Summary
The county must install a stoplight at the 117 bypass and US 117 business as a condition of the new DHHS building, but a $56,340 design contract failed 3-2. The county could be stuck — NCDOT is requiring it.

Impact analysis
The rejected design contract was $56,340; the county remains obligated to the state for the signal.
If built, drivers at the busy Burgaw intersection and DHHS visitors and employees.
Delay could put the DHHS building's state agreement at risk and leave the intersection unimproved.
