In order to impose recreation fees, the Planning Board must evaluate the present and anticipated future needs for park and recreation facilities in the Town of Walworth based upon projected population growth to which the particular subdivision will contribute. The population in the Town of Walworth is growing at a fast rate, that over the last several years, the Town has issued numerous building permits per year for new homes, that the master plan of the Town indicates that there is a major demand for new parks, playgrounds, baseball fields, soccer fields and other recreational facilities and that in the immediate neighborhood of the proposed subdivision there is a need for additional facilities. Based upon this need for new parks, playgrounds, baseball fields, soccer fields and other recreational facilities:
I move that the Board find (1) that a proper case exists for requiring the developer to show on the plat a park or parks suitably located for playgrounds or other recreational purposes; and (2) that a suitable park or parks of adequate size cannot be properly located on any such plat or is otherwise not practical. Therefore, a parks and recreation fee, in lieu of construction of a park within the subdivision, shall be assessed on each lot in an amount established by the Town Board and same shall be paid prior to the issuance of a building permit and said requirement for the payment of parks and recreation fee shall be noted on the plat.
