Commissioner Warzecha seconds. Motion passed unanimously. CITY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REVIEW 4. i. Subdivision Code – Park Dedication Staff provided the background and history of Park Dedication in Roseville. Introduced in 1989, Park Dedication originally was managed primarily by the Community Development Department. In 2003, the Commission recommended the ordinance be updated. The update included a process to engage the Parks and Recreation Commission in the process. Park Dedication serves to assist with the funding of park improvements, land acquisition, and addresses the impact of new development/redevelopment. Park Dedication can be satisfied by land, cash or a combination of such based on the Parks and Recreation Commissions recommendation. Summary of the law:  City is allowed to adopt subdivision requirements  Park Dedication is one of the requirements – development and redevelopment  Cash can only be used for the acquisition, development, park improvements, recreation facilities, playgrounds, trails, wetland or open space based on the approved park systems plan  Land must be for park purposes  Previously subdivided property from which a park dedication has been received is exempt, provided it has the same number of lots. If number of lots increases, then park dedication per lot cash fee must apply only to the net increase  Must be buildable/usable park land – at the discretion of the city  City must have a Capital Improvement Plan and Budget  City must have a park and open space plan as part of the Comprehensive Plan All developments that are subdividing or replatted qualify for Park Dedication. Park Dedication is one piece, of many, that helps to support the Parks and Recreation System. The funds are unpredictable depending on development or redevelopment in a given year. The current process is simple, clear, and specific. Examples of Park Dedication when cash payments were received include: Walmart, Wheaton Woods, Home2 Suites & Hampton Inn, Rosedale Mall expansion, Dale Street Fire Station. Examples of Park Dedication where land was acquired include: Applewood Park and Overlook, Nature View, Owasso Hills Park, Concordia Park.
