ITEM 10. <br /> City of TO: PARK AND RECREATION COMMISSION <br /> ilk River <br /> FROM: PATRICK KLAERS, CITY ADMINISTRATOR <br /> DATE: OCTOBER 28, 1992 <br /> SUBJECT: COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE <br /> Most Commission members are aware that a proposal for <br /> commercial development between Highway 169 and Jackson Avenue <br /> has been reviewed by the Planning Commission. The Planning <br /> Commission tabled consideration of the proposal until the <br /> development plans were more formalized and more in compliance <br /> with Planning Commission and staff recommendations . <br /> Additionally, the development is a long ways away, as an <br /> Environmental Assessment Worksheet and an Indirect Source <br /> Permit needs to be completed. However, since a proposal has <br /> been submitted, the Planning Commission is requesting Park and <br /> Recreation Commission input on a trail and pathway proposal for <br /> this area. The City anticipates receiving park dedication <br /> monies associated with this development but also desires to <br /> make sure that development in this area helps interconnect our <br /> ultimate City parkway system. <br /> The attached memo from Steve Rohif outlines the area of <br /> concerns relating to a trail/pathway proposal . You should note <br /> that the proposal for development was the one initially <br /> submitted and will not be the one officially reviewed. Staff <br /> has already seen a significantly revised proposal, but this has <br /> not been officially submitted for review by the Planning <br /> Commission. The Commission should not get the impression that <br /> this development proposal is imminent but part of it could <br /> happen in 1993. The developer is pushing hard to have the <br /> project move forward and in this regard, Park and Recreation <br /> Commission input is requested as it relates to pathways and <br /> trails in this vicinity. <br /> • <br /> 720 Dodge Avenue N.W., Elk River, Minnesota 55330 (612) 441-7420 <br />
