Board approves $168,000 in CIB funding for downtown station design, authorizes agreement with NICTD
City staff asked the board to approve a $168,000 allocation from the Capital Improvement Board for design services and railroad coordination by DCCM Engineers related to the downtown station project, and also presented an agreement with the Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District for construction coordination.

A board member said the package had been approved in substantial conformity several weeks earlier and asked for final approval so the city could return documents to NICTD's counsel. The board moved, seconded and approved the funding and the agreement as presented.

Staff asked that city legal staff return the signed agreement to counsel for NICTD so the district can proceed with next steps.
