Commissioners approve engineering contract, close swap‑shop sites and set 2025 meeting dates
Summary
The board approved a contract with Catlin Engineering for a heavy-repair plan, agreed to close swap‑shop drop sites with new signage and approved commission meeting dates for 2025.
The Bladen County Board of Commissioners approved several noncontroversial items including a contract with Catlin Engineering to perform a proposed heavy‑repair plan, closure and signage changes for swap‑shop drop sites and the county’s 2025 commission meeting calendar.
During the meeting commissioners discussed placing signage at landfill sites to direct residents where to drop materials after the swap‑shop closures. One commissioner suggested a January 1 start date for the change; staff said they would produce signage and a press release to notify residents.
Separately, the board approved a contract with Catlin Engineering to carry out the proposed heavy repair plan; commissioners noted the desire to begin work and to recoup funds as appropriate. The board also considered and approved the proposed commission meeting dates for 2025.
These items were approved by voice vote on the floor; the transcript shows members voting “aye” during each motion. The motions were recorded in open session and will be reflected in the official minutes.
