The Glacial Hills <br />Regional Trail will be an east-west trail that will run through northern Washington County. Once fully developed, it will <br />connect pedestrians, bicyclists and trail users to regional destinations, including Hardwood Creek and Central Greenway <br />Regional Trails, Big Marine Park Reserve and William O’Brien State Park. Guided by interagency collaboration and its <br />public engagement process, this long range plan provides the vision and direction for the future development of this <br />trail. <br /> <br />The City of Hugo has been involved in the planning process and supports the improvements proposed in Glacial Hills <br />Regional Trail long range plan. This plan provides long-term planning and implementation guidance for route <br />alignment, trail uses and facilities, and corridor natural resource management. Area trail users will benefit from <br />additional transportation and recreational opportunities, and equally, the project area will benefit from the careful <br />stewardship of water resources. <br /> <br />Thank you for the opportunity to send our support. We look forward to working with all agency partners on the <br />implementation of the Glacial Hills Regional Trail long range plan. <br /> <br />Please contact me at 651-762-6300 if you have any questions. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Bryan Bear <br />Administrator, City of Hugo <br /> <br />CC: Hugo City Council <br />Hugo Parks Commission <br />
