By getting together with the county park staff <br />each of your communities has the opportunity to share with each other and county staff any existing, proposed and <br />future trails and how they could connect to the proposed Anoka County Regional Trail corridor plan or other <br />adjacent community trails. By developing a coordinated trail plan together, the public demand for more trails for <br />walking, biking, in-line skating, and other non-motorized trail usage can be met in the future. <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />This is the second meeting with local communities. Another was held two weeks ago with north Anoka County <br />communities for their input into trails plans within their cities/townships. After these two meetings it is hoped that <br />a trail network plan can be developed that will serve all of Anoka County and adjacent counties and communities. <br />You will be able to review and comment on the total county trail plan in early 2001. <br /> <br />Although the Anoka County Parks and Recreation Department has received numerous trail and park plans from many <br />of you, please bring any trail plans you may have to make sure we have the most recent ones. The county park <br />staff will supply a current regional/county trail map that was included in and recently upgraded from the Anoka <br />County Parks and Recreation 2020 Vision Plan. This trail plan shows possible regional corridors through the county <br />to connect to adjacent counties. <br /> <br />Please try to send representatives from your community to help all of us determine a comprehensive trail network <br />in Anoka County for the present and future. I would like to hear from you as soon as possible if your city <br />representatives will be attending the November 29111 lunch meeting. Complementary pizza and beverage will be <br />served about noon during the meeting. Please call Ron Cox at 763-767-2865 to let me know If and how many will <br />be attending from your community. <br /> <br />\:Z Cl <br /> <br />Ron Cox <br /> <br />cc: John VonDeLinde, Director of Parks and Recreation <br />Nick Eoloff, Landscape Architect <br />Jon Oyanagi, Park Operations Manager <br /> <br />Affirmative Action I Equal Opportunity Employer <br />
