RE: Chain of Lakes – Bald Eagle Regional Trail Master Plan
Dear Dallas:
The Anoka County Parks and Recreation Department would like to invite you to review and
comment on the proposed Chain of Lakes-Bald Eagle Regional Trail Master Plan, which is
attached with this letter.
As you are aware, the proposed trail is approximately 3 miles long and follows CSAH
21/Centerville Road north-south through the cities of Centerville and Lino Lakes. The proposed
trail provides a critical link between the two cities and it connects the Central Anoka County and
the Bunker-Chain of Lakes regional trails, as well as the Ramsey County bikeway system, Bald
Eagle-Otter Lakes Regional Park and Tamarack Nature Center.
The County is requesting input and comment on the master plan from the local cities and
regulatory agencies, as well as the public. The County will conduct an open house to receive
th
public input on the proposed trail master plan on March 25, 2014 from 4:30pm to 6:30pm at
Centerville City Hall.
Please provide any comments regarding this master plan in written form to my attention at the
th
,
address listed above or via e-mail at karen.blaska@co.anoka.mn.usby March 26, 2014. Any
comments received will be incorporated into the final Master Plan. Once the master plan is
complete, the County will request the City pass a resolution of support for the plan.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, please feel free to contact me at 763-767-2865.
Thank you and regards,
Karen Blaska
Park Planner

MASTER PLAN REPORT
Boundaries and Acquisition Costs
The proposed Chain of Lakes-Bald Eagle Regional Trail
corridor is approximately 3 miles long and follows CSAH
21/Centerville Road north/south through the cities of
Centerville and Lino Lakes.
The trail provides a critical link between the counties of
Anoka and Ramsey and the regional parks and trails
system. The Chain of Lakes-Bald Eagle Regional Trail
connects to the Central Anoka County and the Bunker-
Chain of Lakes regional trails, as well as the Ramsey
County bikeway system, Bald Eagle-Otter Lakes Regional
Park and ultimately to Tamarack Nature Center. Refer to
F1
IGURE
Figures 1 and 2 for location.

F2
IGURE
The northernmost portion of the trail, as shown in Figure 3, Exhibit A,
provides an aerial view of the proposed trail route connecting to
Bunker-Chain of Lakes Regional Trail on Heritage Street, two blocks
south of CSAH 14/Main Street. This trail segment provides a link
between numerous city trails, parks and regional facilities.

F3
IGURE
The central portion of the trail, as shown in Figure 4, Exhibit B,
illustrates the proposed city trails the regional trail will connect once
constructed. The regional trail will also provide a valuable
connection to a future recreation facility the City of Lino Lakes is
proposing.

F4
IGURE
The southern portion of the trail, as shown in Figure 5, Exhibit C, again
illustrates the proposed city trails the regional trail will connect once
constructed. The regional trail will also provide a future connection to
the proposed Birch Lake Regional Trail via Otter Lake Road and ultimately
to Bald Eagle-Otter Lake Regional Park and Tamarack Nature Center in
Ramsey County, as shown in Figure 7.

F5
IGURE
Anoka County will be building a portion of the Chain of Lakes-Bald Eagle Regional Trail in
2014/15 as part of a road reconstruction project along CSAH 21 between Dupre and
Heritage Streets in Centerville. Refer to Figure 3 for extent of trail construction. The
draft layout for the project is illustrated in the Appendix of this report. Any additional
right of way needed for this reconstruction project will be acquired as part of the road
project and will not be considered for reimbursement through a future Metropolitan
Council’s Regional Parks Capital Improvement or Parks and Trails Legacy grant funding
request.
The remaining proposed trail will be completed when the rest of Centerville Road south
of Dupre Street is reconstructed and expanded. Right of way acquisition for this
segment of the trail would affect 22 parcels. A list of potentially affected parcels is
shown in Table 1. Straight right of way acquisition is estimated to be $294,000, but, once
this Master Plan is approved, the County will work with the cities to require future
development of these parcels to include enough rights of way for the trail or to provide
trail easements across the parcels to keep acquisition costs to a minimum. While it is not
anticipated that right of way or easement acquisition will be an issue, if the small
amounts of right of way or easement cannot be dedicated when development occurs or
acquired, the County would then purchase the entire impacted parcel, designate the
needed right of way and sell the remainder of the parcel at market value. If whole parcel
acquisition is required, the estimated cost is approximately $4,367,800 based on the
current assessed value for 2014. Market rate appraisals have not been conducted to
date, but will be conducted prior to any acquisition or funding request to the
Metropolitan Council.

Demand Forecast
Regional parks and trails have been increasing in popularity, and as the population grows
the need for additional recreation sources and amenities grow as well. The populations
in the City of Centerville and Lino Lakes are anticipated to grow steadily, as is the overall
population in Anoka County.

Population Forecast
Anoka
Year Centerville Lino Lakes County
2010 4,918 20,216 330,844
2040 5,700 28,000 415,750
According to preliminary Metropolitan Council forecasts for 2040, the metro regional
area is anticipated to grow by 31% between 2010 and 2040 and in the metropolitan area,
seniors are expected to equal one-half of the total population growth. As the population
increases and ages demand for easily accessible outdoor recreation opportunities and
open spaces will increase.
The outdoor recreational use patterns in the metropolitan area have also been growing
steadily. Recreational visits to Anoka County regional trails have increased from 583,600
2
to just over 870,000 in 2012.
In addition, according to the Outdoor Foundation:
Outdoor recreation reached the highest participation
level in five years. Outdoor recreation added three
million participants in 2011 — a significant
improvement over the past few years when
3
participation either dropped or remained stagnant.
In addition, the Statewide Health Improvement Program
(SHIP) is promoting living longer, healthier lives through the
reduction in obesity and increased physical activity. Anoka

County has received past SHIP grants to increase access to parks and trails and increase
education regarding health, wellness and outdoor recreation. Refer to Figure 16 for an
example of a SHIP funded project. This project, in cooperation with the Blue Cross Blue
Shield “Do” campaign, provided park and trail wayfinding and healthy lifestyle
information.
In addition, user demand and the SHIP program has allowed the County to create the Go
Anoka County website (goanokacounty.org),
which is a site created to provide information
related to parks and recreation facilities,
promote access to those facilities to make is
easier to recreate outdoors.
Development Concept
The proposed
development concept
for this trail corridor is
to provide an 8 to 10
foot wide paved trail
linking regional
destinations in Anoka
County and the
metropolitan area.
These destinations
include downtown
Centerville, Rice Creek
Chain of Lakes Park
Reserve, a future City of
Lino Lakes recreation
facility and Ramsey
County’s Bald Eagle-
Otter Lakes Regional
Park, as well as
Tamarack Nature
Center, via a proposed
9
regional trail on Otter
F7
IGURE
Lake Road, as illustrated in Figure 7.
The trail corridor currently follows CSAH 21/Centerville Road and the development
concept for this trail is similar to Figure 8, which illustrates the roadway, a grade
separation and then the paved trail and Figure 10 illustrates what the completed project
could look like.
F8
IGURE
Trailhead signs, as illustrated in Figure 9, are proposed at a
few of the major intersections along the trail. The County will
work closely with the City of Lino Lakes to incorporate a
trailhead at their proposed future recreation facility, which is
approximate at the mid-point of the trail. Way-finding
directional signs will be posted along the trail as well. No
other development will be associated with this trail project.

There may be some cost savings on this estimate, if this trail can be constructed as part
of a future roadway reconstruction project or if right of way can be dedicated as part of
the future parcel development.
The schedule for construction of this trail will depend on right of way acquisition,
roadway reconstruction, future development along the trail corridor and funding
availability; therefore, no schedule for trail development has been determined. The Parks
and Recreation Department will continue to work with local cities and the Anoka County
Highway Department to implement this trail as development and redevelopment occurs.
Conflicts
Conflicts related to trail redevelopment will be kept to a minimum through proper
planning and community involvement. With any new development or redevelopment in
existing residential areas, there are common concerns among the area residents that are
adjacent to the trail.
One of these concerns is the effect the increased usage of the trail will have on their
safety, security and privacy. Generally, regional trails in the metropolitan area do not
have a high number of criminal activities related to use. A typical concern is vandalism
and damage to vehicles. The County provides Park Ranger patrols and works with the
local police and the Anoka County Sheriff’s Office to ensure the regional trails are safe
and secure.
Privacy is also a concern and Anoka County typically works with affected residents to
minimize the perceived impacts. Because the majority of the trail is adjacent to county
roads, development of this trail will most likely occur when the roadways are upgraded
and resident concerns regarding the trail can be addressed with any concerns regarding
the roadway construction. Anoka County does not anticipate there to be conflicts with
the area residents. If issues do arise, a variety of methods for mitigation techniques can
be utilized, with the best methods being determined by Anoka County.
Conflicts between pedestrians and vehicular traffic will be kept to a minimum by working
with the County Highway Department and the local cities to ensure safe crossings at road
intersections and driveways for pedestrians and bicyclists. In addition, signing along the
trail will alert users of potential conflict areas, i.e. street crossings, driveway crossings,
pedestrian cross-traffic, etc., and will provide way-finding and interpretive information.
12
Public Services
There are no new non-recreational related public services that will be required for the
completion of this trail. Both local and regional parks in the north segment of the trail
and the local and regional parks in Ramsey County will provide the necessary facilities
required for trail users, i.e. parking lot, restrooms, drinking fountain and benches.
Limited services will also be available at retail establishments near downtown Centerville.
Operations
th
The Anoka County Park Ordinance, dated January 24, 2012 regulates parks and trails
under the jurisdiction of Anoka County. Education and enforcement is provided through
the Anoka County Park Rangers, the local police departments and the Anoka County
Sheriff’s Department.
Anoka County typically partners with the local cities through either a Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU) or a Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) to provide for the
maintenance of regional trails. Typically, the MOU or JPA is executed prior to trail
construction and outlines what agency is responsible for general routine maintenance of
the trail and what agency is responsible for capital improvements to the trail in their
jurisdiction.
The County is typically responsible for the daily and general routine maintenance of trails
within regional or county parks. This includes mowing, sweeping, plowing, clearing,
debris removal, etc. Outside of regional and county park facilities, the local cities are
responsible for daily trail maintenance. Solid waste is typically collected from trash
receptacles located along the trail at regular intervals by the local agencies. Anoka
County will inspect the trail annually and will provide the capital improvements that are
needed and will provide the long-term maintenance required, such as bituminous
overlays, crack-sealing, etc. Trail signage is provided and maintained by the County.
Annual maintenance costs for the Chain of Lakes-Bald Eagle Regional Trail are estimated
to be about $10,000. This includes dollars for sign replacements, minor bituminous repair
and crack-sealing. Revenue for the operation and maintenance of the trail comes from
the Anoka County Parks and Recreation Department’s annual operations and
maintenance budget, which includes revenues from picnic shelter rentals, room rentals,
programs, parks entrance fees and the County general fund. Supplementary funding is
provided through the Regional Park Operations and Maintenance Grant Program.
13
Citizen Participation
Anoka County worked is currently working with regulatory agencies and local units of
government in the master planning process of this trail. In addition, an open house is
scheduled for March 25, 2014 to receive public comment on the proposed plan. A notice
advertising the open house will be published in the local weekly newspaper and on the
Anoka County website. Post card invitations will also be mailed out to adjacent residents
and local city and county officials.
Comments received from the public and the local and regulatory agencies will be
incorporated into this master plan.
Refer to Appendix for the public notices, letters requesting comments, comments
received from the public and from the municipal and regulatory agencies that responded.
Public Awareness
Public awareness is an important component to regional park and trail systems. The
County will provide public education efforts through the Metropolitan Council’s regional-
wide awareness program, as well as, public information maps, websites
(www.anokacountyparks.com & www.anokacounty.us), social media, publications and
brochures provided by Anoka County Parks and Recreation Department.
Accessibility
Anoka County continually strives to provide
equal access to all residents of Anoka County
and the region. Park and trail use is open to
any and all citizens. While there is a nominal
parking fee in some of the regional parks,
there is not a fee for trail use. This eliminates
any economic barriers for trail users. A
portion of the trail corridor is located along
the 275 and 285 transit routes, with three park
and ride lots along the trail corridor. See
Figure x for map of transit access. In addition,
the Anoka County Traveler Transit Link and
14
Metro Transit’s Mobility Link provide
transportation services for a minimal fee. This
service offers rides to specific locations and is available to those in need.
The facilities and amenities along the trail will conform to the standards mandated by the
Americans with Disabilities Act.
Joint Powers Agreements
Since regional trails cross multiple jurisdictions, a Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) or
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is generally executed prior to construction of the
trail. The JPA or MOU addresses who has control over the trail right-of-way, how that
control is exercised, who will operate and maintain the trail and how operations and
maintenance will be accomplished. The JPA outlines that the trail is open and available to
all users (not restricted by residence) with only controls on the type of use and
timing/season of the permitted use(s). JPA’s are in place for the duration of the trail’s life
cycle.

City of Centerville
2030 Comprehensive Plan
The Metropolitan Council requires a calculation of the net density of areas of planned
residential development that have changed since the last Comprehensive Plan. They
require a minimum density of three units per net developable acre. Only the areas
labeled A, B, E and the downtown area include new residential development and have
changed guiding since the 1997 Comprehensive Plan. Table 18 shows net density in
these areas.
Table 18 - Net Density for New Planned Residential Develo ment
A High Density 6.29 12 75
B Mixed Use 2.97 8 24
E High Density 7.40 12 89
E Medium Density 91.39 5 457
Downtown Mixed Use 26.73 8 214
Total 134.779 859
Net Density of new 2030 residential land 6.37
`minus wetlands, water, parks, and right -of -way
The Future Land Use Plan (Figure 15) identifies the land use designations for optimum
development in the City. Most of the remaining gross vacant land will be dedicated to
residential development. The downtown area will include a mixture of residential uses
and retail or office uses. Commercial land uses will increase by roughly 70 acres, and
industrial uses will increase by roughly 30 acres. Table 19 shows the acres
corresponding to the Future Land Use Plan.

Table 20 also shows the anticipated timing of growth in population and households
based on potential new units. As the City is nearly fully developed a multi -year staging
plan is not necessary as all remaining developable areas are within the MUSA or will be
within this planning periods. Anticipated forecasts for growth illustrated in Table 20 help
gauge the timing. In reality development in the City will be more closely related to

market conditions in the region. Economic conditions and other factors may stall the
pace of development, as well. It is not intended that the anticipated growth represented
in Table 20 be strictly applied. If the pace of development becomes accelerated utility
extensions will be available to respond.
Anoka County and the metropolitan region as a whole are expected to see a decline in
household size by 2030. The estimate for household size is taken from the Metropolitan
Council's System Statement for Centerville. Assuming Centerville is fully developed by
2030, the City will likely have 2,455 households containing 6,236 people. Some
estimates, such as that done by the US Census, show household size declining even
further, and this would mean Centerville's population may even be below 6,000 people
when it is fully developed. The land use plan developed by the City Council and
Planning Commission anticipated these uncertainties, and planned for a population
close to 6,000 in order to meet their goal of sustaining a population above 5,000 people.

Future Land Use Categories
The Future Land Use Plan identifies a number of categories to guide development and
redevelopment in the City. These generally include residential uses, commercial uses,
industrial uses, public and park uses, and undevelopable land such as right of way and
open water. The following are descriptions of these categories.
Residential Uses
A primary concern for the City regarding residential uses is to protect and enhance the
existing housing stock and to allow new residential developments that contain low,
medium and high density housing as appropriate. The residential areas currently served
by utilities consist primarily of low density single family detached housing. Existing
available land for residential development is either contiguous with areas presently
served by public utilities, or is within areas guided for redevelopment such as the
Downtown Area. It is assumed that public utilities will be extended to new residential
development as appropriate and in a contiguous manner.

1. Roll Call
II. APPEARANCES - None
III. PUBLIC HEARINGS - None
IV. OLD BUSINESS - Reconsider Findings and Decision on Interim Use Permit -
Rehbein Black Dirt
Administrator Larson reported that DNR had finally offered comments on the proposed
Interim Use Permit. He had asked them back in August, 2013, whether they had concerns
about continuing of the black dirt operation, and they responded "no" at that time.
However, their recent reply was that the location in the floodway would be a potential
problem and that the operator should provide a "No Rise Certificate" indicating that the
use in the floodway would not cause an unacceptable increase in flood stage upstream.
Larson met with Mr. Rehbein who stated that he would rather move the dirt pile out of the
floodway than spend the money on an engineer to do the "Certificate." The revised
Interim Use Permit gives Rehbein the option of supplying the "No Rise Certificate" or
moving the pile out of the floodway, but either way must complete his choice by July 1,
2014. DNR is okay with the revised language in the permit.
Motion by Commissioner Wood, seconded by Commissioner Lee to adopt the findings and
recommendation in favor of the interim use permit as revised and recommending the IUP
with the changes noted. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously.
