Planning Commission Meeting November 2, 1983 -2- Mr. Blais also indicated the amount of parking seems adequate to accommodate the school conversion needs. Discussion James Andre indicated the appraisal of the property to the west was approximately $37,000, which is a reasonable cost. The City is concerned that the property would, in reality, be more expensive, especially since the property owners would oppose the City's purchase of the land. In addition to the cost of the land, the acquisition of right-of-way for the road would be expensive, at a cost of $125,000. Given the opposition to and high cost of the access road at this time, there is a need for interim access from the north until access from Cleveland Avenue is provided. Mr. Andre also indicated presbyterian Homes has proposed that if the land dedicated to the City has not been developed for park use within three years, the land will revert to Presbyterian Homes' ownership. Mr. Andre indicated the City would not agree to this. Dorette Erickson, of Presbyterian Homes, indicated the future nursing wing, shown on the proposed plan, is only a concept. There has been no detailed planning done regarding the future wing. She also indicated the special use permit application is for conversion of the school building and development of the passive park area. Matson asked Presbyterian Homes whether their current proposal is the same one presented at the October meeting. Dr. Hagstrom replied that their proposal is the saI~ as presented at the October meeting. Rukavina asked whether additional parking would be needed when the western addition is built. presbyterian Homes indicated the existing parking should be close to accommodating their future needs. Wiski asked whether the area planned for western expansion could be used instead for the passive park. Presbyterian Homes responded they need to have room for future expansion of their facilities.
