<br />TO: <br /> <br />City Council <br /> <br /> <br />rCI ---'\) <br />( /I <br />~Iil <br /> <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />Phil Dais, StreetJPark Superintendent <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />January 16, 1995 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />ISTEA Grant <br /> <br />I have completed the grant application for the 1996 to 1998 Federally funded ISTEA <br />Grant program for Trail System involving the improvements on the Railroad Trail. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />I request that the City Council pass the enclosed resolution which pledges Financial <br />support for the proposed trail system grand for 25 percent of the total cost or $69,375.00 <br />which if the grant application is successful could come from park dedication funds. Also <br />in the resolution is a commitment for $52,000 worth of equipment and labor by the City <br />StreetlPark Department which is 19% of the total proposal. This work would consist of <br />clearing and grubbing trees before the trail construction and the restoration and seeding <br />after the construction. <br /> <br />It is my hope that these additions may make our grant application attractive enough to be <br />successful. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />S:phgmtlll1D <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
