Commissioners approve waiver for Wenatchee Creek Bridge reimbursement; construction targeted for 2028
Summary
Asotin County approved termination of a RATA reimbursement and waiver of payback for the Wenatchee Creek Bridge Replacement (Grande Ronde Road); county staff said design is complete and construction is estimated for 2028, and commissioners discussed seeking funding help from Wallowa County.
County Engineer and Public Works Director Joshua Malkin presented a request to terminate RATA reimbursement and waive payback for the Wenatchee Creek Bridge Replacement (Grande Ronde Road). The transcript records that design work is complete and the new request is for construction only, which is "estimated for 2028." Vice-Chair Brian Shinn moved to approve the request and the motion was recorded as carried.
Chair Chris Seubert suggested approaching neighboring Wallowa County for assistance in funding, noting this bridge is the only access to Troy, Oregon. The Board approved the termination and waiver as recorded; the transcript does not list a dollar amount, grant source, or final construction contract details.
