The Polk County Commissioners met on Tuesday afternoon in Crookston and passed a
resolution to purchase state aid highway bonds for $6,075,000 to be used over
the next three years. “We have looked at this for a while and we have done
it in the past. The $6 million would allow us to do projects earlier than
planned in our five year rotation," said Polk County Board Chairman Craig Buness.
"We can bond for about one percent now and that
is less than the cost of inflation so it makes sense. This opportunity gives us
the time to get upfront on new construction and maintain what roads we have.”
The Commissioners will consider the award of the bonds at their meeting on July
23.
