County Engineer’s Report
• IDOT Audit Completed
• Snow Removal
• Building Replacement Discussion/Health and Safety Concerns
o Figures given last, did not include a salt storage facility or current material cost. With the new rules of ARPA funding, increased material costs, and a salt storage facility, the Highway Department would request at least 2 million of the ARPA funds. The Highway Department would bond out remaining balance if needed. Anything less than 2 million, the level of service and highway infrastructure would be affected. The continued level of deterioration of the Highway Department facility continues at an alarming rate.
