Levy County commissioners voted to approve an interlocal agreement supporting the City of Williston's application to the Florida Department of Transportation small counties outreach program to pave Airport Road.
Don Clifton of the county Road Department told commissioners the project covers the section of Airport Road from State Road 121 north to 25th Street and said "about 2,600 linear feet of that is maintained by the county" while "the remaining 2,300 linear feet is maintained by the city." Clifton presented the interlocal agreement that would let the city pursue FDOT funding with county cooperation.
The item was approved after a motion announced by the chair: the commission recorded a motion by Commissioner Desiree Mills and a second by Commissioner Rob Meeks; the chair called for the vote and the motion passed. Earlier in the discussion the chair noted the matter "has been going on over 2 years," signaling the project has a multiyear history in the county record.
The agreement, as presented by Clifton, would allow the city and county to coordinate on the grant application and, if awarded, the paving work on the sections each jurisdiction maintains. The transcript does not record the exact dollar amount sought in the FDOT application, timetable for the work, nor a detailed funding split; those details were not specified in the record and will depend on the grant award and subsequent interlocal terms.
Next steps: staff will execute the interlocal paperwork and proceed with the grant application process in coordination with the City of Williston, subject to FDOT review and approval.
