This includes a new regional trail section through Plymouth. Three Rivers Park District has approached the City to be an active member of the planning team. Planning in is the early stages and Three Rivers Park District desires the City to participate and provide guidance on the identification and evaluation of potential routes. The exact location of the trail corridor is to be determined through the work with local communities and Hennepin County. Attached you will find a summary from Three Rivers Park District. There was an initial meeting held with Three Rivers Park District staff and with City of Plymouth staff (Planning, Engineering and Parks & Recreation). It was decided going forward that Sonya Rippe, Project Coordinator in Parks & Recreation will be the lead staff person for the City. She will keep staff and City officials informed on the corridor study. Page 9 November 1, 2017 Project Summary Regional Trail Route Evaluation: French Regional Park to Bryant Regional Park Background: Three Rivers’ Regional Trail System Plan includes a new north-south regional trail spanning almost the entire length of Hennepin County and connecting several regional park and trail assets. This study focuses on the segment of the corridor between French Regional Park in Plymouth and Bryant Lake Regional Park in Eden Prairie with connections to the Luce Line, Dakota Rail, Lake Minnetonka and Minnesota River Bluffs Regional Trails. The exact location of the future regional trail is not yet known, as such Three Rivers is working with local communities, including Plymouth, and Hennepin County to identify and evaluate potential routes. The desired outcome of this study is identification of one preferred regional trail route which is publicly and politically supported, feasible, financial responsible, and is safe and comfortable for all users regardless of skill, age, ability, and activity. The study includes a technical feasibility and cost analysis for each identified route and opportunities for community members to review and provide feedback on the potential routes. The study team will craft the public and political engagement process to meet the needs and expectations of the local communities. This study is the first step in a long-term implementation process which will require completion of a master plan, a cooperative regional trail agreement with partners and future funding. As a component of the regional trail system, Three Rivers will be the primary party to plan, fund, design, construct, operate and maintain the future regional trail. City Role: -Participate on the study team (attend meetings, identify potential routes, provide existing technical data (i.e. road right-of-way width, as-builts, and similar) and represent Plymouth’s interests throughout the study. -Help craft and implement the public and political engagement and approval processes. -Review and approve the preferred route at the completion of the planning process.

The improvements are now complete and in time for the regular hockey season and to host two national tournaments. The first tournament, the USA Hockey Sled Classic, comes to PIC Nov. 16-19. The annual tournament is presented by the National Hockey League and showcases 28 NHL-affiliated sled hockey teams. City of Plymouth officials will participate in a ceremonial puck drop to kick off the tournament prior to the first game at about 4:45 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 16. For more information and a tournament schedule, visit usahockey.com/2017sledclassic. PIC will also host the USA Hockey National High School Tournament – featuring the best high school hockey teams from across the country – March 22-26, 2018. Both tournaments promise to be a boon to the local economy as tournament-goers are expected to spend significant dollars on lodging, food, transportation, supplies, gear and entertainment. Upgrades at PIC This year’s upgrades to PIC included reconfiguring PIC’s main rink from Olympic to professional size, which is expected to increase rink rental demand and allow more organizations to utilize PIC. The center’s refrigeration system was also transformed by replacing an outdated R22 Freon system with an ammonia-based coolant. The new system significantly reduces environmental risk and boosts energy efficiency. The floor of the main rink, which was formerly sand, has been rebuilt as concrete to remedy uneven cooling issues. Combined, the refrigeration and floor upgrades are expected to save roughly 30 percent in energy costs. -MORE- Page 12 The upgrades totaled an investment of roughly $2.2 million. As an enterprise fund for the city, the improvements are designed to keep the facility competitive and generating revenue to cover operating expenses. Along with $150,000 from the Wayzata Youth Hockey Association and a $100,000 James Metzen Mighty Ducks Ice Arena Grant from the state, the improvements are projected to achieve project cost payback within a decade. Drawing more than 500,000 visitors a year, PIC is one of the busiest ice arenas in Minnesota. PIC serves as home ice for Wayzata boys and girls hockey programs, and Providence Academy high school hockey. PIC is also home to the Wayzata Youth Hockey Association – the second-largest youth hockey association in the nation. Photo Cutline: The Plymouth Ice Center will host two national hockey tournaments in the coming months. Recent upgrades at PIC included converting the main rink from Olympic-size with a sand floor to professional-size with a concrete floor. -30- Page 13 NATIONAL 455880623 St. Cloud, Bloomington vote to raise tobacco age Associated Press NOVEMBER 7, 2017 — 11:45AM ST. CLOUD, Minn. — St. Cloud's mayor says he'll block the City Council's vote to raise the tobacco- buying age from 18 to 21. Mayor Dave Kleis says he won't sign off on the resolution passed Monday night by the council on a 4-3 vote. The council would need five of its seven members to vote to overturn the mayor's action. Meanwhile, the City Council in Bloomington voted to increase the age to 21 on an unanimous vote Monday night. Edina and St. Louis Park were among the first Minnesota cities to raise the age to 21.
