SECTION 1
SITE BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
BACKGROUND AND LOCATION
Prior Lake’s Spring Lake Park is a 41 acre undeveloped park parcel
located in the southwest area of the City. The park, comprised of
two parcels, was originally acquired with the intention of developing
a community park with athletic fi elds. With the completion of the
2040 Prior Lake Park and Trail System Plan, the southern portion
of the park has been re-evaluated as a highly ranked site for
development of pickleball courts.
2040 Prior Lake Park and Trail System Plan
The Park and Trail System planning process (currently in the review
and approval process), began in August of 2019 and included
outreach through use of interactive online engagement maps, pop-
up engagement events, public meetings, a steering committee,
stakeholder interviews, and social media and press.
The development of the southwest 8 acre portion of Spring Lake
Park with a pickleball complex is listed as a top priority item in the
system plan.
The remaining 33 acres of City owned land north of Howard Lake
Road was not part of this feasibility report.
2012 Scott County Spring Lake Regional Park Improvements
In 2012 Scott County constructed an off -leash dog park and trail
head improvement project, a portion of which is on the southern
portion of the park. The County and the City of Prior Lake developed
a shared use agreement for the portion of improvements that
occurred on the City land. This agreement allowed for full City use
of the facilities with the County responsible for the operations and
maintenance of the 2012 constructed features.

Neighborhood Park - the basic unit of the park system,
serving as the recreational and social focus of the
neighborhood with informal active and passive recreation
Community Park - broader purpose than neighborhood
parks, meeting community-based recreational needs,
as well as preserving unique landscapes and open spaces
Natural Resource Area - set aside for preservation of
significant natural resources, remnant landscapes, open
space and visual aesthetics/buffering
County/Regional Park - an area containing natural
resources sufficient to provide an array of outdoor recreation
opportunities, large enough to buffer recreation activities from
adjacent land uses and serving more users than township
and city parks

SITE CHARACTERISTICS
Vegetation and Topography
The parcel was historically pasture land. Today there exists a
mature stand of oak trees on the east side near Howard Lake Road
and a tree windrow on the western boundary. A wetland exists at
the very north end of the parcel, with the remaining land consisting
of rolling topography and small volunteer trees and herbaceous
plant cover.

EXISTING SITE FACILITIES AND AMENITIES
Gravel Parking Lots
A 25 stall gravel parking lot with 2 paved ADA stalls exists for the
dog park on the City park land. The County also constructed a 20
stall gravel parking lot across Howard Lake Road on City park land
to function as trail head parking.
Vault Rest Rooms , Water and Picnic Tables
A 2 stall vault restroom facility with nearby drinking fountain for
people and a dog wash was installed using well water as a water
source. Picnic tables are also present in this area.
Adjacent Off-leash Dog Park
There is a expansive dog park facility bordering the south edge
of the park. The dog park is within the Spring Lake Regional Park
property but access and parking is in the City park. This is presently
a pay for use dog park with a self service pay station for daily use (a
yearly licence is also available).
Trails
An extensive trail system connects to the southern edge of the Park
and connects throughout the adjacent Regional Park. An additional
trail link to Stemmer Ridge Lane was constructed in 2019 by the
Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community (SMSC ).
Other Facilities
As part of the 2012 Regional Park improvements the following
where also added ;
» Lighting along Howard Lake Road entry drive.
» Lighting in the dog park and trail head parking lot.
» A vehicular gate on Howard Lake Road (formally Co Rd 81)
presently closed from 10pm - 5am on a set timer.

DEVELOPMENT OF PREFERRED CONCEPT PLAN
The 2040 System Plan identifi es the community’s desire to build a 8
court pickleball complex suitable for tournaments.
Strategies for achieving this objective include developing a concept
that meets the following goals:
» Locate 8 courts together for optimum tournament play.
» Provide suffi cient parking and access.
» Consider shared uses with Scott County facilities.
» Plan for future park amenities such as:, picnic/shade shelters, rest
rooms, playgrounds, etc. to enhance the player and spectator
experience and accommodate future park system user needs.
CONCEPT PLAN CONSIDERATIONS
This study purpose is to test the feasibility of developing an 8 court
pickleball court complex and associated needed parking as phase
one. The study also explored how the parcel could develop in the
future to include additional park uses and associated parking.
Best court orientation, preserving existing mature trees, site access,
shared uses with County facilities are considerations in the proposed
plan concept.

Proposed Plan showing Phase One and Future Park Facility Options
CONCEPT PLAN - PHASE 1 AND FUTURE OPTIONS
PROPOSED PARK FEATURES - PHASE 1
Courts
The 8 pickleball courts are located near the existing facilities to
take advantage of the shared facilities of parking, restrooms
and water. The courts will be regulation size with fencing to
contain balls and a north south orientation. Optional seating
and shade area will be added as budget allows.
Trails
Connecting trails from the courts to the expanded parking lot
and to the existing regional trail will make the park and court
facility ADA accessible and allow users access to the park by
walking and biking.
Storm Water Accommodations
Accommodations for stormwater run off will be designed in
more detail with soil boring information. There is an allowance
in phase 1 costs for a native planting detention basin.
Area Lighting
There exists two tall area lights at todays parking lot which will
provide some level of lighting. Additional parking lot lighting will
be considered as budget allows. There are no plans to light the
pickleball courts.
Buffers
An existing tree line (windrow) exists along the western boundary of
the park. This tree line will benefi t as both a buff er to Stemmer Ridge
Lane and westerly setting sun and winds into the courts.
Large boulders are presently aligned along the parking lot. These
would be re-located and re-used in the expanded parking design.
Parking Accommodations
A total of 25 parking stalls exist today next to the dog park with
an additional 20 trail head stalls to the east at the trail head.
The plan proposes to add an additional 50 stalls to the dog park
lot for a total of 75 shared parking stalls at that location.
This would allow for approximately 19 extra parking stalls for
dog park users during peak pickleball tournament demand.
Current demand for parking at the existing dog park lot and
trail head lot is low, based on input from County staff.
