The park will be important as a community park, athletic complex, and for neighborhood use. The $220,000 projected from the Park Trust fund will be enough for Phase I development of the park. The sum is expected to be derived from the residential development of the property north of I53rd Avenue. Readers of this text will note that 1998 also provides an opportunity for Landfill Trust fund dollars given community priority. Anoka Electric Cooperative Energy Park is projected as a 1997 improvement. The park could be developed using TIF funds and contributions from local businesses. The $25,000 estimate in the "other" category is projected from funds derived from AEC's sale of commercial lots in their subdivision or similar sources. Proposed are picnic areas and paths for workers' breakfime activities around this commercial/industrial area. 'As the County Road #116 corridor becomes a more frequent work site destination and non-vehicular travel route, a rest area in this area is also of value. Concurrent with commercial development and street improvements could be sidewalk and/or boulevard trees along the McKinley street extension. The proposed $15,000 MSA amount could be supplemented with TIF funds if they are available at the time.
