Wayne Rawlins and Michael Carrier of Oregon <br /> Parks and Recreation. We discussed a delay in partner funding which the <br /> City is currently experiencing, and how it affects our Local Government Grant <br /> for improvements at Delta Ponds. As was suggested in the meeting, we have <br /> redefined the scope of grant-related work, deleting improvements which would <br /> Parks and Open have been funded by our partnering agency, the Army Corps of Engineers, <br /> Space Planning and including only items which can be accomplished by the City of Eugene <br /> Parks Maintenance with resources from State Parks. With this approach, we can meet the stated <br /> deadline of completion by June 30, 2005. We will have the finalized billing <br /> urban Forestry statement and documentation to you shortly thereafter. <br /> <br /> Waterwa snd Open The work accomplished under this revised scope of work will stand alone as a <br /> Y <br /> recreation improvement at Delta Ponds. Despite the delay which the overall <br /> Delta Ponds project is experiencing, public access and recreation will be <br /> improved and available for use by mid-2005, thanks to this grant funding. <br /> Improvements under the revised scope of work include a 10-vehicle parking <br /> lot, a 1,300 foot long gravel trail, and a paved path, boardwalk and overlook <br /> designed to bring persons with disabilities down to the water's edge. Once <br /> funding comes through from the Army Corp of Engineers, additional recreation <br /> improvements will be constructed which tie into the current work. <br /> The City of Eugene'is grateful to State Parks, both for the grant dollars and for <br /> the flexibility in modifying the project scope to allow us to complete these <br /> important park amenities. If you have any questions, please call, 682-4914. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Carolyn J.
