At-a-glance: motions, hearing dates and approvals from the Kossuth joint drainage meeting
Summary
Key actions: board opened and closed a completion hearing for DDPAK 1, set a public hearing for Joint Drainage District 3589 Lateral 12 (Sept. 15, 9:00 a.m.), accepted project completion and directed auditor to pay damages; retainage (~10%) will be held for 30 days.
The meeting produced several formal actions: the board opened a public hearing for Drainage District PAK 1 completion (roll call recorded), accepted the contractor's work and directed the auditor's office to pay damage claims as discussed; the board set a separate public hearing for Joint Drainage District 3589 Lateral 12 on Sept. 15 at 9:00 a.m.; a first pay estimate for an owner of $62,440.55 was read during the meeting.
Motions recorded in the transcript include: (1) Motion to open the public hearing for Drainage District PAK 1 (moved by Stecker; seconded by Craig Merrill; vote: all ayes); (2) Motion to set a public hearing for Joint Drainage District 35 Lateral 12 on Sept. 15 at 9 a.m. (moved by Craig Merrill; seconded as recorded; vote: all ayes); (3) Motion to approve completion of DDPAK 1 and direct the auditor to pay damages as discussed (moved and seconded; vote: all ayes). Retainage and warranty terms were noted: the contract carries a 1-year warranty and a 10% retainage (about $49,000) which may be released 30 days after approval if no further claims are sustained.
Board clerks and staff will prepare mailing notices, reconcile damage receipts submitted by landowners, and process final pay claims through the auditor's office as the next administrative steps.
