CITY OF ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL NO.7490 the cash contribution shall be equivalent to the fair market value of the land to be dedicated. The determination of the fair market value of the undeveloped land by the city assessor, city council, or designated appraisers shall be determined at the time of final approval. Where the anticipated park needs are greater than the number of acres to be developed, the city establishes a maximum park dedication fee. For residential density of 3 units per acre or less a cap of 4 percent of the predeveloped value is applied. The 2020-2040 Comprehensive Plan does not specify the need for a neighborhood park or trail at this location. A park dedication of land instead would be appropriate according to the City Ordinance. A13. The Developer has submitted a Conservation Design Master Plan (CDMP) prepared by Anderson Engineering which inventories and describes the environmental features of the site, defining what natural values of the site should be preserved or enhanced and how that should occur. According to the CDMP, the plan includes integrating the existing natural environment to minimize negative impacts on the current rural character. Landscaping and planting along the northern boundary of the Property will be utilized to preserve the positive and natural viewsheds identified along CSAH 6. The development will not impact the natural viewshed of Lake Classen, regardless of travel direction (east or west) along CSAH 6. The CDMP concluded that the project would not have a significant impact on natural resources, nor would it negatively impact the existing rural character of the location.
