At the March 12, 2026 meeting, staff reported that right-of-way contracts are needed on 38 parcels for the Berkley Road project, but only 100000 is currently set aside for ROW. They indicated that an additional 290000 in Surface Transportation Block Grant funds will be shifted to this project by the next meeting, and Resolution 2026-07 was later approved to re-align STBG funding exchanges with the Anderson MPO to support over-budget projects like Goyer Road and, by implication, Berkley Road. This signals that engineering design is advancing and the city is moving into a heavy right-of-way and pre-construction phase for a federally funded roadway project.While no ROW consultant or engineering firm is named in the minutes, the scale of parcel acquisition and funding reprogramming suggests upcoming needs in appraisal, negotiation support, relocations, and design updates. Vendors in transportation engineering, ROW services, and project management can position for support contracts tied to this and similar city-led road projects as funding is finalized for FY 2026–2028.

38 parcels require ROW; funding shift is tied to broader STBG exchanges approved in Resolution 2026-07.
