Park & Recreation Commission Minutes July 10, 2002 Page 4 e 9.B.2. Preliminary Plat - Twin Lakes Crossing, Case No. P 02-05 (revised) Ms. McPherson presented the revised preliminary plat of Twin Lakes Crossing. The plat has been revised due to the review of the proposal by the Wetland Technical Evaluation Panel. The original proposal included 286 lots on 100 acres. The revised proposal includes 255 lots on the 100 acres. The revision includes two park areas; Oudot A (4.46 acres) and Oudot B (2.05 acres) located on the westerly edge of the property. The recommendation from the Corrunission in May was to have 6 acres at the end of Street A for parkland and a trail to Oudot K and to have privately owned tot-lots in the multi-family portion of the development. Ms. McPherson informed the Corrunission that staff has concerns that out of the 2.05 acres of Oudot B, only about 1 acre would be usable because Oudot B is adjacent to a wetland complex and has slopes that would be unusable. The location of Oudot B is also troublesome and does not provide good street access. There is a 66-foot wide access point from Smith Drive and a smaller access point from Street D. Staff recommends that the if the Corrunission is interested in Oudot B that the small access point from Street D be eliminated as it is not useful for park purposes. Staff would like the Corrunission to review its previous recommendation as well as the revised proposal and either accept the revised proposal or affirm their original decision of May 8, 2002. e The Commission affirmed its original recommendation of May 8, 2002, to accept six acres of land dedication with the remainder in cash dedication with the condition that two tot lots are placed near the multi-family areas of the development and that a second trail connection to Oudot K is provided 9.B.3. Administrative Subdivision - James & Kim Schuweiler, Case No. AS 02-08 The subject property is located at the southwest comer of the intersection of County Roads 79 and 32. The property is located in the Al District, which requires a 10-acres lot minimum for subdivisions. There is an existing single-family home, an attached garage, and a detached shed currendy located on the property. The applicants proposal is to subdivide the approximately 20.79 acres into two parcels. Parcel A would be 10 acres and Parcel B would be 10.79 acres. The property is located outside of any park service area, therefore staff recommends cash dedication. COMMISSIONER SLADEK MOVED TO ACCEPT CASH DEDICATION FOR ONE LOT. COMMISSIONER POLSTON-HORK SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION CARRIED 8-0. 9.C.1.
