ACTIVE RECREATION AREA PLAN SUMMARY: The Site Development Plan as submitted by the applicant for the Apartment Complex notes 4 Active Recreation features, as well as walking paths throughout the open area in the middle of the site plan. Staff estimates 12,000 square feet of active recreation area outside of the walking paths.

The Active Recreation Area is required at a rate of 275 SF per unit or a half-acre (21,780 SF), whichever is greater. With this project of two hundred (200) units, the Active Recreation Area requirement calculates to 55,000 SF which is greater than the half-acre (21,780 SF). The Active Recreation Areas proposed are shown on the overall Site Plan, and the calculations are not provided (Sheet 1). See Summary Table below of Active Recreation Areas. Active Recreation Area (Article 5 §10.1) Required Provided on Plan 275 S.F. per dwelling unit or ½ • Playground (North) acre (21,780 SF) whichever is • Playground (South) greater to be provided on site. • Sport Court East o Cornhole 200 DU = 55,000 SF (1.26 +/- ac) o Horseshoes Required = 55,000 SF • Sport Court West o Cornhole Provided: 55,000 SF* o Horseshoes • *Need detailed size areas • Walking Trail 1 & 2 (runs north-south) to confirm • Rear Emergency Access Lanes • Bike Racks 4

Item 2. S-23-04: Leander Lakes III Apartments Active Recreation Area Plan Review for Parks and Recreation Meeting February 14, 2023 Page 3 of 6 Article 5 Accessible The recreations are in the central portion of the site plan to §10.151 the buildings. There are 2 children’s Playground areas on opposite ends of the common space. The 2 Sports Areas are flanking the central walking path closer to the middle of the central common area. Both these types of recreation areas should have connecting sidewalks to the play areas, as well as benches for siting. 10.152 Pedestrian oriented There are walking paths outlined in the site plan. Staff would like to see measurements on the linear feet of walkways. 10.153 Age Oriented The 3 types of recreation areas outlined in the plans show child aged Playgrounds, 2 Sport Areas and walking paths. • For clarification, can the residents of the Leander Lakes III use the facilities of neighboring Leander Lakes facility (Clubhouse & Pool)? This area cannot be used towards the minimum required area for this property. 10.154 Parking The parking is provided for the buildings and the paths connect to the interior common areas, though not directly. 10.155 Walking, jogging There are 3 bike racks on the site plan, but no details and biking trails regarding the number of spaces is provided. The requirement is 1 bike space for every 20 car spaces (Article 6, Section 3 of the Zoning Ordinance). 23 minimum bike spaces should be provided in total. 10.156 Setbacks The recreation areas on these site plans appear to follow the setback requirements. 10.157 Landscaping The site requires 341 trees and there the appropriate number listed on the plan. Specific tree species will need to be identified on the plans and signed off by a Landscape Architect as per Zoning Ordinance. • The Landscape Plan does not show tree plantings up the entire proposed entrance road Toulson Terrace. Calvary Church Plan C-19-06 has the tree plantings stopping at the line of the COZ zone. The trees proposed could continue from the COZ-1 line to the apartment complex area to create a tree lined drive. 10.158 Area The breakdown of the allotted recreation areas is not listed on the site plans.

The Planning Commission Public Hearing and Review of the Site Development Plan S-23-04 and the Recreation Area Plan is scheduled for February 21, 2023. IV. CODE CITATIONS: Dover Code of Ordinances, Appendix B – Zoning, Article 5 – Supplementary Regulations, Section 10 – Open Space, Recreation and Other Public Facilities (select excerpts). Article 5 Section 10 Section 10. - Open space, recreation, and other public facilities. The City of Dover shall require the reservation of open space, recreation, and other public facilities in accordance with the provisions of this section as a condition of approval for all one-family dwelling, two-family dwelling and multiple-family dwelling residential developments requiring conditional use approval, site development plan approval, or land subdivision approval by the City of Dover Planning Commission. 10.1 Recreation areas. 10.11 Purpose. The purpose of this section is to ensure that active recreation areas are provided as an integral design element within residential developments and that such facilities are of an adequate scale in relation to the size of the residential development and which provide residents with a variety of active recreational pursuits. 10.12 Dedication required. The commission shall require the dedication or reservation of recreation areas, and the subsequent construction of recreation facilities of a character, extent and location suitable to the needs created by a development for recreation facilities as defined and in accordance with the design guidelines set forth. 10.13 Definition.

Item 2. S-23-04: Leander Lakes III Apartments Active Recreation Area Plan Review for Parks and Recreation Meeting February 14, 2023 Page 5 of 6 V. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS The following are comments and recommendations from staff of the Planning Office following review of the Active Recreation Area Plan. 1) Provide itemized list size (dimensions) of each recreation area amenity including playground, sport court, and 2 pathway systems (walkway and rear emergency access lane path). Based on 200 units, a total of 55,000 SF of Active Recreation Area must be provided. 2) The Site Plan overall is showing pedestrian connectivity among the various buildings, amenities, and across the drive-aisles and the parking lot areas. 3) Active Recreation Area: As a residential development, there is a requirement for Active Recreation area(s). Staff Recommends the following regarding these Recreation Areas: a. Playgrounds: Plans submitted show that there are proposed features identified as playgrounds, but further information is needed as to what specific playground amenities are proposed. i. It should also be noted what material is intended for the ground cover. ii. Consider moving the south playground to the common area between Buildings F&G so it has more direct access to the parking lot. iii. Add fence or landscape barrier between south playground and nearby stormwater management pond. b. Sport Courts: The Sport Court appears to show features indicating use as a Cornhole Courts/Horseshoe Pits. Indicate the materials used for court areas. i. Connecting these areas to the walking paths would allow for wheelchair and stroller access. c. Walking Trails: One style of walking trail/path run north-south on each side of the stream interconnecting with the Rear Emergency Access Lanes (10 ft. wide concrete flanked by 4 ft. wide grass pavers for total of 18 foot width) creating a two separate loops in the central open space area. i. Identify surface material, width, and edge treatment of walking trails. d. Bicycle Parking: Bicycle parking should be located at every one of the Apartment Buildings. If any Bike Parking facilities are proposed internal to the buildings, then the Plans should note as such. i. Staff recommends adding bike racks near each recreation amenity like the south playground area. e. Pedestrian Connectivity: Staff notes that the sidewalk system could easily be extended in several locations to increase pedestrian connectivity to the overall development. i. The sidewalk along Toulson Terrace is against the entrance drive curbing. It would be more pedestrian friendly if there was a grass buffer area between the entrance drive curb and the sidewalk. ii. Make sure to connect the bike racks and the recreation areas directly to the pedestrian paths. Make sure to add sitting benches in the playground areas as 7

Item 2. S-23-04: Leander Lakes III Apartments Active Recreation Area Plan Review for Parks and Recreation Meeting February 14, 2023 Page 6 of 6 well as the sport courts. iii. Identify Lighting of walkway/path system. f. Pedestrian Facilities Internal to the Site: The layout of the proposed sidewalks internal to the site are generally good with the exception of interconnection to Leander Lake I. i. Add Pedestrian marked crossings where sidewalks continue to link to existing Leander Lakes Apartments (crossing of Isabelle Isle). g. Sidewalk Cuts: No curb cuts or ramps shown on sidewalks or near street crossings; add accessible ramps. h. Adequate Lighting for the Site: It appears in the plan that the light fixtures are only at the building side of the parking lots. Please detail the light fixtures to be used and add lighting to the back side of the parking lots as necessary. i. Landscaping: Specific tree species will need to be identified on the plans and signed off by a Landscape Architect as per Zoning Ordinance. 4) Clarify if residents of Leander Lakes III will have access to Clubhouse and Pool facilities located in Leander Lakes I (existing apartment complex to the east). VI. ADVISORY COMMENTS 1) This Site Development Plan set depicting the Recreational Areas are to include appropriate improvements, plans, and details of the Active Recreation Area as approved. 2) There shall be provisions which ensure that the community space (all areas under consideration for Active Recreation Areas) shall continue as such and be properly managed and maintained. The developer shall either retain ownership and responsibility for maintenance of the common use areas or provide for and establish one (1) or more organizations for the ownership and maintenance of all common space i.e., a Homeowners Association or other property management entity. The organization shall be responsible for maintenance, insurance, and taxes on the community space. 3) In the event, that major changes and revisions to the Plan occur in the finalization of the Plan contact the Planning Office. Examples include reorientation of buildings, relocation of site components, changes in floor area or unit count, or design revisions impacting Active Recreation Areas. These changes may require resubmission for review by the Development Advisory Committee, Planning Commission, or other agencies and commissions making recommendations in regard to the plan. 4) The Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement Committee shall submit to the Planning Commission a report detailing the recommendations as to the Recreation Area Plan.

There are 2 children’s Playground areas on opposite ends of the common space. The 2 Sports Areas are flanking the central walking path closer to the middle of the central common area. Both these types of recreation areas should have connecting sidewalks to the play areas, as well as benches for siting. 10.152 Pedestrian oriented There are walking paths outlined in the site plan. Staff would like to see measurements on the linear feet of walkways. 10.153 Age Oriented The 3 types of recreation areas outlined in the plans show child aged Playgrounds, 2 Sport Areas and walking paths. • For clarification, can the residents of the Leander Lakes III use the facilities of neighboring Leander Lakes facility (Clubhouse & Pool)? This area cannot be used towards the minimum required area for this property. 10.154 Parking The parking is provided for the buildings and the paths connect to the interior common areas, though not directly. 10.155 Walking, jogging There are 3 bike racks on the site plan, but no details and biking trails regarding the number of spaces is provided.

Item 2. S-23-04: Leander Lakes III Apartments Active Recreation Area Plan Review for Parks and Recreation Meeting With Addendum of February 10, 2023 February 14, 2023 Page 6 of 8 V. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS The following are comments and recommendations from staff of the Planning Office following review of the Active Recreation Area Plan. 1) Provide itemized list size (dimensions) of each recreation area amenity including playground, sport court, and 2 pathway systems (walkway and rear emergency access lane path). Based on 200 units, a total of 55,000 SF of Active Recreation Area must be provided. 2) The Site Plan overall is showing pedestrian connectivity among the various buildings, amenities, and across the drive-aisles and the parking lot areas. 3) Active Recreation Area: As a residential development, there is a requirement for Active Recreation area(s). Staff Recommends the following regarding these Recreation Areas: a. Playgrounds: Plans submitted show that there are proposed features identified as playgrounds, but further information is needed as to what specific playground amenities are proposed. i. It should also be noted what material is intended for the ground cover. ii. Consider moving the south playground to the common area between Buildings F&G so it has more direct access to the parking lot. iii. Add fence or landscape barrier between south playground and nearby stormwater management pond. b. Sport Courts: The Sport Court appears to show features indicating use as a Cornhole Courts/Horseshoe Pits. Indicate the materials used for court areas. i. Connecting these areas to the walking paths would allow for wheelchair and stroller access. c. Walking Trails: One style of walking trail/path run north-south on each side of the stream interconnecting with the Rear Emergency Access Lanes (10 ft. wide concrete flanked by 4 ft. wide grass pavers for total of 18 foot width) creating a two separate loops in the central open space area. i. Identify surface material, width, and edge treatment of walking trails. d. Bicycle Parking: Bicycle parking should be located at every one of the Apartment Buildings. If any Bike Parking facilities are proposed internal to the buildings, then the Plans should note as such. i. Staff recommends adding bike racks near each recreation amenity like the south playground area. e. Pedestrian Connectivity: Staff notes that the sidewalk system could easily be extended in several locations to increase pedestrian connectivity to the overall development. i. The sidewalk along Toulson Terrace is against the entrance drive curbing. It would be more pedestrian friendly if there was a grass buffer area between the 18

Item 2. S-23-04: Leander Lakes III Apartments Active Recreation Area Plan Review for Parks and Recreation Meeting With Addendum of February 10, 2023 February 14, 2023 Page 7 of 8 entrance drive curb and the sidewalk. ii. Make sure to connect the bike racks and the recreation areas directly to the pedestrian paths. Make sure to add sitting benches in the playground areas as well as the sport courts. iii. Identify Lighting of walkway/path system. f. Pedestrian Facilities Internal to the Site: The layout of the proposed sidewalks internal to the site are generally good with the exception of interconnection to Leander Lake I. i. Add Pedestrian marked crossings where sidewalks continue to link to existing Leander Lakes Apartments (crossing of Isabelle Isle). g. Sidewalk Cuts: No curb cuts or ramps shown on sidewalks or near street crossings; add accessible ramps. h. Adequate Lighting for the Site: It appears in the plan that the light fixtures are only at the building side of the parking lots. Please detail the light fixtures to be used and add lighting to the back side of the parking lots as necessary. i. Landscaping: Specific tree species will need to be identified on the plans and signed off by a Landscape Architect as per Zoning Ordinance. 4) Clarify if residents of Leander Lakes III will have access to Clubhouse and Pool facilities located in Leander Lakes I (existing apartment complex to the east). VI. ADVISORY COMMENTS 1) This Site Development Plan set depicting the Recreational Areas are to include appropriate improvements, plans, and details of the Active Recreation Area as approved. 2) There shall be provisions which ensure that the community space (all areas under consideration for Active Recreation Areas) shall continue as such and be properly managed and maintained. The developer shall either retain ownership and responsibility for maintenance of the common use areas or provide for and establish one (1) or more organizations for the ownership and maintenance of all common space i.e., a Homeowners Association or other property management entity. The organization shall be responsible for maintenance, insurance, and taxes on the community space. 3) In the event, that major changes and revisions to the Plan occur in the finalization of the Plan contact the Planning Office. Examples include reorientation of buildings, relocation of site components, changes in floor area or unit count, or design revisions impacting Active Recreation Areas. These changes may require resubmission for review by the Development Advisory Committee, Planning Commission, or other agencies and commissions making recommendations in regard to the plan. 4) The Parks, Recreation, and Community Enhancement Committee shall submit to the Planning Commission a report detailing the recommendations as to the Recreation Area Plan. 19

Loockerman Street OUTDOOR EATING SHORT TERM SOLUTIONS NARROWED ROADS “TRAFFIC CALMING” OUTDOOR EATING SPACES - By eliminating one side of on-street parking on W. Loockerman ONE LANE Street, the pedestrian realm is widened and allows for opportunity to have outdoor seating WIDER OFPARKING SIDEWALKS and eating areas. Creating additional space for pedestrians to sit and/or eat, activates new energy and activity on Loockerman Street. LONG TERM SOLUTIONS NARROWED ROADS "TRAFFIC CALMING" - These strategies work hand in hand by narrowing the roadway for vehicles, the pedestrian sidewalk becomes wider. Creating wider areas for pedestrians to walk creates a more comfortable space to walk in a group, while narrowing the roads reduces vehicle speed. Reducing the speed of vehicles on a heavily used pedestrian road increases the safety for pedestrians. WIDER SIDEWALKS - Expanding the width of the pedestrian realm (sidewalks) creates a more comfortable walking environment and more opportunity to enhance the landscaping within the streetscape with wider planting beds. 32 TRANSFORMING DOWNTOWN DOVER: CAPI TAL CITY 2030 | Master Plan for Downtown Dover | Dover, DE | Downtown Dover Partnership 11

Memorial Park Item 3. PROPOSED USE - Memorial Park serves as an open space gateway into downtown Dover.

Item 3. Reactivating Vacant Spaces RIVERWALK A More Vibrant Space for Reinvention and Play The Proposed Riverwalk visual highlights three parcels located to the south of Memorial Park that are potential areas to be developed into a river-walk along Saint Jones River. The top two images shown to the right of the Proposed Riverwalk are Proposed Riverwalk of the Potomac riverfront walk, in Alexandria, VA. This river- walk takes a more natural approach, utilizing asphalt paths and bank stabilization methods. The Potomac River walk is a great precedent for Dover to propose a river-walk while limiting the amount of development and disturbance along the river edge. The parcel on the west side of the Saint Jones River could also be an opportune location for a Youth Activity Area to be ollins developed on. Youth engagement is an important facet of the Dover redevelopment plan and promotes physical activity for the younger and older crowd, alike. Incorporating art into the Youth Activity Area, by utilizing the public or hiring a local artist, would also assist in establishing an art community YOUTH ACTIVITY AREA within Dover.
