A copy of the site map is attached. As you recall the <br />Pheasant Hills Homeowners Association (PHHA) has agreed to contribute $5,000 for this <br />proj ect. <br />We received the Rice Creek Watershed District permit for this project earlier this month. City <br />staff also secured an easement to clear trees and begin site preparation for the trail. We <br />anticipate having the trail corridor cleared by the end of next week. The Minnesota Tree Trust <br />will be constructing the boardwalk on site. Installation will occur this fall/winter. <br />We are also looking at clearing the voluntary Aspen trees between the playground area and the <br />creek to provide better views from the park area. There is still plenty of buffer on the north side <br />of the creek for the adjacent property owners. <br />We anticipate removing the portion of paved trail that is no longer needed next spring. Paving <br />the remaining section of this project will be considered next year. <br />Staff recommends the Park Board approve the Pheasant Hills Trail Project as an additional 2007 <br />Park Board Goal. <br />Att: Copy of Site Plan <br />sw /parkbrd/meeting info/Pheasant Hills Trail Project Update.doc <br />
