REGIONAL PARK <br />Within the City of Lino Lakes is the 2,440 acre Chain of Lakes <br />Regional Park. This regional facility provides recreational <br />benefits to population well beyond the corporate limits of Lino <br />Lakes. However, the establishment of this regional park <br />significantly impacted the City by removing developable land from <br />the City's control, reducing available tax base, and establishing <br />a physical barrier that has contributed to the City's fragmented <br />development pattern and service area. <br />The regional park includes shoreline on nine lakes in Lino Lakes. <br />The regional park will prevent development within its boundaries <br />preserving the natural character of the lake it abuts. Table D <br />shows that the nine lakes either within or abutting the park have <br />approximately 167,800 linear feet of shoreland including islands, <br />of which 58,600 linear feet or 35 percent of shoreline is located <br />outside the regional park under private ownership. The proposed <br />development regulation flexibility is being requested to allow <br />urban growth in the remaining shoreland areas outside the park. <br />This flexibility will help to establish tax base and critical mass <br />to allow sustainable growth. <br />Lake <br />Baldwin <br />Rice <br />Reshanau <br />Marshan <br />George Watch <br />Centerville <br />Peltier <br />Wards <br />Sherman <br />TOTALS <br />TABLE D <br />LAKE SHORELINE IMPACTED BY REGIONAL PARR <br />Lake <br />Class <br />RD <br />NE <br />RD <br />NE <br />NE <br />RD <br />NE <br />NE <br />NE <br />Surrounding <br />Zoning <br />R -1/R-6 <br />R-1/R-1X/GB <br />R -1/R -1X <br />R -1/R -2/R -2/R-4 <br />R-1/Centerville <br />R/Centerville <br />R -X <br />R-X/R-1X <br />Linear Linear <br />Shoreland Shoreland <br />Including Outside <br />Islands Park Percent <br />(Feet) (Feet) of Totals <br />12,300 <br />22,000 <br />18,000 <br />17,500 <br />30,600 <br />22,400* <br />36,900* <br />4,500 <br />3,600 <br />167,800 <br />3,300 <br />7,200 <br />17,000 <br />3,200 <br />13,200* <br />11,600** <br />2,000 <br />1,100 <br />27.0 <br />33.0 <br />94.0 <br />18.0 <br />0 <br />58.0 <br />31.0 <br />44.0 <br />30.5 <br />58,600 35.0 <br />* Only 1,400 linear feet of Centerville Lake shoreline outside the park is <br />in Lino Lakes.
