57. IGA WITH CITY OF GOODYEAR FOR MARICOPA TRAIL SEGMENT 35 Approve an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between the City of Goodyear (City) and Maricopa County through the Maricopa County Parks Department (County) for a portion of Maricopa Trail Segment 35. This IGA will establish a partnership between the County and City to construct a multi-modal trail section as an alternative transportation route through the west valley communities from Estrella Mountain Regional Park to White Tank Mountain Regional Park. This IGA also provides for the County’s Director of Parks and Recreation or designee with the authority and charged with the responsibility for proper administration of the Agreement. Maricopa Trail Segment 35 is a connecting piece of the Maricopa Trail between Estrella Mountain Regional Park and White Tank Mountain Regional Park through neighboring jurisdictions. The route will follow the Yuma road alignment from the western City boundary to the Bullard Wash. It will then follow the Bullard Wash from Yuma road south to the Gila River, as described by the attached “Trail Map”, Exhibit A. It will follow the northern bank of the Gila River to the bridge on Estrella Parkway. It will cross over the bridge to Vineyard road. It will continue on the north side of Vineyard road inside the right-of-way to the entrance road to Estrella Mountain Regional Park. It will then follow the park roadway to the nature center. These corridors will create an off-street multimodal trail opportunity as part of the County’s Trail within the City’s corporate boundaries. This item is located in Supervisorial District 4.
