Road and Bridge supervisor details storm damage, Perma‑Zyme trial and chip‑and‑seal prep
Summary
Road and Bridge Supervisor Joe Gardner briefed commissioners on storm‑related washouts and ditch damage, a planned look at a July Perma‑Zyme application in Lyon County, private funding offer for gravel on T4/126th, and Martin Marietta's agreement to deliver 500 tons of rock on May 28.
Joe Gardner, Road and Bridge Supervisor, told the Board that recent storms damaged many ditches and caused multiple washouts; crews are working on repairs and asked for public patience. He reported patching on 270th Road in preparation for chip and seal work and that Martin Marietta will begin supplying 500 tons of rock per the county agreement on May 28.
Gardner said he will observe Lyon County's planned Perma‑Zyme application around July to evaluate effectiveness, and that private landowner Chris Seymour will pay for gravel to rock a portion of T4 and 126th Road where he plans to build. Gardner also noted dust control work is complete and that Samsara equipment may be disconnected pending follow‑up. The update included requests from residents about specific roads (e.g., 298th between N & O, and a minimum‑maintenance road on O Road) and staff follow‑up was assigned.
