Riley County and the city of Manhattan will enter an official agreement to split costs for aerial surveys.
Riley County commissioners on Thursday signed their part to formalize the deal, which in the past had only been a verbal agreement that the city would reimburse the county for its portion of the survey costs.
The county continues to own the contract with EagleView Technologies for pictometry, an aerial survey technique for creating maps via imagery from above. The new multi-year contract, lasting until August 2029, states that the county will pay EagleView Technologies the full cost of three flights and that the city will pay the county a total of $73,607 in six payments of $12,267.
