Heading: The Hamlet Meadows

Text: The district court found that the Hamlet open meadow area was common open space resulting from the application of standards for density or intensity of land use in the development and therefore had to be set aside for the use and benefit of the residents and owners. For this reason, the court ruled that Glenbrook must convey the Hamlet meadows to the Association, without easements for cattle grazing. Glenbrook appealed this ruling but conceded in oral argument before this court that about 80 acres of meadowland below the rodeo grounds and east of Parcel C should be conveyed to the Association as open space. It is not clear from the record what area the district court considered to constitute the Hamlet meadows. It is therefore not clear whether an issue remains in regard to ownership of the Hamlet meadows. We therefore remand this issue to the district court to determine precisely what meadowland Glenbrook has agreed to convey and whether that agreement satisfies the court's order, rendering the issue moot. If the issue remains alive after remand, then this court, perhaps with the benefit of a clearer record, can decide this issue if it is again appealed.
