PARK DEDICATION FOR UNITED PROPERTIES PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT NEAR LANGTON LAKE PARK John Winston, an attorney for the Partridge Family (property owners) in attendance with members of the Partridge Family. Mr. Winston spoke on the perception that the park dedication fee and/or land dedication will be coming from the developer when, based on Mr. Winston's presentation, the dedication is the responsibility of the family. The family is questioning the recommended Park Dedication Fee referencing the addition of the roadway, pathway and other land uses associated with the project. Mr. Winston asked the commission to consider waving the Park Dedication Fee on this project based on the other public use improvements that will be made to the property. Commission Recommendation: Motion by Willmus, second by Kamrath. Commission recommends to the Council that the City accept the $2000 per unit park dedication fee for the United Properties development. Commission discussion followed. Pederson asked for background information on the park dedication process. Brokke explained that it is not the place of the Commission to wave the fee or deviate from policy, that responsibility lies with the City Council. Winston responded that the family would be remiss if they did not bring this request to the Commission's attention. Motion passed unanimously 4. REVIEW/FOLLOW UP TO JOINT CITY COUNCIL/PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING Johnson and Willmus briefed the commission in their discussions and communications with the Council.
