The City of Salina has announced a special Salina City Commission meeting for this afternoon.
The Salina City Commission is scheduled to meet at 1 p.m. Wednesday in room 105 of the City-County Building, 300 W. Ash Street, for discussion and possible action regarding the city’s pending application for $24.9 million in funding from Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) 2022 grant funds for the Old Smoky Hill River Bridge Replacement Project.
The meeting is in response to an email received Tuesday from the U.S. Department of Transportation requesting confirmation by 5 p.m. EST Wednesday of the availability of additional matching funds or a reduction in project scope such that the project could be completed if the project were to receive a $20.1 million RAISE award.
A meeting notification, agenda, and related information will be posted to the city’s website prior to the meeting.
