Cerro Gordo County renews drainage-watch services contract with Bolton and Mink
Summary
The county approved an annual renewal with Bolton and Mink to continue drainage-watch services under the same overall price and staffing model; the auditor said the company has been responsive and timely over the past year.
The Cerro Gordo County Board of Supervisors voted Jan. 26 to renew an annual contract with Bolton and Mink for drainage-watch person services.
The county auditor presented the renewal, saying last year was the first under the contract and that the firm had restructured some pay categories but was maintaining the same overall price. The auditor recommended continuing the arrangement, saying the company’s work over the previous 12 months had been “good, timely” and that landowners had not raised concerns when the firm contacted them before field visits.
The auditor identified Nathan Schmidt as the primary technician on the contract, with backup personnel available to cover urgent needs. A board member moved to approve the contract and directed the chair to sign the annual agreement; the motion carried on a voice vote.
Note on transcript spelling: the vendor name appears as “Bolton and Mink” in some places and as “Bolink” in one segment; the article uses the fuller form recorded most consistently in the transcript and notes the variant spelling where relevant.
