The Honorable, The Senate:
The Local Roads Improvement Program (LRIP) was established in 1991 to assist local communities in improving seriously deteriorating county highways, town roads, and municipal streets. Since then, $371.3 million has been distributed to local units of government through this program. The 2009-11 State Biennial Budget provided non-discretionary funds of $16.2 million in FY 2010 and $16.2 in FY 2011, with separate discretionary funds of $6.8 million in FY 2010 and $6.8 million in FY 2011. Including funding carryover from the previous program cycle, $46.6 million was available for 900 LRIP projects during the FY 2010 and FY 2011 program cycle.
Administrative Rule Trans 206.03(15)(f) directs WisDOT to publish a summary of program activity by June 30th of each odd-numbered year. The latest edition, Local Roads Improvement Program (LRIP) Biennial Summary Report: State Fiscal Years 2010-2011 is available exclusively electronically on the LRIP Web site at
http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/localgov/highways/docs/lrip-biennial2010.pdf.
Information in the report is current as of March 10, 2011. Since not all projects from the 2010-2011 program cycle were completed as of this date, data in this report may not agree with the most current information available.
If you have questions regarding the program, please visit the LRIP Web site at:
