Spencer County seeks emergency road aid for Masters Lane and Yoder Tipton Road
Summary
The Fiscal Court approved applying for emergency county road aid to repair a collapsed pipe on Masters Lane (one‑way access serving roughly two dozen households) and to stabilize shoulder/embankment damage on Yoder Tipton Road under the state’s 80/20 emergency program.
Spencer County Fiscal Court voted March 18 to apply for emergency county road aid to repair damage identified on Masters Lane and Yoder Tipton Road.
The road department requested emergency funding after identifying a collapsed pipe on Masters Lane — a one‑way‑in/one‑way‑out location used by about two dozen households, emergency vehicles and school buses — and shoulder/embankment instability on Yoder Tipton Road. The county road‑aid program provides an 80/20 split where the state covers 80% of approved project costs and the local government covers 20% plus any overruns.
Magistrate Travis moved and Judge Travis seconded the application to seek emergency aid and a wash‑over bridge on Washburn Lane; the motion passed by voice vote with all members present voting 'aye.' The court authorized staff to submit the emergency project applications and follow state reimbursement procedures.
Provenance: The road aid emergency request and motion are recorded in the March 18 meeting minutes and packet.
