Statement of Purpose
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE: This resolution is to accept a $10,000 gift from the Indigenous Women’s Water Sisterhood.
The contribution is to implement an interpretive component of the Waabizheshikana: The Marten Trail Interpretive Plan. These funds will be used for design and installation services associated with a gathering place along the trail, including interpretive signage.
The location and timing of the improvement will likely coincide with planned 2023 extension of the trail in the vicinity of Munger Landing in association with an EPA/MPCA contaminated sediment remediation project.
