18. First Reading of Ordinance No. 060, 2002, Authorizing the Acceptance of a Donation of 1.524
Acres of Land from Waterglen. LLC and Appropriating Unanticipated Revenue in the
Neighborhood Parkland Fund Waterglen Park Project.
The current Parks and Recreation Policy Plan, which was approved by the City Council with the
adoption of Resolution 96-146 in December 1996, recommends that neighborhood parks be
developed at a standard of 2.5 acres per 1,000 population. The service area for a park is typically
one square mile in size and bounded by arterial streets. The Waterglen Development is located
in the square mile bounded by I-25 on the east, Vine Drive on the south, North Timberline Road
on the west and Mountain Vista Drive on the north. The Policy Plan and City Plan encourage the
development of mini -parks as a component of the City's neighborhood park system.
The Waterglen Development is located in the southeast corner ofthe square mile adjacent to I-25
and Vine Drive. The development is bordered on the west and north by a large irrigation canal.
It is anticipated that additional residential development west and north of the canal will generate the
need for a larger neighborhood park. The plan would be to place the larger park across the
irrigation canal from the Waterglen Mini -Park and connect the two with a pedestrian bridge.
