Aug 13, 2026

Highway staff asked the commission to accept soft-match funds for the Parched Corn at Hunter box culvert project (24-foot opening); the county's 80% share of the roughly $300,000 project is about $240,000, and staff said soft-match credits can be used for future match or sold to other counties.

The full story

Highway staff requested commission approval to accept soft-match credit tied to a box culvert replacement (the Parched Corn at Hunter project). Staff said the project's total cost was just under $300,000 and that the county's 80% portion would be about $240,000; because the opening exceeds 20 feet the structure is classified as a bridge and qualifies for regional bridge soft-match funds.
