Consideration and possible action to approve the parkland dedication for Highcrest Meadow. -- Kimberly
Garrett, Parks and Recreation Director
ITEM SUMMARY:
Highcrest Meadow is a proposed subdivision off of Hwy. 29 East. The area to be developed is
approximately 31 acres. There are approximately 135 lots to be developed. The developer is proposing to
pay the fee in lieu of land dedication. There are two developed public neighborhood parks in the area that
will serve this subdivision. There are future roads that will connect this subdivision to Summercrest and
University Park, both which are larger neighborhoods and have large parks. The developer is proposing to
develop a private park in the subdivision with a playground and also provide green space with soccer
goals. To ensure this happens, the planner suggested that a plat note be made regarding the private park
improvements.
It is staff's recommendation to accept the fees in this case since there are public parks in close proximity
and the developer plans to develop a private park at their expense that the HOA will maintain. The fees
will allow us to develop other parks in the area.
Attached are a schematic of the private green space in the subdivision and the location of the nearby
parks.
Action is needed on this item.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Fees will be collected at the rate of $250 per unit. The estimated fees are $33,750 for the proposed 135
units.
