Trenton to press West Cash Irrigation on cost-sharing for culvert at 800 South
Summary
Council reported West Cash Irrigation gave conditional approval to an 800 South canal crossing; the town clarified it owns the culvert and council members will seek confirmation on cost-sharing, finalize engineering plans and bid the work for spring construction.
Trenton’s council discussed a planned canal crossing at 800 South and a large culvert the town purchased in the past; council members said West Cash Irrigation indicated the town should pay for the crossing but had donated additional easement footage for wing walls.
Members debated whether cost-sharing with West Cash or other water users would be appropriate, and council agreed to double-check ownership and precedence rules before finalizing plans. Staff will press the town engineer for final plans so the project can be placed for bid; council aims to complete the project before irrigation season if plans and bids can be finalized in time.
The council did not adopt any binding cost-sharing agreement at the meeting; members asked staff to confirm ownership history and speak with West Cash and other partners about funding splits before awarding contracts.
