Todd County approves two ditch hold‑harmless agreements, including a private crossing replacement

The board, acting as the county ditch authority, acknowledged receipt of a hold‑harmless agreement from Wall‑E and Lorie Miller and TripleM Dairy Inc. to clean a portion of County Ditch 33 in Reynolds Township and approved it by motion. For County Ditch 11, the board approved a hold‑harmless agreement from David and Edna Bontrager to clean roughly 3,960 feet of the main ditch and replace a failing private crossing on parcel 2600670 in Ward Township; staff noted the crossing will need to match the hydraulic capacity of the existing 36‑inch culvert (two 24‑inch culverts or a single 36‑inch equivalent).
