Lino Lakes Parks and Recreation Department <br />600 Town Center Parkway <br />Lino Lakes, MN 55014 <br />(651) 982 -2440 Fax (651) 982 -2439 <br />May 31, 2000 <br />TO: Park Board Members <br />FROM: Rick DeGardner, Public Services Director <br />SUBJECT: Review Request to Include Elm Street Trail in Regional Trail System Plan <br />Attached is a letter from Ron Cox, Park Planner for the Anoka County Department of Parks and <br />Recreation. He is requesting that the Elm Street Trail become part of the Regional Trail System <br />Plan. The proposed regional trail addition would provide a trail from the City of Centerville's <br />• LaMotte Park, through the Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Park, to the City of Blaine. Blaine's <br />Regional Trail would connect to the Bunker Hills Regional Park. The potential of a trail loop <br />would exist to the proposed Lexington Avenue East Anoka Regional Trail north to the Main <br />Street Central Anoka Trail, then east along Main Street to Rice Chain of Lakes Regional Park <br />Reserve just south of the Main Street bridge over 35W. <br />The existing trail along Elm Street is classified as a transportation trail separated from the <br />roadway. Anoka County does not have any data indicating the expected increase in traffic. I <br />would assume that as the general public becomes aware of Anoka County's comprehensive trail <br />system, this trail would certainly experience increased traffic. <br />RD:sw <br />sw /parkbrd /Review Request to Include Elm Street Trail in Regional Park System.doc <br />
