<br />Park Dedication
<br />
<br />*'
<br />
<br />The Roseville Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan has shown a neighborhood park in
<br />this area since 1979. The School District has proposed an 8.3 acre park in the northwest
<br />section of their site. The Roseville Parks Commission reviewed this proposal and has
<br />indicated that they would like the park dedication requirement for this project to be a land
<br />contribution and agreed with the general location in the applicants concept plan. It should
<br />be pointed out that this area contains a delineated wetland which is the lowest point on the
<br />property. As of this writing, engineers are currently working on the design for a NURP
<br />pond to protect this wetland along with creating additional ponding capacity in the park
<br />areas to temporarily store water during significant rain fall events. At this point, the
<br />impact on the usability of the park during a significant rain event, has not been established.
<br />Two issues are at stake here, a usable park to serve the area as well as a proper stonn
<br />drainage system. The School District has indicated that should the ponding requirements

<br />they would satisfy their park dedication requirements on a cash in lieu ofland basis. State
<br />Statutes give cities the option for land dedication or cash contribution.

<br />Preliplinary PlatfFinal Plat
<br />
<br />Subdivision approval in the City ofRoseville involves a two step process. Preliminary plat
<br />approval and final plat approval. Preliminary plats are reviewed by the Planning
<br />Commission and their recommendation is forwarded to the City Councii for consideration.
<br />Following City Council action on a preliminary plat, the Council conducts a hearing on the
<br />final plat. The final plat incorporates all changes or modifications required by the City
<br />Council at the time of preliminary phit review. The subdivision ordinance ofthe Roseville
<br />City Code, calls out necessary data that should be shown on a preliminary plat. This
<br />information ranges ITom the proposed name of the subdivision and the streets within it to
<br />the names of the owners or subdividers having control of the land to street design
<br />information, utility information, layout numbers and dimensions of lots, necessary
<br />easements for utilities and drainage, topographic data, as well as access point to public
<br />lands and parks, The preliminary plat submitted with the application package needs to
