<br /> <br /> <br />County Road 10 Corridor Improvement Program – Currently On Hold <br />The City has applied for a grant for construction of a 10’ wide bituminous trailway on the north side of County Road 10 from County Road H to Silver Lake Road. The estimated project <br /> cost is $625,000. If successful, grant funds ($500,00) would be allocated in 2009/2010 -perhaps sooner under special conditions. As it stands now, we rank 13th out of 55 applications. <br /> Based on this, it appears that we may have just missed the cutoff for receiving a federal grant. <br /> <br />Groveland Park Field – Currently On Hold <br />Striping it was put on hold until next spring. Staff will contact adjacent property owner. <br /> <br />Facility Guide Update – The Commissioners have requested to review the current draft. <br /> <br />City Property East of Sysco – Staff walked the site on September 19, 2005. It appears likely that nearly this entire site is wetland. Any development of this site may be difficult. Staff <br /> has contacted the firm of RLK to seek assistance in determining the feasibility of developing this site. RLK refused to provide this assistance, since it constituted a conflict of interest <br /> since both Medtronic and Sysco hired them for their site development plans. The firm of BRAA will be providing a letter report pertaining to the feasibility of developing this site. <br /> A draft of this report will be presented to the Park and Recreation Commission on January 26, 2006. <br /> <br />6.
