Town of Fraser project approved for $50,000 conservation trust funds
Summary
The board approved a $50,000 conservation trust fund allocation to the Town of Fraser for a proposed bike park, agreeing to a district split (15% District 1, 10% District 2, 25% District 3) and to hold funds until they’re needed for construction expected this summer.
The Board of County Commissioners voted to approve a $50,000 conservation-trust-fund (CTF) request from the Town of Fraser to support a proposed bike park project, with staff and the town describing a total project budget between $850,000 and $1 million.
Paul Johnson, public works director for the Town of Fraser, said construction is planned for this coming building season and the town has an active GOCO application that, if approved, would fill most project funding gaps. Commissioners discussed how to split available CTF balances by district and settled on a proposed allocation of 15 percent from District 1, 10 percent from District 2, and 25 percent from District 3; the motion was amended to specify the funds come from the county’s CTF account. The motion passed and the board authorized the chair to sign applicable documents.
