At that time, the City <br />Council gave direction that the City should proceed with two segments of trailway <br />along the County Road 10 corridor: 1.) The segments on the north side between <br />County Road H and Red Oak Drive (Silver Lake Road): Segments 1-5 and; 2.) <br />the segments on the south side between Long Lake Road and Silver Lake Road: <br />Segments 9 & 10. <br />On August 28, 2006 the City Council approved Resolution 6930 authorizing the <br />preliminary design of landscape architecture elements along the County Road 10 <br />Trailway Corridor. <br />During the remainder of 2006 and 2007, the project for Trail Segments 9 & 10 <br />was implemented, with construction essentially now complete. <br />During 2007, the Feasibility Report for Trails 1 – 5 was developed in anticipation <br />of 2008 construction. The completed Report included the landscape architectural <br />elements identified in the preliminary landscape architecture design. <br />On November 13, 2007 the City Council reviewed the Feasibility Report for the <br />County Road 10 Trailway Project: Segments 1-5 and held a Public Hearing on <br />the project. The City Council chose not to proceed with the project at that time. <br />Council directed Staff to perform an analysis of the TIF fund to verify that <br />sufficient funding existed for the anticipated projects identified in the CIP. The <br />analysis was performed in January 2008, and the issue was discussed at the City <br />Council Work Session on March 3, 2008.
