The North Oaks Company owns approximately 50-60 acres in Lino <br /> Lakes. The idea is to develop an active park owned and maintained by the three cities. <br /> The land will be donated by the North Oaks Company. The City has had a difficult time <br /> acquiring land for this type of development. <br /> Chair Schaps stated that if the project is done, it would be smaller than the City's <br /> original plan for an athletic complex. The play area would include several ball fields, <br /> recreation center,and soccer fields. Another meeting will be held in a few weeks. The <br /> White Bear School District would control a portion of the project and the City of Lino <br /> Lakes would control a portion of the project. <br /> Chair Schaps stated there is not a park in that area.
