<br />south of Mound Trail on County 14 is in development and a trail is planned there. The urgency here is to establish <br />the specifications for the trail so that development of the areas is done consistent with the inclusion of a trail as <br />shown. Note that a combination fishing pier walkway in Centerville Lake just west of Waterworks would keep the <br />trail separate from the road and also provide great fishing. <br /> <br />Area G: Wareo Nature Center <br />Anoka County Parks already has a plan to construct a trail from area H to the Wargo Nature Center in phase 2 of <br />their park plan. Anoka Parks also plans to move the fishing pier to the boat landing area. <br /> <br />Area H: Trail Connections <br />Area H shows the Anoka Chain of Lakes trail connecting to Lino Lakes to the west and eventually connecting to <br />other trails that will run throughout the Metro area and beyond! <br /> <br />Area I: Lamotte Park Connections <br />The largest park in Centerville is Lamotte Park located at Area I where a trail from Anoka Park and Hunters <br />Crossing connects. <br /> <br />A trail could run from Lamotte Park to Meadow Lane where there is also a sidewalk and this could provide a much <br />safer route for children to get to and from Lamotte Park. There is an easement along most of the route. In addition, <br />in a meeting on Dee 22, 2002, Father Fitzgerald did not see any problem with a trail to Meadow Lane and he also <br />thought there would be no problem with a trail on the west edge of the church property. His main concern was that <br />trails not go through the middle of the church property there which might hamper future development of the <br />property. He also said, with the vacation of Goiffon Road, that there could be an accommodation of some sort for a <br />trail to get to Main St. He suggested there might be a possibility that it could run by the lake. <br /> <br />Farther in the future, it would be worth considering a trail along the east side of CenterviIle Road where there is <br />currently an easement. Centerville Road is not pedestrian friendly and, in fact, quite dangerous. Anoka Highway <br />has no current plans that would alleviate the situation. Anoka Highway, with a4 lane Main St may go 1 or 2 blocks <br />south on Centerville Road with an equivalent 4 lane Road. <br /> <br />Area J: Centerville Trail South <br />A current easement through Area J is perfect for a trail to be constructed as this land is developed. A trail from I to <br />Centerville Road is complete through the Hunters Crossing development. A trail through area J would complete a <br />loop through the heart of Centerville. Construction is in progress in the Pheasant Marsh development to complete <br />the trail halfway from CenterviIle Road to 20th Ave. <br /> <br />Area K. L. and M: Water Utility Easement Trail to Future Lino Lakes Recreational Park <br />Area K has a St Paul Water Utility easement that could provide a trail between. Lamotte Park.and a possible future <br />Lino Lakes Recreational area at Area L. The St Paul Water Utility would allow such a trail Witl.1 certain conditions. <br />This trail could continue south on the Water Utility easement to parks and trails to the south, and the adva.ntage is <br />the trail is separate from the road. A wildlife area offers potential at Amelia Lake, in addition. . <br /> <br />Area N: 20th Avenue to 80th St (170th St N in Hueo) <br />A trail running north on 20th Ave then running east on 80th St (170th S1. N in Hugo) could connect with the Hugo <br />trail making another very nice loop. In addition, as the north area develops, the trail could provide pedestrian and <br />bicycle routes to possible commercial and residential areas along 35W. <br /> <br />Summary <br />As a follow on to the Minnesota Design Team visit in Centerville in 1998, a "Trails, Parks, and Lakes" committee <br />formed and considered numerous alternatives. The plan described is essentially the result of more than a year's <br />worth of citizen discussions and participation. The plan then went to the City of Centerville and is now being <br />coordinated with surrounding communities and other governmental units. Centerville, Hugo, Lino Lakes, Anoka <br />County, and Washington County are poised to provide a fabulous trail system with great destinations that provide <br />swimming, fishing, and a Nature Center, with other possibilities to follow. <br /> <br />55 <br /> <br />3 <br />
