City of Arden Hills – 20430 Comprehensive Plan <br /> <br /> <br />Approved: September 28, 201609 Amended: December 12, 2016 <br />9-15 <br /> <br />o County Road E (Lake Johanna Blvd) – The addition of providing a trail <br />connection (segment E & E.1) along the north side of County Road E <br />between Indian Place and Snelling Avenue North (Old S.T.H. 10) is <br />recommended to create accessibility to the Tony Schmidt Regional Park <br />and improve east-west trail connections. <br /> <br />o Highway 96 – A grade separated trail connection (segment I) may be <br />needed at a location between Highway 10 and Hamline Avenue North. <br />The grade-separated connection would provide access to Ramsey County <br />and Arden Hills facilities and the TCAAP area. In addition, a trail crossing <br />at the intersection of Snelling Avenue North would provide an essential <br />trail crossing to the planned regional trail and the neighborhoods adjacent <br />to south of Highway 96. <br /> <br />o Snelling Avenue North (Old S.T.H. 10) – A proposed trail segment <br />(segment F) from the intersection of County Road E and Snelling Avenue <br />North to Glenhill Road is recommended to provide accessibility and <br />potential future connections with city parks and amenities beyond the city <br />limits including the adjacent University of Northwestern Campus. <br /> <br />o Trail Signage – add small trail identification maps that include distance, <br />name, and standard city identification where needed. <br /> <br />Implementing the pathway expansion and improvement plan will require <br />cooperation with Ramsey County, MnDOT, the school districts, and other private <br />and public entities. The City recognizes that the entire network cannot be <br />completed at once; however, the above list represents the long-term goal of a <br />comprehensive pathway network to facilitate recreational and utilitarian uses. <br /> <br />9.4.4 Park and Open Space Acquisitions <br /> <br />While there is very little vacant land available in the City outside of the TCAAP <br />property, four locations were identified for potential incorporation into the City’s <br />park and recreational system (Figure 9.12). Two land parcels remain to be <br />acquired within the boundary of Tony Schmidt Regional Park. Additional public <br />lands adjacent to the park are proposed to be used for trails and trail connections <br />under cooperative agreements. <br /> <br />o Charles Perry Park – The City should consider acquiring the residential <br />property adjacent to Charles Perry in order to minimize the potential <br />conflict caused by reflected light, noise and trespassing while providing an <br />Formatted: Indent: Left: 1", No bullets or <br />numbering <br />Formatted <br />Formatted: List Paragraph, No bullets or <br />numbering <br />Formatted <br />Formatted: List Paragraph, No bullets or <br />numbering <br />Formatted
