County approves local shares for two Community Crossings bridge applications
Summary
Vanderburgh County commissioners approved financial commitment letters for two INDOT Community Crossings grant applications, naming local shares of $296,928.66 for Clytes Road Bridge No. 1131 and $512,577.74 for Adler Road Bridge No. 100.
Vanderburgh County commissioners on July 23 approved financial commitment letters to support two Community Crossings grant applications to the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT).
The board approved application 137533 for the Clytes Road Bridge (Bridge No. 1131) and application 13853 for the Adler Road Bridge (Bridge No. 100). At the meeting, a county official said, “we expect our local share of this project to be $296,928.66” for Clytes Road and “we expect our local share for this project to be $512,577.74” for Adler Road. Both motions were seconded and recorded with affirmative votes from the commissioners.
Why it matters: Community Crossings grants fund local bridge and road projects but require a local match. Approving the commitment letters allows county staff to submit the grant applications; final award of federal funds is subject to INDOT and MPO selection processes.
The board did not change the project scopes at the meeting; no amendments to project descriptions were proposed. County staff recorded the motions and confirmed the board’s intent to provide the identified local shares should the grants be awarded.
Next steps: County engineers will complete application submittals to INDOT and await the agency’s call‑for‑projects results.
