Summary
The Board allocated a not-to-exceed $340,000 for the Safer Southern Railroad project contingent on approval of a Michigan Infrastructure Office grant application; the motion passed unanimously among members present.
Bill Kennis, the county grant writer and project manager, presented the Safer Southern Railroad project and requested local match/commitment contingent on state grant approval. The Board approved an allocation with a Not-To-Exceed amount of $340,000 pending the Michigan Infrastructure Office (MIO) grant application approval.
Commissioner Janice McCraner moved the allocation and Commissioner Nikki Koons seconded; the minutes record the motion as carried with YEAS: 6 and one absence (Machen). The motion ties the county commitment to the outcome of the MIO grant process; no dollar breakdown or project schedule was included in the meeting minutes and further details are pending the grant application outcome.
