Harold Berg addressed the Council on behalf of the Bike Trail Committee, asking that the Council consider doing a portion of the proposed bike trail plan each year, until the proposed trail is complete. Extending the trail from Southwest Eighth Street to the east on Division Street with a loop around the school athletic complex was recommended as the next portion to be done. The area from Southwest Eighth to South First Street was suggested and it was also suggested that the trail run behind the residences on Division Street between Southwest Eighth Street to Southwest Fifth Street. Councilman Reimers stated that it may be a couple years before a trail could be run to the school athletic complex. It was also suggested that Harold work with Matt Beatty to extend and create trail activities. Berg also asked if two Council members could serve on the Bike Trail Committee. Councilman Conklin, already on the committee, and Margaret Liston volunteered to serve.
