Selectboard approves Pronier Road bridge repair from bridge fund
Summary
The Weybridge Selectboard voted to hire PCI and to cover the estimated repair from the town's bridge fund after highway staff reported an $88,000 estimate and confirmed a roughly $146,000 fund balance.
The Selectboard voted to move forward with a Pronier Road bridge repair to be paid from the town's bridge fund. A highway official reported an $88,000 repair estimate and said the bridge fund has roughly $146,000 available; a board member moved to "contact PCI to repair the Pronier Road bridge with funds from the bridge fund," the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.
Board members said the work should be scheduled as soon as practicable in the spring and that staff will coordinate scheduling and any permitting. "I'll take care of that tomorrow," the highway official said after the vote. Members flagged that grant opportunities would be considered but that this job likely needs to proceed from bridge fund balances. The highway official also reported minor storm impacts to mailboxes and that salt supplies have been replenished.
The vote was taken during the highway report portion of the Jan. 6 meeting. Staff said they will follow up with the contractor for timing and will advise the Selectboard on any changes to the estimate. The board did not record a roll-call tally in the minutes; the motion passed by voice 'Aye.'
