SUBJECT: 7. Recommend 2022-2026 Park Capital Improvement Plan
DATE: June 3, 2021
INTRODUCTION
The Park and Recreation Commission is requested to recommend the 2022-2026 Park Capital
Improvement Plan (CIP) to the City Council.
DISCUSSION
The target date for draft CIP is June 4, 2021. Attached are 3 spreadsheets for review.
Spreadsheet C is based on discussion by the Park and Recreation Commission had on May 27,
2021 work session of paying off the Andover Community Center debt of $500,000 which is half
of the $1,000,000 that was previously committed by the Commission. The other half of the
$1,000,000 is being recommended by the Commission is to remain in the Park Dedication Fund
for future park projects.
The Projected Fund Balance in Spreadsheet C has also been increased for the annual
miscellaneous fund to $50,000 for each of the next 5 years based on discussion from the May 27,
2021 work session. This will allow the Commission to have more flexibility to complete some of
the smaller park items that may come up during the year either from resident requests, from Park
and Recreation Commissioners and/or from staff. For example, some recent projects that were
not previously identified in the CIP or in the Comprehensive Plan that will be done with the
miscellaneous funds is parking lot lighting at the Anoka County Dog Park facility and
construction of the Bike Youth Trail at Sunshine Park.
BUDGETIMPACT
Depending on what the Commission would like to recommend for projects, the Finance
Department has indicated to staff that the ending fund balance for each of the 5 years should
have a minimum positive balance of $50,000.00 or more.
ACTION REQUIRED
The Park and Recreation Commission is requested to recommend the 2022-2026 Parks Capital
Improvement Plan to the City Council (either Spreadsheet A, B, or Q.

SUBJECT: 8. Recommend 2022-2026 Trail Capital Improvement Plan
DATE: June 3, 2021
INTRODUCTION
The Park and Recreation Commission is requested to recommend the 2022-2026 Trail Capital
Improvement Plan (CIP) to the City Council.
DISCUSSION
The target date for draft CIP is Friday, June 4th. Below are the following segments that were discussed
over the last couple months. Segments I and 3 were identified by the City Council in the 2021-2025 CIP.
Note: It appears at this point that there may not be enough funds to construct a Segment in 2022 so most
likely the projects will be moved back 1 year.
• Segment 1 — 8' Bit. Trail along Crosstown Blvd from Xeon Street NW to Railroad Tracks (2022)
8' Bit. Trail along Crosstown Blvd from Railroad Tracks to 1571 Avenue (2022)
8' Bit. Trail along Crosstown Blvd from 15r Avenue to 159' Avenue (2022)
• Segment 2 — 8' Bit. Trail along Station Parkway from Thrush Street to Partridge Circle (west leg)
8' Bit. Trail along Station Parkway from Partridge Street (east leg) to Hanson Blvd
• Segment 3 — 8' Bit. Trail along Verdin Street NW from 161' Avenue to 163rd Lane (2024)
• Segment 4 — 8' Bit. Trail along Coon Creek from Prairie Road going east to the existing trail in
the Shadowbrook development. This project would most likely be eligible for MN
DNR funding. Note: There is one property (Mohlencamp's) that has yet to be
developed. So, until the property is developed, the City will not be able to construct
the trail along this segment until the necessary trail easements are dedicated.
• Segment 5 — 8' Bit. Trail from the west side of the railroad tracks to the east side of the tracks to
the new development called Fields of Winslow Cove which will require an
underpass under the tracks. At this point it does not appear to be likely that the
project will move forward.
A copy of the trail map identifying the segments is included in the side pocket of the packet.
The funding for the trails/sidewalk improvements have been using a combination of DNR Grants, general
funds and trail funds that have been received from new developments.
BUDGETIMPACT
The City Council will determine how the proposed trail improvements will be funded.
ACTION REQUIRED
The Park and Recreation Commission is requested to recommend the 2022-2026 Trail Capital
Improvement Plan to the City Council.
Respectfully submitted,
Todd J. Haas

by Connexus Energy but will not activated until later once the parking lot is close to be
completed.

been done at the park. Installation of playground equipment is nearly completed by Parks
Maintenance staff and is still on schedule to be completed within the next few weeks.
• Hawkridge Park Shelter Replacement — Staff has not received word as when the shelter will be
delivered but the contractor has indicated to staff they will be installing the footings so that once
the shelter has been delivered, the contractor can start on the installation right away.
• Wild Iris Park Playground Equipment Replacement — The playground equipment has been
ordered. The neighborhood selected a structure for the 5-12 year old age group. Also, the swing
set will be replaced along with replacing a couple spring rides with 1 new spring ride and a new 2

Timing for the community build will be determined later once staff has received notice of when
the equipment is anticipated to be delivered.

and direction of travel are close to be completed by Parks Maintenance staff. The trail entrance is
located on the east side of the wooded area by the existing paved trail and south parking lot area
in Sunshine Park.
• Joint Meeting with City Council — The Park and Recreation Commission at the May 6, 2021
workshop meeting indicated it would like to have a joint meeting with the City Council. The date
of that meeting has not been determined yet.
ON -HOLD PROJECTS — None at the time.
OTHER ITEMS OFINTEREST—
• Update of Pedestrian Trails:
Trails that are planned to be reconstructed:
❖ 2024 or Beyond -- Kelsey Round Lake Park Trail (Note: The reconstruction of the
trail will most likely be pushed out for reconstruction for another 3-5 years). Note:
This trail reconstruction is eligible for a MNDNR grant. The City would need to
apply for the grant a year in advance of the proposed construction. This would also
apply to the existing boardwalk at the north end of the park that is poor condition.

The Commission has determined that it would like to have a regular meeting at Wild Iris Park.
Tentative date is scheduled for June 171.
If you have any questions or comments regarding any of the items mentioned above or any items
relating to parks or projects, feel free to contact Todd Haas or Dave Berkowitz at the City. Staff
recommends the Commission continue reviewing the City Council meeting minutes that you
receive by e-mail as to discussions of various projects the City Council has been working on or is
considering.
