County files CRAB reports and briefs commissioners on recent flooding; Ringer Loop remains closed

Mar 30, 2026

Public works staff presented annual CRAB reports (including a fish passage certificate showing zero projects and a traffic-law diversion report) and updated the board on March 20–21 flooding that produced localized road closures; staff said county infrastructure generally fared well but the gate at Ringer Loop remained closed.

The full story

Josh Fredericks, Kittitas County Public Works Director, presented the county’s annual submissions to the County Road Administration Board (CRAB): the annual certification and priority planning packet, the fish passage certificate (reported as zero for the past year), and the certification of diversion and road-fund expenditures for traffic law enforcement. He said the packet reflects roughly $370,000 in county law enforcement-related road expenditures and asked for the usual signatures (county chair, county engineer, and, where required, auditor and sheriff).
