(KNZA)--A Topeka engineering firm will inspect Brown County’s two hundred and two off-system bridges.

The County Commission Monday accepted the low bid submitted by Cook, Flatt and Strobel to conduct the inspections at $78 a bridge for a total cost of $15,756.

Two bids were received last week. BG Consultants, who have been conducting the county’s bridge inspections, submitted a bid for $98 a bridge.

The county’s off-system bridges must be inspected every two years.

In other action, the Commission approved a resolution appointing Tami Antoine, of Marysville, to a 4-year term as county appraiser, ending June 30th, 2021.

Antoine began work Monday. She was hired last week to replace Jeffery Ball who the Commission decided not to re-appoint.

She has worked in the Marshall County appraiser’s office the past 20 years in various positions—including as county appraiser since October 2015.

And Kanza Mental Health CEO David Elsbury informed the Commission that Dr. Steve Davies has resigned from the organization’s board of directors. On the recommendation of Elsbury, the Commission approved the appointment of Jackie Wenger to fill Davies unexpired term, ending December 31st, 2017.
