PURPOSE: To provide authority to issue and sell county tax-exempt limited tax general obligation (LTGO) bonds in an original principal amount not to exceed $2,700,000 to obtain financing for the Meadowdale Beach Park and Estuary Restoration Project.

 

BACKGROUND: These bonds (not to exceed $2,700,000) are being sold to finish the financing of the Meadowdale Beach Park and Estuary Restoration Project.  This project will replace 130 linear feet of railroad embankment, tracks and an undersized culvert with a 5-span railroad bridge addressing public safety issues and providing ADA-accessible beach access, allowing re-establishment of a historic (pre-railroad) pocket estuary for ESA-listed (threatened) juvenile Chinook and restoring multiple nearshore processes; (b) to install additional upgraded park amenities including a foot-wash, picnic tables, benches, new pedestrian bridge for viewing salmon and interpretive signage; and (c) to reinforce the limited ADA access road into the park.
