Franklin County commissioners unanimously approved resolution 2026-305 during their Sept. 16 meeting to amend the county's six‑year Transportation Improvement Program and add Pepio Road pavement rehabilitation phase 1, County Engineer Craig Erdman said.
Erdman told the board the county had been awarded $900,000 through the County Road Administration Board (CRAB) local road program; the grant requires a 10% local match so the county would contribute about $100,000. "We scoped it for two miles. This will cover the first mile of that project to to basically overlay it and and make it an all‑weather road," he said. Officials said the project was ranked second statewide in the program's priority list.
No public comments were received for the hearing and the board moved to approve the amendment. County staff noted the funding is being considered for the 2027–2029 biennium and that large projects may span multiple biennia.
