see if they would be willing to sell. He doesn't think it's able to build upon. The current <br />tax assessment was both around 9K. Not sure what actual value of properties is. <br />Mr. Campbell requested that Mr. Wilkins should look into the purpose of the suggested <br />site. <br />Mr. Wilkins stated that it should be added to the park. Many people think it's already a <br />part of the park. They are parking on the private property but, the road to get there is the <br />"old belt road." All the bottles and the trash are thrown across the road on the other side <br />of the rock wall. If you are familiar with the area, the County groundskeeper has to clean <br />it up every morning. The use will be to just acquire it as part of the park. <br />Mr. Campbell informed Mr. Wilkins that, on the Survey Form he submitted, he would be <br />able to check all of the categories that applied to this property. <br />Mr. Wilkins then went over the Survey Forms and rechecked the purpose of the <br />suggested site. <br />Mr. Gilmartin asked if Mr. Wilkins could do a little more research on the property; find <br />out if it is in fact able to build on or not? <br />Mr. Wilkins stated that it's a matter of setbacks whether it is a classification of wetland. <br />The setbacks, he told the commission, already are overlapping so it's a question of going <br />to the Planning Commission and trying to get an exemption before he can do anything. <br />As far as wetlands, it is wetlands as to who has jurisdiction over that he doesn't know. <br />Mr. Gilmartin stated that it may be wetlands but how is it actually classified, the Planning <br />Department would have that. <br />Mr. Yada confirmed that it would obviously be wetlands but, it's actually a pond. Half of <br />the pond is private and the other half is on State owned land under the County Parks and <br />Recreation. <br />Mr. Wilkins confessed that he didn't know who actually formally classifies lands as <br />wetlands, is it the core of engineers? He thinks it goes all the way to the federal level. <br />Mr. Yada responded that it comes in when someone is trying to do something. Then, <br />they will determine it. If nobody is trying to do anything, there's no official class. <br />Mr. Wilkins replied that since it changed hands a couple times, people obviously have an <br />interest in it. He is not acquainted with the people beyond the Aina family that owns it, <br />so he has no idea what their motives or plans are. <br />Mr. Yada stated that maybe the reason why it changed hands so much is because people <br />realize they can't do much with it. <br />2 <br />
