Town staff: overlay planned for trail behind Carbondale elementary, costs under budget
Summary
Public works staff said the town will overlay a trail that runs from Snowmass Drive behind the orchard and elementary school to the new teacher housing, likely while school is out; the bid came in below the budgeted amount.
A staff update to the Carbondale Bike Ped Trails Commission said the town will overlay a trail that runs from Snowmass Drive behind the orchard and elementary school and in front of the new teacher housing, likely during the July school break.
A staff speaker said the town "got a decent bid on that. It's less than we had budgeted." Commissioners asked whether the surface would be an overlay rather than chip seal; staff confirmed it would be an overlay intended to benefit the trail's condition.
Commissioners also noted removal of a metal railing near the elementary school created a continuous full-width trail in that location. The speaker estimated the work would take a couple of days once scheduled and said water or sewer line work on Second Street could affect timing.
The commission received the update with no formal motion; staff indicated they would bring cost and timeline details back to trustees if needed.
