OLD BUSINESS: REQUESTED NAMING RIGHTS INFORMATION: At a previous meeting Paul Montain mentioned that other communities such as Lakeville and Farmington appeared to be allowing businesses to name the parks.

The first three parks are named after families that had dedicated the land. The City of Farmington does not have any parks named after businesses.

As the project continues, I anticipate the Park Board to become involved with the development of the community greens area and possible trail connections. sw /parkbrd /meeting info /Legacy at Wood's Edge Update (The Village).doc • • • • MEMORANDUM DATE: January 30, 2004 TO: Park Board FROM: Michael Grochala, Community Development Director RE: Legacy at Woods Edge BACKGROUND In 1998 the City of Lino Lakes, following award of a Metropolitan Council Livable Communities Planning Grant, retained the services of the Calthorpe Associates to design a Master Plan for the City's Town Center District. The purpose of the Lino Lakes "Town Center" development is to provide for the orderly and integrated development of a high - quality Town Center which includes a mix of shops, offices, entertainment, housing, recreation, community facilities, and open space. The mix of uses is designed to implement the principles of the Livable Communities Act and the City's Comprehensive Plan by creating a Town Center for the community and providing more diverse, life -cycle housing — including affordable and rental housing — within an active and interesting pedestrian- oriented community. The development is a cooperative effort that will leverage public and private investment to create sustainable value, ecologically, economically and culturally. The City has concentrated its efforts to implement this plan on the land located adjacent to the Civic Complex, of which, approximately 6.7 acres has been reserved for the Chain of Lakes YMCA. PROJECT LOCATION The 48.84 acre property is located in the southeast quadrant of the Interstate 35/Lake Drive Intersection. It is bounded on the west by Lake Drive, on the north by I -35W, on the east by Rice Creek Regional Park, and on the south by the Civic Complex and the Marshan Lane residential area. The Civic Complex, an additional 10.01 acres, is included in the plat. J:\mgrochala\Projects \Village \Correspondence\Park Board 02- 01- 04.dot • • PROJECT SUMMARY The Hartford Group, Inc., based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota is requesting approvals to allow for the development of the property consistent with the Calthorpe Master Plan and Town Center Design Standards, including Phase 1 development of a 122 unit senior apartment building with approximately 48,800 square feet of ground floor commercial area. In total, the Legacy at Woods Edge project is proposed to allow up to 348,000 square feet of office, retail, and service uses. In addition, approximately 450 multi- family residential units are proposed for the development. The residential units provide a variety of housing options and include townhomes, work -force or income - qualifying rental housing, senior housing and for -sale condominiums. The Hartford Group as obtained purchase agreements with both the City owned land as well as the northern 29 acres of the site, which is privately owned. Design & Development Standards The Design and Development Standards are proposed as the regulating zoning standards for the Legacy at Woods Edge development. The standards establish the use, site layout, site amenity and architectural control guidelines for the Planned Unit Development. The Development Standards were prepared by Calthorpe Associates as part of the "Village" Master Plan process completed in 2000. Included within the Design Guidelines are provisions for the establishment of parks and open space. Open Space Three types of Open Spaces are proposed within the Woods Edge development. These spaces provide recreation and relaxation space and functions as natural edges to the development. In addition to on -site open space, the site provides unparalleled opportunities for recreation due to its proximity to the Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Regional Park, located immediately to the east and south. The project will provide pedestrian/bicycle trail links into the regional park system. Accessible Commons The residential district must provide a minimum acreage of Accessible Commons equal to 10 percent of the District land area. Located within the center of the townhome area the commons is a neighborhood- oriented open space intended to provide limited recreation and gathering areas. City Parks & Plazas An approximately one acre community green is provided for in the heart of the development. This space provides for a public gathering area adjacent to the retail, office, and higher intensity uses within the Mixed Use District. J:\mgrochala\Projects \Village \Correspondence\Park Board 02- 01- 04.dot • • • Natural Resource Area Natural Resource Areas protect valuable natural features while allowing pedestrian access along trails. The majority of the Open Space within the Woods Edge project falls within this category. As part of the site development, approximately 9 acres of the site, comprising approximately 6.5 acres of wetland, will be preserved in its natural state. The wetland area, located along the northeastern boundary of the site is part of an 87 acre wetland complex that separates the site from George Watch Lake. Additionally, changes in site design have allowed for the opportunity to preserve approximately 1.6 acres of woodlands in the southeastern portion of the project in conjunction with the future YMCA development. Park Development The City has retained the services of Short, Elliott, Hendrickson, Inc., to prepare the infrastructure plans for the development including the "Community Green ". A conceptual layout of the community green has been prepared which includes a large central green space, seasonal gardens, as well as a performance canopy. The green is intended to serve as a location for community events such as a farmers market, or art fair. The "accessible commons" area, within the residential district, will be developed in conjunction with the specific plan review for that area. Staff is currently working with the developer and the YMCA to allow for joint use of the area. A pedestrian/bicycle trail is proposed to be extended along Town Center Parkway and through the proposed YMCA property, to connect with the Regional Park. Anoka County Parks is committed to working with City staff to coordinate our trail extension with future trail improvements within the regional park. Park dedication will be a combination of both land and cash. The dollar amount has not been finalized at this time. However, it is anticipated that cash payments will be used to development the parks and trail system within the project area. Attachments: 1. Site Development Plan 2.

Floor Hockey, Soccer and Toss, Kick and Catch are scheduled to begin the first week in February. Registration for all winter programs is strong. SPECIAL EVENTS Snow Day: 160 people attended this year's event which was held on Saturday, January 24 at Wargo Nature Center. This attendance number is much higher than last year, but still not as high as it was the first couple years of the event. The extreme lack of snow over the past few years and the bitter cold weather have certainly affected our attendance. We'll continue offering the event and hope that the weather will eventually cooperate. Sweetheart Dance: Over 120 people are currently signed up for this preschool parent /child event that will be held on Valentine's Day (Saturday, February 14) at Centennial Elementary School. Activities include dancing to music, a special Valentine craft, refreshments and sweetheart photos. • ADULT Community Outings: Our first trip of the year is "I Do! I Do!" on Valentines Day. Participants will watch the Minnesota Centennial Showboat's production of "I Do! I Do!" and have lunch at Forepaugh's Restaurant. Approximately thirty participants are signed up for this trip. Basketball: Nine teams are participating in the Adult 5- Player Basketball program which is now in mid - season. Fitness: Cardio Kick Boxing and Yoga saw significant increases in enrollment this season. The department also added a new program called Ball and Band Fitness. OUTDOOR SKATING RINKS Warming Houses: The warming house shelters are operating effectively this winter. We have received very few complaints over the closure of warming houses. The two remaining shelters that are open for this season have had steady attendance numbers. At City Hall Park we issued a code to Centennial Youth Hockey and so far have had no issues with their use of the building without a shelter attendant.

Maintenance activity during January has included: • Daily rink maintenance — this usually includes sweeping, blowing, shoveling, and flooding of all our rinks. • Building maintenance — including garbage, cleaning restrooms, and sweeping floors as needed. • Assisting the Streets Department with plowing of parking lots, sidewalks, streets, cul -de- sacs, and trails after snow events. • Equipment maintenance. • Attended Green Expo at Minneapolis Convention Center. • Constructed 20 bluebird houses to be placed in City parks and trails. • Conducted annual employee performance reviews. • Repaired core aerifier — new shaft, bushings, spacers, and seals. Those are the January highlights. Sorry about the briefness, but the recent snow has got me on the run. See you in February. sw /parkbrd /mike /January 04 Update.doc Lino Lakes Parks and Recreation Department 600 Town Center Parkway Lino Lakes, MN 55014 (651) 982 -2440 Fax (651) 982 -2439 www.ci.lino - lakes.mn.us 9 /I.

At the Park Board's request, I have provided additional information regarding the potential sale of LaMotte Park and the possible trails serving the Stoneybrook Development. I have attached a memo relating to these two items. I have also provided a Park Dedication Fund Summary, which reflects the tentative approvals the Park Board made last month. Specifically the projects include: ❖ Extending Glenview Lane trail to Sunrise Park parking lot ❖ Pave Birch Park trail — boardwalk to parking lot ❖ Designate Raven's Hollow Park Dedication Funds to future Birchwood Acres Park development ❖ Construct trails at Birch Street/Hodgson Road intersection The updated Park Dedication Fund Summary also includes the Comprehensive Park System Plan Update and costs associated with the Holly Drive Improvement Project. Assuming the 2004 Park Board Goals are approved at the upcoming Park Board Meeting, it is expected that the Park Board will present the goals to the City Council during the March 3 City Council Work Session. Please bring along the packet of information that was included in last month's Park Board packet related to the 2004 Goal Setting Meeting information. sw /parkbrd/meeting info/Discuss and Approve 2004 Park Board Goals.doc • Lino Lakes Parks and Recreation Department 600 Town Center Parkway Lino Lakes, MN 55014 (651) 982 -2440 Fax (651) 982 -2439 www.ci.lino-lakes.mn.us January 26, 2004 TO: Park Board Members FROM: Rick DeGardner, Public Services Director SUBJECT: Additional 2004 Goal Setting Meeting Information Sale of LaMotte Park After researching the history of LaMotte Park, it was discovered that the City considered selling the parkland in 1983. Mr. Bill Hawkins, City Attorney, was requested to provide his legal opinion on the saleability of the parkland. In his opinion it would be almost impossible to sell the land since this is dedicated parkland on a plat. This gives the City an easement to use this land for park purposes but the fee title remains with the owner of the land. If it is vacated, the title reverts to the owner or his heirs. Mr. Hawkins also felt that the sale of this land would need to be approved by all land owners in LaMotte Third Addition. After further discussion with the Park Board and City Council, it was agreed upon with area residents to designate the park area as open space. Potential Stoneybrook Trails Attached is some preliminary information related to possible trails serving the Stoneybrook Development. The narrative and map are related to the trail segments along Birch Street. I will present information regarding the possible trail leading to Holly Drive on Monday. sw /parkbrd /meeting information /Additional 2004 Goal Setting Meeting Information.doc • • • BIRCH STREET TRAIL 1/29/04 Description: South side of Birch St. - Sherman Lake Rd. to Centerville Rd. North side of Birch St. - Sherman Lake Rd. to Centerville Rd. The proposed alignment of the trail is primarily located along the R/W line of Birch Street to stay in compliance with the county's requirement of maintaining a 22' clear zone from a paved rural roadway. This alignment would require the removal of some trees from the R/W that are also in front of some residential houses. Specifically the first four homes east of Sherman Lake Road on the north side. Curb and gutter is proposed through an area about 500' long because there is a wetland on both sides of the road. By placing curb & gutter we can reduce the clear zone from 22' to 10' thereby reducing the impact on the wetlands. Installing curb and gutter would then also require storm sewer and culverts. While doing this will reduce the impact on the wetland there still may be some encroachment on the back slope of the trail. How much of an impact will not be known until the final design is done. Some wetland mitigation may need to be done. On the south side just before you get to Centerville road the grade of the proposed alignment rises substantially so a cost for a modular block retaining wall was also included to keep our disturbed area to a minimum. This type of wall could also be used in other areas along the trial route as needed. The estimated project cost including engineering, legal, and administrative fees is, $220,000. All design must be reviewed and approved by Anoka County and Rice Creek Watershed. BIRCH Sherman Lake Q- EKE d F S w n� J WOL o cr • CIFC O C\R.
