Jackson-Frazier Wetland - Boardwalk Project
Jackson-Frazier Wetland - Boardwalk Project
Benton County Natural Areas, Parks & Events, AFRANA, partners, and volunteers continue the effort to replace the boardwalk. The new boardwalk will follow roughly the same footprint as the existing structure We have been able to complete the environmental and permitting work. Together we have already raised over $1.2 million in state funding and private donations.
The boardwalk continues to deteriorate which makes finding further funding a priority. We continue to work with Congressional, State, and local partners to secure the remaining funding to complete this priority project. We are requesting federal funding to help meet the rising costs of construction.
