Intergovernmental Partnerships in Elmore County
Information provided by Elmore County Engineer Richie Beyer:
Elmore County seeks ways to partner with all eight of our municipalities to complete a number of projects that benefit the citizens of Elmore County.
One example of a typical project type where the cities and county collaborate is to resurface and preserve city and county streets through the county’s annual paving contracts.
In this partnership, cities and the county maximize their purchasing power by providing contractors larger quantities of work thus reducing costs such as oversight and mobilization.
Each jurisdiction is paying for the cost of its roads through a reimbursable policy adopted by the county years ago.
This year the Town of Deatsville and Town of Elmore are participating with the County to do several projects.
