Afton council allocates up to $18,590 for park culvert repairs
Summary
The Afton Town Council approved up to $18,590.40 from unrestricted funds to repair and replace culverts in a local park, adding flared ends, trash racks and a concrete encasement; work is to be completed by Dec. 31, 2026.
The Afton Town Council voted July 14 to allocate up to $18,590.40 from unrestricted town funds for repair and replacement of park culverts, following a presentation of material and labor estimates by Public Works Director J.R. Nield.
Nield told the council the recommended work includes adding flared ends and trash racks and encasing a shallow culvert in concrete to improve structural integrity. Council Member Dirk Hillyard moved to approve the allocation, Council Member Brock Brown seconded, and the motion passed unanimously.
The council set a project completion target of Dec. 31, 2026. The minutes record estimates and the scope described by Nield, but they do not specify a contractor or a final bid; the council did not authorize a particular vendor in this vote. Further procurement or in-kind labor arrangements were not specified in the minutes.
