Anticipated costs for the State Route 347 overpass drives much of the increases in the city of Maricopa’s $142 million budget for the 2017 fiscal year.
The budget, which the Maricopa City Council approved at its meeting on June 21, is $30 million higher than last year’s budget of $112 million. The city expects to spend about $15 million for its share of the design and construction of the overpass project.
