Highway Report
Pretty much done with most of the work on Creek Road Bridge railing project. All cross
braces underneath. Finished up box beam approaches yesterday. Looks good. Albert has
been patching and also started mowing roadsides. Helped Venice haul gravel to Connell
Road and Landon. David Reeves has
been grading gravel roads. Put a little layer of gravel on Bruton Road.
David Powers did attend Highway School (57th annual) at Ithaca College put on by Cornell
Local Roads program and the Association of Towns. Very good and informative.
The total amount of Chips Money will be coming in. Richard Harrison had a meeting with
Preston Wilson and Beverly Hammon about right of way on creek road. They have no
objections. The price of $750.00 for 600' right of way. Would like to have County do
survey unless it has to be part of
someone's deed. Richard will check with James Baker the Town Attorney to see about
temporary easement.
