Date: 2/11/09
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Barry Bernstein, Parks and Recreation Director
Subject: Supporting Resolution for Locals Trails Grant Application
As part of a DNR Local Trails Connections Grant, I would like to submit on behalf of the City of Hastings an
application to this grant program. The identified trail additions expressed in the grant application are the
proposed trails within Veteran's Athletic Complex. I have enclosed a map of the proposed trails for your review
and a further understanding of the scope of the project. These trail additions have been identified as critical to
eliminate the need for residents living in our southern and southeastern portions of the City to travel either by
bike, foot or other means on Spiral Boulevard which is also occupied by large tandem thick traffic or by
utilizing the very narrow and busy Miiulesota State Highway 316. h~ addition, these trail additions would extend
our very popular loop trail system.
To become eligible for this grant, the grant application requests a resolution from the Hastings City Council
supporting the grant application to be enclosed as part of the grant application. I am seeking authorization from
the City Council to submit this grant application on behalf of the City and that by your authorization you are
supportive of the enclosed resolution.
If I, on behalf of the City of Hastings, am notified we have been awarded any funding, I will bring this
information to the City Council's attention at a future City Council meeting for further action.
Thai~lc you !
