Road & Bridge supervisor (speaker 2) reported current fuel delivered to the shop at $3.69/gal diesel and $3.21/gal gasoline and estimated operators burn about 40 gallons/day per blade (about 280 gallons/day total). He said a 4-day blading week would push fuel costs near $215,000 for blades alone and proposed cutting to 2 days/week to stay within the $2.70 combined fuel budget; estimated fuel if operations stayed at last year's burn would be roughly $300,000 for diesel alone at current prices.

Speakers:

Seward County commissioners held a work session where Road & Bridge staff requested guidance to reduce blading from four to two days weekly because rising diesel (reported at $3.69/gal) is straining the fuel budget; the county treasurer summarized bookkeeping issues including old personal‑property write‑offs, collections results with contractor CBK, an online payments proposal (Catalyst) and a banking-audit update.
