The recommendation supports handling the development’s parkland obligation through a cash payment rather than receiving land. Commissioners also reviewed a long-range multi-use trail plan connecting Lake Elmo with Oakdale, Maplewood, and St. Paul. A third Ridge Park concept would expand parking and add a picnic shelter, flex lawn, nature space, disc golf, and trails, but no recommendation was made; a nearby resident raised concerns about increased traffic.
