The federal share of that estimate would be $6,811,000, but federal approval has been obtained for only $4,130,000 because of the original request.
Commission receives confirmation of Clinton Parkway contract bid
This leaves a wage of $2,681,000 in federal money will be appropriated that the extra money will be appropriate.
The Douglas County Commission Monday received the transportation department's confirmation of the low bid for the contract and issued an awarding of the contract on the same day.
Construction on the Clinton Parkway probably will begin within a month, a Kansas Department of Transportation official said yesterday.
The Clinton Parkway is a four lane, 4.1-mile highway planned by Lawrence and Douglas County to provide access to the Clinton Reservoir. The reservoir is being filled with water during a staged filling and fish-stocking plan.
The highway construction that was approved by the transportation department was submitted by the JA. Tobin Construction Company, Kansas City, Kan.
The Tobin bid was $3,152,455.50 for the first part of the parkway construction, which is the grading of the roadway and the construction of three bridges.
"We have sufficient federal funding for the amount that was in this first bidletter, 'Dooey said.' "We've contacted our office and we should get the additional funding."
GORDON GUSTIN, contract and proposal coordinator for the transportation department, said the contract would have to be approved by the Kansas Secretary of Transportation, O.D. Turner, and by the Federal Highway administration.
"We hope Congress will approve the money next month, but it could be next year too."
Gustin said that the contract approval would take two weeks at most.
The contract allows the company 200 working days to complete the grading and bridge-building, after which the company will be liable for $420 a day in fines.
Mike Dooley, Douglas County engineer and public works director, said 70 percent of the project would be funded by state-admpistered federal funds.
The remaining 30 percent local share will be funded 60 percent by the county and 40 percent by the city.
THE PARKWAY's projected cost, as entered in the Congressional Record last month, was $9,730,000. The first parkway cost estimate was about $6 million.
Dooley said about half of the money would pay for grading and bridge construction and half would pay for the surfacing of the road. The first payment for the local share of the project, which cost $401,311, was to the Kansas Department of Transportation controller by Nov. 6.
