The Franklin County Board of Supervisors approved several infrastructure and maintenance items during its July 14 session.
By motion of Supervisor McVicker, seconded by Supervisor Lukensmeyer, the Board approved Pay Application #4 from Carl A. Nelson for the Courthouse electrical upgrade project. The meeting record documents approval but does not specify a dollar amount for the pay application.
The Board approved a request by Roger Farm to perform work within Franklin County highway right of way to clean the south ditch along 140th Street at the intersection of Killdeer and 140th Street, contingent on the Auditor's office receiving a Drainage District Permit Application.
