County roads staff reported ongoing maintenance work including blading roads near wheat fields and placing rock on S Road, with plans to address soft spots on Cedar Road. Joel Elkins told commissioners crews were continuing routine repairs while managing equipment availability.
Elkins said staff are still working to obtain parts for an out-of-service mower and that those parts are coming from Canada, which has caused delays. Commissioner Ed Duskie raised concerns about conditions on 203rd north of Jewell, and the board noted that Noah Shipman has been doing good work on mowing; commissioners also said they received compliments for work in the Esbon area.
