Commissioners pick specific county road segments for resurfacing and patching
Summary
During a work session, commissioners identified short segments and miles in each district—County Road 287 (0.7 mile) and various smaller fractions—for resurfacing or targeted patching, and directed staff to compile the full list for a vote at the next meeting.
Commissioners used the March 9 work session to identify exactly which road segments each district will seek to cover with the limited Rebuild Alabama and local-road funds. One commissioner said, "I've selected County Road 287, which is 0.7 of a mile to be totally resurfaced," and proposed dividing the remaining 2.6 miles among County Road 91 and County Road 75 for targeted patching.
Other commissioners outlined district plans: a mountain-side package totaling roughly 3.8 miles across several short segments, District 3 requested County Road 18 from County Road 124 to the state department facility for inclusion, and District 4 identified multiple short segments (fractions of a mile) including a 0.140-mile stretch from the Trust Bridge south near the Lucky 7 property. Chair asked staff to compile the selections and present them at the March 23 meeting for formal approval.
Why it matters: targeted selections will determine which residents see near-term repairs and resurfacing this construction season. Commissioners emphasized prioritizing the "worst spots" in each district to maximize limited funds.
Next steps: staff will assemble the compiled list of selected segments and return with the final list and budget impacts for the March 23 agenda.
