SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation administers the Waterways Improvement Fund grant program for improvements to facilities serving motorized watercraft. The funding for the
grant program is from annual boat user registration fees.
The McCall boat launch is approximately 40 years old. It was repaired several years ago, but there are signficant cracks and the launch pad is uneven. Grant funds through through the
Idaho Department Parks and Recreation’s WIF program are needed to replace the boat launch. The Parks and Recreation Director has received one quote for removal and disposal of the
old launch and installation of a new launch. In addition, a sidewalk and boat launch ADA access will be installed using Community Choices for Idaho grant funds. Valley County’s Waterways
Advisory Committee has commited $25,000 in FY15 as matching funds for the project.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve submission of a Waterways Improvement Fund grant application for the replacement of the City boat launch and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
