Summary

Staff updated the committee on local bridge prospects (County Road O), Causeway MLS platform and paving schedule, ongoing aggregate processing at Richards Pit, and recent interdepartmental work including mowing a firebreak at John Muir Park.

County highway staff briefed the committee on multiple ongoing projects and interdepartmental operations.

Causeway MLS platform design is being finalized with ADA elements and platform construction will begin; paving of the Causeway is tentatively scheduled for mid-May and will require flagging operations. At Richards Pit, recycled asphalt is being crushed and staff plan to construct a pad and retention basin to support washing for manufactured sand processing.

Staff also noted WCHA items including a paver training and a regional meeting; the minutes record that Brian may attend virtually if offered.
