Alderman Jette
So | sponsored this Resolution at the request of the Conservation Commission to which | am the Aldermanic
Liaison. This is a project to restore the Salmon Brook Trail, the section between Ingalls Street and Burke
Street. It is part of the Joyce Park & Wildlife Sanctuary. It is $24,500.00, it is not tax money, it is money that
the Conservation Commission has in its Conservation Fund. This is money that’s accumulated when
developers develop property and need the Conservation Commission to review it, they have to pay a fee and
that money accumulates over the years. So this money is within the jurisdiction of the Conservation Fund but
they need our permission to spend it.
They have come up with this great project, they are teaming up with Student Conservation Association which
has students during the summertime, students who are interested in conservation. They are going to provide
crews that are going to do the labor involved in this project. They also supply tools and some materials and we
are also paying for part of the materials from the Conservation Fund. So it is a great project, it is going to
restore the trail in this very lovely conservation area along Salmon Brook. And the Budget Review Committee
unanimously voted to recommend final passage and | ask for your support.
