The Lynden City Council approved a professional services agreement with Reichhardt & Ebe Engineering to complete a feasibility study for the 1st and Graver Street intersection. The study will evaluate feasibility, right-of-way implications and approximate costs for adding a dedicated left-turn lane on the north leg; the contract is capped at $49,879.81. The Public Works Committee reviewed and recommended the agreement; the council authorized the mayor to sign after a 7-0 vote.

The meeting transcript uses both "Graver" and "Grover" when referring to the intersecting street; record-keeping should use the correct local street name (Graver) or clarify the intended location before final engineering work begins. The study will inform whether right-of-way acquisition or design changes are necessary and provide a cost estimate for potential construction.
