DATE: October 13, 1999
SUBJECT: Trott Brook Park Update
Overview/Information
D. R. Horton has been keeping staff informed of the improvements to the Trott
Brook Farms Development including the development of the park. On October 7,
1999, Phil Hals and I toured the park site with Project Manager in order to witness
the progress. The park site has been rough graded will be dormant seeded this fall.
No borrow from the site has taken place. . The woods within the park contain some
dead trees that will be removed after consulting with the Sherburne County
Forester. The roads to the park will likely be paved the first week of November
As this project continues to move forward, the City will need to determine the type
• and style of amenities to go into the park. The ideas generated by the Park Shelter
Working Group might be of some assistance. For review, the concept of the park
includes the following:
• Picnic shelter
• Picnic tables
• Baseball field
• Soccer field
• Bituminous trail
• Basketball court
• Play structure
