Committee to follow up on Charlie Wood Park proposal after developer meeting
Summary
Members were briefed that developer Renison will meet with city staff on July 15 regarding the Charlie Wood Park proposal; the committee discussed sending a representative or having Charlie represent them, and requested the final developer plan (including wetlands information) be circulated.
Committee members discussed the status of the Charlie Wood Park proposal and a related development. Staff said they had located the final proposal (which includes additional wetlands information differing from the earlier draft) and will circulate the final plan to committee members. The developer (Renison) is scheduled to meet with city staff on July 15 to discuss the project; members asked that the committee be kept apprised and that a committee representative attend or that Charlie represent the group at the staff meeting.
Members reviewed background: an earlier committee meeting produced 12 recommendation bullets from the developer’s presentation and additional follow‑up recommendations; some items remained unaddressed because of schedule breaks. Committee members asked whether cost estimates had been prepared; staff said some cost estimates existed for project options but no final funding or credit mechanism had been agreed to. One committee member summarized the current state: the developer had proposed paying upfront costs in exchange for credits (for example, building permits or impact fees) but nothing has been committed and the arrangement remains conceptual.
Staff indicated they will send the development agreement and the final proposal electronically to committee members for review. The committee set a plan to reconvene discussion after the July 15 meeting and to continue coordinating with city staff and the developer.
