Montgomery County packet includes resolution to resurface Mitchell Young Road
Summary
A county engineering memo in the Montgomery County Commission packet recommends approval of a resolution to resurface 3.7 miles of Mitchell Young Road, to be funded 80% by federal MPO funds and 20% by county gasoline-tax match; ALDOT approval and executed originals are requested.
A memo from George Speake, Montgomery County engineer, placed a resolution in the county commission packet proposing resurfacing of Mitchell Young Road for 3.7 miles beginning at SR‑8 (US‑80) and running north, the memo shows.
Speake said the project would proceed with Alabama Department of Transportation approval and be funded with an 80% federal Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) share and a 20% county match drawn from gasoline-tax revenues. The memo recommends approval of the attached resolution and asks that two copies with original signatures be executed and returned to the Engineering Department.
The memo lists the project as Project No. MCP 51-03-26 in the header but attaches a resolution labeled "Mitchell Young Road Resurfacing MCP 51-01-25," an inconsistency the document does not reconcile. No motion, vote or funding appropriation is recorded in the memo itself; the document appears in the Montgomery County Commission formal session packet dated Dec. 2, 2025 for the commission's consideration.
The resurfacing request is presented as a standard project authorization: scope (3.7 miles), funding split (80% federal MPO; 20% county gasoline tax), and an administrative instruction to prepare signed copies for return to county engineering. The memo does not specify the exact northern terminus beyond "north 3.7 miles," the estimated project cost, construction timeline, or a contract award schedule.
The commission packet lists the resolution for consideration at the Dec. 2, 2025 formal session; the memo recommends approval but does not record a final vote or other action.
