Council discusses TIB grant applications for Mill Street reconstruction
Summary
City staff reported two TIB grant applications tied to the city's six-year street plan, including a total-reconstruction project for Mill Street and Railroad (grind-and-overlay) that, if awarded, would target 2027 for work.
City staff said they applied for two Transportation Improvement Board grants tied to the city's six-year street plan, identifying Mill Street and Railroad as the highest-scoring candidate. A staff member described the proposed scope as "a total reconstruction of Mill Street And Railroad, and that would be a grind and overlay, type project," telling the council that any awards would be for 2027 if the grants are approved.
Council and staff also discussed an intersection safety issue at Mill and 2nd Street where line-of-sight concerns persist. Staff said one DOT-proposed option is to convert the intersection to a four-way stop, which would address visibility without requiring property alterations. The council asked staff to await Transportation Improvement Board and DOT responses to the applications and to bring options back for council consideration.
