(KNZA)--The Doniphan County Commission approved a road vacation and a box culvert repair project when they met last week.

Following a hearing, the Commission approved an order vacating roads and alleys located on the plat of Maynard, also known as Troy Junction. According to the unofficial meeting minutes, no objections were heard to the vacation request.

In 1871, the town of Maynard was laid out southwest of Troy. The roads and alleys were platted, but never developed.

County Attorney Charles Baskins said he could not foresee a reason why the county would ever have a need to open the platted streets and alleys.

In other business, the Commission accepted a bid from Urban Construction, of Bendena, for the repair of a box culvert on Coronado Road in the amount of $71,895.

The action was contingent upon the city of Highland making paying to the county in amount of $10,000.

The box culvert will be removed and replaced with a 120 by 6 foot galvanized tube.
