Park road plan trimmed at Squaw Creek Park
Linn County Conservation Board will hear a compromise plan Monday to trim a road in Squaw Creek Park to protect wildlife areas. The middle 2000 feet of the mile road would be removed, with two dead end sections becoming parking areas. The plan keeps overall site layout and may allow later completion if a lake is built. The project faces approval by the Conservation Board and Linn Board of Supervisors, who fund it from about 70 000 dollars. Meanwhile a new well, bid accepted from Ralston Well Drilling for 8475 dollars, will replace an inadequate water supply. The state rejection of 88090 dollars in federal funds for park development limits further improvements despite revenue-sharing and county funds.
