Capital Improvement Program <br />City of Ramsey, Minnesota <br />2013 thru 2017 <br />Department Park Improvements <br />Contact <br />Project # 06-PARK-011 <br />Project Name Observation boardwalk - Lake Itasca <br />Description <br />Type Improvement <br />Useful Life 20 Years <br />Category Park Improvement <br />Priority 6-Planned <br />Status Active <br />Total Project Cost: $40,000 <br />Boardwalk in the southeast portion of the open water wetland. <br />Justification <br />Lake Itasca is an important destination for migratory waterfowl and other wetland fauna. 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 />Expenditures <br />2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 Total <br />Improvements Other than Build <br />40,000 40,000 <br />Total <br />40,000 40,000 <br />Funding Sources 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 Total <br />Lawful Gambling Fund 40,000 40,000 <br />Total <br />40,000 40,000 <br />Revised 10/2012 <br />PAGE 126 <br />
