A concept plan for the development of a trail and picnic sites around the wetland has been <br /> submitted. Despite commen, ts in City Staff review letter dated July 26, 1995, the pre-development <br /> agreement did not require AEX2 to develop this park, only to provide concept plans. <br /> <br />;iBecause of the unusually large size of the site, the City Engineer has recommended that a private <br />ifire line be installed for fire protection. <br /> <br />:':The Planning Commission also recommended the installation of turn and by-pass lanes on County <br />:iRoads #56 and #116.
