56 Friends of the Mississippi River Camp Cozy Park NRMP <br />Alternatively, this area could be maintained as a mowed space for future park programming. <br />The unit’s proximity to the river (440 feet), access to the roadway (380 feet), level terrain and <br />openness lend itself to a picnic area or park shelter. If park master planning in 2025 identifies <br />development of this space as a priority, this area should not be included in restoration of the <br />nearby dry prairie in Unit 2. <br /> <br />Recommended Plant Community: None; UPs13b Dry Sand - Gravel Prairie (Southern). <br />RESTORATION <br /> <br />This section describes the proposed restoration process for Camp Cozy Park and includes <br />information on target plant communities and habitat goals to be achieved through restoration <br />(Figure 18). A description of the restoration process and the goals for the restoration, both <br />broad and specific, are also provided. <br /> <br />Elk River Parks and Recreation staff note the desire to invest state grant restoration funding <br />only in areas of the park not intended for future programming or building site improvements <br />(picnic shelter, canoe launch, paved trails). Potential improvements will be specified in an Elk <br />River Parks master plan in 2025, and areas best suited for site programming are noted in the <br />management unit descriptions below. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
