The Parks, Trails, and Recreation Committee (PTRC) has requested staff apply for a grant through the Minnesota DNR Local Trail Connection Prof,Tfam to connect this underpass trail to Perry Park. The grade up to Perry Park is a challenge and the location indicated is the only fcasible area for ADA compliance. Staff has figured a preliminary cost estimate for this trail segment at $38,500. There is a fifty percent cash match for this program for eligible expenses. Therefore, if awarded the grant, the City must complete the project and fully pay for it, produce documentation that shows actual expenditures and the City will receive half of what was spent up to their grant award. Engineering fees are not eligible for . reimbursement (estimated at $5,000). The PTRC did tentatively add this trail location to their strategies at their October 17, 2006 meeting. The Committee will be bringing back revised strategies, including this trail segment at the November 27, 2006, Regular City Council Meeting for approval. The grant has a deadline of February 28, 2007, and the awards will be announced sometime in July 2007. Staff does plan on bringing forward an official resolution to the City Council supporting the completed grant application sometime in February 2007. Councilmember Grant asked if staff intends to proceed with this project whether or not they rcceivc the grant. Ms. Olson responded they would proceed if they did not reccive the grant.
