Home My WebLink About7/22/195717 Robert Graves stated that they had gone out and viewed the areas where Mr. Hogan �p would like either culverts or bridges put in and he stated that in view of the fact that it would cost the County quite a bit of money, and in view of the fact that there was another access to the property which would mean only about a mile and a half more driving that he would recommend not putting in the culverts or bridges. This recommendation was accepted by the Board. Mr. Robert Graves also stated they had look over Mr. Sawyer's property and stated that it would take a bridge to replace the eliptical culvert at Lateral D, Ditch D4 and that the road crew had this set up to be done as soon as they could get to it.
