Board approves drainage work orders and authorizes tile investigation
Summary
Worth County approved listed drainage work orders and agreed to dig test holes to inspect suspected plugged tile near Maverick and Holiday Inn; staff were asked to contact contractors to investigate.
The Worth County Board approved multiple drainage work orders and directed staff to investigate a reported plugged tile that is causing a persistent wet area west of Maverick.
Chair (Speaker 5) summarized the action and moved to approve the listed work orders. The board voted and the motion carried. Chair (Speaker 5) said staff should "get somebody go out there and dig some holes," and the board discussed using local contractors (named Rugness, Elliot, JJ) to assess whether the tile is plugged or if capacity is insufficient.
Board members emphasized safety and resolving drainage for affected landowners. They instructed staff to report findings and determine whether repairs are maintenance (simple clearing) or an improvement that would require engineering and potential budget amendment.
