<br />City of Arden Hills - Comprehensive Plan - DRAFT <br /> <br />. ,Valentine Park - Complete drainage study_ and drainage improvements for <br />the future of the park. The following improvements are contingent upon the <br />results of the study: Add a looped trail around the inside of the park. Connect <br />existing recreational features to paved trails for ADA accessibility. <br />Reconfigure parking lot to detach park features from the parking lot <br />pavement. Add a new warming house/picnic shelter. Move the half basketball <br />court. Add screening for the outdoor bathroom facility. <br /> <br />9.4.2 Recreation <br /> <br />The City currently has an extensive recreation program. While the program has <br />been primarily focused on youth and adolescent activities, an increased need for <br />teen, adult, and senior activities was identified in the 2002 PTOS Plan as well as <br />the community meetings held for the 2008 Comprehensive Plan update. A study <br />should be undertaken to determine the demand for such program, the types of <br />program that are needed, potential funding sources, and the possibility of <br />collaborating with other public and private organizations. To help inform the <br />recreation program development process, advisory groups for seniors, teens, <br />children, and other interested groups should be formed or consulted. <br /> <br />9.4.3 Pathway Expansion and Upgrades <br /> <br />A number of neighborhoods in Arden Hills have pathways; however, in order to <br />provide a connected and complete pathway system in Arden Hills, additional <br />arterial and neighborhood paths are needed. While paths are very popular for <br />recreational purposes, there is also a growing demand for utilitarian pathways <br />that connect residential areas to destinations such as commercial areas, offices, <br />parks, and other popular places. Providing multiple destinations on a pathway <br />system can increase use, promote physical activity, and reduce motorized travel. <br /> <br />The 2002 PTOS Plan and the community have called for paths to be constructed <br />or for unofficial paths to be upgraded at the following locations: <br /> <br />DRAFT <br />4/18/2008 <br /> <br />55 <br /> <br />Ir D;i~t~d';'~#;'Rid9';';~~d-"-"-""----- -----, <br /> <br />Neighborhood Park (unofficial name) <br />- Resurface tennis court.
