Council supports NDIT application

District Demo Forest Trail Improvement Project downsized

At its last meeting, District of 100 Mile House councillors support the submission of the Community Halls and Recreation Facilities for a $30,000 funding application to the Northern Development Initiative Trust (NDIT) for the District’s Demo Forest Trail Improvement Project.

In February, council submitted an application to NDIT for the trail improvement upgrade, which was approved.

However, further discussions with other user groups deemed a reduction in the scope of the trail rehabilitation would be appropriate – going from three trail loops to a single loop.

With it being late in the construction season and the change in the project, it was decided to postpone the work until next year.

It was noted the NDIT indicated it would accept a new application provide 70 per cent funding rather than 50 per cent, which was previously approved.
