that addresses were verified and it was noted that all
legislators in 8th and 16th Districts voted against gas tax
except Jeannette Hayner. The Board couldn't understand the vote
of our legislators pertaining to amount of money being released
in our area. First money is going to the Mesa-395 Interchange;
second, is West Richland Bridge/Road construction; third, Lewis
and A Street overpass; fouth, design work on Eltopia-Mesa 4-lane
leg of 395.
The Federal Government has not released any money; therefore,
state monies have to be used to maintain the interstates. The
City of Pasco has to complete designs on the Lewis Street/395
Interchange before it will be built. There is about $8,000,000
State Money in the project.
Bids on Burn Canyon came in about $200,000 under Engineer's
estimate, Inland Empire Highway is being straightened, and
