Wayne County Highway Superintendent Kyle Huff presented a new Permit to Construct Utilities on County Right-of-Way modeled after Nance County’s permit, saying the current Wayne County permit was not strict enough and fees were too low. The board approved the new permit with a text change to correct the county name on page 6; discussion included a proposal to change the gravel replacement requirement from one load to four loads per mile.
