RAMSEY COUNCIL ACTION: "Future development of Rivers Bend Park prevented"

The headline quote is ABC Newspapers' headline of its thorough report, online here. The only thing helpful that is absent from that report is pinpointing the location under consideration; with the below google maps screen capture presented to add that context. Otherwise, read Eric Hagen's ABC report. Click the image to enlarge and read.



It is at the Hwy 116 overpass on the Rum with the park on Ramsey's west side of the Rum, and Anoka's housing growth development on the east side. It is threatened with growth creep, and the effort to prevent that in a more permanent way than zoning would entail is the aim of the present council and Ramsey staff; as Hagen reported.
