From the meeting
The City Council was scheduled to authorize an Advanced Funding Agreement with the Texas Department of Transportation for design and construction of a boardwalk segment on the south bank of Lady Bird Lake. The project would connect to the Ann and Roy Butler Hike and Bike Trail and carried a total estimated cost of $25,000,000, with $25,000,000 in state funds and no local match required. The ordinance also transferred and appropriated the same amount in the Parks and Recreation capital budget.
Decision state: vote scheduled.
