Item 5. <br /> III <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> TO: Economic Development Authority <br /> FRO Cathy Mehelich, Director of <br /> Economic Development <br /> DATE: November 13, 2000 <br /> SUBJECT: Snowmobile Trail Request <br /> Issue <br /> Staff has received a request by the River City Snow Riders Club to <br /> acquire a permit to build a snowmobile trail along the east side of the <br /> railroad and within the wetland area of the EDA (Brown) property in the <br /> East Business Park. Representatives of the River City Snow Riders Club <br /> may be in attendance to answer questions. <br /> III Attachments <br /> • Maps of EDA Property indicating Proposed Trail <br /> • Letter from Greg Strommen, dated November 1, 2000 <br /> • Sherburne County Snowmobile Trail Permit <br /> • MN United Snowmobilers Association Landowner Protection Law <br /> Background <br /> Proposed Trail Location <br /> Attached is the letter of request for the snowmobile permit received from <br /> Greg Strommen, representing the Snow Riders Club. Also attached is a <br /> map indicating the EDA property and location of the proposed trail as it <br /> relates to the designated wetland area. The trail is proposed to run <br /> between the west property line and within the designated wetland area. <br /> Additionally, the Club has proposed that a trail run along the north and <br /> south property line. Staff understands that discussions are underway <br /> with MNDOT for building a trail along the Highway 10 and 169 corridor <br /> rights-of-way. Staff believes that if a trail is built along the highway <br /> rights-of-way, an additional trail along the EDA north property line will <br /> be unnecessary. <br /> III <br />
