Two funding measures were approved for the Harrison Park golf course this week by the Public Works committee.  17 thousand dollars would go for a study on stabilizing the road that goes into the golf course. The river bank alongside the road has slid, making repairs to the road urgent.

Also approved was a 38 thousand dollar  cost for a study and consultation about a new irrigation system in the golf course. City officials say the current system needs frequent repairs and renovation.

The committee also approved a memo of understanding with the state for the plan to repair the I-74 bridge over Griffin Street. The state wants to renovate the bridge at a future date.  The city would agree to close portions of Griffin street while work is underway on the structure. The city would then make some roadway improvements on Griffin Street.

The committee’s action will go to the full city council next week.
