Summary

County administrators said Platte County will partner with Platte City on a $135,000 downtown infrastructure study led by RDG Consulting and seek public input; commissioners agreed to pay half of the local match.

County Administrator Wes Bender told commissioners the county is a partner with Platte City on a $135,000 grant to study downtown Platte City—s main street infrastructure. RDG Consulting has been hired to conduct public engagement and prepare recommendations, Bender said.

Bender said the county joined the project as a large landowner and to be a "good neighbor." He asked residents to fill out surveys and attend charrettes and open houses. A commissioner thanked the staff member who suggested and helped secure local funding and noted the commission agreed to pay half of the local match for the study.

The county will share information about the consultant—s engagement opportunities online and with local stakeholders as the process moves forward.
