The Atlantic City Council, Wednesday evening, is expected to act on approving an Engineering Agreement with Snyder and Associates Engineers, for the City’s 2016 Street and Alley Improvement Project. The meeting at City Hall, begins at 5:30-p.m.

The total cost of the projects is estimated at $1.4-million, of which, according to City Administrator John Lund, $1.09-million is coming from the upcoming bond. Another $500,000 will flow into the Capital Improvement Street fund as a transfer from the Local Option Sales Tax (LOST) fund. Any surplus funds will be directed to handle change orders, and anything remaining from that point will be moved into the 2017 Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) Fund, to reduce future bonding needs and save interest costs.
