7. Request Approval of Bridge Maintenance Agreement

Board of Commissioners Meeting · 2026-06-16 · agenda_item

Clay County is updating a bridge maintenance agreement with the City of Fargo. This agreement covers the Wall Street Bridge (CSAH 22) and the CSAH 12 Bridge (60th Ave S). The agreement is being updated to include specific language required by FHWA due to NDDOT's increased inspection role. This update does not change existing responsibilities or costs. The item is currently under review by the Board of Commissioners and is planned for approval soon. This agreement will set in motion ongoing maintenance and inspection work for these bridges. Contractors specializing in bridge repair, concrete work, and general construction may find opportunities. Suppliers of construction materials and equipment could also be involved. Reaching out to the county engineer's office early could provide insight into future needs before formal bidding processes begin.
