The City of McCall submitted a TIGER Grant application in 2014 for design/engineering of improvements recommended in the McCall Downtown Master Plan (DMP) for the downtown core, but was not awarded funding.

It was agreed that an application should be pursued to include design, engineering, and construction of water/sewer utilities and street, curb, gutter, and sidewalk improvements in the downtown core. Staff are also considering including some or all of the City Campus development as part of the scope of work for the proposed application. Staff requests approval to move forward with the submittal of the pre-application. The scope, estimated cost, timeline, and matching funds request will be presented to Council at the May 28 Council meeting for approval prior to final submittal.  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve submission of the TIGER FY 2015 Grant pre-application for infrastructure improvements in downtown McCall.  RECORD OF COUNCIL ACTION  MEETING DATE ACTION
