Requested Action
Approve Professional Services Agreement
Recommendation
Approve Professional Services Agreement
Description/History
The Park Land Dedication and Development Fee Chapter of the City of Mansfield’s Code of Ordinances was adopted in 2003 to provide adequate recreational areas and amenities in the form of neighborhood parks as a function of subdivision development in the city and to make the park land dedication and park development fee requirements an integral part of the review and approval of residential developments.
Many of the city’s parks were purchased from property owners with multiple parcels, and the city never conducted an updated boundary survey or re-platted these parcels into one parcel per park. As a result, many park boundary lines are not accurate and cause confusion on our park inventories. The attached professional services proposal from Brittain & Crawford, LLC will provide survey and platting services for the seven parks and facilities listed below in a first phase to address all outstanding parks needing to be re-platted.
