COUNCIL MINUTES DECEMBER 17, 2001 <br />Public Services Director DeGardner advised City staff concurs with the Park Board's <br />recommendation to condemn the necessary property for the following reason: <br />1. Discussions during the Trapper's Crossing development process indicated that Birch <br />Park would provide park amenities for the residents in the Trapper's Crossing area. In <br />1994, City staff and the Park Board were aware of the significant amount of wetlands <br />that had to be crossed to provide access to Birch Park. It was decided to provide a <br />crossing to Birch Park, rather than create a park within the Trapper's Crossing <br />Development. <br />2. The park dedication for Trapper's Crossing and Gemini Estates was 100 percent cash <br />dedication. The intent was to use this money to provide access to Birch Park. <br />Additional developments, such as Peregrine Pass, as well as the development at 12`h <br />Avenue and Holly Drive, will also benefit from a trail connection to Birch Park. <br />3. In November, 2000 City staff reached a tentative agreement with the Whitcomb's to <br />purchase two acres of land for $6,000. City staff was subsequently notified that the <br />Whitcombs were no longer interested in selling the property. <br />4. The land proposed to be condemned is almost exclusively wetland and is assessed at <br />approximately $500 per acre. <br />Public Services Director DeGardner advised the Park Board is recommending that the City Council <br />direct the City Attorney to begin condemnation proceedings for the two -acre parcel of property <br />necessary to provide a trail access from the Trapper's Crossing Development to Birch Park. Even <br />though staff is seeking authorization to condemn the two acres of property, they will continue to look <br />for opportunities to purchase the necessary land for this important trail connection. <br />Public Services Director DeGardner advised City staff recommends that the City Council approve <br />Resolution No. 01-172, Authorizing Condemnation for Birch Park Trail. <br />Councilmember Dahl moved to adopt Resolution No. 01 — 172, authorizing condemnation for Birch <br />Park Trail. Councilmember Carlson seconded the motion. <br />Motion carried unanimously. <br />Resolution No. 01 — 172 can be found in the City Clerk's office. <br />Consideration of Resolution No. 01-184, Accepting Donations from the Lino Lakes Lions Club, <br />Lino Lakes State Bank, and Forest Lake Area Athletic Association for the Family Turkey <br />Shoot, Rick DeGardner - Public Services Director DeGardner advised that the Lino Lakes Parks and <br />Recreation Department sought program sponsors for its Family Turkey Shoot, which was held on <br />Saturday, November 17, 2001. The event is a free holiday event for the families of Lino Lakes that <br />consists of low-key competition in a variety of athletic events for prizes. <br />4 <br />
