�� A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING
MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM PARK DEDICATION AMOUNTS
FOR RESIDENTIAL/AGRICTILTURAL/MULTTPLE RESIDENTIAL ZONED LAND
WI�REAS, the City's general park dedication requirement is 8%of the land being
platted or subdivided; and �
WHEREAS,the City's pazk dedication ordinance calls for the dedication requirement
to be roughly proportional to the projected impact of the proposed development on the City's pazk
system; and � �-
WHEREAS, because of the vastly differing land values in Orono, the 8% park
• dedication requirement could result in pazk dedication requirements that are either significantly
greater than or significantly less than the amount which is roughly proportional to the impact of the
proposed development on the City's park system; and
WI3EREAS,to address the rough proportionality issue, the City will periodically
establish both a maximum and minimum park dedication amount per dwelling unit, based on an
updated proj ection of the cost of the City's park system,and the proportionate share of this proj ected
cost to be borne by new dwelling units in Orono; and
WHEREAS,the proportionate shaze of the proj ected cost of the City's park system
to be borne by new dwelling units has increased to an average of$4,600 per household; and
WHEREAS,the application of the City's general8%park dedication requirement
would result in those properties with lower values paying less than the $4,600 average, and those
properties with higher values paying more than the $4,600 average; and
WHEREAS, the establishment of minimum and maximum park dedication fee
amounts addresses the need for rough proportionality between the pazk dedication fee and the impact
of the development on the pazk system.
