City Engineer Jeremy Grenard told the board the city’s base sewer work was reduced by roughly $606,000 after discussions with the county about restoration; the MOU would provide that money to the county so it can hire its own contractor to widen and make safety improvements the county requested rather than the city performing a traditional restoration.

Board members asked whether the county had signed; staff said the board was approving the MOU first and the county had been amenable during negotiations. Grenard said the county work is contingent on the city finishing force main work from the lift station near the township trustee’s office and expected the county’s work to occur later this summer.

The board moved, seconded and approved the MOU by voice vote. The action cedes the restoration portion of the city project to the county in exchange for roughly $600,000 to be used for the county’s desired scope of work.","The board approved a memorandum of understanding to transfer about $600,000 from a city sewer project to Tippecanoe County so the county can perform widened restoration and safety improvements on Wea School Road with its own contractor.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6162833,"Lafayette board adopts Vision Zero-style resolution to cut roadway deaths",249,444000,693000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5437496-dd80decc84758950dcd4eb805565cbf6&start=444&end=693","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5437496-dd80decc84758950dcd4eb805565cbf6/thumbnail_444000.jpg","/articles/6162833/Lafayette-City/Tippecanoe-County/Indiana/Lafayette-board-adopts-Vision-Zero-style-resolution-to-cut-roadway-deaths","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6162833-8abcd55ce4e20fc1092055300ed3fab0/orig.mp4?Expires=1771160952&Signature=bI-2a9yl0vP2sjmFSoOKQ5Kp59ZG9VkFI2PhaA-v0i44OfazOSIt58xhb4yExsziDhTB9SlmxCL1x-hSRmxVQbtYCMiDxm3WN8rsfnbA6yrKcYHacnfl5swl96Rtpey1Okoa~s8Q3uq~3G4lKmmFiSpb64OxYM~uhG27fWhNpHtvBz6L9zO8YCwwJWM5DkdJq0RupQMLIXEwyQFqBZsgnZzIGfmXcb2J8pyIVaod3LhOVDXP1wsHVhYvOxvkzj8w2mZMxoa7QkaiVrF5~gip23z2R2-tHzD8b9EOdsyYSKdo3FDl2p7NFlSwYkEk1kRBSjfGqtFdImmoPro5divhgw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Lafayette City Board of Public Works and Safety on a voice vote approved a resolution committing the city to the goals of the Tippecanoe County Safe Streets for All action plan, including a goal to reduce fatalities and serious injuries by 50% by 2034 and eliminate them by 2044.

City Engineer Jeremy Grenard told the board the county plan uses a scoring system to prioritize safety projects and that one of the highest-scoring corridors was South Street from Sagamore Parkway to I‑65, where the plan counted about 1,900 crashes over five years. He said the city is targeting the federal Safe Streets for All grant and that Federal Highway advised a local resolution would strengthen funding applications.

Board members moved and seconded the resolution as brought; the board approved it by voice vote. Grenard and board members described the targets as ambitious and noted engineering can only address part of the safety problem, with behavior change remaining a key challenge.

The action places Lafayette on record supporting the county plan’s targets and is intended to make local projects more competitive for federal safety funds. Grenard said the city worked with legal counsel and a consultant on the resolution language.

The resolution was identified in the meeting as Resolution O9-2025 and was approved without separate recorded roll-call votes in the transcript.","The Lafayette City Board of Public Works and Safety approved a resolution committing the city to goals in the Tippecanoe County Safe Streets for All action plan, including reducing fatalities and serious injuries 50% by 2034 and eliminating them by 2044, to strengthen grant applications for federal safety funding.","actionData","errors"]
