π§ STAMPS STREET AID: WEβRE MOVING FORWARD ON STREET REPAIRS
On June 23, 2025, I formally requested assistance from the State Aid Street Committee to help address the condition of our streets in Stamps.
Today, that request moved another step forward.
I joined our new Public Works Supervisor, Kirby, and three representatives from ADOT to identify and review streets that we would like to include in approximately $400,000 in State Aid Street funding.
The streets we have requested for consideration include:
πΉ Sunset Street β from Oak Grove to Thompson, then Maple to the end of Sunset
πΉ North Pecan Street β from Ellis to 3rd Street
πΉ Oak Street β from Thomas to Opera
πΉ Gravel Street β from Oak Grove approximately halfway up the street
πΉ Pine Street
πΉ Sioux Street β Main Street and Church Street areas
πΉ West 2nd Street -- Ham and Worthen
NOW WE WAIT for the State Aid Street Committee to review and approve the streets.
If all of the requested streets fit within the available funding, we will move forward with the plan.
If the funding is not enough to address every street on the list, we will have to make difficult choices β either identify additional funding or remove some streets from the project.
And I want our residents to know the truth: street repairs may not begin until 2027 or 2028, depending on the State Aid process, funding, engineering, scheduling, and approval.
But waiting does not mean we stop working.
WE IDENTIFIED THE PROBLEM.
WE REQUESTED THE FUNDING.
WE WALKED THE STREETS.
WE DEVELOPED A PROPOSED LIST.
AND NOW WE ARE WORKING THROUGH THE STATE PROCESS TO GET THE REPAIRS DONE.
This is what moving Stamps forward looks like β doing the work, pursuing the resources, and keeping our community informed every step of the way.
I will continue to keep you updated as we receive information from the State Aid Street Committee.
Stamps deserves streets we can be proud of. And we are working to make that happen. π§π
