Maintenance Report: Checked with Advanced Disposal, it will end up costing us $853.00 for dumpster for tires. If he takes them to Menomonie by the ton it was $250.00/ton. Kevin is wondering if we should raise the cost of getting rid of tires for the next roll off. We will raise the price to $4 without rims and $5 with rims.
Talked to Davis on 810th culvert, he will get it cleaned out.
Mixing salt/sand within a week at the county. Kevin will talk to Davis about hauling it and Karl will talk with his son Adam to see about hauling it. Kevin will need approximately 600 ton total.
Kevin called the “mower man” and hasn’t been able to reach him. He will keep trying.
Kevin and Bob went to the LRIP meeting. They came back and discussed the worst roads and tried to prioritize. They would like to do 1 ¼ miles in 2020 and do the second mile in 2021 on 770th. We need to have a 2 year plan in place for LRIP. In 2022 we would do a box culvert on 930th and maintenance work. This is only the “proposed” road work. It could change due to weather and unforeseen things happening.
Motion to approve the LRIP road plan was made by B. Anderson, 2nd by S. Nielsen. Approved.
Chairman Report: Road funding is 90/10. There are grants available for municipality road work. We will apply for these grants. There is a meeting in November that Bob will go to and see what needs to be done with applying for this.
