A boardwalk in the southeast portion of the open water <br />wetland will invite trail users to experience this and provides direct contact with the lake. <br />In addition, an observation area with seating (similar to the one in Wetland #114P), provides a point of relaxation on the several mile -long Lake <br />Itasca Trail. <br />The construction would be done by in -house forces (including Department of Corrections forces) - thereby saving 60% of potential costs. <br />2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 Total <br />40,000 40,000 <br />40,000 40,000 <br />Funding Sources 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 Total <br />Lawful Gambling Fund 40,000 40,000 <br />40,000 40,000 <br />PAGE 123 <br />
