Green Space Preservation

At a glance

Based on auto-generated captions; names and details may be misheard.

  • What: work plan goal five, to identify three opportunities to preserve open space for parks and recreation.
  • Where it stands: staff are working toward formal recognition of the city-owned Hurst Drive parcel as preserved green space, ultimately by City Council resolution. The Greenville Loop Road park was supported earlier.
  • Next: staff will bring a bubble map of private areas, with reasons some were left out, and updates on the city parcels.

Approach

  • Planning (Linda Painter, planning director) prefers not to list addresses of private parcels so prices do not rise; a general bubble map replaces them.
  • City leadership supports continued open space preservation. Timing of a Council resolution is not set.
  • The earlier site presentation lists addresses and members were asked to keep it close.
