Please include type of project(acquisition of land, development of new facilities, renovation of existing facilities or a combination thereof). Describe new type of outdoor recreation opportunities/capacities and short and long term benefits of this project. Please refer to Application Guidelines for additional required narrative information. This project will construct a key connection of the Missouri Riverfront Trail (MRT) in Platte County. The 0.5 mile section is one of the missing links to tie the Missouri River cities of Riverside and Parkville together. Currently,there is no safe,non-motorized access between the two River cities. Once the 0.5 mile section is constructed, trail users will access an 800 foot stretch of right-of-way to complete the connection. We expect construction of this 0.5 mile section to be complete by December of 2016. This segment will complete an important section of this missing link, increasing recreational opportunities for citizens as well as visitors to the area. Not only will an essential connection be made on the MRT, but with the MRT's connections to other trails and park facilities, the recreation opportunities for pedestrians and bicyclists will be even greater. Last year, Platte County in partnership with the City of Parkville, constructed an additional two miles of connector trails on the west end of the MRT. The City of Riverside has also constructed portions of the Line Creek Greenway that will be connected to the MRT by_. This missing link will therefore create an expanded trail system of miles. Trails are a great way to improve citizen access and interest in recreational opportunities. This accessible trail will be accessed by people of all ages and abilities. As trail users have the positive experience of a safe trail and opportunities to interact with nature,they will also be given the opportunities to see and connect to surrounding recreational amenities. The immediate benefit of constructing this essential link will be to further the connection between the two cities and greatly increase the recreational opportunities available to their citizens and visitors. The long tern benefits of the project include more access for all trail visitors as the trail system continues to expand along the Missouri River and up the Line Creek and Brush Creek Greenways. Not only is the trail a key connector between the two cities, but for the County and region as well. With the existing mileage either built or planned within the next five years, this connection will provide a mile loop around the southern portion of Platte County. REQUIRED: Include expected completion date. 6f boundary map to include location of facilities to be developed Please respond to the following questions in the space provided. Please keep the application pages together. Documentation is required for some questions, as noted. Where support documentation is required, please attach the supporting materials in an appendix. Reference the application section letter and/or number in your documentation. In Sections B through J, points are awarded as indicated. FY 2015 Application Land&Water Conservation Fund 2 Bl. Outdoor Recreation Need As noted in the SCORP,trails are gateway activities that aid people in beginning to participate in recreation and then expanding their participation to the other recreational resources that they see are available to them. In 2009, Platte County updated their Park System Master Plan that included a statistically valid citizen survey. Survey input showed the highest visitation by recreation facility type was 48%for trails. The survey also showed that 75%of citizens were supportive of developing additional trails.Additionally,the SCORP shows the importance of trails in increasing outdoor activity of youth and older adults. B2. Organizational Involvement Provide documentation as to how organizations in your community are working together to expand local participation in _ recreation. 10 points There are numerous ways that organizations in Riverside are working together to expand local participation in outdoor recreation. Some of these include: 1) Trail Planning and Construction: Riverside, Parkville, and Platte County are working on coordinated efforts to plan and construct trails. As members of our Mid-America Regional Council (MARC)we are all actively working on completing the MetroGreen trails system by planning and constructing the trails within our jurisdictions that will connect our region. 2) Outdoor Programming: The cities of Riverside and Parkville annually coordinate with community organizations such as our chambers of commerce, business associations, and non- profit organizations to plan over 30 programs and festivals in our parks. 3) Platte County Outreach Grant Program: This annual grant provides opportunities for Riverside and other organizations in our community to receive grants for outdoor recreation construction and programming. Not only does this increase the quantity of available amenities, but various community groups come together to apply, improving collaboration on projects and programs. 4) Other Riverside efforts? B3. Walkable Communities Provide documentation as to how your community is currently,or planning to develop, a walkable community. (Walkable communities are thriving, livable,sustainable places that give their residents safe transportation choices and improved quality of life). 30 points Attached to this application is a map of the existing and planned Riverside trail system. As illustrated by the map,we have made significant progress in constructing an interconnected system of trails and sidewalks through the City. City ordinances also require sidewalks to be constructed with all new development. The major portion of the city currently under development is the Horizons area south of Hwy 9 and north of 1-635. All new development in this area will have sidewalks, creating ideal connections to the trail system and this project. Cl. Public Meetings See attached meeting minutes.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATION QUESTIONS(10 points) El. Environmental Protection/Natural Resources B. The most important conservation aspect of this project is that it will permanently protect the riparian zone of the Missouri River in this area. The surrounding area is zoned industrial and preserving this corridor prevents further development and ensures that it will always be a natural, riparian corridor. The size of the easement area is 1.5 acres. However, because the easement divides the industrial property from the remaining riparian area it will create a protective zone that will virtually keep all 4 acres of the riparian corridor protected. E2. Health Benefits Is your community actively involved with your local health care providers or organizations to encourage outdoor recreation/exercise? Please explain this involvement.Documentation is required. Yes 5 points-No 0 points Riverside partnerships Platte County Community Center Partnerships Other efforts? E3. Past Project Administration The City of Riverside has not previously received a LWCF grant. F. EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS(14 points) A. Did you receive LWCF funding last year? No B. Applicant has never received Land and Water Conservation Fund grant. The City of Riverside has not previously received a LWCF grant. C. Within the last two years, has the application project site been declared by the federal government a Federal Disaster site? No Answers for El-F must fit on page 7. G. AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT(10 points) http://www.access-board.gov/guidelines-and-standards/recreation-facilities,and http://www.ada.gov/regs20lO/2010ADAStandards/2010ADAsta ndards.htm, Documentation is required.

Platte County's commitment to fund this important trail connection for the City of Riverside represents a substantial financial contribution. Platte County is also committed to... FY 2015 Application Land& Water Conservation Fund 8 I. PROJECT JUSTIFICATION FOR IMMEDIATE NEED: (No points given for this answer but could be a deciding factor if there is a tied score) Explain why there is an immediate need for this project. There is an immediate need for this project because it is the only safe pedestrian and bicycle connection between the cities of Riverside and Parkville. The cities are currently separated by industrial development with the main connection road being State Highway 9. Walking or riding a bicycle along the shoulders of this highway is allowed but is not as safe as a separated trail. Another justification for immediate need is that the private property owner has recently expressed their support for the project by providing the required permanent easement. Though the easement is in perpertuity, we feel it is important for the property owner to see quick progress as this demonstrates our commitment to them to build the trail in a timely manner. 11. RESUBMISSION OF PAST PROJECT This is not applicable. This project has not previously been submitted. J. LWCF PROMOTION The City of Riverside has planned several ways to promote this project. With each promotion we will highlight the contribution of the LWCF grant in accomplishing the project. Below is an approximate timeline for promotion efforts: April 2016: Press Release Announcing Award of LWCF Funding June 2016:Groundbreaking for project with Press Release October 2016: Grand Opening/Ribbon Cutting for project with Press Release June 2017: Host a National Trails Day Event highlighting this section of the trail.

We will specifically highlight how this project helps with protection of natural resources, encouraging healthy lifestyles and activities for youth and children. 3) Connect community needs with the benefits of outdoor recreation. In all of the promotional efforts for this project, the City of Riverside will communicate how the benefits of this project are meeting their needs. 4) Promote the importance of funding outdoor recreation. —In our communication with the public about this project we will also connect the need for continued support of outdoor recreation funding. Support Trails and Walkable Communities(see page 111) 1) Ongoing trail inventory. The City of Riverside will support SCORP in this effort by providing trail data to expand the database. 2) Support activities of statewide Trail Alliance. We are pleased that the state is providing an ongoing database of trail information as this is helpful in showing the extent of available trails to our community. 3) Encourage local officials to build walkable communities. One of the City's main efforts over the past several years has been to build an interconnected network of trails and sidewalks. 11. List all source(s) and amounts of financial match to the LWCF federal share of the project. The value of the match can consist of cash, donation, and in-kind contributions. The federal LWCF share and financial matches must result in a viable outdoor recreation area and not rely on other funding not mentioned here. Other federal resources may be used as a match if specifically authorized by law. Source Type of Match Value $ 12. Is this LWCF project scope part of a larger effort not reflected on the SF-424 (Application for Federal Assistance)and grant agreement? If so, briefly describe the larger effort, funding amount(s) and source(s). This will capture information about partnerships and how LWCF plays a role in leveraging funding for projects beyond the scope of this federal grant. 4 1010112013 This project is part of a larger trail system linking multiple cities and organizations to create an interconnected trail system in Platte County. Not only will it connect to trails in Platte County, but also a regional trail system for the Kansas City metropolitan area. Millions of dollars have been and will be spent on completing this network. The funds come from a variety of sources including city and county budgets, parks and recreation sales taxes, development fees, etc. 13. List all required federal, state, and local permits/approvals needed for the proposal and explain their purpose and status. We have secured floodplain permits from the City of Riverside and the City of Parkville. We do not expect a land disturbance permit to be required as the project will be disturbing less than one acre. Step 5. Summary of Previous Environmental Review (Including E.O. 12372-Intergovernmente Review) To avoid duplication of effort and unnecessary delays, describe any prior environmental review undertaken at any time and still viable for this proposal or related efforts that could be useful for understanding potential environmental impacts. Consider previous local, state, federal (e.g. HUD, EPA, USFWS, FHWA, DOT)and any other environmental reviews. At a minimum, address the following: 1. Date of environmental reviewls). purpose for the environmental reviews) and for whom they were conducted. The Missouri Department of Nafural Resources"Btownfie'idslVolunfary'�p Program (BVCP) reviewed the report titled ConocoPhillips Missouri Risk-Based Corrective Action (MRBCA) Tier 2 Evaluation dated December 19, 2006. 2, Description of the proposed action and alternatives. The above referenced report indicated that petroleum constituents were detected at concentrations below all applicable Tier 1 RBTLs. Two groundwater-monitoring wells were impacted with petroleum constituents above Tier 1 levels. ConocoPhillips voluntarily remediated the site. In 2011 when Riverside, Parkville, and the County began to look at this property as an option for continuing the trail corridor, the MDNR stated that the site had been cleaned to a standard suitable for public use for parks and trails. 3. Who was involved in identifying resource impact issues and developing the proposal including the interested and affected public, government agencies, and Indian tribes. The prop Missouri Department of Natural Resources. 4. Environmental resources analyzed and determination of impacts for proposed actions and alternatives. 5. Any mitigation measures to be part of the proposed action. The site was mitigated and the MDNR stated that no further action was necessary. On May 15, 2007 a certificate of completion was issued by the MDNR to ConocoPhillips. 6. Intergovernmental Review Process (Executive Order 12372): Does the State have an Intergovernmental Review Process? Yes No X If yes, has the LWCF Program been selected for review under the State Intergovernmental Review Process? Yes No_. If yes, was this proposal reviewed by the appropriate State, metropolitan, regional and local agencies, and if so, attach any information and comments received about this proposal. If proposal was not reviewed, explain why not. Don't need to answer these because first question was pre-filled for us. 7. Public comment periods (how long, when in the process, who was invited to comment)and agency response. 8. Any formal decision and supporting reasons regarding degree of potential impacts to the human environment. 5 IWM013 9. Was this proposed LWCF federal action and/or any other federal actions analyzed/reviewed in any of the previous environmental reviews? If so, what was analyzed and what impacts were identified? Provide specific environmental review document references This proposed LWCF federal action was discussed with the MDNR in 2011 when Riverside, Parkville, and Platte County began discussing this project. The MDNR stated that the site had been cleaned to a standard suitable for public use for parks and trails. Use resource impact information generated during previous environmental reviews described above and from recently conducted site inspections to complete the Environmental Screening Form (ESF) portion of this PD/ESF under Step 6. Your ESF responses should indicate your proposal's potential for impacting each resource as determined in the previous environmental review(s), and include a reference to where the analysis can be found in an earlier environmental review document If the previous environmental review documents contain proposed actions to mitigate impacts, briefly summarize the mitigation for each resource as appropriate. The appropriate references for previous environmental review document(s) must be documented on the ESF, and the actual document( the submission for NPS review. 6 10/01/2013 Step 6. Environmental Screening Form (ESF) This portion of the PD/ESF is a - -- w i NI:a-_ompany the proposa "su fssioh oche . By completing the ESF, the project sponsor is providing support for its recommendation in Step 7 that the proposal either. 1. meets criteria to be categorically excluded (CE)from further NEPA review and no additional environmental documentation is necessary; or 2. requires further analysis through an environmental assessment(EA) or an environmental impact statement(EIS). An ESF alone does not constitute adequate environmental documentation unless a CE is recommended. If an submis If an EIS may be required, the State must request NPS guidance on how to proceed. The scope of the required environmental analysis will vary according to the type of LWCF proposal. For example, the scope for a new LWCF project will differ from the scope for a conversion. Consult the LWCF Manual for guidance on defining the scope or extent of environmental analysis needed for your LWCF proposal. As early as possible in your planning process, consider how your proposal/project may have direct, indirect and cumulative impacts on the human environment for your type of LWCF action so planners have an opportunity to design alternatives to lessen impacts on resources, if appropriate. When used as a planning tool in this way, the ESF responses may change as the proposal is revised until it is ready for submission for federal review. Initiating or completing environmental analysis after a decision has been made is contrary to both the spirit and letter of the law of the NEPA. The ESF should be completed with input from resource experts and in consultation with relevant local, state, tribal and federal governments, as applicable. The interested and affected public should be notified of thea and be invited to participate in scoping out the proposal (see LWCF Manual Chapter 4). of the affected area must be conducted by individuals who are familiar with the type of affected resources, possess the ability to identify potential resource impacts, and to know when to seek additional data when needed. SO the completed ESF must justify the NEPA pathway that was foll CE recommendation, production of an EA, or production of an EIS The resource topics and issues identified on the ESF for this proposal must be presented and analyzed in an attached EA/EIS. Consult the LWCF Manual for further guidance on LWCF and NEPA. The ESF contains two parts that must be completed: Part A. Environmental Resources Part B. Mandatory Criteria Part A: For each environmental resource topic, choose an impact estimate level (none, negligible, minor, exceeds minor) that describes the degree of potential negative impact for each listed resource that may occur directly, indirectly and cumulatively as a result of federal approval of your proposal For each impacted resource provide a brief explanation of how the resource might be affected, how the impact level was determined, and why the chosen impact level is appropriate. If an environmental review has already been conducted on your proposal and is still viable, include the citation including any planned mitigation for each applicable resource, and choose an impact level as mitigated. If the resource does not apply to your proposal, mark NA in the first column. Add any relevant resources (see A.24 on the ESF) if not included in the list. Use a sebat� sheet to briefly clarify how each resource could be adversely impacted: any direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts that may occur, and any additional data that still needs to be determined. Also explain any planned mitigation already addressed in previous environmental reviews. Part B: This is a list of mandatory impact criteria that preclude the use of categorical exclusions. If you answer "yes" or "maybe' for any of the mandatory criteria, you must develop an EA or EIS regardless of your answers in Part A. Explain all "yes' and "maybe" answers on a separate sheet. 7 1010112013 No/Negligible A. ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES Not More Data Needed Indicate potential for adverse impacts.

Recommended NEPA Pathway and State Appraisal/Waiver Valuation First, consult the attached list of"Categorical Exclusions (Ces) for Which a Record is Needed." If you find your action in the CE list and you have determined in Step 6A that impacts will be minor or less for each applicable environmental resource on the ESF and you answered "no" to all of the "Mandatory Criteria" questions in Step 6B, the proposal qualifies for a CE. Complete the following "State LWCF Environmental Recommendations" box indicating the CE recommendation. If you find your action in the CE list and you have determined in Step 6A that impacts will be greater than minor or that more data is needed for any of the resources and you answered "no" to all of the "Mandatory Criteria" questions, your environmental review team may choose to do additional analysis to determine the context, duration, and intensity of the impacts of your project or may wish to revise the proposal to minimize impacts to meet the CE criteria. If impacts remain at the greater than minor level, the State/sponsor must prepare an EA for the proposal. Complete the following "State Environmental Recommendations" box indicating the need for an EA. If you do not find your action in the CE list, regardless of your answers in Step 6, you must prepare arty or EIS.

The soils immediately underneath the trail surface will be compacted to form a solid trail base. We consider this to be a minor impact as it will only affect a narrow strip of land. The contractor will be required to preserve topsoil and redistribute it on site. 7) The work will occur in the Missouri River floodplain. We expect the impacts to be very minor as there will be no rise in the floodplain elevation. 11 1010112013 CITY OF RIVERSIDE q � MISSOURI Upstream from ordinary. 2950 NW Vivion Road Riverside, Missouri 64150 MEMO DATE: 3-13-15 AGENDA DATE: 3-17-15 TO: Mayor& Board of Aldermen FROM: Michael Duffy, Director of Community Development TITLE: Land&Water Conservation Fund Grant Application BACKGROUND: In 2010 when Magellan acquired the Conoco Phillips Tank Farm,the City approved a Special Use Permit allowing the operation of the facility. As one of the conditions attached to the approval, the City required that Magellan work with Riverside, Parkville and Platte County to allow a trail through the property and connecting the Missouri Riverfront Trail (MRT)and English Landing Park. A trail easement that permits the construction of the trail along the south and west property lines has been identified and details for protection of the existing containment dike are being finalized. To date,there has been no budget from any of the governmental entities to construct the trail connection. Recently, Platte County approached Riverside and Parkville about the potential of constructing the trail utilizing funds from the voter approved parks and stormwater sales tax. To leverage these funds, the County is interested in pursuing a matching grant from the Land and Water Conservation Fund. To increase the potential for a successful grant the County has requested that Riverside act as the applicant as the City has not applied for this grant in the past. As a first time applicant,the City will improve its rating over other communities that have received the grant in the past. The County will cover all costs of construction and the cities of Riverside and Parkville will enter into a maintenance agreement with the County for the portions of the trail that are located within their respective communities. This maintenance agreement will be consistent with the current maintenance agreement between Riverside and Platte County for the MRT. The grant application is due March 31 and construction would happen during late summer of 2015. %sK7-r%l r .l'py r'1. 1 - ' UR t#' Jeremiah W.(Jay)Nixon,Governor • Sara Parker Pauley,Director RTh ENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES ,; rrSro www.dnr.mo.gov MDccc%x DEC 3 1 2015 Michael Duffy City of Riverside 2950 NW Vivion Road Riverside, MO 64150 Re: LWCF Project No 29-01631 City of Riverside ADA Missouri Riverfront Trail Dear Mr. Duffy: On behalf of Missouri State Parks and the Department of Natural Resources (DNR), I am pleased to announce that the City of Riverside has been selected as a 2015 grant recipient for the Land and Water Conservation(LWCF) grant program.
