During a meeting with Assistant City Manager Nick MacGregor discussing future construction projects, the Burlington City Council gave the green light to progress to the next step replacing Cascade Bridge.
Interim city manager Jim Ferneau said Cascade Bridge is the equivalent of two to three years worth of roads projects. If you want a Cascade Bridge, we are going to have to pay for it, said councilman Robert Critser.
Cascade Bridge was built in the late 1800s and was open to traffic until 2008, when the city council closed it to all traffic after an engineering report said the bridge was likely to collapse due to its deterioration. A later city council reopened the bridge to foot and bike traffic, but on MacGregor s advice, the bridge was closed again in 2019.

The Burlington City Council has selected an outside hire as Burlington s new chief of police.
Marc Denney will assume his position at the helm of the Burlington Police Department at a yet-to-be-announced date. Denney accepted the city s offer for the position ahead of a meeting Monday during which the council was set to approve his appointment.
“This is just formalizing it,” mayor Jon Billups said of the meeting.
Denney now is the police chief of La Center, Washington, a town with a population of 3,281 as of 2018. Prior to that, according to his LinkedIn profile, he was a deputy sheriff commander for 23 years in Cochise County, Arizona, which had a population of 125,922 in 2019.
