Supervisors adopt One- and Six-Year Road Plan; culvert, gravel and dust-control bids accepted
Summary
The Board approved the county’s One- and Six-Year Road Plan and accepted multiple culvert, gravel and dust-control bids for FY2026-27; Supervisor Scott Griess opposed paving River Road, citing higher-priority needs.
Butler County supervisors approved the county’s One- and Six-Year Road Plan and accepted vendor bids for culverts, gravel and dust control for FY2026-27 during the June 15 meeting.
The Board voted to adopt the road plan after brief debate; Supervisor Scott Griess cast the lone nay on the road plan vote because he objected to including River Road for paving, saying other roads are in greater need. The motion carried on a roll-call vote with six ayes and one nay.
The Board opened sealed bids for culverts from multiple vendors (Contech Engineered Solutions; Midwest Service & Sales; Metal Culverts Inc.; Ace/Eaton Metals) and accepted all culvert bids for the fiscal year. Gravel bids (Kroeger Sand & Gravel; Central Sand & Gravel; Johnson Sand & Gravel) were opened and accepted, with pickup and delivery pricing recorded. Dust-control bids from Marx Dust Control were opened and both sealed bids accepted.
Highway Superintendent Randy Isham provided an update on roadwork and maintenance that will be scheduled under the adopted plan. The Board did not change the adopted priority list during the meeting beyond the recorded dissent; project timelines and funding specifics beyond vendor pricing were not stated at the meeting.
