4fAppendix A: Park Classification & Design Standards <br />The purpose of classifying parks in Arden Hills is to identify the components of the park <br />system and describe them according to: <br />1) what the typical uses are intended to be; and <br />2) which geographical area each park is likely to serve. <br />These service areas should be accessible to residential areas without major physical <br />barriers. <br />The park classification and standards are based on the National Classification System for <br />Parks, Open Space & Greenways. These National Standards are intended to guide <br />communities in the future development of a park system. They are intended to be used as <br />guidelines at a local level and to be taken into consideration with local community needs. <br />I. NEIGHBORHOOD PARK <br />Use <br />Neighborhood parks are the basic unit of the park system and serve as the <br />4t recreational and social focus of the neighborhood. They accommodate a wide <br />variety of age and user groups, including children and adults. They create a sense <br />of place by bringing together the unique character of the site with that of the <br />neighborhood. <br />Development <br />Neighborhood parks typically have a balance of active and passive park uses. <br />Active recreational facilities can be used for organized athletics, but should not be <br />over scheduled as to become a nuisance to the neighborhood. <br />Site Criteria <br />Size: 5-30 acres <br />Service Area: 1/4 to 1/2 mile distance and uninterrupted by non- <br />residential roads and other physical barriers. <br />Typical Elements: <br />o play equipment o open field area <br />o athletic fields o benches <br />4 o trails o landscaping <br />City of Arden Hills Comprehensive Plan - 1998 Page 50 <br />Parks and Trails <br />
