In any development of over twenty-five(25) dwelling units,the developer may be required to convey the land and pay a fee in accordance with the following formula: 1. When only a portion of the land which the developer is required to convey for parks is to be conveyed, such portion shall be conveyed for parks or a fee computed pursuant to the provisions set out herein shall be paid to the City for any additional land that the developer would otherwise have been required to convey hereunder. 2. When most of the land designated as parks in the vicinity of the proposed development is needed to complete the site, such remaining portion shall be conveyed by the developer and a fee shall be paid by the developer in lieu of conveying the additional land which the developer would otherwise be required to convey and such fees to be used for the improvements of other city park land in the area serving the development. f. Determination of land or fee. The City Council shall determine whether to accept land or require payment of the fee in lieu thereof,after consideration of the following: 1. Topography, geology access and location of land in the development available for dedication; 2. Size and shape of the development and land available; 410 Rev.9/24/12(LandDevelopmentCode) V-14 3.

The City Council shall consider the request after a recommendation from the Leisure Services Department and the Planning and Zoning Board at the time of approval of the preliminary plat. At the time of approval of the final subdivision plat the developer shall convey the land and pay the fees as previously determined by the City Council,but not later than issuance of a building permit.

Install a 15 foot wide buffer yard with 40 plants per 100 linear feet and one tree per 1500 sq. ft. of lot area and a 6-foot high masonry wall (e.g. 200-foot wide lot = 80 shrubs/two(2)trees). f. Where walls are selected, they shall be inside the buffer area with plantings on the outside. g. A project could have different buffer yard requirements for the rear and each side depending upon the adjacent uses. h. The buffer yard plan shall be included in the landscaping plan. i.
