Sisk's concern was to ensure the fact that the "cash in lieu of" would go to acquisition, not of open space, and would not be combined into the General Fund. Davidson: The Finance Officer puts that into the Conservation Trust and it does go only for those type purposes. Sisk: What do you expect the price range to be of these homes? Leach: We're hoping to keep them in the high $100,000's, like $175,000.00 to $200,000.00. We would like to keep under $200,000.00. Lathrop was concerned about the setback sidewalk to be maintained by the Homeowner's Association in a drought resistant sod. He stated that he would not like to see that as a trend in the future, as they tend not to be maintained very well, when they're not very far from the street. Howard's concern was that when they mentioned "the park", he was assuming that what they meant was not a park per se but just the foliage and grasses. Leach: Outlot 1 will be primarily a landscaped area, but it's also designed so that it can become a play area. Howard: I don't know if you're planning on it or if the Homeowner's Association in the future has the ability to put in "tot lot" type equipment, and if it does, my concern is being an attractive nuisance to the area. Attracting other people, so that you get heavy use in this area, and possibly cars being parked because, of the attractive nature of it.
