Roads operator flags grader/packer timing and locations needing branch trimming
Summary
Operator Dave Fransen reported limited road activity in February, asked about reattaching the packer to the grader, recommended limited grading due to potential snow and sloppy conditions, and flagged branches over roads at two locations for trimming.
Operator Dave Fransen reported that there has not been much road work this past month and asked when the township should reattach the packer to the grader after township staff removed it. He said reattaching will require taking the grader wing off, and recommended holding off on broad grading because roads could become sloppy or snow could return; he said he would make small touch-ups if needed.
Fransen also identified two spots where branches are hanging over the roadway and need trimming: 130th Avenue south of County Road 23, and 140th Avenue south of County Road 11. The board noted the trimming need and will address scheduling and follow-up with road maintenance.
