Douglas County approved participation in the Wisconsin Local Small Structure Improvement Program (LSSIP), a WisDOT program that can reimburse municipalities up to 90% of eligible costs to replace failing small structures between 72 inches and 20 feet. The Transportation and Infrastructure and Administration committees recommended inclusion of all municipalities covered by the county’s Aid to Bridge Policy.

Under the adopted resolution the county will remain consistent with its Aid to Bridge Policy and reimburse eligible municipalities 50% of their balance in the LSSIP.
