Recreational Trail

BOONE, Iowa---The work was considered unacceptable but the Park Commission and the City Council have taken action to accept the work on the Senholtz Trail adjacent to the Linwood Park Cemetery. The trail was removed during the first phase of the sanitary sewer rehabilitation project. It was replaced last year but the Park Commission refused to accept the work. By contract, the matter went to binding arbitration and the contractor CTI was allowed to walk away at a cost of $25,000. The City Council has voted to direct over $12,000 to the Park Commission to complete seeding and drainage along the trail.
