President Giles outlines road‑restoration plan after sewer work, advises against piecemeal patching
Summary
President Giles presented a map and yardage estimates and, joined by Nunda Township Road Commissioner Rob Parrish, recommended full‑width surface grinding with a 4‑inch binder for Pine Street, NE Shore and Hyde Park rather than Class D patching, citing maintenance problems and the sewer contract's 'restore to original condition' requirement.
President Giles opened the board discussion on road restoration after sewer work by presenting a map showing areas for repair and yardages for Pine Street, NE Shore and Hyde Park. He described two repair options: Class D patching (patch open areas after compaction) and full‑width surface grinding followed by a 4‑inch binder; both he and Rob Parrish argued that patching alone creates ongoing maintenance issues and pointed to the sewer contract requirement to restore streets to their original condition.
The minutes note that contractor responsibilities were described: Geske will perform patching in Villa Vaupell and Trine is responsible for road repair overall. The grinding option was described as more economical over time, with a 4‑inch binder expected to last about 18–24 months before a top surface is applied. The minutes record that fixing Sunset will be discussed separately.
