Harper Lake, Coyote Run, and Aquarius Open Space properties per Ordinance No. 1597, Series 2011 and Ordinance No.1752, Series 2017. In this next phase of formally zoning property as Open Space, staff requested the City Council consider and endorse the "scope" of the next properties to go through the process of surveying, public hearings, adjacent property owner notifications, etc. Properties discussed with City Council on October 16, 2018 for this next phase of zoning included: Coal Creek Trail Corridor (between HWY 36 and Dillon), Dutch Creek Open Space, Olson Properties, Warembourg, Lake Park Open Space, and Walnut. Please see the City Council packet which is located at: http://www.louisvilleco.gov/home/showdocument?id=21236 for the detailed packet information and map of properties discussed. Direction provided by City Council includes: • Coal Creek Trail (HWY 36 to Dillon Road): City Council gave direction to zone this property as Open Space. However, staff was asked to consider future expansion of the Golf Maintenance Shop (floodplain issues related to expansion), evaluate including parcels in the road right of way, and determine if adjacent private lands could be zoned as Open Space. • Dutch Creek: City Council gave direction to zone this property as Open Space and supported staff's recommendation to work with appropriate boards and staff on designating boundary lines next to Elephant Park and the golf course. • Olson: City Council requested additional information regarding this property before giving direction on Open Space zoning. City Council requested staff to evaluate the southern portion of the property for potential park -like uses such as: a dog park, playing fields, playgrounds, etc. as well as potential commercial uses. Generally, City Council was supportive of zoning the northern portion of the property as Open Space with the "Open Space -Other" classification which allows for the most flexibility in management practices. • Warembourg Open Space: City Council gave direction to zone this property as Open Space and to include an additional parcel in the north-west corner of the property. • Lake Park Open Space: City Council gave direction to wait until 2020 to give formal zoning direction on this property. In 2020 the Cottonwood Master Plan is scheduled to occur, information gained in the planning effort will be considered before voting on Open Space zoning. During the discussion a significant majority of the City Council preferred to designate Lake Park as a park and the Cottonwood Master Planning process would help further inform future deliberation. • Page 2 10
