Rossville approves construction‑inspection commitment for Community Crossings grant despite cost concerns

Rossville voted to approve a construction‑inspection contract with BFNS so the town can meet a state requirement for a Community Crossings grant application. Staff said the state requires a pre‑approved inspection contractor and that a construction inspection up to an estimated $30,000–$32,000 may be a locally borne cost that reduces the grant’s net benefit; nevertheless staff warned that failure to commit an inspector could jeopardize the grant.
