Supervisors approve flashing lights at 90th Avenue and 210th Street after 4–1 vote
Summary
The Kossuth County Board of Supervisors approved installing flashing red signals and additional warning signage at 90th Avenue and 210th Street, with Supervisor Howard Haas the lone vote against the measure. The board will review the site again in two months.
The Kossuth County Board of Supervisors voted 4–1 on May 12 to install flashing red lights for north- and southbound traffic at the intersection of 90th Avenue and 210th Street and to add amber warning lights and additional signage on the adjacent approaches.
Supervisor Kyle Stecker moved for the safety improvements and Supervisor Amber Garman seconded. Supervisor Howard Haas cast the only opposing vote; the motion otherwise passed with the remaining supervisors in favor.
The motion also directs staff to add the item to the agenda for review in two months, giving the board a chance to reconsider or evaluate the installation’s effectiveness after initial implementation. The transcript does not record the estimated cost, contractor, or a precise timeline for construction.
The decision follows discussion of roadway safety needs near the intersection; the record records no public testimony or technical feasibility report in the meeting minutes. The board’s action authorizes county staff to pursue the specified signal and signage work and to return with updates at the scheduled review.
