body

WHEREAS, the City of Wauwatosa allocated American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds for the partial construction of a new City park at the southeast corner of 116th and Gilbert Avenue and since then, the City has secured significant additional grant funds for completion of the planned park except for the bicycle pump track; and

 

WHEREAS, the City had reserved some ARPA funds as a contingency to be utilized in other APRA-funded projects, but has not been required to utilize such contingency funds, so has determined that the remaining ARPA contingency funds shall be utilized as part of this project; and

 

WHEREAS, City staff is recommending that ARPA funds be utilized in order that the pump track be finalized in 2024 and constructed during the year 2025;

 

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Common Council of the City of Wauwatosa that the remaining ARPA contingency funds, in the amount of $229,898.00 be used to construct all or part of the 116th street park bicycle pump track.
