River TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Pat Klaers, City Admi f' ra4 r
DATE: September 24, 1996
SUBJECT: Park Land Acquisition
The city has discussed obtaining park land from Mr. Gagne for a number of
years. This potential park land is north of Highway 10, north of the Elk
River along the Waco Avenue alignment. Mr. Gagne has 48 acres in this
area (see attached maps) and over the years, has offered to sell this land to
the city.
Mr. Gagne has recently advised the city that he is willing to donate this land
to the city for park and public purposes. This land gift will be subject to City
Council approval and acceptance of an appraisal which identifies the value of
this property. Additionally, the city will need to have a Phase I
411 Environmental Audit completed before it accepts this property.
State law requires that the Planning Commission review any city acquisition
or disposal of property. While this land is not going to be purchased by the
city but is a gift, it still seems appropriate for the Planning Commission to
review this property becoming part of the city land inventory.
The Park and Recreation Commission has reviewed this site at a number of
meetings. This property was included as part of the 1991 Park Master Plan.
In the draft updated Park Master Plan, a park in this vicinity is also
identified. In April, 1995, the Commission also evaluated this area as a
potential location for recreation fields. Part of this property is in the
floodplain and is flat and open and is conducive to the development of
recreation fields. If flooding were to take place in this area, there would be
limited damage to the recreation fields. Access into the area was the major
concern that lead the Commission to recommend that this property not be
purchased and developed into recreation fields. Nonetheless, the
Commission supported obtaining this property if economically feasible for
park purposes. Accordingly, the Commission has already indicated its
support for the city obtaining this property.

Memo to Planning Commission Page 2
September 24, 1996
No public hearing is required by the Planning Commission prior to making
• its comments on this potential acquisition. After discussion by the
Commission on this land and its relationship to the city's Comprehensive
Plan, it is recommended that the Planning Commission support this land
donation by Mr. Gagne.
Recommended Action
It is recommended that the Planning Commission support this land gift from
Mr. Gagne, as use of the property for primarily park purposes is consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan.

RE: Real Estate Donation for Park Purposes
The Richard Deziel and W. D. Gagne families wish to donate certain real
IDproperty along the Elk River for public park purposes. A copy of a 1971
survey is attached.
This donation of real property to the City of Elk River for park purposes
is contingent upon an appraisal of the property being at least $150,000 and
the current owners being able to get both a Minnesota State and Federal tax
deduction in the tax year 1996 of no less than $150.000.00.
