With some reluctance the Board of Finance unanimously approved a $62,000 appropriation for the replacement of the Cavalry Road Bridge over the West Branch of Saugatuck River on Wednesday. The funds were previously the cause of slight controversy due to the towns debating over how the remaining 20 percent of the bridge’s total cost — around $464,000 — would be split. One option would be an interlocal agreement between the towns to do a 50-50 split, he said. The other option, which Weston favored, was to follow a state statute that would see Westport bear about 73 percent of the remaining costs.
