the bridge is in a an area that is in an area where both McLean and Davis County have some claim to it so I have talked with the judge executive of McLean County Judge Dame and we have come up with an interlocal agreement where the two Counties have agreed to split the cost of replacing the bridge and the maintenance it's called you prepared the interlocal agreement it all looks good yes yes and one of the things we did put in there your request and the others is that it does not do anything to define the county line this agreement there has been a disagreement on that portion the county line for a lot of years and we just wanted to make sure that regardless that the number one issue was the public that the bridge didn't cave in so we put in the agreement that the fact that we were both working together on the bridge to not give either one a claim or a disclaimer to the where the county land was any questions or comments by the way we offered them our Engineers
