maintenance duties. The agreement is the same as the agreement entered into in past years.

bridge. These include maintenance of the streetlights, removal of snow from the sidewalk, maintenance of the
slope and berms on the north approach, snow and ice control from bridge and approaches, and removal of
marking/spray paint from visible surfaces of the bridge structure.
Mission/Policy/Goal
Compliance with existing in-place agreements.
