Wright and Humboldt counties receive joint petition for Drainage District 162-7 and appoint Jacobson Westergaard as engineer
Summary
Trustees from Wright and Humboldt counties received an improvement petition for Joint Drainage District 162-7, heard acreage and main length details, and appointed Jacobson Westergaard & Associates as the engineering firm to handle the matter.
Wright County trustees, joined by Humboldt County representatives via conference call, formally received a landowner improvement petition for Joint Drainage District 162-7 and appointed Jacobson Westergaard & Associates as the engineer for the improvement.
County staff said the district was established in 1916 and covers roughly 1,121 acres in total, with about 916 acres in Wright County and 205 acres in Humboldt County. The proposed new main would extend from the outlet to at least 130th Street or follow the full length of the existing main; trustees discussed replacing the current tile with a larger tile versus installing a parallel relief tile.
Bruce Reimers (Humboldt County) made a motion to accept the petition and to recommend Jacobson Westergaard & Associates as the engineering firm; both counties approved the single motion on a voice vote. Trustees recorded the petition receipt and firm appointment, and the joint meeting adjourned. Wright County staff said they requested Humboldt County’s information on Jacobson Westergaard earlier to coordinate engineering services.
