Zoning File #1321 October 7, 1988 Page 2 of 3 ,The original request for the metes and bounds division appeared a simple solution for the school's dilema. Based on guidelines and standards that direct the fiscal policies of the school district, the district could not purchase the property on a contract basis but had to purchase in fee ownership. The need to divide the property in order t- facilitate the sale also made it necessary to come before the City for subdivision approval. Review Exhibit D, Mr. Fenholt's letter that gives the background and purpose for the acquisition of the property. Please review the enclosed staff memo dated 9/2/88 that outlines the review of the four lot plat. Council Members should also review the minutes of that meeting in order to bet*er understand the School District and the City's concerns. The road outic,- was the major - ncern for the school aistrict as the property could no longer be used a school if a public road was to divide it. Planning Commission Memhers _..wised that the City would be willing to agree to delay all construction of a through road during the specified period of the sale contract for the scroll district. Several other issue. were reviewed by both parties and all agreed that it was necessary to set these down in a formal agreement prior to the final subdivision approval by the City. Those issues are as follows: 1. Establish deadline for th- total acquisition of the property by the school district. 2. City to define an interium planning policy regarding future development to the east in relation to the location of Outlot A. 3. Assurance that if road is to be c(-nstructed in the future, because of the failure of the school district to acquire all four parcels within a specified amount of time, that all owners of the four parcels at that time will share in the cost of construction of the road when required. 4. Define the various levels of development of the parcels that would require road improvements and specify degree of improvement required. 5. Define the types of security and aignage necessary when students commence (informal or formal) use of the property. 6. Indemnification of the City for any liability.
