Summary
Council approved a letter of commitment for the second phase of the Lake Storey shared-use path, which will use IDOT's US-150 bridge to cross the lake; the city will handle right-of-way, construction and maintenance of any bridge additions.
Staff recommended that the city approve a letter of commitment for the second phase of the Lake Storey shared-use path, connecting Woodblock Road to Gatewood Lane and using IDOT's US-150 bridge to cross the lake.
