Based on a review of planned trail segments included in the current Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), staff has recommended the application focus on the Hwy 6 Trail section from Fairmeadows Boulevard to Heinz Road. Background / Analysis: The current CIP includes a planned Hwy 6 Trail project (#R4227), which includes construction of the trail from Sycamore Street to Heinz Road. Anticipated funding for the Project includes anticipated grant funding. However, the total statewide appropriation for SRT funding this year is $1,000,000. Based on that amount, and the competitive award process, City staff recommends the application focus on the Hwy 6 Trail section between Fairmeadows Boulevard and Heinz Road. Projects that utilize SRT funds are eligible for reimbursement of all eligible and properly documented costs up to the awarded amount, or a maximum of 80% of project costs, whichever is less. As part of the application, the City is required to include an official endorsement in the form of a resolution by Council. The endorsement provides assurance the City will maintain the trail for a minimum of 20 years following completion, if funding is awarded.
