r ..l. r (! ".,1 Conformance with Plan Content Guidelin~s for Regional Recreation Open Space System. J~ The following is in response to the Metropolitan Parks and Open Space Plan content requirements. Centerville1s response to the following issues are as follows: Guideline 1 JI "Land use policies and municipal actions to be taken to minimize conflicts between existing regional parks designated in the systems statement and adjacent uses which exist or are proposed.l1 1] Property within the City limits and adjacent to or near the Chain-of-Lakes Regional Park is either undeveloped or developed' in single' family residential (15,000 s.f. minimum lot size). The proposed land uses will be single-family residential with most areas at the traditional 15,000 s.f. minimum lot size. . The only other land use classification found near Regional Park pro[>erty will be Rural Residential which is proposed to develop at a one acre minimum lot size with a 1 unit per 10 acre density. The property proposed for commercial and industrial land use is located in the eastern sections of the community, about as far from the Park as possible. For these reasons, Centerville .feels that the City Land Use Plan will impose no land use conflicts on the Chain-of-Lakes Regional Park. jj j; , I .]' tl1 Guideline 2 l ITExisting or planned improvements alid projects wnich may result in tax assessments on regional park property or which may physically impact regional park property. If ~ The only improvements that the City has planned for near the Park will be residential in nature (streets, utilities, parks) consistent with the proposed land use. The City anticipates no assessment to the Park property. ~'- ,- ., ~ Guideline 3 i ltLocal parks or trails which~, connect with or otherwise affect regional, school district, or neighboring local parks-or trails, including a description of where the link is located and the nature of ~e relationship to the other jurisdiction1s facility.1I The City may consider potential development and maintenance of a park cooperatively with the City of Lino Lakes. This joint effort could occur where Lal\1otte1s 2nd Addition (Lino Lakes) is adjacent to an area in Centerville which is proposed for single-family residential. This isolated 21 lot Lino Lakes Subdivision has dedicated park property of approximately 1.3 acres in size. Due to the small size of the park and the fact that the subdivision is much closer to Centerville than it is to any developable areas in Lino Lakes, it is felt Centerville could cooperate with Lino Lakes to create a larger, more extensive, and better used park in this area. f I l 25
