CHAPTER 6 COMMUNITY FACILITIES 132 <br /> PARK AND RECREATIONAL OPEN SPACE <br /> EXISTING CONDITIONS AND NEEDS <br /> Presently, the City has a potential of some 523 acres of recreation land including usable <br /> school property, the proposed Ramsey County park along Rice Creek and north and east of <br /> Long Lake, City parks and the City golf course. <br /> Most City parks have permanent park shelters, skating rinks, ball diamonds, and play <br /> equipment. This reflects the City philosophy that these active recreation facilities should be <br /> easily accessible to all City residents rather than centralized on one large park. <br /> In addition, some facilities primarily oriented toward school age children, are provided <br /> on the elementary school grounds. <br /> The junior and senior high schools also have tennis courts and pool facilities which are <br /> available for public use on a limited schedule. <br />
