RE: TARA OAKS-PRELIMINARY PLAT
The above-referenced request was recommended for approval by the
Planning and Zoning Board on July 12, 1988. The Staff Comments
at that time did not include a determination of the land value
per acre which is used to calculate the parks and recreation
dedication fee paid to the City at the time of final plat
approval.
Based on the developer's purchase contract, it is recommended
that the land value be set at $39,632.54/acre.
