REQUEST: i Please prepare a bill for an ordinance to appropriate $20,000.00 from the Park Dedication Fund for Waimea Trails and Greenways, create a new capital account for Waimea Trails and Greenways, and transfer the appropriated Park Dedication Funds to the new capital account. Due to the urgency to complete the work, ! request is also to waive committee. '4 4 }4f t i I 'i B. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION (USE ADDITIONAL SHEETS AS NEEDED): The appropriation is for Phase 2 of the Waimea Trails and Greenways Project. Phase 2 is located on Parker Ranch land. Parker Ranch granted an easement to the County for the trail; however, sections of the easement may be too steep to practically construct a trail. The purpose of the funding is to stake the existing easement and adjust the easement as needed. Parker Ranch has consented to work with the County and community in determining the adjustments. Upon agreement of any adjustments, the appropriation would also cover redescribing and restaking the easement in order to amend the Grant of Easement.
