Chair moves to authorize signature on LPA CN agreement for urban trail project

At a brief meeting, the chair said the State of Indiana sent a contract for an urban trail project and asked members to approve an LPA CN agreement (desk number 21688) so the project can proceed. The chair said the agreement must be returned by June 30.

The chair told those present, "attached to the packet is the LPA CN agreement for the urban trail project with desk number 21688," and asked for approval to proceed. After stating that "Chris has had a chance to review this," the chair said, "I will entertain a motion to allow me to sign the contract." A motion was made, a second was voiced, and the motion was approved; the transcript records vocal assent but does not list individual votes by name.

The transcript also records the chair saying the agreement "must be returned by June 30th." In a subsequent line the chair indicated the project would "proceed with wedding in November" (transcript wording). The record does not clarify the meaning of the word "wedding" in that line; the transcript does not provide further detail about November scheduling.

No additional funding amounts, contractors, or detailed project timeline elements were provided in the record. With no further items raised, the meeting moved toward adjournment.

Next steps recorded in the transcript: return of the signed agreement by June 30 and authorization for the chair to execute the LPA CN agreement to allow the project to proceed.
