County seeks KDOT cost‑share to add signal on Oliver near Spirit campus; staff expects to cover ~70%
Summary
Public works staff said the county will apply for a KDOT cost‑share grant to add traffic signalization on Oliver near the Spirit campus; staff estimates the grant would provide roughly 70% of project funding and the county would proceed with the project regardless of grant outcome.
Lynn (S6) told commissioners the county is preparing a KDOT cost‑share application to add signalization on Oliver just north of McArthur near the Spirit campus. "We're covering about 70% of the cost of the project," Lynn said, describing the grant as the primary strategy to reduce local expense for the signalization work.
Lynn said staff will submit the application at the end of the week and that the effort was discussed with each commissioner in advance. Commissioners asked whether the project would proceed without the grant; Lynn said the county has an agreement to move forward even if the grant is not received, but noted the grant improves the economic case for the chosen option.
