Summary

The Board approved a batch of right-of-way permit applications with standard conditions and exceptions for work located in the county; one application (2323) was identified as proposing a lane closure and requires more information before full clearance.

The Evansville Board of Public Works on Sept. 4 approved multiple right-of-way permit applications subject to standard conditions, while noting exceptions for two applications and requesting additional information on another.

City staff presented Appendix A right-of-way permit applications numbered in the 2310–2330 range. Staff said no exceptions were taken for most submissions provided the applicants comply with maintenance-of-traffic procedures and implement Indiana MUTCD requirements and that public safety approval is required prior to lane restrictions or street closures. City engineering standards for utility cut repairs also apply.

Staff noted exceptions on applications 2310 and 2322 because the proposed work lies in county jurisdiction rather than the city's right-of-way. Application 2323 was flagged for additional information after staff identified a proposed lane closure; staff said they were communicating with the applicant to collect the needed details. The board approved the batch "as amended" to reflect those exceptions and the request for more information.

The motion to approve, as amended, was moved and seconded and passed by voice vote. The transcript does not record individual votes or the motion maker and seconder.
