Did Clawson apply for Federal Aid for more than one road? I also recall Clawson receiving Federal Aid last year, what happened to this funding?
Yes, the City applied for funding for Main St. as well. However, a change in rating from 2004 to 2005, that resulted in an “improved” condition rating, removed Main St. from the list of qualifying projects. In fact, many communities found their streets suddenly “improved” from 2004 to 2005. It was determined that as the roads were evaluated, different firms provided different results. Thus, the County has looked at a new evaluation methodology. The new methodology involves use of scientific measurement technology and is expected to remove the subjectivity that comes from evaluations relying on the observations of individuals. While this affected our 2005 application, the City will reapply in the Fall for consideration of funding for the 2010 Federal Aid funding. Yes, the City did receive money for the rehabilitation of 14 Mile Rd. from Crooks to Main St. Because of the very bad condition of the street, the City reapplied for funds to reconstruct this section of road.
