Background Information:
wow
The Department of Parks and Recreation had previously obtained $425,000 in Safe Neighborhood
Parks Bond (SNPB) funds for the restoration of the Spoil Islands as a match to a U.S. Army Corps of
Engineer project. The funds from the Corps were cut due to the reprogramming of federal legislative
priorities.Since the total estimated cost of the island restoration is approximately $850,000,the city
will be applying to FIND for a $425,000 needed to do the project. The project consists of various
levels of enhancements including shoreline stabilization, docks, and clearing of exotic vegitation at
five spoil islands.
