Coryell County backs bridge projects, authorizes agreement changes and $23,247 local match

The Coryell County Commissioners' Court on June 23 authorized changes to the Advanced Funding Agreement for the Neff Park Road bridge replacement and approved a resolution supporting funding for bridge improvements on Neff Park Road and Bull Branch Road, including a local match not to exceed $23,247.

Commissioner Kyle Matthews moved to authorize County Judge Roger Miller and County Attorney Brandon Belt to modify the Advanced Funding Agreement; Commissioner Keith Taylor seconded the motion, which the court approved. Separately, the court approved a resolution supporting bridge funding that included a change in the resolution language from "local government owns" to "local government owns or maintains bridges." That resolution was moved by Commissioner Ryan Basham and seconded by Commissioner Keith Taylor; the court recorded approval and authorized a local match of up to $23,247.00.

The minutes list the authorization and the resolution and record attached documents; the transcript does not include detailed project schedules, contractor names, total project budgets, or which state or regional program would provide the matching grant. The court also accepted the Road and Bridge report earlier in the meeting.

No contested roll-call vote totals appear in the transcript; motions were recorded as approved after the named motions and seconds.
