MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO PARK COMMISSION <br /> MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 6, 1997 <br /> (#4B - Park Dedication-North Oaks - Continued) <br /> (Ilse arrived at this time - 9:02 p.m.) <br /> C. ILSE - WHITE BEAR LAKE <br /> Ilse said she called the Cities of White Bear Lake, Roseville, and Mahtomedi but did not <br /> have the information with her at this time. <br /> D. WILSON - SHOREVIEW � <br /> Wilson said Shoreview has a similar Park and Open Space Commission. Park dedication <br /> is charged only for subdivision. The percentage of park dedication is dependent upon the <br /> type of land and must be usable land. The fee is 10% on developable land for <br /> subdivisions only. A credit is received for wetland mitigation and trails. Their park <br /> commission sees all plats and have not been challenged. Wilson said Shoreview's <br /> philosophy is similar to that of Orono. <br /> E. WELLES - EDEN PRAIRIE, PLYMOUTH, AND LONG LAKE <br /> Welles said Plymouth has a Park and Recreation Advisory Council. They charge a $1400 <br /> per unit flat fee but have higher density levels. There is a separate ordinance for <br /> commercial and industrial properties requiring $4,200 per acre, which is not contingent <br /> on subdivision. Gappa indicated that nothing is received if not subdivided. <br /> Welles said Eden Prairie has a Parks Recreation and Natural Areas Division and require <br /> $1,400 per unit. If land is taken, the number of units is multiplied by the per unit cost and <br /> divided into the land value. <br /> Long Lake has a Park Commission and has a 5% flat fee of gross land area for <br /> subdivisions only. <br /> F. ERICKSON - MOUND <br /> Erickson said he is awaiting a response from the City of Mound. <br /> Independence has a five tier approach; 0-4.99 acres is 10% is appraised market value; 5- <br /> 9.99 acres is 8%, 10-14.99 acres is 6%; 15-19.99 acres is 4%; and 20+ acres is 2%. <br /> Wilson noted that Independence shows incentive for larger lots. <br /> Welles said he would like to see how this is in relationship to their comprehensive plan. <br /> 8 <br />
