Federal Highway Bill Proposal Could Streamline Transportation Funding to Municipalities
A proposal is being considered to allow federal transportation funds to flow directly to municipalities (via CAP – the Coordinating Agency for Planning) bypassing the state Department of Transportation (IDOT). This change, if enacted through the 'Build America 250' highway bill, could significantly speed up project timelines by potentially saving six months to a year on allocations and reducing administrative delays, as CAP handles project review and audits.
McDonald Road Resurfacing Projects Contingent on 2030 Funding; Design Engineering to Advance
Two sections of McDonald Road have submitted applications for resurfacing under a contingency program, with construction planned for 2030. To expedite this, the village proposes advancing design engineering to potentially move the projects from contingency to active funding. The Public Works Committee supported this approach. The two sections are identified as west of Route 47 to east of Kendall Road, and east of Quoran to the eastern village limits east of Farland.
