Summary

The Ag and Drainage Division asked the drainage authority to solicit subcontractor bids to clean out about 0.667 mile of County Ditch 23, citing sediment and vegetation restricting flow; commissioners approved soliciting quotes.

Ag and Drainage Division staff (Matt) told the board that County Ditch 23 in Woodland Township is partially blocked by sediment and vegetation and requested authorization to solicit bids for cleaning out roughly two-thirds of a mile of ditch.

Matt said the request seeks subcontractor bids to perform a ditch cleanout of “about 0.667 of a mile” because the flow is currently restricted. Chair (S1) called for a motion to obtain quotes and proceed with repair; the board approved the motion after a second.

Staff did not present a contractor or cost estimate at this meeting; commissioners directed staff to solicit quotes and return with recommendations.
