“Multi-frontal assault” for county bridge project

Oconee County and the county’s state “C” Fund Committee have opened talks on the extent to which state monies can be applied to a rural Oconee County-maintained bridge near Salem.  At the direction of County Council, Administrator Amanda Brock and county’s roads and bridges’ official Kyle Reid are scouring the landscape for grants or contributions to pay for a $253 thousand dollar price tag to cover engineering costs on the Crestwood Drive Bridge replacement project.  Brock is hopeful “C” funds will pay the entire engineering services’ price tag.
