County allows Precinct 2 to enter private property to clear ditch on County Road 371
Summary
Erath County Commissioners approved a request to allow Precinct 2 crews to enter private property along County Road 371 to clean an obstructed ditch and restore proper flow through an existing culvert.
Commissioner Stevens requested permission for Precinct 2 crews to enter private property along County Road 371 (referred to in the meeting as County Road 371) to remove silt and restore a culvert that had stopped up and caused water to wash out across the road and toward a resident’s fence.
Commissioners approved the request by voice vote after a second by Commissioner Edwards. The requesting commissioner said the property owner had given permission for crews to clean the ditch and that the work was necessary to direct water through the culvert as intended and prevent further road washout.
The approval authorized Precinct 2 to perform the cleanup on private property; the motion did not attach funding or require any additional county action beyond the field work the precinct performs.
