Board hears drainage, patching and equipment updates from county engineer
Summary
County staff updated the board on drainage scheduling, expanded in-house patching to save costs, use of temporary stop lights to calm traffic, and ongoing planning for road closures and events; no formal votes were required beyond routine approvals.
Staff updated the board that spring drainage work will be scheduled later in the summer and that public notices will be posted; there is not yet a firm timeline. The county is working with a contractor on spring drainage tasks and will publish notices when dates are set.
The county engineer reported expanded internal patching work and planned equipment purchases to reduce contracted patching costs. "We've also expanded how much patching our crew does versus how much we hire out and that saved us a significant amount of money so far as well," the county engineer said. Staff also noted use of temporary stop lights to slow traffic in a high-need area and discussed upcoming routine road-closure requests related to community events and the airport.
