The Benton County Board of Supervisors met in special session at 8:15 p.m. at the Vinton City Hall in Vinton. Supervisor Seeman called the meeting to order with Supervisor's Seeman,Primmer and Bierschenk present.
The continued discussion regarding a proposed plan that was brought to the Board for an upgrade to 61st Street, East of Hwy 218. The intent was to have school and city officials involved with the project and the reason for tonight's meeting was to update the City of Vinton officials since they couldn't attend the previous meetings. Wayne Siela shared his safety concerns with farm traffic going by the schools and provided the history of discussion within a formed committee who came up with a plan of action. The Supervisors asked if the City of Vinton was interested in sharing the costs since it affects them as well. All entities agreed for the need of improving said road, but budgeting was a big topic of concern. The City agreed to obtain a quote from Fehr-Graham who is currently doing some work in town if the Supervisors would do the same so all entities know of an estimated cost before any decisions would be made or a time line put in place.
Bierschenk moved/Primmer seconded: To obtain a quote from Shive-Hattery for said proposed plan to upgrade 61st Street East of HWY 218 and bring back to a future combined meeting with city officials. Motion carried.
Bierschenk moved/Primmer seconded: To adjourn at 8:52p.m. Motion carried.
