The county approved the purchase of a 0.7-acre parcel to expand a future community park on the Anderson property, which will improve the park's usable acreage and provide a safer entrance away from a busy intersection. Additionally, officials authorized the initial steps to acquire the right-of-way necessary to connect the Discovery Trail to the Burnt Bridge Creek Trail. This trail extension project, developed in cooperation with the City of Vancouver, will feature a new sidewalk and a rapid flashing beacon to create a safer pedestrian crossing.

1:37:05 Approval to create a capital project and authorize county manager to execute purchase and sale agreement and sign warranty deed. Another closing document on a 0.7 acre located at this address in Vancouver. Thank you chair. Ken later public works director I was going to read that part but you took the thunder from me online is David Stipe, and he will talk us through this one and, and then we'll be available for any questions. Okay, you're on mute. He's looking, he's looking for that mute button. There we go. Well, there we go. I'm, I'm having audio issues I apologize.
1:37:59 Care Marshall, members of the council, as can later mentioned my David Skype on the planning and development manager for the parks and nature division. We're here before you this evening to ask for permission to negotiate a purchase and fail of a point seven acre parcel on the north, east corner of an existing parks and nature parcel that we refer to, either at the Anderson property or the Anderson very property. This is the five acquisition to improve our level of service in this district and address some concurrency issues with PIP funds. The map.
1:38:49 I apologize for the small tech, the math before you shows approximately where the point five point seven acres is again it improves the usable acreage of the future community park on the Anderson property. Typically our community parks are 10 acres or larger. And this property will just be just under 10 acres, following this hopeful acquisition. It also provides improved access to this parcel for the future community park that we're planning to develop there and go to the next slide zooms into the property. The property as I mentioned in the northeast corner of the existing Anderson property, which is two parcels there at the corner, northeast hundred and 82nd Avenue and northeast 83rd Street.
1:39:47 In this area, the intersection of 182nd and 83rd is a non stop right turn, also hundred and 82nd head east on 83rd Street, and the speeds in this area are pretty, pretty fast folks are leaving the urban area and picking up speed to head out into the county
