Switzerland County Highway Superintendent Dusty Hunt told the Board of Commissioners on March 2 that the county received Community Crossing Matching Grant (CCMG) funds for Bridge #16 in the amount of $608,343.20 and that the county's required match is $152,085.80. Hunt reported the funds were received on March 2 and that right-of-way work is underway for Ridge #16 and Barker Road.
Hunt also described operational details: hauling chips for chip-seal work, a remaining overtime line balance of just over $400, and a discussion about blacktop funding from line 1173 and whether to pursue engineering or a design-build approach. No formal votes were taken on contracting or engineering at the meeting; commissioners received the report and asked staff to proceed with necessary right-of-way and construction planning steps.
The board asked for no immediate action on blacktop or design-build contracting at this meeting; staff will bring cost estimates or quotes when available.
