Board adopts emergency road-closure for Roosevelt Ave between 420th and 440th
Summary
O'Brien County adopted Resolution 2025-09 authorizing a temporary closure of Roosevelt Ave between 420th and 440th for maintenance; the resolution requires "ROAD CLOSED" signs be placed at both ends until construction is completed.
The O'Brien County Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution 2025-09 under authority of Iowa Code Section 306.41 to temporarily close Roosevelt Ave between 420th and 440th for road or bridge construction or maintenance. The resolution directs that "ROAD CLOSED" signs be placed on both ends of the described segment and remain until construction is completed.
The resolution was moved and adopted during the April 22 meeting and is recorded in the minutes. The language included in the minutes reads: "'ROAD CLOSED' signs shall be placed on both ends of the described segment of road, and they shall remain in place until the construction is completed." The motion to adopt the resolution is recorded as carried by all ayes.
Why it matters: the closure affects local traffic on Roosevelt Ave and establishes signage and enforcement for the duration of the maintenance work. The minutes do not specify start or end construction dates. The Board's action authorizes staff to implement the temporary closure and signage.
