<br />14 <br />X . REPORT S <br />A. STATUS REPORT ON THE CONCEPT PLANS APPROVED IN STONEY CREEK <br />AREA <br />Planning Director Marvin Collins presented information as <br />contained in the agenda. He showed on a large map the four concept plans <br />that have been received between September, 1994 and February, 1995. <br />Commissioner Gordon suggested revisiting the provisions of the <br />dedication of land or payment-in-lieu provisions in the Subdivision <br />Ordinance. <br />Discussion ensued on the conservation areas, nature trail, <br />wildlife corridor, etc. Mr. Collins said that a conservation easement <br />could sit on top of this land and provide more protection than the <br />wetlands or stream buffer requirements. <br />Commissioner Willhoit stated he likes the idea of folding the <br />recreation area into the greenway concept. It was decided to show the <br />plan to the county schools to see if they are specifically interested in a <br />school site in this area. The parcel referred to as a location for a park <br />may be appropriate for a school site. Also, Commissioner Willhoit asked <br />that the concept plans be shared with the Stoney Creek Study Committee. <br />Commissioner Gordon suggested taking to public hearing in August <br />the dedication of land/payment-in-lieu provisions. <br />This report was received as information. <br />XI.
