THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

St. Joseph staff are revisiting Phase 2 improvements for River’s Bend Park, including a paved trail completion, observation platform, restroom with well and pump, picnic pavilion, and parking lot lighting. LCCMR grant rules have changed to require a 25% local capital match, estimated at about $126,250, so timing and scope are being reconsidered. This is early planning; they need funding strategy, grant support, and eventual design and construction partners.

Background

Phase 1 of River’s Bend used LCCMR funding; Phase 2 must meet new match rules, and costs are expected to rise with inflation.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
