And, they approved a Letter of Support with regard to an application pertaining to a North and Middle River Watershed. The matching grant, through Mid-American Energy, is for $100,000.

In other business, Adair County Engineer Nick Kauffman presented for the Board to approve and the Chair to sign, a Right-Of-Way contract for the N-36 Culvert Project.

The Board passed a Resolution for an Adair County Integrated Roadside Vegetation funding grant application in the amount of $30,000. The funds would pay for a new hydro-seeder. Kauffman updated the Board on Secondary Roads Department projects/maintenance and other activities.

Kauffman said a meeting was set to take place with A.M. Cohron with regard to the Section 32 Washington Bridge deck pouring. The pre-pour meeting will probably be canceled, he said, due to the anticipated weather next week, and temperatures too cold for concrete work.
