The City of College Park performs administrative and transportation functions and hires two school staff who know the children and help monitor behavior for this after school program. The University of Maryland/College Park Scholars program also provides administrative functions as well as UMD Coordinators, tutors and day-to- day activities. This school year, for the first time in its history, the program has been 100% virtual. More information on this partnership can be found at: https://scholars-d8.umd.edu/student-organizations/lakeland-stars The Lakeland STARs program will begin its 25th year during the 2021-2022 school year. 012  4 Proposed Projects for the City’s Program Open Space Allocation for FY’22 013  CITY OF COLLEGE PARK, MARYLAND WORKSESSION AGENDA ITEM Prepared By: Katie Hart Meeting Date: 06/08/2021 Community Development Planner Terry Schum, Planning Director Presented By: Katie Hart Proposed Consent: N/A Terry Schum Originating Department: Planning and Community Development Issue Before Council: Proposed Projects for FY 2022 Program Open Space (POS) Allocation Strategic Plan Objective: Objective 3: Preserve and enrich our environment and natural beauty to attract people and sustain our City’s future. Background/Justification: The City of College Park received notice of an allocation of $288,975.77 for FY2022 POS funding. While a 50/50 split between acquisition and development is typically required, this year we were advised that our entire FY2022 allocation can be used for development projects. Program Open Space requires a 25% cash match for development projects and no required match for acquisition projects. An Annual Program must be submitted and accepted by the Parks and Recreation Department of the M-NCPPC prior to applying to the State Board of Public Works to encumber funds for specific projects. The Annual Program is due June 18, 2021. Last year’s Annual Program (Attachment 1) shows the current allocation of funds. For acquisition projects, the Hollywood Gateway Park Expansion and College Park Woods Swim Club have been completed and have unused allocations totaling $76,914. The Sentinel Swamp Sanctuary property has been confirmed to be in City right-of-way making acquisition unnecessary, saving $150,000. The remaining project is called Neighborhood Open Space Acquisition, which is a “holding” category until specific sites are identified. There is $640,773.90 available for this project. The total existing acquisition allocation available including the unused and reprogrammed funding and excluding this year’s allocation $867,687.90. For development projects, Duvall Field Renovation (Phase 1) and Hollywood Gateway Park are completed, leaving only the Hollywood Wellness Trail funded for $94,712. An additional $75,802.39 is available from unspent and reverted funds from Duvall Field, bringing the total existing development allocation available, excluding this year’s allocation, to $170,514.39. Council input is needed to determine how to utilize and prioritize our POS allocations going forward. Last year staff presented 3 properties to be considered for purchase, but none were selected: 4700 Edgewood Road, Branchville Road and 5100 Roanoke Place. Recently, contact was made with the owner of 8807 and 8811 Rhode Island Avenue, also known as the Washington Post properties, who indicated an interest in selling. Properties acquired with POS funds must remain as parks, recreation use or open space in perpetuity. Property could also be used for planting trees to increase the City’s tree canopy coverage. The 4700 Edgewood Road and the Rhode Island Avenue properties have some potential for development, but the others do not. Possible new projects for development include design and construction of improvements at the Sentinel Swamp Sanctuary and the College Park Swim Club property. Staff recommends prioritizing POS acquisition to encumber fund allocations dating back to FY 2008. Funds 014 not encumbered for specific projects and approved by the Maryland Board of Public Works risk being recaptured by the State. Staff also recommends that Duvall Field reverted funds ($75,809.39) be placed in a Phase 2 Duvall renovation project. These funds would supplement City CIP funding, if needed. Consideration might also be given to the design and construction of improvements at the Sentinel Swamp Sanctuary and the College Park Swim Club property. In total, the City has $1,327,178.06 available in past and current POS allocations, all of which could be used for acquisition projects, and up to $459,497.16 for development projects. Fiscal Impact: Acquisition projects are 100% funded under POS and development projects require a 25% cash match of City funds. Council Options: 1. Use entire allocation (past and present) for acquisition projects ($1,327,178.06). 2. Use $459,497.16 for development projects and the balance of $867,681.06 for acquisition projects. Development allocations could be distributed as follows: retain funds for Hollywood Fitness Trail ($94,712), establish a Phase 2 Duvall Field renovation project (use $75,809.39 of reverted funds), establish a new Sentinel Swamp Sanctuary design and construction project ($150,000), establish a new design and construction project for the College Park Woods Swim Club property ($138,975.77). 3. Allocate funding in different amounts or to other projects. Staff Recommendation: This item is for Council discussion. Recommended Motion: N/A Attachments: 1.

Halpern, P.E. Meeting Date: 06/08/2021 City Engineer Presented By: Bill Gardiner Proposed Consent: N/A Interim City Manager Originating Department: Department of Public Works Issue Before Council: Discussion of whether to accept jurisdiction of Wake Forest Path and discussion of policy regarding dedicated rights-of-way. Strategic Plan Objective: 1. Innovate and improve City services to enhance quality, value, and accessibility for all our residents. Background/Justification: Councilmember John Rigg was contacted by a constituent regarding the maintenance of two large trees located between 6910 and 7000 Wake Forest Drive. The trees are located within an “unimproved 6-ft wide path” (per a 1928 plat and a recent survey) that extends from Wake Forest Drive to Carleton Terrace. The adjoining owners to this particular right-of-way have not encroached or built upon it, blocked access to it, or otherwise asserted control over it. There is no record that the City accepted jurisdiction and control over this dedicated right-of-way. Only if, and when, the local jurisdiction accepts jurisdiction and control over the right-of-way (ROW) does it become the local jurisdiction’s responsibility. The City cannot petition to “abandon” a ROW if it is not an adjacent owner, but adjacent owners may do so and if the petition to abandon is accepted the ROW would be divided equally for the adjoining owners. Additionally, in some situations a ROW is abandoned if the local jurisdiction does not accept it within a specific period of time. In 2003 the City adopted a policy on this and related issues (see attached). Page three (“B. PLATTED OR DEDICATED RIGHTS OF WAY”) pertains to this situation but does not specifically address it. The adjoining owners have not requested to encroach on the ROW and have not requested the City’s support for a petition to abandon the ROW. At this point one adjoining owner has requested the City maintain a tree located within the ROW. The Council could support the City accepting this ROW and begin maintenance of it or support the adjoining owners to petition for abandonment of the ROW. City staff do not believe there is a strong public interest in accepting and maintaining this ROW for public access and use. To resolve the current issue, Council could consider having the City provide tree maintenance (or reimburse the adjoining owner for tree maintenance costs) in return for a commitment that the owners file a petition to abandon the ROW. Additionally, the Council may wish to amend the Encroachment policy to address this type of situation as well as situations in which adjoining owners have encroached on ROW that the City has not accepted, and the owners also have not requested a license to use from the City nor requested abandonment of the ROW. Fiscal Impact: The cost of any tree work would be covered by existing operating funds. Council Options: 1. Agree in principle to cover the immediate tree care costs in return for a petition to abandon the ROW. 2. Formally accept jurisdiction of the Wake Forest Path and maintain it. 3. Take no action. 019 Staff Recommendation: Option #1 Recommended Motion: N/A Attachments: 1. 2003 City Encroachment Policy 2. Survey of path 3. Photos of ROW area and adjoining houses 5 COVER Wake Forest Path Agenda Item 6.8.21.Docx2 020  Adopted by Mayor & Council on February 25, 2003 ENCROACHMENT POLICY CITY OWNED PROPERTY AND PLATTED OR DEDICATED RIGHTS OF WAY The City is confronted with situations in which certain private property owners have relied upon the use of City property or platted or dedicated rights of way in order to provide access parking facilities, to construct fences, and make other uses. In addition, certain platted rights of way have been dedicated to the public use or way, and questions have arisen as to whether the city is exercising, or wishes to exercise, control and is responsible for maintenance of those rights of way. Many instances of encroachment have a long historical background and the encroachments may have occurred without knowledge of the current property owners. It is the duty of the Mayor and City Council (herein the "City") to protect and preserve City-owned property, and certain platted or dedicated rights of way, from encroachments in the interest of all residents of the City. A. CITY OWNED PROPERTY The City, reaffirming its position that it retains fee ownership of the property on which an encroachment has occurred, is establishing a policy which will protect the property rights of the City. To implement that purpose, the City hereby establishes the following policy for encroachments on City owned property and rights of way: 1. City staff will identify all properties and City owned rights of way on which encroachment has occurred and will define the precise areas of encroachment. 2. The City will notify property owners of encroachments, reasserting the City's absolute title to the encroached areas and advising the property owners of the City's right to remove the encroachments. 3. Where such encroachments exist, the City hereby establishes an application process whereby the owner of abutting property encroaching on City land may apply to the City for a revocable license to continue using such property upon the following conditions: (a) The owner shall establish that the encroachment has been open and notorious and has existed for a period of not less than five years prior to notification. (b) The owner shall establish a need for the continued use of the property as either essential or necessary to the continued use and enjoyment of the owner's property. 021 (c) The owner shall define the encroachment area and establish that the encroachment is the minimum area necessary to accomplish the use required by the owner. (d) The owner shall establish that there are no alternatives available to the owner to meet the needs satisfied by the encroachment area. (e) The owner shall identify the current use of the property including but not limited to the storage, manufacture, distribution, display, advertising, or hazardous materials usage. (f) The application shall contain such information as may be requested by the City and be accompanied by an unrefundable fee of One Hundred ($100.00) Dollars which from time to time, may be adjusted by the Mayor and City Council. The city shall also require an annual license fee based upon City estimates of the assessed value of the encroached area. 4. In the event of a request for license, City staff shall verify the following: (a) the encroachment exists and it is the minimum necessary to meet the requirements of the owner for the use of the owner's property. (b) the owner has no feasible alternatives to meet the requirements met by the encroachment for the use of the owner's property. (c) the area of encroachment will be defined with or without formal survey, using the best techniques available to City staff. (d) The encroachment does not interfere with the City's use of its property. 5. Upon termination or revocation of license, the owner shall, if requested by the City, remove all permanent structures that exist on the encroached area. 6. Continued use shall be subject to execution by the owner of a property license, payment of the annual fee and other restrictions deemed appropriate by the City. 7. Failure of the owner to execute a property license agreement within sixty (60) days after the grant of the license by the City shall be deemed abandonment of the license and the owner shall be ordered by the City to cease all use of the encroached area as required by this policy. 022 8. Any license which may be granted by the City shall be exclusive to the owner of the property; sale or transfer of the property shall result in immediate revocation of the license; successors and interest in the property shall be required to initiate new license requests to continue using the encroached area. 9. No changes in use or expansion of the encroached areas shall be permitted. 10. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as a limitation on the authority of the City to exercise its absolute discretion in granting or rejecting license requests. 11. Licenses shall be granted and shall be revocable in the sole discretion of the City. 12. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to authorize use of City property for any purpose whatsoever without the consent of the City, which authority shall be exercised by the city in a manner consistent with its authority to acquire and dispose of property in accordance with established legal principles. B. PLATTED OR DEDICATED RIGHTS OF WAY Certain rights of way exist in the City which have been platted and/or dedicated to the public use or way, but which are not titled in the name of the City. Such rights of way include, but are not limited to, “paper streets”, pathways, dedicated parks, and alleyways. The following procedure is to be followed when an encroachment on such right of way is identified by the City, and when a determination of whether City services are available for such right of way is requested or becomes necessary. 1. Rights Of Way That Are Under The Control Or Maintenance Of The City. When a use has been identified that may encroach on rights of way over which the City has exercised control or maintenance, the City will proceed as follows: (a) The City will determine whether the use, and any property or objects involved, in fact encroach on the right of way. In making this determination, the City may survey the area, and use any other relevant information. (b) If the City determines that the use, and any property or objects involved, are encroaching on the right of way, it may notify the user of the encroachment and require removal within a reasonable time, as 023  determined by the city in its sole discretion and based on relevant circumstances. Such notice shall be by regular mail to a known user, and by posting if the user is unknown. (c) Any encroachment not removed by the user within the prescribed time may be removed and disposed of by the City, which shall not be responsible for any damage to the encroaching use or property. The user shall reimburse the city for costs associated with removal and disposal. (d) Failure by the City at any given time to demand removal of any encroachment shall not constitute a waiver of any of the City’s right to control or maintain any right of way. 2. Other Rights Of Way At any time, and from time to time, the City may commence exercise of control and maintenance of a right of way within the City. Once the City has done so, the provisions of this Section B shall apply. 3. Private Use Or Abandonment Of Rights Of Way An individual, corporation or other entity may request permission to use or encroach upon all or a portion of a right of way, or the City’s support for abandonment of all or a portion thereof. In considering such a request, the City will proceed as follows: (a) The requesting party shall submit an application with a recent property survey that shows the specific dimensions of the property and the proposed encroachment. (b) The City will review the application to ascertain its compatibility with the surrounding area including how it would affect the City’s comprehensive plan, the usability or enjoyment of adjoining parcels, the extent to which the proposed encroachment is justifiable, to what extent it would diminish the public’s enjoyment or use, the adverse affect on the existing right-of-way and any potential hazard to public safety. (c) At a public meeting the City Council will determine if it is in the best interest of the City to: i. Deny the application and require removal of the encroachment; ii. Support a petition to the Maryland National Capital Park And Planning Commission to vacate the property and add it to the tax roles; 024  iii. Take no action. 4. Request For City Services The City may require any individual or entity asserting that an area is part of a public right-of-way under control and maintenance of the City and seeking municipal services to provide a certified survey of the area. The City shall verify the validity of the assertion and determine the extent to which municipal services may be provided. In its discretion, the City may provide surveys or other documentation verifying the status of the property. Adjacent property owners shall be given notice to remove any impediments and encroachments, including fences and other structures, which impede the City’s ability to perform services. 025  Property Line Exhibit to identify Tree Locations Whiteoak Path between Carleton Terrace and Wake Forest Drive College Park Berwyn (21st) District Prince George's County, Maryland May,2021 Scale: 1" = 30' '------'/ 38 \ #7002 \ CARL TON GREEN 19:: I § a ..._, 37 \ ------Rebar and cap held 36 Rebar and cap -8-"""":""-+---+ DREXEL ROAD / / , '~////~~~////////~ f E ...' 0 CPJ ~~.:~~~~m:J~~~~-~~n~-~~~.~~~c~t~=~'su~~~: Associates 1751 Elton Rd.. ste. 300 silver spring.
