Cost Change

Cost change due to the addition of FY29 and FY30 to this ongoing project, and additional funding required to match federal grants to renovate existing trails and the ongoing work associated with this trail program.
anchor

Justification

Scheduled maintenance and renovation promotes safety and reduces long-term maintenance costs. In park user surveys, hiking and biking on trails is the most frequent recreation activity reported. Biking and walking paths top respondents' lists of desired facilities or greatest facility shortages. 2016 Countywide Park Trails Plan, 2017 Park, Recreation, and Open Space Plan.

Fiscal Note

Prior year partial capitalization of expenditures through FY16 totaled $5,284,000. FY22 added $350k State Aid for Wheaton Regional Park Bond Bill ($200k) and Randolph Hills Local Park ($150k). $500k of Federal Aid was provided in FY24 and will be used to rehabilitate approximately three miles of trails, seven miles of walking paths, and two miles of roadway in the South Germantown Recreational Park. The fiscal note has been updated to reflect the addition of $500K in Federal funds attributed to the Safe Streets 4 All (SS4A) grant as well as $1.5M in GO Bonds in FY25.
