County to seek engineer assessment of historic Military Bridge after reported fracture in center pillar
Summary
Commissioners asked staff to engage the on-call engineer to inspect an historic bridge north of town (the 'old Military Bridge') after a reported fracture in a center pillar; staff will report back with cost estimates for repair or replacement.
Commissioners asked county staff on May 5 to contact the on-call engineering consultant to inspect an historic bridge identified as the old Military Bridge north of town after reports of a fracture in a center pillar.
A county speaker said the bridge "is in need of some... help all the way around" and that an on-call engineer should assess whether the bridge should be maintained or replaced. Commissioners agreed to have the engineer do an initial inspection and provide cost estimates.
The transcript records no procurement or authorization to fund repairs. The board directed staff to obtain the engineer's assessment and report findings and cost estimates at a future meeting.
