(Atlantic, Iowa) – The Cass County Board of Supervisors have passed a Resolution amending the County’s 5-year construction program from Fiscal Year 2024 to FY 2023, which allows a bridge project to move forward sooner than anticipated, thanks to funds the county received by closing a road under Interstate 80. County Engineer Trent Wolken explains…

Wolken reported also, that the Assistant to the Cass County Engineer and Zoning Administrator Rich Hansen, is retiring at the end of December.

It’s not clear at this time, how the Zoning position will be filled. Wolken discussed current Secondary Roads Department Projects during the Supervisor’s meeting.

Additional concrete pours on some projects are expected to take place, Thursday. The Supervisors voted to approved a request by Jorgensen Dirt Works, LLC, to delay work on a project due to a delay in being able to receive project pipe. The original contract complete date was November 15^th, but with the Board’s action, allows that to be extended until April 2024.
