Washington County Engineer David Patterson presented a request for funding and a letter of support for paved shoulder improvements along Highways 1 and 92 from the west side of Washington to Highway G36.  He says the new shoulders would create improvements in safety.

Patterson is requesting $15,000 in funding from the Road Use Tax Fund in the Fiscal Year 2013 budget toward the project if the city of Washington receives a grant from the Washington County Riverboat Foundation.
