LANSING, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – The Road Commission of Kalamazoo County has received three statewide IMPRESS Awards and two IMPRESS People’s Choice Awards.
The awards were presented at the County Road Association of Michigan’s Highway Conference in early March. IMPRESS Awards recognize county road agencies that demonstrate innovation on notable projects in the categories of Communication, Operations and Collaboration.
RCKC received an IMPRESS Award in Collaboration for “Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Public Act 51 Mileage Certification Maps” with County of Kalamazoo Planning and Development Department (County Planning); an Award in Communications for “Hybrid Board Meetings;” and an Award in Operations for “Kalamazoo County Consolidated Dispatch Authority and Active911.”
“RCKC has demonstrated excellence in a variety of categories this past year as they continually work to improve their county road network,” said Denise Donohue, CRA. “Their recognized projects are a strong example of how road agencies can make a difference in their communities.”
An independent panel of communications and operations experts from several of Michigan’s 83 county road agencies judged all IMPRESS Awards submissions. Award recipients were honored for projects that solved time constraints, labor costs, communication barriers and fostered collaboration.
