The Port Wing Town Board discussed plans to begin blacktop work on Grand Avenue next week and the need to identify and repair sections damaged by utility installations.
Minutes report that a member who attended a Local Road Improvement Program (LRIP) meeting indicated there may be $308,000 in 50/50 funds available for improvements. The board said it will solicit bids for patching and repairs where utilities have disturbed pavement. Members also raised the possibility of repairing Wisconsin Avenue to preserve an emergency helicopter landing area, though no decision or funding commitment was made at the meeting.
The board did not adopt a formal contract at the meeting; instead members agreed to obtain bids and pursue available LRIP funding as appropriate.
