A draft Capital Improvement Program (CIP) has been developed for this program. It shows: Segments 9-10, Long Lake Road to Silver Lake Road on the south side being constructed in 2006 Segments 1-5, County Road H to Silver Lake Road on the north side being constructed in 2008 Segment 6, Silver Lake Road to Pleasant View Drive on the north side being constructed in 2009 Segments 7-8, Pleasant View Drive to Silver Lake Road on the south side being constructed in 2010 Segment 11, Edgewood Drive to Woodale Drive on the south side being constructed in 2011(this segment will most likely be more dependent on re-development rather than a set time frame) The Draft CIP was presented to the City Council on April 3, 2006. The City Council recommended that the City should seek to construct trailway segments 1-5 in 2007 utilizing City Funds and seek to be reimbursed with the federal grant funds at a later date when they become available. The CIP was then changed to reflect construction in 2007. The City also submitted a DNR Trailway Grant application for the segment on the south side in between Silver Lake Road and Long Lake Road (segments 9-10) on February 28, 2006. The City will know if we were successful or not with this grant application in June of this year. Ramsey County Walkable Communities Work shop is scheduled for Thursday, May 11, 2006. 1:00 p.m. to 5:15 p.m. This workshop will be studying segments 9-10. Gateway Monuments – On March 6, 2006, the City Council indicated a desire to look into the feasibility and costs associated with constructing the County Road 10 Gateway Monument Signage. There are three monument signs under consideration–East Entrance, West Entrance, and Civic District Trail Gateway. The City’s consultant has submitted letter proposal to look into developing a schematic design for each of these signs. This will be presented to City Council on May 1, 2006. Are there any comments the Commission would like to provide?
