Subject: Vermillion River Corridor Park Maintenance
In an attempt to reduce our overall mowing program and to improve water quality along the Vermillion River, I
have been working with Dakota County and the Friends of the Mississippi River to transform the North side of
st
the Vermillion River Corridor park from Highway 61 west to 31 Street from a highly manicured mowed area
into a natural prairie with access points.
I am seeking input from the PRC on whether or not staff should continue with this possible concept.
Thank you!
