From there it is proposed to head southeast around Amelia Lake to County <br />Road J, at which point the trail is proposed to head east and connect to a future Ramsey County <br />regional trail along Otter Lake Road. The trail provides a critical link between the counties of <br />Anoka and Ramsey and the regional parks and trails system. The Chain of Lakes -Otter Lake <br />Regional Trail connects to the Central Anoka County and the Bunker- Chain of Lakes regional <br />trails, as well as the Ramsey County bikeway system, Bald Eagle -Otter Lakes Regional Park <br />and ultimately to Tamarack Nature Center. <br />For more detailed information, the Chain of Lakes -Otter Lake Regional Trail Master Plan can <br />be reviewed at https://www.anokacounty.us/documentcenter/view/4659 <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Approve Resolution No. 14-79, Supporting the Development of the Chain of Lakes -Otter Lake <br />Regional Trail. <br />
