Body
WHEREAS, the City of Madison is working with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WDOT) on the reconstruction and realignment of the CTH M (Junction Rd.) and CTH S (Mineral Point Rd.) interchange and;
WHEREAS, as part of that project we support the construction of a bike path on the North side of Mineral Point Road from the underpass with the beltline West toward Junction Road and;

WHEREAS, CARPC staff has concurred with this review;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Common Council hereby approves a minor change to amend the environmental corridor within the Central Urban Service Area of Dane County to remove 0.15 acres of existing and approve the construction of a bike path in this area associated with the reconstruction of the CTH M and CTH S interchange
