City Council Meeting Minutes October 16 2018 Page 8 of 14 Mayor Muckle stated he would like to see all options considered and pros and cons. We will need to address the Standley Marketplace option as so many people mention it. He would also like to consider mixed uses that have significant public benefits (parks, water features, etc.) Councilmember Leh stated we can't ignore the constraints that exist. It is important to be creative within the constraints that we have. We all need to hear exactly what the constraints are and what it would take to address those. He doesn't want to suggest we have the ability to do anything on the property; there are constraints. It sounds like we need to be down scaling our financial expectations in this area Guimond stated there are scenarios that suggest there may be ways to contribute to the continued growth of sales tax in this area and have a positive impact on the community DISCUSSION/DIRECTION — OPEN SPACE ZONING SCOPE OF WORK Open Space Manager Brignull stated this is a review of the scope of work for the zoning of remaining open space parcels. Staff is looking for direction to move forward with zoning on certain parcels. That zoning process will include public input and will follow the zoning rules and public notice rules laid out in the municipal code. All of the parcels under consideration are currently managed as open space and meet the criteria for open space. Staff originally zoned all the easiest parcels, the only remaining properties are those under discussion tonight. She noted there may be other parcels to consider for zoning after this phase is complete. Brignull reviewed each parcel individually Coal Creek Trail Corridor— Brignull stated this area functions as a wildlife corridor and trail corridor and has not been designated as open space in the past. Staff recommends continuing the current management practice which is consistent with the Open Space - Visitor classification Councilmember Stolzmann stated this zoning process is needed for good stewardship of the land and to be proactive For this parcel there is a privately owned section the trail goes through She asked if it is acceptable to zone private parcels as Open Space with the owners approval She would like a delineation between the golf course out of bounds area and the Open Space She would like the area around the golf maintenance shop clarified She would like the zoning to include the areas adjacent to the trail and Dillon Road also zoned or at least clarified Councilmember Maloney stated we need to make sure this zoning respects the connections to other trails. He would like a hardscape trail connecting the US 36 trail to the Powerline Trail He asked if this zoning would allow that hardscape. He asked if this zoning would accommodate an expansion to the golf course maintenance building.
