18.215.190 Open space.
Open space is vital to the health and welfare of the public. While it is probable that open space will be identified and preserved via CMPs, there may be opportunities to supplement it during development by clustering lots. The reviewing body will observe the following standards when an applicant seeks a development permit:
A. Area added to pre-identified open space is acceptable if it is directly adjacent to that open space and its use will not be hindered by obstructions or intrusions of developed land.
B. The city will not accept maintenance responsibility for any park, open space or preservation area with an extent of less than two acres, unless otherwise approved by the city council. [Ord. 847 § 2 (Exh. A), 2008; Ord. 817 § 8-3M.655, 2006.]
