Navajo County approves tribal and county public-works projects and flood-control contract renewals
Summary
Board approved several intergovernmental agreements to repair heavy equipment and deliver gravel for chapter roads (HEERF-funded projects totaling about $103,480) and renewed a flood-control maintenance contract for the county alert system.
The Navajo County Board of Supervisors approved several public-works items including intergovernmental agreements with local chapters and a professional-services renewal for the flood-control alert system.
Public Works staff (Nicole) presented an IGA to assist the Tista chapter with heavy-equipment repairs, estimating repair costs at approximately $4,000 and recommending use of HEERF budget capacity. Nicole said the chapter maintains about 57 miles of roadway, including school-bus routes and emergency access; the board approved the IGA.
A separate IGA with the Navajo Division of Transportation for gravel material proposed placement of about 0.8 miles of gravel on a Black Mesa Chapter road to stabilize a roadway that becomes impassable when wet. Nicole said the estimated project cost is $99,480 and staff recommended approval under the county's transportation partnership process; the board approved the project.
The board also renewed an annual professional-services contract with JE Fuller (hydrology/alert-system maintenance) in the county flood-control district. Flood-control staff said the contract covers routine inspection, cleaning, calibration of rain gauges and technology checks and is critical for public safety; the board approved the renewal.
All three items were moved and approved in open session without further amendment.
