Summary

Community Development presented a UDOT trails grant application for a 2.5-mile regional trail; UTA granted a 16-foot easement the county can use as match and the design anticipates a 10-foot pathway. Commissioners approved the match agreement 25-13.

Community Development staff presented the 'Historic Orchard' pathway as the county's priority trail project and described the funding arrangement: the county's match for a UDOT trail grant will include the value of a UTA easement (16-foot corridor) plus Willard City's right-of-way for the county's share of the match. The segment runs roughly 2.5 miles from the south boundary of Willard City toward the area near 8700 South.

"The UTA easement is 16 feet, and the path, final design, my guess, it'll be, 10 foot pathway," the presenter said, adding that Perry and Willard already have sections with 10-foot widths. Commissioners voted to approve match agreement 25-13 so staff can proceed with grant design and application.
