Norwich trustees move forward on Schirtzinger Road work and slurry-seal bids for township streets
Summary
Trustees reviewed widening plans for Schirtzinger Road, authorized slurry-seal specifications for multiple township roads funded from revenue-sharing and accepted contractor recommendations for resurfacing and berm work.
Norwich Township trustees considered and approved multiple road-maintenance items through 1973, including Schirtzinger Road widening plans, slurry-seal specifications for several township streets and patching work.
The board reviewed plans for widening Schirtzinger Road and discussed drainage, ditching and berm corrections; trustees received an engineer’s recommendation to resurface the existing base with hot mix and to repair berms. The minutes note that township officials arranged to secure specifications and bid documents and planned to commence work as weather permitted.
Trustees authorized the preparation and advertising of slurry-seal specifications to treat curbed areas on Ridgewood Drive, Schatz Lane, Richlanne Drive, Carjan Way, Hansen Drive and several courts; funds for these projects were drawn from revenue-sharing allocations identified in the minutes. The board also approved specific short-term measures such as cold patching (Smiley Road) and set dates for advertising slurry-seal bids.
The road-item entries record contractor proposals (Slurry Seal Inc. and others) and bidding guidance; trustees instructed follow-up inspections with the county engineer and set bid opening dates. Implementation tasks included arranging specifications, inviting competitive bids and coordinating site inspections with the county engineer and contractor representatives.
