Parks & Open Space: Intergovernmental Agreement for Funding of Rocky
Mountain Greenway Trail Crossings through the Federal Land Access Program.
A request from Parks & Open Space that the Board of County Commissioners
approve the Intergovernmental Agreement for funding Rocky Mountain Greenway
Trail Crossings with Jefferson County and the Cities of Boulder, Westminster,
and Arvada, in substantially the form presented to the Board, and authorize
the Chairman of the Board to execute the IGA and any related documents with
federal agencies required by the terms of the Federal Lands Access Program
(FLAP) grant for the trail crossings. The IGA formalizes an arrangement for
equitably funding the monetary match requirements of the FLAP grant to
design and build two crossings for the Rocky Mountain Greenway trail in
Jefferson and Boulder Counties into the Rocky Flats National Wildlife Refuge
(RFNWR) at an estimated total cost of $3.93 million and an estimated cost to
Boulder County of $89,894. Boulder County’s share will solely apply to an
underpass of State Highway 128 that will create a safe crossing for trail
users connecting from existing trails in Boulder County to the greenway in
RFNWR. The Rocky Mountain Greenway currently extends from the Rocky
Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge to Westminster and Jefferson County.
Through the FLAP grant, the greenway would connect to RFNWR and then north
into Boulder County; it is ultimately envisioned to reach Rocky Mountain
National Park. The IGA includes a provision for funding a percentage share of
future costs for additional radionuclide testing during construction as
described in the agreement.
