(Angelina Parisi/Staff) Banning will reimburse Beaumont up to $369,580 for roadway improvements along Highland Springs Avenue at Ramsey Street, an intersection that straddles the boundary between the two cities. The Banning City Council unanimously approved a resolution, authorizing a cooperative agreement that establishes each city’s responsibilities for the project. Beaumont will oversee construction, including administration, inspection, traffic control and coordination with the contractor, while Banning will reimburse Beaumont for work within Banning’s jurisdiction. The project is part of Beaumont’s broader citywide pavement improvement program. Matich Corporation’s bid for the overall project was $3.43 million, with Banning’s share of the work estimated at $321,374. A 15% contingency brings Banning’s maximum reimbursement to $369,580.
