In addition, as part of the City of Elk River License renewal process, the Landfill must develop an end. use plan for re-licensure in 2{}04. The End Use Plan was developed as a community effort and the stakeholders are comprised of the following: • City of Elk River Planning Staff • City of Elk River Parks and Recreation Commission • Elk River Landfill In addition, Livonia Township representatives participated in the process. B. Approach and .Methodology The planning and design process of the plan was established as apro-active approach by having all the above stakeholders involved from the beginning to the final master plan. The methodology used to develop a final plan centered on completing several activities. ~" The first activity is to understand landfill, its operation, technical parameters, landfill end use precedents and other related base information. The second activity requires stakeholders to be familiar with the site opportunities and constraints through site ~;~ observation and walk through. After that a third activity, a design working session, was scheduled to brainstorm concept ideas as well as formulating a vision for this plan. Several plans were generated and presented to the stakeholders following this activity. The final activity was developing a final plan after comments and input from the stakeholders. C, Vision During the work session with stakeholders, the vision for this closed landfill will be a passive recreational use ~r~ith sojne commercial apportutaity~ at the i~at~ersection of Higlti~°cx~~ 1 b~ arad 2215' Avef~ue. In addition, when full closure of the landfill is achieved it is anticipated that some of the existing structures could be reused as recreational or educational facility. To achieve this vision, the City will have to work with Waste Management Inc. to develop final elevations, potential trail locations and final grades as well as revegetation scheme. Since closed landfills final elevations would fluctuate over time due gravitational and natural. causes and would stabilize after twenty five years, it is to the benefit of this plan to be flexible and to maintain a long term working relationship with Waste Management, Inc. Elk Rie~er Landfill End I_~se ;1laster Plan ~~`aste Management, Inc. U RS September 21102 ?A- 2. Inventory and Analysis A. Initial Impression The site is on the northern edge of the City's boundary and Highway 169 runs northlsouth along its eastern edge. Current use is an active landfill and the entrance is at 225` Avenue. To the south is Commercial Asphalt and Co. Plant, a working facility, and accessible via 221` Avenue. Adjacent to the north boundary of the property is Livonia Township. According to the permit, the total existing landfill area is 140 acres of which approximately 92 acres are permitted footprint for landfill .operations. The future landfill redevelopment has approximately 108.5 acres of which 87 acres are proposed for landfill operation. The 87.5 acres will be tied with the 92 acres. A horse and hiking trail runs at its western edge and steep slopes at its four sides make it challenging to develop direct .access to the site..Final cover grades are set at around elevation 1115 feet and tl~e landfill base is at ar©und elevation 975 feet. Views from the top elevation to all sides are very commanding. To the ~~est, the Rice Lake wetland complex offers nature views and on a clear day, downtown Minneapolis skyline can be easily seen to the southeast, l~~ture groves of mix deciduous and evergreen native trees form the eastern edge, screening Highway 169. Mature vegetation also forms the western edge, adjacent to the hiking trail. ~ B. Major Land UselZoning According to the City of Elk River Comprehensive Plan, adopted in 1995, the existing -, land use for the area is landfill and is zoned agricultural conservation with mineral excavation and solid waste facility. The Comprehensive Plan also identified the site characteristics as patches of wooded areas with slopes in excess of 7%. The existing unpaved hiking and horse trail will be paved in the future. The comprehensive plan identified the above site characteristics both as opportunities and constraints for development. The wooded area, though moderately restrictive to development, when incorporated into the design of the project could be a natural asset. The slopes could be less attractive to industrial and c©mmercial development but could be .suitable for ,~ residential development. In severe slopes the best use might be natural open spaces. In the Comprehensive Plan the staff recommendation for residential use far this area is a Eninirnum lot size of 10 acres. C. Forces and Issues Highway 169 and the hiking trail are two circulation routes that would become forces to the site. Both could make the site easily accessible and visible. Although automobile access is easily achievable from .Highway 169, future access needs to be irnpr©ved to ensure user safety to the site. The hiking trail has the potential to link the site to the City's trail system. Mature mix of evergreen .and deciduous trees that buffer the site from .Highway I69 help enhance the rural character and provide visual interest. The steep slopes would limit types of development such as residential, commercial and industrial. The landfill, though has commanding panoramic views, would significantly limit the types of development due to long-term settling of the land and other environmental limitations. The locations of wells in the site would also pose a design challenge.

Features for this concept would include natural areas, a nature center, hiking trail and lookout pavilion. This concept would utilize the existing landfill access and parking. Anew visitor/nature center or a renovated building ti~~ould be located adjacent to the parking. A secondary access and parking would be located at the Commercial Asphalt and Co. Plant. A looping hiking trail, constructed on gravel base, would be developed that could also become cross-country skiing trail. Lookout pavilion would be installed along the looping trail to take advantage of the various vantage locations. The areas at the top would be "sectioned out" to create "outdoor rooms" far different plant communities. A trail would connect these areas to the overall trail system as well as to the existing trail. The top elevation t~jould also be gradually sloped to maximize the views. Native plants with spreading roots system should be used and in areas where needed, these plants should be planted in earthen berms to prevent root penetration to the subsurface membrane. 2.

Features of this concept would include ballfields, sledding hill, batting cages, mountain ` bike trails, hiking traillcross-country skiing trail, archery range and amphitheater. In addition, other features such as golf course, driving range and skate park could also be constructed. This concept would utilize the existing entrance road as its primary access to the site. T«'o gravel parking would be located at the top of the landfill and another at the northern part of the site. A secondary batting cages and sledding hill would be located at the north end and an outdoor amphitheater would be located at the southern part of the site. The ballfields ~~~otild be a combination of soccer and softball fields and an archery range could be developed at the «~estern part of the site. These features would be connected with a looping trail and several lookout pavilion located at key points that would provide best views from the site. Wildflowers and native gasses «~ould be planted on the slopes and all natural areas. Buffer planting would be planted around the perimeter. ~. Proposed Development 3: CommerciaUCity Park Gaol: 71ie ~~oal of tlrrs concept rs to prol~ir~e »ti.~-t.~se that ~or~tld ge~ter-ate iiico~rie. .Features of this concept would include commercial, office, warehouse, amphitheater, research office, informal play areas, hiking trailsfcross-country skiing trails, lookout pavilion and horseback riding. This concept ~~~ould utilize the existing access road to the Research Center as «lell as to the southern perimeter of the park. Tu~o secondary access points would be developed at 221x` Avenue. It is envisioned that this road would have a "parkway" character with two- lane road and on-street parking. The commercial site would be located at the existing ! Commercial Asphalt Co. and Plant to take advantage of the visibility from the highway. The main overlook would be located at the north end of the park and three trails would spur from this site creating a formal character to the trails. At trail intersections, earthen berm would be established to create outdoor seating and outdoor rooms. Other earthen berms would also be constructed to create elevation change as well as to provide planting soil for the trees. A looping trail would be planned along the slopes and connected to the existing trail.

This plan ~~zould utilize the existing access road to the Research Center and two access roads from 22I S1 Avenue. Internal roadway circulation would have a "parkway" character 1~~ith two lanes and on-street parking. The Research Center could also include a visitor center for year round use. Archery range would be designed around the existing trees just north of the Research Center. It is hoped that the future commercial building, to be located at the Commercial Asphalt Co. and Plant site, would support arecreational-type business that «Tould utilize the outdoor areas as its product testing ground. The active product testing ground would have biking trail, rollerblading, skateboarding and putting areas and the passive product testing ground would have hiking, archery, camping gear, rock climbing and cross-country skiing areas. These areas would be used for users to test the products before purchasing. Plazas and other amenities could be developed to attract patrons. Along the parkway, a bitununous trail would be developed to connect the Research Center, the commercial area and the picnic grounds. A gravel looping trail would be constructed at the finish elevation with lookout pavilions to capture views from the site. Retention ponds could be designed and integrated with the ,, surrounding environment and could also function as site amenity. Native plants and «=ildflowers would be planted at all exposed areas. 5.

Impementatian Pragram This chapter Presents an outline of the implementation program far starting the process of de~Feloping the Elk River Landf 11 Park. This chapter has three sections. Project Phasing: Identifies the various projects and tasks to be implemented. Project Cost: Identifies unit costs for each item and provides approximate preliminary construction cost estimate,. Project Funding: Lists potential funding sources for implementing the specific project. ~. Project Phasing There are six phases to this project and the starting of each phase is based on the landfill activities. In addition, fluctuation of the final grades and length of the landfill operation will determine the viability of each pr©ject. Some projects may overlap or implemented concurrently while in some instances, as need and funding arise, projects may need to be advanced or delayed. 1. Phase 1. • Review and reconstruct, if necessary, the entrance road to comply ~.tith roadway safety regulations, due to increase traffic to the park • Mill and overlay access road and parking Tots to the Research Center. • Reconstruct parking lots • Renovate Research Center for year round use and for visitor center use. • Develop archery ranch at north end of Research Center in the wooded area. • Develop detention pond as a natural amenity to the park. + Install plantings per recommendation. Z. Phase 2 • Develop hill slope nearest to the Research Center as sledding hill • Install a portable towrope for winter sledding use. • Install plantings per recommendation • Construct gravel trail • Construct overlooks • Develop detention pond as a natural amenity to the park 3. Phase 3 • Extend trail and overlooks • Install plantings per recommendation • Connect trail to the existing trail along the west edge of the property. • Develop detention pond as a natural amenity. f 4.
