Summary
The drainage board approved several routine items including signing the DD4 Lateral 11 construction contract, accepted a petition to add Lateral 40B to the DD82 Lateral 33B project, approved a repair request in Lincoln township and set the FY 2026-2027 budget hearing for April 21 at 8:30 a.m.; most votes were recorded as voice votes with motions and seconders noted in the record.
The drainage board moved through several routine agenda items, approving contracts, accepting a petition for engineering review, assigning a supervisor for a repair and setting the fiscal-year 2026-2027 budget hearing date.
The board approved the agenda and the March 24 meeting minutes on a motion by Garman with White seconding; the record notes the motion carried on a voice vote. Later, the board set the FY 2026-2027 budget hearing for April 21 at 8:30 a.m. (motion by Stecker; second by Haas), and the motion carried by voice vote.
The board also approved and signed the construction contract for DD4 Lateral 11 after a motion by Stecker and a second by Haas; a board member said they would ensure the contract was signed. The board accepted a petition to add Lateral 40B to the DD82 Lateral 33B project and directed engineering firm Bolton & Menk to include the request in their report (motion by Stecker; second by Garman). The board considered a repair request for section 27 of Lincoln Township describing blowouts on a recently purchased property and moved to have a supervisor handle the request (motion by Loक्टर; second by Haas); the motion carried.
All routine motions recorded in the transcript were approved by voice vote with "motion carried" noted in each case; specific aye/nay tallies and individual roll-call votes were not recorded in the transcript.
What to expect next: The board will follow up on the repair request, include the accepted petition in Bolton & Menk's report, and hold the budget hearing on April 21 at 8:30 a.m. as scheduled.
