Main Canyon Road update: parts delays, CDBG stormwater study and a $1.69 million joint‑highway recommendation
Summary
Council heard a project update for Main Canyon Road: stop‑sign replacements are delayed due to parts procurement, environmental clearance for the CDBG stormwater study is underway with tribal consultation, and the joint‑highway committee recommended a $1,686,900 grant with a $59,100 local match for design and construction sequencing.
Council staff provided a status update on Main Canyon Road work: signage replacements are pending parts (some sourced from overseas), profile grinding is planned for joints along the church section, chip seal and final striping are scheduled with completion targeted by June 30, 2026. The Chair said the parts buyer has been inspecting shipments "any day now for the past 3 months," and the project dates remain subject to weather and temperature requirements.
Staff also reported the environmental document for the CDBG stormwater study has been approved and the contract has been received; field data collection will begin within a week. The state required consultation with Native American tribes: the request was sent to the Shoshone Bannock Scribe on 02/26/2026 with a 30‑day response window before the environmental document is ready for the mayor's signature. The Chair told the council that the joint highway committee recommended $1,686,900 in grant funding with a $59,100 local match for fiscal year 2029, noting that design work could start in the October 2027 window with construction in October 2028 if the joint‑highway process completes.
