Section 36-25 of the City's Land Development Ordinance (see the attached Exhibit) requires one acre of park land be dedicated for every 93 proposed dwelling units. In this case, the applicant is not proposing to dedicate any parkland to the city. The ordinance also allows for a cash payment in lieu of that dedication. The ordinance requires payment of 490 per dwelling unit to satisfy the cash payment in lieu of land dedication. This payment is due at the time of building permit for each individual dwelling unit. In addition to the cash payment in lieu of land dedication, the applicant is responsible for payment of a park development fee at the time of building permit. Section 36-25 of the Land Development Ordinance requires payment of a 313 fee per dwelling unit. As a result, at the time of building permit issuance for each lot the applicant will be responsible for payment of 490 + 313 = 303 to cover the cash payment in lieu of land dedication and park development fee. • Aerial Map • Morgan's Landing Preliminary Plats • Section 106-333(a) of the City's Code of Ordinances • Section 36-25 of the City's Land Development Ordinance I
