subdivision land dedication standards may be required through the PUD process based on a list of potential factors. In addition, if waivers from the zoning standards are requested under LMC Sec. 17.28.110 the criteria for approval includes requirements for additional open space beyond the subdivision land dedication standards. While these land dedication requirements are not part of this GDP review process, PPLAB should be aware of these additional requirements that will be reviewed with future PUD applications. Role of PROS Advisory Boards Each Parks, Recreation and Open Space (PROS) advisory board has a different purview with respect to the development proposal. The City staff is seeking the formal recommendation of each of the PROS advisory boards on the applicant's GDP and land dedication proposal. The City's municipal code and City Council enabling resolutions define each board's role, as summarized below. PPLAB The City Council established the Parks and Public Landscaping Advisory Board in 2015 through Resolution 65, Series 2015 (see Attachment 3). The role of the board as it relates to this development is: • To assist the City Council and staff in determining the community's needs and desires for parks, programs and facilities in relationship to parks related issues in the Parks, Recreation, Open Space, and Trails Master Plan; • To advise the City Council and staff on park and public landscape maintenance, development, and redevelopment, and review referrals for proposed landscape plans for public areas. OSAB The City defines the role of the Open Space Advisory Board in Title 4 of the Louisville Municipal Code. Per Sec. 4.02.040 — Ongoing duties, as it relates to this development, the board shall: • Provide comments to the council and/or planning commission on development proposals for land immediately adjacent to, or materially impacting, open space lands providing the comments during the standard referral timelines established for the city's development processes; • Provide input on the location of trails and paths on open space lands; • Provide recommendations as to how open space within the city's boundaries and immediately adjacent thereto can best coexist with surrounding private land; • Provide recommendations as to how the city can manage park and other land adjacent to open space lands in a manner that best promotes the continued integrity of open space; • Provide any additional recommendation on open space issues the board finds appropriate.
