Eligible projects for TAP funding are on- and off-road pedestrian and bicycle facilities, infrastructure projects for improving non-driver access to public transportation and enhanced mobility, and safe routes to school educational projects. Idaho Street from First Street to Mission Street is identified as in need of full reconstruction and is in the funding matrix for the 1% Streets LOT. Pedestrian/bike facilities are also needed on that road section as it adjacent to McCall Donnelly High School and residential areas and would provide a connection between two existing pathway systems (see attached map). Horrocks Engineers is developing the preliminary cost estimate which will be provided to the City Council at the 5/26/16 meeting. The matching requirement is 7.34% of total project cost.  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve submission of a 2016 Transportation Alternatives Program funding application for Idaho Street pathway improvements and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
