Commissioners reported routine road maintenance work across the county, including grading, ditch work and equipment upkeep.

District 1's commissioner said grading has been limited by dry weather but crews have cleaned ditches where possible. The District 2 commissioner said crews hauled gravel, removed several beaver dams and performed maintenance on equipment. District 3 reported progress on grading and said a new machine may arrive soon to begin additional road cutting. District 4 said crews spot-dragged roads, opened turnouts and replaced bent pipes; the commissioner asked the public to be patient and encouraged experienced equipment operators to apply for work.

No major road projects or funding requests were presented during the reports; commissioners mainly described ongoing maintenance needs and seasonal impacts on grading schedules.
