Rawlins County hires Wayne Lanning as Road and Bridge supervisor; equipment and staffing updates discussed
Summary
The board voted to hire Wayne Lanning as Road and Bridge Supervisor effective upon current supervisor Mark Loop’s retirement; commissioners also heard updates on a $37,500 reserve on a machine listed for sale, dozer readiness, three new hires, and a tower road issue near the hospital.
Rawlins County commissioners voted June 16 to hire Wayne Lanning as the county’s Road and Bridge Supervisor. Commissioner Lincoln Pochop moved to hire Lanning and Commissioner Mark Mosley seconded; the motion carried. The hire will take effect when current supervisor Mark Loop retires.
Road and Bridge lead Mark Loop updated the board that a machine listed on Gavel Roads carries a $37,500 reserve and the county dozer will soon be ready to go to L&M. Loop said three recently hired employees are performing well and receiving guidance from Loop and Lanning. Commissioners and Loop also discussed a tower road issue by the hospital; no formal action was recorded on that item.
The minutes record the personnel motion but do not provide a retirement date for Loop or the purchase/sale price for the listed machine. The board’s approval establishes Lanning as the designated supervisor when Loop departs; staff follow‑up will be required to formalize the transition timeline and any contractual terms for equipment sales.
