Highway committee unanimously approves three bridge‑aid applications
Summary
The committee approved bridge‑aid funding applications for Boettcher Road (Town of Brillion), Bruckner Road (Town of Charlestown) and S Columbus Road (Town of Brothertown). Motion carried unanimously; county staff had already recommended approval.
The Calumet County Highway Committee voted unanimously on June 4, 2026 to approve three bridge‑aid applications brought forward by county staff. Highway Commissioner Chad Scheinoha told the committee the department received and vetted applications for: Boettcher Road north of Rusch Road in the Town of Brillion; Bruckner Road in the Town of Charlestown; and South Columbus Road in the Town of Brothertown.
Supervisor Ronald Dietrich moved to approve all three bridge aid applications, and Supervisor Kathleen Thunes seconded the motion; the minutes record the motion as carried unanimously. Commissioner Scheinoha stated each application had been approved by county staff before being presented to the committee.
Why it matters: bridge aid can fund repairs or replacements that affect local mobility and safety on town roads. Approvals allow the county to move forward with coordination and scheduling with the towns and any required state or vendor processes.
Next steps: staff will proceed with administrative follow‑up on the approved applications so projects can be scheduled and funded.
