Council approves Smart Scale application for 21st Street shared-use path (phase 2)

Town staff asked the council to approve pursuing a Smart Scale grant for the 21st Street shared-use path (phase 2), a pedestrian/bicycle project linking Suzanne Kane Nature Preserve to the W&OD Trail. Jessica Keller said a public hearing on an earlier segment had received no negative feedback and that the final application for phase 2 is due Aug. 3. Council unanimously authorized staff to proceed with the full application process and to authorize the town manager to execute applications and administration agreements if funding is approved.
