This will be for the needed design and the construction portion of the project. The total budget for this portion of the project is $400,000.

If approved by the CRA, Staff asks for this item to be forwarded to City Council for approval as well. Mr. Dodd asked for clarification because the Executive Summary within the Staff Report says that this LWCF grant will fund half of the improvements. The City Manager reviewed that the half refers to the $200,000 LWCF grant which will cover half of the $400,000 estimated cost for the project. Mr. Dodd asked if the $400,000 will cover all of the needed improvements. The City Manager said it is unknown if $400,000 will be enough to handle all of the improvements.
