Frank stating there were not enough funds to start a study so it was decided to form a coalition of interested parties to partner with and to help fund the project. The Mayor invited the other cities, both counties and other stakeholders to the fast meeting. This project involves four cities, two counties, and three other MoDot routes. MoDot offered to lead the job and to perform the environmental work at no cost to the cities as this reduced the costs for the cities in half, approximately. After this offer was made, the general belief was that the cities could fund the remaining portion of the study which is $369,000. Allocations of the $369,000 were discussed at the next meeting, Kansas City, Missouri's portion calculated out to be $155,000, Riverside approved their fund's at $130,000 and Northmoor's portion of the costs. Gladstone said they would try to allocate $20,000 and it was suggested the remaining costs originally allocated to Gladstone be split three ways, KCMo, Riverside and MoDot and all agreed to try to advance this concept with their various organizations. Gladstone this week, approved their $20,000, leaving a balance of $64,000 for the three parties to split. Northmoor has no funds, MoDot will build their portion (northern) of the highway. Alderman Looker asked about Mr. Garney's participation. Frank said Mr. Garney is willing to participate (Briazcliff and Garney) and will put money on constmction. Frank said Briazcliff has a (TIF) with Kansas City, Missouri, but he hasn't seen it yet. Frank says he hopes to begin the study in 30-60 days, as the study will take approximately twelve months to complete.
