SUMMARY STATEMENT:
Dave Bingaman will present a Safe Route to Schools grant application by Valley County Parks and Recreation. The project would connect a pathway along Samson Trail to the city pathway
near the Middle School at the intersection of Deinhard Ln and Samson Trail. The trail would tie into the short piece of the paved city trail that extends south to the Fox Ridge Rd.
Mr. Bingaman would like to ask the Council for a letter of support for the application and the collaboration to build a portion of the trail in the City ROW if the grant application
is chosen. The portion in the City ROW is from just north of Sampson Court to the intersection at Deinhard Lane.
City Council previously approved submittal of a City of McCall application to this same grant program (Children Pedestrian Safety) for safety improvements and maintenance of the paved
separated pathway along E. Deinhard Lane from 3rd Street (SH55) to Samson Trail to be completed in conjunction with reconstruction of E. Deinhard Lane in summer 2023. The City of McCall
grant application will request the full eligible grant amount of $250,000 and, if funded, would create safety and ADA improvements to the existing pathway including construction of
a new section of the pathway to create separation from the E. Deinhard Lane roadway, addition of an ADA compliant ramp to access the pathway at Commerce Street, and installation of
a pedestrian activated crossing beacon at Valley Springs Drive for use by families living in The Springs local housing units.
Mr. Bingaman is requesting a letter of support from the City supporting the Valley County Pathways proposal. Attached are the Proposal from VC Pathways, the location overview, and a
copy of the grant application. They are also applying for the full $250,000.
