Scott County officials raised concerns about Transportation Advisory Board (TAB) scoring and appointments, saying recent trends disadvantaged some projects; Metropolitan Council acknowledged concerns and promised a look‑back review of recent solicitations.

The Scott County Board adopted its Jan. 6 consent agenda, which included adoption of 2026 operating rules, multi-year labor agreements, highway project agreements and payments, a grant agreement for federal funding application support, and authorization of flood resiliency study work for the Southwest Metro River Crossing.
