(KNZA)--Doniphan County is preparing for this summer’s chip and seal road work.

The County Commission this week accepted a bid from Kansas City, Missouri-based Vance Brothers for the purchase of RS-IH+ road oil in the amount of $1.63 a gallon, delivered.

The county plans to chip seal 30 miles of roadway this year.

Commissioners discussed contracting with Vance Brothers to do the chip seal projects versus the county continuing to do the work.

Following discussion, the Commission decide to have county crews perform the work.
