Ramsey County Park and Open Space Requests As reported on March 24, the Army has expressed support for a portion of Ramsey County's request for park and open space land. The Wildlife Corridor will still be transferred as anticipated. The Army is supportive of Ramsey County's request for the 500 foot wide trailhead that crosses the Arden Hills Army Training Site (AHATS) and the Primer Tracer Area with certain conditions that are still being discussed. The balance of the Primer Tracer area would be removed from the public auction and absorbed into the AHATS property. The 150 foot wide trail corridor along the eastern property line has not yet received support from the Army. City Staff and the County are continuing discussions on options for obtaining the trail corridor.
