County Manager reports park, road and speed‑warning sign projects
Summary
County Manager Thomas Weaver told commissioners the River Bend Park curb project is more than half complete, Highway 137 shoulder work is nearly finished, and the county will pilot two digital speed‑warning signs on Jamestown and Wells Street.
County Manager Thomas Weaver updated commissioners at the July 27 work session and the July 7 meeting on a set of public‑works items.
Weaver said crews have poured new curbs at River Bend Park and that the curb work is more than 50% complete ahead of paving. He also reported that the dirt shoulder portion of Highway 137 is largely finished pending seeding and mulching. On traffic safety, Weaver said the county would install two digital speed‑warning signs that flash a motorist's speed as a reminder rather than act as enforcement cameras: "I do want to stress to people that these are not block cameras...It's just to let people know that, hey, you are in excess of the speed limit." The county will pilot the devices on Jamestown and Wells Street.
Weaver also noted the county hosts animal‑control certification classes that attract participants from outside jurisdictions and provide a free slot if a threshold number of regional attendees enroll. The projects are continuing under the county's public‑works and water departments; no new budget actions were recorded at the meetings.
