The third construction crew is working on Phase 2 of the Bike Path. This section goes from the parking lot at ASU and ending at Wade Street near Fairgrounds Drive. Currently, they are digging out for the path and basing in to get ready for concrete. The total spent to date is $303,148.46, of which $109,377.56 has been reimbursed by ARDOT for the Grant received. There is approximately $53,000 left of the Grant. Scott said it isn't officially open yet but is being used by both walkers and bikers. The Committee complimented the work that was done.

North Church Street from Highway 62 to North Street has been dug out. Culvert, curb and gutter along with sidewalk has been completed. It will be drivable until paving, which will be in the spring. The cost to date for North Church Street is $92,533.81.

Scott reported the Budget looks good. He said there is equipment purchases budgeted in this years' budget but will be carried over to next year since that equipment won't be delivered until then.
There was discussion about the intersection at 1st and Leatherwood. Susan told the Committee this intersection is very confusing and there are times when vehicles are not stopping at the 2-way stop; and maybe this should be made a 4-way stop. Scott said he will discuss it with Arnold and Steve and a decision will be made.
The meeting was adjourned at 12:38 p.m.
