Press Release – Pauly Park

Press Release

The City of Jordan is pleased to announce it has been selected to receive a $350,000 grant from the Minnesota DNR through the Outdoor Recreation Grant Program for a new City park!

The City’s planned Pauly Park is located in the Bluffs at Cedar Ridge and Heritage Hills neighborhoods, south of TH 282 and west of Lydia Road. The grant funding will be used to construct a 3.5-acre park with amenities including an inclusive, ADA accessible playground, pickleball courts, half basketball court, and accessible trails all adjacent to two neighborhoods that have long been without any nearby park. Pauly Park’s playground will be the first of its kind in the City, with inclusive play features such as wheelchair accessible equipment and rubber safety surfacing. The accessible equipment will allow children with disabilities to play alongside their peers, and reap the same physical, social, cognitive, and psychological benefits from playing outdoors. Alongside the new playground will be the City’s first pickleball courts. Initial land development grading work will occur on-site this fall with construction of the new park facilities occurring in summer 2024.

The City of Jordan is grateful for the opportunity to partner with the DNR and is thrilled to be able to provide such an innovative and highly sought after amenity for Jordan residents. The grant program aims to increase and enhance outdoor recreation facilities in local and community parks throughout the state. With the construction of Pauly Park, both the City of Jordan and Minnesota DNR will achieve these goals.

AVISO PÚBLICO y OPORTUNIDAD PARA COMENTARIOS

El Condado de Scott y el Departamento de Transporte de Minnesota (MnDOT), en cooperación con la ciudad de Jordan, proponen mejoras en la intersección de Trunk Highway (TH) 169, TH 282 y County Highway (CH 9) en la ciudad de Jordan. El proyecto convertirá la intersección señalizada existente en TH 169/TH 282/CH 9 en un intercambio separado por niveles. Se construirá una rotonda en el lado oeste del nuevo paso elevado y se construirá una intersección señalizada en el lado este. Se construirá una rampa de entrada a la TH 169 en dirección sur y una rampa de salida a la TH 169 en dirección norte. Se construirá una salida de gancho de medio botón para TH 169 en dirección sur y se proporcionará acceso a TH 169 en dirección norte a través de Creek Ln. El proyecto también rehabilitará y ampliará el puente TH 169 sobre Sand Creek (Puente 6802) y rehabilitará el puente Syndicate St sobre Sand Creek (Br. 70509). Se construirá un nuevo puente en CH 9 sobre Union Pacific Railroad. Se agregará un nuevo paso subterráneo para peatones junto a Sand Creek para proporcionar un cruce de segundo grado separado de TH 169 para personas que caminan y andan en bicicleta. Se proporcionarán aceras nuevas y/o reconstruidas en toda el área del proyecto. Se construirá una nueva laguna de aguas pluviales y se reemplazarán o mejorarán varias alcantarillas.
De acuerdo con 23 CFR 774.5, MnDOT y el condado de Scott solicitan comentarios sobre los efectos que este proyecto tendría en Riesgraf Lions Park. Se construirá un nuevo sendero a través de Riesgraf Lions Park para conectar el nuevo paso subterráneo para peatones con Creek Ln. Aproximadamente 0.55 acres del parque se verán afectados durante la construcción. MnDOT está buscando una servidumbre temporal para esta área para construir el sendero. La ciudad de Jordan seguirá siendo propietaria y mantendrá el parque después de la construcción.
La Administración Federal de Carreteras (FHWA) ha hecho una determinación preliminar de que la acción propuesta en Riesgraf Lions Park es una acción de minimis de la Sección 4(f) de acuerdo con 23 CFR 774.5, condicionada a la revisión y comentarios del público. Se puede hacer una determinación de minimis cuando los usos de la tierra de la Sección 4(f) no tendrán un efecto adverso sobre los recursos protegidos.
