Public Works proposes policy letting school districts place non-regulatory bus stop signs; board takes no action
Summary
Public Works proposed a policy allowing school districts to designate locations for non-regulatory bus stop signs, with districts bearing installation and removal costs; commissioners provided feedback and took no formal action.
Public Works Director Curtis Mader presented a draft policy to standardize installation of school bus stop signs on county roads. Under the proposal, school districts could designate stop-sign locations and would pay for installation and removal; the signs would be non-regulatory and therefore not require board approval for each placement.
Commissioners provided feedback, including questions about timing for specific sign installs (SW Haverhill Road) and detour striping on the SW Butler Road project. No formal action was taken; staff will send the policy to school districts for their input before returning to the board for further consideration.
