Motion Carried. <br />MSA ROUTE DESIGNATION. <br />Each year the City of Hugo receives Municipal State Aid Street Funding (MSAS) because it is a city <br />with more than 5,000 residents. This year the City is eligible to receive funds based on 17 miles of <br />street. The City currently has 16.1 designated as MSAS streets leaving .9 miles (4,750 feet) of street <br />to be designated.
