City Council Meeting Minutes July 23, 2019 Page 13 of 14 Councilmember Stolzmann suggested the street right-of-way be platted for a clear idea of where the street is. She wanted to know if the credit union driveway is on city property. Mayor Muckle agreed there was a need to understand where the right of way is. Councilmember Maloney asked about space for the storage barn. Director Moseley noted staff has been looking at leaving room for expansion for that purpose. Dutch Creek — excludes noncontiguous parcels along the south side of West Cherry Street and Bella Vista Drive and increases the Golf Course boundary to include an additional twenty -foot boundary around the golf course green and fairway. It excludes the West Cherry Street right-of-way and excludes the Elephant Park swing set. Alternatively we could zone this property following completion of the playground replacement. Councilmember Stolzmann asked if the sprinklers in Elephant Park straddle the sidewalk and suggested the irrigation line be the delineation not the sidewalk. Superintendent Brignull noted it is in line with the tree row and irrigation. Councilmember Stolzmann said at 0 South 90th Street it needs clear what that property is and how it is maintained. Superintendent Brignull noted one has formal trail others do not. Councilmember Stolzmann thought this should all be open space. South into the county, where the golf course touches the trail needs to be identified as part of city. Mayor Muckle felt that might be expensive to survey. Olson — Excludes the southernmost parcel to allow for additional Parks Board and staff discussion regarding the best future use of the area. It excludes road right-of-way at the request of Public Works, it excludes County Road. We will need to plat 96th Street to designate road right-of-way. Councilmember Stolzmann felt the southern piece between the bridge and railroad should be designated open space. She supported platting the street all the way through this portion of the city. Just north of this area on Hwy 42 the east side should be designated open space adjacent to Mayhoffer. Mayor Muckle wanted to get these open spaces zoned but did not want to have to fix things again. He was inclined to plat the southern part as open space. Councilmember Loo noted the Parks Board looked at the southern piece and there was a suggestion for playing fields there. Superintendent Brignull noted staff looked at this largely based on Council's discussion of the possibility of a dog off -leash area or sports field. Staff did not want to limit future uses for that area. Director Moseley noted parking might limit uses for recreation. Mayor Pro Tem Lipton remembered the conversation about the recreational possibilities and was hesitant to preclude that. 30
