.17' <br /> Mr. Marvin Collins <br /> Ms . Mary Anne Black <br /> Page Two <br /> January 4 , 1988 <br /> Requiring public recreation trails and <br /> private natural conservation easements generally should <br /> cause Orange County no difficulties . The requirements <br /> can be problematic in a particular case , however. <br /> Certainly in the case of the public recreation trails , <br /> access to the trails must be assured to landowners <br /> within the subdivision. The recreation trail <br /> requirement should satisfy a recreation need or <br /> requirement of the subdivision in question . There must <br /> be , in all of this, a nexus , and as close a one as <br /> possible , between the development under consideration <br /> and the exaction being considered . I will be <br /> developing this notion in more detail as soon as <br /> possible . This task , however, must wait further <br /> clarification by lower federal courts of the more <br /> recent Supreme Court decisions in this area . I am <br /> analyzing those decisions presently. <br /> Very truly yours , <br /> c=• fr: y E.
