 Review and provide feedback on the draft master plan for Dakota County’s new regional park. The new 456-acre regional park—the latest addition to the Dakota County Parks system—is located in Empire Township, next to the 2,840-acre Vermillion Highlands modified Wildlife Management Area.
Comments on the plan will be accepted until Thursday, Jan. 12. An open house will be held 5:30–8 p.m., Thursday, Jan. 5 at the Dakota County Western Service Center, 14955 Galaxie Ave., Apple Valley It will include a presentation and time for questions.
This master plan establishes the park vision; identifies development, restoration, interagency collaboration and operational needs; and develops a cost estimate and phasing approach for park improvements. The regional park plan includes a visitor center/trailhead, trails, picnicking, event and nature/water play areas, unique camping cabins, off-leash dog area, disc golf, and a variety of gardens. The plan also addresses park management, budget and more.
The plan is available for review at all Dakota County library branches, the Lebanon Hills Visitor Center and online.
