Title

RECOMMENDATION OF A TRAIL CONNECTION FROM LEXINGTON ATHLETIC COMPLEX TO 122^ND AVENUE

Background

City Staff would like the NRCB to consider funding a section of trail to connect Lexington Athletic Complex to 122^ND Avenue.  This would provide a safe route for our residents to access the park and the city is always looking to connect all sidewalks and trails whenever possible.  The engineering estimate to complete this 730 foot section of trail is $75,000 and the funds would come from the open space budget.  If recommended by the NRCB, staff would put this $75,000 expenditure in the 2020 Open Space budget that will be approved by the City Council this fall.  Construction of the trail would take place in the summer of 2020. 

Recommendation

By motion, recommend to the city council the trail connection from Lexington Athletic Complex to 122^ND Avenue.
