Subdivision Ordinance
PARKS AND RECREATION ORDINANCE Chapter 46: Sections 1- 18 of the municipal code for Parks and Recreation should be completed as soon as possible. The online Municode online version is still incomplete. The Parks and Recreation Ordinance in Chapter 46 (B -2008-012, 1, 8-28-2008) of Municipal Code should include additional rules on trail use and maintenance. In addition, the ordinance should address the use of natural and conservation areas. PARKLAND DEDICATION Chapter 66 (sec 51 -58) of the Citys Community Facilities Policy, addresses several issues related to Parkland dedication. These aspects could be strengthened: Large, contiguous parcels should be dedicated during subdivision development. Parcels of land should not be too close to streets or hazardous terrain. New developments should have sidewalks that provide access to the main streets and greenways. Subdivision policy should also address the loop-and-lollipop street patterns commonly found in suburban housing developments.
