The Public Service Committee will review this matter.
CONCLUSION:
IDOT is responsible for initial payment of construction costs and will then invoice the City of Joliet for the local share of these costs. The City’s share of funding for construction of this project will come from local Motor Fuel Tax (MFT) funds. The State of Illinois requires the Mayor and City Council to approve a Funding Resolution when utilizing MFT funds.
