ISSUE
At our meeting in July,the Parks and Recreation Comtnission discussed methods of collecting parks
dedication and how some cities collect different amounts foY different types of development. One piece of
information that sta,ff did not have at the last meeting was a housing profile for Rosemount.The
Metropolitan Council has provided staff with Rosemount's housing information. Based on the housing
information, staff would like to continue discussing the topic of collecting paxks dedication.
BACKGROUND
Minnesota Sta,te statutes pxovide municipalities the opportunity to collect a portion of a subdivision for
public purposes. Listed below is the sta.te sta.tute language pertaining to the dedication of land in a
subdivision and also the language about the ne�cus between the impact of the development and the
required dedication.
Sta.te statute 462.358 (a) Subdivision 2b. Dedication.The regulations may require that a reasonable
portion of the buildable la,nd, as defined by municipal ordinance, of any pYoposed subdivision be
dedicated to the public or pxeserved for public use as streets,roads,sewers, electric,ga.s,and water
facilities, storm water drainage and holding axeas or ponds and similar utilities and improvements,
parks,recreational facilities as defined in section 471.191,pla,ygrounds, trails,wetlands, or open
space.'The requ.irement must be imposed by ordinance or under the proceduxes esta.blished in
section 462.353, subdivision 4a.
Subd. 2c.Ne�zs.There must be an essentia.l ne�s between the fees or dedication imposed undex
subdivision 2b. and the municipal purpose sought to be achieved by the fee or dedication.The fee
or dedication must bear a rough proportionality to the need created by the proposed subdivision or
development.
The City of Rosemount's parks dedication requirement for residential development presuxnes 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
dwelling units).The City then determines whether a cash payment in lieu of the land dedication is
appropxiate based on our Parks,Trails and Open Space Master Pla.n.
Manp communities follow the parkland acre per resident sta,nda,rd that is recommended by National
Recreation and Parks Association.The NRPA calls for a baseline park acreage per population of 10 acres
per 1,000 population or.01 acres per person.
One issue with the current xequirement 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 pa,rks
system.An example might be a single family home with foux bedtooms is dedicating the same amount of
land as a one bedroom apartment.
Staff have reviewed the parks dedication methods of sevexal 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 flat
method of collecting the dedication because it is the same no matter the type of housing unit or density of
the development.
SUMMARY
At the meeting on Monday, staff would like to continue the discussion regarding parks dedication methods
for low,medium and high density developments.

The Metropolitan Council's Annual Estimates account for housing stock changes since April 1,2010.These include housing units permitted and other
changes.Other changes are due to demolitions,building conversions(units added or lost),city boundary changes(units annexed in or out),and other
changes reported by city and township staff.We assume that 95%of single-family detached units,90%of townhome/duplex/triplex/quadplex units,
and 85%of multifamily units permitted in 2014 were completed and occupiable by April 1,2015;the remainder are occupiable in the future and will
count toward next year's estimates(for April 1,2016).
Manufactured homes are counted each year from Metropolitan Council surveys of manufactured home park operators and local governments.Other
housing(boats,RVs,etc.used as housing)comes from the most recent American Community Survey estimates.
