Another City owned drai~e hrea (Reilley West Park) and an outlet along the Rum River (Stanhope River Hills Park) will ibeco~e an undeveloped park when the River Bluffs subdivision is developed.

He stated there is a drainage swale that exists off 156th Lane N.W. and the City has cl~ed It out a few times. He stated if it were cleared out again to a ten foot width and paved, the ~tgh§orhood would have access to this park. This access would be low cost and Iow maintenanc/~,.. H~ also proposed improving the playground area by reformatting the equipment, placing a timber border and filling with pea rock. He stated that the City has been reimbursed by Anoka County for 1992 redistricting expenses in the amount of $3,102.00. This revenue was not anticipated ~i~th&City's 1992 General Fund Budget. In addition to this money, the City filed for reimbursern~at i~ the amount of $2,370.00 of certain expenses associated with the Presidential Primary of j~pril'7, 1992. These reimbursements, totalling $5,472.00, could be dedicated to the developmeni of Woodland Green Park. The cost of materials is estimated to be $6,950.00 which exceeds thq idet~tified revenue by $1,478.00; however, Public Work's inventory contains sufficient q '~Uaotitles of timbers and pea rock to complete this project.
