Lyon County moves Bridge 71W up in Five‑Year Construction Program; engineer reports hiring pause after resignation
Summary
County Engineer Daryl Albertson told the Board the Bridge 71W ER project will be moved from FY2028 and scheduled to be let by October; the Board approved the Five‑Year Program amendment and noted a truck driver resigned, with the department pausing replacement hiring.
County Engineer Daryl Albertson told the Board on March 10 that the Bridge 71W ER project will be moved forward from fiscal year 2028 and scheduled to be let by October of this year. The Board approved the amendment to the Five‑Year Construction Program and authorized the chairman to sign (motion by Altena, second by Scholten).
Albertson also reported that a truck driver has resigned from Secondary Roads and the department will delay hiring a replacement at this time. The minutes record the resignation and the department’s temporary hiring pause but do not indicate an expected recruitment date.
The amendment authorizes staff to adjust the program schedule; funding and bidder selection will follow the county’s procurement and project management process.
