(Greenfield, Iowa) – The Adair County Board of Supervisors, this (Wednesday) morning, heard from County Engineer Nick Kauffman, who spoke with regard to an updated cell phone policy allowance in the Secondary Roads Department Benefit Policy handbook.

Kauffman presented also, a Bridge Weight Limit Resolution for Adair County. He told the Board they have changed postings on the following bridges:

  • North 35 Summit is now a legal bridge.
  • West 8 Grand River was posted 14 tons.  Re-rating as a one lane bridge allows us to remove the weight limit.  It is now a “legal” one lane bridge.
  • North 1 Summerset was a legal bridge.  It is now posted for 26 tons.

The Resolution was approved as presented. In other business, the Adair County Board of Supervisors approved a Child Abuse Prevention Grant Draw-down in the amount of $1,252.76, and they acknowledged receipt of the SICOG Housing Trust Fund report.
