REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM <br /> Agenda Date Requested: May 23, 2011 Appropriation <br /> Requested By: Stephen L. Barr Source of Funds: N/A <br /> Department: Parks & Recreation Account Number: <br /> Report: Resolution: X Ordinance: Amount Budgeted: <br /> Exhibits: Land Use Resolution Amount Requested: <br /> Exhibits: Budgeted Item: YES NO <br /> Exhibits: <br /> SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION <br /> The Klein's Retreat Property and Happy Harbor Property were purchased for an undetermined future use. <br /> One possible use for a portion or all of the properties is for parkland, to connect the Seabreeze Park with <br /> Sylvan Beach to the southwest. The future land use has not been determined at this date. <br /> There is an issue of the properties becoming "de facto" parks, where the occasional recreational use becomes <br /> the primary activity and could be claimed as the intended use. While this is a possibility, in order to reserve <br /> the final determination of how the land will be used in the future, the City Attorney's office is <br /> recommending that this resolution be considered by the Council establishing that the future use has not been <br /> determined and that although the property is available for recreational use, it is not dedicated parkland. <br /> The resolution does not preclude the future use of the property as parkland, should the Council determine <br /> that should be its future use. It does eliminate the claim for "de facto" parkland based on previous use, <br /> should the Council decide some other future use for the land. <br /> tion R quired by Council: <br /> onsider , pproval or other action regarding a Land Use Resolution for former Klein's Retreat and Happy <br /> Harbor odist Ho' e properties. <br /> A i -S uncil A. enda <br /> 1■1- CAP ill <br /> Ron Bottoms, City Manager Date <br />
