Martin Kidston(Missoula Current) Citing gaps in the Great American Trail as it crosses portions of western Montana, members of the Missoula City Council on Wednesday approved an agreement with several other counties to pursue funds to plan for the trail's completion.City officials said that applying for a RAISE planning grant won't jeopardize Missoula's chances of landing a larger RAISE grant to complete any number of transportation project using funding from the same federal program.'The planning grants are typically a separate pool of funding from the infrastructure grants,' said city transportation planner Aaron Wilson.
