University of Minnesota UMore Park
The University of Minnesota Outreach, Research and Education (UMore) Park is the University’s 5,000-acre property located 25 miles southeast of the Twin Cities in Dakota County.
A key element of the University of Minnesota’s UMore Park project is creating a sustainable community. The vision for UMore Park is for a sustainable, modern, University-founded community of 20,000 to 30,000 people developed over 25 to 30 years.
The University is working with BioRegional to come up with a sustainability plan for the 5,000-acre development. By using the One Planet Living framework, the result will be an efficient, well-planned built environment with lifestyle alternatives to achieve sustainable use of the resources on our planet.
