The city of Jordan is reapplying for a grant it failed to receive last year from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
If the city is successful, the DNR’s local trail connection program would provide a 50-50 matching grant for a proposed trail system that includes a proposed trail along County Road 66 (aka Old Highway 169) in Jordan that recently escalated in price by about $20,000.
City Planner Casey MacCallum said a retaining wall is necessary along a segment of the county road.
Jordan successfully earned a Safe Routes to School grant this year, so City Engineer Carol Caron asked the city council if it would like to apply again.
The Jordan City Council unanimously voted to deny a request for a crosswalk on Hope Avenue, between Hope Lutheran Church and the Minnesota River Valley Special Education Cooperative school.
It's 5 p.m. on March 5, and I get some hair-brained idea that I should take advantage of the beautiful weather and take a walk in the park.
