S Lino Lakes Parks and Recreation Department 7204 Lake Drive CITY' O F Lino Lakes, MN 55014 I KE (651) 780-1885 Fax (651) 784-7227 11 October 27, 1998 TO: Park Board Members FROM: Rick DeGard Parks and Recreation Director SUBJECT: Wenzel Farms Trail In April of 1998 City Staff again addressed the possibility of completing the trail system in the Wenzel Farms Development. This would consist of a bridge and a paved 8' trail from Snow Owl Lane to Ivy Ridge Lane. The proposal was presented to the Wenzel Farms Townhome Association members on April 27, 1998. The members voted to table any action regarding the development of the trail system. On October 27, Ken Swanson, a member of the association board, contacted me and indicated that the board has decided to grant the necessary easements to allow the city to complete the trail system. It is my recommendation to enter into an agreement with the Wenzel Farms Townhome Association with the following stipulations. The townhome association will provide the following: 1. Sign the additional 8' easement along the southern property line that was approved at the November 26, 1996 council meeting. 2. Approve a new trail easement along the western boundary of the development. 3. If necessary, approve construction easement for construction of the bridge. The city will provide: 1. Street sweeping of Ivy Ridge Court and Ivy Ridge Lane, where trail easements exist,two (2) times per year with additional sweeping at the discretion of city staff. 2. Provide trail signage indicating "No Motorized Vehicles Allowed". 3. Provide split rail fence along the southern property line of Lot 31. 4. Construct the bridge. 5. Pave remaining trail segments.
