Maintenance notes culvert timing, $37,259 county grant for Gowan Ave and truck replacement plans
Summary
Maintenance reported a county extension for culvert-replacement grant funds, receipt of $37,259.18 for the Gowan Ave project, equipment-sharing policy with mutual-aid agreements, and that a new truck is expected in December or January; a $500 tire purchase motion failed.
Maintenance staff told the board that the timing for the 134th Street culvert replacement is still unknown but that the county approved an extension for remaining grant funds allocated to that project.
The township received county grant money of $37,259.18 for the Gowan Ave project, the minutes state. Board members agreed that sharing equipment between townships is allowed provided a mutual-aid agreement is signed.
The board was told a new maintenance truck is expected in December or January and that the current truck will be retained until the new vehicle is in possession. Supervisor Ryan Nelson moved to approve up to $500 for new tires for the current truck, but the motion failed; Supervisor Andy Christensen said he may have a set of wheels and tires to donate to get the township through the interim period.
No contractor completion date was provided for the culvert project; maintenance will reach out to the contractor for an expected completion date and report back to the board.
