Lehman Engineering says bridge repairs on hold until funding; Bridge 5 permanent work finished

Joe Lehman, president of Lehman Engineering, updated the commissioners on local bridge repair projects, saying permanent work on Bridge 5 is complete and that further work on Bridges 5 and 7 will begin "as soon as school is out." He said the firm is continuing to seek funding to cover repair costs and that a groundbreaking will be scheduled when funding and logistics are secured.

Lehman did not provide a firm construction schedule or total cost estimate at the meeting; he emphasized coordination with local calendars and the need for additional funding. No formal county appropriation or vote on bridge funding was taken during the session.
