Capital Improvement Program 2014 thru 2018 <br />City of Ramsey, Minnesota <br />Project # 04-PARK-014 <br />Project Name Trott Brook Trail Corridor <br />Description <br />Department Park Improvements <br />Contact Unassigned <br />Type Improvement <br />Useful Life 20 Years <br />Category Park Improvement <br />Priority 5 Future Consideration <br />Status Future Consideration <br />Total Project Cost: $4,015,000 <br />The Trott Brook Trail Corridor extends from Elk River's Youth Athletic Complex near Jarvis Street and follows the brook easterly to Rum River <br />Central Park about six miles away. The project would involve continued acquisition of scenic and trail easements, boardwalk and trail <br />construction and natural resource enhancements. <br />Justification <br />This trail project would be predicated on significant planning leading up to construction and likely involve a Master Plan, as well as receiving <br />grant monies for funding. The land around the brook is the largest and most contiguous undeveloped natural area within Ramsey. The City <br />presently has about half of the land acquired (through Park Dedications and a LCCMR grant) to construct this trail. <br />This trail has a regional context. There is a trail proposed to connect Sherburne County and Ramsey to a metro regional park. This project may be a <br />good canidate for Legacy Ammendment funding. <br />Expenditures 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 Total <br />Improvements Other than Build 4,015,000 4,015,000 <br />Total 4,015,000 4,015,000 <br />Funding Sources 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 Total <br />Grants and Aids 4,000,000 4,000,000 <br />Landfill Trust Fund 15,000 15,000 <br />Total 4,015,000 4,015,000 <br />Revised 10/2012 <br />
