14669 Fitzgerald Avenue North, Hugo, MN55038 • (651) 762-6300 • www.ci.hugo.mn.us June 13, 2018 Dear Resident, The City of Hugo Parks, Recreation and Open Space Commission would like to invite you to help plan the future of Clearwater Creek Preserve located at 4826 Fable Hill Circle. The park has over 100 acres of woods and wetlands. It is designated as a passive park which allows dogs to be off -leash and for use of archery equipment. Passive recreation areas in Hugo are guided to have little to no programming beyond picnic shelters, open space, or open fields. Some passive recreation areas provide no more than a trail. They are planned to have minimal maintenance compared to active parks in the City. The Parks Commission would like you to share your input, ideas, and preferences for the park at an open house on Tuesday, June 26 from 7:OOpm to 9:OOpm at Hugo City Hall. Hugo City Hall is located at 14669 Fitzgerald Avenue. A master plan will be drafted to guide future improvements of Clearwater Creek Preserve. Future improvements may include expanding the trails, building parking and picnic amenities, and improving access. A draft master plan is anticipated to be available for review in the early fall. Planning of the park has been supported by funding from the Statewide Health Improvement Partnership (SHIP), Minnesota Department of Health and Living Healthy in Washington County. You may also share your input through an online survey on the City's website at www.ci.hu o.mn.us arks rec. Please feel free to contact me at 651-762-6342. We look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Shayla Denaway Parks Planner C: Honorable Mayor and City Council Parks, Recreation and Open Space Commission Bryan Bear, City Administrator Scott Anderson, Public Works Director shC i r JI Liv1ny----Ffea1th statewide health P IN iNASHINGTON COUNTY improvement partnership
