RCA Attachment D 80 Chair Hoag added this area has lost a lot of green space in the last three years with the building of 81 the Senior Housing residences near this site. He also noted that with the additional lots the park 82 dedication land amount may be worth more than the cash value. 83 Pavek noted that the developer has done extensive research on the sites contamination. Their 84 understanding is that the contamination consists of bituminous debris that needs to be hauled away 85 to a landfill. The contamination only exists in the north 20% of the proposed Park Dedication parcel. 86 The rest of the parcel is clean with fill soils. 87 88 Commissioner Stoner motioned to recommend land per the developer’s proposal (including the 89 three extra lots to the south) contingent upon a review of soil that would show that the city could 90 utilize the land for low intensity amenities such as trails.
