Lindstrom Council supports bringing trail up Olinda Tr.
Rep. Dettmer’s bill also seeks to authorize the sale of bonds (to appropriate $500,000 to the commissioner of Natural Resources), and a portion would go for pre-design to continue the Gateway Trail out of William O’Brien State Park to downtown Scandia.
Dettmer told the Press this part of the bill was directed to the Capital Investment Committee as a funding request. He hopes the whole thing comes together in the end but there are no guarantees. He added, “As author I will be promoting the request for Scandia, along with city officials.”
Lindstrom city council members expressed enthusiasm for having Gateway continue north along Olinda Trail. The Gateway Trail is shown on the county’s comprehensive park plan as connecting with the Swedish Immigrant Trail, and Lindstrom would become a crossroads in the regional bike trail world.
