Belvidere and Boone County paid $247,000 to buy more than 13 acres of farmland, which the tollway needed to store and park equipment while it rebuilds I-90 over the next few years. The local governments will also pay $203,000 to complete engineering work for the ramp.
Project costs were estimated at $3 million to $4 million. The municipalities would have paid half — or about $1.5 million to $2 million — and the Illinois Tollway Authority would have matched the cost up to 50 percent.
