The soonest it can be constructed is 1998. 57 RESOLUTION ~2-93 - (cont.) - PWD Smart stated the City of Chubbuck will have to provide the entire cost of preliminary engineering as well as the local match for construction. Our local share will be 7.34~ or 169,000.00 plus preliminary engineering costs. PWD Smart stated it is anticipated that these monies will come from the WalHart tax increment financing scheme.

Federal-Aid Highway Project STP- improvements at Siphon and Hawthorne PWD Smart stated this project has been approved by the State Transportation Board for construction in fiscal year 1995 at an estimated cost of $180,000.00. This project was identified through Bannock Planning's process and secured a high enough rating to be placed on BPO transportation improvement program. This project involves widening the intersection and reconstructing the canal headgate to provide safer turning movements. Bannock County is interested in participating with US. ITD does not want to work through two sponsors and has chosen the City of Chubbuck to be the sponsor of the project. PWD Smart suggested we are not ready to adopt the authorizing resolution and enter into the agreement without completing our negotiations with Bannock County. PWD Smart is working with Terry Bally and Bill Aller at Bannock County. Once we get a commitment from Bannock County and can enter into a joint agreement on their participation in the project we can adopt the resolution, then enter into agreement with ITD. PWD Smart stated he will talk to Fort Hall Irrigation about the project.

The project was approved by the State Transportation Board in February at an estimated cost of $380,000.00, The State is sharing the local match with the City as long as the City does the design work. Expenses associated with the design will be credited to our share of the local match. The City's share of the local match will be 10 percent of the total project cost or $3,800.00. It is anticipated that tax increment revenue from WalMart will be applied toward this project. PWD Smart stated since the Sate and City are cooperating in the local share of the project the State will not require the City to deposit any monies as payment to ITD for its costs associated with preliminary engineering.
