Dear Mayor& Commissioners,
By means of this letter, I wish to give you additional information regarding Agenda Item 8, and a
possible agenda item for the following week.
This final plat on McCleman's property designates future park land to be used for a
neighborhood park(Lot 1 of Block 2)that connects to a future neighborhood park in Pheasant
Nest, ultimately providing an approximate 11 acre park. Lot 2 of Block 2 (20 ft. strip on North)
plus Block 3 (125 ft. on east) will accommodate the recreational trail extension we have been
pursuing for three years.
I have a verbal agreement with Mike McClemans to acquire this property through an exchange,
trading $16,900 worth of upcoming street assessments for the nearly 11 acres of land. This
approximates the cost Mr. McClemans has invested per acre in the total parcel he purchased last
fall, which I feel is a commendable and reasonable offer on his part.
We do need to be aware, of course,that future street costs on Medary, south of 15th Street South,
become the city's responsibility as adjoining landowner. However, curb and gutter may not
extend beyond 15th Street South, and special drainage consideration also need to be incorporated
into future street construction, so there are other advantages for city ownership of this strip.
I plan on having a written agreement to accomplish this land transfer ready for your July 25th
meeting. I anticipate no reason to need an executive session to discuss this, as its all pretty
straightforward, unless you wish to do so, or there is strong disagreement with the proposal.
Thank you for your consideration and cooperation.
Sincerely,
Cc�� � .
Allyn Frerichs
Director of Parks, Recreation& Forestry
