LINO LAKES: Residents raise concerns about meeting location. PAGE 2
Lino Lakes considers community concept BY SHANNON GRANHOLM MANAGING EDITOR
LINO LAKES — The City Council plans to take a trip to Corcoran, Minnesota, in the next few weeks. Perhaps then the council can get a feel as to whether a Del Webb community might be the right fit for Lino Lakes. Pulte Homes is considering the city for its third Del Webb “Active Adult Community” in the state. The developer is looking at the 237-acre site located in the northwest corner of the city, the sod farms north of Main Street. “The goal is to introduce you to the concept of a Del Webb community, which is a little different than what we typically see in the Twin Cities area,” said Paul Heuer, director of land planning and entitlement with Pulte Homes.

City planning to oversize treatment plant BY SHANNON GRANHOLM MANAGING EDITOR
LINO LAKES — Making some changes now to the design of the new water treatment plant may eliminate the need for a second water treatment plant many years down the road. The Lino Lakes City Council authorized the preparation of plans and specification for the water treatment plant in August 2022. The feasibility study recommended a conventional gravity filtration system modified to provide for biological filtration with an initial treatment capacity of approximately 6,000 gpm (gallons per minute).
