Committee OKs Bowman addendum for Tookany Creek Trail design work totaling $667,300
Summary
The committee recommended approving a Bowman addendum for preliminary engineering, final design and construction observation for the Tookany Creek Trail (TASA) project in the amount of $667,300; staff said most work is covered by grants but will follow up with precise funding breakdowns.
Commissioner Lewis introduced a proposal for Bowman to complete preliminary engineering, final design and construction observation tasks for the Tookany Creek Trail TASA project at a cost of $667,300. Manager Elliott told commissioners the project is "largely paid for by grant" and that the township has about $2,300,000 in grant funding for the broader project, though staff had earlier pursued an additional $400,000 DVRPC application that was not awarded. Elliott committed to providing a detailed breakdown of which components the grants will cover and any township match required.
Commissioners asked whether the addendum would affect the township's capital budget and how much of the $667,300 would need to come from local funds; Elliott agreed to send a follow‑up email with the exact figures ahead of the board meeting.
