 9,2007 <br /> • Letter from Abiding Savior Lutheran Church <br />
