(KLZA)-- Richardson County Commissioners approved the One and Six Year Road Plan following a public hearing on February 21.
During the hearing, Robert Storant requested a bridge on 707 Road be included on the plan since it affects about five landowners who have an interest in the bridge being replaced in the future.
Gayle Swisegood spoke about the condition of 706 Road which calls for improvements to be made. Swisegood said there are driveways entrances on the road that don't meet standards and that water drains from the driveways onto the roadway causing damage to the road.
Commissioners also approved a backup plan for the county computer server suggested by Joe Buckminster with buckIT, who performs IT services for the County. The Board approved the purchase of equipment and system at a cost of $3,152 per month.
Sheriff Rick Hardesty updated the Board on medical services for jail inmates. He presented a letter from Community Medical Center in Falls City regarding continued health care service they will provide. CMC is drafting a new proposal which will be completed in a few weeks.
The Board also approved a resolution to change the number of deputies to be appointed by the Sheriff, eliminating one full-time lieutenant and changing the sergeants from one to two.
