The location of the proposed improvements is illustrated on the attached map. The Parks and Recreation Department is planning to fund the improvements using a combination of different sources, including $30,000 from a 2007 Supplemental Environmental Project (SEP) grant from the MPCA, $25,000 from the MPCA for the mercury incident, with the remainder covered by the park improvement fund.
