Highway commissioner: North White Oaks project $338,000; county bridge funding reduced, grants delayed
Summary
The highway commissioner reported a $338,000 estimate for North White Oaks Road (Curren lowest bidder), sale of surplus items for $7,626, a $1,956 dividend check, and said county bridge program funding was cut after federal support ended, leaving $656,000 from the state for township bridges and a committee to allocate it.
The Highway Commissioner reported the North White Oaks Road project is estimated to cost $338,000 and that Curren was chosen as the contractor as "they came in the cheapest," a procurement detail referenced to justify selection.
The report also covered maintenance and asset matters: the township sold old chemicals and truck No. 2 on Wisconsin Surplus for $7,626 and received a $1,956 dividend from "Toirma." The commissioner said federal funding for the county bridge program stopped three years ago; the county now has $656,000 in state funds for township bridges and has formed a five-member committee (which includes the Highway Commissioner) to decide allocations. He added local operational notes including pipeline safety certificates, relocation of a weather station to Lilja and Yates Road, and recent snow removal after about 7 inches of snow.
