The Cass County Board of Supervisors held their regular, weekly meeting this (Monday) morning. During their brief session at the courthouse in Atlantic, the Board approved a beer permit and Sunday sales permit for the 21st Century Coop C-Store, in Massena, and an abatement or exemption of taxes for properties owned by the City of Atlantic (Including airport buildings and land, in Washington Township).

Board Chair Frank Waters said the Board took the same action last year. County Auditor Dale Sunderman read a letter from City Administrator John Lund prior to the Board’s vote to approve the request. And, Cass County Engineer Charles Marker reported on various, on-going bridge projects, some of which will be wrapping up, soon.

Marker says a patch repair on the deck and complete overlay on Bridge #414 near the Russell Joyce farm, should be completed this week. Also, the south piling has been driven on the Griswold Golf Course bridge has been completed, with the north pier having been done last week. The project is expected to be completed later this fall. Work continues as well, on the Landfill road bridge. Marker says it’ll be another couple of weeks before they can begin pouring the bridge deck.

And, Marker says there were about 50 applicants for the Secondary Roads Department’s Motor Grader position. He’s conducted six interviews, with a seventh coming up on Wednesday. He hopes to conclude the interviewing process soon.
