Road department reports chip-seal delay; Brown Road patch cost about $18,000
Summary
Benson County's road department said chip sealing scheduled by Sept. 1 was delayed by contractor Aztec; the department reported an $18,000 patch on Brown Road and commissioners asked staff to gather contract details and consider penalties for missed completion dates.
The county's road department updated commissioners on routine maintenance and a delay in a chip-seal contract.
The road representative said crews continue graveling and patching and that a Brown Road repair billed at about $18,000 had been completed. He told the board that chip sealing was scheduled to finish by Sept. 1 but that the contractor, Aztec, had not completed work on time.
Commissioners asked staff to obtain contract details, including any penalty provisions for missed completion dates, and to report back at the next meeting. The department representative said they would get details from the contractor for the next meeting.
No formal penalty was assessed at the meeting; commissioners framed the next step as staff follow-up on the contract and potential remedies.
