Export City Council has approved a contract for federally-funded paving project earlier this week.
The Trib reports that Council unanimously awarded a $93,000 contract to Tresco Paving Corp. for overlay work along Madison and Harrison avenues. The borough’s application for CDBG funding to repair a retaining wall off Fillmore Avenue was rejected by federal officials.
In other business, Mayor Joe Zaccagnini also looked at several options for a new road salt storage area. Last month Zaccagnini proposed using the partial federal American Rescue Plan payment to build a new salt facility. Delissio advised building it a bit larger than necessary because of the predetermined annual salt tonnage the borough agrees to buy. The consensus of council is to put the new facility behind the Italian American Club on property owned by the city.
