Commission hears updates on Belmont Road, culverts and sinkhole repairs
Summary
Director Bolling told commissioners the department completed Belmont Road patching and Basin Road, is pursuing an N‑flap grant for a full 27‑mile Belmont rebuild, and listed culvert replacements and sinkhole repairs as priorities for the remainder of the calendar year.
Director Bolling reviewed capital and calendar‑year projects, telling commissioners that the Belmont Road work finished a skin patch on Oct. 10 as an interim measure and that the department applied for an N‑flap grant that, if awarded, would let them "redo all 27 miles of road from the highway to Belmont." He said Basin Road construction was completed and some projects were paid largely with CIP funds.
Bolling listed other ongoing priorities: culvert installation and replacement in flooding‑prone areas, addressing roughly a dozen to 20 drainage locations where rain does not drain quickly enough, addressing sinkholes in hydro‑collapsible areas of Pahrump, and installing roughly 35 solar lights county staff are holding for a winter project. He told the commission these projects are prioritized by risk and calendar availability rather than fiscal‑year lines.
