Finance panel authorizes $459,579.06 CHIPS-funded appropriation for bituminous products
Summary
The Highway Department received authority to spend CHIPS increased funding and rollover funds not previously budgeted, approving a $459,579.06 appropriation for bituminous products funded from Consolidated Highway Aid.
The committee approved a Highway Department appropriation of $459,579.06 to purchase bituminous products, funded by Consolidated Highway Aid. The appropriation reflects increased CHIPS (Consolidated Local Street and Highway Improvement Program) funds and rollover money that were not included in the 2026 budget; Supervisor Smith moved the resolution and it carried with six ayes.
The agenda item cites $278,533.01 in CHIPS increased funding plus $181,046.05 in CHIPS rollover funds as the source of the appropriation. The action permits the county to spend the full CHIPS allocation and rollover on bituminous products for highway work in 2026.
