According to a news release from the County, the City of Spokane Valley is going to have to find another way to maintain their roads starting next year.
Yesterday the Board of County Commissioners voted to discontinue the County’s road maintenance agreement with the City of Spokane Valley, effective October 15, 2009.
The $1.8 million contract was apparently no longer cost-effective for the County Engineering and Roads department which has been providing services such as signing, traffic signals, highway striping and winter maintenance for the Valley since 2005.
No word yet how the City of the Valley will provide these services in the future.
