The sections, and their content, are as follows: ... Boundaries and Acquisition Costs... describes the natural and recreational resources in the park. It reviews acquisition and concludes that adequate land has been acquired for a functional regional park. Therefore, the plan deletes proposed acquisition on the east side of Rum River. II ... Stewardship Plan... itemizes the services provided to park properties by Anoka Co. Parks Department and shows the sources of funds. It also discusses potential revenues, if Phase I were developed in 1994. III ... Demand Forecast... analyzes existing demand information supplemented by recent input from County and city staff and commissioners. The plan concludes that the proposed facilities/services in the 1982 needs statement are proper but that the capacities are minimal. Some reasons are cited for that conclusion. The plan also reports an inventory of other parks in the 15 mile circle (service area) of Rum River Central RP. IV ...
