Boyceville board discusses DOT‑conditioned crosswalk, coordinates on Highway 79 resurfacing
Summary
Trustees reviewed a DOT preliminary permit for a new crosswalk contingent on curb stops and future sidewalks and heard that MSA estimated the crosswalk at $9,300; MSA will also present options for a force‑main project tied to State Highway 79 resurfacing.
The Village of Boyceville board discussed two street and utility items that trustees said will require coordination with outside agencies and further study.
Police staff reported that the Wisconsin Department of Transportation gave a preliminary indication it would approve a proposed crosswalk, but only if curb stops are installed and with a future requirement for sidewalks. MSA provided a cost estimate of $9,300 for the crossing. Trustees expressed only minor interest in pursuing the crosswalk immediately and directed staff to bring the matter to the Committee of the Whole for further consideration.
MSA also told the board it will present options related to a potential force‑main project that likely needs to be completed before the DOT begins resurfacing work on State Highway 79. Board members and staff discussed sequencing the utility work and the DOT resurfacing so the projects do not conflict. No binding decisions were made; staff were asked to develop options for committee review.
Next steps: the crosswalk proposal and the force‑main options will move to the Committee of the Whole for more detailed cost and sequencing information.
