Arbor Trails, a new housing development, is off to a springtime start in Sartell after a long delay.
The project was approved by the city council last year, but it was too late to start the project because the water-and-sewer lines and roads had to be put in first.
Developer Rick Poplinksi of “RST Land” is excited about the project, a 63 single-family-unit development located along County Road 4 in southwest Sartell. It’s on land just west of what was the Lodermeier Gardens greenhouse.
“I’ve done a lot of developments in Sartell in the past 20 years, but this is the nicest one yet,” he said during an interview with the Sartell Newsleader. “These are upper-end lots with one-half acre each.”
The neighborhood will have walking trails, ponding systems and scenic views.
Poplinski said ground has been broken, and the construction of homes will begin this week or next.
