Council to consider $509,000 match for VDOT paving on Route 28 between Cockrell and Church
Summary
City staff asked Council to transfer $509,000 from a capital reserve to match $509,000 in state (VDOT) funds to repave Route 28 between Cockrell Road and Church Street; staff said the work is expected this fall and that advancing the project frees future paving dollars for other streets.
City staff asked the City Council to place a proposed fiscal-year 2026 budget amendment (Resolution R2026-45) on a future council agenda to transfer $509,000 from a capital reserve account to match $509,000 in state funds for pavement work on Route 28 between Cockrell Road and Church Street.
Public Works staff said the VDOT SGR match would allow the city to pay for both north- and south-bound lanes on that block and that advancing the work now could free up about $1 million in the FY 2029 paving program for additional residential streets.
