Board approves 134th culvert replacement, beaver control and grading hires
Summary
Silver Creek Township authorized the 134th culvert replacement with grant reimbursement to be sought, reopened Meridian Ave after a Monticello Township project, and approved up to $750 for beaver trapping and up to $1,000 to hire a water truck.
Supervisors reported ongoing maintenance work and authorized small expenditures for short-term responses to road conditions.
Supervisor Ryan Nelson said the 134th culvert replacement will occur at the end of October or beginning of November; the board plans to submit project costs to the county for use of remaining grant funds. Nelson also reported the Meridian Avenue culvert project—completed by Monticello Township—will allow the road to reopen tomorrow.
To address immediate maintenance needs, Nelson moved to approve up to $750 for beaver trapping, seconded by Vice Chairman Brandon Geyen; the motion carried 4-0. Nelson also moved to approve up to $1,000 to hire a water truck for grading if needed, seconded by Geyen; that motion carried 4-0.
The minutes do not specify contractor names for the culvert work or the expected final invoice amounts; the board indicated it will coordinate with the county for grant reimbursement.
