Dupont board applies for $50,000 Community Crossing matching grant to rejuvenate town roads
Summary
The Dupont Town Board voted Jan. 14 to apply for the 2025-1 Community Crossing Matching Grant requesting $50,000, with a required 25% local match of $12,500; Clerk/Treasurer Robyn Meek was authorized to sign grant documents and will submit the application by the Jan. 31 deadline.
The Dupont Town Board voted Jan. 14 to apply for a $50,000 Community Crossing Matching Grant to fund road rejuvenation work in town. Member Christine Dicken moved to seek the 2025-1 grant, Member Ford seconded the motion, and the motion carried.
Clerk/Treasurer Robyn J. Meek was appointed by the board to sign the grant application and any related documents and will work with INDOT contact Robert Phillips to submit the application online. The grant application deadline is Jan. 31, 2025.
The board said the town would request $50,000 and provide the required 25% local match of $12,500 to finance resurfacing and rejuvenation work intended to extend the life of town roads. The town has updated its pavement condition ratings through LTAP in preparation for the application.
The application does not obligate the board to a specific contractor; if awarded, the grant would fund restorative work to extend pavement life. The next procedural step is submission of the application by the Clerk/Treasurer; no further local approvals were recorded beyond the authorizing motion at the Jan. 14 meeting.
