HOKANSON DEVELOPMENT' INC. HOKANSON DEVELOPMENT INC. HOKANSON DEVELOPMEN-F, INC. July 29, 1994 To: Marty Asleson City of Lino Lakes From: Kirk Corson Re: Marshan Lake project Dear Mr. Asleson: As you are aware, we submitted the plat for Marshan Lake Townhomes to the City of Lino Lakes in June. Because you stated that a park board quorum wasn't available, I am sending you information on it now for the August Park Board Agenda. The Marshan Lake project is proposing to m4ke a land dedication for the park system in the amount of 3.8 acres, provide a trail from the park to the lake, and provide a trail adjacent to the lake that will connect with the Shores of Marshan trail to the north. This new trail will allow access to Aqua Lane and the regional park area as well. The proposed park area (not including trails) constitutes 15.8% of the high land area on the site. This proposed park area together with the adjacent park area (park department headquarters) will create a sizable park with good visibility, access, and an area with a vast array of potential uses. The park area being dedicated is open high area on the flattest portion of the site. It is an ideal site for a park in our estimation. The trail proposed on the site will extend from the park area to the lake and will be located next to the lake on non wetland area. The site has already been delineated for wetlands. Runoff from the park, roads, and trails will be directed into a storm water detention pond wherever possible to reduce non point pollution impacts to Marshan Lake. Overall, the development of this parcel will allow access to Marshan Lake for many residents, allow access to an excellent play area, and provide a scenic path for trails. This plan will not only be an amenity for the adjacent development project but for the neighboring areas as well. 9174 Isanti Street N.E., Blaine, Minnesota 55449 (612) 786-3130 e Fax (612) 784-9136
