3. Heartland Trail Discussion
Metro COG is proposing to implement the Heartland Trail through Clay County. This trail is currently a 49-mile paved path connecting Park Rapids, MN to Cass Lake, MN. The Clay County Board of Commissioners will discuss and decide if they want to designate the trail as a state or regional trail. Dan Farnsworth from Metro COG will present findings and explain the differences between these designations. This discussion is planned for June 9, 2026. If approved as a regional trail, the project could involve environmental review, right-of-way acquisition, trail design, and landowner discussions, followed by construction. If designated a state trail, the state may handle funding and maintenance. Contractors specializing in site preparation, grading, paving, utility work, and landscaping may find opportunities as the project progresses through planning and potential construction phases. Early engagement with project planners could provide an advantage before final plans and permits are established.

This document details a work group session of the Clay County Board of Commissioners on June 9, 2026. Key discussions included legislative planning for a Non-Secure/Psychiatric Residential Treatment Facility (PRTF) and seeking funding through state departments and campaigns. The Board also discussed enhancing funding efforts for the West Central Regional Water District (WCRWD) due to drinking water issues in rural Clay County. A significant portion of the meeting focused on the Heartland Trail project, debating its designation as a state or regional trail, with commissioners expressing concerns about potential financial burdens and maintenance costs associated with a regional designation. The Board also received a presentation on solar development and permitting in Clay County, specifically discussing the Buffalo Ridge Solar project (930 MW, 5,800 acres of easements) proposed by Doral LLC, which is expected to be submitted to the PUC in November/December. The discussion highlighted the county's role in influencing PUC decisions through comments and evidence, particularly regarding road use, drainage, and emergency response. Finally, the Board began budget planning for 2027, discussing potential levy increases, cost-of-living adjustments, and the need to potentially cut services or funding to non-county entities.
