Summary
Committee noted road equipment is in good shape, reported six motor graders cover about 400 miles of dirt roads, discussed training and wages, and said 4-day, 10-hour shifts are more efficient; lease vs buy options were also considered.
The Dodge County Road Committee reviewed equipment and operational topics at its Feb. 12 meeting, recording that road equipment is "in good shape" and that six motor graders are in operation to serve roughly 400 miles of dirt roads.
Committee discussion focused on Road Department training and wages. Members noted that 4-day schedules with 10-hour shifts are more efficient for operations. The minutes also record that lease versus buy options were discussed for equipment procurement, but provide no decision or financial detail.
A quarterly Work Order Report was reviewed; the minutes do not include further data from that report. The committee set its next meeting for April 9 at 4:00 p.m. and adjourned at 11:43 a.m.
