Summary

At the board's citizens period, residents asked when a long-delayed bridge would be repaired and raised a land-title dispute in Kelly Estates; staff said the bridge contract had been bid and awarded and that contract work time is about 120 days once state concurrence is received, while the Kelly Estates matter was referred to county attorney research.

During the citizens period a resident asked whether a bridge project that has been delayed for more than a year would be restored; a county official responded, "The job has been bid and awarded," and said the contracts are expected back soon and that "I believe the contract time is like 120 days to be placed right now." The board recorded the response and told the resident staff would continue to press the work into the state aid process.

Separately, Mary Kelly addressed the board about a 48.35‑acre parcel she said had been promised as a community park for Kelly Estates; she asked the board to research title records. The board approved a motion to have county attorney and staff investigate the deed and report back to the board.
