City authorizes Bolton & Menk to apply for state LIRP grants for 1st and 9th Streets
Summary
Council authorized Bolton & Menk to prepare LIRP grant applications for 1st Street ($1.8M project; $1.4M grant request) and 9th Street ($1.6M; $1.3M grant request) and approved payment of $3,000 and $7,000 in preparation fees.
Bolton & Menk proposed applying for Local Road Improvement Program (LIRP) grants for two projects: a 1st Street project with an estimated cost of $1.8 million and a grant request of $1.4 million (city share estimated at about $400,000), and a 9th Street project estimated at $1.6 million with a $1.3 million grant request (city share estimated about $300,000). The council authorized the engineering firm to prepare and submit both grant applications and approved $3,000 and $7,000 fees to cover preparation costs.
Mayor Jim Kreemer moved to authorize Bolton & Menk to proceed with the 1st and 9th Street LIRP grant submissions; the motion passed unanimously. Council members said the grants offer a significant opportunity to leverage state funds for necessary street work.
