Summary
The council unanimously adopted a resolution authorizing Mayor Josh Gates to enter into a contract to use $1,349,000 awarded by ALDOT to remill and pave Industrial Drive, a high-traffic corridor the mayor described as critical for local commerce and safety.
Jasper Mayor Josh Gates told the council the city has been awarded $1,349,000 from the Alabama Department of Transportation to remill and pave Industrial Drive and asked for authorization to enter the contract to begin the project.
Gates described Industrial Drive as a “key high-traffic area” and characterized the grant award as critical to addressing the road condition. He repeated the award amount for the council and asked for approval to move forward with contracting.
After a motion and second, the council voted by voice to adopt the resolution authorizing the mayor to enter into the contract and begin work on the resurfacing project.
The resolution directs the mayor and staff to execute the contract with ALDOT funding and to proceed with project planning and procurement steps necessary to begin remilling and paving the roadway.
