Miltona supervisors record Smokey Timbers vacation, plan fixes for Vermont Access drainage

Miltona Township Board of Supervisors · January 13, 2025

Summary

The board recorded the partial road vacation on Smokey Timbers Road and will invoice the Tjepkes for costs; it also discussed regrading ditches on Vermont Access Road with Widseth and submitted a $10,000 DNR culvert grant invoice.

The Miltona Township Board reported that the partial road vacation on Smokey Timbers Road is complete and recorded; the township will send an invoice to the Tjepkes for the associated filing fee, legal and township costs.

Supervisor Tom Blank said the cartway vacate on the east side of Lake Irene needs rewritten legal wording in the resolution before presentation to the board. Supervisor Matt Kugler said he has been in contact with engineering firm Widseth about standing water in the ditches on Vermont Access Road and plans to rework the grade in spring to improve drainage.

The board also recorded an invoice submitted to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources for a $10,000 grant tied to installation of a DNR-recommended culvert on Vermont Access Road. Tom Blank will contact Carr Tree Service about a possible quote for selective spraying of ditches.

An on-floor concern was raised about a strand of barbed wire frozen in the ditch on Vermont Access Road; the board discussed selective spraying rather than broad applications when considering contractors.
