PRIVATE DEVELOPMENTS
Bassett Creek Regional Trail
An open house for the proposed Bassett Creek Regional Trail project was held on Tuesday evening at
Crystal City Hall. The open house mostly focused on the segment of trail that will be constructed
through the cities of New Hope and Crystal. The Three Rivers Park District is currently applying for
federal funding for the construction of that trail segment. Golden Valley staff was in attendance at the
open house.
Ultimately, the Three Rivers Park District envisions the trail to connect French Regional Park to Theodore
Wirth Park via Golden Valley. However, the Golden Valley trail segment would be the final phase of the
project. For more information about planning for the Bassett Creek Regional Trail, please visit

Bottineau Transitway
Hennepin County hosted an open house for the proposed Bottineau Transitway on Tuesday evening at
the Courage Center. Golden Valley staff attended this open house to gather information and speak with
residents. The several residents who did attend raised concern over access to a possible transit station
at Golden Valley Road.
The County is still in the preliminary planning phase for the Bottineau Transitway, and has yet to select a
preferred alignment. Environmental data and public input gathered over the next year will help to
determine what alignment is selected. The County plans to hold a workshop for Golden Valley residents
in the fall. Up-to-date information about this project will continue to be posted on the City’s website and
at www.bottineautransitway.org.
The Three.Nine.Four Development
Attached is the latest rendering for the proposed Three.Nine.Four development at the intersection of
Highway 100 and Interstate 394. If constructed, the development would have a 149-unit senior housing
building and a 212-unit market rate apartment building. The developer is still in negotiations with the
Housing and Redevelopment Authority to receive official endorsement for this project. If endorsed, the
developer hopes to begin the planning approval process later this summer.
