Park Dedication Requirements �CROSEMO EXECUTIVE SUMMARY PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting: July 25, 2016 AGENDA ITEM: Park Dedication Requirements AGENDA SECTION: New Business PREPARED BY: Dan Schultz, Parks and Recreation AGENDA NO. Director 7 c. ATTACHMENTS: Park Dedication Requirement Information APPROVED BY: dds RECOMMENDED ACTION: To be discussed at the meeting. ISSUE Minnesota.State statutes provide municipalities the opportunity to collect a portion of a subdivision for public purposes. Listed below is the state statute language pertaining to the dedication of land in a subdivision and also the language about the nexus of between the impact of the development and the required dedication. State statute 462.358 (a) Subdivision 2b. Dedication.The regulations may requixe that a reasonable portion of the buildable land, as defined by municipal ordinance, of any proposed subdivision be dedicated to the public or preserved for public use as streets,roads, sewers, electric,gas,and water facilities, storm water drainage and holding areas or ponds and similar utilities and improvements, parks,recreational facilities as defined in section 471.191,playgrounds,trails,wetlands,or open space.The xequitement must be imposed by ordinance or under the procedures established in section 462.353, subdivision 4a. Subd. 2c.Nexus.There must be an essential ne�cus between the fees oY dedication imposed under subdivision 2b and the municipal purpose sought to be achieved by the fee or dedication.The fee or dedication must bea,Y a rough proportionality to the need created by the proposed subdivision or development. The City of Rosemount's parks dedication requirement for residential development presumes that a reasonable amount of land has been dedicated for parks if a sub-divider dedicates one twenty-fifth 1/25 of an acre for each dwelling unit of the proposed subdivision (acres to be dedicated = 0.04 x number of dwe]ling units). The City then determines whether a cash payment in lieu of the land dedication is appropriate based on our Parks,Trails and Open Space Master Pla.n. One issue with the current Yequ.irement is that all residential units are dedicating the same amount of la,nd/cash even though the residential unit might vary gready in size and potential impact to the parks system.An example might be a single family home with four bedrooms is dedicating the same amount of land as a one bedroom apartment. Staff have reviewed the parks dedication methods of several other cities and included some examples in a chart that is included in the packet.The examples that staff has provided show that some cities use a sliding scale of percentages for land to be dedicated based on density, some base the dedication on how many people will reside in a specific dwelling type and some such as Rosemount and Savage,have a fla,t method of collecting the dedication because it is the same no ma,tter the type of housing unit or density of the development. At the bottom of the spreadsheet that identifies how some cities collect park dedication,you will see a pxoposed adjustment to our current collection method of requ.iring.04 acres per unit. Staff would like to discuss with the Commission the thought of having a different park dedication requirement based on density. At the meeting on Monda,y, staff will provide some examples of how our current parks dedication methods work on low,medium and high density developments and also what it would look like if we ma,de proposed changes. A recommended action can be discussed at the meeting if the Commission chooses to do so.

YI/�.�, 2016 PARK DEDICATION FEES Park dedication fees are outlined in City Ordinance No. XVII.103 which states: In all new residential subdivisions, the City shall require that a sufficient portion of such land be set aside and dedicated to the public for parks, playgrounds or other public use exclusive of property dedicated for streets and other public ways. It shall be presumed that a sufficient amount of land has been dedicated for parks and playgrounds for the present and future residents of the subdivision, if the subdivider dedicates at least 1/25 (.04) of an acre per dwelling unit that can be constructed in the subdivision. The City upon consideration of the particular type of development proposed in the subdivision may require larger or lesser amounts of land be dedicated if the City determines that the present and future residents of the subdivision would require greater or lesser amounts of land for such purposes. The City shall determine whether cash in lieu of land dedication is more appropriate. The amount of cash dedication shall be determined by multiplying the number of acres otherwise required to be dedicated by the average value of comparable undeveloped land set by resolution by the City Council. In all new commercial, industrial and other subdivisions, it shall be presumed that a sufficient amount of land has been dedicated to serve the needs of the resident and working population if the subdivider dedicates at least ten percent (10%) of the land in the subdivision for parks, recreation and usable open space. The City upon consideration of the particular type of development proposed in the subdivision may require larger or lesser amounts of land to be dedicated if it determines that the present and future residents of the subdivision would require greater or lesser amounts of land for such purposes. The City shall determine whether cash in lieu of land dedication is appropriate. The amount of cash dedication shall be determined by multiplying the number of acres otherwise required to be dedicated by the average value of comparable undeveloped land set by resolution of the City Council.
