Summary

Following discussion of bank erosion and redetermination, the Board reached consensus to complete any emergency repairs on County Ditch #30 immediately and defer the full repair project until after the redetermination of benefited acres.

After hearing the engineer's presentation and landowner questions, the Big Stone County Board reached consensus to perform any necessary emergency stabilization work on County Ditch #30 immediately while deferring the full repair project until the redetermination of benefited acres is completed.

The approach preserves immediate bank stability while allowing the county to determine final benefited acreage—and therefore how repair costs will be allocated—before undertaking the larger, full repair. The board did not specify a schedule for completing the redetermination or for when full repairs would begin; contractors and timing were not specified in the meeting.
