Audubon County sets July 16 hearing on DOT easement for bridge project
Summary
The board set a July 16 public hearing to consider disposing of an interest in county real property after an Iowa DOT request for a permanent easement to facilitate a bridge replacement 0.6 miles north of I-80.
The Audubon County Board of Supervisors voted July 2 to schedule a public hearing on July 16 to consider selling or otherwise disposing of an interest in county-owned real property to the Iowa Department of Transportation.
Resolution 2024-39 directs the Auditor to publish notice and states the DOT has proposed buying a permanent easement to facilitate a bridge replacement located 0.6 miles north of I-80. The hearing is set for July 16, 2024, at 10:00 a.m., and provides the public an opportunity to comment before the board decides whether to dispose of the property interest.
Why it matters: the conveyance would allow the DOT to obtain required right-of-way for a bridge replacement project affecting county land; the public hearing provides statutory notice and an opportunity for resident input prior to final action.
What’s next: the Auditor will publish notice of the hearing; the board will consider public input at the July 16 meeting before taking any final action.
