Mannington discusses Warner Road resurfacing; approves part-time public-works help for mowing
Summary
Public Works reported adjustments to the Warner Road resurfacing project due to partial grant funding; the Committee asked staff to check whether originally planned work on two curves can still be completed and approved hiring part-time help for seasonal mowing (14 hours/week). A procedure for emergency tree-service calls was also discussed.
Mayor Richard A. Eber, Jr. provided a verbal Public Works report for February and the Committee discussed the Warner Road resurfacing project. The initial project submission had covered two curves; because of partial grant funding the awarded project shows work on only one curve and a small portion of the roadway. Deputy Mayor Robert DiGregorio and Committeeman Mitchell pressed whether the two-curve plan could still be completed; Solicitor Horner said he would check with the engineer about compliance with bid specifications after the project was awarded.
The Committee discussed procedure for Public Works Foreman Rob Eller to call a tree service in emergency situations and the Clerk's Office emphasized that funds need to be allocated by the CFO. Public Works requested part-time help for the spring/summer mowing season; the Committee approved hiring part-time help for 14 hours per week.
Why this matters: residents reported speeding on Warner Road and asked about additional signage; the resurfacing scope may change the timing and extent of road repairs; part-time mowing help affects maintenance capacity for the coming season.
Provenance: Warner Road signage and resurfacing discussion in SEG 134 and SEG 136–137; part-time hire motion and approval in SEG 140–141; tree-service procedure discussion in SEG 137.
