job of creating a"shared vision" and noted that everything is "doable". Mr. LeBlanc wanted to

different trail easements, and if the CiTy follows the Centerville Park and Pedestrian System Comp
Plan which is referenced in the Comp P1an. The Park and Pedestrian System Camp Plan specifies

Park and Pedestrian System Comp Plan. The last of Mr. LeBlanc's information consisted of the
information the City of Circle Pines distributes regarding trails, and a sketch prepared by a Mr.
Michael Pressman / Director of Planning for the "1000 Friends of Minnesota". Mr. LeBlanc felt it

Acorn Creek - Trail Update
Mr. Brown expressed concern over the trail easemerrt in the Woods of Clearwater Creek. More
specifically, is the easement platted, and if so, aze the homeowners that are building right ne� to
the trail easement aware that there is an easement ne� to their property?
3
Mr. Maxch explained that he has talked to the developer, and the trail easemerrt is on the plat map.
, Apparently there are some issues regarding culverts with the Rice Creek Watershed District. It is
the developers responsibility to notify a11 homeawners of the trail easeme�t, and according to the
developer they have been notified.
The Park and Recreation Committe� requested Ms. Lien prepare a letter to send to the Develaper
requesting he complete the trail by Decernber 15, 1999, due to the installation of the playground
equipment at Acorn Creek Park.
Mr. Porter requested a development liaison for follow-up with upcoming

APPEARANCES/AWARDS (Continned) �
Park and Recreation Bud�et
Michael Navin, Pazk and Recreation Chairmar�, presented Council with a proposed budget
for 2000 and the Park and Recreation's goals and objectives through 2002. He explained
that 2000 budget reflects money to be spent to enhance existing resources within the City.
Council member Broussard Vickers indicated that she felt that a survey should be done to
, incorporate citizen preferences. �
Mr. March stated tha.t he spoke with the Anoka. County Parks Director and that Phase II
of the Regionai Park improvements include running a trail from the interior of the regional
park to Main Street on County Road 14, but that probably would not be a reality in the
next five years. He indicated that the Parks Director would try to find out the County's
plan for acquiring property in the area of the home at the end of Main Street.
Mr. Maxch stated that before the City acquires property is to have some type of feasibility
study to find out if it is feasible to build a trail around the lake, where would it go, and
wha.t type of cost etc., would need to be done.
Ma.yor Wilharber and Council member Broussard indicated that ttiey would ]ike to see a
survey done incorporating more than the last survey and to incorporate it with the
newsletter. Mayor Wilharber that the survey should be developed at a workshop with I
Park and Recreation, EDC, and Planning and Zoning to get a survey really complete.
Mr. March stated that maybe some of the City's surplus monies could be used to increase
this budget amount.
Park Budget Increase or Decrease
Council discussed the Parks and Recreation budget and the enterprise fund option that
was presented by Michael Navin at the beginning of the meeting.
Mr. March explained that the Pazk and Recreation goals over the next three years defines
a purpose for the money and that the auditors would probably require a motion at the end
of the year carrying funds from one year to the ne� year.
MotioB bv Council member Sweenev, seconded by Mavor Wilharber to fnnd Park
and Recreation accordin� to the recommendation. Motion carried unanimouslv.

Re: Comp Plan Update
I'm not quite sure why the Par�c and Recreation Committee wanted to have this put
on the agenda, so I spoke with Mr. March for his insight. Mr. March couldn't
explain, nor understand himself why this is on the agenda. He stated the Comp Plan
is current and is not being updated at this time.
(I do remember the Park and I�ecreation Committee stating that at some point in the
future, the Park and Recreation Committee would have to set aside a whole meeting
to go over/update the Comp Plan. I don't think this was to be the meetiag though.l

Dear members of the CentervilIe Park and Recreation Committee:
This letter responds to your request for trails information in Centerville and the sunounding area. The enclosed
"Regional Parks A Map & Guide" illustrates the regional trails and trail opportunities in regional parks in or

Park Reserve. Please continue to work with John VonDeLinde, Anoka County Parks Director (612-767-2860)
regarding those trail linkages.
In addition to the enclosed map, the Metropolitan Council has worked with "The Lawrence Group" cartography
company in preparing a Geograhic Information System digital database of all existing and planned trails (as of
May 1999) in the entire Twin Cities Metropolitan Area. Please contact Rick Gelbmann at 651-602-1371 on
how to obtain portions of the database for your planning project. �
i
If you have additional questions of ine, please call me at 651-602-1360. Best wishes in linking the Centerville ',
trails to trails in the park reserve and to trails in neighboring cities. ',

Re: Future Trails
The City of Centerville is seeking information or ideas for future or existing trails in the
surrounding area. Please provide a contact person, if possible, or inform the City of Centerville
about any information or other sources of information you may have regarding trails in your
area.
In particular, the City of Centerville is interested in planning a trail system that connects to the
Anoka County Regional Parks Chain of Lakes in two ways and connects to the trail that goes
through Hugo. Note that there are plans to develop an extensive trail system in the Anoka
County Park Chain of Lakes and that these trails will connect to a number of communities and I,
their trails.
Hugo Trail Connection Possibilities
The City of Centerville would like to investigate possibilities in connecting its community with
the Chain of Lakes Park and the trail in Hugo. A trail connecting Hugo to the Chain of Lakes
Park looks like a win for Hugo, a win for Centerville, and a win for the Chain of Lakes Park.
The Hugo trail looks to be an interesting destination as this trail may extend some distance
(Duluth to St. Paul perhaps), and the Chain of Lakes Park looks to be an interesting destination
as there are resources such as the Wargo Nature Center, swimming beach, and other activities.
Anoka County Chain of Lakes Park Possibilities
The City of Centerville has already determined how it will connect to the Chain of Lakes trail
system on the southeast side of Centerville Lake through its own LaMotte Park. This connection
hooks to other trails in the park that circle half of Centerville Lake. An idea for the future would
provide for circling the rest of Centerville Lake, allowing a trail all around the lake.
Other Possibilities
There may be plans or ideas on other trails in the surrounding area unknown to the City of
Centerville. This is the information the City is also trying to collect to try to plan for the best
possible future of all the people and communities involved.

Please provide a contact person and/or whatever information or ideas you may have. The
contact person for the City of Centerville is City Administrator Jim March, (651) 429-3232.

cnrried unanimouslv.
To: City of Centerville
From: Wayne LeBlanc
' )ate: November 21, 1999
' Subject: Three City Concerns (and Associated Opportunities)
I have three concerns I'd like the City to address. If the City Council agrees, I'd like actions to be sent to
appropriate committees and I could track them from there.
1. The easement allowed for trail access to parks is too narrow. The easement access to Acorn Park, for
instance is only 20 feet. This is far too narrow to allow any buffer space to neighboring property.
All new trail easements should be at least 50 feet wide to a11ow for �roper buffer space.
2. As I understand it, the easement for access to Acorn Park via a small trail on the south side of the park was
not implemented according to plan. This access to the park is the only convenient way to get to the park
from the south, and, without a trail access available, people will cut tluough other peoples yards to get
access to the park. For the City to be credibte, plans need to be implemented as specified.
Trail access to Acorn Park from the south should be implemented according to the ori inal plan. There
should be follow throu�h and action taken to ensure that all specifications made bv the Ci are �
implemented. �
The attachment provided may not be the "official" plan but it shows the Acorn Park easement and other l i,
good ideas that have not been implemented, for instance, the Lakeland Hills "sidewalk" is only for 6 houses. I
3. The City of Circle Pines has 9.3% of its land devoted to parks (see attachment). The City of Centerville has '�
1.9% of its land devoted to parks. Every attempt should be made to increase public land in the City of �
Centerville to 10%. Centerville policy is to collect a fee if land is not dedicated to public use, or to dedicate I
10% of land for open space. It appears that far too often, fees have been collected instead of 10% of land I
being dedicated to open space. A consequence of having such a sma11 amount of public land, is that I
CenYerville is currently quite pedestrian unfriendly. But opportunities abound for making Centerville I
pedestrian friendly. I
i
Centerville needs to take advanta�e of the �nortunities available now to increase its public land area closer �
to 10% and to make Centerville more pedestrian friendly
Opportunity 1: The citizens of Centerville do not have access to beautiful Centervilte Lake sitting in the
middle of the City. Lakeshore land is "available" at the end of Main Street and also across the street from
Lamotte Park. These offer terrific opportunities to provide the citizens of Centerville access to beautiful
Centerville Lake. Purchase of this land will improve the 1.9% park land area.
Opportunity 2: The attached trail plan would greatly improve pedestrian friendliness and improve the 1.9%
land area. And, implementing the atta.ched trail plan is totally feasible.
Opportunity 3: Land to be developed in Centerville should be developed with the 10% land dedication being
done in 1Q% (or higher) land area. Don't collect fees in its stead.
I urge the City needs to address these concerns now, before the opportunities expire. Thank you.

Re: Reschedule January Meeting
I wi11 be on vacation the week of December 27t through January 4�', 2000. Because
of this, I will be unable to prepare/distribute the Park and Recreation packet until
on/or before Tuesday, January 4�' for the meering on the 5�', 2040. This will allow
you only one night to review, and me only one day to prepare the packet. I would ,

* The watermain interconnect is supposed to be on-line next week. I
* Curb and gutter has been installed in the first phase of Center Villa. The base course is
on schedule for Monday. I
* The park and recreation committee worked diligently to establish priorities for their I I,
budget at their meeting on Wednesday evening. This information will be presented to
Council by chairperson Navin at the November 24th meeting. I
* Lloyd Drilling has filed a rezone request for one of the Kenco lots. The !ot in question is
just r�rth of Center Street and is approximately #hree acres in size. Mr. DriNing is asking
permission to be able to construct a 48-60 unit apartment building. The property is
currently zoned for commerciai.
* Rick Carlson is pursuing his plans to develop the property south of LaMotte Park. Mr.
Carlson appeared at the Planning and Zoning meeting to receive feedback on his sketch
plan. Mr. Carlson is not sure if he wants to pursue amending the comprehensive plan to be
able to develop in 2000 or just wait until January 1, 2001. This decision is ultimately left up
to City Council. As I have mentioned previously, the City should not consider amending the
comprehensive plan unless the City stands to receive some significant benefit.
* Thank you to Council member Travis who has volunteered to level the pea gravel at
Acorn Creek park with the use of a donated bobcat.
* City Hall will be closed next week Thursday in honor of Veteran's Day.

* Gary Barott cailed me to ask if the Council has any interest in his property at $300,000.
If not, he is going to consider listing the property fior sale. I indicated that I had mentioned
the availability of the parcel to Council, but that there did not seem to be a lot of interest at
that price. Mr. Barott said he could see where people may think the price is high, but the
property has 200 feet of lakeshore. If anyone wants to place this item on a future agenda,
once again please let me know. I do know that Wayne LeBlanc would I+ke to see the City
purchase this property. As I have mentioned previousiy, i do not think the City should
purchase property with the hopes of being ab{e to install a trail around the lake until we
know the feasibility of such a prosect. The City can always condemn the property in the
future, if it becomes a necessity.
* Hanna from the Hugonian called me to express concern that the City was not taking a
defensive approach to stop the RCWD from plugging the culvert that runs between
Centervilfe and Peftier Lake. Hanna indicated that the Design Team vision was to have the
lakes connected with a bridge. I explained to Hanna that the RCWD was trying to prolong
the effectiveness of their treatment of the water in Centervitle Lake with alum. This
treatment cost approximately $80,000 and is only effective for a few years. The culvert
befinreen the lakes aliows water to flow back and forth freely, thereby reducing the water
quaiity in Centerville Lake. Once again, there has not been a feasibility study conducted
that would show whether a bridge over the two lakes would be beneficial. Currently there is
milfoi{ in Peltier Lake and not in Centervil{e Lake. f further explained that plugging tf�e
culvert is a reversibte process and is a short term project, whereas finding the funding for
constructing a bridge that would s�an across a canal between the two lakes is more than
likely a long term project.
* Enjoy your weekend! There's no snow in the forecast.

* Ted Peterson started employment with the City on Monday. Public works is ready for I
snow. ,
* I had a meeting with Willie Lessard this week. Mr. Lessard indicated that Lake Elmo i
bank wants to appear before planning and zoning with a plan to purchase his prope�ty I
south of his existing building on 20th Avenue for a branch facility. The bank president and
CEO have visited the site. He said they did not seem to care that another bank was
proposing to build within the community. This bank is building branches throughout the ',
a�ea. This bank is also supposedly financing the Odyssey Lures building. Mr. Lessard
said that Media Junction will be a tenant in the new Odyssey Lures building. They are
hoping to move into the building by June 1st of next year. Mr. Lessard also indicated that
the Dairy Queen that is to be built next to the Amoco in Lino Lakes is a true story. The
owner of the Dairy Queen is Mr. Lessards cousin from Hugo. His cousin sold his business
in Hugo (Lessard/Nyren Utilities) and purchased the franchise for Dairy Queen and the lot
next to the Amoco.
* Lloyd Drilling stopped at City Hall to request a rezone for the house (1873 Main Street)
directly across the street from City Hall. Mr. Drilling was approached by the property owner
to buy the parcel. The house is adjacent to the vacant lot east of Peterson Trail that Mr.
Drilling currently owns. If 1873 Main Street was rezoned to commercial, then the entire
frontage on Main Street from Peterson Trail to Shad Avenue would be commercial. From a
planning standpoint this makes perfect sense. In my opinion, the house across the street
from City Hall is somewhat substandard. If this property was rezoned, then a trail could
also be installed along Main Street to connect to the trail to be installed in front of the
11 / 19/99
current commercial development west of Peterson Trail. This would also help build the tax
base for the City. I am not sure there would be a favorable reaction from adjacent property
owners, but I think it could be a benefit to the overall community. I spoke to Tom Schlavin
(Chiropractor next to City Hall) last night about the proposai. He thought it was a great
idea. If the block across the street from City Hall would be redeveloped, I would not like to
see another strip mali that was a mirror image of what we already have in the community.
A public hearing is scheduled at the Planning and Zoning Commission in December.
* Anoka County has been cleaning many of the ditches along Main Street this week. It
appears that the ditch in front of City Hall and the ditch east of the fire hall driveway are at
a higher elevation than the ditches on the no�th side of Main Street, just east of Shad
Avenue. According to Paul and a representative from Anoka County that was on site, this
may be causing some of the drainage issues in the swale that runs north of Main Street
between the backyards ofi the residents living befinreen Shad Avenue and Brian Drive. Paul
was going to inquire about renting RO-SO's backhoe to muck out the ditches using pubiic
works staff. This dry fall would be a perfect time to complete such a project. It appears the
ditches have silted in about one-half to three-quarters of a foot.
' * I had three phone caNs yesterday from Caro! Charois. She is one of the owners of 1687
Main Strest (the big white house north of the church). She is pursuing her plans to remodel
the home into a bed and breakfast. She wishes to build a carriage house that would have
units above the garage area. She will be bringing in plans in the future.
* Reminder! Council meets next Monday. City Hall is closed Thursday and Friday. Get
ready for turkey!

Dear Mr. Travis:
The Park and Recreation Committee of the City of Centerville is requesting that the trail between
the Woods of Clearwater Creek development and Acorn Creek Park be completed by December
15"', 1999. This request comes with the completion of Acorn Creek Park since there are many i
kids already using the playground equipment. j
We thank you for your time and consideration of this matter.

Park and Recreation Committee
Report and Ideas from Wayne LeBlanc
Dec 1, 1999
First, conbratulations on the City Council budget approval for Park and Rec!
This repori is divided into 3 sections:
1. Trails letter to surrounding communities update.
Z. Concerns sent to City Council
3. Followup on last months presentation.
Trails Letter to Surroundin� Communities Uudate
Apparently there was only one reply &om Arne Stefferud of the Metropolitan Council. Arne's letter referred to Rick '
Gelbmann who maintains a database of information. I called Rick and we could get electronic data, but need a license and I
appropriate software. I asked about �et[ing a map, and be said he just needed a letter. So, I suggest the City send Rick
Gelbmann, 230 East 5`� St, St Paul, MN 55101 a letter something like the below: I
In a phone conversation with Wayne LeBlanc on Nov 30, you asked for a letter to be sent to obtain a map of plans in
our area for trails. The City of Centerville is interested in a map showing existing trails and proposed or planned
trails in the communities sunounding the City of Centerville. This would include Lino Lakes, White Bear Lake,
Hugo, and township areas within a 7 mile or so radius of Centerville. Any other information you can provide would
be welcome. Thank you...
I also talked with Phylis Hanson and Johnathan Vlaming of the Met Council and got several leads on other people to call.
When I outlined the rough plan to circle Centerville Lake and connect to the east, they suggested the City work with
Anoka Co�n[y to get the trails in the master plan (they may have used another term). They said the suggested trails would
fit very well and some are already in the master plan. They suggested Ron Cox at Anoka Parks as a good contact. ,
Concerns Sent to Ci� Council �
In the handout, is a letter l discussed with City Council on Monday, Nov 22. They sent it to Park and Rec. My purpose
was to make some of these issues more visible and I wasn't sure where the issues belonged (P&Z or what).
Here are some suggestions on what to do with the issues (somewhat reworded):
1). Trail easement to narrow or trail easement being unknown by buyers. The cunent width of a trail easement is 6 feet on
one side, 8 feet of trail, then 6 feet on the other side for a total of 20 feet. In my view, a Iot next to this would be quite
undesirable. There is only 6 feet of "buffer: ' Codes in the city say buildings must be at least 10 feet from property lines. I
suggest this needs to be wider. I'll not state a specific number. The other issue is people don't seem to know about
easements. From Acorn Creek experience, it is clear that the existing system is not working. Developers are supposed to
tell buyers where the easements are. Here aze some suggesuons: A). Ideally, infrastructure shoald be in place before
� houses are sold. Roads are constructed before houses are sold. Trails could also be constructed before houses are so1d. This
one ran perpendiculaz to the road and a trail on a property line perpendicular to the road, should not c;ause a developer a
problem. (A sidewalk put in before construction is a problem.) So, here, require trails be put in before anything is sold.
B). Require signs every 50 feet or so identifying easements. These would have to be' maintained by the developer. C).
There needs to be a penalty or conseqnence for developers who don't follow the rules. A huge cash surety (to pay off
people with a misunderstanding) or the ability to shut down the project quickly if something is not right. Most of this is
probably a P&Z issue, but a recommendation from Park & Rec is the suggested process, I guess.
2). Abandonment of the Acorn Creek easement. I got the minutes of this transaction thanks to Aimee and it happened in
1995. The root of the problem is #1 above. Since this is a done deal and at least one nearby resident (Aimee) said it's okay
as it is, I suggest no need to pursue it. However, something needs to be done to prevent the same thing in the future. The
precedent I see, is that about the only trail ever planned for the City of Centerville was abandoned. This is not a very good
record.
2
3). Land dedication for Centerville is low. In Circle Pines public land is 9.3°Io. Jim March called Circle Pines and asked
how much of the 34 acres was not marsh land, etc. and they said 24 acres. By percentage that is still over 6% of useable
park land being dedicated to public use. Centerville then also needs to look at it's figure that subtract�e wetlands and other
unusable land. But this is not really the main point. Centerville will soon be solid houses in every square inch of land
available in the City and T suggest, that for people to feel less crowded, more public land be set aside to benefit everyone
with a better feeling for the Ciry. It is the opportunities sitting in front of us that I am afraid will slip away if they are not
pursued.
Oppartunity 1: The citizens of Centerville do not have access to beautiful Centerville Lake sittino in [he middle of the
City. Lakeshore land is "available" at the end of Main Street and also across the street from Lamotte Park. These offer
territic opportunities to provide the citizens of Centerville access to beautiful Centerville Lake. Purchase of tl�is land will
improve the 1.9% park land area. There has been a su,gestion that a feasibility study for a traii around Centerville Lake
needs to be done first. I suggest that this ]and by itself would make a wonderful place for City residents to gather and view
the sunsets across beautiful Centerville Lake. Right now, the only attraction downtown is 2 bars, and that is not exactly
conducive to a family oriented outing. Park and Rec should give serious consideration to selling Cedar Park for purchase
of "Sunset Park" if money is not forthcomin� for the City.
Opportunity 2: The attached trail plan would greatly unprove pedestrian friendliness and improve the 1.9% land area. It
would also connect everyone to the pazk resources so that people would not bave to drive their car. Walks and bike rides
would be a pleasure instead of a life threatening event. �
Opportunity 3: Land to be developed in Centerville should be developed with the 10% land dedication being done in 10%
(or higher) land area. Don't collect fees in i�� stead. I
I
Followup on Last Month's Presentation
Here is the basic theme.
Developers will NOT create a plan for our City. By their nature, they are narrowly focused on their particular project. It is �
the City that must plan ahead and decide what it will provide its residents.
Centerville can decide that its downtown will consist of 2 bazs, run down sidewalks, NO access to its lakes, and an
environment that only caters to automobiles. It can continue to let developers call the shots and leave with their profits,
leaving an uban jungle unfriendly to pedestrians.
Or, Centerville can turn the tide on the urban spawl, and create a"Sunset Park," and upgrade other pazks (with the budget
approval t6is is in progress), and connect all these resources together with a core of trails the circle the City, circle
Centerville Lake, and reach out to neighboring community resources (Munger trail in Hugo and Anoka Park trails and
resources).
A positive decision to go for it must be made. It will not come from developers or happen by accident.
For completenes, here are the rough ideas from last month:
OVERVIEW OF ACTIONS:
1. Tn a month or two or less, establish a rough LONG TERM VISION.
2. Communicate that VISION so the city moves in the same direction.
3. Prioritize actions.
4. Work funding.
5. Implement the VISION in stages.
6. Refine VISION as necessary.
CANDIDATE LONG TERM VISION (See attached MAPI:
Trails
1. Connect the Anoka Park trail to Lamotte Park.
Plans and funding already established, I believe.
2. From Lamotte Park try to run a trail through or on the edge of the church property.
This suggestion attempts to keep the trail off of the road and away from residential housing.
3
3. Attempt to ensure a connection to the Wargo Nature Center.
Witl� #1 acl�ieved, d�is is acl�ieved altl�ough it may not be the "shortest" route.
4. Connect Lamotte Park to 20th.
Tl�ere are pla�is to add another pipe to an easement area just south of Lamotte Park straight east to 20"'. This is
apparently called the Centerville Interceptor project and offers an opportunity to put a trail running east/west
between Centerville road and 20`" starting j�st south of Lamotte Park. With the di� ;in; scheduled for tt�e new
�ine, a trail could be consturcted for not much more money. Now wouid be the time to install the traii, before
tlie land to ti�e south is developed. This trail is hi�hl�recommended for two reasons. First, it will allow
Centerville residenGe safe and convenient access to Lamotte Park. Second, when a connection is made to the
Hugo trail, this route is tied nicely to tl�e Anoka Park trails and it offers a route diat is not near a busy street. It
also runs close to a possible Greenway route, if d�at ever happened. In addition, a trail should also go along
County 14 from Centerville Lake to the east border of Centerville on the narth side of Main street
5. Connect to the Hugo trail. '
There are apparently plans for a trail to go from St Paul to Duluth through Hu�o. A connection to that trail �
would be possible from 20"' on a possible "Greenway" along Clearwater Creek easi, or, perhaps it could run on
County 14 east to Hu�o. Pezhaps both would be a benefit.
6. Complete a trail along Main Street. I
To complete the circle, run a trail from Centerville Lake downtown, to 20"' Ave. In the short term, construct a I
trail on the nor[h side of Main street (see Design Team plans) and in the long term, pat trails on both sides of
Main street (again, see the Design Team cross section plan).
7. Complete a circle route around Centerville Lake.
Property just north of tt�e rectory seems available for purchase. Anoka County is apparently acquiring this
property. This land is key to the Design Team idea allowing access to the lake as a scenic overlook and a route
for a trail to circumnavigate Centerville Lake. If at all possible, this land should be acc�uired for those pur�oses.
8. Investigate other possible trails or loops in the city.
20"' street may offer some trail possibilities, and there may be other areas where trails may be desirable.
(11/30/99 T6ere is plan of a trail from White Bear Lake to Anoka Chain of Lakes Park — check this o�t...)
Lakes
1. Provide lake access and a fishing pier at Lamotte Park.
Jim March ex�lained that some St Paul Water Utilit�lakefront maybe available for purcha.�e, and that it is right
across from Lamotte Park. The timin�,and opportun�_couldn't be better! Apparendy, the lease has been �
extended 2 years, so that would be the time to pursue this possibility. Public parking will be available in Lamotte '
Park and a fishing pier would be ideal. Jim explained that a$20k grant is available from the DNR. Peltier Lake
has a fishinD pier beca�se of similar grant fands that were available.
2. Provide lake access and an overlook downtown.
As explained in the trails sec[ion #7, lakeshore property just nortt� of the rectory is key. If this property is not
acquired now, the city or Anoka County may never get another chance. I believe Jun Mazch said there was a
Natural Scenic grant that miDht cover some of this cost. Also, Mike Pressman (651-312-1000) of 1000 Friend of
Minnesota expiained there may be grants available for such "more open space" projects.
3. Provide a connection between the lakes.
When County road 14 migl�t be reconsuucted, as it will need to be at some point, pursue plans for a bridge to
allow small boat traffic between tl�e lakes. The bridge or whatever the construction should separate bike traffic
from auto traffic to allow a safer circulaz route around Centerville Lake.
Parks
1. Connect Parks with trails as much as possible.
2. Development of Parks. Equipment grants.
Pursue grants and volunteer help. At Lamotte Park, instead of paving the whole parking lot, consider using
special "blocks" that allow grass to grow between them. For, say, one fourth to one half of the lot, use normal
paving as grass could not take constant use. But, the lot appears to be sized for the biggest anticipated gathering,
and for those occasions, parking on the "blocks" would probably work very well. This allows more area of the
park to look green, and, in addition, would reduce hard surface runoff pollution for the nearby lake. MnDOT
may have some programs for help in landscaping.
CANDIDATE ACTIONS
1. In a month or two or less, establisb a rough LONG TERM VISION. (See candidate VISION above.)
4
2. Establish any needed short term interim situations. (One that appears noteworthy is the interim trail on Main
street suggested by the De,�ign Team.
3. Communicate the VISION with possible interim steps identified so the city moves in tt�e same direction. Who
all needs the information? P&Z? EDC? Council? Public Works?
4. Prioritize actions. Identify time sensitive actions.
5. Work funding.
6. Acquire land as needed, especially if timing is a factor.
7. Create a Centerville Trails Map (similar to Circle Pines).
8. Update the Centerville Comprehensive plan to agree with the VISION.
9. Update the Park and Pedestrian Comprehensive Plan referenced in the Centerville Comprehensive Plan.
10. Use profe,�sionals and work with the engineers as needed for design and implementation of the VISION.

Minncsota ChapEtr, Dear Ms. Capra and Ms. Brenner:
Anrcriam Plunnirrg Association
�� We are writing to lay out the reasons for the Minnesota Design Team's proposals
,�tr'nnaota C1,apter, Ameri�n regarding County Road 14. As you may ncall, t6a Mittnesota Design Team was in
Soc;etyojilrndsca�x�tnl,itats CeniervilIe in September 1998 to assist the community in its effocts to plan for its future.
AtG.9
AmnioQn Institute o/Graphic One issue we were asked to explore was Anoka Counry's proposal for Counry Road 14.
�S. �n�� According to information provided W the Design Team, County State Aid Highway
1.0�1 o,u[ u,twn A�uuin (CSAH 14) is an A-minor azterial with the following traffic volumes:

College ojArchitecrure and 35E on the east and a point north of Centerville Lake on the west is scheduled for 2003-
t�,rdsa,p� A,d,;txrun, 2010, and that it was to be a four-Iane urban design. The do�-leg in the road,
University ojMin►usota immediately west of the downtown atea, would also be realigned into a curve.
MC�s Wt►ile the Desi Team is miadful of the Coun 's sa! to accommodate additional
Mfi�nesota Conrmunity � tY P�Po
Drurlopm�r soc�eey traffic on CSAH 14, we expressed sevetal concems with the impmvements. These
concerns are directiy related to the impact a highway wil! have on the city's efforts to
recapture its small-town character.
The Centerville community has suwngly expressed its desire to retain and nurture its
smail town character and to shape development so that its character will not be
compromised. The attached exhibits, reproduced from the Design Team's presentation
to the community, convey onr ideas on how to do that.
275 Market Stceet Those concepts are (Design Team exhibit # 9):
Sw� � � A four-lane highway. built to urban standards, wouid even more severely
, Minneapolis, Minnesota divide the community into two sections, one north and orte south of the existing
55405 higiiway.

• Residenu said they felt that crossing the highway, or using it for walking and
bicycling, is too dangerous. This is particularly true for school children at
Centerville Elementary School. The school is located on the highway in the
downtown area In addition, the schoo) is one of only two or three centers of
the communiry, and the Design Team members learned during the visit that
safety for all residents was an issue. The Design Team felt that widening the
highway would encourage motarists to travel even faster, thus making the
situation more dangemus for residents and for school children.
• Motorists traveling at higher rates of speed are unlikely to be amacted to
businesses along the roadway. The community expressed a desire to revitalize
its downtown area, building on its French-Canadian heritage and its smal) town
chacacter. This revitalization concept was reflected in severai exhibits for a
str�eetscape in the downtown area, reuse of existing buiidings that represent the
community's heritage and a community ceMer plan ihat builds on Centerville's
strengths and assets. It is unlikely that could happert if mororists oa a four-lane
highway are traveling so fast they are not aware af businesses in the downtown
area.
The Design Team thought that the County's proposal for a 120-foot right-of-way, I
accommodating a four-lane highway, would likely mean the removal of several
buildings, particularly in the downtown area, and would not enable the communiry to
Fealize its intention to_ retain a smatl town characier. tt addition, it would exacerbate '
what the community feets is an already dangerous situation. j
With tfiese concepts in mind, the Design Team proposed the following:
• An urban section between Inierstate 35E on the east and Mill Road on the west.
Within �s 1Q0-foot ri t-of-wav. there wouid be a two-Iane highway, a path
on both sides of the road for snowmobiles, bikes and pedestrian, and a ditch.
• A village center section bctweca Mill Road and Westview Street. Within this
�¢-foot ri t-of-wav, there would be a twalane road, one parking lane, a path
for bikes, and walkable sidewatks on both sides of the street.
• A parkway secrion between Westview Street and the northern city boundary.
Within this 60-fooc ri t-of-wa along Centerville Lake, there would be a two-
lane road with a boulevard median, one parking lane and, close to the take, a
path for bikes and pedestrians.
We hope that this letter lays out the rationate for the Design Team proposals for County
Road 14. �
