Summary

Road Superintendent Pat Redmond recommended using north vs. south of I-94 as the enforceable boundary for Load Pass restrictions; commissioners reached consensus to proceed with that zoning approach due to enforcement and road-condition concerns.

Pat Redmond told commissioners that a north/south boundary at I-94 is the only enforceable zone for Load Pass road restrictions, arguing east/west lines would complicate enforcement given inconsistent road conditions. Commissioners discussed the practical enforcement issues and agreed by consensus to adopt a north/south zoning approach for load restrictions.

The change is intended to provide clearer enforcement parameters for load-restricted periods. No formal ordinance or motion was recorded in the minutes; the record shows commissioners reached consensus to proceed with the north/south zoning approach and directed staff to implement the change in forthcoming restrictions and signage.
