City <br />E <br />Fiver <br />January 27, 2022 <br />Dear Resident: <br />I am writing regarding Sherburne County's proposed reconstruction and realignment of CSAH 33 and <br />the possible addition of a city trail along the new corridor. (See reverse for map) <br />Road construction and reconstruction are the most efficient and effective times to add infrastructure as <br />the size and scope of the project, the project planning, engineering, right-of-way acquisition, and <br />equipment mobilization is all done at the same time. The Elk River Trails Master Plan includes a future <br />trail connection along this corridor. The Elk River Parks and Recreation Commission recently reviewed <br />the corridor plan and master plan and recommended the City Council add a trail to the project. The <br />city trail master plan can be reviewed at Elkrivermn.gov/TrailsMasterPlan. <br />The county plans to begin road construction in 2023. <br />Due to the short turnaround to meet the county's project timeline, the City Council needs to decide <br />whether to add the trail to the project. The Elk River City Council cordially invites you to share your <br />thoughts and concerns regarding a trail addition at their next meeting on Monday, February 7 at 6:30 <br />p.m. at City Hall. If you are unable to attend the meeting, you are encouraged to provide public <br />comment by sending an email to me at mheckerkElkRiverMN.gov. Your comments will be shared at <br />the meeting. <br />If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. <br />Sincerely, <br />Michael Hecker <br />Parks and Recreation Director <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br />763.635.1000 <br />P 0 W E R 1 0 0 Y <br />NATUREI <br />E1kRiverMN.gov <br />
