(KLZA)--Pawnee County Commissioners met with County Attorney Jennifer Stehlik Ladman during their November 19th meeting to discuss the process of appointing a new Sheriff.
Current Sheriff Jayme Reed has submitted her letter of resignation effective at the end of the year. Interviews for the appointment of a new Pawnee County Sheriff will be started December 3.
Following discussion with Highway Superintendent Chris Rauner the Board approved a resolution to have Rauner study the use of a portion of road knows as 620 Avenue which has a structurally deficient bridge on it for the purpose of closing a section of the road.
Tyler Binder, Arlan Strahm with Mainelli and Wagner Engineers and a representative of Haverkamp Brothers met with commissioners to discuss bringing just over a mile of 625 Road north of 718 Trail up to standards.
Strahm estimated it would cost $315-thousand to raise the road two feet above natural ground level and bring the road up to standards but noted it would affect the flood plain.
Strahm estimated a price of more than $376-thousand to bring 718 Road between 6161 and 617 Avenue to standards following a September 24th meeting with Mike and Dan Brickman.
