Mobbs Committee backs $8,407 Rabbit Tracks drainage fixes and 55-foot boardwalk
Summary
The Mobbs Committee unanimously agreed June 22 to proceed with Rabbit Tracks Trail Works’ $8,407 proposal to add drainage improvements and build a 55-foot boardwalk on the Out & Back Trail; materials will be purchased before fiscal year end and work invoiced in FY’27.
The Mobbs Committee on June 22 unanimously agreed to move forward with a Rabbit Tracks Trail Works proposal to remediate wet sections of a heavily used trail and to construct a new 55-foot boardwalk west of Pam’s Swale.
Greg Fatigate, owner of Rabbit Tracks Trail Works, submitted a bid totaling $8,407 that the committee reviewed and supported. The proposal breaks down to $2,767 for materials and $5,640 for equipment mobilization and labor. Committee members said the work will address persistent drainage problems and create a more durable tread for walkers, runners and riders.
To keep the work within current fiscal constraints, the committee decided to purchase the listed materials before the end of FY’26; the contractor will complete the boardwalk and invoice for labor and mobilization in FY’27. The minutes record unanimous support to move forward but do not list a recorded motion mover or seconder for this specific approval.
The committee’s decision follows earlier trail repairs and maintenance discussions, including Riley Glanz’s recent replacement of three damaged rails on the Ridge Trail bridge. Members said the Rabbit Tracks project will remediate wet sections on one of the committee’s most-used trails and improve year-round trail access.
Next steps: the committee will authorize purchase of materials before fiscal year end and schedule the contractor work for FY’27; details on a formal contract or procurement timeline were not specified in the minutes.
