Regular City Council Meeting Monday,May 23, 2011 Page 9 At the request of Councilmember Willmus, Mr. Trudgeon briefly reviewed Land Trust Agreements, with the Trust retaining a 99-year ground lease and the home- owner retaining 25% of the profits upon sale and the Trust retaining 75% to keep the home affordable for future owners.

Parks and Recreation Master Plan Presentation Parks and Recreation Commission Chair and Citizen Organizing Team (COT) Chair Jason Etten introduced and Parks and Recreation Commission member and Citizen Co-Lead for the Community Organizations and Facilities Work Group No. 9, Ms. Gale Pederson, to provide a brief update specific to her Work Group.
