S . Fish and Wildlife-owned Round Lake which is pro- <br />grammed for water fowl production and public education .

Fish and Wildlife <br />Service to enhance both areas for people and wildlife . <br />Hinseth said this park area would be a link in the <br />path system from Tony Schmidt Park to Rush Lake Park , with a <br />seasonal " path proposed on the east side of the lake , which would <br />not be utilized at times when birds are nesting and breeding . <br />Hinseth explained that Ramsey County is requesting <br />approval of the acquisition of the park ( 55 . 93 acres ) at this <br />time only ; development approval will be a separate request at a <br />later date. <br />Citizen concerns were noted as follows : <br />I .
