County staff outline two bridge grant applications, including a $884,000 off-system request
Summary
Sedgwick County staff described two bridge grant applications: Item Q is an $884,000 off-system construction grant (federal FY27) and Item R is a roughly $705,000 construction grant requiring about $113,803 in county cash match toward a packet-listed total project of about $1,064,000.
Tom summarized two grant applications on the consent agenda for bridge projects and called on Lynn to explain terms. For Item Q, Tom said the request was for $884,000 in off-system bridge funding. Lynn explained Item Q is a construction grant anticipated in federal fiscal year 2027 and said it would be a 100% construction grant for construction and construction engineering.
On Item R Lynn said the construction grant application is for "a little over 705,000" and that the county cash match would be approximately $113,803; packet materials listed the total project cost as roughly $1,064,000. Lynn emphasized that the grants cover construction and construction engineering only and typically exclude right-of-way acquisition and design.
When the chair asked about matching requirements, Lynn said Item R is an 80/20 split for construction and construction engineering while Item Q is 100% for construction. Commissioners did not take a vote during the agenda review; the grants remain on the consent agenda for the public meeting.
