Blue Ridge authorizes up to $500,000 for additional street paving
Summary
Public works reported roughly $500,000 in surplus and recommended a prioritized list of roads for paving; the council voted to authorize up to $500,000 and allowed the list to be modified as needed.
The council authorized up to $500,000 to fund additional street paving projects after a presentation from public works (Denny Cook). Cook told the council he had a recommended list of roads and that some items could be modified as pricing becomes available. He asked the council to approve the $500,000 authorization and permitted staff to adjust the list later.
A council member moved to approve the $500,000 authorization to continue street paving; that motion was seconded and the council took a roll-call vote that recorded affirmative votes by the members present, including the member participating by phone. The transcript indicates the money had been included in the existing budget.
Council members discussed specific road segments and acknowledged some items lacked finalized pricing; the approved authorization allows staff to modify the project list to reflect updated estimates and priorities.
