CITY COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO
THRU: Don Marr, Chief of Staff
Terry Gulley, Transportation Services Director
Chris Brown, City Engineer
FROM: Matt Mihalevich, Trails Coordinator
DATE: November 15th, 2016
SUBJECT: 2016-0533 Recreational Trails Grant Agreement — Trail Replacement
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of an Agreement of Understanding for Job 040685, Fayetteville
Razorback Regional Greenway Rehab. (RTP -16) (S) and authorizing the Mayor to sign
additional contracts with the Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department as necessary to
utilize $56,000.00 in federal -aid funds through the Arkansas Recreational Trails Program (RTP)
for the repair of a damaged section of the Razorback Regional Greenway (Frisco Trail) from
Maple Street to Frisco Ave. and approving a budget adjustment to recognize the revenue.
BACKGROUND:
A 670 foot long section of the Frisco Trail, now part of the Razorback Regional Greenway from
Maple Street to Frisco Avenue has degraded due to subgrade issues associated with the steep
cut along the Arkansas and Missouri Railroad. A geotechnical analysis was performed and
determined that the subgrade below the trail has shifted resulting in the large cracks on the trail
surface. Fortunately, the report also indicates solid shale approximately 3 feet below the trail
surface. The recommendation of the geotechnical analysis is to excavate the existing trail down
to the solid shale, then build back with select fill, base and a new concrete trail surface.
DISCUSSION:
A willingness to apply for funding for the Razorback Regional Greenway repair project was
approved on May 17th, 2016 by resolution 103-16. In September of 2016, the City was awarded
the full requested amount of $56,000 through the Recreational Trails Program which is
administered through the Arkansas State Highway and Transportation Department.
BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT:
The Recreational Trails Program requires the local municipality to provide 20% of the total
project cost, or $14,000. The labor costs for the city in-house trail construction crew is eligible
to count toward the 20% city match. Funding for the match has been budgeted through the Trail
Development Capital Improvement Program. The total cost of this trail replacement is
estimated at $70,000.
