INTRODUCTION
' The City of Albertville has experienced rapid development over the past several years. This
development has resulted in the community being dominated with primarily young families and
school -age children. A product of this situation has been dramatic increases in pressure on the
' City to provide recreational facilities of varying kinds and to generally expand the types and
locations of facilities from those which presently exist.
In response to this pressure, the City has opted to prepare a Comprehensive Park and Trail
System Plan for recreational development to meet the park and trail needs which have arisen and
which are expected to continue as population growth increases. The methodology used in the
Plan has been to identify the recreational needs and desires of the community through completion
of a resident survey and evaluation of the existing facilities as to how well the recreational needs
of citizens are being met at the current time. Following this, the Plan establishes the community's
policies/objectives in meeting both current and future recreational needs and provides an
integrated implementation plan to accomplish the objectives.
' This Plan endeavors to accomplish three primary objectives. First, the City of Albertville strives
to provide for the recreational needs of the residents in the most efficient manner possible. It is
recognized that the City cannot provide all desired recreational elements to every citizen, as
physical limitations such as land as well as monetary limitations will limit the location and extent
to which development of recreational amenities is possible. Efficiency becomes the key to
' planning, developing, and operating a park and trail system which will incorporate other
recreational providers such as the St. Michael -Albertville school district, Wright County, and
private providers such as golf courses. This balancing of priorities should provide the maximum
' return on the City's investment.
A second objective has been to streamline the development process in the City, and provide
' some equity between new and existing recreational development. Since new development places
new demands on the City's recreation service provision, the new development is called upon to
help provide land to meet the increased demand. The relationship between park and trail
' planning and the development process is one which already exists but one that can be refined
to work most positively for both private development interests and the public.
Finally, it is an objective of this Plan that a framework is established within which the City can deal
with issues that projections fail to anticipate. Any plan relies upon certain assumptions about the
' future environment that can limit the plan's usefulness when the assumptions fail to materialize.
This Plan, especially the policies it establishes, seeks to provide the City with guidance when it
faces issues which were previously unexpected.

INVENTORY
The first step in determining the needs of the City's recreational system is the identification of
existing conditions. For the purposes of the Albertville Comprehensive Park and Trail Plan, the
Inventory process takes two primary forms. First, the existing park and trail facilities were
' identified through a series of field inspections by Northwest Associated Consultants, Inc. A
written record was made with each facility to identify the service area of the park, surrounding
land uses, and physical amenities or characteristics which might affect the eventual use of the
park site. The items inventoried for each facility were gathered with the goal of being able to
place the park or trail within a system of recreational opportunities. The baseline data provided
in this effort helps the City to understand how its park facilities fit together and provides the
information necessary to identify gaps in or duplication of services.
The second category of Inventory data was collected through a mailed survey of residents park
and trail preferences. The survey requested respondents to identify current park use patterns,
and what changes they would like to see in Albertville's recreational system. This information is
then incorporated into the planning and design of park and trail elements. For additional
perspective, the survey data has been correlated with data from national publications as to the
guidelines for specific types of recreational facility development.

INVENTORY
EXISTING PARKS
The City of Albertville currently contains four parks, each varying is size, location, and service.
Existing parks play an important role not only in their overall recreational benefit to the community
residents but as a crucial destination point directly related to the establishment of trails. Allure
interrelated and each portion from the park land itself all the way down to a single picnic table or
foot of trail plays an important role in completing a recreational link, therefore adding to the
comprehensive system.
Lion's/City Park is the oldest and largest (in terms of usable land area) park in the City,
encompassing 5.11 acres. It was established with assistance from the Lion's Club and is the
most centrally located facility in the City. Situated on the east side of Lander Avenue adjacent
to the railroad, it offers an exercise area/fitness court, sand volleyball court, baseball/softball field,
large picnic shelter with 12 tables, small picnic shelter with 7 tables/storage building, gazebo with
one picnic table, basketball court, ice rink, playground, benches, drinking fountain/water faucet,
grill, port -a -potty, and gravel parking area. It has been suggested that the City expand this park
to the west to provide another ballfield, among other things, however, property acquisition and
detailed planning has yet to occur.
Four Season's Park is located on Barthel Drive on the north side of 51 st Street and
encompasses about 5.05 acres. It contains two tennis courts, basketball court, large playground,
shelter with 4 picnic tables, paved trails which connect to surrounding neighborhoods, benches,
water pump/drinking fountain, volleyball court, port -a -potty, small drainage pond, and paved
parking area.
Westwind Park is located in the western portion of Albertville within the Westwind development
that contains a mix of low, medium and high density residential homes. The park encompasses
14 acres, although only slightly over one acre is buildable. It was developed this past Fall as a
neighborhood tot lot/playground facility for children of varying ages. It contains a large play
structure and several smaller ones, benches and paved trails which traverse the park perimeter
and lead into the adjacent neighborhood.
Parkside Third Addition, a newly approved development, is currently being constructed in the
City: The development contains a 2.84 acre park area named Oakside which will remain
undeveloped into the short term future until time and monies are available for its planning and
design development. The land is to be expanded to the south when future subdivisions are
implemented to provide adequate area for a neighborhood park facility.
Swamp Lake Park, a small playground area located at the terminus of First Street NW in St.
Michael serves a small portion of Albertville in the Swamp Lake area. A trail provides access
' around the southern perimeter of Swamp Lake and could be extended within Albertville as land
develops in this area.

ESTABLISHED SCHOOL FACILITIES
Albertville Primary is an elementary school located on Main Avenue at 53rd Street. The
' southern portion of the property contains a playground area inclusive of a large play structure,
several swing sets, monkey bars, merry-go-round, basketball hoop, and multi -use paved area.
Plans for expansion of the school on its south side have prompted recent plan preparation of a
revised/expanded play area, discussed in following sections of this document.
The St. Michael -Albertville Area High School also provides athletic facilities for community -wide
use, although they may be somewhat more limited, as the student needs take precedent. The
school property contains a track/football field, open area to be used as football practice areas,
discus, and shotput; numerous tennis courts, and four ballfields (two for baseball and two for
softball).
I EXISTING SIDEWALKS & TRAILS
' Pedestrian trail facilities such as walking, jogging, bicycling, roller skating or in -line skating are
very limited in the City at the present time. Residents typically use local streets and paved
shoulders of collector and arterial roadways as pedestrian recreation or transportation routes
within the community or pursue off-street trails outside of the community. This is not only
inconvenient but can be dangerous as well.
A narrow sidewalk exists along portions of Main Avenue and 50th Street in the City. A six (6) foot
wide sidewalk is located on both sides of Main Avenue from 60th Street to 57th Street. The trail
on the west side narrows to four (4) feet and ends at 54th Street. The trail on the east side also
narrows to four (4) feet and continues to 50th Street (CSAH 35). A four (4) foot trail continues
easterly along 50th Street to Lansing Avenue.
Paved shoulders are located along CSAH 37 on both sides from CSAH 19 to the east end of the
1-94 bridge, along the east side of CSAH 19 in front of the Commercial Park and along the west
1 side of Barthel Industrial Drive from the railroad to 51 st Street.

INVENTORY
Snowmobile trails located within the City provide between five and six miles of
connection/access within the overall 225 mile Wright County system. The trails are jointly
established, operated and maintained by the Department of Natural Resources, Wright County
' Parks Department, Wright County Snowmobile Association, and local snowmobile groups.
Business owners contribute money for preparation of a colored trail route map (in exchange for
promotion of their facilities and services on the map) which is available to the public.
Furthermore, private landowners provide public easements for the seasonal use of their property
by snowmobiles.
The map on Page 4 shows the location of existing (winter 1996-97) snowmobile routes. The
designated trails are along the southern ditch of CSAH 37, extending west then south through the
Kolles and Pilot/Kenco properties. To the east the CSAH 37 trail leads through the industrial park
via Barthel Drive right-of-way and south through private industrial properties, extending across
50th Street into St. Michael. A third leg from CSAH 37 progresses east and north across the 1-94
bridge and follows Maclver Avenue into Otsego.

ISSUES & ANALYSIS
For any park and recreation system to be successful, it must be developed in a manner in which
it fulfills the physical, psychological, and recreational expectations of those it is intended to serve.
In many respects resident's perceptions as to the quality of life within a community is directly and
indirectly correlated to the quality of the park and trail system and open spaces that surround
them.
Assessing Albertville's park and recreation needs allows us the opportunity to develop an
understanding of the issues and concerns that are confronting the City and its residents. This
assessment will provide insight and direction necessary to prepare a plan that will guide the
development of the entire park and trail system.
SUMMARY OF SURVEY RESULTS
Together with the above analysis of park and trail facilities, the following summary of survey results
provide the City with a condensed set of factors showing what and where recreation elements are
desired or needed and where they're not. This is the foundation from which to build a
Comprehensive Park & Trail System Plan.
Existing Facilities
• Most used: playgrounds, picnic areas, softball/baseball fields, tennis courts
• Least used: exercise area, volleyball
• City needs to improve: Maintenance/condition of parks, size/design of facilities or
equipment
• Inadequate aspects of system: Lack of trails, lack of swimming area, poor park
maintenance, number of ballfields, playground
equipment in Lion's Park, condition of basketball
nets/rims, lack of in -line skating area, lack of natural
park areas with trees, lack of/poor condition of tennis
courts, no permanent restroom facility.
• Most exercised trail activities: Walking6ogging, bicycling, roller skating/in-line skating
• Location of trail activities at the present time: Local streets
• Recreational activities which most often draw persons out of the City:
Beach or lake swimming, fishing, swimming pool

ISSUES & ANALYSIS
• Recreational programs most used by residents:
Youth: Baseball/softball, hockey, boy/girl scouts, swimming, dancing/gymnastics
Adult: Baseball/softball, volleyball, community education
Future Facilities
• New parks should be developed where they are needed (66%-34%)
• Small neighborhood facilities are preferred (61 %-39%) over large, centralized ones
•
Expansion of Lion's Park favored: 49% yes, 26% maybe

Would use more if located in City: Swimming pool, trails of all types, beach or lake
swimming
•
Desired facilities: Trails, swimming pool, hockey/ice skating rink, golf, ballfields

•
Undesired facilities: Snowmobiles, ballfields, hockey, swimming pool, golf
•
Trail connections desired to (in order of priority): Residential neighborhoods,
schools, city parks and facilities,
regional parks and trails
•
Walking distance preferred: 1 mile or less
•
Trails of most interest to residents: Walking/jogging, biking/skating
•
Trails should be constructed using both multi -use trails and separate trails for pedestrian
and bicycle traffic
•
Residents preference for trail location is (in order of priority): All overland, all trails
'
off-street, all varying combinations
•
The majority of residents would purchase/live on a residential lot in the City if it were
located adjacent to a park or trail, however, most also wanted to see greater physical
separation and fencing and/or vegetative barriers to buffer the recreational use and keep
people off of their property.
•
With regard to spending, residents felt that each area or neighborhood should be
evaluated separately and that spending should be at an equal ratio for the establishment
of parks and trails.

PARK GUIDELINES & AREA REQUIREMENTS
According to the National Recreation and Park Association, a park system, at minimum, should
be composed of a core structure of parklands with a total of 6.25 to 10.5 acres of open space per
1,000 population. With a 1996 population of 2,213 after recent boundary changes, Albertville
should have between 13.83 to 23.24 acres of park land. The existing City parks and their sizes
are listed as follows:
Lion's/City Park
Four Season's
Westwind
Parkside 3rd (Unnamed)
5.11 acres (plus portion of railroad right-of-way
equals about 6 acres)
5.05 acres
1.40 acres (buildable portion of total 14 acres)
2.84 acres

The combined acreage of the four existing parks totals 14.4 to 15.3 acres which is within the
recommended standard, although on the low end of the spectrum. Consistent with the City's
viewpoints, this will require that additional park areas be established as additions to existing
parks or acquisition of new lands in future years. New park areas will be required to meet the
needs of current residents where facilities are lacking and to meet the overall needs of residents
as the population continues to grow. Based on population projections contained in the City's
Comprehensive Plan, the following table indicates the estimated parkland acreages which should
be achieved in future years.

PARK CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM
This classification system is intended to serve as a guide to planning, not a blueprint. The City
of Albertville recognizes the importance of establishing and using park and recreation standards
as: 1) an expression of minimum acceptable facilities for the citizens of the community, 2) a
guideline to determine land requirements for various kinds of park and recreation areas and
facilities, 3) a basis for relating recreational needs to spatial analysis within a community -wide
recreation system, 4) one of the major structuring elements that can be used to assist with
development, and 5) as a means to justify the need for parks and open space within the overall
land use pattern of the City. The following standards are to be coupled with conventional wisdom
and judgment relating to the particular situation to which they are applied and specific local
needs. Sometimes more than one component may occur within the same site, particularly with
regard to a specialized use within a larger park.

ISSUES & ANALYSIS
ASSESSMENT OF ALBERTVILLE RECREATION AREAS
Lion's/City Park is Albertville's main park facility and most heavily used park. At a minimal size
of 5.11 acres, the park draws users from throughout the community and functions both as an area
for casual activities as well as organized sporting events. While its size is adequate given the
current City population, continued growth has begun to put strains on the availability of certain
park elements and maintenance aspects related to its overuse.
Classified as a Community Playground, Lion's/City Park should at a minimum double in size to
encompass 10 acres within three years to provide the necessary space for added active
recreation facilities. As the City's only Community Playground within the Plan,. the park should
reach a size of 20 acres by the year 2010, although the high school athletic facilities assist with
meeting some of resident demands. In the long term, one could envision Lion's/City Park
expanding to include areas currently occupied by other land uses. For instance, should the need
for the railroad become obsolete as is anticipated, the park could expand northward to include
abandoned railroad property and be directly tied to a regional trail system, also utilizing what was
once railroad right-of-way. Furthermore, the expected phasing out of existing homes along 60th
Street would allow the park to directly abut City Hall property to create a unified public gathering
space. Such a configuration could enhance the business park concept envisioned for this area
along CSAH 37 and within the downtown area along Main Avenue. While such ideas may seem
far-fetched at this point in time, this type of positive thinking is what leads to constructive planning
and ultimate accomplishment.
Four Season's Park is classified as the City's only existing Neighborhood Park at a size of 5.05
acres. It is well designed and performs its function, to serve the immediate neighborhood area,
beautifully. It appropriately contains both active and passive recreation elements and provides
a large playground area to emphasize service to ages five through eighteen of the population.
It is within the desirable size range of neighborhood park facilities and is easily accessible with
r numerous neighborhood trail connections for safe walking and bicycle approaches.
The one improvement which would enhance the park is not an internal design factor, but rather
an associated matter. Barthel Drive is a major north -south collector route which provides
vehicular access to Four Season's and also links a large portion of Albertville residents to the
park. The road is heavily used as a walking corridor, however, no grade -separated trail access
is present. The recommendation, therefore, would be to implement such a trail on the west side
of Barthel Drive as indicated in the Comprehensive Park & Trail System Plan.
Westwind Park is the City's most recently developed Neighborhood Playground, encompassing
1.4 acres of upland. It provides a large playground area for young and elementary school aged
children, seating for adults and direct connection into adjacent residential neighborhoods to the
north and additional residential neighborhoods to the south which are currently being constructed.
Westwind Park is heavily used, as it provides the primary elements required of this type of park

ISSUES & ANALYSIS
Pedestrian/Bicycle Trails
Drastically evident on the map showing existing park and trail facilities in the City (page 4),
pedestrian and bicycle trails are nearly non-existent in Albertville. The few grade -separated trails
which do exist are in poor condition and wide enough to accommodate only a single user. The
paved shoulders along portions of CSAH's 37 and 19 and Barthel Drive are viewed as inadequate
with regard to safety. Furthermore, none of the trails provide connection to important destinations
or between one another. The door is basically wide open for the creation of a community -wide
trail system that provides a full range of options with regard to trail type, location and length.
Snowmobile Trails
As shown on the existing park and trail facilities map, designated trails (winter 1996-97) are
located along the southern ditch of CSAH 37, extending west then south through the Kolles and
Pilot/Kenco properties. This area is slated for development over the next several years.
Developers of the Kolles property have already consumed about 10 acres for the first phase of
a residential development and Pilot/Kenco is pursuing construction of a huge mixed residential
use development and golf course. Both developments will impact the locations where
snowmobiles have been permitted in the past. Similarly, another leg of the snowmobile trail
system progresses east and north from CSAH 37 across the 1-94 bridge and follows Maclver
Avenue into Otsego and will be impacted by the Swanson and D'Aigle residential developments,
potential commercial development adjacent to Hack's Convenience/Liquor Store and by the
planned realignment of Maclver Avenue in the future.
Another City project to severely impact previous snowmobile routes will be the upcoming
improvements to the CSAH 37/19 intersection this summer. In addition to roadway alignments
being altered significantly, this intersection will be transformed from a rural section design to an
urban section, thereby leaving no ditch area for use by the snowmobiles.
The portion of the Albertville snowmobile route to be least affected is that segment located to the
east of CSAH 37, leading through the industrial park via Barthel Drive right-of-way and south
through private industrial properties, extending across 50th Street into St. Michael. This route
too, however, may have to change slightly to accommodate the new building planned for Vetsch
Cabinets and possibly_ others within the Industrial Park. In all areas, details as to trail location,
trail width, snowmobile speed, and directional signage must be determined and explicitly defined
if the two types of trail uses (snowmobile and pedestrian/bicycle [multi -use] trails) are to coexist
successfully.

ISSUES & ANALYSIS
FACILITY & SERVICE AREA DEFICIENCIES
The existing facilities map on page 4 of this document shows the locations of the four existing
parks as well as their present service areas. Review of this data illustrates the inability of the
existing parks to adequately serve the City under its current physical limits. In a positive sense,
the undeveloped areas of the City, primarily north and west of CSAH 19, coincide with those
areas in need of a park facility. This will be an advantage to the community to be able to require
the dedication of land as specified in the Plan as properties develop. Other, smaller areas of the
City such as the properties north of Mud/School Lakes, Greenhaven Estates, and (less critically)
the southeast industrial park area also lack park services that must be addressed in the Plan.

COMPREHENSIVE PARK & TRAIL SYSTEM PLAN
The focus of the Albertville park and trail system is to establish and develop lands devoted to
public use to service, as a priority, existing residents and developed areas. Of equal importance,
however, is the establishment of park and trail areas to service new development/residents as
subdivisions are platted while looking ahead to the long-term overall recreation needs of the
community. The Comprehensive Park & Trail System Plan aids in all of these objectives by
indicating the optimum location of future park facilities on a general basis, in relation to existing
parks and anticipated trail facilities. It is not the intent of the Plan to target specific properties for
future park development. Instead, the optimum area for acquisition is shown to work toward the
goal of providing the City with the ability to reserve land from development or acquire land as it
becomes available.
While the chosen locations for park development are based on a multitude of factors, including
existing and anticipated subdivisions, residential distribution, neighborhood size, and
local/regional facilities, the primary focus of the park system plan is to provide an equitable
recreational structure based on park type and service area. Thus, the Proposed Park Locations
& Service Area and Proposed Trail maps go hand in hand in guiding all future park development.
The Proposed Park Locations & Service Area map, which follows, identifies the varying types of
park facilities and their service areas. This directly relates to the park classification system which
was outlined in the previous section. The Recreational Facility Names and Locations map on
page 21 indicates the names of existing parks, recreational facilities, and plats (some pending)
as well as showing names given to some future parks.
The park components and special characteristics of this recreation classification represent the
core of the future Albertville park system. These types of parks are the fundamental building
blocks of the community's park system. Each residential neighborhood should possess equal
access and level of facilities for its citizens. Individual parks should have varying physical
characteristics, however, their facilities should provide a uniform level of quality recreation and
park experience. While site suitability (land type, size, and access) is a critical consideration in
establishing park locations, specific park sites for future establishment in the currently agricultural
areas of the City are difficult to anticipate. Though proposed park and trail locations are reflective
of known development concepts at this time, they can only be estimated until more definitive
future plats are submitted and approved which may require deviation, to a certain degree, from
the Plan. Other physical constraints such as drainage basins, flood plains, and wetlands must
also be considered in association with the expected expansion of residential development areas.
While it is assumed that much of the west and northwest areas of the City represent future
locations for the establishment of recreational facilities, planning cannot be accomplished too
early. The following paragraphs describe individual components of the Plan.

PROPOSED PARK LOCATIONS AND SERVICE AREAS
This section of the Plan provides an estimate of acquisition/dedication timing for the designated
park areas and suggests possible development scenarios. While details as to the exact location,
size, and use of the planned facility will be determined in the long term as opportunities for
development approach and monies are available, on a preliminary basis the Planning & Zoning
Commission has suggested the uses/improvements shown on the following table.
Lion's/City Park (Community Playground)
From its current size of 5.11 acres, Lion's/City Park should at a minimum double in size to
encompass 10 acres within three years to provide the necessary space for added active
recreation facilities. As the City's only Community Playground within the Plan, the park should
reach a size of 20 acres by the year 2010, although the high school athletic facilities assist with
meeting some of resident demands. In the long term, one could envision Lion's/City Park
expanding to include areas currently occupied by other land uses. For instance, should the need
for the railroad become obsolete as is anticipated, the park could expand northward to include
abandoned railroad property and be directly tied to a regional trail system, also utilizing what was
once railroad right-of-way. Furthermore, the expected phasing out of existing homes along 60th
Street would allow the park to directly abut City Hall property to create a unified public gathering
space. Such a configuration could enhance the business park concept envisioned for this area
along CSAH 37 and within the downtown area along Main Avenue. While such ideas may seem
far-fetched at this point in time, this type of positive thinking is what leads to constructive planning
and ultimate accomplishment.
Winter Park (Neighborhood Park or Community Park)
The Comprehensive Park & Trail System Plan designates a Neighborhood Park in the west
central portion of the City at a gross size of approximately 18 acres. This park as shown would
encompass part of the Pilot Cedar Creek North Development (8 acres inclusive of wetlands) and
Kolles (Little Mountain Development - 10 acres) properties. The park has been established on
a preliminary basis, pending approval of plats for both properties which will dictate the final land
configuration and size of the park. While it has been questioned whether the City should acquire
the full ten acres for a park as indicated in the approved Kolles concept, without the designation
of a Community Park in the City and the limited size of Lion's/City Park, the Kolles/Pilot park may
serve a dual purpose. It is recommended that Albertville take advantage of the opportunity to
acquire the land while the area is still unimproved and until the City determines what types of
specific recreation uses are needed in the area. The Subdivision Ordinance requires that where
land is to be dedicated to the City for park use as part of a plat, the area must be at least five
percent of the plat's gross land area. For the Kolles property, this amounts to 158,994 square
feet or 3.65 acres. This leaves 6.35 acres of land that the City would need to acquire on their
own through purchase or some other agreed upon alternative. This 6.35 acres in combination
with the net Pilot land area (5-6 acres) would provide developable recreation area up to
approximately 12 acres. However, should the City opt to increase the park dedication

requirements, for instance up to ten percent of a plat's gross land area, the 3.65 acre amount
would double to 7.2 acres.
Oakside Park (Neighborhood Park)
At its current size of 2.84 acres, this park is not adequate to serve future development in areas
surrounding it. For this reason, it has been shown as being expanded to a minimum size of five
acres thereby encompassing land to the south with direct access to a public street (cul-de-sac)
and trail connection to 53rd Street. The Pilot Center Oaks Development which was recently
approved by the Planning Commission proposes to add 2. 17 acres to the area platted as part
of Parkside Third. The two areas will together provide 5.01 acres for Oakside Park. The
Meadows (Lyman Development) plat provides grade -separated trail connection from Oakside
Park to 53rd Street.
Four Season's Park (Neighborhood Park)
Through analysis of existing park facilities, Four Season's Park was shown to be a well -designed
and functioning recreational facility. Aside from grade -separated trail connection along Barthel
Drive, no other improvements have been recommended in this area as part of the Plan,
Hamburg Park (Neighborhood Park)
A third Neighborhood Park area has been located on the Balfany property or in the general
vicinity between CSAH 19 and Mud Lake as part of the Plan. The planned park will serve the
majority of the northeast portion of the City in combination with a small Neighborhood Playground
(Crow River Park) located somewhere on the D'Aigle property. Hamburg Park is shown to
encompass a portion of the School Lake shoreline in order to provide more diversity in the City's
recreational system, with potential for development of a fishing pier, wildlife observation point, or
some other water -oriented activity/ facility.
Southside Park (Neighborhood Park)
A fourth Neighborhood Park has been located in the southwest corner of Albertville to serve the
area which is generally segregated from the rest of the community by County Highway 118. This
location is not within the City's sanitary sewer service area and will most likely be one of the last
areas to develop.
Neighborhood Playgrounds
Five new areas for the establishment of Neighborhood Playgrounds have been designated on the
Plan. They are located on the D'Aigle property (Crow River Park), near Greenhaven Estates
(Frankfort Park), on the Marx property (Hidden Park), and on the Sybrant property (Knights Park).
Each will serve the recreational needs of children in the immediately abutting (future)
neighborhoods.

Private Facilities (Future Golf Course and Future Ice Arena)
The Albertville City Council recently approved plans for an indoor ice arena to be constructed
within the commercial park near the intersection of CSAH's 37 and 19. The project will be jointly
funded, operated and utilized by the communities of St. Michael and Albertville and the St.
Michael -Albertville Youth Hockey Association and School District. Conceptual plans have been
approved pending submission of site data such as soil tests and wetland delineation and detailed
drawings of the site elements and building.
Another private recreational facility, a golf course, is currently being planned for a large area west
of CSAH 19, proximate to County Highway 118. The 18-hole golf course, clubhouse and driving
range have been integrated with large lot single family and twinhome residential development.
The project would likely be processed as a planned unit development, incorporating curvilinear
streets with varying lot widths, parks and trails. Conceptual plans have not been approved to
date.
School Recreation Areas
The St. Michael -Albertville school district has two facilities located in the City. As mentioned
earlier, the Albertville Primary elementary facility contains a playground area inclusive of a large
play structure, several swing sets, monkey bars, merry-go-round, basketball hoop, and multi -use
paved area. Plans for expansion of the school on its south side have prompted recent plan
preparation of a revised/expanded play area concept by the City Engineer. In order to
accommodate the building addition, the proposed play area is shown behind the building in
association with an auxiliary parking area. The plan also shows a park shelter, turf playing field
for soccer/football and two little league ball diamonds. Lastly, the plan serves to improve
drainage on and adjacent to the property by installing a drain tile beneath the play areas, leading
to a ponding area at the rear (east side) of the property. One item lacking from the concept plan
is trail access which would provide through access to residential neighborhoods north and south
of the school property as well as direct connection to Main Avenue.
The St. Michael -Albertville Area High School also provides athletic facilities for community -wide
use, although they may be somewhat more limited, as the student needs take precedent. The
school property contains a track/football field, open area to be used as football practice areas,
discus, and shotput; numerous tennis courts, and four ballfields (two for baseball and two for
softball). At this time there have been no proposed changes to this configuration.

PROPOSED TRAILS
COMPREHENSIVE PARK & TRAIL SYSTEM PLAN
Destinations
The City of Albertville trail system has been planned to provide recreation for its residents but
also to provide a safe, alternative means of transportation to and from points of interest or
destinations. Existing destination points in the City, shown on the following map, include schools,
existing parks, retail businesses and services, residential neighborhoods, lakes/wetlands, and
neighboring communities.
Arterial and Collector Roads (Grade -Separated Trails)
All County or City roads designated as either arterial or major/minor collector routes contain a
grade -separated trail along at least one side of the paved surface as shown on the Plan. The
only exception to this is the oldest portion of 57th Street located east of Main Avenue and those
portions of 53rd Street which are currently in place and have developed properties adjacent to
s them. Arterial and collector routes as designated in the Comprehensive Land Use Plan have
been identified below. The Plan states that arterial and major collector routes shall provide trails
ten (10) feet in width while minor collector streets need only to provide eight (8) feet of trail width.
In some areas, however, the Planning & Zoning Commission may recommend deviation from
these width standards where existing development will be impacted by the acquisition of land,
establishment of access easements, and/or construction of trails.

COMPREHENSIVE PARK & TRAIL SYSTEM PLAN
Local Roads (On -Street Trails)
All local roads in the City will be used as trail routes, most commonly as connections between
other parts of the trail system or for short local trips. As shown on the Plan, some local streets
may be designated as on -street trails through the use of striped pedestrian lanes (no parking),
signage, and/or some other indicator. These will simply indicate to unfamiliar users that the road
provides an alternative (through) route and that it will return to meet with another portion of the
rgrade -separated trail system or a park facility without being dead -ended.
Overland Trails
As an alternative to on -street or grade -separated trails which typically are associated with
vehicular rights -of -way and usually run close/parallel to streets, overland trails have also been
designated in the Plan. Although slightly more difficult to establish because of the additional
need for land (designated right-of-way in residential areas and easements in
commercial/industrial areas) and their relationship to adjacent properties, these types of trails in
many cases provide access to areas which would otherwise be inaccessible or privately owned
(ie: through school or park property and adjacent to wetlands). A small percentage of the overall
trail system plan has been designated for overland trail establishment. These areas are
interspersed throughout the community, predominantly adjacent to natural wetland areas and
through City parks.
Trail Construction
When being established as part of a newly subdivided area, the Plan indicates that all types of
trails shall be installed by the developer to satisfy a portion of the park dedication requirement.
Trails may be located on -street (requiring no developer action or cost), within the street right-of-
way as a grade -separated trail (requiring the developer to construct the trail within the street right-
of-way) or may lead through certain blocks of the subdivision as overland trails. When trails are
designated overland in residential areas and located along the side or rear of lots, the Plan
requires that a minimum thirty (30) foot corridor be established as dedicated land within which the
trail shall be located. In commercial and industrial areas developers will also be required to
construct trails but, when located outside of the street right-of-way, easements will be required
rather than dedicated _corridors to allow the property owner maximum use of his/her land.
Railroad Corridor
The Burlington Northern Railroad currently operates and maintains the railroad tracks which pass
through Albertville. Should the need for train transport become obsolete and Burlington Northern
wishes to abandon the tracks, the Plan indicates the establishment of a future (long term)
overland trail within this corridor for potential connection to a continuing regional trail system.
Many unneeded rail corridors have been transformed in this manner through assistance from the
Rails to Trails Conservancy.

COMPREHENSIVE PARK &TRAIL SYSTEM PLAN
Snowmobile Trails
The Proposed Trails map has identified several routing options for the continuation, relocation
and/or establishment of snowmobile trails in the community. The Wright County Snowmobile
Association as well as local groups work with land owners on a yearly basis to gain access to
private property desired as part of a snowmobile trail route. The trail plan cannot begin to
anticipate specific snowmobile trail locations, thus only suggestions have been made as to how
the trails might be accomplished without interfering with established pedestrian and bicycle trail
routes. As city development progresses and population increases, establishing snowmobile
routes for seasonal use will become a greater challenge. The key to a successful existence will
be open lines of communication and positive relationships between snowmobile associations and
landowners. Even more critical, however, will be the careful management of trail corridors and
proper utilization by riders to avoid conflicts with Albertville residents.
Connections to Adjacent Municipalities
The City of Albertville Comprehensive Park & Trail System Plan provides for extension or
connection of trails in all directions, to all adjacent communities. In the case of St. Michael, trails
on the south side of Swamp Lake extend toward the joint municipal border, making connection
opportunities obvious. In all other areas immediately surrounding Albertville trails are non-
existent, thus to a large degree, future trail connections will be the responsibility of Otsego and
St. Michael. However, Albertville should continue to promote trail connections and will need to
evaluate design options to ensure that trail routes as shown on the Plan are attainable in the field.
CITY OF ALBERTVILLE

I
POLICY PLAN
Park and recreation planning in any community occurs at three levels. Maps and plans provide
graphic visualization of physical resources. But no matter how extensive, they cannot anticipate
every eventuality. Growth in the City may occur in new locations which the Comprehensive Park
' & Trail System Plan does not expect or it may occur much faster or slower than originally thought.
Proposed land use types and streets may have to be changed in response to present day
circumstances which will in tum alter the planned park and trail system. For this reason, policies
are developed which can be applied to new situations.
The Policy Plan is the first and most critical part of the planning process. It is a strategic
' management tool which reflects the community's general treatment of its recreation facilities and
services, and provide more detailed guidance on park/trail development and maintenance
' standards. Community recreation standards are the means by which a City can express their
goals and objectives in quantitative terms, which in turn can be translated into spatial
requirements for physical resources.
' OVERALL SYSTEM POLICIES
' 1. Develop an on -going planning process for the establishment of parks and trails which
responds to the Comprehensive Land Use Plan Policies as well as those identified herein.
2. Develop goals and priorities for park/trail acquisition and development.
3. identify present and future park/trail needs on a continual basis for evaluation by the
Planning and Zoning Commission as development proposals are considered and
recommendations are made to the City Council.
4. Update physical plans and related documents as necessary to respond to changes in
goals, needs, priorities, and budget.
' 5. Plan for recreational facilities and budget needs by preparing a master plan for each
component of the park/trail system to be used as the basis for development.
' 6. Promote public participation in the planning process via the Planning and Zoning
Commission to host a forum for open discussion of issues.
7. Promote integration with other City activities, services, and facilities.
' 8. Identify the means by which to implement park/trail administration and operations (ie: by
the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council policies, procedures, and
ordinances).

ACQUISITION POLICIES
' 1. Acquisition of land for future park and trail development will be a high priority for the City
and shall be acquired (preferrably through dedication or purchase) in advance of actual

floodplain areas, etc. should not be included in the acreage calculation, but may be
accepted as a portion of the recreational system for aesthetic or environmental or wildlife
preservation purposes.
5. Land acquired will remain as easily maintainable open space until it is financially feasible
for the City to develop and maintain more intense recreational facilities.
6. Besides the standard recreational programs and facilities typically recognized by the City,
consideration should be given to the following areas:
a. Areas for nature preservation.
b. Historic preservation.
C. Cultural enrichment.
d. Facilities for the handicapped/disabled.
e. Public activity areas and facilities in employment centers or privately owned
developments.
f. Organized sports and recreational activities.

and trail policies and are in keeping with the intent of this Plana In other areas which serve
no system purpose, owners of land shall contribute cash to be used in the purchase and/or
development of community recreational areas when the need for land is not apparent.
However, the City may consider through special agreements the dedication of equipment
or services which assist in achieving the overall park and trail plan objective.

9. Land for parks or trails may be acquired through dedication, purchase, eminent domain,
donation, or other means appropriate to the situation including easements or leases.
10. The sources of funds to be utilized for acquisition may include park/trail dedication fund,
general fund, capital improvement program, bond issuance, grant programs, or any other
source appropriate to the situation.
' 11. Access to park and trail areas within residential subdivisions must be provided by
developers from public rights -of -way and/or adjacent lands at minimum standards
established within this document (refer to following policies for details regarding this
provision).
12. With the exception of trails and passive/unobtrusive facilities or activities, park areas
' acquired shall be of sufficient size to provide no less than a twenty (20) foot setback from
private property lines to the activity or equipment to be located within the park.
PROGRAMMING/DEVELOPMENT PO
LICIES
1. Create and maintain an attractive, diverse, and interesting system of urban and rural
parks/trails including but not limited to multi -use trails (for pedestrians, bicycles, roller-
skates/in-line skates, and skate boards), sidewalks, nature or hiking paths, snowmobiling
trails, and cross-country ski trails (multi -use trails during the winter).
' 2. Create a City-wide park and trail system designed to minimize conflicts between
pedestrians and motor vehicles.
3. Minimize construction costs whenever possible by installing parks or trails in conjunction
with other planned improvements at the state, county, and city level.

promote the installation of buffers such as vegetative plantings or fencing to screen views
and noise from recreation system users and to define the boundaries of public -private
areas.
7. Utilize abandoned railroad rights -of -way or utility easements for trails or linear parks where
appropriate to promote space conservation and aesthetic improvements.
' 8. The Planning and Zoning Commission shall review park dedication fees on a bi-annual
basis to ensure compatibility with land costs (to be equitable with developers required to
dedicate land) and with the City's needs or planned improvement costs.
' 9. Promote the establishment of parks and trails within new subdivisions and redevelopment
areas which are proportionate to the impacts of additional homes/people on the park and
trail system and which are to be installed by the developer/landowner.

10. Through the utilization of park dedication funds or other possible means, work to upgrade
existing trails and establish new trails within existing neighborhoods and developed
portions of the City which complement and provide connection to other community or
regional trails. .
11. Encourage the private sector and community organizations to provide recreational
opportunities, facilities, equipment or services whenever possible.
12. Unsolicited gifts and donations toward the community recreation system will be accepted
by the City if they are free of obligations or impacts which limit use later, do not offend
other segments of the community, do not have hidden costs for development or
maintenance which is beyond the City's financial resources, and are in the City's best
interest.

1. Establish trail facilities which provide recreational as well as functional uses.
2. Establish trail corridors that minimize stop signs, cross traffic, and mixing with other modes
of transportation
3. The types of trails to be used as the basis of planning and development are as follows:
a. On -Street Trails/Paved Shoulders: These trails share the same paved surface as
the roadway that they follow. They are designed for multiple uses and may be
located on Une or both sides of the street.
b. Grade -Separated Trails/Sidewalks: These trail segments are separated from the
adjacent roadway by a strip of land/plantings or physical structure (preferably not
less than five feet wide). They are designed for the integration of a variety of
compatible non -motorized trail uses including pedestrians, bicycles, skate -boards,
roller-skates or in -line skates. They shall generally follow street rights -of -way, but
may be setback varying distances from a road for aesthetic, safety, maintenance,
or snow storage reasons depending upon the classification of roadway with which
they are associated (traffic volumes, speed, etc).
C. Overland Trails/Linear Parks: These trail segments shall provide a standard trail
width within a significantly wider right-of-way and shall be located away from street
corridors, not typically parallel to the street surface. They should be designed to
incorporate vegetation, seating, picnic areas, and playgrounds or other supporting

site elements and may serve a dual purpose as a buffer strip or separated bikeway.
Abandoned railroad rights -of -way and many utility easements fall into this category.
4. All trails located along arterial and major collector streets should be a minimum of ten (10)
feet wide.
5. All trails located on or along local or minor collector streets should be a minimum of eight
(8) feet wide for two-way traffic (one side of the street) or six (6) feet wide on both sides
of the street for one-way traffic, although lesser widths may be necessary in established
residential areas and where space is limited. In no case, shall a trail be installed at less
than a four (4) foot width.
6. In cases where trails lie adjacent to new residential development or are not located within
public rights -of -way, a minimum corridor size of thirty (30) feet shall be provided which ,
in addition to the required trail, may be used for the establishment of vegetative screening
or accessory park/trail elements. Distances to existing homes may be less in cases where
I� space it tight.

7. The required thirty (30) foot corridor shall be dedicated as parkland in residential areas or
in special cases an easement may be established provided lot depths are increased to
accomodate the width of the corridor. Within commercial and industrial areas an
easement will be required, but the establishment of such will not necessitate a change in
the required lot size or setback requirements.
8. In residential areas (local streets only) on -street trails may be unmarked, paved with a
stripe, or identified by a sign. On -street trails associated with collector or arterial streets
are not desired for long term use, however, where necessary they should always have a
specially marked shoulder area and/or be sign identified.
9. It shall be the City's responsibility to implement new trails in existing neighborhoods or to
redevelop insufficient facilities where necessary over time.
10. Trails shall be constructed according to the standards established in the City's Standard
Detail Plates document dated September 12, 1996 or as otherwise specified by the City
Engineer.
11. Developers who wish to subdivide land which includes designated new trail corridors in
the comprehensive system plan will be required to dedicate and construct trails in the
location and manner approved by the City Council. Those land owners who abut areas
designated for trails will be required to plan for and accommodate such in the event that
development/subdivision of their property occurs.

IMPLEMENTATION
The final phase of the Park and Trail System Plan establishes a process of projecting land
acquisition and park/trail improvements, setting priorities, and scheduling for their provision and
financing over a period of time. This process produces a long-range guide for recreation and
requires that the City look toward the future to anticipate capital expenditures and to provide
revenues to meet them. This section does not take the place of a capital improvements plan in
that precise costs are beyond the scope of this document, however, the City must begin thinking
about establishment of a five year priority list, analyzing their financial situation, and obtaining
cost estimates for the desired short term improvements.
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROCESS
Capital improvement programming provides an instrument for carrying out the objectives and
recommendations of the Albertville Comprehensive Park and Trail System Plan. Through
prioritization of five year capital needs for the City's park and recreational facilities and identifying
the amount of money available to finance the improvements during this period, the City will be
able to determine which improvements are necessary in terms of their ability to pay. The capital
improvement program (CIP) is a flexible process, in that as the social, physical and financial
conditions change within the City, the priority of the scheduled projects may also change. In
response to the changes in the City, the CIP must be an on -going process. Each year the CIP
should be re-evaluated for consistency with the Plan, current recreational needs, and fiscal
condition of the City.
The following process should be utilized by the Planning and Zoning Commission and City
Council when reviewing potential park capital improvement projects.
Establish a five year priority list of park/trail capital improvements that reflects current and
projected recreation demands. Annually review and revise the five year priority list to
reflect current demand and needs.
2. Analyze the City's current financial situation.
3. Obtain up to date cost estimates for high priority items.
4. Develop project descriptions and plans for the desired improvements which include
proposed scheduling and phasing.
5. Make copies available of the CIP for public inspection prior to the City Council's
presentation of the annual budget at the required public hearing.
6. Begin the process over again following approval of the CIP and the beginning of another
calendar year.

IMPLEMENTATION
It is recommended that a specific annual CIP review schedule be established for the review of
potential park/trail projects. This will enable persons who wish to request consideration of new
items to present their position in ample time to change the CIP, if necessary, in a manner
consistent with community needs and reducing or eliminating financial commitments being made
for projects which might not proceed to the final construction stage in the event that they are
deleted or moved back on the priority list.
1997-1998 PARK PRIORITIES
Parks shall be constructed on a priority basis, according to the City's capital improvement plan
and available funds. The following park projects represent the top priorities (in the order listed)
as determined by the Planning and Zoning Commission at the time of document completion in the
Summer of 1997. The projects shall be budgeted into the City's 5-year Capital Improvement Plan
and shall be completed as time allows.
1. Overall Recreation System - Better maintenance of land (ie: weed problem and sand under
playground apparatus) and equipment; Resolve current staffing problem and plan for
additional staff as the recreational system grows.
2. Lion's/City Park Land acquisition from Marx
3. Lion's/Ciw Park - Upgrade or replace playground equipment.
4. Oakside Park - Plan for development and purchase of equipment.
5. Winter Park - Plan for development.

ILOCAL FUNDING SOURCES
Park Dedication Fees
For the most part, it is this Plan's intention to provide parks and trails which will not burden the
City with high acquisition and construction costs. Land and right-of-way for construction of new
recreation facilities will be acquired as part of the dedication process of a subdivision, as
donations/gifts, or as an improvement (in the case of trails) to be included as roads are built or
upgraded wherever possible. Due to the obstacles that may arise through acquisition of land for
parks and trails, the Comprehensive Park and Trail System Plan provides a general layout of
proposed park locations and trail routes which may need to be altered at the time of property
development and acquisition.
At the present time, park land dedication contributions required of developers as a cash donation
is $500 per single family residential unit in the City. This fee is charged in those areas where no
park land is required or where only a portion of the land dedication amount has been met, and
is used for acquisition and development throughout the City. While this process is fairly
consistent with neighboring communities, the fee amount as it stands in relation to land costs
makes it more advantageous for developers to pay the park dedication fee rather than dedicate
land. Furthermore, the current park dedication requirement does not take into account the
resident needs (highlighted in the recent survey) and expanded facilities shown in this Plan, both
of which will be used as the basis for construction of recreation elements.
Without an increase in the park dedication fee, the source of funds budgeted by the City annually
for maintenance, development and improvement of parks will be consumed without having met
resident needs at a time when population is on a continual rise and development is rampant. An
analysis of the proposed system plan, including both parks and trails, in terms of project costs and
its impact on the overall system must be determined. Using this data, the necessary increase in
park dedication fees can be justified and equitably applied to future subdivision development.
Park & Trail System Cost Analysis
An estimated cost of city-wide park and trail improvements has been provided as follows and
demonstrates the rationale behind increased fees. Both the process of cost estimating and
resulting recommendation for fee increases were endorsed by the City Attorney.
Also in consideration of park dedication fee and land dedication requirements, an analysis of
requirements in surrounding area communities has been provided (Appendix B). Additionally,
Appendix C includes example site improvement costs for various park and trail elements to assist
in the planning and budgeting process.

If the total park and trail costs of $4,768,800 were to be divided equally among all residential
dwelling units in the City (2,750) the per unit cost would be $1,734. If a 10 percent dedication
amount were used for land dedications, the City would save $162,500 in acquisition costs thereby
bringing the amount per unit cost to $1,675. The dedicated lands acquired at 10 percent of the
developers property area would provide parks slightly larger than shown on the plan and all parks
would remain within the desirable range of acreage. If at any time, the amount of land was
deemed excessive, the City may always require a combination of land and cash.
CITY OF ALBERTVILLE
1997 COMPREHENSIVE PARK & TRAIL SYSTEM PLAN
47
IMPLEMENTATION
While
the cost of $1,734 per unit as calculated above takes all residential units in the City into
account, the amount is deceiving for two reasons. Because units within subdivisions where land
is dedicated (acreage based on current plans) do not contribute to the cash fund, the amount per
unit is actually higher. Furthermore, the total 2,750 dwelling units includes those which already
exist and also won't be contributing dedication monies. Therefore, the total park and trail cost of
$4,768,800 divided by only new units (1,755) yields a per unit cost of $2,717.
If the City of Albertville were to rely on strictly new residential dwelling units, it would need to raise
its park dedication fee to $2,717 based on the analysis above to implement the park and trail
improvements indicated and "break even". However, this is neither a realistic nor fair expectation
and is excessive in relation to neighboring communities and other municipalities in the region.
Furthermore, this does not take into commercial and industrial dedications, account donations,
grant awards, or bonding amounts which may be obtained. The use of these and other methods
will be critical to the success of the park and trail implementation process.
A recommendation is also necessary for the percent of land area required from residential
developments. Currently the requirement is 5% for less than 9 units per acre and 5.5% for 9 or
more dwelling units per acre (plus 1/2% increase for each dwelling unit per acre over 9). Our
office recommends 10 and 11%, respectively, based on the calculated park/trail costs with which
land dedications must be parallel so as not to make cash dedications more desirable or profitable
to developers than land dedications.
Commercial & Industrial Analysis: The City as currently zoned contains 343 acres of
commercial and 215 acres of industrial land. In addition to this, is the +/-100 acres of land
designated Planned Unit Development in anticipation of the outlet mall. Comparing the existing
5% requirement with a (proposed) 10%requirement, the following dedication fees would be

At 5%: Total Improvement Costs 4 768 800 less $560,750 = $4,208,050 divided by the
total number of residential units expected (2,750) = $1,530 per residential unit cost
At 10%: Total Improvement Costs 4 768 800 less $1,021,500 = $3,747,300 divided b
the total number of residential units expected (2,750) = $1,362 per residential unit cost
Recommended Dedication Fee Increase: It is recommended that the increase in park fees
should be at a total cost of $1,300 per unit, based on the analysis above. This equates to an
amount comprising about 50% of the unit cost (per new residential units) of $2,717 calculated
initially. In reality, new or expected residential units in the City make up 66% of the total
anticipated dwelling units in the community.
The City must consider several things when deciding at what amount to set the park dedication
fee. Most obviously is the speed at which development is desired. If in fact the City is in no hurry
to increase its residential population and associated maintenance costs, then a raise in the park
fee should be viewed positively in that it may tend to slow development (to a certain degree,
depending upon how high the fee is set). Political viewpoints and Land competition also play a
part in the decision, but should not cloud the real picture. Lastly, the physical need/demand for
and prioritization of park and trail facilities will impact the decision, showing how badly the
parks/trails are wanted or needed. Most importantly, however, is the fact that through this cost
analysis, we have shown the recommended increase of $1,300 to be equitable and proportional
to the development's impact on the recreational system.
Regardless of the fee amount, it is assumed that levy amounts, grants, donations, etc. will cover
the remaining costs such as design/planning of individual park areas, administrative time for
ordinance amendments and review as well as inflated construction costs. Maintenance would be
covered by the recommended $50 per year user fee to be charged to existing households (see
draft ordinance).
User/Service Fees
Although historically limited to special use recreational facilities, such as hockey arenas or
swimming pools, the use of user/service fees as a financing tool is being expanded by many
communities to include other facilities and programs. User/service fee revenues can be
generated on a user basis for such activities as golf, tennis, swimming, and team sports such as
softball, baseball, soccer, football, etc. A key component required for instituting user/service fees
as a revenue source is having a defined and identifiable user population. The decision to use
these types of fees will generally reflect considerations such as projected costs, availability of
other sources of funding and local recreation policies. Rates for residents may differ from those
outside the City and should be set at a level which will, at least in part, off -set the costs of
developing and maintaining public facilities.

IMPLEMENTATION
CONCEPT PLANS
Usually prepared in a series, concept plans are site -specific and serve as the basic documents
for the layout, facility mix, landscaping, and construction details for a park or recreation facility.
For this reason, they are best prepared once the Comprehensive Park and Trail System Plan has
been completed and location of individual park sites determined. They are based upon a well-
defined program of recreation facilities and services to be provided and the overall physical
arrangement of such. The City opted not to include such plans within this document, but rather
pursue completion of such in future years. Their preparation will become a necessity in defining
project costs as part of the yearly budgeting or Capital Improvement Process.
LAND ACQUISITION
Park and trail land dedication will play a major role in acquiring and developing park/trail facilities,
particularly in the western and northern portions of the City, although is not possible in all cases.
Acquisition through dedication is a long-term process since land can only be obtained as the
abutting land is developed. While the outright purchase of land is many times prohibitive due to
investment costs and anticipated benefit per capita through the City, it will be necessary where
developments are already in place and lack recreational facilities or to acquire special, distinct
pieces of land which would otherwise be difficult or impossible to obtain through park dedication.
While portions of Albertville contain developments that are already in place where several of the
trail corridors are proposed and will likely require land acquisition through purchase or the
establishment of easements, the utilization of road rights -of -way can also provide an easy
alternative for establishing public trail routes.
CONSISTENCY WITH PLAN ELEMENTS & ORDINANCES
Parks and trails have a positive, but often intangible, effect on the economy and quality of life in
suburban areas. A healthy attractive neighborhood results when a combination of factors are
present, for example, well kept homes, adequate jobs, quality public services, including well
planned and maintained recreation facilities. Many communities are encouraging the
rehabilitation of older homes in established neighborhoods where, congruently, parks and trails
can also be upgraded or expanded where necessary.
In this regard, it is important that the Park and Trail Policy Plan contained herein is followed in
association with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan Policies. In fact, the Park and Trail System
Plan will actually be adopted as an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan. Implementation
programs involving capital outlays, levied fees, zoning and related actions must be consistent with
the Plan's policies. Arbitrary departure from adopted or endorsed policy statements could lead
to litigation. The focus of attention on a broad policy framework provides more flexibility for
CITY OF ALB ERTVILLE

IMPLEMENTATION
guiding governmental response to rapid physical, economic and social change. Since the Plan
documents a continuous planning process and records this evolution only for a given segment
of time, regular review and updating are critical.
Along these lines, the City's Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances must also be consistent with
established Plan elements or they will be difficult, if not impossible to command and execute.
Ordinance amendments are a critical part of the Implementation process which should directly
follow completion of this Plan. Without update of existing code requirements, the City may miss
out on opportunities to realize potential benefits of newly established policies, particularly when
the development season is upon us and the rate of growth is accelerating throughout the
community. Specific ordinance criteria to address includes: park dedication requirements, trail
width and location standards, tree planting requirements, etc.
PROGRAM ASSISTED FUNDING OPTIONS
While parkland acquisition and development are capital outlays that are typically financed with
the revenues from City dedication or general funds, there are other methods available to assist
the City in raising necessary money for large projects. The following grant programs may be
available to the City if the intended project(s) comply with the submission criteria.
DNR Outdoor Recreation Grant Program (LAWCON - Land and Water Conservation Fund)
The goal of the Outdoor Recreation Grant Program is to assist communities in acquiring,
developing, and/or redeveloping facilities for outdoor recreation use. The grants can fund up to
50 percent of a total project cost, while the remaining local share can consist of local funding,
materials, labor, and equipment through local sponsors or donations. The land must be owned
by the applicant and must be developed completely within three years from the date of fund
acquisition. One or more of the following facilities must be included in a proposed project.
Baseball/Softball Fields
Boat Launching Sites
Canoe Access Sites
Fishing Piers/Shore Fishing
Nature Study/Observation Areas
Playgrounds
Swimming Beaches
Trails
Basketball/Hard Courts
Campgrounds
Cross -Country Ski Trails
Football/Soccer Fields
Picnic Shelters
Skating/Hockey Rinks
Tennis Courts
Volleyball Courts
In addition, support facilities are also eligible for funding provided at least one facility from the
above list is provided. Support facilities include drinking fountains, fencing, fire pits/grills,
landscaping, lighting, roadstparking, benches/seats, trash receptacles, restroom/shower/storage
buildings, signs, sledding hills, warming houses, utilities, and design/engineering costs (up to 10
percent).

IMPLEMENTATION
DNR Cooperative Trail Grant Program
The emphasis of this program is to promote trail access between people and desirable
destinations, not to develop significant new recreation facilities. Its primary purpose is to
complete trail connections or remove barriers to use between where people live (residential areas
within cities and communities) and significant public recreation facilities (parks and other trails).
Priority will be given to residential connections to state and regional facilities. A secondary
purpose is to link existing trail segments. The project must result in a trail linkage that is
immediately available for use by the general public. There must be demonstrated compatibility
of the uses provided by the project proposal with uses provided by the recreation facility.
Local/area support must be demonstrated. This program requires a fifty percent local funding
match of between $5,000 and $50,000. Costs must be incurred and paid for before
reimbursement can take place. Further information may be obtained from the Recreational
Services Section of the DNR in St. Paul.
II DNR National Recreation Trail Fund Program (ISTEA - Bicycle Transportation and the
Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991)
This program aims to increase the importance of bicycles and pedestrians as part of an
intermodal transportation system. It provides financial assistance for the development and
maintenance of recreational trails and trail -related projects. The following types of projects are
eligible for funding.
1. Construction of new trails on federal (with limitations), state, county, municipal or private
lands.
2. Development of urban trail linkages near homes and workplaces.
3. Maintenance of existing recreational trails, including snow grooming and maintenance.
4. Restoration of areas damaged by recreational trail use.
5. Development of trail -side and trail -head facilities (ie: drainage, crossings, stabilization,
parking, signage, controls, shelters, and utilities).
6. Provision of features that facilitate access and use of trails by persons with disabilities.
7. Land acquisition from willing sellers when consistent with the State Trail Plan.
8. Environmental awareness and safety education programs relating to the use of
recreational trails.

DNR Regional Trail Initiative Grant Program (ISTEA - Bicycle Transportation and the
Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991)
This program is intended to promote local development of trails and encourage utilization of
federal ISTEA Enhancement funds. No less than sixty percent of the funds would be directed to
regionally significant trails, no more than forty percent of the funds would be directed to trails
within/between communities. Priority would be given to ISTEA Enhancement projects. Eligible
projects include land acquisition and trail development, however, the acquisition of right-of-way
will only be eligible when it is proposed in conjunction with trail development. This program
requires a fifty percent local funding match of between $5,000 and $250,000. Costs must be
incurred and paid for before reimbursement can take place. Further information may be obtained
from the Recreational Services Section of the DNR in St. Paul.
Legislative Commission on Minnesota Resources
The LCMR program works toward enhancing and protecting Minnesota's natural resources. One
or more of the following strategies must be met in order to be considered for available funds. The
list is a partial list of strategies and represents the order of priority in which funds are given. A
complete list of project components, application requirements, and funding cycles can be
obtained from the State Offices.
Rehabilitate state and regional parks/trails.
2. Acquire and develop state and regional parks and trails.
3. Acquire, protect, and enhance critical habitat, native prairies, unique and/or sensitive
areas, scenic bluffs, aquatic resources, old -growth forests, and historic sites.
4. Expand rural and urban revegetation with native species, including community shade tree
programs. Implement native species tree planting for energy conservation, carbon dioxide
abatement, erosion control, wildlife habitat, and other benefits.
5. Research and demonstrate ecologically sound methods to control or eradicate exotic
species of plants or animals which are or may become a threat to the environment.
6. Accelerate the implementation of measures to reduce non -point source pollution.
7. Provide for all types of wetland purchase, restoration and easement acquisition to enhance
wildlife habitat, erosion control, water storage, flood control, and water quality.

8. Accelerate the use of farming practices consistent with wildlife habitat and environmental
and human health protection.
9. Create qualitative and quantitative benchmarks, including biological indicators, for key
natural resources to permit effective monitoring and assessment of environmental trends.
OPERATION & MAINTENANCE
One of the final levels of recreation planning addresses the operation and maintenance plan for
parks, trails, recreation and open space facilities. Part of the Implementation process is to
provide tools for the development of facilities and delivery of services necessary for the provision
of recreation experiences. These action plans include capital improvement programs, operations
manuals, personnel tracking plans, zoning, scheduling and maintenance standards. Albertville,
along with professionals in the field, must combine the art and science of park management in
order to balance park and open space resource values with the provision of needed recreation
facilities. The park and recreation standards which were utilized herein serve as one of the bench
marks against which the quality of life within a community can be measured.
COMMUNITY EDUCATION
An important aspect of park and trail development is user knowledge of the recreational facilities.
To promote the use of the community recreational system, the City should provide informational
material to residents as the facilities are implemented. A newsletter and map mailed to each
household or an article in a local newspaper are probably the best means by which to accomplish
this. At the same time, the City should work to establish a list of rules and encourage community
awareness of such.
PUBLIC PARTICIPATION
The development or improvement of parks and trails in the City is an excellent way to energize
and direct the resources and talents of community volunteers, who are becoming more important
in the delivery of quality leisure services. This approach can result in higher quality recreation
opportunities at a more reasonable cost to the taxpayer. Under this scenario, it is essential that
the City organize projects and cooperate with the volunteers of non-profit, private, industrial,
commercial, or religious groups in the planning, financing, maintenance, and scheduling of
projects.

IDENTIFICATION & SIGNAGE
A clear and concise system of park and trail signage is beneficial in any recreational system to
assist users in finding and using the facilities. Many times signage is also beneficial when
installed to identify future park or trail improvements as a means of informing prospective owners
of adjacent/nearby property and for general public knowledge to let citizens know of work in
progress. Most commonly associated with existing facilities, directional graphics may be in the
form of painted pavement symbols/lettering or any variety of regulatory, warning, or guidance
signage. Signage should include general identification of an area, layout and types of facilities
present, directions for specific points of interest such as handicapped areas, restrooms, or
connections to destinations, trail distances, and user/safety rules. The best location for much of
this information is near the entrances to parks/trail segments or near parking areas. The signage
should be consistent throughout the City and should be easily understandable and maintainable.
The U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration has outlined size,
shape, and color criteria for signs in -the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).

SURVEY RESULTS
A total of 678 surveys were mailed and 109 of them were returned. This is a sixteen percent
sample of the Albertville population. For reference, a fifteen percent return rate is considered
good. Generally speaking, respondents were thorough and answered each question as
instructed. Questions which had inappropriate responses or were incomplete could not be
counted, so in fact the total number of respondents falls below 109 in some areas.
Question One asked residents which of the park facilities located in Albertville they have used
within the last year. The most used park facilities were playgrounds and picnic areas with 69%
and 40% of the respondents using each, respectively, followed by softball/baseball fields at 32%
and tennis courts at 309/6. The volleyball court (15%) and exercise area (8%) were used the least
by respondents. Write-in comments which specify other facilities used by respondents included
the warming house/ice rink, the walking path in Four Season's Park and the high school track.

Question Two asked residents if they were satisfied with park facilities in the City. The majority
(70%) of respondents were very satisfied with (c) the location/proximity of park facilities to their
homes. In all other categories, the majority of residents were somewhat satisfied with the City's
park facilities, although many people (28%) were very satisfied with all aspects of the City's park
facilities. Respondents were least satisfied with (d) the size/design and (e)
maintenance/condition of facilities and equipment, with 14% stating so in each category.
The second part of Question Two asked respondents to identify any aspects of the park system
which they feel are inadequate at the present time. Comments included (in no particular order)
the number of ball fields, lack of all types of trails, lack of swimming area, poor park maintenance,
playground equipment in Lion's Park, lack of grass area in Westwind Park, basketball nets/rims
are damaged or missing, lack of/poor condition of tennis courts, hockey and in -line skating area,

Question Four asked the location most often used for trail related activities. Categories (a)
through (c), walking/ jogging (830/6), bicycling (80%), and skating (81 %) were all performed most
often on local streets by respondents. Very few (less than 10%) of respondents utilize trails or
sidewalks, most likely due to their limited existence in Albertville. Snowmobiles most often used
established trails for travel. Fifty-three (53%) percent of respondents use undeveloped and
natural areas for hiking and nature walks. Several people stated that they must leave town
and/or utilize regional park areas for hiking purposes.

Question Nine asked residents if they would support a plan to expand and improve City/Lion's
Park to be used as the City's community -wide recreational facility. The majority (49%) of
respondents said 'yes', while 25% said 'no' and 26% said `maybe'. Those who stated they might

Question Eleven asked residents to list their most desired recreational elements and those which
they definitely do not want. The two top answers for desired facilities were trails (38%) and a
swimming pool (37%). Seventeen percent (17%) of respondents wanted improved hockeyfice
skating facilities; 7% were in favor of a golf course, and 6% wanted more ballfields. Other
responses for desired facilities included: open space; beach/lake swimming; picnic shelter/tables;
improved tennis courts; playgrounds; a community center similar to Becker with basketball,
volleyball, batting cages, running track, gym; snow sledding; horseback riding; canoeing; fishing;
and a place for skateboarders to use.

they definitely do not want. There were no answers to this question which stood out to a large
extent over others. The most popular answer was snowmobile trails, but this included only 5%
of respondents. Hockey rink and ballfields were tied for the next most unwanted facility (4.5%),
followed by swimming pool (4%), and golf (3.5%). Other answers included: dirt racing track,
horseback riding, gym/health club, tennis courts, volleyball, basketball court, volleyball, motor

Question Twelve asked residents to what areas of the City they would like to see trails expanded
by numbering them in order of priority. Residential neighborhoods were most often the first
choice of respondents (31%), followed by second choice (24%) and fourth choice (15%) in the
list of priorities. City parks and facilities were also high on the priority list for respondents whose
responses were third choice (29%), second choice (28%), and first choice (25%). Regional park
and trail connections were most often the third choice (26%) of respondents, followed by second
choice (18%) and a tie for fourth/fifth choice (14%). Schools were viewed as important
connections to respondents who listed this as their first choice (27%), fourth (21 %) and third
(17%) choices.
Commercial/industrial areas were not a high priority for respondents who most often listed this
.item as last (58%), or second to last (14%). Neighboring communities were also not viewed as
a critical connection and were most often listed as sixth (34%) on the priority list, followed by fifth
(24%), and fourth (14%). Lakes also did not take precedent over other locations and were most
often listed as fourth (22%), fifth (200/6), or sixth (26%) in order of priority. In summary, residential
neighborhoods, city parks/facilities, schools, and regional parks/trails were the most desired
locations to which to expand trails.

Question Seventeen asked residents if they would purchase a lot in the City on which they were
going to build a home if were located adjacent to a park or had a trail located adjacent to the
property. The majority of respondents (63%) said they would buy a lot that was located adjacent
to a park. The majority of respondents also stated that they would buy a lot that had a trail
adjacent to it, however, they felt most comfortable with a trail in the front like a sidewalk (64%)
versus a trail adjacent to the side yard (52%) or rear yard (58%). The majority (61 %) of
respondents were concerned about a possible lack of privacy, too much traffic flow, loitering/kids
hangout, ease of accessibility to yard or house/night time intruders, vandalism, noise, or
littering/animal debris. In these instances, the majority of respondents felt that a natural
vegetative screen or greater amounts of space/setback to the public park or trail would be the
best solution. Others felt that a fence would do the job or that such public areas should only be
established in new subdivisions or that collector streets should be installed wide enough to
accommodate trails. Another recommendation was made to check into what the City of Maple
Grove does (close trails after dark) and keep trails visible for safety reasons.

Question t'T (Concerns):
1 Future gang hangout, drugs
2 Traffic, privacy
3 Kids are often up to no good today, too close
5 lids at night
7 I would love to be next to any of these facilities, except for park in rear yard (this would
make me feel like people were on my property).
8 Lack of privacy
10 Too much traffic close to the house.
15 Noise
16 Concerned about residents privacy and- also pets and small children
26 Too many people
28 Just wouldn't want to be right on top of a park area; a bit away is better
29 Noise, vandalism, kids
30 Wouldn't live next to trails, but maybe a park
34 Don't want people hanging around my yard
35 Too much traffic
36 Damage from visitors
37 Litter and animal debris
40 Loud families; trail- in rear yard would be OK if far enough back

57
Some people wouldn't like trails so close to their homes, but I don't like trails by any
streets.
66
Too many kids hanging out (TROUBLE-, vandalism) late at night.
68
Lack of privacy, vandalism, legal responsibility if accidents occur
70
Too loud, liability if kids in your yard, too much traffic

101
104
I wouldn't want unknown people going through my yard.
Privacy
107
People are so rude these days, things would be thrown in my yard and pets would go on

108
Privacy issue
Question t7 (Solutions):
2
Ftigh fence and setback

APPENDIX A -COMMUNITY RECREATION SURVEY &RESULTS
16 Large centralized facility is preferable over smaller facilities, but only if it is about 3 miles
from the furthest resident. I prefer a parallel system of trails where bikes and walkers are
separated, but in proximity to one another.
19 Taxes are not low like they used to be.
22 We would love new facilities but we can't afford the taxes as it is.
29 Affordable housing
37 Try not to use local streets for trails, keep them on main roads.
39 Overall, I feel our City and parks are adequate and quite functional.
40 We need trails, not little playgrounds. I won't pay anything for little playgrounds that aren't
kept up.
46 No more parks unless the existing ones are improved first. Trails should be provided as
cheaply as possible between neighborhoods and parks.
50 We don't need new parks, just need to change and update existing ones. Why does it take
so much longer for Albertville to establish amenities? Maybe if we were a community open
to progress, such as letting new businesses and industries into the area without making
it difficult (its obvious they're not wanted), we would be able to afford more fro our
community and schools. Businesses bring tax money - wake up!
73 Easy access to 1-94, large yard.
96 I'm not interested in seeing my property taxes increase so we duplicate what is readily
available in nearby communities (ie: swimming pool), but maybe some enhancements to
current facilities would be okay.
101 1 would not buy another home in Albertville, taxes are too high for what we receive
104 It is important to develop a park area around the lakes somewhere. The center of the city
(highlighted area shown on Marx property) could be developed into a park area which
would connect the area west of CSAH 19 to the Main Street, downtown, primary school
area, expand Lion's Park to provide additional ball park, provide trails and GREEN
SPACE. This is important for mental and physical being of the people. The Psyk property
was shown as an area where connection should be made to high school for walking and
recreation.

(a) Combination of land/cash also possible where such dedications are required
(1) Maple Grove has over 70 miles of paved trails and many are located along the
side or rear lot lines of residential parcels. They require a 30 to 100 foot
corridor within which an 8-10 foot trail is constructed according to the Plan.
The dedicated land is part of the required 10% land area. In addition to this
requirement, 5 foot sidewalks are required on both sides of the street in all
new subdivisions. They have not had any problems with resident complaints.
(2) Monticello requires cash dedications in an amount equal to 10% of the raw
land. Monticello requires trails to be installed by developers as shown on
their Plan. The Policy requires a trail on one or both sides of the street
(depending upon the situation) along all roads which exceed 500-700 vehicle
trips per day. Monticello has an established commercial and industrial
dedication amount (10%), but it has never been used.
(3) Plymouth has over 75 miles of paved trails, with many located in rear and side
yard areas of residential lots. A minimum corridor size of 30 feet is required
to be dedicated land, so as not to lessen the required setback from property
lines (an easement would allow the trail to be located closer to the home).
The required trail width Is 8 feet. They have had very few complaints, but
recommend getting the trails installed before homes are built,
However, in commercial and industrial areas the opposite method of trail
establishment is used: easements are required to allow the owner to maximize
r` use of his land. The cash dedication amount is $4,200/acre in commercial
and industrial areas.

(a) Combination of lanckash also possible where such dedications are required
■ (1) Maple Grove has over 70 miles of paved trails and many are located along the
side or rear lot lines of residential parcels. They require a 30 to 100 foot
corridor within which an 8-10 foot trail is constructed according to the Plan.
The dedicated land is part of the required 10% land area. In addition to this
requirement, 5 foot sidewalks are required on both sides of the street in all
new subdivisions. They have not had any problems with resident complaints.
(2) Monticello requires cash dedications in an amount equal to 10% of the raw
land. Monticello requires trails to be installed by developers as shown on
their Plan. The Policy requires a trail on one or both sides of the street
(depending upon the situation) along all roads which exceed 500-700 vehicle
trips per day. Monticello has an established commercial and industrial
dedication amount (10%), but it has never been used.
(3) Plymouth has over 75 miles of paved trails, with many located in rear and side
yard areas of residential lots. A minimum corridor size of 30 feet is required
to be dedicated land, so as not to lessen the required setback from property
lines (an easement would allow the trail to be located closer to the home).
The required trail width is 8 feet. They have had very few complaints, but
recommend getting the trails installed before homes are built.
However, in commercial and industrial areas the opposite method of trail
establishment is used: easements are required to allow the owner to maximize
use of his land. The cash dedication amount is $4,200/acre in commercial
and industrial areas.
