Clintonville Area Commission

The route is a concept at this time, the graphic is the working plan. You will see it’s general. But given what is known, it shows the most direct solution and the one to start with. It takes a lot of public involvement and engineering time to vet alternatives and work through the tough spots. So, IF the project is funded, the Rec’s & Parks Dept will start the hard survey and analysis phase.
