Background
The applicant is proposing to subdivide an existing outlot into 15 single family detached units. The final plat also includes six outlots for drainage, ponding, future commercial and multi-family development, and private roadways.
Park dedication will be required with the platting of each new lot. The Lexington Athletic Complex (LAC) just to the south of this Plat is located on 40 acres that were purchased from the applicant. An element of that purchase relied on future park dedication as a credit for what the City owes on the balance of the purchase (currently $1.4 Million). The Park Dedication that will then be due from the platting of the fifteen (15) lots will be established as a credit against the $1.4 Million that is owed by the City. Also consistent with the park purchase agreement the 2011 park rate of $2,435 per residential lot/unit will be used to calculate the credit. Future lots that are final platted will also be calculated as a park credit in the same manner.
The purchase agreement for the LAC park purchase also outlined that WAC (Water Access Charges) payments would also be used as part of the credit on park dedication payments. This will be further identified and called out in the Development Agreement.
