9.C.3. Discuss Regional Park Criteria (adiourn to Conference Room A)
Michele McPherson began the discussion by stating that two possible locations
have been identified for area-wide parks: 1) an area north of County Road 33
and west of the railroad grade, and 2) an area east of Highway 169 and north of
County Road 33.
Commissioner Reitsma raised questions regarding the definition of an area-wide
park, how large an area-wide park should be, and how many acres total does
the city anticipate will be needed when the city is fully developed.
Factors which were discussed in determining the acreage for park need
projections included:
• how many acres of park land per 1,000 people is appropriate for this
community;
• how many residents will Elk River have when it is totally built out;
• what is the likelihood of residential development in the gravel mining district
when mining is completed;
• the impact in population if a second sewer treatment facility were
constructed;
Using 43 acres of park land per 1,000 people would result in 559 acres for a
population of 13,000. A population of 17,000 would mean 731 acres were
needed. A figure of 50,000 was suggested for the City's total built-out population.
It was felt the figure could be as high as 80,000 if a second sewer treatment plant
were built (to serve future residential development in the gravel district). •
