S UB J E C T:R ec onsider P ark Land Location S apphire Lake Development
D AT E:June 13, 2018
B AC KG R OUN D
Winkler Land C ompany, LLC . (Developer), the property owner of the propos ed S apphire Lake
development, met with c ity staff on June 7, 2018 about issues pertaining to the c overage of the sanitary
s ewer and elevation of the future Bisc ayne Avenue. In short, the area in the northeast c orner of the
development would have to receive c onsiderable fill to provide the proper c overage for the sanitary sewer,
which would require the future Bis cayne Avenue to rec eive cons iderable fill in order for it to be at the proper
elevation to matc h the future S pruce S treet elevation. As a result, the Developer is reques ting the P ark and
R ecreation C ommis s ion recons ider the location of the park to be dedic ated in the development. S pec ifically
the developer is requesting the C ommis s ion cons ider allowing the park land dedication to occ ur over the last
four res idential lots in the northeast c orner of the development, whic h was originally recommended by staff
to the C ommission. T his would allow the future S pruce S treet elevation to be lowered adjacent to the c urrent
propos ed four residential lots. Becaus e of this , it would allow a better transition of the future S pruc e S treet
elevation to the future Bis cayne Avenue elevation. It would also reduc e the need for a large amount of fill for
the future Bis cayne Avenue.
I have included two attachments in the meeting packet. O ne is a drawing showing the park land loc ation
recommended by staff to the C ommis s ion for the April 11, 2018 meeting. T he sec ond one is a drawing
s howing the park land location the C ommission rec ommended at its April 11, 2018 meeting.
T he Developer and a member of the Engineering Department will be in attendance to have a dis cus s ion with
the C ommission about the issues that are driving the reques t to recons ider the location of the park in the
S apphire Lake development.
T he C ommission is being asked to do the following:
partic ipate in a dis c us s ion with the Develo p er and Engineering Dep artment staff about the is s ues
identified above
make a decision about either leaving the p ark land dedic ation in the location the C ommis s ion
recommended at its Ap ril 11, 2018 meeting o r c hange the park d ed icatio n lo catio n to acc ep t the las t
