Nelson, - . REFERENCES: Letter: John F. Morley to <br />County Administrator County Administrator dated <br />April 29, 1981 <br />Description and Conditions <br />Mr. Morley Track Director, Four Hills BMX, Knights'of Columbus, is re- <br />questing the County donate 150 cubic yards -of shell/sand mix for.the purpose <br />of constructing a public bicycle track at the Knights of Columbus site on <br />Oslo Road.- Transportation of the Material, approximately 15 - 10 yard loads <br />is to be performed by the Four Hills BMX council. The track is intended to <br />serve as a sporting facility, and bathrooms in the area of the track are being <br />built by the Knights of Columbus. There will be a slight fee for using the <br />track. <br />Alternatives and Analysis <br />If the County agrees to contribute this material, the cost to the County <br />would be approximately $900.00 based on a current cost of $6.00 per cubic yard. <br />The County does have this material available at the.County marl pit on Oslo <br />Road. <br />In the past,.the County Road and Bridge Department has not encouraged the <br />donation of shell/marl materials. Once word is out, the requests become <br />numerous. We have over a 10 year supply of this material, however, this is <br />based on normal projected use on County roads. <br />Recommendation and Fundin <br />It -is recommended by the Department of Public Works that the County <br />seriously consider each request for donating this material. We do not object <br />to this singular request as long as we reserve -the right to consider each <br />future request on its own merit, and vie recommend donation of this material. <br />Since this material is in stack, there will be no direct cost to the <br />County. Funding, therefore, shall be internal from the Road and Bridge Depart- <br />ment surplus stock <br />106 <br />
