Plans include a single cul-de-sac with all parcels accessing the new road and no additional access <br />to Highway 10. The two existing parcels west of the project site will also utilize the new road for access. These two <br />parcels likely will need address changes. <br />The Elk River Vision <br />A welcoming community with revolutionary and spirited resourcefulness, exceptional <br /> <br />service, and community engagement that encourages and inspires prosperity. <br />Updated: January 2023 <br /> <br />
