The provided source for this "Deep Dive" podcast is an Intergovernmental Cooperation Agreement between the Township of Newtown, the Borough of Newtown and the Newtown Creek Coalition. Only the township and borough, however, are the designated signatories to this agreement.

This formal document outlines the planning, funding, and construction of a pedestrian bridge over Newtown Creek, which is being called the "Bridge Project." [Refer to the Briefing Document for a detailed summary: https://rebrand.ly/NTcreekIGAbriefing]

The agreement specifies that the project is funded primarily by a Commonwealth of Pennsylvania grant of almost one million dollars and mandates cooperation among the entities for aspects like contract management, bidding, cost-sharing for non-grant expenses, and the handling of disputes through arbitration.

It also assigns the responsibilities for design, construction oversight, and long-term maintenance among the three parties, confirming their mutual benefit from the project.

Approval of this agreement by the township is to be considered at the 8 October 2025 Board of Supervisors meeting.
