Sperry trustees approve REAP application to fund Phase 3 street paving
Summary
The Sperry Board of Trustees voted unanimously to submit a REAP (INCOG) transportation grant request that includes $175,000 for Phase #3 paving on multiple north and east downtown streets; the project’s projected total is $202,000 with the town covering the remaining cost.
Mayor Robert Morton moved and Vice Mayor Melody Anderson seconded a motion to submit a Rural Economic Action Plan (REAP) transportation grant application to the Indian Nations Council of Governments (INCOG) that includes Phase #3 paving as a primary project. The motion recorded a request of $175,000 for paving on North Coal, North Elgin, North Frankfort, North Garrison, East Ada and East Blair streets; the minutes list the project’s projected total cost as $202,000 with the Town of Sperry responsible for the balance.
The motion passed unanimously (Trustees David Cassidy, Patrick McCotter, Melody Anderson and Mayor Robert Morton voted yes). Trustees also approved that Phase #3 paving be the town’s designated tiebreaker project if REAP scoring results in an application tie. The board did not take separate action at the meeting to authorize local matching funds beyond the motion language in the grant request.
