Vision of the Parks, Trails and Open Space System The vision for Lakeville’s Parks, Trails and Open Space Plan began with the first parks and open space study in 1970. Through the City’s foresight, dedication to planning and commitment to park land development and environmental protection, the City has been successful in establishing a superior municipal park and trail system. A 2005 community survey identifies that over 90 percent of those surveyed believe the elements of the park system to be “excellent” or “good”. The following map provides a vision of the City’s 2020 park, trails and open space plan. This graphic plan, in conjunction with the policy plan, system recommendations, and the individual park recommendations to be developed as an appendix of the Parks, Trails and Open Space Plan are intended to establish the framework for decision-making on future system improvements. The following table provides estimates of future park land needed to implement the long range park system. These acreage estimates below correspond to the acreage figures included with search areas identified on the planning district maps in previous sections of this Chapter.

Community Parks The community park search areas include a new community park expansion of existing community parks as follows: Ritter Farm (20 acres); Casperson/West Lake Marion (45 acres); Antlers Park (6 acres). The total future land area for community parks is estimated to be approximately 141+ acres. City of Lakeville, Minnesota Chapter Six 2006 Comprehensive Parks, Trails, & Open Space Plan Page 171
Community Playfields The park plan illustrates three search areas for community playfields. The creation of new playfields would be pursued only if existing facilities could not be expanded to accommodate future demands. The community playfields include the following land area estimates: New South Creek facility (30 acres) and new facility in east/central Lakeville (60 acres).
