County sets aside match for potential signal preemption grant covering 30 unincorporated intersections
Summary
Staff asked and the committee approved setting aside local match funding for a Bipartisan Infrastructure Law project to install signal preemption for public safety vehicles; staff said the county's match would be proportionate and cover about 30 signals in unincorporated Horry County if the grant is awarded.
A staff member asked the Administration Committee to set aside county match funding for a prospective grant application under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to provide signal preemption capabilities for public-safety vehicles on US 17 and US 501. The staff presentation said the county's match would be proportionate to the number of signals in unincorporated Horry County and that "which would be 30 if this is funded." The committee approved the set-aside by voice vote.
Staff framed the request as preparatory: the match allocation would be reserved pending a positive funding decision and would apply only to signals in unincorporated portions of the county. Committee members offered no recorded objections and the item passed without roll-call tally in the transcript.
