130th Street/ Hardwood Creek Trail
In November 2018, the City of Hugo applied for a partnership project with Living Healthy Washington County
through the Statewide Health Improvement Program. We were recently informed that our project has been
funded. With the funds, a preliminary design and feasibility study will be drafted for a segment of trail on
1301h Street and the alternate alignment of the Hardwood Creek Trail. Staff will present the project plan for
your discussion and approval.
A LOCATION MAP AND THE GRANT ACTION PLAN ARE ATTACHED.
Sunset Lake Future Park Planning
At the meeting of October 18, 2018, the Parks Commission approved a park dedication proposal for The
Preserve on Sunset Lake. The proposal included dedication of .93 acres of land on Sunset Lake adjacent to
the .7 acre city -owned parcel. The Parks Plan states that "providing access to and protect Hugo's water
resources including wetlands, lakes, and streams is encouraged to build a connected, multi -function parks
system". At the time of the development approvals, there was neighborhood interest in those parcels being
developed into a park. Both the Parks Commission and the City Council included planning the future park in
their 2019 goals. Staff will present a timeline and planning proposal from WSB and Associates.
THE PRESERVE ON SUNSET LAKE PLAN IS ATTACHED.

1. Approval of Minutes from the December 19, 2018 Meeting
Tennyson made a motion, Rauschendorfer seconded to approve the minutes of the December 19, 2018 Parks
Commission meeting.
All Ayes.
Motion carried.
2. Adelaide Landing Future Park
Shayla Denaway, Parks Planner reviewed the approvals and recent construction progress in Adelaide Landing.
The park dedication approval included 7.8 acres of land $1,128 per unit in fees. The developer is in the
process of constructing 1.5 miles of trails which includes boardwalks.
Ben Schmidt, Excelsior Group informed that Adelaide Landing 15Yand 2nd Additions are nearly complete and
that the 3rd Addition is ready to start. Excelsior Group is proposing a partnership with the City to complete
the park. The City of Hugo will finish planning the park. Excelsior Group will construct paved areas within the
park as a part of their pavement projects in exchange for a reduction in their park dedication fees. They are
also responsible for the buffer landscaping in the park. The City of Hugo will finish the park plan and
construct the park features.
The Parks Commission discussed the partnership with Excelsior Group and the sketch of the park site shown
in concept designs. Having a sufficient amount of parking was a priority. They compared it to other Hugo
parks and found 30-40 spots would be good. They looked at the configuration and wanted to look at having a
drop off area adjacent to the southern ball field. They also discussed utilizing the power line easement areas
as much as allowable. They talked about having strong trail connections between the north and south areas
of the park. A large multi -purpose playground with equipment for all ages is desirable. The Commission
agreed with Schmidt that a pickleball court would probably be desirable for residents. The court could be
multi -purpose and also have a basketball hoop. A large picnic shelter is also desirable given the size of the
neighborhood and total reach of the development.
Parks Commission directed City Staff to move forward with the partnership and to continue working with
Westwood to draft the park site plan.

Project Description: The City of Hugo is looking to put together a feasibility study to complete missing trail connections between Highway 61 and Fenway
Boulevard along and near 130th Street. There is an existing north -south trail on Fenway Boulevard and there will be a trail constructed in 2019 on 130th
Street east of Highway 61. This is part of the alternate alignment identified with the Hardwood Creek Regional Trail Master Plan. The feasibility study will
also include a segment of the HCRT.
