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
appropnate. 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, industnal 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
