The Planning Commission may require that land be dedicated for parks and playgrounds or other recreation purposes. Such areas shall be shown and marked on both the preliminary and final plat, as “dedicated for park and/or recreation purpose.” The developer shall dedicate all such recreation areas to the village as a condition of final subdivision plat approval. The Commission may require that the recreation area be located at a suitable place on the edge of the subdivision so that additional land may be added at such time as the adjacent land is subdivided. In no case shall an area of less than one acre be reserved for recreation purposes if it will be impractical or impossible to secure additional lands in order to increase its area.
