The full story
County roads staff reported a failing wooden box culvert discovered during brush cutting; the culvert's roof was caving and sides splitting, prompting a planned replacement with a 96‑inch spiral pipe. Staff explained additional field survey work is necessary to re‑establish section corners and create easement exhibits for two affected property owners. RW Engineering provided a quote with a not‑to‑exceed figure near $3,210 and staff estimated the final cost would likely be closer to $2,000 depending on field time.
