The Dodge County Board of Supervisors on Sept. 17 approved a $69,550 payment to Burns & McDonnell for engineering and survey work on the Morningside Road improvements project (Project 185002), representing 10% completion. The Board noted the payment will be made by the Fremont Municipal Inland Port Authority but required county approval because the work concerns a county road.
