MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Holmes seconded a motion to Approve Planning Case 11 -011 for a Preliminary and Final Plat and Master and Final PUD to Subdivide the Property at 1201 County Road E Into Two Parcels and Reuse the Existing Building As Assisted Senior Housing, Based on the Findings of Fact and Submitted Plans, Subject to the Conditions in the June 27, 2011, Report to the City Council. MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Werner seconded a motion to Add Recommendation 27 to require the Addition of Decorative Wrought Iron or other Decorative Architectural Treatments to the East Side of the Building as Approved by Staff. The motion carried unanimously (5 -0). Mayor Grant stated he would like to have the City receive the park dedication fee rather than waive this amount and assess it at a later date. Councilmember Tamble stated it would be beneficial for the City to receive these funds as part of the park dedication fee rather than having them assessed at a future date that has not been determined. Councilmember Holden stated assessing this fee is a perfect opportunity for the City to gain seed money for the B -2 streetscape project. She would like to see the City start moving on this project and these funds could be a good way to get this project going. City Attorney Filla stated the City will need to be sure the developer agrees to the method the City would like to use for this fee. This will need to be included in the development agreement and if the amount is to be assessed a date will need to be included. If the City decides to move forward with an assessment then it will need to be recorded against the property because there is no defined user for this property at this time. Mayor Grant stated the applicant is not opposed to having the amount of the park dedication fee assessed at a future date. He suggested the City collect the park dedication fee for the Park Improvement Fund and then budget this same amount for a new fund for the B -2 District streetscape project. A new fund could be created to accomplish this. Councilmember Tamble stated if the park dedication fee is collected at this time then the Park Improvement Fund will be less in the deficit.
