Amli MEMORANDUM <br /> iiiiNGINEERS I ARCHITECTS I PLANNERS <br /> 222 EAST LITTLE CANADA ROAD,ST PAUL,MINNESOTA 55117 612 484-0272 <br /> TO: CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW <br /> ATTN: MARY SAARION <br /> FROM: DAN BOXRUD <br /> DATE: DECEMBER 10, 1987 <br /> SUBJECT: SILVER VIEW PARK TRAIL <br /> SEH FILE: 87154 <br /> I field checked the location where you plan to install additional <br /> wood chip trail in Silver View Park on the southwest side of the <br /> pond. My understanding is that you propose to continue the wood <br /> chip trail from the north end of the concrete walk westerly and <br /> northerly to connect to the existing wood chip trail on the <br /> northwest corner of the pond. <br /> • The existing wood chip trail appears to have been constructed on <br /> top of the existing ground. In certain locations, this has the <br /> potential for blocking drainage. However, based on the lot <br /> grades I saw west of the concrete walk, it appears that this <br /> method of construction could be continued without blocking <br /> drainage. The location of the trail would need to be carefully <br /> picked so as to have enough cross slope toward the pond so that <br /> the additional height created by the wood chips would not be <br /> higher than the ground south of the trail . If the desired trail <br /> routing does end up in a flatter area adjacent to the back lot <br /> lines, it may be desirable to dig the trail down into the topsoil <br /> so that the existing grade can be continued toward the pond. <br /> I believe this addresses the question you raised to me on this <br /> proposed project. If you require anything further, please <br /> advise. <br /> DRB:jms <br /> • <br /> SHORT ELLIOTT ST PAUL, CHIPPEWA FALLS, <br /> HENDRICKSON INC. MINNESOTA WISCONSIN <br />
