DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT <br />located within the trail alignment. General findings show there is one vertebrate animal of threatened status <br />within 500 feet of the existing trail alignment. There are none located near the sections of trail still to he <br />constructed, therefore no impacts to rare plants or animals are anticipated that would require additional <br />costs for mitigation or avoidance. An archaeological survey will he conducted if required and wetland <br />delineations will be performed to determine boundaries, so that the trail may he developed in a way that <br />reduces and/or includes mitigation of the impacted wetlands. in additional soil borings may be taken to <br />ensure proper construction in areas where soils are questionable. Sin this trail alignment is proposed to <br />traverse open green space areas, wildlife friendly erosion contro rials and native seeding will he <br />incorporated into the trail design. <br />Table 1 <br />PROPOSED BUNKER -CHAIN OF LAKES <br />DEVELOPMENT COST ESTIMATE <br />Description <br />Design/Engineering/Project Management <br />Archaeological Survey <br />Wetland Delineation <br />Topographic Survey/Construction Staking <br />Geotechnical Survey <br />Clearing and grubbing <br />Utility relocations, if required <br />Bituminous trail construction <br />Pedestrian Bridge Construction <br />Lighting <br />Landscaping and restoration <br />Signage and striping <br />Site Furnishings <br />Sub -Total <br />Contingency (10%) <br />Total <br />REGIONAL TRAIL <br />Total <br />$540,000 <br />$100,000 <br />$150,000 <br />$300,000 <br />$150,000 <br />5200,000 <br />$200,000 <br />$1,600,000 <br />$2,000,000 <br />$50,000 <br />s150,000 <br />$50,000 <br />$25,00(1 <br />$5,515,000 <br />5551,50(1 <br />$6,066,500 <br />implement the construction HI this trail as opportunities occur. <br />Page 12 <br />The development cost estimate for <br />completion of this trail is $6,066,500. <br />The cost breakdown is shown in Table <br />1.
