Managers Report
The funds that are earmarked for the Red Road beautification and
safety project originate from the PTP fund, which requires a specific
contract be approved by CITT and the BCC. Currently, the County
does not have a PTP approved contract to begin the work,
however, staff is working on establishing a new contract, which
should enable the County to issue a notice to proceed to the
selected contractor in October 2017.
