(Greenfield, Iowa) – Adair County Engineer Nick Kauffman, Wednesday morning, updated the County Board of Supervisors on recent Secondary Roads Department maintenance and activities. Kauffman said in Washington Township, the bridge Section 32 will have guard rails installed on Monday (Dec. 4^th), weather permitting. He said also their hydro-seeder was expected to have been delivered Wednesday afternoon. Hydroseeding is a technique that spreads a specialized grass “slurry” evenly over bare ground to grow grass and prevent soil erosion.

One of their new hires will start Monday, while another started on Thursday.

In other business, Supervisor Jodie Hoadley told the Board, and Kauffman, that the County had received a requested grant for the installation of fiber optics, which includes the Orient area.

The Adair County Board of Supervisor’s next meeting takes place 9-a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 6^th.
