Page 1 of ~1 <br />as <br />C <br />From: Moses Carey [mailto:mcareyi@mindspring.com] <br />Sent: Tuesday, February 27, 2007 9:56 PM <br />To: Mike Nelson; Alice Gordon; Barry Jacobs; Valerie Foushee <br />Cc: Laura Blackmon <br />Subject: Haw River Public Trail Access <br />BOCC members; <br />This is to make you aware that I have authorized the staff to submit a application on Feb. 28th prior to our next meeting for funds <br />to possibly acquire land for the public Trail Access on the Haw River. It will be placed on the next board consent agenda for your <br />consideration and approval. This opportunity became available in the last few days and had a short time flame for submission <br />since the State Trails coordinator requested that we apply. this means that we have a great chance of being funded. <br />This project has been on our agenda for some time, but has not been a high priority until now after being requested to apply. If <br />you do not wish to approve this item after the fact, the application can be withdrawn or the money can be declined if funded. <br />However, I did not want to bypass this opportunity. <br />I recognize that there are financial implications such as a matching requirement and possibly some type of partnership with <br />other jurisdictions with whom we signed a MOU in 2006 to work together to achieve this goal in each of our jurisdictions. Th <br />items can be discussed after approval of the application and funding. <br />Please call me of the Manager if you have any questions. <br />
