31-6-3. Resolution of county proposing project--Preliminary survey, plans, and estimates. Before any project under the provisions of this chapter may be submitted to the Federal Highway Administration, a request for the submission of the project shall be embodied in a resolution passed by the governing body of the county having control of the highway upon which the project is desired, and a certified copy shall be filed with the department, together with an agreement by the county to reimburse the department for any costs over and above those costs covered by the federal-aid secondary funds available to the county plus the state highway funds matching those federal-aid secondary funds to carry out the project to the beginning of construction. However, if the county petitioning for the project desires to use its own highway organization for the making of the preliminary survey, plans, and estimates, the county may do so, but the survey, plans, and estimates shall be submitted in detail to the department for approval.
