The <br />City Council chose not to proceed with the project at that time for two primary reasons. <br />The first was the increased project cost relative to the estimated project cost included in <br />the City Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). The second reason was the reduction in TIF <br />funds available for the project. <br />On June 9, 2008 the City Council adopted Resolution 7279 approving the Feasibility <br />Report, ordering the project with reduced scope, authorizing the preparation of plans <br />and specifications, and authorizing easement activities for the County Road 10 Trailway <br />Project: Segments 1-5. <br />On November 24, 2008 the City Council adopted Resolution 7362 approving the plans <br />and authorizing the advertisement for bids for the County Road 10 Trailway Project: <br />Segments 1-5. <br />On December 17, 2008 the permit application documents for the County Road 10 <br />Trailway Project: Segments 1-5 were submitted to the Department of the Army Corps of <br />Engineers (COE) for wetland impacts. <br />On December 19, 2008 the permit application documents for the County Road 10 <br />Trailway Project: Segments 1-5 were submitted to the Rice Creek Watershed District <br />(RCWD) for wetland impacts. <br />On December 31, 2008 the COE provided written approval of the permit for the project, <br />subject to mitigation of the wetland impacts.
