CONSIDERATION OF MINUTES Motion was made by Committee Member LeBlanc, seconded by Committee Member Peil to approve the February 5, 2003 Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting Minutes. Ayes- 5, Nays - 0, Abstain - 1 (Peterson) Motion carried. VI. COMMITTEE BUSINESS Hunters Crossin!! 2nd Addition Recommendation Chairperson DeVine reminded the committee that this item was pulled from the last Council Agenda, after the Parks & Recreation Committee had made a recommendation, by the City Administrator for clarification. The committee looked over the information supplied in their packets from Ordinance #8 concerning sidewalks and collector roads and tried to determine whether a sidewalk was actually required. The committee felt Ordinance #8 was not very clear in regards to this. Committee Member Peterson said his concern is that the sidewalk comes from Main Street and Dupre Road by the cemetery, the whole length of Dupre Road through Pheasant Marsh and now that the city is two (2) blocks away from the park, the developer is requesting and the committee agreeing that no sidewalks be required in Hunters Crossing 2nd Addition. Committee Member Peterson feels the Parks & Recreation Committee needs to remain consistent and continue the sidewalk along Dupre Road. Council Member Lee said the city has consistently required that developments with collector streets have sidewalks. Chairperson DeVine questioned the definition of a collector street, as this is also vague within Ordinance #8. It was also questioned why Hunters Crossing 1st Addition does not have sidewalks. Apparently the ordinance was not enforced at the time, but Committee Member Peterson reported the last four (4) developments that have been done in Centerville required sidewalks be installed. Motion was made by Committee Member Peil, seconded by Chairperson DeVine to recommend to council to accept Park Dedication Fees in lieu of Land Dedication in the Hunters Crossing 2nd Addition development. All in Favor: Motion carried unanimously. Motion was made by Committee Member Peil, seconded by Committee Member Peterson to recommend to council to accept Mr. Richard Carlson's proposal for installing trails in the Hunters Crossing 2nd Addition development with one section of trail running north/south along the St. Paul Water Utility easement connecting to the existing trail running east/west on the north property line of the proposed development. A section of the trail is to have access from Dupre Road running north and south on the east side of the pond, also connecting to the existing trail on the north property line trail of the proposed development. A stub will connect the trail running along the St. Paul Water Utility easement to the southwest cul-de-sac on Beaver Pond Way. All in Favor: Motion carried unanimously. 3of6
