Jerry Hoagland went over the five year plan for the county
roads that are on the agenda for repairs and improvements .
This list of improvements are attached as being a part of
these minutes .
Councilman Simmons wanted to know when, how much it will
take to get Highway 78 and FM 544 and Hwy. 190 projects to
moving and a completion time . Clarence Daughtery said that
Highway 78 will be funded by local government with 10% and
the state will fund 90 % , this is with no curb or gutter .
If the curb and gutters are put in the local government will
pay for the curb and gutters plus 10% of the road . The
approximate cost of Highway 78 for four (4) lanes without
curb and gutter is as follows :
2 million from Sachse to FM 544 (or Kirby St . )
2 .4 million from FM 544 ( or Kirby St . ) to FM 205
Clarence Daughtery said he could not guess on how long this
project would take to complete . If the City would clear and
reserve all right-of-way for this project , then it would
help in speeding up the work once the highway department
staring working in this area . The engineering cost would be
approximately 10% of construction cost . One important thing
is to go to the State with your share of the money in hand .
Councilman Simmons wanted to know what the city could do to
get Highway 78 project started . Jerry Hoagland said put
some money into it .

Jerry Hoagland asked if the city ever thought of have a bond
issue for Highway 78 and Fm 544 . Council said they had
thought about this . Jerry then suggested that Council
appoint a citizen committee to look at these roads and
others and come back with a report of which roads needs more
attention and approximate cost of improvements . Then go out
with a bond issue.
In regards to FM 190 , the City of Garland has given 100% of
the right-of-way through Garland and this project should be
started soon.
Jerry Hoagland suggested that Council take the $4 , 546 , 176.
move it to the FM 544 project which Plano has already
started coming toward Wylie . Jerry requested Council to
think about doing this and coming back with a decision as
soon as possible .
There were two representatives at the meeting to bring a
BOMAG presentation to Council . They showed a film of how
the BOMAG works and how it can recycle a street . This type
of equipment is what the City is working on putting together
a bid package .
