Community Gardens The property that staff is considering for the first Lino Lakes Community Garden is located at the corner of 77th Street and Lake Drive. It is a vacant site owned by the city, and zoned General Business. Ultimately, the site is intended for development with appropriate commercial uses, but until such time it would seem reasonable for the city to allow a community garden as an interim use. This process will allow for a public hearing, so the surrounding neighborhood will have an opportunity to voice their opinions, and the use can be allowed until the site is developed. The garden will be controlled by the city, with rules appropriate to the use and the community. The term `community garden' will need to be defined, with a requirement that the use be operated by a public entity such as the city.
