Legislature approves funding and capital plan amendments for Oxbow Rossi and Weaver Road bridge replacements
Summary
The Jefferson County Legislature authorized 100% implementation funding for replacement of Oxbow Rossi Road over Broom And Creek and Weaver Road over Skinner Creek, actions that may be eligible for federal and state aid and amend the 2025 county budget and capital plan.
The Jefferson County Legislature authorized the implementation and funding — in the first instance 100% of costs — for two transportation projects: replacement of Oxbow Rossi Road over Broom And Creek and replacement of Weaver Road over Skinner Creek. Both resolutions specify the projects may be eligible for federal aid, state aid or reimbursement from state capital programs and appropriate funds in the 2025 county budget and capital plan.
Legislators voted on the measures by roll call; the motions carried. The Oxbow Rossi Road resolution was considered during a roll call that recorded multiple legislators voting aye, and the Weaver Road replacement similarly passed after a separate roll call. The transcript records numerous names saying "Aye" during the roll calls.
The two projects were presented as part of the county's capital plan and require appropriation of funds at the county level; the resolutions also note potential reimbursement from external aid sources. The minutes do not include detailed engineering specifications, cost totals, or a schedule for construction in the portion of the record provided.
Vote records in the transcript show the following legislators recorded as voting "Aye" during the roll calls associated with the projects: Jarrow; Grant; Freeman; Farris; McBride; Folio; Monticelli; Calarco; Cantwell; Potter; Bartlett Barrop; Nebawanek; Johnson; and others as recorded on the roll call.
