(Greenfield, Iowa) – The Adair County Board of Supervisors, during their regular weekly meeting this (Wednesday) morning (Aug. 13), approved a bid from Adair County Concrete for concrete work around the Veterans Memorial. Board Chair Nathan Baier said there was just the one bid.

The Board also approved the final drawings, with regard to the Grandstands on the Adair County Fairgrounds. Baier said there was essentially one change from the initial concept.

The Supervisors heard from Community and Family Resources (CFR) Executive Director, Michelle DeLaRiva. Community and Family Resources (CFR) is a free standing comprehensive substance use treatment provider based in Fort Dodge, which serves individuals across the State, from 14 counties.

DeLaRiva asked, and the Board approved, $450 to help cover the cost of a committal for one person who did not have the funds to cover CFR’s service. Supervisor Jodie Hoadley, said they don’t have much choice, because it is an unfunded mandate from the State. DeLaRiva said she will be back in January to discuss future funding needs.

And, Chair Nathan Baier, upon receiving approval from the Board, signed the Contract and Performance Bond with GovCo, for the N27 Lincoln (Township) Bridge project. Afterward, County Engineer Nick Kauffman provided his weekly Secondary Roads Department maintenance and activities report.

The Board also received an update from Environmental Health Director Jotham Arber.
