Bruce Folz advised that county <br />was planning on installing two 106" culverts under Cty.11wy. 6. <br />Based on this (6' arched) pipes we have discussed would not <br />be adequateto handle water coming under highway in any <br />mayor rain. Question raised as to how does the vBWD fit <br />into this problem; Suggestion for piers and bridge was <br />made. Another suggestion was to lower drainage area and <br />put in a concrete bottom ditch and allow water to run over <br />it. <br />Mayor suggested 2 alternatives; 1 citizens solve their own <br />problem or 2 petition city to handle the improvement and <br />assess the landowners. <br />
