The land is heavily vegetated with several mature trees and an intersection point for two tributaries of the Riverton Creek merging into one (maps attached). This item was presented to both the Park Commission and Community Affairs and Parks Committee last year. The Committee authorized staff to proceed with this and bring it back when details are finalized along with a draft resolution to work through the full council process. After completion of the details for accepting the and donation this item was discussed at the October 12, 2016 Park Commission meeting and the Commission unanimously supported recommending the acceptance of this and donation to the City Council, DISCUSSION The location of the land is along South 128 " St. and 37`^ Ave S. and has potential to become a restored site with improvements made to the Riverton Creek area. The Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan recommends the City "Continue to seek opportunities for open space acquisition to increase land /trail connectivity, access to recreation areas and land conservation functions.' If the land donation is accepted an initial vegetation management plan would need to be performed. The site would be categorized as a Service Level 4, "Open Space" in the Parks Maintenance Service Levels plan and therefore would require very minimal annual maintenance. FINANCIAL IMPACT Approximately $10,000 includes Phase 1 Environmental Survey (completed) and vegetation management on site funded through the 2017 P &R CIP Land Acquisition budget after title transfer. RECOMMENDATION The Committee is being asked to approve the draft resolution and consider this item at the November 28, 2016 Committee of the Whole and December 5, 2016 Regular City Council Meetings.
