Commission discusses possible 120-acre addition to Maple Ridge Park Preserve

Isanti County Parks & Recreation Commission · April 28, 2026

Summary

The Parks Director said an adjacent landowners family contacted the department about a possible 120-acre addition to Maple Ridge Park Preserve; a meeting with the family, the director, Carol Urness and the Historical Society executive director was scheduled to discuss options.

Commissioners discussed a potential expansion of Maple Ridge Park Preserve after the Parks Director reported that an adjacent landowners family approached the department about offering roughly 120 acres for addition to the preserve.

Director Barry Wendorf said the county has set a meeting with the landowners family, the director, Carol Urness and the Historical Society executive director to explore options for acquisition or donation. The minutes list Carol Urness among those to participate in the meeting, but she had been recorded earlier in the attendance line as absent from the April 28 session.

No formal action was taken at the April 28 meeting; the report indicates the meeting will be used to gather more information and discuss next steps with stakeholders.
