County to accept $3 million CDBG disaster-relief allocation for two bridge replacements
Summary
Economic development staff said Dickson County was allocated $3 million from a Community Development Block Grant disaster-relief set-aside tied to 2021 flooding; the funds are nonmatching and intended to replace the East Piney Road Bridge and the Woods Valley Road Bridge. Commissioners approved a resolution to accept the funds.
Miss Malone, the county's economic development officer, told commissioners that Dickson County has been allocated $3,000,000 from a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) disaster-relief set-aside related to the 2021 floods. Malone said the allocation is nonmatching and that the funds are planned to be used to replace the East Piney Road Bridge and the Woods Valley Road Bridge.
Malone said the money is managed through the CDBG disaster set-aside and noted the funds are coming via FEMA; she asked the commission for a resolution to accept the allocation.
Commissioner Grove moved to accept the CDBG allocation and to place the resolution on the regular session agenda; Commissioner Gray seconded. The commission approved the request by voice vote.
Malone did not present a project schedule or contract awards at the work session; those implementation details were not specified in the packet and will be addressed during the regular session and subsequent project planning.
