Humboldt County board backs grant to link Prairie Rivers Trail with Three Rivers Trail
Summary
The Humboldt County Board of Supervisors unanimously adopted Resolution 2026 02-23 Feb. 23, 2026, endorsing a Transportation Alternatives grant application led by the Humboldt and Webster County Conservation Boards to connect the Prairie Rivers Trail to the Three Rivers Trail and committing a local sponsor match and 20 years of maintenance.
The Humboldt County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Feb. 23 to adopt Resolution 2026 02-23, endorsing a Transportation Alternatives grant application to connect the Prairie Rivers Trail to the Three Rivers Trail.
Supervisor Pedersen moved to adopt the resolution, and Supervisor Thompson seconded. Chairperson Bruce Reimers certified the resolution, which the auditor attested as approved the same day.
The resolution expresses the board’s support for pedestrian trails and expanding the Three Rivers Trail System, cites completion of a county Hike & Bike Trail Master Plan, and states that Humboldt County will provide the required local sponsor match and will maintain the proposed trail improvements for a minimum of 20 years. The text says the connection would contribute to a more than 70-mile regional trail network spanning four counties and that local Conservation Boards are partnering on the application to achieve social, economic and health benefits for the region.
The endorsement is a formal, local-government component of a Transportation Alternatives Program grant application submitted by the Humboldt and Webster County Conservation Boards; the board’s vote does not guarantee grant funding. The resolution record shows the county’s commitment to long-term maintenance and to furnish the matching funds if the grant is awarded.
The board took no separate action on funding details at the Feb. 23 meeting. The resolution was signed by Chairperson Bruce Reimers and attested by Auditor Trish Ericksen on Feb. 23, 2026.
