JD‑19 Ditch Authority approves impoundment modification; county OKs cleaning of portion of Ditch 8
Summary
Marshall County’s JD‑19 Ditch Authority approved a petition to modify an existing impoundment with an operations and maintenance plan; separately the county approved cleaning a 1/4‑mile segment of County Ditch 8 in Marsh Grove Township.
The JD‑19 Ditch Authority met during the May 5 Marshall County session and approved findings and an order that grants a petition to modify an existing impoundment on JD‑19. The approval includes an operations and maintenance plan and a memorandum of agreement for execution, subject to conditions noted by the authority.
Following the JD‑19 action, the regular Ditch Authority meeting approved a cleaning request for a one‑quarter mile segment of County Ditch 8 in Section 36 of Marsh Grove Township. Both items were moved and approved by commissioners (motions recorded as M/S/C Nybladh, Kiesow and M/S/C Nybladh, Duckstad, respectively).
The minutes do not include technical specifications of the modification, the memorandum’s conditions, or the contract details for the cleaning work. The approvals authorize the authority and county staff to proceed under the terms approved and to close the JD‑19 Authority meeting and reconvene regular business.
