Proposition P: Safe and Accessible Arch and Public Parks Initiative

In April of 2013, the taxpayers of St. Louis City and St. Louis County voted to invest in Proposition P: Safe and Accessible Arch and Public Parks Initiative. Thank you to the citizens who exercised their vote and their voice and to all those who have invested in this project through the 3/16th cent sales tax over the last 18 months. Great Rivers Greenway serves as the proud steward of those funds and has been dedicated to delivering on the promise of returning those funds to the regional economy whenever possible. Project partners have collaborated to achieve the goal of the Prop. P investment, along with private investment; federal, state, and local grants; and partner contributions, staying in St. Louis. The renovation was divided into components to allow many opportunities for local firms to work on this historic project. Partners held pre-bid meetings and offered resources to guide interested firms through the complex task of bidding on work done by multiple partners through multiple types of procurement processes. Local contractors stepped up to put together thorough and competitive plans and delivered. It has paid off. Not only will this project provide a more accessible, sustainable, and vibrant park, its impact is felt throughout the region’s economy. To date, all the projects you’ve seen on the previous pages have been awarded to local contractors and are under or on budget. Gifts to the CityArchRiver Foundation As of August 3, 2015

Realizing this vision for St. Louis calls upon each of us. CityArchRiver Foundation is leading a $250 million fundraising campaign to cover $221 million in design and construction costs and provide $29 million to assure improvements are sustained when the project is complete. The campaign has raised more than $237.7 million to date and turns to the community now to finish the task. The CityArchRiver Foundation extends deep appreciation to the members of the Keystone Society and Founders’ Circle for their generous support of the CityArchRiver campaign.* Thank You.
