Commissioners approve $25,000 benefit-cost analysis for US-411 BUILD grant bid
Summary
County engineer proposed and commissioners approved a $25,000 consultant proposal to develop a benefit-cost analysis for a portion of US Highway 411 to support the county's BUILD grant resubmission; staff said the analysis will be completed in time for the application.
Dan Dahlke, the county engineer, told commissioners the county needs a benefit-cost analysis for a portion of US Highway 411 to strengthen its BUILD grant application. He said a consultant proposed to complete the study for $25,000 and guaranteed delivery in time for the application.
Commissioners moved to authorize contracting for the analysis and to handle any necessary budget amendment; the motion passed. Commissioner discussion focused on timing and whether the county should proceed with a budget amendment to cover the consultant fee.
The engineering office said the analysis will accompany the next BUILD grant submittal and inform project prioritization on the county's transportation improvement list.
