Our studies have indicated tat the cost of the harbor and related recreational facilities will be approximately $500,000. + Regulations concerning the Corps ' participation differ as to small boat harbors and recreational developments , therefore, they will be,! discussed separately. The Corps can participate in the development of a harbor under�l Section 107 of the River and Harbor Act of 1960. Under this act, the Federal participation may provide only general navigation facilities , such as a protected anchorage and turning basin and major access channel. Local sponsor responsibilities for which assurances will be required are: a. Provide without cost to the United States all lands , easements ? and rights-of-way for the construction and maintenance of the project when and as required; . Hold and save the United States free from damages due to the construction works and maintenance of the project; c. Make such utility and other relocations or alterations as required for project purposes ; d. In single-purpose recreational navigation projects , the first +l costs of the general navigation facilities , shall be shared equallyi by Federal and non-Federal interests. Where other purposes , such as commercial fishing or deep-draft use, are involved, the sponsor's share will be computed on the basis of a formula set forth in our Engineering Manual 1120-2-113 ; I' e. Assume full responsibility for all project costs in excess of $1,000,000; it f. Provide and maintain, without cost to the United States , an adequate public landing or wharf and other necessary self-liquidat- ing items . Such self-liquidating service facilities will generall 1 include: (1) An adequate service frontage on the navigation channel on basin; 1 (2) Provisions for the sale of motor fuel, lubricants , and potable water, available to all on equal terms (in accordance with plans approved by the Chief of Engineers when deemed necessary) ; t 528. ___-Regular, Council. Meeting, .November .6, _1972.- , — (3) Bulkheads , piers , slips , floats, and similar marina and Imooring facilities as needed for transient and local boats , includ- I ; ing dredged berthing areas adjacent to and under fixed or floating !structures ; �f (4) Access roads , parking areas , and other necessary public }use shore facilities . `g. Operate and maintain for the life of the Federal project all ,facilities installed pursuant to the agreement. One or more of the following optional arrangements for local jrepayment of the non-Federal cash contribution toward proposed Federal small boat harbor projects may be recommended in survey I� reports for authorization by Congress: I �a. A single payment before the beginning of construction, parti- iJcularly when only a relatively small sum is involved, or when a ;single construction season or a single Federal allotment will be ;' 11 required; 1; fib. A series of annual payments over the construction period, with ;r �interest, in amounts proportionate to the proposed or scheduled appropriations of Federal funds for the project; (Each Iicontribution should include an ap ropriate contingency allowance to cover change orders and overruns. Marina. c. A series of uniform annual payments over an extended period, not to exceed 50 years , with interest on the unpaid balance at the rate prescribed by the Treasury pursuant to the Water Supply Act of 1958, as amended. However, the Missouri constitution would limit ` the terms of repayment to 20 years , rather than 50 years if the repayments are to be based on the proceeds of taxation as contrastedi with revenues . The regulations stating the policies of the Corps concerning recreational facilities at non-reservoir projects are included under Section 207 of the 1962 Flood Control Act. Agreements to p i articipate with a non-Federal entity in the development of these i facilities will require the non-Federal entity to: t ! a. Provide all additional lands , or rights in land, required to I' (insure public control of the development; 11b. Where the Carps ' appraised value of the land provided under a, above, amounts to less than 50 per cent of the total first cost of !� the recreational development , make additional contributions , before construction, sufficient to bring the non-Federal share to at least , that level; which additional contribution may consist of the actual ' cost of carrying out an agreed-upon portion of the development, or a cash contribution, or a combination of both; ' c. Operate, and maintain for the life of the Federal project, the irecreational area and all facilities installed pursuant to the Ij agreement ; a d. Assure access to all on equal terms. Our next step in proceeding with the feasibility studies is ! for the city of Jefferson to furnish us limits of the area to be included in the project. This should include a legal description of the lands and any necessary road easements to connect with adjacent road nets . Definite plans for work cannot be started until we receive this information. Inclosed is an artist 's illustration of what might be constructed at the site. Please furnish any comments you may have on this illustration. Sincerely yours, /s/ PAUL D.

Following your recommendation of a responsible course of action, I am writing this letter to ask that you present this matter to the City Council. As one of the considerable number of people whose travel was delayed on the Whitton Expressway for an extended period by the Homecoming High School Homecoming Parade, I was trying to figure out a good Parade. reason why this was permitted to happen, and frankly I couldn' t come up with a single one. Not only is this an expressway, which people would ordinarily choose for travel when time is important, but it carries traffic on Highways 50 and 63. Fortunately, I was not late for an important appointment, but I imagined myself as a salesman, rushing to meet an important customer and losing a sale because I had to stop on a federal highway to watch pretty high school students march by. If there was a good reason why traffic should have been blocked on this major artery for this purpose, I would appreciate your letting me know about it. If there was no compelling reason, I am sure that many motorists in the future will be grateful to the Council, if they have the assurance that this won't happen again.
