•J J'n
SUBJECT: Mandatory Dedication
Due to Denton's growth and our lack of funding for a parkland
acquisition and development program, we need to recommend an
,
uric ~,'"ar alternative proposal to Council for acquiring these critically
' iCtt xM" needed areas. This proposal has come about as a result of the
~following: f'
k)' 1) According to out community standard for neighborhood parkland
;IkPf~, of three acres per 1,000 population, we are currently 124
acres short of our needs. ~a r ti.
2) Only about 40 percent of Denton's residents are being a;^r
t ry,'> ,,;'M' adequately served by existing neighborhood parks.
r~ ~!r r ~Y+
w pr+, 3) According to our standards and Denton's present development,
we could use 10 to 15 additional neighborhood park areas
Y, : ~,.y r immediately,
I. , fo
r.; il'. 4) Lack o: neighborhood park space for our citizens causes
a?"' ,F } over-uae of our existing park areas and over-development of
those areas to accommodate the intense use.
5) Lack of neighborhood park space also causes many people,
r especially children and older adults, to go without park
services due to lack of transportation to other areas of town r:
r ,
that have park services, t'

6) Lack of neighborhood park areas encourages children to use
backyards, streets, driveways, or vacant lots for sports or
other group activities which may result in injuries or
'A) property damage.
7) Lack of neighborhood park facilities diminishes the quality of
life for residents in the neighborhood because they do not
have access to open space for walking, runningr playing, and
relaxing.
,tea'
fi "4 R
8) Some areas of our community have excellent neighborhood
parks. A parkland acquisition program will help us provide
similar services to every Denton resident.
9) Our goas is to provide a neighborhood park area within a half
mile walk or bike ride of all Denton residents.
10) Donations over the years have assisted us in securing
neighborhood park areas, but donated land is often located in
the floodplain or drainage areas or has unusual topography
raking it unsuitable for park development and use. The amount
of donated acreage has not kept pace with the population,
growth. J
PP`'lA,~" 11) Neighborhood parks and elementary schools should be planned on
adjacent sites and provide shared facilities. Because we have
:'r Y not had a land acquisition and development program, only Evers Y t:z'+r
and Borman Elementary Schools have park facilities adjacent to
w them. a r 4'`
12) Since 1970, our ocpulation has increased 58 percent, yet our
'f~raw '.y x~x neighborhood parkland deficit has gone from 93 acres in 1970 1
to 124 acres at the present time. This indicates that we are
~s
A'~kt;Y falling behind at a rapid rate.
1 r 'y d aJ i, ,i i~
y 'sr We feel the best option for funding park areas in Denton is to have
+"a`:![afi,:£ a mix of land dedicated by developers and funds set aside on an
R, annual basis ty the city to assist in development of those areas.
V ~ .
we also feel that City funds should be set aside annually for
upgrading our existing park areas and for acquiring land in areas of
the City that are already developed.
We feel our most immediate and critical need is securing
«rrh:' neighborhood park sites, Once these are obtained, we car, work them
into a development schedule that makes sense for the City au a
whole. in order to secare these areas from developers, we feel a
mandatory park dedication ordinance is essential. We recommend the ~1•
9q~q'"~,1 R, ordinance because of the following factoras

1) A mandatory dedication ordinance will provide us with
neighborhood pack sites in new and developing areas of the
community and will allow us to keep pace with future growth in
l I Z;
the community, especially when the next development boom hits.
2} A mandatory dedication ordinance will distribute the coste of
new parks fairly and equitably among the developers of new
areav and future residents who will ultimately be served by
the g irk areas.
n 4~'".
E 3) Developers in Denton have been unable to design a
comprehensive voluntary parkland donation plan which will meet
our neighborhood park needs, The Parka and Recreation Board
requested that the developers prepare a parkland donation hk.
h~y,ry report. Developers were invited to present that report at two
Park Board meetingss however, developers did not attend either f.'
meeting.
4) The Land Use Plan that is being finalized supports this type
of system to secure park sites for our community.
3) The Parka and Recreation Board has reviewed the ordinance and
supports the document. They have identified two options:
either developers have to shoulder the costa of providing
f
parks, or the City will have to devote millions of dollars in
the coming years to secure nece.9sary parkland. 3 .,h
6) Mandatory dedication ordinances are now being successfully s
used in seven cities in Texas and are now providing park areas ;
for their new and expanding areas. These are Austin, College ti.
Station, Port Worth, Carrollton, Lewisville, Flower Mound, and
" tl";.; Tfti take Dallas. Four of these are in Denton County.

~gifir "f, We recently completed a survey of 000 Denton residents. Some of the
questions asked addressed parks and parkland acquisition. Of those
respondings f
1) 83% of all residents feel that parka increase the value of
rat, `J their property.

3) 801 agree that Denton should acquire more parkland in the next
five yeara. `
4) 731 would be willing to support a future bond issue to
1 purchase land for additional parks.
861 would support an ordinance requiring developers to donate:
41 1
"
land for additional parks. ?
These numbers indicate that residents value parks in our commuAity.t;c
The results also show support for acquiring more parkland thro,igh a
i bond issue and even greater support for acquisition through
mandatory dedication.
