Mahaska County supervisors approve claims, Vandenburg Acres plat and SE Connector Phase 2 contracts
Summary
At its March 2 meeting the Mahaska County Board of Supervisors approved $585,388.36 in February claims, approved the preliminary and final plat for Vandenburg Acres, authorized payroll removal for a Secondary Roads employee, and awarded SE Connector Phase 2 utility and paving contracts.
The Mahaska County Board of Supervisors on March 2 approved routine county claims totaling $585,388.36, advanced a local subdivision plat and cleared contracts tied to the county's SE Connector Phase 2 roadway project.
In the meeting's consent and action items, Member Chuck Webb moved and Vice Chair Steve Wanders seconded approval of February claims in the amount of $585,388.36; the board recorded unanimous aye votes and carried the motion. Webb later moved (seconded by Wanders) to remove Maison Breuklander from the Secondary Roads payroll; that motion also carried on a unanimous vote.
The board voted to approve the preliminary and final plat for Vandenburg Acres (moved by Wanders, seconded by Webb). The action clears local subdivision approval and allows the applicant to proceed with recorded plat requirements and any subsequent permitting.
On infrastructure work tied to a county road project, the board approved two SE Connector Phase 2 items. Webb moved (seconded by Wanders) to approve utility relocation agreements with MidAmerican Energy that the board said are necessary before construction. The board then approved a construction bid: Wanders moved (seconded by Webb) to accept the bid from Metro Pavers, Inc. for the SE Connector Phase 2 project (project number RFMX-C062(109) --56-62). Both motions passed by unanimous vote.
All votes on recorded motions were announced in the meeting as "all ayes." The board did not provide a roll-call vote breakdown in the public minutes beyond that announcement.
The board adjourned at 9:51 a.m. with Vice Chair Wanders moving to adjourn and Webb seconding.
What happens next: the county will proceed with vendor contract finalization and required coordination with MidAmerican Energy for utility relocation work associated with SE Connector Phase 2. The Vandenburg Acres plat approval allows the recording process to proceed per county land-use procedures.
