County-backed Eagle Parkway Trail remains a priority; staff to re-submit for MARC funding
Summary
Staff said county official John Davis wrote letters supporting the Eagle Parkway Trail; the board discussed re-submitting the trail to MARC and coordinating with the county's master planning process.
Staff told the board they had previously submitted the Eagle Parkway Trail to MARC and it did not receive funding; county planner John Davis had supported the project and "wrote two letters for us in favor of this," Matt said. Members discussed connections across the golf course, the Baines Bridge segment and stormwater constraints.
Staff said the county is updating its parks and rec master plan, but remains supportive. The board agreed the trail project is worth re-submitting in coordination with county officials and private developers when possible. Staff will follow up with county contacts and include the trail as a candidate for the upcoming application round.
