phase, Northfork Links, platted the golf course and 14 single family lots. Northfork Links 2nd Addition platted another two lots, Northfork Links 3ra Addition replatted four lots in Northfork Links into three lots, Northfork Lake platted another 18 lots and Northfork Highlands platted another 17 lots. The preliminary plat for Northfork 5th expired prior to all 120 lots being final platted and recorded. Therefore, the applicant was required to obtain a new preliminary plat approval for the next 11 lots (Highlands Second Addition) prior to obtaining final plat approval and recording. The same procedure will be applicable to the remaining 59 lots that received preliminary plat approval in 1990 under Northfork 5°~ Addition. All of the lots meet the Northfork PUD one-acre minimum lot size and are at least 160 feet wide at the street frontage or building setback line. The lots are proposed to receive public access from the westerly extension of Inverness Lane and Jarvis Street. In accordance with the May 9, 1989 Northfork Park Dedication Agreement, there are no park dedication obligations to be met in this plat. The City Engineer has approved the Grading Plan with some modifications. The developer has engaged the services of Kunde Company to do a tree preservation plan for each individual lot. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on March 6, 2000. The manager of The Links golf course was present and indicated that any issues they had relating to the impact of the construction on golf course activities have been resolved. Councilmember Anderson questioned the cul-de-sac mailbox policy. Community Development Director Frolik explained that Public Works requested that all mailboxes be located at the entrance of the cul-de-sac to make snow removal easier. Councilmember Anderson stated that a lot of people go out to get their morning paper and she didn't anticipate that people would want to walk to the end of the cul-de-sac and questioned if the new policy will prohibit paper boxes. Community Development Director Frolik explained that the paper boxes will be included at the location of the mailboxes. Councilmember Connolly questioned the park dedication. Community Development Director Frolik explained that an agreement was made in 1989 with Northfork, Inc. for park dedication for everything west of Andrie Street. Councilmember Zimmerman stated that the plat was not filed in time and questioned if they should be required to pay a different park dedication because the original plat was not filed on time. Community Development Director Frolik explained that the park dedication was approved prior to the 1995 preliminary plat approval. Dennis Peck, Director of Development for Northfork, Inc., explained that in 1989, Northfork Inc. presented a park dedication plan that was approved by the City.
