Wilsonville Mayor Julie Fitzgerald describes the project as her No. 1 priority.
Following the release of a report from the Oregon Department of Transportation showing an exorbitant price tag and the need to replace rather than retrofit the Boone Bridge to complete a project that also would include the addition of an I-5 southbound auxiliary lane designed to quell traffic issues, Wilsonville leaders are shifting their focus to another study that could get the project ready for federal funding.
Mayor Julie Fitzgerald described moving forward on this project, which would prepare the bridge for a major earthquake and could significantly reduce traffic at the I-5 bottleneck (according to a previous study), as her No. 1 priority.

Steve Thompson, R-Fairbanks, “but right now, mum’s the word.” With neither half of the Legislature organized, lawmakers will be unable to consider Gov. Mike Dunleavy’s proposal to pay nearly $5,000 to each Alaska resident this year. Election-reform measures proposed by Republicans cannot be advanced. Police-reform measures supported by Democrats will also languish.

While those symptoms haven’t affected his breathing, the 68-year-old former Marine fighter pilot said he suffers from fatigue that left him bedridden for more than a day.
