Committee approves design task order for Eddings Point boat landing

The Public Facilities Committee approved a task order to Collins Engineers to design improvements and an expansion of the Eddings Point Boat Landing. Staff said the landing is county-owned and heavily used, and the design scope will address parking, access, walking trails, shoreline stabilization and permitting for a possible future pier.

Staff presented a contract cost of $212,000 with a contingency of $21,000 (a little over $233,000) and explained the project will be advanced to county council for contracting and later construction-phase funding as grants or local allocations are identified. The committee approved the design task order with no objection and directed staff to begin grant-seeking for construction funding.
