This Ordinance establishes the Prairie Avenue to Minnequa Lake Trail Project, CI2115. The
project will provide for design and construction of an on-street and off-street trail
connection west from Lake Minnequa Park to Alma Avenue along Tucci Lane. The project
will also provide for the design of the trail south to Pueblo Blvd along the drainage ditch
east of S. Prairie Ave. The construction of the remainder of the trail will be a future project.
The City of Pueblo was awarded a Multimodal Option Fund (MMOF) grant with an overall
project cost of $388,000. The match requirement for the state funded grant is 50% of the
entire project costs. The funds for the match ($194,000) have been provided by the
federally funded Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) grant leftover funding
through CDOT.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The City of Pueblo is not required to provide funding for the match for this grant. The
grant match has been provided through the TAP grant left over funds from CDOT.

None.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
None.
ALTERNATIVES:
Currently, there are no alternatives for completing the improvements without the funding
from the State of Colorado CDOT MMOF and TAP grants.
