Summary

A commissioner reported severe erosion at a school access drive and the board approved a motion to allocate $5,000 from the district five road maintenance budget for limerock base placement to stabilize the driveway.

A commissioner (speaker 3) described severe erosion and parking problems at a school access area and moved to allocate $5,000 from the district five road maintenance budget to place roughly 10–15 loads of limerock to stabilize the driveway. The motion was seconded and the board approved it by voice vote.

Commissioner 3 said parents had begun complaining about the drive conditions and that a short‑term limerock base would provide immediate relief until larger repairs could be scheduled. "It's about $4,000. You know, 10 to 15 loads of limerock and the earthwork," the commissioner said when outlining the estimate.

Staff agreed to coordinate the work and said it could be completed using road maintenance crews. The board discussed budget availability and one commissioner noted the district five account had sufficient funds to cover the one‑time allocation.

The allocation was approved and staff were directed to oversee the work and report completion to the board.
