Councilmember urges keeping lakefront parcel as parkland amid development talk
Summary
Councilmember Brian Peters told colleagues residents had asked whether housing or apartments would be developed on city-owned parkland near Lakeview; he urged the council to preserve the parcel for park use rather than allowing development.
During the Dec. 16 meeting Councilmember Brian Peters raised constituent concerns about a city-owned parcel west of the Lakeview Housing Addition, north of the golf course and southeast of the soccer fields, saying residents had contacted him about possible housing or apartment development on that site.
Peters said the parcel provides unique park land adjacent to the lake and argued the city should protect it from development. No formal motion to change the parcel’s zoning or use was offered during the meeting; the comment was recorded as part of general discussion.
