Uintah leaders outline RAMP grant plans for walking path, pickleball courts and playground equipment
Summary
The council reported receiving high marks on a RAMP grant application and identified project priorities: walking path first, followed by pickleball courts and playground equipment; funding sources include $27,000 in RAMP funds, a $22,000 citizen donation and about $67,000 in in‑kind public‑works demo work.
Council Member Combe told the council that the city’s RAMP grant application received strong evaluations; the city has $27,000 in RAMP funds available for the project and a citizen has pledged $22,000. Public Works will provide roughly $67,000 worth of demolition work as part of in‑kind matches, giving the project nearly 20% in‑kind contribution under the current engineering plan.
Combe said the engineered scope allows the city to prioritize projects; he identified the walking path as the top priority, with pickleball courts second and playground equipment third. He said that if the city does not receive the full requested amount it will reapply next year for additional funds. Council Member Sorenson and others discussed contractor donations and timing for selection, which is expected by the end of the week.
