Lino Lakes Parks and Recreation Department <br /> ,, 7204 Lake Drive <br /> C I T Y`' p Lino Lakes, MN 55014 <br /> N C I T1% KE (651) 780-1885 Fax (651) 784-7227 <br /> July 28, 1998 <br /> TO: Park Board Members <br /> FROM: Rick DeGardner, Parks and Recreation Director <br /> SUBJECT: Review New Snow Removal Policy for Trails <br /> The Parks and Recreation Department would like to institute a snow removal policy for our trails <br /> system. This would allow residents to enjoy our trails system year round. <br /> Attached is the proposed policy. All trail segments are indicated as an A Priority or B Priority. <br /> Following a snow fall of 2" or more all A Priority paths will be cleared. Upon completion of all <br /> A paths the B Priority paths will be cleared. There are some trail segments within the city that <br /> will not be maintained during the winter months. <br /> Chemicals, such as sand and salt will not be used. Currently the underpass near Rice Lake <br /> Elementary School (under Birch Street) is salted and sanded when conditions warrant. This is <br /> the only trail segment where chemicals are applied. Trail segments that have boardwalk are not <br /> scheduled to be plowed. <br /> The trail priority designations will be reviewed annually. <br /> sw/parkbrd/Review New Snow Removal Policy for Trails.doc <br />
