Road and Bridge supervisor flags multiple road repairs and a broken hydraulic pump
Summary
Superintendent Travis Story told Smith County commissioners on June 22 about damage on several gravel roads and bridges — including a hole on 240 Rd, broken planks at 100 Rd and K Rd (barricaded), and a cracked hydraulic pump on the sheep's foot that must be sent to Concordia for repair.
Commission Chair Kurt Ifland and Commissioner Brady Peterson raised multiple road concerns during the June 22 meeting and asked Road and Bridge Supervisor Travis Story to inspect several locations. Ifland noted a hole in 240 Rd east of L Rd at the bridge and reported a landowner request for a tube to serve an alfalfa field on 140 Rd between M Rd and L Rd. Peterson said 165 Rd between the city limits and R Rd has several holes and water running down the middle of the road.
Story said he will consult with the bridge crew about tubes on 240 Rd between L Rd and M Rd and confirmed he placed a barricade at 100 Rd and K Rd where the bridge had some broken planks that will be replaced. The minutes also record that the main sheep's foot is down because the main hydraulic pump has a crack and "will have to go to Concordia for repairs." Commissioners discussed the benefit of the road drag on gravel roads and blades that need repair.
