~ Anoka County Department of Parks and Recreation 550 Bunker Lake Boulevard NW · Andover, Minnesota 55304 Telephone (763) 757-3920 · FAX (763) 755-0230 John K. VonDeLinde NOV 0 B 2001 November 5, 2001 Paul Palzer Building OffIdal CIty of Centervllle 1880 Main Street Centervllle, Minnesota 55038 Dear Mr. Palzer:. The Anoka County Parks and Recreation Department has reviewed a preliminary plat for "The Shores" In your city. This development proposal could affect a proposed regional trail that will eventually be constructed along the west and south side of Main Street near Centervllle Lake. This proposed trail would connect to another proposed regional trail within the Rice Creek - Chain of Lakes Regional Park Reserve as shown on the attached maps. It Is hoped that Anoka County and the CIty of Centervllle will be able to construct this major Central Anoka County Regional Trail link through the city In a cooperative effort between our agendes. The trail hopefully will be 10' wide bituminous with a total corridor width of 30'. It appears that funding for trails within the regional park reserve will not be available for about three to four years. It may be. possible that some of these trail funds could be used for segments of this trail that are not Within park -boundaries. The Metropolitan Coundl would have flnal say In this venture. Please keep me Informed of the clty's progress In getting the trail easements for this trail corridor. I. understand that the Anoka County Highway Department may own some of the adjacent land next to their Right of Way near Centervllle Lake. Hopefully we will be able to coordinate a trail corridor with them. If you have further questions, please call me at 763-767-2865. ~k you, (-ACJv,. 6y Ron Cox Park Planner RC:md attachments cc: John VonDeUnde, Director of Parks and Recreation Kate Garwood, Highway Department Tim Kytone, Glenn Rehbein Company
