PUBLIC COMMENT
Sonny Morse: Asked why Steamtown Rd. wasn’t done. The road is always the last road to be done.
The fresh oil sign has been run over, many times. They did two strips of oil up the road; they should do the whole road with oil. The pot holes are getting worse every year. They are not fixed at all; it needs a ditch down the side of the road.
Mrs. Morse would like it black topped in front of her house.
*Need to come up with a program for oiling the roads each year. Dick said you need to at least close the road for 4 hours while you oil the roads, but you can’t do that. (Emergency reasons) Dick also told Sonny all you have to do is call me, and let me know what the problem is, and he will try and fix it.
Bob Nichols: Gibson Hill Rd., the County Crew will be doing the job. The project is set for September. They will be putting in culverts & Gravel. In the spring they will be putting two coats of oil and then gravel, hoping to get Hot Mix on the road, which will last for 10 years.
*County route 106 they are working on that road now, they will only do ½ this year.
*County route 5 will be re-done in 2006.
There will be a 5% increase on the County taxes in 2006, because they are building a new jail,
Jake Gross-asked how many outside prisoners do we house at the jail?
We only house from the Federal Level-at $95.00 a day to $100.00 per day.
*the one-lane bridge will be put into a two-lane bridge also.
*Kitty Pierce asked if County route 116 can get some work done to it, in pretty bad shape.
