The Central Virginia Transportation Authority on a roll‑call vote approved Henrico County’s request to reallocate funding among segments of the Fall Line Trail so construction can proceed on more advanced sections.

Executive Director Harry Parsons told the authority the total allocation for the package remains roughly $35,800,000 but that Henrico asked to shift funds between segments to match construction timing. The authority record shows the requested transfers: $462,000 moved to Lakeside Community Trail Phase 1 from Longdale Trail; $497,000 shifted to Lakeside Community Trail Phase 3 from Longdale Trail; and an aggregate $959,000 reallocated from Longdale Trail to Lakeside Community Trail phases noted in the agenda packet. Parsons said the change is primarily about timing: some phases have final construction estimates and are ready to move forward, while Longdale faces right‑of‑way delays.

A Henrico County representative present confirmed the first six phases are further along with updated construction estimates and that Longdale’s parcels are still being acquired. Finance committee recommended the reallocation after reviewing project schedules and estimates.

Reverend Nelson moved the motion to approve the allocation shifts; the motion was seconded and approved by roll call with the attending jurisdictions recorded as voting in favor. The authority’s action updates Appendix A of the standard project agreement records to reflect the new allocations.

Next steps: Henrico will proceed with the work on the advanced Lakeside segments; the authority’s record indicates staff and the county will monitor Longdale and return if additional funds are needed later.
